“Wangwang!!”
The Akita dog seemed to understand what Inubushi Yukihime said and barked twice in response.
"You did something wrong, Yuki!"
At this moment, the gate of Inufu Castle suddenly opened, and a short-haired woman walked out with her hands on her hips: "When a dog is barking, you can't just call its name or even touch its head!
If you do that, it will misunderstand that you are praising its behavior, and it will become even more aggressive next time!
How many times do you want me to tell you this before you remember it?
"I'm sorry...Sister Kouzi..." Inufushi Yukihime looked at the woman and apologized quickly.
"By the way, what's the matter with you here, Mr. Criminal?"
Inufushi Koko looked at Tang Ze and the other two standing by and said, "Before, a criminal investigation also came to investigate. They confirmed that it was an accident and went back to close the case."
"The main reason is that another case has occurred, and this time the victim is Mr. Shinichi." Tang Ze explained, "So we want to come here to understand the situation."
"What? Mr. Shinichi?" Inufushi Koko was shocked when he heard this: "How could this happen?"
Seeing this, Inufushi Yukihime hurried over to the other party and whispered to Inufushi Koko what she had learned before.
"So that's how it is. I'm glad you're okay. Thank you all for your help." Inufushi Kaozi bowed to the three of them and expressed his gratitude.
"It's okay."
Tang Ze waved his hand, looked at the other party and asked, "By the way, I want to ask about Mr. Shinichi. Is there anything worth your attention?"
"Come to think of it, Mr. Shinichi did say before he left this place that someone seemed to be using the cursed 'Flame Demon Dog' to wipe out the Inufushi family."
At this point, Inufushi Koko stopped denying it and said, "But curses don't exist at all, so please don't worry.
Even if it was Mr. Shinichi, he was murdered, right? This proves it was a human act, not some fictitious "demon dog," right? "
"That's right." Tang Ze smiled and praised, "Ms. Kaozi, you are very rational."
"Of course, I will never agree with such rumors." Inufu Koko snorted coldly, "Besides, if such words were to reach my adoptive mother's ears, she would be extremely sad."
"Is Ms. Sashin also living here?" Hearing Inufushi Koko's words, Tang Ze couldn't help but ask: "I thought she should be living in the hospital."
"My foster mother lives here."
Inubushi Yukihime said this with a somewhat depressed look on her face: "She is simply in a coma the entire time, and there is basically no way for us to communicate."
"Anyway, everyone, please follow me into the house." Inufushi Koko motioned for everyone to follow her inside: "I will take you to visit my mother."
Everyone followed Inufushi Koko into the castle and was led by her to Ms. Sasomi's room.
Although it was called a visit, in reality he just went to the other party's room to look at the unconscious Ms. Sashin, and there was no way to communicate.
"She suffered a cerebral embolism and has been in this condition since she fell ill last month."
After learning the purpose of everyone's visit, the doctor of the Inufushi family examined Ms. Sashen and explained her condition to Tang Ze and others:
"In fact, given her current physical condition, hospitalization is the best way, but she is very old, so we finally decided to stay at home to take care of her."
At this point, the middle-aged man with glasses said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Inufushi Chiaki, and I currently work at Inufushi Hospital."
"Judging from your name, you seem to be one of the eight adopted sons of the Inufushi family?" After hearing the man's self-introduction, Tang Ze said with a smile, "I thought you were the family doctor of the Inufushi family."
“I am currently holding this position.”
Inufushi Chiaki smiled and said, "The hospital where I used to work suddenly closed down. I didn't know what to do next, and it was my adoptive mother who reached out and saved me."
"I wonder if Ms. Sashin ever mentioned who she thought was the fake adopted son or daughter?" Hattori Heiji asked.
"That uncle named Shinichi is actually the imposter among us, right?"
At this moment, the wooden door of the empty room was pulled open, and a bearded man in his thirties said indignantly, "The traitor who was the first to flee the Inufushi family because he was afraid of the unfounded rumors of the "demon dog"!"
"What are you talking about, Mr. Zenya!"
Hearing the other party's blunt questioning, Inufushi Koko couldn't help but scold: "Mr. Shinichi was attacked today and is currently in the hospital, his life hanging by a thread.
Besides, this is in front of my adoptive mother, don't say such rude words, she will be sad if she hears it!"
"She won't hear it." Inufu Zen also smiled nonchalantly: "She has been sleeping all the time anyway and has no consciousness."
"It seems there's one person missing."
Conan looked around at the people around him and said, "Aside from the two who died, there's also Mr. Shinichi who's unconscious in Tokyo.
The Inufushi family should have five adopted children, but here are only Miss Yukihime, Miss Koko, Mr. Chiaki, and Mr. Zenya, one is missing."
"Excuse me, where did that person go?" Hattori Heiji's expression became more serious.
After all, the criminal had committed a crime in Tokyo before, and their itinerary was unknown, so they naturally wouldn't rush back.
If the other party returns leisurely, then the person who has not arrived will be highly suspicious.
"The one who hasn't arrived yet is Miss Zuoji." Inufushi Koko, the older and more distant leader, explained, "She went to a dry cleaner far away to pick up the dry-cleaned clothes she had left there."
