Chapter 459: Glowing Hammer
There was no more information in the surrounding stores, so everyone came to the last Beihu Bridge.
Maori Kogoro put his hands in his pockets, looked at Zhugu Qiao who was clinging to the railing and said helplessly: "This is the last bridge, but judging from your appearance, you still don't remember anything, right?"
Zhu Gu Qiao looked into the distance through the railing in silence. He was trying hard to recall, but he just couldn't remember.
Youya touched Zhugu Qiao's head and said softly, "Xiaoqiao, still can't remember?"
Zhugu Qiao nodded and looked at Youya aggrievedly: "I'm sorry..."
Youya rubbed his head and said, "It's okay. Why don't you tell me in detail what you saw at that time?"
Zhu Guqiao nodded vigorously: "Okay!"
He pinched his fingers and recalled carefully: "I was sitting in my father's car at the time, the road was very congested, and I was looking out the window the whole time.
Suddenly I saw a black car parked on the side of the road, and then a man wearing a hat stood by the bridge with a big bag at his feet..."
Everyone listened attentively.
Zhugu Takumi looked at Yuya, who smiled and encouraged her, "Very good, keep going."
Mao Lilan, who was watching this scene from behind, whispered to Miyano Shiho, "Mio-chan, do you think Yuu is also good at coaxing children?"
Miyano Shiho nodded in agreement: "Indeed."
Conan also thought of those troublesome kids in the Junior Detective League. He was obviously troubled by them, but they were very well-behaved and obedient in front of Yuya... What went wrong?
Mao Lilan smiled and said: "From this point of view, Yuya will definitely be a good father in the future."
Miyano Shiho was stunned, her eyes wandered for a moment, and she didn't know what she was thinking of, her ears suddenly turned red, she lowered her head and whispered: "Or, maybe."
Mao Lilan immediately smiled like an auntie.
Conan looked as if he had seen a ghost. No, could this freak of science be shy? He thought she would just take samples from him with a scalpel and an evil smile on her face.
Encouraged by Youya, Zhugu Qiao swallowed his saliva and continued, "Then I saw that person pick up the bag on the ground and throw it under the bridge. At that time, a head appeared from inside, and I saw Brother Saw."
"Then the man fumbled around on his body, found a lighter, lit a cigarette and threw it away before getting into a car on the side of the road."
"When he got in the car, I saw the nail snake pattern on his hand."
Yuya nodded slightly, stroking his chin and asked, "Where's that glowing hammer? What does it look like?"
Zhu Guqiao tilted his head: "Emmmm, it's a hammer... Oh, yes, that hammer is upside down! It's very big, and there's something flashing on the top of it!"
Yuya frowned slightly, "Upside down and vertical? Very big? Flashing?"
"Yes!" Zhu Guqiao nodded vigorously.
The others all looked confused. What kind of hammer was this?
Yuya thought for a moment and asked, "What shape is that hammer?"
Zhu Guqiao hummed for a while and said, "It looks a bit like a boat."
Small boat? Yuya nodded slightly. There are many shapes of hammers, some are cylindrical, and some are in the shape of a small boat with a nail puller. What Zhuya Qiao said should be the latter.
He stood up and looked around, his eyes quickly falling on the building on the other side of the river.
It was already night time and everyone in the building had left. Only the elevator lobby was still lit.
Yuya's eyes flickered slightly. What Zhuya Qiao saw should not be a real hammer. Children have rich imaginations and can easily describe some indescribable things they see as something they can understand.
It was night time, and it was dark around except for the lights of the cars. The glowing hammer must have been some glowing objects at the time that happened to form a hammer-like shape.
The light of the building is rectangular from top to bottom, which can form the handle of a hammer. What about the hammer head? What is the hammer head?
Wait, a bold idea flashed through Yuya's mind, Zhugu Qiao said that the hammer head was flashing, could it be...
Yuya looked at Mao Lilan: "Ran, do you have a photo of the coffee pot advertising car?"
Mao Lilan was stunned and nodded, "Yes." Then she took out her mobile phone and pulled out the photos.
Yuya leaned over to take a closer look, then turned his head to look at the building in the distance, a smug smile on his face: "I see, I know what the hammer Xiaoqiao saw is."
As soon as Conan saw Yuya's actions, he quickly thought of the answer in his mind.
He immediately felt frustrated - no, how did he know the answer so quickly? Is the gap between him and me so big?
The others asked Youye in confusion: "What is it?"
Yuya raised his hand and pointed at the building in the distance and said, "It was already dark at that time. What Xiaoqiao saw was not a hammer that glowed and flashed, but a hammer-like shape made of some glowing things."
"Look at that building. Don't the lights form the shape of a handle?"
Everyone turned around and looked at it, revealing expressions of sudden realization: "It does look alike, but where's the hammer head?"
"The hammer head is even simpler," Youya said, holding up Mao Lilan's cell phone, "Look at this."
Everyone came over to take a look and saw that it was the coffee pot advertising car mentioned earlier.
"Look at this coffee pot. Doesn't it look like a hammer in the shape of a boat?"
Everyone suddenly realized: "So that's it!"
“Then, it’s about the nail snake pattern.”
"Hmm? You know this pattern too?"
Youye nodded: "Didn't Xiaoqiao say that he saw the pattern when that person left? So it's obvious that that person was sitting in the driver's seat and put his arm on the car window. Many people have this habit when driving, especially men."
Kogoro Mouri imagined the scene and nodded in agreement. He would occasionally let go of his car like this when he was driving.
"From this we can tell that the person was driving in the opposite direction to Xiaoqiao's direction, otherwise we wouldn't be able to see the pattern."
Maori Kogoro immediately raised his own question: "What if it is an imported car? If the driver's seat is on the left, it can be seen even in the same direction, right?"
Conan retorted: "No, Xiaoqiao and the others were in the middle of the road, some distance away from the railing."
He raised his hand and pointed to the distance: "Fireworks are being set off in that direction. If he is on the other side, then Xiao Xiao won't be able to see the tattoo on that person's hand because of the light."

Maori Kogoro pinched his chin and said, "Indeed, in this case, the tattoo is on that person's right hand?"
Yuya nodded to indicate that it was correct.
Maori Kogoro made a prompt decision: "Okay! We will go to the surrounding store right away to confirm which of the three people has the tattoo on the right hand."
"It's too late," Mao Lilan suddenly said, looking at her phone, "The owner of that store is attending Mr. Sakahime Locke's memorial service, so it's closed at this time."
Maori Kogoro was stunned: "What should we do then?"
Just as Hondou Eisuke was about to say something, Conan tilted his head back and said innocently, "Maybe Xiaolan's phone accidentally captured something!"
"Huh?" Mao Lilan was a little confused.
"Did I say anything right, Brother Yingyou?"
Hondou Eisuke's heart suddenly tightened. He looked at Conan's childlike smile, but for some reason he felt a chill on his back.
That is the guilty feeling when one's little actions are seen through by others.
