Just as Yuichi figured out the true meaning of the strange clue left by Sato Masayo from Saruto, Conan, who had left the shopkeeper with Sato on the other side, was also talking to Sato about his doubts.

"Sister Sato, how did the store manager know so clearly just now? I don't even know what I got shotgun, what I pushed! ”

Looking at Conan on the side, frowning at the appearance of the little adult, Sato, who was a little amused by him, squatted down and couldn't help pinching his face and pulling it.

"Our Conan Detective! At that time, when the Chou Silang incident happened, there was a video on TV that captured the footage of beating people with a shotgun, although the picture was cut out because the picture was too bloody, but there were still many people who knew about it at that time! And at that time, you were probably still waiting to be reincarnated in Huangquan! How did you know about this? As for pushing people, it's because the eyewitness is also a regular customer of this store, and I have talked to that person too! ”

Remembering that when he was chatting with the witness, the other party said that he always felt that he had seen the murderer somewhere, and finally gave up because he couldn't remember it, Sato regretted it for a while, if he could have thought of it at the time......

Shaking his head and shaking all these distractions away, Sato, who felt that he couldn't get any clues here, muttered alone while pulling Conan out.

"It doesn't matter who the murderer is for now! The most important question now is that we need to find out whether it was the murderer who attacked him 18 years ago, or the arsonist who has been rampant recently, otherwise we will not be able to find out. ”

"I know the arsonist! He's in Shinagawa! ”

"Huh? Gray Plains? ”

Conan, who heard Sato's muttering, didn't have time to think about the arsonist, but it happened that Gray Plain, who came in to look for them, stood in front of them with a map and said his reasoning.

Ignoring Conan's surprise, he held the map in his hand high, feeling that Sato could see it. Gray Yuan pointed to the map with a pencil and began to reason.

"Sister Sato! You see! If you leave Ikebukuro in the first case and Asakusa Bridge in the second case untouched, then connect Tabata in the third case with Shimokitazawa in the fourth case along the railway line, and finally connect Yotsuya and Shinagawa in the fifth case in this way, and then you will find that the murderer drew a big ...... on the map of Tokyo in this way."

"Fire!"

"That's right! It is not known exactly what his reason for doing this was, but if the arsonist mistakenly thought that Officer Takagi had seen him commit arson, and was calling the police! Scared, it's still possible for him to attack Officer Takagi! ”

"I see? Then we'll have to hurry up and find Ayumi, now she's the only one who can save Takagi! ”

Sato, who heard Xiao Ai's reasoning, would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't, put aside the murderer from eighteen years ago, who could be found at any time, and pulled Conan and Xiao Ai to run quickly towards his car.

However, what made her collapse was that the three children who were supposed to be sitting in the car had disappeared inexplicably.

Thinking that the arsonist might still be nearby, Sato, who was afraid that the arsonist would recognize Ayumi and kill the killer, felt anxious. However, just as she was about to mobilize the surrounding police to find the three imps, the detective badge pinned to Conan's chest on the side suddenly rang.

"Conan! Conan! Did you hear that? ”

"Huh? Ayumi? Feed! What the hell are you guys up to? ”

"Shhhh Conan, don't be too loud! Otherwise, it will be heard by the gangsters! ”

"Gangsters?"

"That's right! It's the man Ayumi saw last time, and he happened to pass in front of the izakaya just now, so we secretly followed him! ”

"What? Where are you? ”

Conan, who heard the explanation of Ayumi and the others, immediately became nervous, and hurriedly took the detective badge and asked.

"Our location is probably in the warehouse street of Shinagawa 6-chome!"

"Huh? Look! He's pouring stuff into the newspaper! ”

"Pour something? Hey? In other words, he has only lit the fire now, and the fire has not yet been lit? ”

"In other words, the one who attacked Officer Takagi shouldn't be this arsonist!"

Conan and Xiao Ai, who glanced at each other, immediately got this information. On the other side, Sato, who happened to see Shiratori Renzaburo passing by, also stopped him and asked him if he had seen the children.

Shiratori, who saw Sato here, didn't go around in the car, and after getting off the bus, he talked to Sato about the current situation at Shinagawa Station.

Seeing Conan appearing in Shiratori Renzaburo, he immediately thought that Officer Takagi had come with him to Shinagawa Station to arrest the arsonist, and then he suddenly called Sato and said that he knew who the gangster was. Now that we know that the arsonist is not the murderer who attacked Takagi, then the murderer from eighteen years ago must be caught.

Thinking of this, Conan immediately leaned in.

"Officer Shiratori! Was there anything strange about Detective Takagi before he was separated? ”

"Strange? If you want to say that in addition to the sneaky phone calls that he avoided me everywhere, that is, after he inadvertently looked up at the Shinagawa Station stop sign in the waiting hall, the whole person was completely abnormal! ”

"Station stop signs? Yes! I see! No wonder Takagi detectives would know who the murderer was! ”

Just when Conan was secretly excited that he had cracked the Chou Silang incident, Xiao Wai on the side looked at him proudly and couldn't help but be coldly sarcastic.

"Great Detective! If you don't save those three imps, by the time we pass by, they'll either be lying on the ground and cold, or they'll be thrown into the fire and turned to ashes!" Are you sure you're still going to play detective games here? ”

"Ahh Ayumi them! Damn it! Forgot about this! ”

Conan, who was reminded by Xiao Ai like this, immediately pulled Shiratori Ren Saburo's pants and roared anxiously.

"Uncle Shiratori! Take us to the warehouse street in Shinagawa 6-chome, where Ayumi and the others found the arsonist lighting a fire! ”

"What? Arsonist? Bastard! Let's go! ”

Shiratori, who also knew how dangerous the arsonist was, immediately turned pale and ran towards his car. And Sato, who heard the news, also subconsciously ran towards his car, but Conan behind her grabbed her.

"Sister Sato! You're not in the other place! ”

"Huh? Conan! What are you talking about! That arsonist could have killed someone! Stop it! We've got to ......."

"I didn't make a fuss! Since the arsonist has just started the fire, he is not the murderer who attacked Officer Takagi! In other words, you now have to solve the incident of eighteen years ago! ”

"That incident eighteen years ago? But ......"

Just when Sato wanted to say that it might be too late now, Yuichi, who had finished communicating with Saruto Hidero over there, finally called over.

"Hey! Miwako? I have something to say to you! It's about your father's case! ”
