Conan: Silence in the Dark

"The stalking behavior comes from one's own desire for the person being followed, and judging from the photos, it may be a fan of Miss Yaye. And the photos did not prevent the appearance of these locations in the office, which I suspect was done by insiders. Shiratori pointed to the place where the photo appeared on the map of the office on the wall.

"You have a point, not just insiders. Non-staff who can freely come and go in various places are also suspicious, and I think that blazing kid is possible. That's right, it's his act to get the lovely Miss Yaye!" Kogoro had a murderer's expression, and at the end he had a tendency to laugh out loud.

"So what exactly is the plan?" Yamamura asked Shiratori.

"We don't have many clues, and the scope is too big to investigate one by one. So I'm going to create an opportunity to leave Miss Yaye alone, and we're in an ambush in the shadows, waiting for the killer to show up. "

"Isn't it too dangerous?" Miyoshi was still very worried about Yaye alone.

"We'll be waiting in the dark, don't worry. I'll leave the safety of Miss Yaye's to me!" Yamamura leaned over and patted his chest to reassure.

"Well, in order to make the prisoners comply, we need to create the illusion of leaving. Shiratori continued.

"I think if Sister Yaye says in front of everyone that she wants to see the prisoner, the prisoner should be in submission. The photo shows a very strong sense of possessiveness, and it must be that Sister Yaye attaches great importance to it. If Sister Yaye said that he wanted to see him, I think he would have been tempted to meet Sister Yaya even if he knew that he was in danger, after all, it was the request of the person he (the prisoner) valued. Xiao Jing analyzed from a psychological perspective based on the patterns on the photos.

"That's right, Xiao Jing is right. Mr. Miyoshi, what do you think, Miss Yaye?" Shiratori asked Miyoshi and Yaya for advice.

"That's all there is to it. "Miyoshi thought about it, and there was no other way, and if the matter was not solved, it would be better to be frightened.

"Okay. Yaye nodded in agreement.

After that, Miyoshi gathered everyone in the name of preparing for tomorrow's performance, and Hiratsu, who was a fan representative, also followed.

"Tomorrow is a very important performance, and I know that everyone is in a bad mood these days because of the strange letters. But for the sake of tomorrow's performance, we have to do our best, for the sake of the office, and for the sake of Yaye, we must not make any mistakes!" Miyoshi and the others confirmed tomorrow's work and said some words of encouragement.

"Thank you for your help, I am inseparable from your help. I'm going to work hard for tomorrow's performance, and even though I received a strange letter, I'm sure the sender likes my songs, and I'd love to see him if I could. So don't be burdened, let's work together for tomorrow!" Yaye also said what he had prepared in advance.

"Did Conan find anything unusual?" Xiao Jing asked Conan, who was observing everyone.

"Not yet. However, I took a look at the photo, and the prisoner was probably not an ordinary staff member, after all, even in Miss Yaye's special lounge. I just went to see that her room is at the back of the costume room and the props room, and there are two surveillance cameras, so you can see who has been in and out of her room on the surveillance tape. Later, if the prisoner doesn't show up, I'm going to have the Shiratori Police Department investigate. Conan didn't see any clues from the crowd, but he found clues from other places.

"I think it's Chihei or Mr. Kikuno, just when Miss Yaya said she wanted to meet the prisoner. The faces of both of them changed to varying degrees, but they were forced to be pressed down by themselves. Mr. Hiratsu just had an indignant expression. Xiao Jing had been observing the three people she thought were suspicious.

"But in the words of Chihei and Hiratsu, there is a motive. What is Mr. Kikuno's motives?".

"Possessive!".

"Just this?".

"Isn't that enough?".

"This motivation is a bit ......

."

"Possessiveness is a scary thing, for example, you subconsciously think that it should only belong to you and be hostile to everyone who wants it. There will even be an impulse to destroy that I can't get and you don't want to get. "

"Uh... I know this, but I don't think Kikuno has any special feelings for Miss Yaya from Miyoshi and Miss Yaye. Mr. Miyoshi said that he has always been serious about clothing like this. "

"Well, who knows. The young lady shrugged her shoulders and said that she did not want to continue discussing such pointless issues with Conan.

"Even if you're right. Then he sent Conan away with a look that you can't help it.

Hey, why did you make it look like I'm wrong?

Then Shiratori, Kogoro and the others said goodbye and left in front of everyone, and then everyone once again determined the preparation procedures such as props and costumes that they would need tomorrow, and they all left work one by one. And Yaye, as always, planned to leave last, and Miyoshi, who was supposed to leave last like Yaye, also left early in front of everyone because of something.

"Will the prisoners really come over?" Kogoro and his party looked out the window as they huddled into a van used by the office to carry props. From this shadowy corner, you can roughly see the distance from the underground exit of the office to Miss Yaye's car.

"Anyway, it's just a try, and we won't lose anything if we don't come, but we'll continue to investigate tomorrow. Xiao Jing didn't look forward to this kind of thing that she was not sure of in the first place. Even her attention did not look out the window, but leaned back in her chair.

It's so sleepy, and the child's body is a trouble. Compared with Conan, who was still looking out the window energetically, Xiao Jing was already sleepy.

"It's coming!" Kogoro reminded everyone that Miss Yaya had come out of the office.

Yaye walked over as usual, and the suspect did not show up until Yaye got into the car.

"It doesn't seem to work. Kogoro was disappointed and tried to open the car door.

"No, there it is. It's just that he didn't appear in front of Yaya. The sharp-eyed Conan immediately saw Shiratori rushing out of the car on the opposite side, and Murayama stumbling out. But it can be seen that they have discovered something.

Conan immediately opened the car door and ran over.

"Although I was prepared, I didn't expect the stalker to be two people. "Out of the shadow behind the pillar is Blazing Flat and Heijin.

"Mr. Chipei, Mr. Hiratsu!" Miyoshi, who came over later, called out their names in surprise.

"What stalkers, we're not stalkers. We know that Miss Yaye will protect Miss Yaye after work alone today!" Chihei argued.

"Yes, yes. Otherwise, how could I be with this person!" Hiratsu also said. However, the words were also ambiguous, and the two immediately quarreled again.

"What do you say, you are! You've been pestering Yaye in the name of fans!".

"Nonsense, I'm protecting Yaye on behalf of the will of the fans is to prevent people like you who don't have good intentions towards Yaye from approaching her!".

"It's useless for you to argue, now everyone has been stolen! With my detective intuition for many years, the scope is that you are right! My previous reasoning is really not wrong, hahahaha. "After reasoning, there is no one who laughs out loud.

In this way, Shiratori and Yamamura took the two of them back to make inquiries. Miyoshi, who breathed a sigh of relief, also said goodbye and went home, and Kogoro and Yaya also said hello and prepared to go back.

"Something always feels wrong?" Conan was still thinking about what had just happened in the car.

"They're not lying. Not catching anyone is to be expected. Xiao Jing looked out the window and didn't say anything about not catching the prisoner. Through Belmode's training, these simple truths and falsehoods can be distinguished, and the relationship between those two people is really very bad, and they can only come together because of the common worry about Yaye.

Conan still believes in Xiao Jing's words, although he doesn't know why Xiao Jing is so sure. But if those two people are not murderers, is it really Hikaru Kikuno?

"Miss Yaye is also very sad that this kind of thing happened after the death of two important people. It must be very lonely to live alone, she is so strong! I don't even know what to do if it is me. Xiaolan said admiringly.

"Wait, Sister Lan, is Sister Yaye living alone now?" Conan seemed to have caught something.

"Yes, I originally lived with my assistant. But after the death of her assistant, she began to live alone, and the new assistant arranged by Miyoshi seems to have also been rejected by her. "

"No, uncle, call Mr. Miyoshi. The prisoner did not intend to see Aya when she came out, but perhaps to see her when Aya came home. If that's the case, Miss Yaya is in danger!" Conan immediately shouted to Kogoro after he understood it.

"Hey, is it Mr. Miyoshi?Where is Miss Yaye's address? Don't ask Miss Yaya if she is in danger now!" Kogoro immediately dialed Miyoshi's phone and knew Yaye's address.

"Mr. Driver doesn't need to go to the hotel for the time being, please hurry to this address now, the sooner the better!" Kogoro handed the address he had just written down to the taxi driver.

"No problem, did Mr. Mori solve another case?" the driver apparently knew Kogoro through media such as newspapers.

"Ah, you know me, too? It's an honor, yes, I just solved a stalking case and now I need to rush over and catch the prisoner. Kogoro naturally took the credit for himself.

"Okay, sit down!" said the driver, turning in the direction of the intersection in front of him, and the speed of the car increased.

The rising speed was naturally perceived by Xiao Jing, who was already a little sleepy, so that Xiao Jing's drowsiness disappeared in an instant.

"Hey, can you stop tossing like this?" Xiao Jing sighed and turned her head to look at Conan, don't want to sleep so peacefully today.

"Huh, is it my fault?" Conan looked at Xiao Jing's eyes, and only felt that he was wronged, .......
