Chapter 293 I Never Lie

Shiraishi looked at the hole in the glass door, estimated the price of the door, and then followed Conan's line of sight to look behind the counter.

Butterfly reluctantly knelt down and pretended to pick up something, then disappeared in an instant.

That head of hers is really easy to hide.

Shiraishi stared at the counter for a while and began to draft in his mind, the employee rules should be updated again.

But now, what is more important is this series of tasks.

Shiraishi found a pair of disposable gloves, walked outside the door, picked up the fallen paper flowers, and looked at them pretending to be curious.

In the Queen of Spades playing card, the Queen holds a paper flower like this.

It was actually thrown at his door. Could it be that Kouki Sawaki, who has an obsessive-compulsive disorder, felt that there was a difference between a concubine and a queen, and suddenly discovered that there was a more useful one, 12, and temporarily changed the target?

...Then I would have thrown away the bugs in vain.

Just as I was thinking about it, a person suddenly came over next to me.

While Mouri Kogoro and Maori Lan were trying to pull out the chopsticks, Conan tugged on Shiraishi's clothes, and after he lowered his body, he suddenly said: "You lied about what happened last time."

"..."

Which thing?

Which last time?

When facing Conan, Shiraishi basically didn't tell the truth.

When he was suddenly asked this question, he had no idea what Conan was referring to, and a real confusion appeared on his face for a moment.

Conan observed carefully, but couldn't see any flaws. In the end, he had to think that he was overthinking it.

He looked at Shiraishi who was reminiscing seriously and reminded: "Didn't you say before that someone was investigating you?" Then he said that it had been taken care of, but within a few days, someone blocked the door and shot arrows.

Before, Conan thought that Shiraishi didn't want to worry his neighbors, so he told a white lie.

But now it seems that it doesn't look like it. It hasn't been long since Shiraishi said "it has been solved". If Shiraishi really lied at that time, he would never have the same expression just now - even if he studied psychology

In related majors, it is often difficult for people to conceal their true reactions when they are suddenly asked questions.

So at that time, Shiraishi was telling the truth, at least what he thought was the truth.

"That incident." Shiraishi remembered it. He shook his head, picked up the paper flower in his hand and shook it twice. "That incident is indeed over. This time the attacker should be someone else, and

, he doesn’t seem to be just here for me.”

Conan looked at the flower in Shiraishi's hand, his eyes gradually becoming serious. Listening to Shiraishi's words, could this flower be the symbol of another criminal gang?

When Shiraishi saw it, he felt that Conan was mistaken.

He paused and chose his words: "Have you read the blog of the Memu Police Department? He was also attacked last night. He posted several photos, one of which was a short paper made of a handful picked up at the scene of the attack.

sword."

The Memu Police Department was also attacked?

Conan was startled, took out his cell phone, and started surfing the Internet.

He followed the Mu Mu Police Department's blog, but there were very few useful things on it. Most of them were health tips and occasionally reminded others to take precautions. Conan didn't read it very often. Compared to this, he preferred to read news related to some cases.

.

On mobile phones, the web page refreshes slowly.

Conan found the picture sent by the Mumu Police Department, and after reading the text, he felt that he had caught something: "I seem to have seen this sword before." But he couldn't remember where he saw it...

"I feel the same way." Bai Shi nodded and looked at the paper flowers in his hand.

After looking at it for a while, he showed a little "I understand" expression.

Under Conan's curious eyes, Shiraishi walked back to the store and found a pair of playing cards.

He quickly took out a small pile and placed it on the dining table near the door of the store.

The one picked out was the spade playing card Chapter 13.

Maori Kogoro and Mao Lilan also came over. Maori Kogoro saw the King of Spades at the top and was surprised by the sword in the king's hand in the picture: "They look the same!"

Conan faced the risk of being beaten by Mouri Kogoro, and moved the K to the side, looking at the next card, the Queen of Spades.

The queen above is holding a paper flower.

It's almost the same as the flower that was thrown at Shiraishi's door.

"...This is probably a purposeful attack." Mouri Kogoro's face turned serious.

He quickly looked at Shiraishi, thought for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "Did you owe money when you were playing cards and didn't pay it back? Or did you quarrel with someone when you lost? Or did you win with a single Q?"

Which glass heart?"

"How is that possible!" Mao Lilan pressed Mao Li Kogoro's mouth to stop his father from talking nonsense to their healthy and law-abiding neighbors.

"I don't play cards often, and I don't quarrel often, so this shouldn't be a problem."

Shiraishi's tone was calm, and he didn't seem to mind Mori Kogoro's guessing. He carefully compiled:

"The murderer who leaves such a code should have his own logic when choosing his victims. There must be something in common between me and the Megure Police Department that interests him."

Hearing this, the other three people began to think.

The butterfly ninja poked his head out from behind the counter, took a look at the situation, made some drinks and brought them over, trying to make up for the damage caused by accidentally poking the door.

Conan couldn't think of anything in common between Shiraishi and the Megure Police Department, or rather, they had so many things in common that he didn't know what attracted the perpetrator.

——For example, they are all people, all men, and their jobs or research fields are all related to criminals. It may even be that some people have hatred for the police and detectives, so they picked them for revenge.

And that commonality should be related to poker.

Conan held the Queen of Spades and looked at Shiraishi, unable to figure out how he was connected to the Q.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but as soon as this thought flashed across his mind, Conan felt like someone was secretly spying on him.

Conan turned his head alertly, but there was only Shiraishi in that direction. Shiraishi was talking to Mao Lilan and didn't look at him at all.

Conan glanced at Shiraishi in confusion, but couldn't find the problem and started studying poker again.

When the black cat catches the man, everything will be revealed. To solve the mystery, you have to catch him before he succeeds.

At this time, Shiraishi's cell phone rang, and a call came in.

He continued to say a few words, his expression became very worried, and after a while, he hung up the phone: "That person went to Dr. Ali's house again."

"What!?" Conan was startled subconsciously.

When mentioning Dr. Ali's family, one has to think of Haibara Ai.

Then linking Haibara Ai with the attacker in black... Gin and vodka popped into Conan's mind, oh, and now there's also bourbon.

However, he quickly denied the speculation.

Shiraishi and Megure Police Department probably have nothing to do with the organization.

And that organization... isn't so poor that it attacks people with crossbows.

Mao Lilan and Mao Li Kogoro also became nervous when they heard that the doctor was attacked.

However, when Bai Shi said that nothing serious happened, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
