The discussion ended when Shiratori found the playing cards in the car.

As Shiratori turned the cards over with gloves on to show them, the suit on the cards was a black square ten.

Officer Megure thought for a while and made a conclusion: "No matter what, the people with numbers behind must be protected. We will visit these people as we know them now. Doctor Shi, can you contact Kudo?"

"That should be no problem."

"Then please tell him to be careful."

After Officer Megure finished speaking, he wanted to take Maori to find Zemu Gongping, whose name contains "eight".

Shi Mo Mi stopped Conan who was about to follow him: "If they really counted down according to the suit of the playing cards to hurt people, this behavior against Tsuji Hiroki is too much. This is a method to kill people. I'm going to investigate the Murakami Jō they mentioned. If Officer Megure and others have other targets, remember to tell me."

Conan agreed, got into the police car very naturally, and followed Maori and others to find Zemu Gongping.

Shi Mo Mi greeted the person in charge and got on the car sent by the system.

[Have you found the location of Murakami Jō? ]

[Not yet. There are too few online surveillance cameras in this world. The only thing I found was a snapshot of him passing by a street in Mika when he was on the bus after being released from prison. ]

[Mika? ]

[I have marked the route map of this bus and the location of the snapshot on the map. ]

Shi Mo Mi waved and enlarged the map on the system page. This bus can actually be called a long-distance bus. From the prison to downtown Tokyo, it will pass by Mika. In the snapshot, Murakami Jō, who was sitting by the window, did not have any gloomy expression. Instead, he smiled very easily and seemed to be talking to the person sitting next to him.

[This route will pass by the Maori Detective Agency, right? ]

[Yes. ]

[Turn around and go to Xiaolan's house. ]

The system drove to the downstairs of the Maori Detective Agency as instructed. There was a coffee shop downstairs. Because it was afternoon, there were no other customers except two customers sitting by the window with books.

The boss had not hired a waiter yet. At this moment, he was sitting behind the bar with reading glasses and reading a newspaper.

When Shi Mo Mi pushed the door, the bell on the door made a pleasant sound.

"How come Xiao Shi is free today?"

"I want to ask you something. Is it eight days ago, did anyone ask when Uncle Mao Li would be back?"

The boss thought for a while: "Yes, I thought he wanted to entrust Mao Li to investigate the case, but he said he wanted to see an old friend, and then I didn't know when Mao Li would be back, so I asked him to wait here."

"Do you look like this?"

Shi Mo Mi took out Mao Li's newspaper clippings and turned to Murakami's photo to show her.

The boss took off his reading glasses and looked carefully: "It seems so. But he was not waiting for me that day. Some customers said he was sitting on the stairs to the second floor, but when I went out to see, I only saw him leaving with someone else."

"Do you know that man, boss?"

"I seem to have seen him in the newspaper. Wait a minute."

While talking, the boss went to find the newspaper next to him. After a while, he turned it over and pointed to the photo in the newspaper: "That's the man."

Shi Mo Mi took the newspaper. The person in the photo made her frown - Ze Mu Gongping!

The boss was quite worried: "Did someone of them get into trouble?"

"Not yet, thank you, boss. I have other things to do. I will visit you next time."

"You kid, why are you still thanking me? If you hadn't saved me before, my old bones would have been buried in the ground because of a heart attack."

[Go check Ze Mu Gongping's recent movements. Mark everything you can find from the time you contacted Murakami Jō. Drive to Ze Mu Gongping's house. ]

[Eight days ago, I passed the Mihua intersection with Murakami Jō. Bought lunch and cold dishes. Rented a car seven days ago, bought a shovel and other tools, left the city that afternoon, and returned home six days ago in the early morning...]

The system kept reporting the progress of the screening. Because a huge amount of information needed to be screened, the system only reported that three days ago, Shi Mo Mi had already arrived downstairs at Zemu Gongping's house.

Originally, Conan and his friends couldn't find who "Nine" represented, so they first came to Zemu Gongping's house. Shi Mo Mi tried to call Conan's earring phone, but it was once again displayed as out of service area.

Standing at the door of Zemu Gongping's apartment, Shi Mo Mi took out the hairpin on her head.

[There's no one in the room, right? ]

[Yes. ]

Shi Mo Mi broke open the hairpin and opened the door neatly.

The lock-picking skill book that the system gave her before was very useful. After learning the lock-picking speed, it was so fast that Shi Mo Mi could theoretically try to break into the room without her.

The room was empty, and Shi Mo Mi went straight to the bathroom and took out the instrument to assist the system in testing.[Are there any traces of your special fertilizer? ]

[The washing machine has them. ]

Shi Mo Mi stood up and called Inspector Megure again.

"Sorry, the user you called is out of service area. Please call again later..."

The sweet female voice made Shi Mo Mi frown. He called Shiratori instead, but the result was the same.

"Tsk... Don't look for traces of Zemu Gongping. Check where Conan and the others went."

[Asahi Katsuyoshi's Crystal Restaurant. ]

Shi Mo Mi dragged the system panel and looked up the restaurant online. Very good, an independent underwater restaurant in Tokyo Bay, only accessible by a sightseeing train, a "holy land of science" that can trap everyone to death if the door is closed.

This restaurant is not accessible at all!

After sweeping all the things found in Zemu Gongping's bedroom into a paper bag, Shi Mo Mi rushed to the Crystal Restaurant.

On the way, the system driving the car suddenly pushed a panel visible to only two people in front of Shi Mo Mi.

[The Crystal Restaurant exploded. ]

Shi Mo Mi: ...?
