Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Twilight Police Department, please don't set up a flag

"Kudo! Go to work like you go to work, cheer up! Aren't you very energetic when you draw manga? Why do you languish as soon as you work? ”

"Takagi! Have you sorted out the few cases that you asked you to sort out? Did you find any suspicious spots? ”

"And you! Chiba! Don't run! Stop me! Don't spend all day fiddling with those little kids! Keep your mind on your work, you know? ”

"Yes! Twilight Police Department! ”*3

Since the murder of Yuji Suwa a few days ago, several of them blocked the Twilight Police Department who was about to sneak away after work, and slaughtered the Twilight Police Department with other colleagues, the Twilight Police Department, which had worked so hard and was worried that the private money they had saved was squandered by them overnight, began to be in this state of iron-blooded boss.

After a long time of silent eye contact with Takagi and Chiba, Yuichi, who was already miserable and was about to collapse in his spirit, looked at Yuichi, who was still fifteen minutes away from work, and stood up from his desk, "Dusk Police Department!" This one...... Hey, hey, hey! The atmosphere is too serious! Why don't we liven up the atmosphere? After all, what we believe in in the search lesson has always been to handle cases happily, and the atmosphere of such a serious case handling is very depressing! ”

"Oh? Do you have any good ideas? You-one-old-brother! Hearing Yuichi's words, the Twilight Police Department immediately stared at him with a pair of murderous electric eyes, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out the name he was most proud of before.

"Ahaha! There's nothing left! It's just an immature little proposal, and if we want to make another bet, bet on whether Conan or Uncle Maori will call to report the murder before work, and if they don't, then we will all take turns to treat you to dinner! We go to the restaurant every day, what do you think? ”

"Oh? Bet again? It seems that Brother Youyi likes gambling very much! You must know that small gambling and big gambling hurt the body, and forced gambling is in vain...... But since you have this Yaxing, the elder brother will sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman to play with you again, but how can you only let one side play with chips when you bet? That's it, if these two moldy gods really call to report the case before getting off work, brother, I'll treat you again! I do what I say! Looking at Yuichi and the others who nodded on the side, and understood what they meant, the Twilight Police Department glanced at the time when there were still seven minutes to get off work, and then became bold and began to pretend to be dead.

"Don't! Twilight Police Department! This bet ......" Seeing that the Twilight Police Department set up another flag in front of him, Yuichi, who knew how powerful the Grim Reaper duo in this world was, hurriedly dissuaded him, he really couldn't imagine how the Twilight Police Department would turn their heads and teach them to be good cops if they invited everyone to eat again.

However, before Yuichi could stop the Twilight Police Department and let him retract the terrifying flag, the transfer answering machine of the search class suddenly rang loudly, "Jingle bellsβ€”jingle bells!" ”

The tension that had been eased and almost disappeared suddenly once again permeated the heads of all the personnel of the three departments of the search class and the forcible search.

"What's wrong? No one answered the phone when it rang? You know, we're a search lesson! Is that what you do? ”

"Dusk Police! I'll be off work in five minutes! You see...... What if! ”

"Pick it up for me! I don't believe it, it's a day today! Now there's a phone call all of a sudden, and those two bastards can't do it? There are millions of people in Tokyo, so the odds are that I won, right? What's more, what if it's the two of them? Murder matters! Pick it up for me! ”

"Yes!" The police officer who heard Twilight's reprimand nodded hurriedly and pressed the connect button.

"Hey! Is it the Twilight Police Department? We're from the Junior Detectives! My name is Mitsuhiko, and we were the ones who solved the Italian mafia gold coin case last time, do you still have an impression? No words! You always know Conan, right? Conan of the Maori Detective! We're going to report the crime now, and in Rice Flower Town, we found a male corpse! Right in the bathroom of the room! Conan is already watching the people in this room, come on! ”

"Okay! I understand! Do not act rashly! We'll be right away! Ignoring everyone's strange gazes, he walked quickly to the police station and gave Mitsuhiko a positive answer, and then hung up the phone.

"What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and go to the police! If you want to eat, you'll have to solve this murder case for me, understand? Come on! ”

"W-yi! Woo-yi! ”

Fifteen minutes later, after arriving at the scene with a group of skeptical men, the Twilight Police Department scanned the surroundings with a blank face, and finally saw the bastard imp staring intently at the house in front of him on a phone booth on the side of the road.

"Conan! What's going on now? ”

"Report to the Twilight Police Department! So far, not a single person has left the room or entered. It can be determined that the body was not transferred! As long as we go in now, we'll be able to find the body in the bathroom. Conan, who heard the question of the Twilight Police Department, did not panic like the other children, and after reporting the situation on his side to the Twilight Police Department in an orderly manner, he jumped out of the phone booth and walked towards the house with the Twilight Police Department and the others.

"Dangdang! Anyone? For this kind of police case handling steps that do not require brain-based reasoning, the Twilight Police Department, which has been a police officer for more than ten years, is quite experienced, and after making a small gesture to everyone, he calmly knocked on the room where Conan accused him of hiding corpses.

"Crunch!" When there was a knock on the door, a tall man with black-rimmed glasses and a bathrobe opened the door to the house with a puzzled face.

"Who are you?"

"We are the police of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section! Someone just reported that a male corpse was seen in your bathroom, and this is my police ID! It's a bit presumptuous, but could you please cooperate with us? Where is the bathroom? Take us over and take a look! ”

"Male corpse? Mr. Officer! Someone must be joking! How could I have such a thing in my home? ”

"Humph! Not really! We just saw a man die in the bathroom! ”

"Covered in blood!"

"Absolutely!"

Ayumi and the others, who heard the man's denial, immediately overcame their fear of seeing the corpse, and retorted loudly from behind the Twilight Police Department.

"Oh? Are you whistleblowers? A bunch of imps! It's nonsense! I just came out of the bathroom, how can there be a male corpse you are talking about? The bathroom is the one at the end, I don't believe you can go and see for yourself! Faced with the testimony of Ayumi and others, the man snorted disdainfully and then stretched out his hand and pointed to the room behind him, looking extremely fearless.
