Transmigrated to the world of Detective Conan.

Since I was young, I've admired homicide detectives… Uncle Mouri, could you tell me about some of the difficult cases you encountered as a homicide detective?"

Lin Yi asked with a serious expression, full of curiosity.

"Ahem…"

Mouri Kogoro coughed twice, took a breath, and said softly, "According to the homicide detective code, I can't disclose case details to unrelated people."

"Really… That's a shame," Lin Yi showed a disappointed face.

"No! However!" Mouri Kogoro raised his voice, "So many years have passed, and I'm no longer a detective… Plus, you're Ran's boyfriend, so I can share some things from back then… but don't tell anyone, got it?"

"I promise, I won't tell a soul!" Lin Yi raised his hand and immediately swore.

Mouri Kogoro took a puff of smoke, exhaled a cloud, squinted his eyes, looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle, and began reminiscing.

"I remember it was a night seven years ago, around seven o'clock, just when it was getting dark. I had just finished a homicide case and was heading back to the station to hand in some documents. After that, I planned to go home, take a shower, and enjoy a refreshing cold beer, when suddenly, Inspector Matsumoto called me to his office and asked me to lead a team to a nightclub where there had been an accidental homicide…"

"At the time, I had no idea the background of that accidental homicide was much more complicated than I imagined."

Lin Yi, taking control of the conversation, began steering it in a direction Mouri Kogoro could follow.

And of the things Mouri Kogoro could talk about, there weren't many: alcohol, horse racing, Yoko Okino, and work.

Alcohol and horse racing were out of the question, considering he was only 17; it wouldn't be appropriate to talk about those.

Talking about idols wasn't suitable either, after all, he was Ran's boyfriend, and this was their first time meeting, so he didn't want to leave a bad impression.

As for his work… Mouri Kogoro's detective work over the years mainly consisted of looking for cats, dogs, and lovers, and he didn't seem like someone who enjoyed reading, so he probably didn't even know how to boast.

So Lin Yi had to guide the conversation toward his previous profession, starting with his time as a homicide detective.

And as expected…

Lin Yi hit the mark!

Talking about his career as a homicide detective made Mouri Kogoro's eyes light up, and he started talking non-stop, almost eager to share all his achievements as a detective, so Lin Yi would know how impressive he had been in his day.

If he hadn't retired, today the chief of police would carry the surname Mouri!

Initially, Lin Yi thought Mouri Kogoro might not have many stories to tell.

However, listening carefully, he realized Mouri Kogoro still had a few skills.

"When I arrived at the scene, the crime scene had already been disrupted… but there was nothing to be done; after all, it was a nightclub, and many people were under the influence of drugs."

"When a crime scene is destroyed, many clues are lost…

"The investigation proceeded in an orderly manner. I spoke to witnesses and gathered details of what had happened from their accounts."

"The sequence of events was quite simple: two drunks started fighting, and one ended up killing the other."

"This kind of incident… was common at the nightclub, and at the time, we didn't think much of it; we simply thought it was a case of accidental homicide."

"However, later… I discovered something at the scene that contradicted my initial reasoning… Lin Yi, do you know what it was?"

Mouri Kogoro even started interacting with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi thought seriously and responded, "Did you find a death message?"

"No…" Mouri Kogoro shook his head calmly and said, "It was the murder weapon… the weapon was a kitchen knife. How does a kitchen knife appear in a nightclub?"

"When I saw that kitchen knife, I realized it was an intentional homicide… so I immediately went to the nightclub's kitchen to confirm."

"And sure enough, that kitchen knife didn't belong to the kitchen; the killer had brought it…"

"We tried to identify the killer through the security cameras, but the killer was very clever and chose to act in a blind spot of the cameras…"

"Just when the police were feeling hopeless, I suddenly smelled a perfume on the victim's clothes… a woman's perfume."

"So, I gathered all the women present, and by comparing the perfume scents, I identified more than ten suspects… I couldn't determine if the killer was among them, as the scene was very chaotic, and the killer likely fled after committing the crime."

"However, there's a high chance the killer returned to the crime scene after committing the crime."

Lin Yi cooperatively asked, "Why is that?"

"Because the killer would want to check if they left any evidence, see if there's an opportunity to destroy it, or even pretend to be a witness and offer false leads to misdirect the police investigation…"

I must say, a serious Kogoro Mouri looks quite cool.

At that moment, Ran came in. She was very happy to see Lin Yi getting along with her dad!

"Come on, have some tea… and also some freshly cut melon."

After setting the things down, Ran said, "Dinner will be ready soon, just wait a little longer."

Kogoro Mouri started eating the melon, nodding his head and saying, "This melon is good… very sweet, thank you for the gesture."

Did you see that?

After Kogoro Mouri had a good impression of Lin Yi, his attitude completely changed; he even said, "You went to some expense."

"It's the least I could do… Among more than ten suspects, how will they determine if the culprit is among them?" Lin Yi played his role as a spectator well, bringing the topic back to the case.

"It's very simple." Kogoro Mouri smiled confidently and said, "Let the waiter and the bartender identify them!"

"Since this is a cold-blooded murder case, it means the culprit knew the victim."

"The culprit chose to strike in a security camera's blind spot, meaning they frequented the place and knew where the blind spot was."

"As expected, among the more than ten suspects, there were three women who knew the victim."

"However, these three women claimed they hadn't interacted with the victim that night…"

"It's a shame… in the end, I caught the culprit. Do you know how I caught the killer?" Mouri Kogoro said proudly.

Lin Yi guessed, "Through the fingerprints on the murder weapon?"
