Looking at Conan getting further and further away from the bus, Kuroba Kaito raised his hand with a playful smile.
Bye~
In fact, when he got on the bus, Kuroba Kaito chose to sit on the inside by the window because he planned to jump off the bus after arriving in London.
Poor Conan thought that by sitting outside, he could just block his route.
Little did he know that the car window was Kuroba Kaito's escape route.
When the bus carrying Conan disappeared into the traffic, the phone in the pocket of Kuroba Kaito's pants suddenly vibrated.
Kuroba Kaito answered the phone, and Conan's angry voice immediately sounded on the other side.
But he soon thought that since Conan had two identities, he should also have two phones.
In fact, just as Kuroba Kaito guessed, Conan was using his own small phone to talk to the large phone held by Kuroba Kaito.
"Don't you want your passport anymore?!"
Kuroba Kaito raised the corner of his mouth teasingly, and replied frivolously: "Detective, have you forgotten?"
"I am now 'Kudo Shinichi'~"
Conan's eyes were stunned, and his brain suddenly reacted, and he quickly touched the inner pocket of his jacket.
But the passport book that was originally stored there disappeared at some point.
hateful!
He took my passport!
Beside the street lamp, Kuroba Kaito held a phone in one hand and proudly took out a passport from his butt pocket with the other hand.
Opening the passport page, the name in the information column is not Kuroba Kaito.
But Kudo Shinichi.
In fact, during this day and a half of contact, Kuroba Kaito was observing Conan all the time.
In order to prevent myself from getting the passport book, I must hold my passport book in the hands of the old man named Dr. Ali.
But similarly, in order to avoid being discovered by Mao Lilan, Dr. Ali was holding Kudo Shinichi's passport. It was clear that Kudo Shinichi was in the UK all the time. The explanation is unclear.
Therefore, Kudo Shinichi's passport was held by Conan himself.
It was precisely because Kuroba Kaito discovered this that he first used Kudo Shinichi's identity to take Conan's phone number.
Then while answering the speakerphone with Detective White Horse, he inadvertently squatted down next to Conan.
At that time, Kuroba Kaito seemed to be listening intently to what was on the phone, but in fact he had already put his dirty little hand into Conan's inner pocket...
In this way, he successfully stole Kudo Shinichi's passport.
The two of them have basically the same appearance, so even if they can't get their passports back, they can still use this passport to return to their country.
Of course, he would still like to exchange his passport if possible.
"Don't be too anxious, great detective..."
"I think we will have plenty of time to get our passports back in the future, but not now."
"Then, see you later~"
After saying that, Kuroba Kaito ignored the other party's roar and hung up the phone.
To be honest, in this wave of material exchange, Kuroba Kaito still made a little more money because he got Kudo Shinichi's phone number.
He threw it upward to answer the phone, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, someone pressed his shoulder from behind.
"Hello……"
Kuroba Kaito was so frightened that his shoulders trembled and he let out a soft cry.
He quickly turned around and glanced behind him, only to see a blond man in black standing behind him, with a pair of bright blue pupils on his slightly weathered face.
"Qin?"
Qin Zhibo nodded, looked at Kuroba Kaito's shocked face, and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Where...is this?"
Kuroba Kaito turned around and looked around and found that he was on a bridge.
He didn't know what kind of bridge it was, but he just thought that the bus would definitely not stop on the bridge, so he jumped off the bus.
"This is Vauxhall Bridge..."
Qin Zhibo explained to him, then turned his head to the other side and said into the wireless microphone in his ear: "Mary, just come here first. It seems that that person will not come today..."
"Well, I understand."
In the hotel window in the distance, although Mary agreed, she was still observing every move of Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito with a telescope.
Is it the boy named "Kudo Shinichi"?
Do they know each other?
Qin Zhibo on the bridge took off his intercom microphone and human skin mask, put them in his pocket, and then walked and talked with Kuroba Kaito.
"How's it going over there in Blychester? Has something happened?"
Kuroba Kaito glanced at Qin Zhibo in surprise, thinking that his uncle's intuition was really accurate.
"Well, when we went there in the morning, the man named Ingalls was dead in the research institute..."
After hearing this definite answer, Qin Zhibo, who had already had a premonition in his heart, couldn't help but frown.
Kuroba Kaito continued: "After we called the police, we found that Detective White Horse was also in that town..."
"White Horse Detective?"
Qin Zhibo's eyes were a little surprised. Could it be that this boy was in Brightchester because he had captured some clues about the zoo's organization?
"Detective White Horse and Conan investigated the case in their own way, and finally found out that the murderer may be a person named 'Elena Sera', who was Ingalls's classmate in college..."
Sera...Elena?
When Qin Zhibo heard this name, he was stunned for a moment.
The next second, he suddenly remembered Sera Masumi's name.
The Sera in Sera Masumi adopted Mari's original surname, which means that Akai Mari was originally called Sera Mari before she got married.
And Mary also has a sister named Elena Miyano.
It's just that Elena Miyano also changed her name after her husband's surname. Her original name was...
"Sera Elena!"
Qin Zhibo suddenly exclaimed, startling Kuroba Kaito next to him.
"What's wrong? Do you know her?"
"That's right, but I've only heard of her..."
Qin Zhibo nodded slightly, still thinking about the relationship in his mind.
Not only do the names match now, but when investigating the information about the Miyano couple, it was found that Elena Miyano did attend university in the UK.
If the person who killed Ingalls was Sera Elena, could it be...
Haibara Ai’s mother, Miyano Elena, is still alive?
But this is impossible. She and Miyano Hiroshi should have died in the laboratory fire 17 years ago.
Moreover, the fire was essentially planned by Elena Miyano to prevent the organization from continuing to use the couple for research.
Cohen, the undercover agent inserted by STK Company into the organization, also helped.
All of this was explained in the audio tape that Elena Miyano left for Miyano Shiho during her lifetime.
So it is impossible that Elena Miyano is still alive.
But if not her, who would it be?
At this time, Kuroba Kaito was also curious about what Qin Zhibo was doing here and asked: "Uncle, what are you doing on this bridge?"
"Are you here all day?"
"I……"
Qin Zhibo was about to answer that he was "fishing" when suddenly he thought of that woman.
yes!
That person is probably Belmod!
Not maybe, but definitely!
Not only does Bermod have the ability to disguise herself as well as Kuroba Kaito, but Elena Miyano is a member of the organization, so it is normal for Bermod to know her details.
It was probably her who disguised herself as Elena Miyano and then killed Ingalls.
As for the purpose of killing Ingalls, it could only be related to the research that Ingalls was currently conducting.
Qin Zhibo's expression was so serious that Kuroba Kaito next to him was afraid to interrupt his thinking.
Ingalls's research involves announcing the existence of Gherroth to the world, which is a major event that can shock the world.
The organization killed Ingalls probably to prevent this matter from being leaked in advance.
So has the organization finally taken action?
Qin Zhibo temporarily recovered his thoughts and asked Kuroba Kaito what happened next.
What happened next was the same as what happened just now. Kuroba Kaito stole Kudo Shinichi's passport, which was considered to be a temporary escape from Conan.
Detective White Horse was originally going to return to London to deal with the Hades incident, but after receiving a phone call, he gave up his mind and went elsewhere.
As for this location, Kuroba Kaito didn't ask.
This makes Qin Zhibo a little incredible. In the White Horse Detective's view, there are actually things more important than the Hades incident.
Is Detective White Horse also investigating something?
Qin Zhibo thought about it carefully. The "Spider" organized by the zoo is currently performing in London.
Since he didn't come to London, it certainly wasn't to investigate Spider.
Other than that, the only thing that could make Detective White Horse pursue him from Japan to England is the disappearing Dusk Annex.
Could it be that he has found clues about the Dusk Annex?
…
On the other side, Seriang, Mao Lilan and their group were also ready to part ways after a day of working together to find clues for the code.
After discussing it for more than an hour, everyone still didn't understand where the code indicated.
But at present, it is most likely to be Big Ben, Elephant and Castle Station, London City Hall, City of London, St. Bride's Church, Boutique Flea Street, and a random one among these six locations.
Therefore, everyone had no choice but to go to Scotland Yard first and tell the police the contents of the code.
After the police learned the content of the code, they also promised to deploy police defense at these six locations tomorrow.
At the gate of Scotland Yard, Shiliang reluctantly said goodbye to everyone.
"By the way, how long will you stay in London?"
Mao Lilan thought about it and decided that she would have to go to school on Monday, so she would leave for Japan on Sunday the day after tomorrow at the latest.
"The day after tomorrow at the latest..."
"Really?" Seriang's eyes were a little reluctant, "It's so fast..."
Just when everyone walked to the street in front of Scotland Yard, a bus happened to stop at the stop.
The car door slowly opened, and a child wearing glasses got out of the car.
"Conan?"
Mao Lilan stared at Conan in surprise, "How did you know we were here?"
Of course Conan knows.
Because Hades's code was unlocked, Kogoro Mori's thinking must have handed the clues to Scotland Yard and let the local police handle it.
It's just that Conan is in a low mood now and doesn't really want to pretend, so he doesn't express his reasoning.
At this time, looking at the bus closing the door and leaving, Mao Lilan was surprised to find that "Kudo Shinichi did not get off the bus."
"Where's Shinichi? Why are you the only one who came back, Conan?"
The thought of Kuroba Kaito's successful escape was like adding salt to Conan's wounds, and his heart became even lower.
However, in front of Mao Lilan, he still had to pretend that nothing happened, raised his head and said with his trademark innocent face.
"Brother Shinichi suddenly has a job, so he can't come back..."
"He asked me to give a message to Sister Xiaolan and Uncle Maoli, wishing you a happy stay in London."
After hearing Conan's words, Mao Lilan's eyelids drooped in despair, and she let out a lonely "Oh".
It was obviously a trip that I had been looking forward to for a long time, but I was delayed by the case for a whole day without saying anything. In the end, I left without saying goodbye as before, and even a goodbye had to be conveyed by others.
Shinichi...
You big idiot.
Mouri Kogoro, who was standing behind, saw Xiaolan's "horns" drooping a little lower, and knew that his daughter was not feeling well.
Just like when she was a police officer, Fei Yingli showed a complete understanding every time her original private life plans were disrupted for work.
But privately, Fei Yingli probably had the same expression. She wanted to complain but couldn't.
Because they know that this is all about running for justice.
Sera on the other side heard that Kudo Shinichi was not coming back, and his expression was visibly lost.
But for some reason, she felt much better when she saw Conan back.
Dr. Ali, who knew all the truth, turned his questioning eyes to Conan and asked what was going on?
Conan shook his head helplessly, as if to say: Forget it, it's really unlucky...
…
After leaving Conan and others, Sera also embarked on his way home.
When they were separated just now, Mao Lilan and Seriang agreed to go together tomorrow, but the purpose was for a real trip.
Although I visited a lot of scenic spots that day, I spent most of my time thinking about passwords and didn't even have a chance to go shopping.
Sera was happy that he would have an excuse to act together with Conan and others tomorrow.
But at the same time, she was also a little worried about whether Mary's actions were going smoothly.
If everything goes well, when she returns to the hotel room now, she will be able to see her father, whom she has not seen since birth...
Thinking of this, Seriang couldn't help but speed up his pace.
…
After returning to the hotel, standing at the door of the hotel room, Sera Masumi took a deep breath, and then knocked lightly on the door.
Dude, Dude.
After two sounds, a footsteps came to the door and opened it.
The light pushed across Seriang's face from right to left, but when the door was completely opened, the person who greeted her was still Mary.
"Mother?"
"Where's dad?"
Mary turned around and walked inside, and said calmly: "Wuwu didn't show up today. I'll see you again tomorrow..."
"Oh, that's it."
Sera closed the door in frustration. After a tiring day, she didn't even take off her coat and lay tiredly on the soft big bed of the hotel.
She put an arm on her forehead, recalling all the things that happened that day, and suddenly asked.
