The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

When she heard the code name Bourbon, Vermouth's eyes changed slightly, and a wave of emotion rose in her heart.

She steadied her tone and asked calmly: "Can I understand it this way? Bourbon is an undercover agent in the organization..."

"There is no conclusive evidence yet."

Scotch interrupted her, "But it was Lord Rum's order to bring him back, and this is also just in case..."

When Vermouth heard this, for some reason, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I know."

After hanging up the call, Vermouth turned and left.

...

2:00 p.m., Police Hospital.

The ambulance successfully arrived at the hospital with Curacao. Along the way, except for a short traffic jam, no suspicious people approached.

Under the arrangement of the public security, Curacao was admitted to the confidential ward and equipped with 24-hour staff care.

When Qin Zhibo and Conan arrived at the hospital, they saw Sato sitting on a bench in the public rest area, still not leaving, with a serious face and bowed his head thinking.

"Officer Sato!"

Takagi, who arrived later, ran over and handed the car keys to Sato.

Sato took the car keys and put them in his pocket. Takagi scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Um, Officer Sato, I have something to tell you..."

"What? Did you scratch the car?" Sato raised his head.

"No..."

Takagi suddenly bowed deeply, "I'm very sorry, there was a bug on me just now! Thanks to Mr. Qin for finding it..."

"But our conversation in the medical building may have been leaked!"

"What?"

Sato was shocked, with some doubts in her eyes.

She was thinking quickly, recalling that she and Takagi received Megure's order from the Metropolitan Police Department, and then went to the Toudou Aquarium. They didn't come into contact with anyone else along the way.

Except...

"Could it be the blonde woman who almost fell at that time?"

"Yes! I'm very sorry!"

Takagi nodded and bowed again to apologize.

Faced with Takagi's apology, Sato didn't know what to say for a while.

But the incident had already happened, and no amount of blame would help.

And more importantly, since someone risked putting a bug on the police, it meant that there were other people or organizations behind the amnesiac woman.

"Report this to Officer Megure immediately!"

Sato had just picked up the phone when a voice came from the corner of the corridor.

"No need to call, I'm here."

The pot-bellied Megure walked up the steps and stopped Sato's actions.

"Officer Megure!"

Sato and Takagi immediately ran to Megure, and both raised their hands to salute.

But behind Megure stood a burly, somewhat ferocious-looking man in a suit.

The man had one hand in his pocket, and the right frame of his square glasses was pure black, with scars on the skin underneath from burns.

As soon as Sato and Takagi's eyes met his, they were shocked by his aura and speechless.

At this time, Megure stepped aside and took the initiative to introduce himself.

"Sato, Takagi, let me introduce you."

"This is Inspector Kuroda, who was sent by the higher-ups to replace Officer Matsumoto. He will be the officer of the Investigation Division 1 from now on."

A new officer?

Sato and Takagi were startled. This sudden arrival of an airborne boss caught them off guard.

Especially a boss with this appearance.

Although the previous Officer Matsumoto was not very approachable, this one was not only vicious but also had a murderous aura?

At this time, the man stepped forward and introduced himself.

"My name is Kuroda Heibei. Please give me your guidance when we work together in the future."

Kuroda Heibei took the initiative to be polite and eased the somewhat tense atmosphere.

"I don't deserve it, Officer Kuroda."

Sato responded neither servilely nor arrogantly, and saluted Kuroda Heibei at the same time as Takagi.

Kuroda Bei nodded, and then said: "I have learned about your situation from Megure..."

"Although this case happened within Tokyo, it happened inside the National Police Agency, and the public security police were directly involved, so it is better to give them the initiative to investigate."

When these words came out, Sato's eyes glared, and she wanted to argue.

But Megure on the opposite side winked and shook his head slightly, indicating that she should stop talking.

Not giving face to the new boss here clearly shows that she doesn't want to stay in the Investigation Division in the future.

And Megure also believes that the heads of both agencies must have already said hello on this matter, and it is not something that can be decided by a quarrel between police officers of their level.

Kuroda Bei saw that Sato stopped talking, and turned to look at Qin Zhibo and Conan on the side.

Megure also saw Qin Zhibo and was a little surprised.

"Brother Qin, why are you here?"

"Manager Kuroda, this is..."

Just as Megure was about to introduce his new boss, who had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, Kuroda Heibei shook his head and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"No need to introduce, we know each other."

"You know each other?"

Megure stared, watching Qin Zhibo and Kuroda Heibei holding hands.

"You came to Tokyo?" Qin Zhibo asked.

"Well, I said, we will meet again soon."

The last time they parted in Nagano Prefecture, Kuroda Heibei said this to Qin Zhibo.

It's just that Qin Zhibo didn't expect that they would meet in this form.

The transfer of the organization's direct person in charge back to Tokyo means that the Japanese Public Security Bureau will put the investigation of the organization on the agenda.

After a brief greeting with Qin Zhibo, Kuroda Heibei looked down at Conan at the former's feet.

"Are you Edogawa Conan?"

"Yes."

Conan looked up at Kuroda Heibei in front of him, with a childlike smile of his age.

If he hadn't been by Qin Zhibo's side, he would have been scared to meet this strange man with one eye that looked problematic.

But since he knew Qin Zhibo, he could basically assume that he was a good person, so he was not so nervous.

But Conan was still a little curious about Kuroda Heibei knowing his name.

"Has Officer Kuroda heard of my name?"

"Yes, my previous subordinates seem to have received a lot of care from you..."

Kuroda Heibei also accidentally discovered this "intelligent and brave" elementary school student from the archives of Nagano Prefecture, so he remembered him.

When I saw him today, he was indeed a little different.

At this time, Sato saluted again and said loudly: "Report to Manager Kuroda!"

"Just now, when Officer Takagi and I went to the Toudou Aquarium to deal with the case of the amnesiac woman, Officer Takagi was bugged, causing our conversation in the medical building to be leaked."

"What?"

Megure was shocked, and then turned to look at Takagi and scolded: "Takagi! How could you make such a low-level mistake?"

"I'm very sorry..."

Takagi's breath was weak, and he could only apologize continuously.

Kuroda, Qin Zhibo, and Conan next to him all saw that Megure scolded Takagi first, in fact, to protect Takagi.

Otherwise, if the new Kuroda was asked to punish him, the consequences would not be as simple as writing a review and deducting salary.

Kuroda ignored Megure's thoughts of protecting his subordinates, and looked directly at Sato and asked seriously: "What does the person who put the bug on Takagi look like?"

"It's a blonde woman, maybe a foreigner, but..." Sato's tone was a little hesitant.

Kuroda asked, "But what?"

"I feel like I've seen her somewhere recently, and I've been thinking about it just now..."

Sato looked up and saw Qin Zhibo, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

"I remember! It's American actress Chris Wynyard!"

"That woman looks very similar to that actress!"

After Sato's reminder, Takagi suddenly said, "Yes! No wonder I feel a little familiar..."

"But how could that actress appear in an aquarium in Japan? It must be someone who looks similar, right?"

Kuroda also analyzed at this time: "If it's just this level, there is no way to issue a wanted order, otherwise it may cause unnecessary public opinion trouble internationally..."

The several police officers present did not think that the person who looked very much like the actress "Chris Wynyard" had any relationship with the actress herself, it was simply that the two looked more alike.

Only Qin Zhibo and Conan on the side had a slight change of expression, and they had already guessed who the person who put the bug was.

It was Chris Wynyard herself!

Or you can call her by her official code name in the organization, Vermouth.

It seems that the organization has completely grasped Curacao's movements, and now they just need to take her back.

Qin Zhibo and Conan exchanged glances and confirmed the current serious situation.

At this moment, Kazami Yuya came from the end of the corridor.

Seeing that Sato and Takagi were still staying here, just as he was about to ask questions, he saw Kuroda Heibei standing behind them.

Kazami Yuya still knew Kuroda Heibei, who was the behind-the-scenes director of the Security Planning Section and his superior.

But just as he was about to raise his hand to salute, Kuroda Heibei gave him a look that told him not to make a fuss.

Kazami Yuya could only stop raising his hand to salute, and instead raised his hand to adjust the glasses on his nose.

"You two, you should have received the order from above, right?"

"Next is the area of ​​the public security police, please leave here first."

In front of Megure, Yuya Kazami didn't show much courtesy to Sato and Takagi, and directly wanted to drive them away.

This made Sato, who didn't have the right to handle the case, a little annoyed. Just as he was about to argue, he was stopped by Kuroda Heibei.

"Sato, Takagi, you go back to the Metropolitan Police Department first."

"And Megure, you go back and wait, I will talk about the bug..."

"Yes."

Megure immediately obediently pulled Sato and Takagi away, leaving Kuroda Heibei, Qin Zhibo, Conan, and Yuya Kazami in the rest area.

Kuroda Heibei put his hands in his pockets and slowly walked to Yuya Kazami.

"Although the public security police have more power, in Tokyo, we still need to rely on the power of the Metropolitan Police Department to get things done better..."

"I think Furuya Rei should have taught you this, right?"

Kuroda Heibei's words were full of majesty, and the arrogant Kazami Yuya immediately lowered his head in dejection.

"Okay, just pay attention next time."

"Where is the woman's ward? Take us there."

Kazami Yuya showed a surprised expression, and he was a little skeptical about the word "us".

"Excuse me, this little kid also..."

The one who made Kazami Yuya disagree was Conan.

Although the woman was picked up by Conan, it was really strange to let a child go to such an extent.

Kuroda Heibei did not answer, but looked at Qin Zhibo, meaning to ask Qin Zhibo's opinion.

Qin Zhibo smiled directly and said, "There is no problem with this child."

With Qin Zhibo's guarantee, Conan finally experienced the feeling of unimpeded access and came to the heavily protected confidential ward.

The woman lay quietly on the bed, her eyes closed, connected to various life detection instruments, and saline dripped on her arm.

"The doctor said her condition is not serious, and she should wake up at any time..."

"But she may still maintain her amnesia after waking up, and it is not clear how to restore her memory."

Kazami Yuya stood behind and repeated the doctor's original words.

Kuroda Heibei stood on the side of the bed, leaned forward slightly, stared at the woman's face and looked carefully.

Qin Zhibo also told the information about the woman at this time.

"Her code name is Curacao, and it is said that she is a confidant of Rum, the second in command of the organization."

"This is the information sent back by Bourbon..."

Kuroda Heibei straightened his body, retracted his gaze, and nodded slightly.

"Well, it seems that the organization will do whatever it takes to get her back next..."

"Let's not talk about that for now. Is there any way to know the specific circumstances of the leak of the undercover list?"

Conan, who was standing low, took out a broken mobile phone from his pocket and held it in front of Kuroda Heibei.

"This phone was found next to her, and it is damaged."

"But I think as long as we find a professional to restore it, we can restore the data inside and know who she communicated with during that time."

Kuroda Heibei took the phone and looked at Conan again.

But he didn't say much, but handed the phone directly to Kazami Yuya and asked him to find someone to repair it.

Kazami Yuya didn't dare to neglect it and went out to do it immediately.

After all, this matter is related to whether Furuya Rei's hidden identity is still safe.

As soon as Kazami Yuya left, Conan's phone rang.

Conan picked up the phone and saw that it was Mitsuhiko's number, so he ran to the side and answered it.

"Conan, where are you now?"

"I... came to the hospital with Mr. Qin..."

"What? Conan is so cunning!"

The three children on the other side of the phone made a dissatisfied voice, "You went to visit your sister alone without telling us!"

In response, Conan could only helplessly perfunctorily say: "Aren't you going to continue playing in the aquarium? So I didn't disturb you..."

"How can we still have the mood to play after what happened to our sister?"

Mitsuo Yan retorted, then took out his notebook and said: "My sister said some strange things on the Ferris wheel just now, and I wrote them down."

"I checked these strange words on the Internet, and they seem to be the names of wine."

"The names of wine!"

Conan's face changed, and he hurriedly asked: "What did she say?"

Mitsuo Yan read out in a serious manner: "It's Stout, Aquavit, and Westland..."

"And Bourbon and Kiehl's."

"Conan, could this big sister be a saleswoman who makes a living by selling alcohol?"
