Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 798 Preparations before the "Decisive Battle"

The cold wind was bleak, and when I looked back suddenly, the woman was in a dimly lit place.

As soon as he shook off his troublesome tail, lighted a cigarette indifferently, and walked out of the phone booth, he saw two familiar faces.

One was an elementary school student I met in the bus hijacking incident.

Akai Shuichi still remembers this elementary school student wearing glasses, aiming at a bus robber with the watch in his hand, as if a needle was shot out of it, and the robber passed out immediately, like an anesthetic needle or something.

It's a bit like some kind of high-tech prop for Bond in the movie 007.

Of course, what is in the movie is art after all, and it is difficult to realize it in reality.

After all, even the real FBI does not have such useful props, but this elementary school student has it, and his background must be not simple.

In addition, Akai Shuichi was also deeply impressed by the unyielding eyes of this elementary school student when facing the gangster.

Another face, although it also appeared on that bus, but the two have a longer relationship.

Looking at the tear stains in the corners of the horned girl's eyes, Akai Shuichi could not help sighing as another woman was crying in his mind.

"Why are you crying again?"

"Why are you always crying?"

When Mao Lilan heard this, she felt a little underestimated, so she quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and replied angrily, "Can't I cry?"

Seeing Mao Lilan's aggressive appearance, Akai Hideichi was stunned for a moment, the corner of his mouth with a cigarette in his mouth slightly raised.

"Neither"

"I just suddenly thought of a woman who is very similar to you, pretending to be calm on the surface, but crying behind her back."

"Simply a silly woman."

After finishing speaking, Akai Shuichi calmly put his hands in his pockets and walked past Mao Lilan and Conan.

Silly woman?

Mao Lilan's cheeks were slightly red, and she didn't understand why she was taught by a man who had only met a few times?

Conan looked up and watched the change of Mao Lilan's expression. In the cold weather, for some reason, he felt a green light on his head, and quickly asked, "Sister Xiaolan, do you know the person just now?"

"Huh?" Mao Lilan came back to her senses, and just about to answer Conan's question, another figure ran over panting in the snow.

Mao Lilan and Conan took a closer look, both a little surprised.

"Mr. Anshi! Are you here to pick up Mr. Qin?"

Mao Lilan didn't know that Toru Amuro had asked Qin Zhibo for a week's leave, and thought that Toru Amuro, as an assistant, had come to pick up Qin Zhibo.

Toru Amuro was wearing a white denim jacket and sweater, which matched the snow-covered sky very well.

He looked anxious, and regardless of Mao Lilan's question, he asked directly: "Xiao Lan, did you see a tall man wearing a black knitted hat passing by here just now?"

Hearing Amuro Toru's question, Mao Lilan was stunned, hesitating in his heart, and did not answer immediately.

But the undisguised eyes had already betrayed her, and in the next second, Toru Amuro saw the answer from her erratic eyes.

As a result, Toru Amuro, who got the answer, hurriedly chased in the direction that Mao Lilan's pupils were subconsciously aiming at, without even saying goodbye.

After Amuro ran away, Conan asked Mao Lilan in confusion, "Sister Xiaolan, why didn't you tell Mr. Amuro the whereabouts of that person?"

Mao Lilan was also a little stunned. Logically speaking, she should help Toru Amuro, who is Qin Zhibo's assistant.

But just now, my brain subconsciously felt that it was not good to do so, so I chose to remain silent.

Facing Conan's inquiry, Mao Lilan told the story of his acquaintance with Akai Shuichi.

Mao Lilan and Akai Shuichi met for the first time during a trip to New York last year, before the time when the abandoned building encountered a road murderer.

Kudo Shinichi went to help Mao Lilan find the limited edition Sharon girl's handkerchief that he had accidentally lost. Mao Lilan, who was waiting at the spot, met Akai Shuichi who came to persuade him to leave.

At that time, Mao Lilan was still intimidated by Akai Shuichi's waist-length hair and strong aura, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

Akai Shuichi's FBI partner came to report the situation, and this indirectly resolved the misunderstanding.

However, Mao Lilan also learned the identity of Akai Shuichi, a federal investigator.

It’s just that a year has passed since this little episode. Although Mao Lilan still has an impression of Shuichi Akai’s face, she has no memory of Shuichi Akai’s identity.

It wasn't until the New York dream not long ago, when I was constantly reincarnated in the dream that seemed to be dominated, that I recalled that scene again.

"So I think, as an FBI, he might have some mission in Japan."

"If Mr. Amuro finds him, it may cause some unnecessary troubles?"

Mao Lilan was also a little ambiguous, but felt that it was not good for detectives to interfere with the police's actions without authorization.

Whether it is the Japanese police or the American police, they should all exist to maintain fairness and order.

But after thinking about it, Mao Lilan still felt that it was a bit inappropriate to do so.

Since Amuro Toru is Qin Zhibo's assistant, it is very likely that Anshi's behavior was also instructed by Qin Zhibo.

It is possible that criminals hired detectives to thwart the fbi's actions.

Mao Lilan remembered the commissions his father had encountered before, and criminals often used Mori Kogoro as a gunman.

Next time we meet, explain this matter clearly to Mr. Qin.

Determined to pay attention, Mao Lilan continued to hold Conan's little hand and walked towards home.

While Conan was walking, he was seriously thinking about the information he had just obtained.

Shuichi Akai is the fbi?

Conan recalled the bus incident, Haibara said that there was a "smell of alcohol" on the bus that frightened her.

For this reason, Conan used Kudo Shinichi's identity afterwards to ask Megure for the list of passengers who came to the bus hijacking incident, and inquired about the identities of everyone one by one.

In the end, only Shuichi Akai's identity was the most suspicious. He had neither professional history nor detailed address, as if he appeared out of thin air.

On the whole, the person on that bus who is most likely to make Huihara Ai notice the "smell of alcohol" is actually Shuichi Akai.

Akai Shuuichi, his identity should not be.

Returning to the office with Mao Lilan, while Ome was going to the kitchen to prepare ingredients, Conan left a note and quickly slipped out of the office.

He ran towards Dr. Ali's house while thinking about what happened just now.

In fact, one way to confirm whether Shuichi Akai is the FBI is to ask Qin Zhibo directly.

Qin Zhibo is a former FBI investigator, this is something Conan can confirm.

After Qin Zhibo came back from the United States, when Conan and Yukiko talked on the phone, they learned about this matter from the phone.

In fact, after getting smaller, when the couple came back to visit Conan for the first time, Yusaku Kudo recognized Qin Zhibo, who was Vince Qin, a former part-time shooting coach and an FBI investigator.

It's just that Yusaku Kudo felt that Qin might be performing some mission in Japan, so he didn't reveal his identity.

Later, although he told Conan that the shooting range in Hawaii ten years ago was the opportunity for the two families to get acquainted, he did not mention Qin Zhibo's job.

Later, when Qin Zhibo went to the United States, he met the Kudos and his wife. From getting along, he learned that Qin Zhibo had resigned from the FBI and had no mission in Japan.

Kudo Yukiko then told Conan Qin Zhibo's former FBI status.

When he learned of this, Conan's brain was very shocked.

But on second thought, the background is American Hawaiian and a top student who graduated from Miskatonic University.

It's a pity that this attribute is not suitable for FBI with marksmanship, terrible observation and reasoning ability, and effective kung fu without martial arts.

In other words, only the work of the fbi can hone these abilities.

Therefore, Qin Zhibo is a former fbi, which is unexpected but reasonable.

If you want to find out the identity of an fbi, please ask another fbi is the most direct and effective way.

Although Qin Zhibo is a former FBI, Conan knows that his ex-colleagues usually give him face, just like Megure usually gives Mori Kogoro face.

Just search Akai Shuichi's name in the FBI system, and you will know whether he is a member of the black organization.

But how to speak to Qin Zhibo?

If Qin Zhibo is asked to help with the investigation, Qin Zhibo will inevitably be involved in the vortex of the black organization.

Regarding Qin Zhibo's attitude, Conan has long known about it.

Although Qin Zhibo met in Hawaii ten years ago and recognized the current "Conan" as "Kudo Shinichi", Qin Zhibo never took the initiative to ask the specific reason for his shrinkage.

One possibility is that you want to be wise and protect yourself, and you don't want to meddle in other people's business.

Another possibility is to let Conan take the initiative to explain the situation and seek help.

But no matter what, Conan felt that he couldn't pull Qin Zhibo into the gang at such a non-essential time.

As Dr. A Li said, the more people who know about black organizations, the more dangerous they are.

Conan: "."

Now that there is no time to deal with Shuichi Akai, it is still time to find out who Taku Itakura is trading with.

If the opponent is really a black organization, maybe the winner will be decided tonight!

From the Mori office in the fifth-chome to Dr. Ali's house in the second-chome, Conan patted the snowflakes off his body.

"Shinichi! You came just in time. The invention I have been studying for a long time has been completed~"

"Besides, I also helped you make a backup tracking glasses. From now on, you can say goodbye to battery anxiety!"

Dr. A Li held the new glasses in his hand, his face was full of pride.

But Conan's mind is now full of night deals, and he doesn't have the mind to ask about the latest invention. He just wants to quickly discuss countermeasures with Dr. Ali.

"By the way, why didn't you see Huiyuan?"

"Xiao Ai should be taking a bath now."

The corner of Conan's mouth twitched, showing an inappropriate smile, "Taking a bath. That would be the best."

Hearing Conan's words about tigers and wolves, Dr. A Li hurriedly advised severely: "I said Shinichi, do you mean you want to peek at Xiao Ai taking a bath?"

what?

Conan showed half-moon eyes, very helpless.

Come on, how could I possibly be interested in that little kid's body?

When he came to the basement of the doctor's house, Conan told Dr. Ali the real purpose of coming here.

Telling the experiences of the day one by one, Dr. Ali was also shocked.

"What is the software that has to be abandoned for the well-being of all mankind?"

As a tech geek, Dr. Ali is very interested in the software mentioned in Takuo Itakura's diary.

Conan was more concerned about the regular contact between the other party and Itakura Taku at night, so he quickly asked Dr. Ali to get dressed, and he was going to do something big tonight.

"As long as we rush to Itakura Zhuo's villa right now, get the software he designed, and then use the computer in the villa to send a letter to persuade the other party to trade before tomorrow, we should be able to catch them on the spot."

After hearing Conan's plan, Dr. Ali frowned, vaguely feeling that the plan was a bit reckless.

If the other party is squatting in Itakura Zhuo's villa, wouldn't it be a trap for himself?

And even if you cheat the other party, you may not be able to ensure that they are caught.

The most important thing is that there is no definite evidence that these people who are in contact with Takuo Itakura are black organizations.

But looking at the iconic smile on Conan's face facing the challenge, Dr. Ali also understood that Conan had endured for so long, and he also had unspeakable pain in his heart.

After all, they are the children of neighbors who grew up watching them grow up, and the relationship between the two can be said to be the same as that of father and son.

Therefore, Dr. Ali decided to risk his life to accompany the gentleman.

"Then do you know where Takuo Itakura's villa is?"

"Well, when the three clients were at uncle's office during the day, they had already given the address of Itakura Zhuo's villa."

Conan pondered, "It's in Gunma County"

After explaining the destination, just as Conan was about to leave, Dr. Ali quickly stopped him, "Wait a minute, Shinichi."

"Huh?" Conan stood still.

Dr. A Li turned around and took out a belt from the cardboard box in the corner, and began to introduce it.

"It's called the 'Anywhere Shooting Belt' and it's my latest invention."

"At first glance, this is just an ordinary belt"

Speaking of this, Conan looked at the exaggerated shape of the belt, which looked a bit like the belt of Kamen Rider, and couldn't help complaining in his heart.

can not tell

Dr. Ali reached out and pressed the button above the metal launch port of the belt, and a football was ejected from it and fell to the ground.

Seeing this artifact, Conan, who always draws inferences from one instance, immediately thought of its purpose.

"Great! With this, no matter how many gangsters you have, you can catch them all in one go!"

In Conan's mind, he seemed to have seen two footballs wedged on the faces of gin and vodka respectively.

But only 10 seconds after the football hit the ground, it collapsed to the point where only a piece of soft rubber remained.

Dr. Ali explained in detail how to use this thing. As long as the football leaves the belt for 10 seconds, it will deflate.

But the advantage is that it can identify the gas in the filling, and it can expand to the maximum size of a hot air balloon.

"Oh? This is quite convenient!"

Conan looked excited. Although he didn't quite understand Dr. Ali's technical principles, it sounded cool.

Just turning around and thinking about it, Conan discovered Huadian.

"By the way, didn't Qin Zhibo ask you to help study that stone?"

"You invented this belt during this time?"

Speaking of this, Dr. A Li scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "Actually, I don't have the equipment for ore analysis here, and I need to purchase it from abroad."

"It takes at least a week to ship from overseas to Japan"

"Oh." Conan nodded. Anyway, studying stones doesn't sound like a rush, and it's okay to take it slow.

"Doctor, without further ado, let's go now!"

The entrance of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

"Ah!"

Walking from the warm environment to the bleak cold wind, Qin Zhibo's nose was not used to it for a while, and he sneezed.

It took a full hour and a half to finish the transcript and watch the interrogation of the prisoner.

Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about what kind of transportation he should take to go back to the office, the phone in his arms suddenly rang.

Ding--

There was a vibration in the left pocket, it was a new phone ringing.

This is a call from the Black Organization.
