"I don't care what method you use, in short, I must see my son back today!
"And that person, my husband said that you have caught the doctor who is a suspected accomplice, right? Give him to me, and I will ask him now where my son is!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, please calm down, calm down. Mr. Takasugi is already discussing rescue matters with Minister Odagiri, and it will be concluded soon——"
"Calm down? My son is kidnapped now and you tell me to calm down? I shouldn't have agreed to that Matsumoto Kiyonaga to monitor him in the first place! What's the use of him?!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, in fact, the Matsumoto Police Department was notified that their daughter was critically ill, so they were so anxious that they failed to pay attention and were ambushed by the criminals who had been ambushed in advance."
"So? Since you found out that the call was from the hospital, why didn't you hand over the doctor to me?!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, Natsuki Chuan is not your future daughter-in-law's attending doctor. He was only on duty that night. The calls to your son and the Matsumoto Police Department were indeed notified by the hospital after they discovered that the patient was critically ill...
…”
The noisy office area of the third department, the lady who was so impatient that she wanted to hand him over to my mother to torture him several times but did not say it due to her external identity and image, the eyes that kept wiping sweat, and the one who was completely unable to intervene.
Kogoro Mori spoke.
This was what they saw when Katsumi Uehara and Miwako Sato came back in the afternoon.
It wasn't until the unwanted lady finally left with a bad look on her face that Megure Thirteen breathed a sigh of relief: "Compared to Mrs. Suzuki, Mrs. Takasugi is really..."
The following words were not spoken, but Mouri Kogoro also understood what his former colleague meant.
Compared to Suzuki Tomoko, who still pays attention to restraint, this Takasugi's character is indeed a bit worse.
"Police department, what's going on?"
"That's Mrs. Takasugi. She wants to leave Natsuki Chuan." Seeing his subordinate return, Megure Thirteen gave a simple explanation, and the two of them understood instantly.
The wife of the leader of the consortium came to ask for someone in person. The meaning behind this is self-evident.
"Mr. Suzuki and Mr. Takasugi are now discussing countermeasures with Chief Odagiri. This situation is no longer something we can make the decision on."
Toshiro Odagiri, the head of the Criminal Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, with the title of Chief Inspector, is a true police boss.
Mumu Shisan sighed and put his hands on his round waist: "But Xia Muchuanzhi doesn't seem to be afraid that people from the consortium will do something to him, or in other words, he doesn't seem to be afraid of this at all."
"However, the key point now is that we don't know why the prisoner wanted to kidnap Toshihiko Takasugi and Ayako Suzuki. According to Mrs. Takasugi and Mrs. Suzuki, they have not received the blackmail text message from the prisoner so far."
Mouri Kogoro on the side was talking, but he noticed that the female policeman standing next to Uehara Katsumi looked at him with a look that seemed to contain a bit of...suspiciousness?
"Detective Mori, why did you go to Miyazawa Yuka's house this morning?" Since there have been so many criminals recently asking the police to use their alibi, Sato Miwako still can't let go of her suspicion of the former detective.
Mouri Kogoro, who instantly understood what she meant, told the truth: "I received an email from her last night asking me to go over and talk about something. She made an appointment with me around seven o'clock in the evening."
Miyazawa Yuka is the employer, he is a detective. The employer has asked for a discussion and given a time, so he, a paid private detective, must be there on time and on time.
This is very reasonable.
Unfortunately, this employer seems to be one of the murderers now.
the other side.
Conan, who was standing under the blackboard, was looking up at the layout of photos, which had a lot more content than last time. After hearing Miwako Sato's question, he couldn't help but glance to the left and sighed secretly:
It can be seen that some people in the police are already suspicious of all the participants in this case. If this continues, it is difficult to guarantee that the Suzuki family and the Takasugi family will not also come to question Uncle Mouri...
Even though Xiaolan and Yuanzi are good friends who have played together since childhood.
Thinking of this, Conan, who had his hands in his pockets, couldn't help but turn his head and look to the right. Xiaolan, who was holding Sonoko's arm, was comforting her in a low voice.
"In short, the top priority now is to find out the whereabouts of Takasugi Toshihiko and Suzuki Ayako as soon as possible. If the criminals want to blackmail, they will definitely find a time to call today."
Memu Shisan, who had lost the supreme command of the eucalyptus, coughed and lectured his returning subordinates with a solemn expression: "This will be a multi-department coordinated operation, do you understand?!"
"learn!"
"..."
Looking at Katsumi Uehara who was in the police team, Conan, who was standing under the blackboard, raised his head again and stared at the information on the blackboard.
At the moment, he didn't care whether this person would notice something was wrong, saving people was more important.
The eldest son and daughter of the consortium were kidnapped. The police dispatched must be eager to dig up all the land in Tokyo to find it. The prisoner could not have imagined the consequences.
And if nearly the entire Tokyo police force is used to conduct a blanket search...
Conan frowned: This means that the prisoner does not have much time left, which means that Toshihiko Takasugi and Ayako Suzuki are in danger now.
Also, why did Miyazawa Yuka deliberately decorate the living room to have the same characteristics as the other two locations before leaving?
Looking at the newly posted photos of the scene and the newly written information posted by the police, Conan, who has always had a keen sense of smell, felt that something was wrong.
Intimidating the police?
Or is it a demonstration against the police like the one at Miwa Central Hospital?
besides……
There was no mystery this time. Conan, who was in the same predicament as the police, was lost in thought. He stood up on tiptoes as if no one else was around, reached out and took down the photos that had been posted not long ago, held them in his hands, and lowered his head in thought.
What exactly does this release of Masked Superman mean?
Mao Lilan, who was still comforting her best friend, happened to witness the extremely adult behavior of the child living in her home again, and her brows instantly furrowed...
Ring ring ring!
"Mom? Well, okay, I understand..."
Beside Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko stood up after answering the phone and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced a smile to her best friend: "Lan, I have to go back."
"But Sonoko, you are in this state..."
"My parents are waiting for me downstairs, it's okay, thank you." The second daughter of the Suzuki family, who had always been carefree, had a look of weakness on her face that was heartbreaking.
"The police department went to Tedan High School and confirmed again. The deceased Sakurako Kirino had not appeared in school 13 days ago. After asking many people, it was clear that it was her father who asked for leave.
"In addition, during this re-visit investigation, we found out that there is another student who has also not been seen in school since 13 days ago, and his father also came forward to ask for leave."
Suddenly, Takagi Sheba, who hurriedly opened the door and entered, attracted the attention of many people.
After hearing this, Mu Mu Shisan frowned: "There is another one? Is there another body of the prisoner that we haven't found? Who is it?"
"Kudo Shinichi."
"What did you say?! You mean Brother Kudo was also killed?!"
Almost instantly, Mu Mu Thirteen and the horrified Mao Lilan stood up from their chairs at the same time, staring intently at Takagi Wataru who was reporting——
"Ah sneeze!"
Edogawa Conan, who had become the victim inexplicably, pinched the photo in his hand and sneezed hard.
"Um...Brother Shinichi was not killed. He just went to the United States to investigate the case. He called me two days ago. How could he be killed? Now, are you right, Sister Xiaolan?"
Seeing that the direction of the investigation might even turn to him, Conan hurriedly acted innocent and did not forget to drag Xiaolan along with him.
Looking at Conan who was suddenly squirming, Mao Lilan felt more and more strange as she recalled that she had indeed received a call from Shinichi a few days ago.
