Chapter 314 Dummy
Why did Uncle Maori do this?

He was reminding the murderer and warning him that he had discovered his plan and asked him not to act rashly.

At the same time, Uncle Maori's warning can also alert the victim who is targeted by the murderer, so that he can be prepared and will not be easily killed by the murderer.

No matter who the murderer is or who the victim is, Uncle Maori’s reminder should still have some effect.

On the one hand, it can make the murderers hiding in the dark feel afraid, and on the other hand, it can make the victims more vigilant.

However, Uncle Maori's advice didn't seem to have much effect.

Dr. Shirai thought he was a psychopath.

Dr. Eto's attitude was very arrogant and he didn't take Uncle Mori's warning to heart at all.

If Dr. Eto is the murderer, then he must be looking down on Uncle Mori as a detective, or he is pretending.

But if he was the victim...

If you are so careless and don't listen to advice, you will definitely lose your life easily.

Uncle Maori had a headache because no one believed what he said. What could he do?

The only person who believed what he said was Inspector Megure.

"Where do you keep the mannequins in your hospital?" Uncle Maori asked. "If the murderer used a mannequin to practice, there would definitely be knife marks on the mannequin."

"Even if that dummy really exists, you won't be able to find it because there are too many dummies in our hospital," said Dr. Shirai.

"Despite this, we still have to give it a try." Uncle Maori said in a deep voice.

"Okay!" Officer Megure nodded and ordered, "Everyone, take action and find the dummy!"

Many police officers were dispatched immediately.

They searched the entire hospital and finally found more than 20 dummies in two hours.

Although many of these dummies were damaged and some had knife wounds on their bodies, none of them had knife wounds on their backs.

What Uncle Maori saw was that someone was standing behind another person and stabbed the person in front of him in the back with a knife in his hand, knocking him down.

If it was a dummy used for training, then there would definitely be signs of injury on its back.

Now, all the dummies are placed together, and none of them has a knife wound on the back.

Doctor Shirai looked calm upon seeing this.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself, "Fortunately, I had the foresight to hide the dummy in advance. With the ability of these policemen, it is impossible for them to find my hiding place."

Mr. Shirai is very grateful now.

If he hadn't hidden the dummy well, it would have been exposed.

It seems that Kogoro Mori should not be underestimated. He was able to infer so many clues just by seeing two black shadows.

He even almost exposed Dr. Shirai.

He is truly a famous detective!

Doctor Shirai was alert in his heart, but on the surface he smiled and said, "Mr. Maori, look, you didn't find the dummy, did you?"

"So, you must be in an abnormal mental state. You didn't relax well, so you are dazzled and see things wrongly."

"In fact, there was no murder case at all, and there was no dummy used for training."

Uncle Maori frowned.

Even Inspector Megure looked over at him and asked, "Brother Maori, could there be something wrong with your reasoning?"

"Or did you really see it wrong?"

Although Inspector Megure trusted Uncle Maori very much, he couldn't help but question it at this time. "This... doesn't make sense!" Uncle Maori said with a headache: "I suspect that the dummy was hidden."

"But none of our people found the dummy?" Inspector Megure was a little dissatisfied.

Uncle Maori means that the people brought by Inspector Megure don’t have the skills, so they can’t find the dummy hidden by the murderer?

"I..." Uncle Maori hesitated for a while, not knowing what to say.

"Brother Maori, you should have a good rest." Officer Megure said, and then said to the policeman next to him: "Let's go back."

"Yes." Everyone nodded.

Uncle Maori wanted to keep them, but he couldn't find a reason and could only remain silent.

Inspector Megure and the others left.

Dr. Shirai smiled and said, "Well, I'll go back and rest as well."

"It's really troublesome to encounter such a thing in the middle of the night..." He joked as he left.

Uncle Maori was left standing alone in the corridor. He remained silent and finally shook his head.

He believed that his reasoning was absolutely correct and that the dummy must have been hidden.

However, even Inspector Megure and his colleagues couldn't find the existence of the dummy, and Uncle Mouri is alone, so what can he do?
What else can I do?

No!

Uncle Maori's eyes were burning with anger and ambition.

As a famous detective, how can I admit defeat to a murderer hiding in the dark?
I will never give up!
Uncle Maori cheered himself up, then started searching the hospital alone, specifically looking for those remote corners.

Until the next day, when the sun rises...

Uncle Maori searched all night long, but not only did he fail to find the dummy, he also exhausted himself.

Finally, he fell asleep in the corridor and was helped back to the ward by Xiaolan who came rushing over.

.........

In the ward.

"Dad!" Xiaolan gritted her teeth and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? Why do you always cause trouble for everyone?"

Facing his daughter's questioning, Uncle Maori said weakly: "But I really didn't see it wrong..."

"Everyone says you're wrong. Even Dr. Shirai and Inspector Megure think so. Could it be that they're all lying to me?" Xiaolan snorted unceremoniously.

"Xiaolan, they don't believe me, so you won't believe me either?" Uncle Maori's eyes became serious.

Xiaolan hesitated.

Conan, who was standing aside, kept smiling and interrupted: "I think we should trust Uncle Maori."

"I second the motion." Ze Yu nodded cutely and said, "Although Uncle Maori is confused, he is not blind. We can trust him."

"Kid, who are you calling confused?" Uncle Maori waved his fist and said angrily, "I am the famous detective, Maori Kogoro!"

Ze Yu smiled and did not comment.

In the end, Xiaolan nodded and said to Uncle Maori: "Well... okay, I believe you."

After all, this confused detective is her father!

As a daughter, if I don’t trust my father, who else can I trust?
Uncle Maori was very pleased, and then said: "Xiaolan, I think we can split up and each person will be responsible for finding a corner in the hospital."
