The next morning, Didan Elementary School.

"Devil's horn?" Conan asked in surprise. "Are you sure?"

"And the devil's tail," Thousand Feathers shrugged. "All in all, that's what happened, and it scared Officer Shiratori a lot."

"The tail can be solved with the atavistic phenomenon, but the demon horn ......," Conan pouted. What the hell is going on? ”

"I don't know anyway," Qian Yu shook her head. "I don't know if this case will become an unsolved case again - seriously, the bodies are burned like that, and it is quite difficult to find out the identity of the other party."

"If the victim's family had reported the crime, it might have been easy to find a match for the missing person, but I still don't quite understand what that pair of characters is all about," Conan repeated. "Such a person should be easy for the media to spot and report on, right?"

Just as they were discussing this, the class bell rang.

……

While Conan is communicating with Officer Shiratori of the Metropolitan Police Department as Shinichi Kudo, and Ai is reading a book on the theme of exorcism that he would not normally read, Chiba is drawing—drawing the general structure of the plate armor.

The Metropolitan Police Department told him this morning that they hoped he would be able to give them a rough description of what the armor they saw when he could, as they hadn't noticed any armor missing from the Hell. In such a situation, Chiba's description can greatly help them find the potential real murderer who possesses such armor.

Overall, this is a full-body heavy plate armor. In the head section, the helmet completely encloses the entire head, with a mohican-like ornament on the head and a bump on the nose that looks like something has pushed it up.

The arm part, the shoulder seems to have a heavy shoulder armor, it is worth noting that the shoulder armor of the left arm seems to have a small protrusion compared to the right shoulder armor, it may be that this part of the right shoulder armor is missing for some reason. Further down, the outer arm is equipped with multiple pieces of scale armor that stack on top of each other to gain defense against slashing, while the lower arm has all-encompassing armor, and the wrist part is similar to the protection of the upper arm, which is provided by the armor of the lower arm.

Nothing special on the chest, but there seems to be something attached to the chest or something—a little strange on such a heavy defensive armor.

At the waist, this suit is designed with a complete set of skirt armor to protect the connection parts of the human body, and the front of the armor can even completely cover the vital parts of the male, and a piece of metal armor is also installed on the outer thigh of each side to provide protection against slashing attacks on the outside of the thigh.

The lower limb protection is also fully armed, and the sound of the pointed shoes on the feet, which are slightly upturned upwards, hitting the ground is also obviously made of pure metal

Such a set of heavy plate armor...... After finishing the painting, Chiba smacked his lips.

[The person who can wear such heavy armor to commit a crime and escape, must be a very well-equipped strong labor force. 】

……

At noon, the Metropolitan Police Department.

"This is the armor worn by the murderer that he himself described," Officer Takagi handed the fax to Yusaku Kudo, who had only planned to go to the Medieval Art Museum on this day, but happened to encounter this incident, so he was strongly invited by Officer Shiratori to help solve the case.

"That kid's drawing skills are good," Kudo Yusaku first admired the orderliness of the entire composition at first glance, and then began to carefully observe the details drawn on it. But it didn't take long for him to make a somewhat confused sound. "Huh?"

"What's wrong?" Officer Shiratori hurriedly asked.

"I don't know much about this kid, how is his memory?" Yusaku Kudo asked.

"Very good!" Officer Shiratori barely hesitated. "It's almost unforgettable."

"......" Yusaku Kudo looked back at the composition noncommittally, and finally rolled up the painting. Contact the museum and ask if the armor on display is genuine. If not, where is the real thing. ”

After about three minutes, he got a reply - [All armor is genuine]

"Let's go take a look," Kudo smacked his lips and stood up. "Go over there and take a closer look."

……

This medieval museum is quite special compared to ordinary art museums: not because of its size or anything like that, but because it is actually an art house attached to a Christian psychiatric hospital, which was more than enough for the investment funds set up by the family that established the hospital in the first place, and the patriarch himself was a Catholic, so he used this money to buy another museum next door. It was renovated into a medieval museum with medieval Christian Europe as its core.

However, due to the recession, the investment fund is said to have suffered heavy losses, so the new president of the group, who is the heir to the death of an old Christian believer, has to shrink his expenses, and it is rumored that they will want to subcontract the museum that cannot make money in exchange for funds.

"How did you buy all this armor?" Carefully examining the barrel helmet on the head of the Crusader statue, Yusaku Kudo said with an expression of admiration. "You can see that the people who buy these things must be very knowledgeable."

"Mr. Dissatisfied, you said, in fact, they were all selected by me," said Ochiai, the director of the museum, a sturdy old man who looked to be in his late teens. "I have some talent in armor, so I bought all the armor in the museum with my own hands, without any exceptions."

"Oh, is that so?" Yusaku Kudo nodded with a smirk. "Let me be curious to ask, if you retire in the future, will there be anyone else who can replace you in this area?"

"Uh......" Director Ochiai frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said with a wry smile. I think we might need to hire other specialists, because the kids learned a lot about painting, but there weren't many people who were good enough in terms of military equipment. ”

"It's okay, your body is still strong, and there's still a lot of time to slowly nurture them or someone else you like......" Yusuki Kudo said in a very sincere tone, but before he could finish speaking, a policeman came up to him and whispered to him.

"What?" Yusaku Kudo showed a rather surprised expression after hearing what the other party said.

"That's true, so Officer Shiratori would like you to take a look." The policeman nodded, telling him that he was telling the truth.

"Okay, no problem, I'll be right over." Kudo Yusaku's expression was a little shaken, and he just hurriedly said goodbye to Director Ochiai and left.

Officer Shiratori tells him that he has found the murderer who has confessed and that he is a mentally ill person in a mental hospital.
