249. Amber Unicorn
Jiroki Suzuki came up with an idea: "Except for the children, thoroughly check everyone's faces here."
Officer Nakamori nodded, "Before this, there is one thing that needs to be clarified."
"What's the matter?" Suzuki Jiroki said in confusion.
"That's how Kidd stole the amber kirin horn from the kirin statue."
Officer Nakamori frowned and said, "Short after the power outage, the four keys of different colors you nailed into the wall. If they were not inserted into the keyholes at the four corners of the Buddhist temple and turned at the same time, they would not be able to see the image of the Kirin hidden in the pillars.
Even if Kidd copied the spare key in a certain way, how did he do it in the darkness where he could not see the keyhole?"
"If you want to talk about lighting, don't these little ghosts have it too? It's the lighting on their watches." Suzuki Jiroki walked to the people of Fenta and others, "They said they could watch the pedestal again. Maybe that kid Kid relied on this light..."
"We didn't turn on the lights at that time." Mitsuhiko opened her arms and made a blocking move. "Although we did cover the keyhole like this, Haibara explained that even if the power outage is not possible, the lighting cannot be turned on."
Kazuki looked at Jiroki Suzuki who was thinking, "It's true."
"That's it." Jiroki Suzuki frowned.
"So, hasn't anyone come when covering the keyhole?" asked Officer Nakamori.
"Yes." Mitsuhiko nodded with certainty.
"Hey? This keyhole is a little brighter." Officer Nakamori said, squatting down, covering his hands and aiming at the keyhole.
"Fluorescent paint." Chen Xing also leaned over.
Officer Nakamori subconsciously glanced at him.
"Police officer, there is also fluorescent paint in the keyhole here." The policeman on the other side shouted.
"So, is it possible..." Officer Nakamori quickly walked to the place where the key was hung, and reached out to cover it. In the shadow, the green fluorescence at the front of the key was clearly visible.
"Sure enough, the tops of the four keys are also coated with fluorescent paint. It seems that they were stained when inserted into the keyhole."
"So, relying on the faint light of the keyhole..." Suzuki Jiroki opened his mouth.
"Yes, I handed the keys to my accomplices in the dark, inserted them into the glowing keyhole and turned them at the same time, easily stealing the "Kilin Corner"." Police Officer Nakamori said, turning his head suddenly, and looking at the old man beside him, "Yes, is it right, the thief of Mr. Kid?"
"Ah?" Suzuki Jiroki was stunned, "Are you talking about me?"
"Ha." Officer Nakamori smiled disdainfully and said confidently: "Isn't that the case? Kidd is not using a spare key, but this set of keys. This is an indisputable fact.
In this way, in order to use the key quickly, the metal strips nailed into the wall were nailed shallowly. After using the key, they were nailed back into the wall. This is the only possibility."
Jiroki Suzuki's eyes twitched and gritted his teeth and said, "Then try to pull this metal strip first, it won't be able to pull it off easily!"
"Isn't it just that when the nail is back, I'm nailing tightly?" Officer Nakamori curled his lips.
"If you must say that, just search my body." Suzuki Jiroki said simply: "If I were Kidd, there must be a "kirin horn" hidden on my body."
"I will do this even if you don't say that." Officer Nakamori grinned.
"Wait for a moment." Haibara Ai said, "Is it OK to leave the body search task to our teenage detective team?"
"What?"
"If Suzuki Consultant and Officer Nakamori were Kidd and his accomplices, it is very likely that he would pretend to search and get away with it." Haibara Ai said.
"It's not wrong at all. If it were us, you can feel at ease." Yuan Tai agreed.
"Because we can never be Kidd's accomplices." Azumi smiled.
"That's true." Officer Nakamori touched his chin.
"There are others who need to cooperate with the body search, isn't it a problem?" Haibara Ai looked at the police officers in the Buddhist temple and the three staff members of the TV station.
"Of course." Shinkai Shuli nodded.
"Then the first one..." Haibara Ai looked at Keiyo next to him, "It's time to start with you."
...
"Due to special reasons, the next program has changed. Please wait for a moment."
With the switch of TV broadcasts, several children from the Youth Detective Group began to search the adults present with serious expressions.
Chen Xing made a good example for the adults. After taking off his coat, he let Mitsuhiko touch him for a while.
"No." Mitsuhiko breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, it is still pleasing to eliminate the suspicion of people familiar with them.
Haibara Ai didn't feel that Chen Xun could be replaced. At this time, while he was wearing his coat, he asked, "Did you see clearly when the thief Kid just now?"
Chen Xing tied the buttons and said without changing his face: "No, the room was too dark at that time."
Haibara Ai looked at him carefully for a while before nodding, as if he believed it.
On the other hand, Azumi and others quickly completed the body search, and the final result was shocking.
"After searching everyone, the missing "Kirin Corner" was still not found?" Suzuki Jiroki confirmed.
"Yes, in order to prevent someone from secretly putting it on us, we just searched our clothes." Mitsuhiko said: "And Conan's pockets were searched, but they didn't find it."
Jiroki Suzuki frowned, "It's strange. The lattice of the window is specially designed to be unable to pass through the width of the "kirin corner". Even if Kid's accomplices guarded outside to meet, they would not be able to take it out smoothly."
"So, the monster thief Kid had just run away." Officer Nakamori said while wearing a suit: "Hurry up and open the door, let's chase that guy!"
"But..." Suzuki Jiroki hesitated for a while. After all, in his heart, he always suspected that the monster thief Kidd, his accomplices, and "Kirin Kok" were still in this Buddhist temple.
"What do you think?" Haibara Ai asked the people around him.
"What Officer Nakamori said makes sense." Chen Xing said.
When Ai Haibara heard this, he couldn't help but look at him suspiciously, "Although it was natural to think that the monster thief Kid had left here, he still couldn't figure out why he was so confused about Kudo?"
"Maybe I think that kid is a troublesome opponent." Chen Xing said: "After all, Kidd lost to him the previous few times."
"That's it, but if you let your old opponent end up like this, won't you get the pleasure of succeeding in front of him?" said Ai Haibara.
Chen Xing smiled in surprise, "Indeed, with Kid's style, it's really strange to do this."
