"Uehara, Sato, the results are out. This fireplace does lead to the outside, and our people found a foam wall at the exit of the fireplace.
"Based on the situation at the scene, it should be something used to block our surveillance..."
Looking through the notebook full of writing, Rensaburo Shiratori, who had returned in a hurry after the investigation and was breathing calmly, had an ugly expression on his face: "Same as here, there are also Kenzo Masayama's fingerprints on it, but there are only his fingerprints."
"According to the testimony of senior executives of his automobile company, Kenzo Masama signed the company's business contract in the villa room last night and communicated with some board members on strategic directions through video conference.
"In other words, the time of death of Kenzo Masuyama should be after 21:30 after the end of the video conference last night."
On the side, Sato Miwako, who hung up the phone, also raised her eyes to look at her partner who was leaning on the extinguished fireplace, and also told her what she had determined.
"Last night? Video conference?"
Kicking the body bag containing the bones at his feet, Katsuki Uehara picked up the evidence bag containing the pistol with one hand, placed it in his palm and weighed it carefully, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
No one else knows the true identity of Masuyama Kenzo, but he still knows it.
A veteran member of the winery, codenamed Pisco, is a bottle of real wine that died in the hands of Gin. If I remember correctly, he also saw Miyano Shiho when he was a child.
It is precisely for this reason that Kenzo Masayama in the original Conan timeline was able to recognize Haibara Ai's true identity after seeing her.
Unfortunately, he was shot dead by Gin in the end.
But now...
Miyano Shiho ran away from the organization before he was even smaller, and is still receiving treatment in the hospital under the supervision of the police.
Logically speaking, there should be no need for Gin to kill Masuyama Kenzo, because his identity as "Pisco" has not been completely exposed, and he is currently only being monitored by the police and public security because of the excuses Belmode used before.
In the absence of evidence, Masuyama Kenzo could completely brush himself off. After all, Pisco in the original timeline was killed because he left behind decisive evidence that could not be destroyed——
Um?
Wait a minute, could you say...?
After thinking about it, Katsuki Uehara raised his eyes and looked at Miwako Sato: "Sato, carefully check everything Kenzo Masayama has done during this period, down to the smallest detail."
"clear."
"Shiratori, take people to his company. I want to know if Kenzo Masama has really disappeared and... It's best to use your personal connections to find out. If Kenzo Masama is really dead, who will be his successor?"
.”
"No problem, leave it to me."
Shiratori Rensaburo nodded.
In addition to being a policeman, he is also the noble son of the Shiratori Consortium. If the head of an automobile group as big as Kenzo Masayama disappears mysteriously, it will definitely be news in the upper-class capital circles.
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll take Miyano Akemi to the hospital first. She's still outside in the car. It's not good to stay too long."
Finally, after weighing the pistol wrapped in the evidence bag a few times and throwing it into the evidence box not far away, Uehara Katsumi lifted up the hand strap of the body bag with the toe of his shoe, stretched out his left hand just right, and grabbed it.
The body bag passed the two people and walked out of the basement.
Outside the Mashan Villa, among the magenta Evos that were extremely conspicuous among the police cars, Miyano Akemi, who was sitting dignifiedly in the passenger seat, clenched her fists and maintained a highly tense expression at all times.
It was true that Uehara Katsumi had told her that the car's glass was serious bulletproof glass before leaving, but being exposed to "the public" like this still made her extremely nervous.
Thinking of her dying sister who was still lying in the hospital, Miyano Akemi looked down at her watch several times while being nervous. Finally, the man carrying a bag walked out of the villa door and caught her sight.
"Officer Uehara, what is this?"
"Some bones."
When he said this, Uehara Katsumi, who threw the bag into the back seat and closed the car door, seemed to have thought of something and asked: "Ms. Miyano, do you know Kenzo Masatoyama?"
"No, I have never heard of this name at all. What's wrong?" Miyano Akemi frowned when she heard an unfamiliar name and asked in confusion: "What happened again?"
"Roughly the same."
After fastening his seat belt, Katsuki Uehara pointed his right thumb toward the back seat and started the car: "Did you see it? Theoretically, if there is nothing wrong, it should be the bones of Kenzo Masayama inside."
——?!
Hearing the man speak so calmly, Miyano Akemi's eyelids couldn't help but twitch: "Did the organization do it?"
"It's close to ten, if it can be confirmed that it is indeed him."
Pointing his index finger on the steering wheel, thinking about everything that had just happened today, Katsuki Uehara took out his mobile phone from his suit pocket with one hand, dug out Conan's mailbox and typed an email to him.
…………………………………………
"Brother, Katsumi Uehara showed up at Pisco's villa, but..."
"But what?"
"But it seems that he also has Miyano Akemi in his car?"
Tokyo, the organization's base.
Vodka, who was holding a stack of photos in his hand, scratched the back of his head and was a little puzzled: "Why did he leave Miyano Akemi alone in the car and go in so arrogantly?"
"I just want to test whether there are any of our people watching around Villa Pisco. It's hard to say whether Miyano Akemi is real or fake."
He took the stack of photos and spread them out on the coffee table. Gin held up the wine glass with a hint of amusement at the corner of his mouth. He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass: "It seems that his attention was indeed distracted by Xue."
The belt went astray."
"After all, no matter how suspicious the police are, the Shirley we released is a real person." Vodka Heihe Zhile, who took over the eldest brother's words: "Who would have thought that we changed our main target midway. Compared with him, we have already betrayed him.
The Miyano sisters who have joined the organization are worthless."
"Don't be careless. The advantage we have now is just because of the advantage in intelligence. If it weren't for his advance preparation that led us to learn about two different locations, I'm afraid we would have fallen into Uehara Katsumi's trap by now."
Facing Vodka's slightly complacent look, Gin put down his glass and warned.
"I understand, brother." Vodka immediately put away his smile and said seriously: "Don't worry, the bomb is ready."
"Where's Keir?"
"The performance has always been unsuspecting, but do we really want her to participate in the operation?"
"Let her be responsible for picking up Belmode."
Gin lowered the brim of his hat with one hand and raised the corners of his mouth wantonly. The black hat instantly covered most of his face: "Go to the Metropolitan Police Department to pick him up."
