Sunday, February 2nd, morning, Rice Flower Town Library.

Motota, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko had already picked out a book to read, while Conan was still picking on the book, he casually touched a book on the bookshelf in the children's area, and muttered, "How do I want to write these books?" But then again, these books are really messy, even though this is a children's area, and all the people who come and go are children, uh, well, I'm a child now, and the caretaker here is too irresponsible. ”

Conan walked to the end of the bookshelf, and found a large cardboard box in the half-closed cabinet next to him, and was curious, so he went to look through it, and found that it was a book, and he took a copy and saw that it was a hardcover version of a foreign book wrapped in plastic film, but the book was put down, and the back of the book was put inside.

At this time, a voice sounded behind Conan, "Little friend, it's not a good boy to flip things around. ”

Conan looked back and saw that it was Mr. Hideharu Tsugawa, the curator here, so he said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry." ”

"It's okay," said Director Tsugawa with a smile, "what kid doesn't have curiosity." ”

"Hey, hey. Conan touched the back of his head and laughed.

"Come, give it to me," said Director Tsugawa with a smile, "these books are not for you children." ”

"Good. Conan said as he handed the book to Director Tsugawa.

Director Tsukawa took the book, took out the cardboard box in the cabinet, and sorted it out unhurriedly.

At this time, the sound of the police car came from a distance, and it was getting closer and closer, and the three of them immediately leaned on the windowsill to look outside, and found that the police car was coming towards the library, and immediately called Conan over.

Moments later, the police car stopped downstairs in the library, and Conan noticed that the Twilight Police Department had gotten out of a car, and the one behind it was, uh, Inspector Takagi, no, Officer Takagi, this guy had finally taken off his uniform and was promoted to a suit. Since it's a search lesson......

At this time, a library staff member came over and asked Director Tsukawa to go down, and Director Tsukawa picked up the cardboard box and followed the staff out.

Conan said, "Let's go down and have a look." As he spoke, he longed to run, and the three of them hurriedly followed.

The four of them followed Director Tsugawa to the elevator, and the elevator rang.

"I think I'm overweight, and I can only seat seven people," Conan said, looking at the elevator instructions, "Let's take the stairs." ”

"Why, there are obviously seven people here, I'll count them for you. Yuan Tai pointed to the people in the elevator and said, "One ...... Seven, you see, it's seven people now, just right. ”

"Yuantai, you forgot to count yourself. Ayumi laughed.

Mitsuhiko smiled, "Didn't I tell you? ”

"Smack!" Motota slapped Mitsuhiko, "So you're talking bad about me, this is the second time." As he spoke, he knocked Mitsuhiko again.

Seeing that the other people on the elevator were all looking at the four of them, waiting for them, Conan said, "Alright, let's go." At the same time, I thought to myself, really, you can't go down to one.

By the time Conan and the four of them arrived in the library hall, Director Tsugawa had already met with the Twilight Police Department.

Seeing that the curator of Tsugawa put down the cardboard box and walked towards him, the Twilight Police Department asked, "This gentleman, are you the curator?"

Director Tsugawa said, "Yes, my surname is Tsugawa. ”

The Twilight Police Department said, "Director Tsugawa, the main reason why we are here today is for the sake of your library clerk, Mr. Kazuo Tamada. ”

Director Tsugawa said, "Mr. Tamada, he didn't come to work yesterday and didn't ask for leave, and it's the same today. ”

"Today, Mr. Tamada's wife reported that Mr. Tamada's whereabouts have been unknown since the night before yesterday, and it has been forty hours now. ”

Director Tsugawa was surprised and said, "How, how come?"

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Director Tsugawa, the night before yesterday, Mr. Tamada was working overtime with you in the library, right?"

Director Tsugawa said, "Yes, but I left earlier than Mr. Tamada that day, and I don't know anything about the rest of it." Then he asked, "By the way, could it be that someone attacked him on his way home?"

Strange, Conan thought to himself, not thinking about the library, and asking directly on the way home, this question is too strange.

"Mr. Tamada's wife said that Mr. Tamada is a very serious person, and he usually calls home from the library before going home, but he didn't call home the night before. In other words, Mr. Tamada had an accident before he got off work. Then he asked, "Do you have any signs of someone breaking into here?"

Director Tsugawa said, "No, I didn't find it. ”

Hmmm?, Conan thought to himself, this is too fast.

The Twilight Police Department said, "Then, Director Tsugawa, please allow us to search this place. ”

Director Tsugawa was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"There are two possibilities now, one is that Mr. Tamada was taken out of here by someone, and if that's the case, there's a good chance he's still alive." The other is that Mr. Tamada is still in this library, and if that is the case, it is likely that his body will remain here. ”

Director Tsugawa said, "I see. So, Officer, please take care of it. ”

The Twilight Police Department said, "Thank you." Then he instructed his subordinates: "Search carefully, and don't let go of any place where you can hide people." Be careful not to break the book. ”

"Yes. "The men of the Twilight Police Department took the order.

Conan and the four of them followed behind Officer Takagi, and when the Twilight Police Department couldn't see it, Conan immediately stepped forward and pulled the corner of Officer Takagi's clothes.

Officer Takagi looked back and smiled, "It's Conan." And you, Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko. ”

"Congratulations. Conan laughed.

"yes. Ayumi laughed.

"Heh, heh, thank you. Officer Takagi smiled and straightened his clothes.

Yuan Tai said: "But I still think you are a little handsome in uniform." ”

"It's probably the clothes that make it work. Ayumi said, "This earthy yellow suit is a bit unworthy of Officer Takagi." ”

Yuan Tai said: "It turns out that the vision is not good. ”

Mitsuhiko said, "Maybe I don't have a girlfriend to help." ”

Is it really that bad? Takagi sighed in his heart, maybe it would be a wise decision to let Officer Yumi knock him off, but I have already given a sum to the Good Mood Hotel, plus a sum of money to buy this outfit, what is the interest rate of the loan now?

"Officer Takagi, hey, Officer Takagi," Conan called back Officer Takagi, "Why do the police suspect that Mr. Tamada had an accident here?

"Hmm......" Officer Takagi was embarrassed.

Conan asked, "Are you suspicious that Director Tsugawa harmed Mr. Tamada because Director Tsugawa was the last person to see Mr. Tamada?"

"Uh......" Officer Takagi was taken aback.

Motota asked, "Is there anything suspicious about Director Tsugawa?"

Mitsuhiko said: "It must be embezzlement of public funds. ”

Ayumi asked, "Really?"

"Did the police find out that Director Tsukawa's income and expenses did not match?" Conan asked, "Do you think Mr. Tamada discovered Director Tsukawa's gray secret and was victimized by Director Tsugawa because of it?"

"Ah......h

"That's right, it seems. Conan said, touching his chin.

"So, is there really an incident?" said Yuan Tai with an excited smile, "The ...... of the Young Detective Group"

Ayumi and Mitsuhiko laughed together with Motota, "Dispatch!" After saying that, the three of them ran away.

"Hey, Officer Takagi," Conan asked, "did you know about yesterday's incident with the diplomat?"

"I don't know much. Officer Takagi said.

"That's none of your business. Conan waved his hand and left.

"What a kid these days......" Officer Takagi muttered with a smile in his eyes.

Suddenly, a loud roar from the Twilight Police Department sounded behind him, "Takagi! What are you doing standing here, why don't you go and help!"

"Yes, yes!" Takagi turned and saluted and ran, yelling at me for the first time, and these little guys killed me.

Two hours later, at about 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the police, who had found nothing, closed the team and left.

"Conan, is it true that what you said is that there is an incident here?" said Motota, "we haven't found anything here. ”

"I don't know. Conan said, strange, judging from the words of Director Tsugawa and the results of the police investigation, Director Tsugawa is very suspicious, and the place of the incident should be here, could it be shipped out?

Mitsuhiko said, "Let's hurry up and write a report." ”

"I'm a little hungry," Ayumi said, "let's go get something to eat first." ”

"Yes. Yuan Tai raised his hands and smiled.

Well, Conan touched his pocket, it was a new change of clothes, and he forgot to bring money, so he was embarrassed to say, "Well, I forgot to bring my wallet." ”

"Leave it to me, I just got the money from the bank yesterday," Motota said with a smile, "I'm going to have a good meal today." ”

In the afternoon, Rice Flower Library.

When Conan was in a daze after writing his book report, he saw Yamazaki come in.

Yamazaki greeted the three of them at the other table, walked up to Conan and said, "Ran, please sent it." As he spoke, he took out a wallet and handed it over.

"Thank you. Conan said.

Looking at the book on the table with a scarecrow on it, Yamazaki sat down and smiled, "The Scarecrow of the Wizard of Oz, this is for you." ”

"What do you mean?" Conan said angrily, "to say that I only have my brain left, or that I have straw in my head?" ”

"I didn't say that. Yamazaki laughed, "I heard that you actually went to steal alcohol and drink." ”

"Lan told you that too. Conan said.

Yamazaki smiled: "Yes, Lan please me, I must keep an eye on you when you go to work." ”

Conan gave Yamazaki a pair of white eyes, "I suspect that the wine is the cause of the changes in my body." ”

Yamazaki laughed, "I guessed, but can't you just tell Dr. Asa to buy a bottle? ”

"This ......," Conan muttered.

Yamazaki asked, "Do you still doubt the cake?"

Conan said, "Yes, only these two are special things, and the others have been eaten." Then he asked, "Can you?"

"It's not a cake, the pharmacology of the cake is experimental, those special things will basically be metabolized within twelve hours, and if you have an early attack, fifteen or six hours have passed when you have a seizure, so it's definitely not a cake. Yamazaki smiled, "You still drink bars, not necessarily 'white dry', high-level spirits are fine, it should be high-level spirits, which stimulates your body." ”

Conan raised his triangular eyes and asked, "Have you asked Dr. Asai?"

"Yes, I went there when I came back from the Metropolitan Police Department. Yamazaki smiled, "Dr. Asai said......"

"Wait," Conan asked, "what happened to Mr. Tsujimura?"

"Well, since you don't want to hear about Dr. Asai, I won't talk about it. Yamazaki said, "As for the incident of Mr. Tsujimura, I heard that the police department said that it had been characterized as instigating suicide, and Mr. Tsujimura said that he let his wife do it because he couldn't bear to do it himself. ”

"Good rhetoric. Conan asked, "What about the motive?"

Yamazaki said: "The motivation is that the official road has not been smooth in the past few years, and the party a while ago, I found that the people who were at the same time as him were better than him, so I was disheartened and like that." ”

"Good reason. Conan asked, "What about the result?"

"Mrs. Tsujimura Koe went home, and the incident was over. Yamazaki smiled, "But a new event has appeared, and it's still a big one." ”

"What's the incident?" asked Conan, a little excited.

"Let me tell you a piece of news for free, the Tsuji Village family is a new member of the party, and Mrs. Tsuji Village Gongjiang chose to do it at this time, which may also mean to take revenge on the new party members who helped the Tsuji village family and dealt with her ex-husband. Yamazaki asked, "Can you guess which side Lady Gongjiang is targeting?"

"It's about reputation, and it's trying to make the reputation of the new party worse. Conan said, then asked in surprise, "Wait a minute, you mean that this matter will be publicized in order to expand the scope of the attack on the new Progressive Party?"

"Yes, it is estimated that Mr. Tsujimura and Mrs. Tsujimura Gongjiang will be exposed. Yamazaki said with a smile, "The Twilight Police Department called again to say that he heard that the report he wrote this morning about this incident was transferred by the Information Management Division of the General Affairs Department of the Metropolitan Police Department and handed over to the Intelligence Office of the General Affairs Division of the National Police Agency. As he spoke, he patted Conan's shoulder, whose face had become very bad, and smiled, "I hope they won't ask Shinichi Kudo, who solved the incident." ”

Conan lay on the table and said to himself weakly, "How can this be?"

"Now you know you're worried?" Yamazaki said with a smile.

Conan perked up, "Did you do something?"

Yamazaki smiled: "I told the Twilight Police Department that there was a plane from Shi Feng Security that flew to California last night, and there was an art museum where thieves were bad and needed a detective, and Kudo Shinichi couldn't come back in a short time." ”

"I said it earlier, I was almost scared to death. Conan laughed, "It's really rare to help me lie to them." ”

"I'm not lying. Yamazaki laughed, "I didn't lie to them." ”

"Uh," Conan said with a grin, "you guy." ”

"Okay, I'm leaving, you can play slowly here. Yamazaki laughed. ……
