The girls sang all the songs they wanted to sing, then realized it was getting late, checked their belongings, and prepared to leave.
Seeing that Conan hadn't come back yet, Mao Lilan called Conan again.
"W-what? There was a murder in the bar?"
The private room was already quiet. When they heard Mao Lilan's surprised question, the others turned their attention to Mao Lilan.
Chi Feichi remembered the incident that Maori Kogoro encountered in the billiards bar, but he didn't know how far the incident had developed now. Whether Conan had solved the incident or not, he also looked at Mao Lilan who was on the phone, waiting for Mao Lilan to call.
Telephone.
I hope Conan can hurry up and solve the incident before they pass...
"Have the police arrived? Yes, we were ready to go back. I found that you haven't come back yet, so I called you... That's it, then I won't disturb you..."
After hanging up the phone, Mao Lilan explained to the other people in the private room, "There was a murder in that bar. Conan and my father were there to cooperate with the police investigation, so they didn't come to us, but Conan said that my father already knew
After learning the truth about the incident, he will help my father conduct experiments next, and the incident should be solved soon."
"We already know the truth..." Sera Masaki said regretfully, "Conan is really cunning. He said he would be back soon, but secretly went to investigate the case and asked us to wait for him here!"
"When Conan said he was coming to find us, something happened in the bar," Mao Lilan said with a helpless smile, "He was also held back..."
Haiyuan Ai yawned, "Isn't it great that the incident has been solved? By the time we get to the intersection, it might be over for them, and we can go home together."
Chi Feichi saw that Hui Yuan Ai was sleepy and asked proactively, "Xiao Ai, are you going to the Seventh Detective Agency tonight, or are you going back to the doctor's house?"
"Both you and Sister Nanatsuki have been drinking. It's inconvenient to drive. It's a long walk from here to the doctor's house. So, if you don't mind me destroying your world, then I'll go to Seven Detective Agency tonight.
," Haiyuan lamented, "I'll call the doctor later so that he doesn't have to wait for me to go back tonight."
"The kid is troublesome," Lingzuki Sonoko stood up with her bag. Seeing Mao Lilan laughing at the side, she couldn't help but joked, "Xiaolan, your kid is also very troublesome. Think about it, what if you end up talking to Kudo in the future?"
When we go on a date, that kid will also go with us, and then it will become three people going to the amusement park and three people going to the movies..."
Mao Lilan imagined the scene where she and Kudo Shinichi went out to play, and Conan kept appearing between them. It did feel strange. She quickly reflected that she shouldn't think that Conan would destroy their world, and said with a smile, "
I haven't thought about this problem before, but I think it's okay to take Conan out with me occasionally!"
Suzuki Sonoko choked and complained with half-moon eyes, "You are really hopeless!"
Seeing that everyone else had checked their belongings, Chi Feichi led the way out and reminded Suzuki Sonoko, "Ayako didn't think you were in trouble back then."
Haiyuan Ai followed Chi Feichi. Seeing that Lingmu Yuanzi was choked again, she mentally applauded her brother.
Her brother is very good at fighting.
"My situation is different," Suzuki Sonoko retorted in a low voice, "I didn't bother my sister when she was dating..."
A group of people left the karaoke shop.
At the corner of the street, Suzuki Sonoko took a taxi to go home, while Sera Masumi planned to visit the bar where the incident occurred before going back.
In a bar two streets away, Conan had already used the identity of "Sleeping Kogoro" to explain his reasoning and solved the incident. From then on, he stayed beside the sleeping Kogoro Mori and watched the two policemen take away the prisoner.
Takagi Wataru reminded Conan that he would take notes with Kogoro Mori another day, and said another thing, "I've been having a headache recently about the notes. Do you still remember the murder of Kurobei at the shrine? Yes.
The victim who was picked up by a pickpocket is very strange. He is the gentleman named Benzaki Kiruhei. He has never gone to the Metropolitan Police Department to make a record..."
Conan thought of the man who approached him and talked to Judy at the shrine, and suddenly felt something was wrong in his heart. A trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He frowned and confirmed to Takagi Wataru, "It was the man who was arrested together with Mr. Judy during the bank robbery."
Is that Mr. Bensaki who is being held hostage?”
"Yeah, he's not the only one who's weird..." Takagi Wataru leaned over and looked at Conan, with a puzzled look on his face, "On the day at the shrine, after his wife arrived, didn't she say that she was involved in a bank robbery and sealed it with tape?
Teacher Judy's mouth? But I remember in the transcript of the bank robbery, the people who were taken hostage that day said that the robbers first asked people who had no relatives or friends to come forward, and then asked these people to seal the mouths of others.
This can prevent someone from being merciful to relatives and friends, right? According to this, the pregnant lady’s husband, Mr. Benizaki, was also at the bank that day. She was not without relatives and friends present, and looking at her belly, she was at the bank.
She must have been pregnant at the time when the robbery took place. What is the reason that would make her, a pregnant woman, take the risk to deceive the robber and say that she has no relatives or friends? "
Conan finally understood the source of his uneasiness and asked hurriedly, "Since Mr. Bensaki did not go to the Metropolitan Police Department to make a record of the murder of Kurobei at the shrine, did the police contact him after that?"
"Yes, because I felt that the couple was a bit weird, so I not only called him, but also visited him at home." Takagi Wataru looked even more confused, "But he said that he didn't remember being involved in the murder of a pickpocket at all.
He turned me away every time, and I heard from his neighbors that he was still single. What the hell is going on..."
Before Takagi Wataru could finish speaking, Conan ran out of the bar with a livid face.
During the bank robbery, the robber asked people who had no relatives or friends to come forward and sealed their mouths with tape. If the two people were really married and the woman was pregnant, it would be impossible for the woman to take the risk to deceive the robber...
…
The fake couple clearly showed such a big flaw, but he never reacted!
Afterwards, the police came to visit, and the man named Bensaki Kiruhei said that he did not remember being involved in the murder of a pickpocket. From this point of view, it is possible that the person they met that day was not the real Kiruhei Benzaki, and that the fake couple belonged to that organization.
People are pretending!
If what he said to Teacher Judy that day had been heard by those guys, then...
Conan stopped suddenly at the intersection.
Wait, before the people from that organization disguise themselves as someone else, they should investigate the background of the target. If they want to use 'bank robbery' as a topic to approach him and Teacher Judy, then the disguiser will at least know about bank robberies.
details, you should also know that the robbers asked people without relatives or friends to come forward... How could such a big flaw be revealed?
Perhaps this flaw was left deliberately by those guys, just to let them discover the flaw and use it to test their reaction?
If he finds that his conversation with Teacher Judy may have been overheard by someone in the organization, he will contact Teacher Judy, give a reminder, and then...
Tell Mr. Subaru the situation?
Thinking of this, Conan's back went cold, and he even felt a gaze staring at him from behind. He looked back, and even if he didn't see anyone suspicious, he didn't dare to take it lightly. He softened his expression, pretended to be fine, and took the
She took out her mobile phone and called Mao Lilan, "Sister Xiaolan... I'm waiting for you at the street corner. Have you come out?"
In a nearby alley, Toru Amuro leaned against the wall and stood in the shadow of the alley, quietly listening to Conan's phone call.
Conan looked frightened and ran out in a hurry, just to call Xiaolan to tell Xiaolan that he was at the intersection?
He didn't believe it.
However, Conan seemed to have thought that he might be spying on him, and as he was on guard, he probably wouldn't go to someone to discuss what to do next.
He just wanted to confirm whether that guy was Akai. Why was it so difficult?
On the street, after Conan finished calling Mao Lilan, he hesitated and called Dr. A Li's house.
"Doctor, I have something to ask you...Have you felt that there are strange people watching you nearby recently? I suspect that organization..."
"Wha, what?" Dr. Ali raised his voice in shock, "Have people from that organization already come here?"
"No, I just want to know about the recent situation," Conan quickly found an excuse to appease Dr. A Li, "When Haiyuan was at home, I never found a chance to ask you how your situation is recently. Tonight Haiyuan
After I went out to play, I remembered to ask you."
Dr. Ali guessed that Conan didn't want Haibara Ai to worry about this or that. He believed Conan's words and breathed a long sigh of relief, "No, I haven't found anyone suspicious around me recently... I thought someone from that organization was looking for someone."
When they came to my door, I was really scared to death."
"I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered, so I called you... Since there's nothing else, I won't disturb you. You can go to bed early!"
Conan hung up the phone and let out a breath to calm his heartbeat.
He doesn't know if Mr. Subaru still dares to install a bug in the doctor's house now, but Mr. Subaru should have other means to monitor the doctor's house.
For example, using phone lines, using computer software...
As long as Mr. Subaru knows what he said to the doctor on the phone tonight, he should be able to understand the message he wants to convey - he has noticed the new movements of those guys, and the situation has reached the point where he wants to confirm the safety of the doctor's house, but
Those guys haven't found them yet, so be vigilant but don't worry too much.
Calling me so late to check on the situation is an excuse that can only fool the doctor. Mr. Subaru will definitely be able to react!
In the alley next to her, Toru Amuro was silent and thinking.
Did the second call go to Dr. Ali’s home?
Calling him so late to find out the situation was a fool, right? Why did he think this was a tip off?
