Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

In the underground parking lot of the shopping mall building.

Conan put his hands in his pockets and was waiting for Belmod early.

Seeing the disguised Belmod coming from a distance, and when he was about to get in the car, Conan said, "Don't you want to see that man for something? Belmod."

Belmode turned his head and looked at Conan and said: "I can't help it. After all, you forced me to leave. Besides, that man shouldn't be the murderer. Someone who can't raise his right arm can't kill someone with a knife, unless he is in The injuries I suffered after the incident, but this is unlikely, but it’s a shame that you recognized me, I’m already dressed like this.”

"It's because of your feet. Your right foot is bulging. There is a pistol hidden there, right? In addition, his knife clearly scratched your cheek, but not even a drop of blood came out." Conan said confidently. .

Belmod looked at his right foot, touched his cheek, and said with a smile: "Really, I have to make a bleeding mask in the future."

Belmode tore off his disguise and showed his true face.

Conan speculated: "I think you were deliberately taken hostage by that person. After you were out of police surveillance, you would then use the pistol to make a big comeback. But I think you probably don't need to use the pistol."

Belmode lit a cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke: "I didn't expect to get your appreciation."

Conan asked solemnly: "Why is your organization pursuing this murder case?"

Belmod looked at Conan with a smile in his eyes: "What you asked is really direct. If you are so direct, then I should be more direct, because NOC, that is, undercover..."

Belmod very generously told Conan why the organization wanted to pursue this murder case.

Conan suddenly realized: "So, if the police catch the criminal first, it would be bad for these undercover information to be exposed..."

Conan was suddenly startled, and his expression became heavy: "You are going to say here that there is an undercover police officer among the police officers handling the case? Kamiya... No! No, that guy played mahjong with Uncle Kogoro all night last night. One o'clock I don't even care about the case...

Did you ask one of your associates to pretend to be a police officer on the case? That's why you infiltrated the investigation meeting, right? In order to confirm whether the member's costume was successful, otherwise you would have continued undercover, right?

who is it? ! Who are you pretending to be? Is the real police officer still alive? "

Belmode stretched out his finger and shook it: "That's all I can reveal. Next, you have to investigate on your own. His code name is Ireland. There is no whiskey with a mixed flavor and a mellow taste. It's just that this bottle of wine has been Kamiya broke half the bottle cap.

By the way, as a friendly reminder, there is a feud between Ireland and Golden Ale. Golden Ale has already guessed the mission of the organization, but he still doesn’t know that it is Ireland who is pretending to be a policeman. He is still playing a detective game there, trying to use reasoning to guess who is pretending to be a policeman. organizational membership.

This guy Ireland might be thinking about how to get revenge on Golden Ale every day, but Ireland doesn't have the courage, and he can't afford to offend Golden Ale.

If Golden Ale finds out that Ireland is pretending to be Ireland, he will definitely provoke Ireland crazily. The rabbit will bite when he is anxious. Ireland might start fighting with Golden Ale. I think you also have a rough idea of ​​what Golden Ale looks like when he goes crazy, but Golden Ale It's crazier than you realize, and it won't be a matter of just one or two people dying by then. "

Conan said with a strange expression: "You mean I still have to guard against Kamiya. Even if I find a policeman pretending to be Irish, I can't let Golden Ale know it's Ireland. I have to protect Ireland?"

"It's up to you to understand it. After all, it won't be me who will be in trouble, but you and the policemen from the Metropolitan Police Department. Golden Ale is synonymous with trouble. Not only will you have a headache, but we will also have a headache."

After Belmode finished speaking, he suddenly waved: "Well, Mr. Guard, this child seems to be lost."

When Conan turned around to look, Belmode had already gotten into the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

After returning to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Ireland, disguised as Matsumoto Kiyonaga, received a report from his subordinates.

A painter named Shindo Sumire called and said that she knew who the murderer of the serial murders was. Shindo Sumire's address was in Hachioji City.

Because of Matsumoto Kiyonaga's identity, Ireland had to notify Officer Megure.

After Officer Megure learned about it, he immediately asked Officer Takagi and Officer Sato to go to Hachioji City.

After the people in the office left, Ireland called Gin's number.

"A painter, Sumire Shindo, is suspected of knowing who the murderer is. Two police officers have already rushed to Hachioji City."

"Shindo Sumire, right? I understand."

Gin hung up the phone.

Vodka said: "It's not good, brother. Even if we can get here earlier than the policeman, we still won't have enough time to extract a confession."

"Don't worry, we won't run into you." Gin made a call: "It's me, Chianti, Cohen. Now you go to the Asakawa Bridge immediately and intercept the two policemen."

About ten minutes later.

A blue Dodge Viper was parked on the Asakawa Bridge. The barrels of two sniper rifles were stretched out from the car windows, aiming at a police car with its siren blaring on the road below the bridge.

Officer Takagi and Officer Sato were in this car.

Two gunshots rang out, and the police car's tires blew out and began to shake violently.

Under the calm command of Officer Sato, Officer Takagi successfully stopped the car on the side of the road.

Officer Takagi checked the tire: "Damn it, it's punctured."

"Takagi, call Shiratori immediately!"

After Officer Sato finished speaking, he frowned and glanced at the Asakawa-machi Bridge. As the "Screaming Witch in the Fog" goddess of curves, she also often suffered tire blowouts, and a tire blowout definitely didn't feel like this.

Gin and Vodka arrived at Shindo Sumire's residence.

The residence was in a mess, and there must have been a fight.

Vodka frowned and said, "Damn it, I'm a step too late."

Gin looked around: "This place is not suitable for staying for a long time, Vodka, let's go."

Gin and Vodka made a quick decision and left immediately.

Subsequently, police officers including Officer Takagi, Officer Sato and Officer Shiratori also arrived at Shindo Sumire’s residence.

Officer Sato called and reported to Officer Matsumoto in Irish disguise: "There are signs of fighting in the room. It is speculated that the criminal used a car to take Miss Shindo away. Please send someone to investigate immediately and send forensic personnel to the scene."

After hanging up the phone, Officer Sato found a crushed piece of dried paint in the room.

This shows that before Shindo Sumire was taken away, someone else came here.

Combined with the previous flat tire on the road, Officer Sato felt that this case was not simple.
