Chapter 535: The Man Looking for His Sister
"let's go."
Ze Yu had no intention of staying and chatting with the old man, so he turned around and left.
From beginning to end, he had an expressionless face, as if he didn't take the old man seriously.
"Oh oh..." Several friends followed Ze Yu blankly and left here as well.
The old man ran to the door with a dark face, grabbed the iron gate with both hands, and stared fiercely at the backs of the seven members of the Young Detective Team through the gaps in the railings with eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Damn it, bastard..." The old man gritted his teeth. He seemed furious, but there was a deep worry hidden in his eyes.
Everything he did was discovered by those kids, and he couldn't go on like this.
He must not sit still and wait for death!
The old man narrowed his eyes.
.........
Sawaha led a group of friends on the way to the Mori Detective Agency.
"Xiao Yu, where are we going?" Ayumi asked worriedly, blinking her big eyes.
"Mori Detective Agency." Sawaha replied, "We need to tell Uncle Mori about this."
"Xiao Yu, did that uncle really kill someone?" Yuan Tai was very scared and asked in a low voice.
"Why call him 'uncle'? Call him 'old man'." Ze Yu said first, and then explained: "Even if the old man has not killed anyone, he must have touched a human corpse recently."
"That smell won't lie. No matter how deeply he hides it, it's useless."
"Really?" Yuan Tai showed a nervous expression and said quickly: "If that uncle... old man really killed someone, then let's tell Uncle Maori about it!"
"Xiao Yu." Huiyuan Ai didn't care about the old man. She looked at Ze Yu helplessly and said, "Don't teach Xiaodao-san to say some impolite words."
"Okay." Ze Yu nodded gently and said to Yuan Tai: "Yuan Tai, you can't be so rude."
Yuan Tai was silent for a few seconds, looking confused: "Xiao Yu, isn't this what you taught me to say?"
"Well, don't worry about these details." Ze Yu waved his hand casually.
The group soon arrived downstairs at the Maori Detective Agency, and they saw a man standing there, looking up at the office on the second floor.
This man was not the old man, but a young man with a big nose. His face was also very stern and he looked difficult to get along with.
"Uncle." Conan walked over and asked curiously, "What are you doing standing here?"
The man lowered his head and glanced at Conan.
That cold gaze made Conan tremble subconsciously.
Even Haibara Ai was startled.
In the Junior Detective League, she is in the same situation as Conan, both were once adults, so her perception is more acute.
The other friends were just a group of children and didn't notice anything.
Even Hiroki didn't react much.
But Haibara Ai and Conan are different. They can clearly feel the coldness in this man's eyes.
Haibara Ai felt a little uncomfortable because the man's gaze reminded her of Gin.
The same goes for Conan.
Ze Yu stood up quietly, blocking the two friends, raised his head and showed an innocent smile. "Uncle, are you here to see Detective Maori?" Ze Yu asked with a smile.
Seeing Ze Yu's smiling face, the man's expression eased a little, but he was still very serious: "Little kid, who are you?"
"We are here to visit Uncle Maori." Ze Yu said calmly, "If you want to see Uncle Maori, let us lead the way."
After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether the man agreed or not, and directly led the young detective team up the stairs and came to the door of the detective agency.
The man said nothing, just followed silently.
.........
After a while.
The man sat on the sofa, looked at Uncle Maori opposite him, and said solemnly: "Hello, Mr. Maori, my last name is 'Koda', my sister suddenly disappeared a month ago."
"Do you want me to find your sister?" Uncle Maori asked.
"No, my sister has been killed. I hope Mr. Maori can find evidence to prove that the man is the murderer." Koda said in a deep voice: "His name is 'Yoshiichi Watanuki'."
"Yoshiichi Watanuki?" Yuan Tai's eyes widened and he said in surprise, "Isn't this the old man we just met?"
"Yuanta, don't be rude. Call him 'uncle'." Mitsuhiko reminded him, "Even if he is a murderer."
"I know." Yuan Tai didn't care.
"Did you meet him just now?" Koda and Uncle Maori turned their heads in surprise.
"That's right." Ayumi said, "We just hit the baseball into his yard, but the uncle refused to help us pick up the ball and even refused to allow us to enter his yard."
"Xiao Yu said that the man smelled of death and he had killed someone recently." Hiroki added.
"We came here because of this matter." Huibara Ai continued.
"The smell of death..." Uncle Maori frowned and his expression changed.
Although this sentence sounds ridiculous, Uncle Maori still believes in Xiaoyu's judgment.
His trust in Ze Yu was built up through Ze Yu solving case after case.
After receiving the news from Ze Yu, Uncle Maori's attitude became more serious.
"I knew he wouldn't let you go to his yard." A trace of sadness and anger flashed in Koda's eyes: "Because he buried my sister's body there."
"Huh?!" The friends in the Junior Detective League all widened their eyes in surprise.
"No, the body is not in his yard." Ze Yu said silently: "It is buried in the vacant lot next door."
"What?" Koda frowned and asked, "Little boy, how did you judge it?"
"A feeling." Ze Yu restrained his smile, his face returned to calm, and he said slowly: "We just walked around that open space today, and the old man was standing in the house next door, holding a telescope, and was observing the open space."
"If I say there is nothing wrong here, do you believe it? Do you think he was just bored and had nothing to do, so he spent the whole morning observing there with a telescope?"
"This..." Koda hesitated.
"Why are you hesitating?" Ze Yu glanced at him and said directly, "It's not time to eat yet. We're not hungry yet. Just follow us and check it out."
"Go early and come back early. Hopefully we can get home before dinner time."
