Chapter Two Hundred and Four: Purple Handkerchief

Just as Conan and Xiao Ai were talking about all the discoveries he had just made, it might be the time to do it. A Sven man with glasses, in a suit and leather shoes, stood at the front of the venue.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Hello everyone! First of all, you can take time out of your busy schedule to attend the memorial service of Director Sasumaki! I am the master of ceremonies for this memorial service, Naomi Maikura. First of all...... All right! That's all for gossip, let's enjoy the slides that the director of the sake roll treasured during his lifetime! ”

"Slides?"

Conan, who was staring at Shigehiko Swallowing Mouth, was ready to assassinate Pisk in disguise, and immediately felt bad when he heard the words of the emcee on the stage.

But what if something doesn't work out? Seeing the staff on the side move a projector to the front of the venue in front of the projection screen under the command of Maikura Naomichi, Conan, who could only raise his hand with the anesthetic watch and pray for a while that it was best not to happen.

With Maikura's straight signal, the lights in the entire hall of the venue were instantly turned off, and then some fragments began to appear on the curtain in front of the venue under the darkness.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Do you know when this is a movie made by the director of Sasumaki? Especially the name of this movie! ”

Maikura Naomichi, who took the money of the sake roll family, is dutifully presiding over this memorial service at the moment, but unfortunately, although there are many people who come to attend the memorial service of director Sakumaki, but what movies did he make, especially this kind of black and white movie that looks like many years ago, how can these celebrities care now. They gather here because they can socialize with some people who belong to their circle.

Seeing that the scene was suddenly a little cold, Maicang Naodao obviously had expected this to happen, and even after no one at the scene accosted him, he immediately coughed dryly and issued his own signal.

At the same time, To, who had been placed in the crowd by him in advance, immediately opened his mouth to answer.

"This movie is supposed to be a rainbow-colored handkerchief, right?"

"That's right! This guest is right, this is the scene in the rainbow-colored handkerchief, director Sasumaki's masterpiece that won multiple awards! And it's the most important shot before the director's hair thins! It was taken in ......"

"Hahaha!"

Obviously, it was not the first time to attend a memorial service, and the guests who faced this situation immediately offered their laughter and applause after Maicang opened his mouth and rounded up the topic.

After all, you can't let the memorial service just go cold, can you?

However, just when Conan was slightly distracted by the hosting of Maikura Naomichi, Xiao Ai, who was standing next to him, suddenly bumped him on the shoulder and reminded him in a whisper.

"The swallowing Shigehiko you want to protect is gone! Where are you going to find him? ”

"What? Shigehiko Swallow is gone? He was still in the same place just now, why was he gone in the blink of an eye? Damn it! Where the hell did it go? Doesn't he know how dangerous he is right now? ”

Conan, who heard Xiao Ai's reminder, turned around and looked, and sure enough, Shigehiko Swallow, who was still standing in place just now watching Maikura's Naodo performance, didn't know where he had gone.

Conan, who was unwilling to throw away the clues he had in hand, frantically searched for them in the venue, but he couldn't find them as if he had disappeared.

Just as Conan was about to punch himself in frustration, he suddenly heard a strange clicking sound in the midst of people's laughter.

"Huh? Flash? Is this someone taking pictures? But even with a flash, you can't capture the image on the slide! I don't know which idiot is doing useless work. ”

Standing still and making out the strange click, Conan continued to search the hall of the venue.

"Where? Where the hell is the abomination? Is there any deal for this swallowing Shigehiko? That's why he took advantage of the dark environment to leave the place, but who could he trade with? Obviously, he can only contact Pisk on behalf of the black-clothed organization, but unfortunately, what Shigehiko doesn't know is that the content of this transaction is his life! ”

Just when Conan was secretly anxious, suddenly another strange sound sounded in the venue, because of the impact of vision in the dark environment, the usually auxiliary hearing was strengthened in this situation. Conan, who was already a little noisy, immediately sensed the sound.

"What kind of sound is it this time, it's a little muffled! Obviously, it wasn't the kind of photo talk we had just now, and there was also a voice from the top of the center of the venue! Well? Wait a minute! The top of the center of the venue? Not good! Gotta turn on the lights! ”

Just when Conan wanted to understand the killing power caused by the strange noise at the top of the center of the venue, there was a sudden loud bang, startling the entire venue.

Sensing that the situation was not good, Maikura Naomchi immediately asked people to turn on the lights, but when people squinted and readjusted to the light of the venue and cast their eyes on the center of the venue, which had just made a loud noise, all the gentlemen and ladies who had just been personable and covered their mouths and chuckled loudly screamed loudly at the top of their voices.

In the center of the venue, Shigehiko Swallow, who was still talking and laughing with people just now, was angrily opening his eyes, lying on the ground with a blur of flesh and blood, and his body was the gorgeous central top chandelier, which was originally used as an ornament, and the sword-fork-shaped light butt that was originally used as an ornament mercilessly pierced his whole person, and he was killed directly in place.

"Dead man! Let's go! ”

"Run!"

Compared with the panicked crowd, Conan, who was also unwilling to swallow Shigehiko's death, turned his eyes to the table on the side of the venue at this moment, and the moment the lights were turned on, he saw something float by. While everyone was focusing on the dead Shigehiko Swallow, Conan, who felt that it was an important message, immediately slipped over and picked up the thing that had just floated here.

"This is? Purple handkerchief? Well? There are still some embroidery letterings on it? Is this a memorial for the memorial service of director Sasumaki? Interesting! So who does it belong to? And what caused it to float down from a great height? ”

Just when Conan saw what was in his hand and thought to himself, the crowd, which was already completely panicked, completely exploded.

"What's going on? Water...... Crystal lamp, how could it be? ”

"What's going on?"

"Uncle, you're so dizzy! Dead! ”

"What the hell is going on?"

"I don't know!"

"Hey! Who's going to explain what's going on? ”

"It doesn't matter what happens to him now! It's better to leave first, otherwise those reporters who smell fishy will definitely block this place for a while! I don't want to make a fuss here! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! What a bad luck! It's better to get out of here first! ”

"Excuse me! You may not be able to leave for a while! Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Search Section 1 Police Department Yuichi Kudo! Would you please stand still and cooperate? ”

Just when some celebrities were about to take advantage of the chaos to leave, some of the people who were closer to the door of the venue and were the first to slip away all walked back with gloomy faces, and then a familiar voice of Conan came from the gate of the venue.
