Judy's expression was slightly startled, her eyes staring at the two people by the window in trance.
Because there was a table across the way, she didn't immediately know who was using her left hand and who was using her right hand.
It was only when the two of them picked up the water glasses at the same time, using the same palm in the general direction, that she realized that one of them must be left-handed.
As she focused her analysis, she immediately recognized that the man in the wheelchair was left-handed.
Shuichi Akai is also left-handed.
It's just that the man in the wheelchair looks very different from Shuichi Akai, and his temperament doesn't match...
What's wrong with me?
I actually imagined that a passerby was Shuichi Akai
Judy's eyes were stunned, then she shook her head helplessly and turned her attention back to the food on the table in front of her.
At the same time, Toru Amuro, who was sitting by the window, tilted his head slightly and glanced at Judy and Kamel from the corner of his eye.
In fact, when he pushed Shuichi Akai in, he noticed the two of them and recognized Judy among them.
Before the full moon incident, Bermod had asked Tohru Amuro to investigate the list and location of FBI personnel in Japan.
With the Japanese public security channels, this is certainly not difficult. All we need to do is retrieve the flight records of international flights and ask Yuya Kazami to investigate.
Therefore, Toru Amuro knew about Judy.
Judy Stelling, American FBI agent.
The man sitting opposite her, dressed formally and with strong arms, should be her colleague...
Why are these two people here?
Ever since he learned that Morofuku Kagemitsu might not have been killed by Shuichi Akai, Toru Amuro's hostility towards the FBI is not as strong as before.
But for these guys who like to do things to other people's "lovers", he can't just let them go.
It is his duty as a Japanese public security officer to defend against any invasion by external forces.
He frowned slightly and thought, and suddenly thought of a possibility.
Could these people be looking for Shuichi Akai?
This group of FBI had taken unauthorized actions in Japan before. As a result, after Shuichi Akai disappeared, they did not dare to report the case to the police and could only search for him silently in this way.
It's just that they didn't expect that this time the initiative lies with me...
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro felt a little relieved, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Immediately, he looked at Akai Shuichi across the table.
"Subaru, don't always look far away. Maybe a surprise is right next to you?"
Akai Shuichi, who was looking out the window, looked slightly startled and slowly turned his head to look over.
He glanced at everyone in the cafe with calm eyes until Toru Amuro brought the pre-dinner dessert from under the table.
“Surprise is here!”
Toru Amuro put the snacks on the table and confirmed in his mind that Akai Shuichi had not recovered his memory yet.
He deliberately asked Shuichi Akai to turn his head and look inside the restaurant, just to see his reaction when he saw his two former colleagues.
If there are signs of memory recovery, there will be at least a small change in the pupils when seeing an acquaintance.
But just now Akai Shuichi's eyes were as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without causing any emotional waves.
This proves that Akai Shuichi's memory has not been restored.
This is both good news and bad news for Toru Amuro.
The good news is that he doesn't need to expend too much energy guarding someone with amnesia.
The bad news is that Shuichi Akai still can't recall the circumstances in which Morofushi Kagemitsu was killed.
He wants to find out why Zhu Fu Jingguang, whose death he witnessed back then, is still active within the organization as "Scotch Whiskey".
…
Rice Flower Department Store, underground garage.
Qin Zhibo, who quickly finished his lunch, bought some cakes in the cake shop and sent them to Kuroba Kaito, who was still watching.
Looking at the cake sent by Qin Zhibo, a smile appeared on Kuroba Kaito's depressed lips.
"That's pretty much it~"
"Okay, then you eat slowly, I'm going back." After delivering the meal, Qin Zhibo turned around and left.
"Wait a moment!"
Kuroba Kaito took the cake and water and quickly called Qin Zhibo, "I have been monitoring in this underground garage in the morning, how about we change in the afternoon?"
After a whole morning of suffering, Kuroba Kaito no longer wanted to stay in this underground garage.
The view here is not good, the air is a bit cold, and there are many dead people... This kind of place actually allowed him to stay for a whole morning.
He could swear that apart from avenging his father Kuroba Toichi and searching for his father, this was the most patient thing he had ever done.
However, when faced with Kuroba Kaito's proposal to switch defenses, Qin Zhibo shook his head and refused after thinking carefully.
"No, Conan and the others are coming to the mall in the afternoon. Conan recognizes the human skin mask you are using, as well as your original face. If he sees it, your situation will not be good..."
Kuroba Kaito thought of that kid with glasses, he was indeed a somewhat troublesome existence.
"But he may not come in through the mall entrance!"
"No." Qin Zhibo shook his head, "He will definitely come in through the main entrance of the mall, because the detective agency where he lives temporarily is not far from here, and Mouri Kogoro will definitely not be willing to rent a car to come here."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
In this way, Kuroba Kaito was refuted by Qin Zhibo's seamless theory and failed to successfully exchange defense zones with Qin Zhibo.
But in fact, Qin Zhibo also lied.
Conan not only knows Akai Shuichi's face, but also the "Michael Bay" face used by Qin Zhibo.
Speaking of which, Michael Bay is Conan's savior.
That time Conan hid in the underground locker of the station in advance. If Qin Zhibo hadn't released the water, his life would have been killed by Gin Jiu's gun.
Of course, Qin Zhibo had a way to avoid Conan's sight and avoid being discovered by him.
…
Returning to the main entrance of Mihua Department Store, Qin Zhibo sat in his familiar position again and cast the finding spell first.
"Chiba" still hasn't come to the department store.
Could it be that he already suspected that he was being targeted and changed his course of action?
Just when Qin Zhibo felt that the plan might be ruined, three familiar figures walked in from the main entrance of the mall.
It's none other than Conan, Maori Lan, and Maori Kogoro.
The three of them pushed the revolving glass door in. Mouri Kogoro raised his left hand in his pocket and first glanced at the watch on his wrist.
"It's just after noon now, Xiaolan, the location the client mentioned is the sporting goods counter in Mihua Department Store, right?"
"Yes." Mao Lilan tapped her corner, "The sports goods counter is on the third floor, and the elevator is over here."
"Really... we're just talking about things anyway, why not just make an appointment at the drink shop on the first floor? It's so troublesome to go up to the third floor?"
Mouri Kogoro grumbled dissatisfied and followed his daughter towards the elevator.
Conan stopped where he was, with his hands in his pockets and his eyes scanning around, trying to find an acquaintance.
But after looking around for a long time, he couldn't find the man.
Um?
Isn’t Qin Zhibo here yet?
Or is it that he has discovered "Chiba"?
When Conan was surprised, he suddenly saw an unfinished drink cup on the round table facing the door of the drink shop, and there was a fashion magazine next to it.
"Um?"
Just as he was about to walk over to see what was going on, Mao Lilan's shouts came from the elevator.
"Conan! The elevator is here!"
Looking back, I saw that Maori Kogoro and Maori Lan had already gotten into the elevator.
"coming!"
Conan could only give up the idea of going to the beverage shop to find out what was going on and ran towards the elevator.
Seeing Conan gradually running away, Qin Zhibo, who was sitting in his seat, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, when he noticed Conan turning his head just now, he put on the Ring and entered the invisible state.
This way it is absolutely impossible to be discovered.
However, I still somewhat ignored this boy's curiosity. He even wanted to come over to see the taste of the unfinished drinks that were placed on the table.
Judging from the conversation between Maori and his daughter, they made an appointment with the client to discuss the entrustment at the sporting goods counter on the third floor.
In this case, it has nothing to do with the first floor where you are.
Next, you can continue to wait for the arrival of "Chiba" on the first floor with peace of mind.
…
Conan, Maori and his daughter took the elevator to the third floor. Looking around, they found that the entire third floor was actually a sports goods counter.
The client did not specify which counter on the phone, so the three of them could only start looking at the first counter one by one.
"The mystery of the long red T-shirt? Do you mean someone is going to solve this mystery?"
"About that. It should be after noon today. Has such a person ever been here?"
"Um, this... shouldn't be there, right?"
The clerk looked confused, obviously doubting Kogoro's statement.
Mouri Kogoro also had an embarrassed smile on his face. It was all because the client didn't explain clearly, so he had to go to all the stores to ask questions.
Conan, who was standing behind him with his hands in his pockets, had no idea how to find the client quickly.
At this moment, he heard a Japanese conversation with an accent coming from the counter behind him.
"I would like to ask, has this man come here to buy clothes recently?"
Judy was standing in front of the counter, folding half of the photo of herself and Akai Shuichi when they were lovers, and showing Akai Shuichi's half to the clerk.
But after the clerk took a look, he frowned and shook his head.
"I do not remember……"
"Please think about it again, this is very important to me!"
"...But even if your guest says so, I really have no impression..."
Once again receiving a negative answer, Judy's shoulders drooped in disappointment.
Although it was concluded that Akai Shuichi might come here to shop, and based on Akai Shuichi's clothing, it was speculated that he would wear sportswear that facilitates various difficult movements, it was still not easy to find him.
These store clerks are not police officers, and there is no need to remember every customer who comes to shop.
Especially Akai Shuichi doesn't look like a foreigner, and the shop assistants here are mostly older ladies who are over the age of dating, so no one remembers him.
When will we find out if this continues...
When Judy was a little confused, a voice behind her woke her up.
"Teacher Judy?"
Judy was shocked and looked back, only to realize that it was Mao Lilan who was talking to her.
"Xiaolan?!"
"You..." Judy saw Kogoro Mori and Conan next to her again, and changed her words: "Why are you here?"
Mao Lilan stepped forward and said politely: "My father's client requested to meet at this place, so Conan and I followed him."
"Teacher Judy, look at you, are you looking for someone?"
"I……"
Judy didn't know how to explain it for a moment, but luckily Kamel came up and spoke in time to round off the lie.
"Actually, he's my colleague... We came to Japan together, but he seemed to have just lost his way around here..."
"Hello, my name is Andrey Kamel, I am Judy's friend in the United States."
Facing the tall and unfriendly Kamel, Mao Lilan and Conan were a little surprised for a while.
After experiencing the last full moon incident, both of them knew that Judy's true identity was the FBI.
If Kamal is Judy's friend from the United States, then his real identity is most likely the FBI.
Intuition told Conan that when these two people appeared in the mall looking for someone, things would definitely not be simple.
Just when Conan was about to ask a sideways question, another pair of figures came over not far away.
"Xiaolan, Conan."
The two of them turned their heads following the voice and found that it was Toru Amuro...and Subaru Okiya who was sitting in a wheelchair.
"Mr. Amuro, and Mr. Okiya?"
Xiaolan was a little surprised and walked up to talk to the two of them.
Judy next to her recognized that this was the suspected gay couple in the restaurant, and was a little surprised. She bent down and asked Conan in a low voice.
"Cool kid, do you know these people?"
Conan replied in a childlike voice: "Well, they are my cousins who live near Dr. Agasa's house. Mr. Amuro was Mr. Qin's assistant before."
"So this is ah……"
Judy then thought of Qin Zhibo, whom she had not contacted for a while since Akai Shuichi disappeared.
When Shuichi Akai was first discovered missing, the FBI wanted Vince Chin to provide help.
But James said that Qin had returned to the United States, so he put the idea aside for the time being.
As a result, until now, the FBI has not exchanged opinions with the former FBI ace agent regarding the disappearance of Shuichi Akai.
Just when Judy was thinking about whether she could take some time to talk to Qin about this matter, Toru Amuro pushed Subaru Okiya over.
"By the way, young lady, I just heard that you seemed to be looking for someone?"
"Actually, to tell you the truth, my hobby is being a private detective. If you don't mind, I can provide some help."
When the careless Xiaolan heard this, she quickly said happily for Judy: "This is great! Mr. Amuro's reasoning ability is also very powerful!"
However, facing this exciting proposal, Judy smiled slightly and shook her head.
"Sorry~ My companion is only temporarily lost. We will find him soon, so I won't waste your time..."
"Xiaolan, cool kid, let's take the first step."
With that said, Judy and Kamel walked towards the other side of the corridor.
When leaving, Judy took a deep look at the man named "Okiya Subaru" sitting in the wheelchair.
