After leaving the ward, they saw Mouri Kogoro squatting on the ground collecting things thrown away by Fei Yingli, and he kept complaining.
"Really, thanks to me running to the hospital in a panic after hearing that she was hospitalized, she actually lost her temper with me."
Mouri Kogoro put the discarded things in front of the door, then shouted into the ward, asking Xiaolan to get it later, and then stood up and patted the dust on his hands.
"Of course you will be angry."
Tangze on the side couldn't help but complained: "It's okay if you don't apologize, but you still make wisecracks to try to get through.
Then when I heard your words from Concubine Lawyer Yin Yang, I still didn’t realize it and thought it was a compliment. How could I not be angry?”
"Eh? Is that so?" Mouri Kogoro said in shock when he heard Karasawa's words.
'This uncle is hopeless.'
Neither Tang Ze nor Conan spoke, but secretly complained in their hearts.
When Mouri Kogoro saw the expressions of the two of them, he scratched his head in embarrassment, obviously realizing how much hatred his actions just caused.
"Ah? Isn't this Teacher Maori?"
Just when the three of them were silent, a familiar male voice suddenly sounded from behind Moori Kogoro.
The three of them turned to look, only to find that the person behind them was Toru Amuro.
'Bourbon?'
Conan was shocked at first when he saw Toru Amuro, and then realized that the other party was an ally who had hidden his identity. He then breathed a sigh of relief and began to wonder if the other party coming to this hospital was because the organization sent him to investigate the death of Kusuda Rikudō.
He turned his eyes to look at Karasawa, only to find that the other party had no intention of looking at him at all. He was chatting with Mouri Kogoro and Amuro Toru, explaining why the two of them were here.
And he immediately calmed down, and after sorting out his mood, he no longer intended to communicate with Tang Ze secretly, such as making eye contact, to prevent the other party from finding out the clues.
"So that's it." Toru Amuro said suddenly after hearing the two people's explanations: "Anyway, it's great that everyone is fine."
"Speaking of which, why are you also in the hospital?" Mouri Kogoro asked curiously.
"Me?" Toru Amuro smiled and said, "I heard that someone I knew was hospitalized, so I came here to visit him.
But it seems that he was discharged from the hospital early without knowing when."
Speaking of this, Amuro smiled and looked at Conan: "By the way, I heard from the nurses that Conan has been to this hospital before.
I wonder if you know him?"
"Eh?" Conan pretended to be confused when he heard this, but his vigilance was at its highest.
Although they learned from Tang Ze that the other party was a teammate, this teammate was not 100% on their side.
It is okay to cooperate when they are sure, but they must also remain vigilant and not let him test out the clues that will eventually lead to refusal to cooperate or killing each other.
In Karasawa's words, Toru Amuro is currently a double-edged sword, and after the cooperation is over, he has to resist the other party's temptations.
So you still have to tell lies when you should.
"It's a man named Kusuda Rikudo. Do you know him?" Toru Amuro asked, staring at Conan's face.
"Who is that? I don't know." Conan replied with a blank expression on his face after hearing this. His expression did not change at all.
Obviously, after seeing that the other party was wary and judging Toru Amuro's actions, he quickly made a mental preparation and performed his acting skills smoothly.
"To be honest, I lent money to that man, but now he can't find anyone." Toru Amuro asked with a smile: "You really don't know?"
"Yeah." Conan nodded without changing his expression.
But I never thought that after seeing Conan's expression, Amuro Toru's lips turned up slightly with a smile: "You are really amazing."
After saying this, Toru Amuro straightened up and ended the conversation with Conan, without any intention of explaining.
Just when Conan was secretly reflecting on what went wrong with his actions, Toru Amuro seemed to have read through Conan's thoughts.
He looked at the two ladies walking towards them and asked, "I'm sorry to bother you, but do you know about a hospital patient named Kusuda Rikudichi?"
"Kusuda Rikudo?" The woman in the yellow coat repeated her name, then shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know who he is. How old is he?"
"If you have a photo of that person, we might be able to remember something." The fat woman in a red coat replied.
"If you don't have a photo, then it won't be a problem." Toru Amuro thanked them and said goodbye to the two of them.
"What about the teacher and Karasawa's case?"
After watching the two people leave, Toru Amuro turned to look at them with a smile and asked, "What would be your reaction if someone suddenly said a name to you and asked you if you knew it?"
"You ask me?" Mouri Kogoro replied after hearing this: "Probably just like those aunts just now."
"I have a "memory palace", and I can instantly determine if I am an acquaintance." Tangze said, "I have an impression of the person you just mentioned. He seems to have disappeared. The police have not found his whereabouts."
"It seems like the money will never come back since it disappeared."
After hearing the news about Kusuda Rikudō from Karasawa, Toru Amuro did not continue to ask for details. Instead, he praised Karasawa in a ulterior manner: "As expected of the famous Karasawa criminal, he even has the ability in this kind of novel.
However, most people are not 100% confident in their memory, so usually they would want to ask the person asking for more information before saying they don't know him."
Having said this, Toru Amuro looked down at Conan and said with a smile: "That's why I said you are so awesome, Conan, you have already reached the same level as Master at such a young age.
Just by hearing that name, you know you don't recognize it."
And after hearing Toru Amuro's words, Conan couldn't help but secretly groan.
Karasawa Criminal Police had obviously thrown out the information about Kusuda Rikudō to divert his attention, but Toru Amuro didn't expect that he wouldn't be fooled at all, and his attention was still on himself who had exposed his flaws.
"Hmph, don't take what that kid says seriously."
Mouri Kogoro on the side heard this and snorted disdainfully: "Whether you have seen it or not, there are many guys who don't know their names.
Some people even only know their nicknames and don’t know who they are when they mention their names.”
Conan on the side heard Mouri Kogoro helping him to rescue him. He breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time, he already understood in his heart that Toru Amuro just lost.
Toru Amuro used his actions to prove what ordinary people's reaction was. Compared with his calm and confident answer just now, it revealed flaws.
"zero!"
At this moment, the little boy at the elevator entrance next to everyone suddenly shouted, causing Amuro Toru's body to tremble.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the boy who was excitedly waiting for the elevator to come down, and the shock on his face slowly calmed down.
Looking at the other party's reaction, Karasawa raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Toru Amuro and asked, "What's wrong with you? Your reaction just now seemed a bit loud?"
"Ah, no."
Toru Amuro watched the mother and son enter the elevator, smiled and turned to look at Karasawa and explained: "The main reason is because my nickname is also "Zero", so the countdown of the child waiting for the elevator just now made me think he was calling me.
