However, Guangyou could not admit to such a thing. Instead, he followed the police officer's line of thought and continued, "I just happened to have nothing to do."

"Seeing that the village police officer couldn't leave for the time being, I wanted to come up and help."

"So sensible!" The older policeman smiled and gave Guangyou and his companion a thumbs up.

If his own brat could be as sensible as this child, he really should go to the shrine and pray properly.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure appeared at the doorway.

The person who arrived was Conan.

"This guy..."

Conan pursed his lips as he looked at Kōyū squatting beside the corpse.

It's not that I want to compete with Guangyou to see who knows the truth first.

It's because Guangyou didn't invite him when he came up.

"They didn't even call me."

If Guangyou knew what he was thinking, he would definitely complain helplessly:

"It wasn't me who made you cough."

He didn't dwell on the question for too long; he wanted to examine the corpse's mouth.

This serves to prove his point.

Although Mitsuyu had already seen it and probably knew the truth, Conan still wanted to take a look.

Then, Conan strode towards the body in the room.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Conan approached Akashi Takeo's body and knelt down.

The corpse's eyes were wide open, and its face was terrifying.

Conan, seemingly unconcerned, moved closer to the corpse, reaching out to try and open its mouth a little so he could see it more clearly.

He was so focused on opening the corpse's mouth with his hands that he didn't notice that there were two police officers at the crime scene besides Guangyou and his companion.

Closer, closer!

At this moment, Conan's hand was very close to the corpse's slightly open mouth.

If he had moved just a little further, about five centimeters closer, he could have put his hand into the corpse's mouth.

Then he could open the corpse's mouth a little and see what was inside.

This way he can prove his idea.

However...
