Act 290: Rejoicing in Enemies
"What does this Glenlevy mean......" Mitsuhiko asked with a frown when he saw the horror in Conan's eyes.
But in just a moment, Conan's face returned to its original appearance. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Oh, it's nothing. 'Glenlevy' is a kind of whiskey, and I think the prisoner must have wanted to drink. โ
"Eh~" Mitsuhiko blinked.
"Hurry up, Conan, or I'll leave you two behind!" In the distance, Kojima Motota turned around and shouted.
"Oh, here we are!"
Conan turned his head in response, his expression suddenly becoming serious.
The code names in that organization are almost always taken after the name of alcohol, and according to what Gray Hara said before, Numabuchi Jiichiro had been in the organization for a while, so the "Glen Lewi" in his mouth was likely to be a member of the organization.
But isn't it strange that the member of the group who killed people without blinking saw Numabuchi and did not chase him down, but instead asked him to go to the police and turn himself in?
Conan had seen TV reports of Jiichiro Numebuchi's previous cases, and every time he would shout: If you want to blame, you have to blame them. And this "they" probably refers to the organization in black. But Numebuchi was arrested this time but didn't say anything, could it be that the person who let him go and made him soften?
And the person who makes him the most suspicious now is Hanazuka Shichen who suddenly disappeared in the process of looking for Mitsuhiko.
Conan hurried a few steps forward, walked next to Gran Lewe, raised his head and asked, "Brother Hanazuka, Mitsuhiko saw the murderer just now before he fainted, did you also see it?" โ
"No~" he smiled lightly, "When I got there, only Mitsuhiko fell to the ground alone, and I didn't see anyone." โ
"That's right......," Conan habitually pointed to his chin and fell into deep thought.
He really hoped that was all there was to it.
The next day, Hoshino Satsuki finally found the cat that the client asked her to find in someone's yard. She carefully checked the photo in her hand for reference before she rang the doorbell of the house and explained the situation to the owner inside.
It turned out that the orange cat met the family's white folded ear cat on the street that day, and followed it directly to the house.
When Gao Yue returned the cat to the Broad Lady who was wearing triangular sunglasses, she couldn't stop smiling.
It took only two days to find her baby, so she was happy, threw a stack of million bills on the table, and walked away.
Before leaving, Gao Yue did not forget to remind: "Madam, your cat has reached the estrus period, in order to prevent it from running away again, it is better to put a collar on it." โ
"Oh, I see~"
Hearing the "cluck" sound of Death Barbie's pink high heels on the floor fading away, Amuro came out of the hut.
He crept over to his desk, picked up the stack of money, and began to count them. "I didn't expect this case to be so easy, and I actually earned 1 million yen, and I only received 3,000 yen for the commission fee in the last case. I'm really lucky! โ
Gao Yue walked over unceremoniously and snatched the stack of bills from his hand. "Please, Mr. Amuro. I found that cat, and you slept half the day yesterday when I took this incident. When you wake up and I want you to help me, you say it's me next, just let me take this opportunity to exercise hard, and I didn't help at all. Now that I see that the commission fee is so large, I want to come out and swallow it alone? As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue. Dream! โ
When Amuro woke up yesterday, the alcohol had not completely dissipated, so he wanted to be lazy for a day. Because I didn't see the client's appearance, I didn't expect it to be a rich lady with a generous hand. If he had known that there was so much to give, he would have helped to find it together.
He twisted his head to the side and muttered unconvinced, "It's not because you got me drunk that you're ...... like this" With nowhere to put his hands, he picked up the cup on the table and drank the water.
Gao Yue saw his angry appearance, the corners of his mouth unconsciously put on a smile, and then suddenly put on a serious face, cleared his throat, and said: "In this case, I will give you 100,000 yuan, and the rest will be used as the money for the sobering soup I made for you before." โ
"Poofโ" Amuro almost spat out the water in his mouth.
He coughed while patting his chest and said intermittently, "What...... What decanting soup is so expensive? Tianshan Snow Lotus? โ
"Tianshan Snow Lotus is not at this price." Gao Yue had already counted 100,000 yuan at this time and put it on the table. Tsundere said proudly: "Do you want love?" โ
After saying that, Satsuki walked to another room in the detective agency, ready to sit on the sofa and play mobile games.
But as soon as she unlocked the standby lock, a caller ID named "Shinichi Kudo" appeared on the screen.
"Hey, Kudo? Yesterday's matter is settled. โ
"Hoshino." Conan's voice sounded anxious, ignoring Satsuki's question, and asked to himself, "Do you know the details of Hanazuka Sichen?" โ
The hand holding the mobile phone suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, Gao Yue was stunned for a moment, and pretended to be calm and said, "Did something happen?" โ
"I think he's supposed to be someone from the Black Order." Conan lowered his voice: "Yesterday when we went to Gunma Prefecture to look for Mitsuhiko, we met a serial murderer in Osaka, Jiichiro Numabuchi. When Mitsuhiko met him, he had heard him mention the name of the wine, so I wanted to ask you, you must know who Hanazuka Shotomi is. โ
Glenlevy had told Satsuki not to tell anyone else who he was. Because he is now being closely watched by the people of the organization, worried that too many people will know about this and walk the wind.
What's more, the place where she is staying now is still Amuro's detective agency.
"You're thinking too much, Mitsuhiko must have heard it wrong." Gao Yue's relaxed and playful tone couldn't be seen at all as pretending, "How could a first-grade elementary school student know about the wine 'Glen Levi' and still say it so clearly. After a pause, she asked, "Then have you asked Xiao Wai?" If there really was such a person as 'Glen Lewe', she would have known. โ
Only then did Conan put down his hanging heart, and his voice gradually became weaker: "I asked." Gray Yuan said that she had never heard anyone in the organization use the name of the wine. But I don't think 'I haven't heard' doesn't mean 'no', so I'm going to ask you. โ
Gao Yue, who was holding the phone, suddenly lost her voice.
It seems that Gray Yuan Wai knows very well what he should and should not say.
"In that case, I'll hang up." Conan exhaled deeply and said, "Maybe it's really me who is too careful." โ
From the time Hoshino Satsuki and Conan were talking on the phone, Amuro had been leaning against the wall curtain at the door of the room to listen to the wall. It wasn't until the moment he hung up the phone that he straightened up and walked to his desk and sat down.
But he remained frowning and seemed to be lost in thought......
