Chapter Twenty-Four: We're Together

"What!?walkie-talkie doesn't work?" Gunda was shocked at first after saying the news, and then looked at Matsuda: "Mr. Policeman, what else are you going to do?"

"Do I still need to ask you?" was slammed by the mountain once, Matsuda was already very unhappy, and was despised by the beautiful woman: "Now I need everyone to gather together, let's go to the lounge." ”

"You're all detectives and have a lot of experience in dealing with this, but I need to tell you one thing. Here, I am the only policeman, and I am responsible for your lives. Matsuda swept over the detectives in the room.

"Of course, it's not practical not to let you investigate anything, and forcibly stopping you will sneak away, so let's investigate together. Now it's time to share information. Matsuda spread his hands outstretched: "You can hide everything you know, but I warn you that the murderer could be any of us." If you're hiding something and you're suspected of being a murderer, don't blame anyone else. ”

"The murderers are only among us, and they are not included?" "Gunda was a little upset with Matsuda's orders.

"I don't think anyone will doubt the two children, Ran and Conan. Matsuda said confidently, "As for Miss Maid, she is just an ordinary person. ”

"Are you sure?" Matsuda's affirmative tone made Motegi unhappy, "As a bridge between us and the mysterious person, she can easily do a lot of things. ”

"Isn't the most important thing as a detective to have the insight to see the essence of things?" Matsuda sat down and leaned back: "Detective Gunda has a charming temperament that Miss Maid does not have, Miss Maid is just an ordinary girl, she does not have the background to buy this annex." The murderer can only be you detectives who drive luxury cars and pursue materialistic desires and luxuries. ”

"So, you don't think the Maori detective could be the murderer?" Chima asked. Who would be brain-dead enough to take their daughters and children to commit crimes.

"I trust him more than you. Matsuda answered this question indirectly.

"How can we trust you? Gunda sneered: "I'm not mistaken, Officer Matsuda turned out to be an expert in the explosive ordnance disposal team of the mobile team, right? ”

"Are you saying I blew up your car?" Matsuda looked at Gunda. You won't lie to me and ask me for compensation, right?

"At least when we were all in this lounge, you were alone on the second floor. Gunda said politely: "As far as time is concerned, you have a chance." ”

"It won't take three minutes to get out of the car, put the finished bomb in the car, and then walk back, who can you rule out?" Matsuda asked rhetorically.

"Stop arguing meaninglessly, since everyone is suspicious, let's stop arguing for now. Chima spoke at this time: "I think the most important thing now is to find a way out, so it is better for everyone to find out where the treasure is first according to what that person said, so that you can also have a bargaining chip with him." ”

"Well, it looks like you guys don't like this kind of intelligence-sharing bargaining chips either. Matsuda also gave up: "In that case, for everyone's safety, let's search in groups." I, Motegi, and Mori are three adult men divided into three groups and matched with the three of you, so as to ensure that there are really outsiders who are watching and not being harmed. Of course, if the murderer is among us, then you can ask for yourselves. ”

"In that case, then I'll be with the Maori detectives, old woman. Chima was the first to decide on his teammates: "It's not short to be with Detective Matsuri, and I agree with Officer Matsuda in my heart, Detective Mori is a trustworthy person." ”

Then you questioned him just now? Matsuda pursed his lips and did not speak.

"I don't need teammates who are holding me back. Haruki Motegi was not satisfied with Matsuda's arrangement.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to hold you back. The white horse smiled and said, "And isn't the grouping just for us not to act alone? ”

"Well, look at you're not particularly annoying. Motegi approved of Hakuba. As far as he is concerned, although he admits Chima's reasoning ability, this place needs more than a flexible mind like Hakuba, and his physical fitness will not be a drag. As for Hakuba being a murderer, Motegi is not afraid to fight anyone.

Senma may have chosen Kogoro because he understood this point of Motegi, rather than the more familiar Motegi. Matsuda and Motegi are both the same kind of people, they are not afraid of danger, and the more dangerous the place, the more interested they are, and it is not suitable for her as an old woman. As for the gun field, the woman seems to know what she said, and it is better to have less contact.

"I don't like to be in a group with you, it's just that I can't help it. "Gunda actually wants to be in a group with Chima the most, so it's good to see if you can solve your doubts.

"Now that we're together, we might as well let go a little bit. Matsuda lewdly used some obscure words: "First of all, you and I will first prove our innocence to the locality." ”

"How are you going to prove it?" Gunda looked at Matsuda's smiling face, "That intelligence sharing that you just said in the house?"

"Forget it, anyway, you all know the way I know. Matsuda strode ahead: "The murderer's method of planting the bomb is more professional, but in some places it is very rough. It's people who are often exposed to this kind of thing, but who haven't studied it specifically, so it's better to be a detective. ”

"Just because of this, you suspect us?" Gunda followed Matsuda's footsteps and retorted: "There are not just a few of us in this world, maybe there are really other people hiding here waiting for us to come." ”

"You say maybe?" Matsuda looked at Gunda amusedly, focusing on the two words maybe. Generally speaking, it may fall into the category of small probabilities and is not the first choice. Gunda also thinks that there are no outsiders, and the murderer is among them?

glared at the smug Matsuda, and the gun field was not hiding it: "I have a goal, but I still have to ask you where you plan to investigate." ”

"There are three days to walk. Matsuda stretched out three fingers: "First, re-investigate the cause of Ogami's death, second, search for the so-called treasure, and third, search the entire annex." ”

"Then let's go to the restaurant. "Gunda passed Matsuda and walked to the place where Ogami died.

"Hey, there's a lot to figure out. Matsuda caught up with the gunda: "How many are you here? Before or after Ojo?"

"When I came, the big Porsche and the Mercedes were already there. Gunda replied.

"In other words, before you came, Dashang and the murderer were already there, as well as Hakuba. Matsuda muttered, "Maybe that little guy from Hakuba has found something." ”

"How can you be sure that Hakuba arrived before me?" asked Gunda.

"Because you don't know how the white horse came to be. Matsuda said, "Hakuba's nanny drove here and left without you noticing, so you don't live up to your title of detective." "The essence of a detective is extraordinary observation and a grasp of subtleties, no matter how dull he is, he will not fail to notice the arrival and departure of a car.

Gunda was silent. Matsuda is worthy of being a famous criminal policeman, and he is not weaker than any detective at all.

"Your luminol spray?" Matsuda said suddenly.

"Huh? Of course you don't just take that thing with you. Gunda said perfunctorily.

"There's a reason Motegi agrees to partner with Hakuba. Matsuda said thoughtlessly: "When we first entered the house, you brought luminol spray, and Hakuba with his eagle was not idle, but observing the environment. ”

"Compared to the last of us to arrive, you and Dashang have plenty of time to get to know this annex. Matsuda said, "You may have something that we don't know about, so Motegi didn't deny Hakuba to join. Do you have something to tell me now?"

Gunda thought about it for a moment and finally said, "I found something in a room upstairs. A passage to be exact, a riddle with a treasure. ”

"What did the murderer say?" Matsuda's heart suddenly burst into mind, and he remembered a long paragraph: "What is the king and princess soldiers?"

"Yes, but there are other discoveries. "There was a man who solved the riddle and was killed by Karasuma," said Yaruda. ”

"Karasuma, isn't Karasuma Renya dead?" Matsuda immediately reacted, "That man unlocked the code forty years ago when Karasuma was not dead?"

"Well, it probably wasn't long before Karasuma died, and the auction tragedy happened. Gunda nodded: "And you must be very interested in the name of that man." ”

"It's definitely not a man's name that I'm interested in, not to mention knowing what I look like. Just as he walked to the restaurant, Matsuda pushed open the door of the restaurant.

Just then, the sound of the door opening "squeak" made the two people inside turn back at the same time. It's Motegi and Hakuba.

"Yo!" Matsuda was the first to react and greeted.

Motegi and Hakuba saw that it was Matsuda, looked at each other, turned back again, and then whispered a few words before preparing to leave.

"Take your time, we've seen through this trick. When Motegi crossed Matsuda, he smiled defiantly, "When I'm here, the police really don't have much use. ”

"It's really arrogant. After seeing Motegi leave, Matsuda muttered to Gunda, "Aren't you going to say something?" ”

"What do I want to mix in boring things between men. "It doesn't seem like this is what guns do.

"The minimum lethal dose of potassium cyanide is 5 grams, and the onset takes only a dozen seconds. Let's find out what Ogami ate with potassium cyanide before he died. Matsuda happily said to Gunda, "That's exactly what you're doing, Miss Gunda." ”

"You're going to let me dissect Dajo now!?"
