Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Chapter 113 The Turbulence at the Pre-Court Meeting

In the law firm of Kisaki, Eri Mori was sitting at her desk, studying a document carefully. Suddenly, she heard a piece of news that surprised her.

"Request additional search?" Eri Mori Kisaki raised her head and looked at Officer Shiratori standing in front of her with a puzzled look on her face.

"Yes, it was commissioned by Prosecutor Kusakabe."

Mao Lilan also heard the news and was filled with worry. "Then according to the search results, Dad may not be prosecuted, right?"

Officer Shiratori looked at Ran Maoli and shook her head. "No, the additional search was the personal opinion of Prosecutor Kusakabe. The public security police seem to have decided to prosecute."

Maori Kisaki Eri frowned even more when she heard this. "Wait, why can the police interfere with the prosecution? The police should be supervised by the prosecutors. In any case, prosecution is the exclusive power of the prosecutors."

When Tachibana Keiko heard what Maori Kisaki said, she turned her head and said, "Yes, it is just as you said, but this is only limited to the criminal department or special investigation department of the prosecutor's office. The situation at the Ministry of Public Security is a little different, as you know, teacher.

Yes, we can't simply say the Ministry of Public Security. After all, the Metropolitan Police Department, the National Police Agency, and the Prosecutors' Office all have their own Public Security Departments. The police will transfer the search results to the prosecutors, and the prosecutors will accept them and investigate the case again.

Generally speaking, whether to prosecute a suspect is determined by the prosecutor based on the results of the prosecution's investigation. However, the Ministry of Public Security is the only one that is different.

To be clear, the prosecutors' public security is no match for the police's public security. Whether it's the number of investigators or the technology, there is a huge difference. Therefore, when it comes to the issue of prosecution, it is sometimes affected by "public security considerations."

Especially with the explosion at the summit venue, it is tantamount to smearing the public security police, and you can imagine the pressure of "must prosecute". "

Kudo Yuki had been listening to Tachibana Keiko's words quietly, with no expression on her face, but she was thinking about something in her heart.

She sensed the signal of the bug on Ju Jingzi, but she did not choose to block it. She looked at this cell phone lawyer with a playful smile, thinking that maybe she would get something different.

Mao Lilan was even more worried after hearing what Tachibana Keiko said. She was even more worried: "Then, Dad will definitely be prosecuted."

Maori Kisaki Eri felt a little helpless after hearing what Maori Ran said. This case is very unfavorable to Maori Kogoro.

However, she believed that Maori Kogoro was innocent, and she decided to do her best to help Maori Kogoro's own husband.

Conan came to the Metropolitan Police Department accompanied by his sister. Conan asked Kudo Yuki to go with him, after all, it would be more convenient to act with his sister around.

After they found Officer Megure, Conan put his skateboard aside familiarly, "Officer Megure, are you investigating the possibility that Uncle Kogoro's computer was manipulated by someone else?"

Inspector Megure turned to look at Conan, "Indeed, Prosecutor Kusakabe asked us to conduct an additional search."

Conan wanted to know new clues, so he pestered Inspector Megure, "Tell me, just tell me what you can. Shinichi said he wanted to help Uncle Kogoro, so any information will be fine."

Kudo Yuki looked at the excuses Conan made up and laughed in her heart, too lazy to complain.

Just when she was about to pretend not to hear, Amuro Toru appeared silently. He walked silently to Kudo Yuki's side, but his eyes turned to Conan, interrupting their conversation: "What's wrong with Mr. Maori?"

Conan looked at Amuro Toru with a calm expression: "Did you hear everything?"

Amuro Toru pretended to be confused and said, "What did you hear? I was just worried about Mr. Mori, so I brought some comfort items from Poirot."

Inspector Megure replied, "Mouri, he's not here anymore."

Conan sat on the chair and stared at Amuro Toru: "If the suspect is sent for inspection, in principle he will be transferred to the detention center. Mr. Amuro, you don't know that, do you?"

Amuro Toru touched his chin with his left hand, held the shopping bag in his right hand against his left elbow, and showed a meaningful smile on his face: "Oh? Is that so? You are still so knowledgeable."

After saying that, Amuro Toru turned around, using the shopping bag in his right hand as a cover, and quietly held Kudo Yuki's hand from an angle that Conan couldn't see. Kudo Yuki rolled her eyes at him, and Amuro Toru let go of her hand with some regret, and then walked away.

Officer Megure reminded Amuro Toru before he left: "Also, you can't send gifts into the detention center."

Amuro Toru smiled and waved his hand: "I understand."

He actually walked straight past Yuya Kazami, who took this opportunity to lower his voice and convey a message: "2291, investment successful."

When Kudo Yuki heard Yuya Kazami's voice, she knew the outcome of the matter.

Conan's attention was now on Toru Amuro and Yuya Kazami. If he had paid more attention to his sister, he would have realized that Yuki Kudo had already guessed Toru Amuro's next plan.

Conan took the opportunity to call out to Yuya Kazami: "Mr. Detective, please return the computer I took from my uncle to me. Please, please."

He held Yuya Kazami's hand tightly and quietly used him as a tracker when he was not paying attention. "That's evidence. I can't give it back to you yet."

Officer Megure walked up to Conan and grabbed the back of his collar: "Hey, Conan, don't do this."

Conan pretended to be frustrated: "That's the game the doctor made for me."

Yuya Kazami walked away. He saw Yuki Kudo. They both pretended not to know each other. Yuki Kudo walked towards Conan and rescued him from Inspector Megure: "Conan, let's go."

Kudo Yuki grabbed Conan by the back of his shirt collar and said, "Conan, you pressed the tracker on Kazami, didn't you?"

"Sis, you've seen it. Find some time to go and listen together."

Kudo Yuki looked at her brother helplessly: "I know."

Conan had no choice but to separate from Officer Megure holding his skateboard. After returning to the Hime Law Firm, Mao Lilan was relieved to see them: "Sister Xue, it's a good thing you are here, otherwise I don't know how to contact Conan."

"What happened?"

Mao Lilan said in a bad mood: "Conan, I called you several times, did you answer?"

Conan quickly took out his cell phone, "The battery is dead."

Maori Kisaki Eri considerately charged Conan's phone, "Why are you calling me?"

Mao Lilan looked at Conan gently: "The information about the incident will be here soon."

Maori Kisaki Eri interjected: "Ran said she wanted to show it to Conan, too."

Mao Lilan muttered quietly: "Because Conan always notices something interesting, and if there is any situation, he might tell Shinichi."

Conan looked at Mao Lilan and made a solemn promise: "Well, I will definitely tell Shinichi brother."

Mao Lilan squatted down and hugged Conan, whispering softly in his ear: "Thank you, Shinichi."

Conan's face suddenly turned slightly red, and Kudo Yuki looked at Conan with a smile, "Why don't you adjust your state quickly." After she finished speaking, Conan's blush quickly faded away.

At this time, Ju Jingzi walked in: "Sorry for the wait, this is the evidence submitted by the prosecution."

Conan immediately stepped forward and said, "So, you have decided to sue your uncle?"

"I've received contact from the Procuratorate saying they'll file charges soon."

Mao Lilan was worried about her father, and Mao Li Feiying smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, I will definitely rescue him."

Ju Jingzi took out the documents and placed them on the table: "Confession record, on-site appraisal report, and on-site forensic photos."

Mao Lilan couldn't help but sigh: "It's a lot."

Conan quickly flipped through the clues, while Kudo Yuki activated her true-life reproduction skills and understood the cause and effect of the matter clearly.

She decisively picked up a picture with the number 10 and deliberately shook it at Conan's charging phone, and pointed her finger at an inconspicuous small piece of debris, pretending to fan it.

Amuro Toru saw what Kudo Yuki did through Conan's phone, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, thinking to himself: "Xiaoxue, this is evidence that I tampered with Conan's phone and the case."

Kudo Yuki handed the picture in her hand to Conan: "Conan, look at this picture, don't you think it looks familiar?"

Conan took a look and said, "I just felt like I had seen it somewhere before. It was just an inconspicuous piece of black glass."

Maoriki Eri sighed and flipped through the files: "After reading this, even I know the method of explosion very well."

Tachibana Keiko exclaimed: "The police's search data is like a criminal operation manual."

At this time, Ju Jingzi's phone rang: "Court, pre-trial meeting."

After the call was hung up, Conan found a reason to ask Kudo Yuki to accompany him. In fact, he wanted to go to the supermarket with his sister to eavesdrop on the conversation between Kazami Yuya and Amuro Toru.

Conan put the same glasses on Kudo Yukiya, and then heard the voice of Kazami Yuya: "Mr. Furuya, why are you so persistent in turning this case into an incident?"

"If it's treated as an accident, we won't even be able to get a search warrant."

"As a public security officer, you can conduct illegal searches without a search warrant."

"That's why we have to make sure there is a legal means to do so. Otherwise, we will be forced into a dead end. We must deal with the consequences of the illegal work we have done. This is the way the police should do it."

Yuya Kazami lowered his voice: "However, whether it is legal to make the incident public or illegal to cover it up."

"Of course. The public security department should be the ones who have the final say on this matter."

After listening to the conversation, Kudo Yuki returned the glasses to Conan: "Take them out next time you need them. Let's go and meet up with Mao Lilan and the others."

Then the two of them left the supermarket together and headed to the place they had agreed to meet with Mao Lilan and the others.

In the Capital District Court, Mao Lilan walked back and forth anxiously with an uneasy look on her face. Her heart could not calm down. Her steps were a little flustered and her face was full of worry.

At this time, Maori Kisaki Eri looked at her daughter and couldn't help but say, "Lan, calm down."

Seeing this, Conan began to ask on behalf of Mao Lilan: "It's not the trial today, right?"

Maori Kisaki Eri's expression was serious: "Yes, it is a pre-trial meeting. It is just to confirm the evidence and dispute points and decide the schedule. Didn't I say that?"

However, Mao Lilan was still worried, frowning all the time, and twisting her hands unconsciously. Kudo Yuki then reminded her: "Xiaolan, remember what I told you? Now I will tell you the second half of the sentence. Your mother is your role model, such as in this situation."

After hearing what Kudo Yuki said, Mao Lilan felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She tried to calm herself down, and her emotions became a little more stable.

Maori Kisaki Eri looked at Kudo Yuki with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "I didn't expect that just one sentence from you would calm her down."

Kudo Yuki just smiled faintly, "I just want Xiaolan to understand what is the most correct choice in certain situations."

At this moment, Tachibana Keiko came hurriedly. She took out a document from her bag, looking a little hurried: "It's the same evidence we got before, the evidence presented by Prosecutor Kusakabe. This is a list. The trial date is also the same as expected. Sorry, you guys take a look first. I'm going to the bathroom."

After saying that, she hurried away. Kudo Yuki was about to take the document and take a look, but then Conan suddenly discovered the whereabouts of Kazami Yuya. He hurriedly grabbed Kudo Yuki's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Sister, follow me."

The two tiptoed to a more secluded location nearby. Conan handed the glasses to his sister, and Kudo Yuki heard Kazami Yuya reporting the situation: "According to the results of our Public Security Department's investigation, it is now clear that 'Nor' was used to illegally access the explosion site."

Inspector Megure's voice was filled with doubt: "Nor?"

Yuya Kazami went on to explain in detail: "Browser software that encrypts IP addresses and accesses them through multiple computers so that their source cannot be traced."

Kurodabei's deep voice came: "Can Nor's anonymity be lifted?"

“In principle, it cannot be unlocked. However, if the Nor browser has a configuration error or a bug, it may lock the user;

On the other hand, if we create a weakness in the prisoner's Nor browser, we may be able to track him. Now, our Ministry of Public Security is exploring whether we can trace the server and lock the user. "

At this moment, Yuya Kazami's phone suddenly rang with a rapid ring: "Sorry, there is a call for a meeting. I will leave for the time being."

Kuroda Bei nodded slightly, tacitly allowing him to leave.

Just as Kazami Yuya walked away, Amuro Toru suddenly appeared behind Conan, "Are you eavesdropping on the search meeting?"

Conan was startled by Amuro Toru's voice. Before Kudo Yuki could say anything, Conan asked directly: "Why are you here?"

Amuro Toru did not answer directly, but asked in a roundabout way: "As long as it is related to Maori Kogoro, you will risk your life, or is it for your Xiaolan?"
