Taking advantage of the gap between Yuji Suwa and others, Conan pretended to be curious and stepped forward to ask, "Uncle, did someone tell you in advance that Brother Gao Cheng would come over instead of him?" ”

Yuji Suwa looked puzzled and said, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Because you obviously don't know Brother Gao Cheng, but it's not strange for him to appear here." Conan said in a child's tone.

"Well," Yuji Suwa said with a smile on his gloomy face, "Because there have been cases in the past where someone else can't be replaced, and I was thinking that I would ask him about it later, but it's called Gao Cheng...... I think I've heard of it somewhere......"

"Because Brother Gao Cheng is a detective, Uncle may have heard it on TV," Conan asked quietly, "Actually, Brother Gao Cheng asked me to ask my uncle, because someone anonymously entrusted him here, so I want to find out the identity of the client, who didn't come today?" ”

Yuji Suwa took a closer look at the venue when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, "Well, there should be 3 people who didn't come......"

Gao Cheng sat down and silently watched Conan inquire about the news.

I have to say that sometimes the identity of children is really convenient, and some things that are not easy for adults to do, children can easily do it, and it will not arouse suspicion.

After a while, Conan thought about it and came back, and Gao Cheng asked again, "What was the result?" ”

"There are three people who are not present," Conan said in a deep voice with his chin propped up, "The only people who are not invited today are you and a woman, and not many people should know about this kind of private party, so it is very likely that those three people are the principals, of course, Mr. Suwa may not be without the possibility of lying." ”

Saying that, Conan looked at Takagi, who was sitting behind him and kept looking around: "Hey, is this policeman really reliable?" ”

"Don't you think he's a good guy?" Gao Cheng smiled, "You can ask him for help if there is anything." ”

"Forget it, I'd better ask the doctor for help," Conan shook his head, "I think if I find the identities of those three people, maybe I'll get something out of it." ”

The party is actually not interesting, there is no impromptu program, just a small private party that is held several times a year from time to time, either to exchange kendo, or to talk about related competitions, Gao Cheng was interested in chatting a few words at first, and gradually lost interest.

After crossing into the world of Conan, he has lost his attachment to kendo, and just treats it purely as a self-defense technique, and what really makes him diligently pursue is the world of detectives.

If it was just to make a living at the beginning and the original owner's obsession with the detective agency, after experiencing the system's one-minute detective mode, he would never forget that feeling, every time he solved the puzzle of the case, every pore of his body seemed to be excited.

As night fell, Gao Cheng yawned, and his eyes fell on a woman in the crowd with a faint sense of danger.

That person is ......

Seeing that Conan had not come back from the investigation, Gao Cheng got up and said to Takagi: "I'll go out and breathe, and I'll be back soon." ”

"Then I'll check the outside again." Takagi looked cautiously out of the dark mansion.

As a fairly good policeman, he feels that he still has the ability to protect Gao Cheng, after all, no matter how good his swordsmanship is, he is afraid of bullets.

Almost waiting for Gao Cheng and the two to leave the venue, the woman who pretended to listen to the discussion also got up and left, and only Suwa noticed it in the venue and looked at it suspiciously.

The woman was dressed very simply, and she didn't carry a pistol at all, so even Takagi didn't pay attention to it in a preconceived notion.

Walking into the yard, seeing that Gao Cheng was walking in the direction of the toilet in the side room where no one was there, the woman sneered in her heart.

She has long been guarding against the police, and it is because of this that the client deceived Gao Cheng.

The woman cautiously walked through the hallway, and when she saw a figure with a wooden knife, she nimbly climbed up to the roof by taking advantage of the night.

"Do you think it's okay if you have great swordsmanship and a rookie police officer for close protection?" The woman said contemptuously, "It's naïve, I prefer to kill with iron wire rather than a pistol." ”

The woman lurked silently on the roof, pulling a long iron wire with a pendant around her neck as she passed by with a wooden knife below, as she had done in countless actions.

Even if she is a powerful swordsman, she still has to end her life by a professional killer in the dark......

"Hmph." The corners of the female killer's mouth rose, her eyebrows were perverted and excited, and she pulled the iron wire with both hands and tightened it tightly, directly covering the neck of the person below.

"That's it!" A voice suddenly sounded on the roof behind her, and the female killer turned her head in surprise and found that Gao Cheng had appeared behind inexplicably.

"It's you! How can it be? The female killer let go of the iron wire and looked at Wataru Takagi, who was coughing repeatedly, in disbelief, "It was obviously ...... just now"

"It's me, right?" Gao Cheng smiled, "I'm sorry, I just handed over the wooden knife to Officer Gao Mu for safekeeping." ”

"You found me a long time ago?" The female killer was unwilling, "Who are you?" ”

"Of course it's a detective, don't you know?"

"Damn!"

The female killer gritted her teeth and jumped off the roof to escape, but Takagi, who had recovered his strength, pulled out her pistol.

"Don't, don't move!" Takagi rubbed his neck uncomfortably.

……

Outside the Suwa mansion, several police cars soon arrived to escort the female killer.

"But, Joto," Conan said curiously, standing in the doorway with Takasei, "I wonder what would happen if you were attacked by her with a wire." ”

"Fool, I'm not Officer Takagi, how could I be attacked by him?" Gao Cheng rolled his eyes and said, "And I won't be stupid to take risks." ”

Takagi, who had just finished interrogating from the house, happened to pass by, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but have a black line, and the corners of his mouth twitched: Do you mean that I am a fool? I'm so sorry, I don't know who I'm baitting for......

"Thank you so much just now, Officer Takagi," Gao Cheng said gratefully when he saw Takagi Wataru who was silently complaining, "I really don't know what to do if it weren't for you?" ”

"Huh?" Takagi was interrupted from his thoughts, and suddenly froze, as if he had been caught doing something bad, and said embarrassedly with a red face, "Haha, it's all as it should be, I'm a policeman." ”

When the police car left, Gao Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said to Conan, "Look, I know that Officer Takagi is a good person." ”

After a pause, Gao Cheng continued to ask, "By the way, has the client also been found?" ”

"Well," Conan said, with a look of course, "one of those three men just left prison a while ago, and it happens to be one of the murderers in your grandfather's case, and the police have already found evidence that he hired a killer." ”

"So there's no danger anymore, right?" Gao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said tiredly, "Great, I can finally get a good night's sleep, let's go back." ”

Conan glanced at Gao Cheng strangely: "Then again, how did you find out that woman was a killer?" ”

"Intuition, the detective's intuition."

"Joto-kun!" Yuji Suwa walked out of the mansion with his arms crossed, squinting and saying, "Although something unpleasant happened, can I invite you to the next party?" I hope I'll be able to ask you about your swordsmanship when the time comes! ”

"Of course," Gao Cheng smiled back, "but I need to have time, usually the detective agency is quite busy." ”
