According to Itaguchi, the pounce signals he trained John were the telephone ringing, the bell, and finally his unique greeting.

Therefore, if you want to solve this case, you only need to think of "dog training" and then find out the corresponding signal.

And because the middle and back two points of the three signals have been raised, it is not too simple to find the first point again.

In particular, the board mouth still shows such a big flaw.

Of course, if you just consider Itaguchi's murder methods, this is indeed a near-perfect plan.

It's a pity that this guy didn't expect that Maehara Gang would bring back a girl, so that the details of the entire case process could not be covered up or changed.

The other thing is that this guy cares too much about the dog.

If Sano was Itaguchi, he would just deny it, what training, what signals, he didn't know anything, and he hadn't taught the dog what to pounce.

If you are not satisfied, you can sue it, and there is no ironclad evidence anyway.

“…… I was about to let go of this matter, but who knew that this guy actually appeared on his own again, and he still looked like he didn't remember my son's incident at all, and he didn't even learn a lesson at all, and was still bullying the weak, this kind of scumbag, he should have died!! ”

Itaguchi sadly revealed his true motive for killing, causing Conan to immediately begin his spiritual education work in earnest.

…… Isn't it too pitiful to say that John guards the door of Banguchi's son every day, but he uses it as a killing tool.

Scold.

Sano retracted his mind and threw a cigarette to Itaguchi with his backhand.

"The case is a case, although I feel that you are a little stupid, but you are stupid to this extent, it is worthy of respect, and although it is a little late to take revenge now, but after all, you have fulfilled your father's responsibilities, and you have done your best in public and private."

Itaguchi grabbed Sano's cigarette in a hurry, and his face full of tears and snot showed a little confusion.

"You say...... What? ”

"I said you've done a good job."

Sano repeated his praise: "You are worthy of yourself and your son." ”

“…… Sano? ”

Officer Twilight and Conan and the others looked at Sano in a daze, a little at a loss, they didn't expect the other party to "praise" a murderer.

In terms of Sano's character, it is really a bit surprising that he would make such an almost comforting behavior.

…… Especially when Conan had just accused Itaguchi of the moral high ground, Sano made this move, what is the difference between backstabbing him?

"Now that the case is settled, then I'll go first."

Sano didn't have any intention of staying any longer, and turned to leave.

Ash Yuan Ai stared at Sano's back for two seconds, then stepped up to follow, and the real child trio hesitated for a moment, and followed as well, followed by Moriran and Conan.

“…… It's not that I said, the case is all settled, what are you still doing with me. ”

On the way home, Sano glanced at the group of people large and small behind him, and asked a little speechlessly.

"No...... We want to say thank you to Brother Sano. ”

The trio was watched by Sano's scalp tight, but they still stubbornly explained the reason.

"Thank you, Brother Sano, for agreeing to our request and helping us rescue John, thank you, Brother Sano!"

With the help of a loud voice, the trio managed to say what they wanted to say, and then bowed to Sanno and thanked him.

Originally, the so-called "request" in the mouth of the real child trio was just a matter of convenience for Sano, but the three little children are now so serious, but it makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

…… Maybe it was because of the influence of that board that caused his moral bottom line to rise for a short time, so he left those words at the end?

Sano touched his nose and said "um".

After turning the corner, the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes wafted in, and Sano's eyes immediately lit up: "Oh, there are roasted sweet potatoes for sale." ”

"Then I'll treat everyone to eat well, as a celebration that John will not be treated with drugs."

Sano glanced at Mao Lilan, and after thinking for a few seconds, he still waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll invite you." ”

"Huh?"

The group watched with some surprise as Sano took the money out of his pocket.

"This ...... Is it really good senior? ”

Moriran leaned over to Sano's side and whispered.

"Well, it's okay, someone reimburses anyway."

Sano, who finished paying, watched the boss take out sweet potatoes and replied casually.

"Reimbursement?"

Mao Liran touched the back of his head in confusion, but Sano stopped explaining.

…… After all, strictly speaking, Sano is now in the period of mission, and since this is the case, isn't it very reasonable to reimburse some food and drink expenses.

Otherwise, even if Sano's current moral level rises inexplicably, it is absolutely impossible to invite these little devils to eat baked sweet potatoes out of his own pocket.

Sano took the roasted sweet potatoes from the boss one by one and distributed them to several people present.

This made Conan, whose eyes were a little complicated, slightly relieved.

…… Because of Sano's praise of Itaguchi just now, Conan was inexplicably worried, whether the other party was secretly dissatisfied with himself in his heart, but this roasted sweet potato was not missing him.

Did you think too much about it?

The group moved on.

There was no superfluous communication, just intently tearing the skin of the roasted sweet potato until a perfect chunk of plump yellow and oily sweet potato flesh was revealed.

Only then did he open his mouth and swallow a full mouthful, and the slimy and soft meat was chewed, so that the aroma instantly overflowed the entire mouth, and even came out of the nose.

The little fat man Yuantai ate the fastest, and he had already swallowed all the sweet potatoes in four or five bites, then licked his fingers and looked at the roasted sweet potatoes in the hands of the others.

…… It's better not to ask for it with others, it's rare that Brother Sano seems to be in a good mood today, if he is too greedy and makes the other party unhappy, it will be miserable.

Yuan Tai shrunk his neck.

Ayumi, on the other hand, suddenly stopped and shouted, "Ah, it's the dog that Brother Sanno fed that day." ”

"Huh?"

The group immediately stopped, and following the direction of Ayumi's finger, they saw a certain thin black dog pulling against the grass.

"Really."

Except for Mao Lilan, everyone else present had seen Xiao Hei, a thin dog that looked more unique, so they all recognized it.

“…… Senior, do you want to go and say hello to it? ”

Although Mao Lilan didn't understand the situation, he could basically guess what was going on based on these three words, so he asked Sanno tentatively.

"Hmmm......"

Sano stared at Xiao Hei, who didn't know why, who was staring at the grass by the river for a few seconds, and still shouted.

"Hey! Blackie! ”

After Sano's call, several people next to him looked at him with some surprise and confusion.

"Blackie?"

"Is this the name you gave Sano, brother?"

"Are you already that familiar with this dog?"

Listening to this series of questions, Sano nodded calmly: "Sort of, I ran into it a few times after that, and after coming and going, I gave it a name." ”

"I see......"

Several people nodded thoughtfully, only Gray Yuan pointed in the direction of the river with an expressionless face: "However, it doesn't seem to ...... Your voice is heard. ”

Well?

Sano was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up, Xiao Hei was really still digging the soil.

“…… Blackie! ”

Sano shouted again, Xiao Hei still didn't react, but he screamed twice in succession, the voice was louder and louder each time, but unfortunately-

Blackie still didn't respond.

“……”

The group all cast strange glances at Sano.

Although no one spoke, Sano fully understood the doubts behind the eyes of several people-

Are you really familiar with this dog?

…… What the hell, is it so faceless?

The corners of Sano's mouth twitched, and he shouted one last time: "Hey, that stupid dog over there!" ”

"Huh?"

Little Black's ears trembled, and he finally looked up at Sano's side.
