In fact, Miller should have found nothing when investigating Zero. It was just that Vermouth found Conan when investigating Zero and eliminated all traces of Conan at the same time.

Inevitably, the traces of Zero were also blurred, leaving Miller clueless.

When Xiaocheng thought about Miller's last words, he suddenly felt a headache. He wondered why this guy said this before he left?

Did he realize something was wrong? That’s impossible. If he really realized something was wrong, he would probably take action.

It was hard for Xiaocheng to imagine what Zero had done to make the German Federal Criminal Investigation Bureau chase him across borders.

What kind of hatred and grudge is that? Damn it, I haven’t had any nightmares recently, so I don’t have any new memories.

This memory does not exist at all, or maybe Zero doesn't take this person seriously at all?

He didn't know, he only knew that Miller was about to give up, but he finally said this, which gave him a headache. He understood it when he answered the phone just now.

What Miller said about the identity of the German Federal Criminal Investigation Bureau should be true.

If he was really a bad guy, how could he have had that expression and actions at that time? In short, he was a real policeman.

Just like a sentence in Zero's memory.

The police? They are just a group of people who think they have the power to enforce the law but are controlled by the law. They also have foolish morals and ridiculous kindness.

At the Beika Central Hospital, Conan looked at Xiaocheng who came hurriedly, staring at him with dead fish eyes. What was Xiaocheng doing? Why did he disappear at the critical moment?

"Hey, don't look at me like that. There are always unexpected things, hehe..." Xiaocheng looked at Conan and hurried forward to please him.

"Really? But then again, did you really see any street food?"

Conan didn't believe it. He knew that although Xiaocheng was unreliable on weekdays, he never did anything when something happened, except for the time when he met Kid.

"Well, let's not talk about this. How is Dr. Agasa now? What's the current situation?" Xiaocheng took Conan's hand, trying to distract him.

"Oh..." Conan glanced at Xiaocheng, sighed, and thought, forget it, he wouldn't bother with this guy.

Then he told Xiaocheng that Dr. Agasa was fine, and that the order in which the criminals attacked was based on the pattern of playing cards.

The first one is Inspector Megure. His full name is Megure Jusan, which corresponds to the K in poker. The second one is Kisaki Eri. The English name of Kisaki is Queen, which corresponds to the Q in poker.

Next is Dr. Agasa. His full name is Dr. Agasa. The word "士" (士) can be broken down into ten ones, so it corresponds to the poker J.

Xiaocheng listened to Conan's explanation, which seemed a bit far-fetched. If it weren't for the clues left by the criminals at the crime scene, no one would have made the connection. Could it be that the criminals had ulterior motives?

Xiaocheng communicated this question to Conan, and Conan nodded.

"It's possible, but unfortunately, there are too few clues now to jump to conclusion."

Listening to Conan's words, he knew that this was very likely. For Conan, who believed that there was only one truth, he would not make a conclusion based on his senses and a few inferences.

"So are we going to find the next victim, Poker Card 10, now?" Xiaocheng asked.

"These people are all related to my uncle, so I suspect the next target should also be someone my uncle knows. And from what Officer Megure said, the criminal might be a guy named Murakami Takeshi."

Conan thought for a moment and replied.

"Murakami-jo?" Xiao Cheng frowned. Is it this guy? No, if this is really a theater version, how could the murderer be exposed so quickly?

"Yes, according to Officer Megure, he was caught by Uncle Mori ten years ago and was released from prison a week ago. His current behavior is most likely revenge." Conan recalled what Megure said.

Xiaocheng listened to what Conan said. If he hadn't realized that this was the world of science, he might have believed it.

However, the more he listened, the more he felt that it was impossible, as it did not conform to the scientific approach.

"Does Uncle Maori know anyone with the number 10 in his name?" Xiaocheng looked at Conan.

"This is where we are going, Towako Nightclub." Conan said slowly.

Uh, Xiao Cheng was slightly stunned. Towako? Isn't that the woman that Kogoro had been staring at in the French restaurant last time? It's her.

After Xiaocheng met the group, they were already preparing to go to the nightclub. When they arrived at the nightclub, it was already slightly dark.

Kogoro led a group of people into the nightclub and saw Towako the first thing he saw. He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Towako's little hand.

"Ms. Towako, I'm so glad you're okay."

Towako was obviously a little stunned: "I'm fine, is there something wrong?"

Then Kogoro briefly told her what had happened, and Inspector Megure would send someone to look after Towako.

In the end, Kogoro looked at Ojo, Conan and Ran and decided to let them go back first and be escorted by Officer Shiratori.

In the car, Xiaocheng thought about the fact that Miller would come to pick him up tomorrow, and he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed?

At this time, Xiaolan was also worried about Kogoro, and about what Officer Shiratori had said before, and she was a little worried.

As a detective, Conan sat between the two of them, looking left and right. For some reason, he suddenly felt heavy in his heart. Fortunately, Xiaolan broke the atmosphere at this time.

"By the way, Officer Shiratori, did you want to say something when we were in the hospital earlier?"

"Yes, it's about Murakami-jo." Conan also continued.

Shiratori reacted to Conan's words and began to answer.

It was roughly ten years ago, when Kogoro and Megure were working on a case. At that time, Megure's rank was relatively low.

In short, the two of them worked together to catch Murakami, but when taking a statement at the police station, Murakami suddenly had to go to the bathroom.

Kogoro and Megure sent one of their men to follow Murakami, and the two of them waited at the door.

At this time, Eri Kisaki brought her little sister Xiaolan to the police station to find Kogoro, but unexpectedly, Murakami Takeshi actually attacked the following policeman, snatched his gun, then rushed out of the bathroom and kidnapped Eri Kisaki.

"I remember now. I remember that at that time, my father seemed to have shot my mother. I had forgotten about this matter." Xiaolan looked a little sad at the moment. Why did her father shoot her mother?

"But why did Dad shoot at that time?" Xiaolan was a little confused. She was eager to know what happened.

"I think maybe he was very confident in his shooting skills and thought he could avoid the hostage and shoot the gangster, but he didn't expect the bullet to hit your mother instead."

"I heard that there was a big dispute in the police station because he opened fire without regard for the safety of the hostages. It seems that your father stopped being a policeman after that."

There was a hint of regret in his tone, Kogoro still had an image in Shiratori's heart.

He felt it was a pity that Kogoro didn't become a policeman. He had heard many stories about Kogoro when he was a policeman.
