I have to say that what Conan said is really a good idea. If this is not an investigation by Jing, do you have to visit the people around to see if they can provide any clues? Linton really didn't expect it for a while, it seems that bringing Conan here is really beneficial, at least he is more professional than Linton in professional projects.

There were not many neighbors around, so Linton decided to ask about the situation. So after discussing it, Linton took Conan to the neighborhood to inquire, while Miyano Akemi and Haibara stayed here to sort out the information, because there were indeed a lot of information on the scene, and they might have missed something. Help to see.

As for bringing Conan, after all, his observation ability is relatively strong, and he may have discovered something.

So Linton also brought Conan to visit the surrounding neighbors. The first one to visit was the one on their left, and the house number said Ito's house.

This should be a small-bourgeois family. The husband lived here with his wife, and the husband went to work. The wife cautiously opened the door and chatted with Linton and Conan.

Although Linton looked suspicious here, Conan was just a child, and no one would bring a primary school student to commit a crime. So although the other party was vigilant, they still talked about a lot of things.

It's a pity that the other party has not moved here for a long time, just over half a year, so I have never seen Kaneki Ken next door at all. As for the previous owner, they didn't know each other very well either. They bought the house, and the two parties were only in a transactional relationship, and they didn't know where the other party moved now.

Nothing was gained, Linton and Conan soon came to another house next door. I looked at the number plate of this house, and it was still Ito written on it. This surprised Linton a bit, but after thinking about it, Ito should be considered a relatively common surname in Japan, such as Ito Kaiji, Ito Junji, etc., but it was unexpected that the two lived so close together.

Knocking on the door, a forty-year-old lady holding a cat walked out of the room very quickly. She was a little chubby and round, and looked quite elegant with her eyes. And Linton soon understood why the other party opened the door so openly and came out without being afraid of him, because the other party had a badge on his chest.

Linton also knew that some Japanese professionals would wear various badges to show their identities, and the badge worn by Ms. Ito in front of her, and the scale symbol in the middle, indicated that the other party was a lawyer. Probably because of this identity, the other party was not too afraid of anything.

The other party is also very proficient in business. Although it was just chatting, he quickly handed over his business card. Sure enough, it was a lawyer, and his name was Misari Ito. On Linton's side, he said that he was introduced by someone who wanted to buy the house next to Jinmu's house, and he would probably move here to be a neighbor in the near future, so he first visited the neighbors around him.

While talking, of course, Kaneki Ken was mentioned, and Conan next to him also helped guide the topic. Misari Ito here obviously didn't hear anything unusual, and she also talked about Kaneki Ken.

"I do know what that young man said, and I have spoken, but I am not very familiar with it." Ito Misari said, "I saw him go out from nine to five for a while, it should be at work, but after that there was another period I don’t go out much in time, and I suspect that he may have been fired by the company or something.”

Misa Ito talked about the gossip a little proficiently. Being fired by the company is a very big thing in Japan. After all, the company generally works for life. Most people work for a company for their entire lives. It is rare to change jobs. matter. After losing his job and now selling the house to Linton, Misari Ito obviously thinks Kaneki Ken should be bankrupt or something.

Linton did receive some information, that Kaneki Ken had been in this world for a surprisingly long time. You can see that Linton usually stays in a world for more than ten days, or a few months at most. After all, he has to do missions here, and the time for missions is limited.

But Kaneki Ken is different. According to Ito Misari, Kaneki Ken has lived here for at least 2 years, which is somewhat beyond Linton's expectation. Why did he spend so long in this world?

Linton knew that this world was definitely not the other party's main world, because this world was an unexplored world he had taken over, and according to his own situation, the main world should be a low-threat world sent by the system that had completed the investigation. Just can't match. Then why did Ken Kaneki choose to stay here for so long instead of staying in the main world? Is Hui Yuanai so fragrant?

Or Ito Misari didn't notice that the other party had left this world? After all, she also said that although she knew each other, she wasn't that familiar. Maybe the other party seemed to be at home and didn't go out, but she actually went to another world? But no matter how you think about it, Kaneki Ken paid too much attention to this world. Linton was really surprised and valued it so much. It seemed that the world only explored 40% when he took over, and it became 20% after the fusion...

It was a little unclear what was going on with him. But Linton felt that the other party had lived in the house next door for 2 years, and the things left behind should not be just those official documents. So you still have to turn it over again?

While thinking, I chatted with the other party for about ten minutes. Misari Ito here may feel that she doesn't want to continue, so she said that she has to go in and feed the cat. Linton didn't force it, and the two sides bid farewell to each other.

However, when Ito Misa opened the door and was about to go home, Conan here suddenly took a look at the situation inside the door, was a little stunned, and suddenly asked, "Aunt Ito, may I ask that you are the only one in your family?" ?"

"Oh, yes, I'm alone now." Misari Ito replied casually.

"Huh?" Linton, who had already turned his head and left after hearing this, suddenly turned his head to look at Misari Ito in surprise.

Conan was also taken aback, but didn't say anything immediately. But Misari Ito said quickly, "It's nothing, I'm busy first."

As she said that, she also closed the door, but Conan began to frown.

"Hehe..." Linton suddenly laughed softly, but didn't say much, and walked outside, "Let's go, the next one..."

"That...wait for a while..." Conan hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"Oh oh oh, do you see something wrong? Don't be polite, just say it boldly." Linton said with a smile.

Yes, Linton said that, of course he has already discovered the problem. He didn't know what Conan had discovered, because he and Conan had different ideas. Conan probably saw something and found something wrong with Misari Ito's words, so he asked if he was alone.

And Linton sensed through the breath, of course he knew that there was more than one person in the room in front of him, besides Ito Misari who greeted them, there were quite a lot of people in this room, a total of five.

Of course, Linton didn't pay attention at first. The breath perception was just to confirm whether the neighbors and family members were there. If they weren't, they didn't have to knock on the door, right? So Linton just felt that the other party's family was at home, but Misa Ito concealed this matter and replied that she was alone, which is obviously problematic.

Coupled with the fact that Conan was right next to him, although Linton couldn't remember what the case was, he knew that something had happened. So as expected, my guess was right. With Conan, the god of death, how could he not encounter a case?

The funny thing is that the idea of ​​asking the neighbors was brought up by Conan himself, and now he is the one who finds something wrong. This is digging a hole for himself, so happy. Although Linton has already found out that something is wrong, he likes to watch Conan dig a hole and bury himself. It's so much fun.

Although Conan can also pretend to be confused, if he doesn't know anything, Linton will not care. But of course Linton also knew who Conan was. Although he knew that he was digging a hole for himself, he would definitely jump. After all, he was a detective with justice in his heart.

Sure enough, Conan here was a little tangled up, and he was still going to explain this matter to Linton. Although he also knew that this was tantamount to admitting defeat, and that Buxianqiao Town had indeed encountered a case, but he really couldn't do nothing about it.

However, he still doesn't know why Ito Misari concealed the fact that there are still people in the family. He just hopes that this is not a case, and it is best to be a misunderstanding or something.

"I think...some questions..." Conan thought for a while and said, "I still have some questions to ask..."

"It's okay, I can wait for you." Linton smiled happily, and Conan certainly knew why the other party smiled so happily.

Soon Conan here rang the doorbell again, and after waiting for a while, it was Misari Ito who opened the door. She looked at Linton and Conan who appeared at the door strangely: "Is there anything else?"

"Well, Aunt Ito, I'm just a little weird. If I don't ask, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night." Conan here pretended to be curious and said, "Auntie said that there is no one else in your family, but you see there are many people here." footprints..."

Conan pointed to the door, and indeed there were many muddy footprints on the door. Because it rained here just this morning, it is estimated that someone came in in the morning. If it was done before, it must have been cleaned in time.

"Oh, these footprints." Ito Misari panicked a little, but said immediately, "People from the law firm came to me in the morning, my subordinates, they should have left this."

"Oh..." Conan nodded, "But... the footprints are only going in, not coming out. It looks like someone has entered the house, but hasn't come out yet..."
