"Please ask Hattori?" Chen Xing was a little confused.

"That's right, I happened to see a poster in Kyoto on the road, so I thought of the clue of "Chinese Valentine's Day, Kyoto". Will it be related to Kyoto?" Conan said: "So, I specially called Hattori."

Chen Xing looked out the window, "Listen to your tone, it seems like you have gained something?"

"Yeah." Conan chuckled, and then said, "He said there was a fire in Kyoto two years ago, just on the evening of the Chinese Valentine's Day. At that time, two guests died in the hotel called Vega."

If you are happy, you will understand, "Do you think the red marks and English letters on the mahjong plaque may have something to do with the fire?"

"It's because of this doubt," Conan said. "But it's just a guess. Hattori should go to that hotel to investigate. I want to go to the library to see if there is any news about the fire at that time."

Chen Xing thought for a while, "I just happened to be available."

"See you in the library then."

"good."

After making an appointment, Chen Xing got up and walked out.

Toru Amuro opened the door for him and said with a smile: "Is there a new clue to the case?"

Chen Xing nodded.

Amuro touched his chin and said to himself: "But I haven't seen the boss care so much about the past case."

Chen Xing paused.

Anmuro scratched his head and smiled, looking innocent.

"This case is a bit special." Chen Xing seemed to be unprepared for him, and then left after saying this.

Yamuro Toru watched him drive away and frowned slightly, unable to judge the other party's attitude for a moment.

In comparison, the interest in this serial murder case is less than that of Chen Xing's current suspicion.

...

Rice Flower Library.

"The reason for the fire was that the tenant on the fifth floor did not extinguish the cigarette butts, the escape ladder could not be used, and there was another tenant on the sixth floor choked to death by thick smoke."

Conan looked at the news found by the computer in the museum.

"Nako Moto." Chen Xing said softly, this was the name of the deceased, a young girl.

"Living in Mitaka City, Kamiyo." After recording, Conan looked at the people around him.

Chen Xing immediately understood his eyes and turned the car keys around his fingers.

Conan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "This is much faster than my skateboard."

After determining the target, the two of them did not waste any more time and drove directly to the address they had registered before.

It is a house on a simple two-story building with narrow roads far from the city center.

This was the first time Chen Xing came to such a place, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"For most people, having their own house is something that requires a long struggle." Conan said in an old-fashioned manner.

Chen Xing nodded silently. Although he had never experienced these things, he had heard about them in a coffee shop all day long, whether it was the trivialities of life or the difficulties he faced in life.

This is a problem for this country, not a problem for those who are striving to survive.

"Kosuke Mizutani." Conan looked at the sign hanging at the door, and knocked on tiptoe, "Mr. Mizutani, Mr. Mizutani?"

The room was quiet, and Chen Xing felt that there should be no one.

Someone next door opened the door and came out. There was a curly-haired man wearing glasses. "Mr. Mizutani is not at home."

"Then do you know where he went?" Conan asked.

Chen Xing looked at the curly-haired man's hesitant gaze and said without changing his face: "We are the assistants of the famous detective Kogoro Mouri."

"Please come in and talk." The curly-haired man invited.

The room was a straight and cramped one-bedroom apartment. There was only a small folding table on the tatami in the living room. Chen Xing and Conan took off their shoes at the door and sat cross-legged on the tatami.

"My name is Shun Sawamura. I am studying at the Law Institute of Southern University. Please give me some advice." The curly-haired man poured a glass of juice for the two of them with a friendly attitude.

"Thank you." Chen Xing said politely.

Conan took a sip of juice and raised his little face, "But I hope you don't tell me about what we are investigating, because Detective Maori seems to be investigating secretly."

Shun Sawamura said with understanding: "That's why he sent a child like you and a high school assistant."

Conan smiled and said, "What is the relationship between Hirosuke Mizutani and Nako Moto?"

"They are a couple," said Sawamura Shun, "I heard that they elope from Chiba here despite their parents' opposition."

"Elop?" Conan was stunned.

"On the Chinese Valentine's Day last year, they traveled to Kyoto and stayed overnight in that business hotel. But Mr. Mizutani went to find friends who lived in Kyoto alone, and a fire broke out in the hotel during that time." Sawamura Shun shook his head and sighed: "'If I hadn't gone to find friends, Nanako wouldn't have died.' He said this while crying."

Conan was silent for a moment and asked, "What is Mr. Mizutani's profession?"

"He was working everywhere, but since his girlfriend passed away, he seemed to have not worked anymore and had not come back for a while." Sawamura Shun said: "That blow was a big blow to him."

"Where will Mr. Mizutani be now?" Conan asked.

"I don't know." Sawamura Shun shook his head first, then thought of something, "I was wondering if he could go to Chiba because today is his girlfriend's death."

Conan pondered, “So you go to the temple?”

"It's possible, but you should know this if you ask her brother."

"Her brother?"

"Wait a minute." Sawamura Shun stood up and flipped through the bookcase drawer by the window. "Before Nanako's death, her brother had been here several times. If he found out that his sister was in trouble, I hope I could contact him."

"I found this, his brother's business card. And this photo of them, this person is Mr. Mizutani."

A business card of a certified public accountant named Benshang Heshu, and a photo of three people smiling.

Chen Xing picked up the photo and looked at it. Except for Shun Sawamura, the girl above was more smiling than scissors, and the boy next to her looked doting and smiling slightly.

It can be seen from the expressions of the couple that they truly love each other because that sense of happiness cannot be fake.

What Chen Xing didn't realize was that he could understand this feeling at some point.

"Can I copy the phone number?" Conan looked at the business card and his eyes lingered on the neat phone number.

"Of course." Sawamura said with a smile.

...

After saying goodbye, the two of them had just gotten into the car and received a call from Hattori Heiji.

"Kudo, I found it and found it!" The voice on the other end of the phone was very excited. "The names of the seven victims you gave me are exactly the same as the guests who lived on the sixth floor when the fire broke out that year. There are two more guests on the sixth floor..."

"I am Nanoko and Mizutani Kosuke." Conan said.

"What, you already know." Hattori Heiji smacked his lips and said, "Then you hear this again. I heard that the man named Mizutani came to ask the same thing a year ago. It seems that this case must have something to do with the fire two years ago. But if Mizutani was a prisoner, what is his motive? The lady in this regard died in an accident..."

"Hatsuke." Conan interrupted: "How many elevators does that hotel have?"

"Elevator? I remember there seems to be only one."

"How many people can you carry?"

"You wait a moment, I'll be here, and go and have a look now."

After a while, Hattori Heiji said, "There is only seven people, but is there any problem with this? Kudo."
