The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 507: 1 RMB per month...

"However, the words on the base are no longer clear due to the burning of the flames."

"I can only vaguely see that there seems to be a..."

"A word 'rabbit'"

Bai Masong took over Sato Miwako's words and said what she wanted to say.

Sato Miwako nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, it looks like the word 'rabbit'!"

Seeing that Sato Miwako seemed to have not reacted yet, Bai Masong smiled. A red horse, plus the word "rabbit", is there any need to think about the answer?

"The red horse and the word 'rabbit' are probably the warhorse of the legendary general in ancient China - Red Hare."

"Plus there is a vague seat on it, so it is obvious that there is another person on this horse, so..."

"I see!"

Sato Miwako finally realized what was going on.

"This so-called Red Horse statue is not just a red horse. Its entire appearance is actually Guan Yu riding on his Red Hare!"

"If you think about it..."

Sato Miwako frowned slightly.

"That timid man who seems to be running a store seems suspicious."

"Yes."

Bai Ma Song nodded.

Guan Yu is also known as the God of Wealth and War here, so some shops do use statues of Guan Yu to attract wealth.

One more thing…

Kogoro Mori and the others had said before that the timid man seemed to be here to sell his store business roster, and that a key chain would be given as a gift.

As for the statue of Guan Yu, according to the proportions of the Red Hare, even if Guan Yu himself is included, it does not take up much space and is basically the size of a keychain.

So from this perspective, this man is really suspicious!

but......

Bai Masong still believed that the murderer was someone else.

After all, the first statue of Red Hare is completely different from the following three. Either the murderer changed his mind halfway through, or the employer deliberately wanted to take advantage of this feature of the Red Hare.

"Dingle bell...Dingle bell..."

Just as Bai Masong was thinking this, the phone rang.

Sato Miwako also looked over, and Bai Masong picked up the phone.

"Hey, did you figure it out?"

"Okay, pass the information over and we'll go over there now."

"Well, you and Takagi go check on the other three people now. Okay, that's it."

......

Bai Masong hung up the phone.

When Miwako Sato heard Hakuba Matsu say something like "find out everything", she immediately asked,

"Osong, do Officer Shiratori and Officer Takagi have any clues?"

"Um,"

Bai Masong nodded.

"Shiratori and Takagi have already found out the location of the store run by that man, as well as that man's information."

"By the way, they have discovered through their investigation that the statue that man distributed was the statue of Guan Yu."

"Great!"

Miwako Sato looked excited.

"If it looks like this, then we have solved the case right away!"

"not necessarily,"

Bai Masong shook his head.

"Let's go to the man's house first."

........................................

More than ten minutes later, Hakuba Matsu and Sato Miwako arrived at the door of a single-family house.

This single-family house belongs to the timid-looking man who runs a store.

The man's name is Takanori Genda, and the shop he runs is an antique shop located in Haido Town.

In addition, he himself likes ancient Chinese culture very much, so he chose Guan Yu, the God of Wealth, to attract wealth.

Therefore, he made Guan Yu into a keychain, and then took the keychain and brochures to promote his antique shop everywhere.

Bai Masong brought Sato Miwako directly to the door of this single-family house. Sato Miwako also knew the owner of the house, so she naturally understood why they came here.

but......

Sato Miwako looked at Baiba Song suspiciously.

"Ason, do you have the key here?"

"No."

Bai Masong's face was calm and his voice was cold.

However, Sato Miwako couldn't calm down.

"You don't have the key here, how are we going to..."

Before she finished her words, Bai Masong took out a piece of wire from his pocket and skillfully inserted it into the keyhole of the door of the building.

"Click."

The door opened while Sato Miwako was looking confused.

"Come on, let's go in."

Bai Masong turned his head and said lightly to Sato Miwako.

Sato Miwako nodded woodenly, but she really couldn't remain calm in her heart.

No, you are a policeman, not a thief!

Why can you pick locks so skillfully and without any psychological burden?

Bai Masong ignored her thoughts and just arranged the tasks calmly.

Um...actually there's nothing much to arrange.

After all, Baimasong simply felt that something was wrong, so he thought of coming over to search and check it out.

If Mr. Genda Ryuunori was really being used by someone, then there would definitely be traces of that person around him.

The same logic applies to searching his house.

Instead of what Miwako Sato thought, she came here to search for evidence of Genda Takanori's crime.

but......

Bai Masong looked coldly at the letters on the shoe cabinet at the entrance. The top one was the telephone bill for this house.

Because it had been opened, Bai Masong could see the payment notice written inside at a glance - a monthly telephone bill of 30,000 yen.

"Oh, the problem has already occurred."

Bai Masong sneered.

"Eh?"

Miwako Sato came up curiously.

"what is the problem?"

Bai Masong smiled and handed the payment slip in his hand to Sato Miwako.

When Sato Miwako took it and looked at it, she was also shocked.

"30,000 yen a month?!"

"this......"

Miwako Sato looked at Hakuba Matsu, although she knew something was wrong, the number was a little too much.

but......

"This is why?"
