The next morning, Shiraishi woke up to the sound of the doorbell.
This suite includes breakfast, which should have been delivered by the waiter.
Shiraishi opened his eyes and yawned. When he lowered his head, he felt that the pillow became bigger.
If you look closely, Mask has degenerated into the form of a cat.
It was startled for a moment, and then quickly remembered that the mask did have the flaw of "turning into a cat if you fall asleep without anyone watching." The reason given by the Q version assistant at the time was to save energy.
only……
Shiraishi raised his tail, turned his head and looked at the hair on the tip of his tail. He felt a little messy, as if he had been hugged by something.
When I opened the light screen again, I saw that the Q-version assistant was sitting in front of the backpack, counting the fragments inside. She was out of breath, and a blush of fascination appeared on her face.
Thinking back to the last time at the twins' home, classmate Q ran out of the light screen... I always felt that she was not just counting money.
But feelings cannot be used as evidence...
Shiraishi stared at the screen suspiciously. The Q-version assistant froze in his counting movements, slowly moved to the side, and finally disappeared silently from the edge of the screen.
...it ran pretty fast.
Shiraishi turned off the screen, kicked off the quilt, and prepared to do today's task.
…
I made up the notes in the morning, and at noon it was time for the ten people who participated in the "Mysterious Tour of Izu" to meet.
Shiraishi and Toru Amuro arrived at the reserved restaurant and found a young couple sitting at the table. The man was outgoing and cheerful, while the woman looked a little aloof, but she nodded and greeted them.
Next to the couple is a slovenly, wretched-looking man.
The man held a can of beer and looked at the restaurant door expectantly. When he saw two men walking in, he regretfully looked away and went back to peek at the beautiful woman in the couple.
There are several pieces of paper placed on the dining table, with each person's corresponding room number written on them.
Shiraishi found a seat and sat down. Toru Amuro was on one side of him, and the other side was empty.
Shiraishi looked at the note on the empty seat and found that it said 2001.
This number looks quite familiar.
After thinking about it for a moment, he remembered it - it happened to be the room of Imazuki Chi and Shikage Xuanichi.
Now, one of the two has passed away, and the other has been escorted into a police car, so the number of people at the event has been reduced to eight.
After excluding himself and Mao Lilan, there are only three suspects left, one of the familiar three.
...No, there is still a victim to be selected.
Choose two out of three.
While waiting for the food to be served, Shiraishi exercised his reasoning skills out of boredom.
But in fact, he didn't have to choose, he also remembered who the organizer was - the cold-looking woman in the couple opposite.
Three years ago, Sayama Akiko's brother committed suicide by jumping off a building. The reason for his suicide was that the software his company worked hard to develop was stolen, causing it to run poorly.
And the person who stole the software happened to be the wretched uncle opposite.
In fact, this is not a coincidence - Sayama Akiko falsely claimed that she had the "Night Baron" virus because she felt that Ehara Tokio would not be able to resist the temptation to use this virus to blackmail others.
The result was not what she expected. Among the applicants, she quickly found Ehara Tokio's name and had him approve the application.
After that, Akiko Sayama planned to take advantage of the unique Ji Feng in this sea area and pretended to be Ehara Tokio and committed suicide by jumping off the building.
Shiraishi remembered the evidence package he bought for 50,000 yuan in his backpack, and thought he could find an opportunity to give it to Sayama Akiko.
Although Sayama's brother was miserable, he did commit suicide. Shiraishi waited for a while last night, but could not wait for the ghost who came to the door with a license for revenge.
It seems that the revenge application failed, so we still need to use the task package to solve the problem.
Sayama Akiko's insistence on killing people is of course related to the fact that Ehara Tokio is a scumbag. But the more reason is that she can't find any evidence and can only watch the scumbag go free.
And with the evidence, although it still cannot lead to the death penalty, it will at least give the victim's family an outlet and allow Ehara Tokio to get the punishment he deserves.
But how to give the bag to Akiko Sayama and convince her to use it is a problem.
If it was secretly put in her room and she couldn't understand it after getting it, or she didn't want to give up the plan and still killed people, the 50,000 yen would be wasted.
In order for her plan to fail, it would be best to find an opportunity for face-to-face communication...
The three men from Mao Lilan also arrived quickly and found that the number of participants had decreased.
Seeing the note with the room number "2001" written on the empty seat, Mao Lilan remembered the murder last night and told the couple and Ehara Tokio about it.
After the three of them heard the news, they frowned. Tokio Ehara even burped and began to wonder if the organizer was dead and whether the event could still be held.
Conan didn't want the event to be terminated: "I asked the police uncle yesterday and they said that the two uncles in room 2001 did not have any disguise items related to the Night Baron in their luggage, so they should not be the organizers."
Suzuki Sonoko took a sip of juice and looked at him doubtfully: "You asked yesterday? How do you know they are also participants?"
Upon hearing the question, Conan almost blurted out, "Uncle Mouri Kogoro/Brother Shiraishi told me," but it was a pity that neither of them were there.
He had no choice but to state his reasoning as quietly as possible: "In the event description, didn't the room numbers of each participant be listed? One of the numbers was 2001, which happened to be my friend's student number, so I remembered it very clearly.
.
"When I arrived at the deceased's uncle's room yesterday, I found that they happened to be number 2001, so I knew it, haha."
Mao Lilan didn't think much about it. She touched Conan's head, thinking regretfully that it was not as easy to touch as a cat. She still praised him as usual: "Conan is very good at observing."
"Yeah!" Conan smiled innocently, "But if you only have room numbers, it's difficult to get to know everyone one by one. Since we want to find the Night Baron among the participants, why not introduce yourself first."
Amuro listened with his head overloaded. He always felt that when the child was saying "self-introduction", he glanced at Matsuda secretly, looking vaguely expectant... Did he not know the relevant information of Matsuda?
This is not impossible. After all, judging from what Matsuda said last night, his interaction with this child seems to be limited to "an encounter at the crime scene."
Based on Matsuda's case... From the perspective of this elementary school student, murders probably happen wherever Matsuda goes.
If this kind of thing happens again and again, anyone will become curious or even suspicious of Matsuda, and then investigate.
If it's just an ordinary event physique, forget it.
But... Matsuda is really committing crimes! Even if he hasn't killed many people yet, since he is in the organization, he will certainly do all kinds of bad things.
...it must never be detected.
Even if this child is still a little naive, if he can raise such a child, the person behind him must be difficult to deal with.
The identity of "Toru Amuro" doesn't matter. Anyway, with the police around, he won't be caught.
But Matsuda could only glorify him as an informant at best. And serious informants from the police would sometimes be caught for breaking the law, let alone being a fake.
After a round of self-introductions, when it was Toru Amuro's turn, he introduced his identity as a detective, and then pointed at Shiraishi: "This is my assistant."
After that, he looked at Suzuki Sonoko, who was sitting two empty seats away, and encouraged her to speak with a smile.
"Ah? I'm here, am I here?" Suzuki Sonoko was confused by the beauty trap, covering her face and quickly continued, "My name is Suzuki Sonoko! I live in Tokyo, and I am a sophomore in high school this year! I like tennis, desserts, handmade gardening and handsome...wrestling, and I am currently single.
