Shira continued to reason, "If it's a handkerchief or something like that, the texture is too fine to be used as a filter."

Shira pretended to be serious: "Is there anything that is made of cloth that allows air to pass through and has a very tight structure?"

"Could it be...could it be the mask?" Conan looked at Sera with his cute big eyes: "You can breathe when you wear a mask."

"But the dust won't get through, will it?"

"That's right! You're really Conan." Sera stroked his hair with a smile in her eyes.

"Oh right! Speaking of masks." Conan turned his head and looked at Xiaolan: "The day before the incident, big brother was also wearing a mask, right? "

Xiao Lan's heart started beating fast, and she kept swallowing to relieve her nervousness: "Well... I had a cold that day."

"Hmm?" Conan pouted.

Shira deliberately ignored Xiaolan and continued with the topic: "But what could it be, more important than running away."

"Things that have to be vacuumed up......"

"That's right!" Gao Mu clapped his hands, "The policewoman who told me about this case once mentioned it."

"Someone passed by the thief and heard a very strange noise."

"Sound? What kind of sound exactly?"

"It is said that when the thief runs, he seems to make a clicking sound."

"Crack, crack?" Sato raised his chest and said, "That means one of the shoes got stuck in something."

"That's right!" Sato smiled calmly, "For example, if you accidentally step on something hard that will pierce the sole of your shoe."

"But what could he have stepped on?" Shira sighed, "It should be something more important than running away."

Conan took off his glasses and held them in his hand: "That thing, could it be a pair of glasses?"

"If you step on it, the lens will break."

"That must be it!" Gao Mu nodded excitedly: "The murderer was struggling with the woman."

"He accidentally dropped his glasses and stepped on them! That's why the murderer had to use a vacuum cleaner made from a water pipe before escaping."

“Even the tiny fragments of broken lenses are recovered, because even if they are tiny fragments, as long as we know the type and degree of the lens.”

“You can also find out who purchased it.”

"The police are really awesome!" Sato shook himself and said in a sweet voice.

"old........"

Everyone's eyes turned to Mr. Xiaolan at the same time.

"Boss!" Xiao Lan stood up suddenly and put his hands on the table: "I...I was wearing glasses that day, right?"

"Hmm..." the boss recalled, "It seems that he did wear it!"

Xiao Lan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Shiliang said coldly: "But didn't you also wear a glasses case at that time?"

"What if I carry a glasses case?"

"Conan, do you have a glasses case with you?"

"I didn't bring it." Conan took out his pocket and said, "Because I always wear glasses, I don't need to bring a box."

"I know how to bring it——" Conan sneered: "It should be only those who can use it separately for myopia and hyperopia."

"Or maybe he just bought a new pair of glasses and it hasn't been long."

Mr. Xiaolan stood there in a daze, his expression becoming increasingly numb.

"The new glasses have a higher degree, which makes me dizzy when I wear them, so I heard that some people will carry the old pair with them until they get used to it."

"Speaking of which," the boss asked, "Why don't I see you wearing those new glasses?"

"What...what new glasses?" Mr. Xiaolan stuttered a little.

"Ah? Didn't you wear it before?" The boss scratched his face, "On the day when the murdered lady picked a fight with you."

"Did I?........." Xiao Lan looked more and more panicked.

"But it's strange." Gao Mu held his chin with his hand and thought: "I heard that the police even checked the toilet drain."

Gao Mu said something ambiguous: "Why can't we find the broken lens?"

"Really?" Sato agreed seriously.

"Yes!" Gao Mu took a deep breath: "There are three suspects in total, and each of them has been searched."

“But it seems that not everyone has it.”

Sato patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we will find it in the end! Just tell everyone about it."

Sato gave a thumbs up: "After all, Neon police are excellent!"

While they were talking, Mr. Xiaolan sneaked into the bathroom.

Xiao Lan's legs were shaking and she felt very nervous. She propped one knee on the toilet lid and lifted the lid on the sink to the side.

He rolled up his sleeves, reached into the sink, and fumbled around: "This is terrible! We must get it back before the police find out!"

"Strange?" The little blue eyes narrowed into different sizes.

"No!? How could there be no!?"

"Dong Dong Dong!!"

"That..." Xiao Lan replied with a trembling voice: "There is someone inside!"

"Dong Dong Dong!!"

"I told you! There's someone inside!"

"Peng!!"

Sera kicked open the door of the toilet, and Sato took out the lens remnants wrapped in a plastic bag and held it high in front of him.

"I'm sorry!" Sato pursed her bright red lips: "We found these fragments half a day ago."

"You've probably thought about flushing it down the toilet, haven't you?"

Sato smiled but said nothing: "But you are a thoughtful person. If the police investigate the drain, then we will be doomed."

Gao Mu put his hands in his pockets: "So that's why you sank it into the water in the toilet tank, right? Together with the parts of the glasses."

Shiliang walked up to Xiaolan and continued to reason: "The lens is in the water. If you don't look carefully, you won't find it at all."

"If the new glasses were frameless, the only part that would sink into the water would be the nose pads."

"There is a high chance that it could be mistaken for a part inside a toilet tank and be carelessly overlooked or left unnoticed."

Conan smiled faintly and adjusted the bow on his chest: "And at first glance, it doesn't look like stolen jewelry."

"However, you seem to have taken back the temples and nose pads the day after the incident."

Sato took off his sunglasses: "But you'll know if you examine the lenses."

She put her hands on her waist and said, "Those are the lenses you bought from an optical shop last month."

"Even if that's the case!" Xiao Lan was sweating profusely: "What can it prove?!"

Xiao Lan showed a ferocious expression: "This can't be used as evidence that I killed that woman, right?"
