Chapter 8 Xiaoqin's work, I don't worry

"Uh-huh......"

Looking at the eager Conan, Belmode shook her index finger with her usual mysterious smile on her face.

"I can't reveal too much, but ...... I can tell you that the man's code name was Ireland. ”

"Ireland?"

"That's right, a full-bodied whiskey, and you'll have to investigate the rest for yourself."

With that, Belmode turned around and opened the door and got into the car.

"Ah, yes......"

As if suddenly remembering something, Belmode rolled down the window, looked at Conan, and said in a meaningful tone:

"It's a small help to you, there's a member of the organization that has recently been transferred, a very, very dangerous member, especially for you.

Don't let him find out your secret, or I can't be sure what he's going to do to you......"

"What did you say?" Conan was a little confused.

His secret? Could it be that it refers to the mysterious shrinkage of his body?

"Purple pupils."

Belmode pointed to his eyes.

"Purple pupils?"

"Beautiful eyes like amethyst, be careful of everyone around you with purple pupils."

As soon as the words fell, Belmode started the car and rushed out of the underground parking lot with a swing of his tail.

"Hey! Wait......"

"Bye-bye~"

“……”

"What are you looking at? Conan? ”

"Wow!"

In the detective office, Mori Kogoro went out for a meeting, and Karasuma Ying, who had just finished washing the dishes, suddenly appeared behind Conan, startling a certain elementary school student who was meditating on the sofa.

On the sofa, there is a clutter of information about the victims of the serial murders, which were brought back by Kogoro Mori.

"Huh? What is this puzzle? ”

Karasuma Ying glanced at it, picked up one of the photos, and asked curiously.

"Uh...... Ah, Sister Xiaoying, this is a case that Uncle Maori is helping the police handle, I was just a little curious, so I took it out and took a look, please, Sister Xiaoying, don't tell Uncle Maori~"

Conan used his strength to sell cuteness to Karasuma Ying, and if he didn't sell it, he would be subjected to that uncle's violent deduction again, which really hurts......

"No, Conan." Karasuma smiled and touched Conan's head, "But remember to put things back in their place later?" ”

"yes, I know."

"However, speaking of which, I always feel that the person in this photo is so familiar......" Karasuma Ying looked at the photo in his hand and frowned slightly.

The photo shows a middle-aged woman with black hair and glasses.

"No, it's not just her, but a few other people in the photo, I seem to have seen them somewhere......"

Putting down the photo in her hand, Karasuma Ying looked at the photos of several other people, and her brows furrowed even tighter.

"What?" Conan was stunned when he heard this, Karasuma Ying had actually seen these people in the photo?

With his brain racing, Conan looked at Karasuma Ying, who was pondering, thought about it carefully, and tried to say the clue that had puzzled him for a long time.

"Tanabata, Beijing ......"

"Kyoto!" A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and Karasuma Ying finally remembered.

"Two years ago, during the Kyoto Hotel fire on Tanabata, my mother and I saw them at the time!"

"The Kyoto Hotel Fire Case? Sister Xiaoying, can you tell me about it? Conan hurriedly asked.

"It was two years ago that there was an accidental fire in a hotel in Kyoto, and I remember that seven people in the hotel escaped, but one person was trapped in the hotel......"

"Seven?" When Conan heard this, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "They, are they the people in the photo?" ”

"Well, I remember it was them." Karasuma looked at the six photos one by one and finally nodded.

She and her mother were downstairs when the fire broke out at the hotel, so she had seen the seven people who had escaped from the hotel.

Similarly, she remembers that the police at the scene said that there was a woman trapped in the hotel, and the boy who was crying and screaming downstairs to rush up, and who was suspected to be the boyfriend of the trapped woman.

"Wait, if it's seven people......" Conan's face became more and more ugly as he looked at the six photos.

Doesn't it mean that there will be one more person who will die?

But if there are only seven people, wouldn't it match the code mark on the mahjong tiles?

"Jingle Bell~"

At this moment, the phone of the office suddenly rang, and Karasuma Ying hurriedly stepped forward to take it.

"Hello, this is the Maori detective...... Alas? Mr. Maori? …… Um, okay, I see, huh...... You also pay attention to safety. ”

After communicating with Maori Kogoro on the other end of the phone, Karasuma Ying finally put down the phone with a solemn expression.

"Sister Xiaoying, what did Uncle Maori say?" Looking at her like this, Conan's heart chuckled.

She turned around and said to Conan, "Mr. Maori said that there was another murder just now, and he was going to go to the scene with the police to check the situation, and he would not come back for dinner at noon." ”

"Damn!"

With a low shout, Conan turned and ran out of the office at a rapid pace.

"I have something to go out, and Sister Xiaoying's things on the sofa will be entrusted to you!"

"Huh? That lunch......

"No more!"

“……”

In the car on the side of the road, Bai Heqing lay in the driver's seat and called Gin.

"Moxi Moxi, Xiaoqin, help me check someone."

On the other end of the phone, Gin was silent for a moment before he spoke:

"Why don't you go to Ireland?"

Ireland is currently undercover with the police, and it should be more convenient to check people, why did he find him?

"Oh, because I suddenly found out that Ireland might be undercover, and I'm not very relieved."

"Undercover?"

Bai Heqing could feel it across the phone, and after hearing the word "undercover", Gin's tone was cold at that moment.

"Don't get excited Xiaoqin, organization is important, and now we still need him to lurk on the police's side, so we can't kill him yet, at least until we take back the SD card." Bai Heqing heard the sound to soothe Gin, and his tone was brisk.

"Hmph, how did you notice that?"

"The boss's orders." Bai Heqing smiled slightly, and directly moved out the supreme order.

It was impossible for him to say that it was actually because Ireland inadvertently knew something that he shouldn't know, so Bai Heqing wanted to find a reason to kill Ireland, right?

The secret of the medicine, without the permission of the boss, even the gin, which he admires, cannot be revealed in the slightest.

So he could only get rid of Ireland in the name of undercover.

"I see." Hearing the boss, Gin didn't have any doubts.

He would not doubt it, because since he joined the organization, Bai Heqing has been the most relied on cadre of the boss, and there is no one.

For more than a decade, it hasn't changed.

In the past, there were often cases where Shirakawa Qing passed the word for the boss.

"I'll get the SD card back in Ireland when I get it back." Gin said, he naturally knew the purpose of Bai Heqing and him about this.

"Okay, I'm sorry Xiaoqin, remember not to be too violent."

"Tsk......"

Pouting in displeasure, Gin hung up the phone.

Bai Heqing also put down the phone with a relaxed face.

Gin errands, he rest assured.

Well?

Then again......

Shirakawa Kiyoshi always felt that he had forgotten something? It seems that I want to talk to Xiaoqin...... What is it?

Hawkers, forget it, the elderly are not in good spirits, so let's sleep for a while and talk about it when I think about it......
