Chapter 176 On-site Investigation

Knock knock. √∟ Top Novel,

A knock on the door burst into my ears. When I opened the door, I saw a smart woman in a dark purple OL outfit standing in front of me, her long dark brown hair coiled behind her head, a revolver around her waist to prove that she was a police officer with a gun, and a work card on her chest indicated her identity. Kiyoaki Ito (thanks to Gin for watching the officer) is the name of the female police officer in front of me.

"Mr. Minya. When Ito saw me, he immediately greeted me slightly. After all, it was directly assigned by the thin wolf, and this female police officer named Ito Qingming was very respectful when she saw me, and she fully understood her position.

"Hmm. I looked at the female officer in front of me and nodded. "Thank you. ”

"Where is the word Mr. Minya. Ito Qingming said politely. "So, what do you need me to do?"

"Well, take me out from here and don't let any surveillance facilities catch me in the meantime. And make sure that no one will come in here for three hours, of course, there is no way to really catch up with the chief of the criminal department to come back. Then follow me and quietly take me back to this room a few hours later. "I didn't bother Ito too much, after all, she's only a captain now.

"Yes, I know, please wait a minute, Mr. Mingya, I'll go and arrange it. Greetings again, Ito Qingming left here, and about ten minutes, Ito Qingming pulled a cleaning truck to my side.

"Mr. Mingya, I have wronged you. Ito smiled at me apologetically.

"Well...... It's a bit ugly, but it's a good way to do it. I raised the corners of my mouth and got into the cleaning van. Ito pushed me to the underground garage and drove me out of the garage. At the same time, a no-entry sign was erected in the lounge.

"Mr. Minya, where are we going?" Ito asked me in the police car.

"Go around the Spray Bar twice. I drew a stack of documents from my necklace and muttered at the same time. "Give me another map. Drive a little slower. ”

"Okay. As she spoke, Ito pulled out a map from the visor on the roof of the car and handed me the pen she pinned to her chest.

"Hmm......" I took the map and analyzed. As I said when I was in Tsutenkaku. On the map, the farthest way to escape is north, with a double line that stretches all the way to the fourth street and then a one-way street. Considering the speed of the police, it takes about 10 minutes to escape. If it happens that the police are nearby, there are still about three minutes left. If it was an adult's body, I would just drive away, but now I'm a child, and I'll be carrying a baggage, so I can't drive. Thinking of this, I gently nodded my forehead with my pen.

Taxi bar. It will never be detected, but it is too dangerous to find a taxi at the scene of the crime. What if there is no car nearby? Wouldn't he be able to run away, not to mention that he still had a burden with him.

It's not reliable to ask Ito Qingming to send me? After the incident, most of the police force in the police station will be transferred, especially Conan's side is also using police force because of continuous killings, and it will definitely be very tense at that time, and the chance of escape will be greatly reduced. And Ito has other uses that can't be wasted on escaping.

Tell the thin wolf to transfer manpower again? No. After all, Kansai is someone else's territory, and the reason for letting the thin wolf evacuate people today was to avoid unnecessary contact. If you really accidentally found suspicious traces, implicated in the skinny wolf. But there was another wave of hatred, and by the way, I still owed the government a favor.

"Mr. Minya. It's here. "Just as I was still agonizing about how to escape, Ito interrupted me softly. and motioned for me to issue the next directive.

"Uh-huh. Great work. I sat up slightly and looked out the window. The big blue sign was erected in front of my eyes. Look around the bar. On the four sides of the corner, except for the Langhua Bar, the other three are all food and drink-based shops. In the evening, there will be no shortage of visitors. When the time comes, the movement here is a little bigger, which will cause a crowd of onlookers, and maybe it will be much easier to escape.

"Let's go around the area. "After watching for a while. I said to Ito.

"Yes. "Get orders. Ito slowly started the car. And I followed the car and kept looking around, observing the movement of the monitors near the surrounding buildings.

The car walked around the street near the bar twice, and when I finally stopped my pen, Ito saw that I was relaxed, and I also opened his mouth to talk to me. She also reported to me what she knew about the bar. "It's been fifteen years since the Splash Bar was established. About six years ago, it was swallowed by Akano Yu, and it became his private domain. Due to the existence of the soul, this bar has always been very stable. The reason why the other three restaurants were able to compete with him here was not because they were competitive enough, but because Yuichi Akano allowed them to develop in order to hide their eyes. ”

"Hasn't anyone noticed anything wrong with this bar for so long?" I asked rhetorically, flipping up the map.

"Even if you find out, it's useless. Their darkroom is on the third basement floor. The first and second floors are all regular bars and catering industries. On the basement floor is the discotheque. The lower two floors are special occupation places. The third basement floor is where they trade. Ito frowned slightly. "So far, the police have only learned about the contents of the second layer. Because the power of the Red Lian King Snake in Japan is too strong, and there has been no major mess, the benefits of the above have not been less. Even if Director Hattori wanted to pull out the nail himself, it would be difficult to do so. ”

"Oh, do you know a lot?" I smiled casually.

"Where, Mr. Minya said with a smile. Ito Qingming knew that what he said was inappropriate, and hurriedly smiled apologetically. "Since I came to work here at the behest of my boss, I have been working hard to collect all kinds of information. As for the director's desire to pull out the fangs of the Red Lian King Snake, I also heard about it by chance at a celebration. ”

"Hmm......" I thought as I dragged my chin as a plan quickly came to mind. "Ito, you can get your hands on the electronic eyes of all the buildings around here, right?"

"Yes, I can get it. But if you don't have an order from your superiors, you can take it at will......" Ito Qingming was a little embarrassed.

"Then create the conditions of the zào directive. The corners of my mouth lifted slightly. "The survey is over, let's go back. When I get back, I'll tell you more about the next steps. ”

"Yes. ”

In the evening, with the help of Ito, I returned to the police station early and lay down in the rest room of Ginjiro Toyama. Actually, I've been here for more than two hours. It's just a rare rest, and I don't want to call Conan and them too soon, but I really lie down here and sleep a little bit in preparation for the night's action. It was about half past six when I received a call from Xiaolan.

"Moses Moses. ”

"Kaoru-chan, are you awake?"

"Hmm. I'm already up, Sister Xiaolan. I was just wondering why I was here. You're calling. ”

"I'm sorry. We just went out and got some business, so we left you to sleep at the police station. Wait a minute, we'll be there soon. ”

"Hi~~"

After hanging up the phone, I dialed Shizuru and Mary to say hello, and it wasn't long before I heard Lan's knock on the door.

"Kaoru-chan, we're here. Xiaolan opened the door and smiled at me. Of course, Xiaolan was the only one who came.

"Hmm. I responded. "Where have you been, Sister Xiaolan. ”

"We followed my dad and Hattori to investigate the case. It's just that there hasn't been much progress yet, but Hattori said that the rest of the matter would be left to him, so he asked Kazuha to take us to his house first. So we'll pick you up first. I'm going to go to Hattori's house later, and I heard that the mother of the persuasion department makes fish hot pot and it tastes great. ”

"Well, well, let's go. Sitting up from the couch, I let Lan take her hand and walked out of the police station.

Came to the parking lot downstairs. I saw Officer Otaki and his father smoking cigarettes outside the car, and Ye sat in the passenger seat, while Conan was lying on the window behind us and watching us walk by. Got in the car. Before I could speak, Conan leaned over to me.

"Kaoru. Ask you something. ”

"Don't listen. I narrowed my half-moon eyes

“…… Didn't you wake up? Do you still have the gas to get up?" Conan was speechless.

"Didn't Hattori solve it? Just sit back and wait. I said angrily.

"This ...... All right. Conan said. After saying that, Conan looked out the window again. The brief silence lasted less than thirty seconds...... "Oh, no, I'll have to ask." Otherwise, you can't rest assured. ”

“…… I'm really convinced, can't you sit quietly for a while? "I helplessly held my forehead. "Say it. ”

"Do you know that Nichiro Numabuchi knows?"

"Who?!" I was shocked.

"Shh......h Whisper. Conan hurriedly made a silencing gesture to me. Then I looked at Xiaolan next to me, and saw that Xiaolan was still happily talking to Kazuha without knowing what. Dad was napping in the car. Didn't notice my conversation with Conan at all.

"Whew...... OK. Conan breathed a sigh of relief. Then he found a new continent looking at me. "Looks like you've heard of this man. ”

"Well, yes. My brow furrowed slightly. "Isn't he on the run?"

"Well, now he's wanted. And we analyzed that Nichiro Numabuchi has something to do with this case, and it is very likely that he is the culprit of this serial murder case. ”

"Cut ......," I said dismissively. Genichiro Numabuchi. I've really seen this person, and it's still in Shiho's real yàn room. That's right, this Numumbuchi Ichiro used to be a member of the organization, but his heart was ruthless enough, but his ability was insufficient, so he was handed over to the scientific research department and let him be a real guinea pig. And once when I went to the research institute to look for Shiho, I once met this man, who was trying to escape, but was stunned by my murderous anger, and then I stumbled and was pressed directly to the ground. In other words, this person has seen me and Shiho, and of course this refers to us as adults. It's just that I didn't expect him to escape now.

"I used to see him on a wanted warrant. "Of course, I can't sue Sù Conan Numabuchi Ichiro for having something to do with the organization, and he's wanted now anyway, so he doesn't pose a threat to me or Shiho at all. What's more, now that I've become smaller, I believe that Nichiro Numabuchi no longer recognizes me. Of course, if he does recognize me, then look for a chance to kill him. (To be continued.) )
