The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

It was already afternoon when he returned to Tomohiro Detective Agency, and Toru Amuro was adhering to his duty as a resident detective.

Seeing Qin Zhibo back, Amuro revealed a happy expression on his face.

"The teacher is back!"

Toru Amuro's happiness was not faked. He had not followed up on Qin Zhibo's "main line" in the past two days, and Toru Amuro was bored to death.

Although Toru Amuro still commands a group of public security men headed by Yuya Kazami, he will not let these people follow the organization cadres rashly.

All the cadres in the organization are top experts in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. Sending subordinates who are not high enough will inevitably alert the enemy, or even kill someone.

Therefore, in order to obtain Qin Zhibo's information, Amuro Toru could only come in person.

Amuro warmly took the suitcase from Qin Zhibo, weighed it, and casually asked Qin Zhibo what he was busy with these days.

Qin Zhibo didn't shy away from it, and bluntly said that he had handled a case about "showing affection and dying quickly".

Qin Zhibo gave an overview of the case, and Amuro nodded understandingly.

"So the teacher already knew that a murder would happen there, so he went to that villa?"

"To some extent, yes"

If the Maori family's itinerary can be known in advance, Qin Zhibo can indeed "predict the unknown".

Unexpectedly, Toru Amuro's expression turned serious and he began to think seriously because of his casual bragging.

Damn, he took it seriously.

"Actually, I went there after receiving a request from the boss there."

After hearing this, Amuro Toru felt relieved. Fortunately, he did not miss the main line.

The master and apprentice were sitting on the sofa chatting when there was a sudden knock on the door of the office.

Snap, snap, snap——

Toru Amuro walked over and opened the door. Standing at the door was a man in a suit and leather shoes and sunglasses.

"Hello, this is Zhibo Detective Agency. Do you have anything you would like to consult or entrust?"

After receiving customers during this period of time, Toru Amuro has become proficient in the reception process of the detective agency, even more proficient than Qin Zhibo.

The man held a small gift box in his hand, "You must be Mr. Toru Amuro, right?"

"Yes, I am." Toru Amuro nodded and glanced at the gift box cautiously.

Due to professional reasons, Toru Amuro is very wary of box-shaped objects brought by unknown persons.

"That's right, this is a gift from Ms. Suzuki Sonoko. Thank you for saving your life in the department store last time. Please accept it."

The man in a suit solemnly presented the gift, Toru Amuro accepted it with a confused look, and the man left.

After Toru Amuro returned to the sofa after receiving the gift, Qin Zhibo immediately encouraged him: "Open it quickly and see what's inside?"

At Chaodu Villa, Qin Zhibo knew that Yuanzi had given Kyogoku Zhenfike and a hand-knitted sweater, and now he was also curious about what Yuanzi had given Amuro Toru.

Toru Amuro didn't show any restraint, she just pulled the ribbon on the gift box, opened the wrapping paper, and opened the box.

Inside was a peaked cap, green in color.

Toru Amuro picked up the hat and looked at it from side to side.

Strictly speaking, the hat is green and white, with a knuckle-wide white strip on the brim. The design is quite nice.

But it still cannot escape the definition of being a cuckold.

"The hat is nice. It looks pretty."

Amuro Toru tried it on, and Qin Zhibo praised it sincerely.

In fact, I got this gift because Tohru Amuro said that she likes the color green, so Sonoko thought that it would be better to give hats to friends.

Green + hat = cuckold.

But in fact, Toru Amuro has no particular favorite color. He only likes green because he hates red.

Akai's red is equivalent to red.

Toru Amuro threw the useless ribbons and wrapping paper into the trash can, as if he was leaving get off work wearing a hat.

Pretty good.

"By the way, teacher, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Do you have any special arrangements?"

Qin Zhibo was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

"There should be no arrangements, what? Do you have arrangements?"

"Me neither"

"Ha ha."

The two single men looked at each other and smiled.

As night fell, Qin Zhibo ordered takeout as usual.

I ordered a large bowl of Lanzhou Ramen with spicy and sour shredded potatoes at my usual Chinese restaurant.

After ordering takeout, Qin Zhibo stood by the window, peeled back the blinds slightly and looked at the street outside.

In the convenience store across the street, a man was sitting on one of the store's snack seats.

Ever since Toru Amuro got off work, this man had been standing on the street opposite, wearing sunglasses and looking at the office from time to time.

It was probably dinner time, so he went to the convenience store opposite and ate while watching.

Qin Zhibo knew that this was the person sent by Kinoshita Tomonori to monitor him.

Previously, Kinoshita Satoshi thought that he had saved his life by reaching a deal with Baron Samedi.

In order to complete this deal, Qin Zhibo must also kill people to provide Baron Samedi's soul.

Kinoshita Satoshi wanted to take advantage of this.

In this regard, Qin Zhibo wanted to stay put and pretend not to know.

When the Sabbath comes, all the Voodoo believers headed by Kinoshita Tomonori will be captured in the Togami Forest.

In the electronic map of the navigator, Qin Zhibo has found the location of the Tou Shen Forest.

The Tougami Forest is located in Gunma County, under the jurisdiction of Yamamura Cao, a policeman who calls himself a "monster hunter".

This week’s Sabbath is the day after Valentine’s Day.

Late at night, Chengshi Hospital.

Haihara Ai, who was sleeping just a second ago, suddenly got up from the bed, put on her slippers, and walked out of the room.

This is not sleepwalking, but conscious action.

As a nocturnal animal, even on days when she doesn't stay up late, Haihara Ai will get up late at night, walk around the laboratory, and check on the condition of the experimental mice before going to sleep.

While wandering around Chengshi Hospital, Haihara Ai noticed that the lights in the kitchen had not been turned off, and the sound of pots and pans clattering could be heard from inside.

He walked over and pushed the door open, only to see Aso Minoru busy in the kitchen.

"You are here."

Hui Yuan Ai walked to the back and asked quietly, which shocked Cheng Shi.

"Ah! Xiao Ai, why are you awake?"

"Did I wake you up?"

Haihara Ai did not answer immediately, but his eyes drifted towards the kitchen countertop, where some brown sticky substance was flowing.

There is a hint of sweetness and a faint smell of paste in the air, this is...

"Are you making chocolate?"

Aso Minoru looked back at the messy kitchen and smiled sheepishly: "Yes, but it didn't go well. I have no experience in making chocolate."

Haiyuan Ai thought for a moment, tomorrow seems to be Valentine's Day, which is one of the consumption traps carefully constructed by chocolate manufacturers.

"Why--"

Haiyuan Ai sighed, rolled up his sleeves, moved a stool and stood next to the operating table.

"Let me help you. It should speed up some production progress."

"Xiao Ai, can you make chocolate?"

Aso was a little surprised. During this period of time spent with Haibara Ai, in addition to knowing that her physical recovery ability was different from ordinary people and that she had a mature personality like an adult, she also discovered that she had some professional medical knowledge.

Occasionally when there are many patients in the hospital, Huihara Ai will make some simple diagnoses.

These diagnoses were later proven to be correct.

A little girl full of secrets.

If Qin Zhibo hadn't told him that there was no need to ask, Cheng Shi would have wanted to ask him face to face, "Who are you?"

"I can't make chocolate"

Hui Yuan Ai shook his head, denying that he had this skill, and then said lightly: "But you can try it out. This thing shouldn't be difficult to make."

"I just melt the chocolate I bought, pour it into a mold to shape it into a new shape, and put it in the refrigerator to solidify again."

Before Haihara Ai finished speaking, he was stunned when he saw the various materials on the operating table.

There are roasted cocoa beans, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, powdered sugar, and grinding machine on the workbench.

This is different from the promised process!

Haibara Ai looked at these complicated tools and glanced at Aso Minoru in confusion, "Are you making handmade chocolate?"

Chengshi was a little embarrassed to be seen with the fruits of her labor during this period, "Yeah, isn't that what chocolate should be like?"

"."

Hui Yuan Ai was silent for a moment and asked: "So, who do you want to give the chocolate to?"

Aso looked a little embarrassed, "He is a very important person to me."

"."

Haiyuan Ai was silent again, and a man's figure appeared in his mind.

"If we continue at this pace, we won't be able to make a finished product by dawn."

"Eh-?" Cheng Shi was surprised.

Haiyuan Ai, who was habitually venomous, looked at Cheng Shi with a faint smile on his lips.

"But I can help you make the chocolate."

"Really!"

Chengshi, who already felt a little powerless, was happy, but then she thought that Haibara Ai would have to go to class tomorrow.

"It doesn't matter. I'm a nocturnal animal and I won't get sleepy."

"And I also want to do my best to express my gratitude."

Haihara Ai made a pun. The person she wanted to thank was not just Dr. Chengshi.

In this way, the two girls began to be busy in the kitchen, and the atmosphere was not harmonious.

At this moment when thousands of houses were sleeping with lights on, Toru Amuro was also not sleeping.

But Toru Amuro didn't stay up late to make chocolates for someone, but he was used to going to bed late.

As the mainstay of Japan's secret police force Zero Section, although his current main task is to undercover the black organization, he is not a full-time undercover.

In addition to undercover tasks, Toru Amuro also needs to handle some other matters assigned by the public security authorities.

You have to disguise your identity during the day and handle official business at night.

Sometimes his subordinates encounter cases that cannot be settled, and Toru Amuro must personally take action to bring criminals to justice.

Then he brushed off his clothes and went away, hiding his merit and fame.

Therefore, staying up late and working overtime is completely normal for Tohru Amuro, while 996 and other things are completely childish for him.

Staying up late today was also a normal part of his life.

Toru Amuro was using the internal public security system to check the information on the case Qin Zhibo mentioned during the day, thinking about going to bed after reading these contents.

At this time, the phone next to the low table suddenly vibrated with an incoming call.

I looked up at the clock on the wall and saw it was already 1:00 midnight.

It's so late, who could it be?

Amuro Toru was confused for a moment, but still picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

A very sexy female voice came from the other side.

"Bourbon, I am Belmode."

Amuro Toru was slightly startled, but replied calmly: "It's you, what's the matter?"

Belmod didn't go around in circles and asked straight to the point: "You haven't forgotten our agreement, have you?"

"How do you say this?" Toru Amuro was puzzled.

Although he might not tell Belmode the truth after investigating the information, he did not give up on investigating the boss’s cronies.

"Hmph," Belmode snorted, "I saw you shopping with the daughter of the Japanese consortium. Are you dating?"

Amuro Toru's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that he was seen by Belmode again?

Could it be that she was right next to him without him noticing?

"How did you know? Are you following me?"

"ha?"

Bermod's confused voice came over the phone, and he replied in a joking tone: "Your incident was photographed and published in the newspaper, and the whole of Japan knew about it."

"You don't know that the consortium's daughter has been a hot topic recently, right?"

When Belmod reminded him, Toru Amuro thought of the paparazzi he had killed. Was there not only one paparazzi in the mall at that time?

"I just happened to be captured in a photo, and the meaning was misinterpreted. As a big star, you should be able to understand my situation, right?"

"But it would be nice if I could really become boyfriend and girlfriend with that wealthy consortium daughter, so I wouldn't have to work hard."

Toru Amuro said the second sentence in a joking tone, and Bermod responded in a joking tone as a warning.

"With your handsome face and abilities, you might really be able to capture that little girl's heart."

"But I want to tell you that with the ability of the organization, a small consortium cannot protect you."

In Bermod's words, the Suzuki Consortium, which is racing across Japan's business world, is described as "small."

"I know this, so your doubts about me are unnecessary."

Toru Amuro did not doubt what Bermod said. It was easy to block open attacks and hard to guard against hidden arrows. It only took a few exquisite assassinations to put the consortium out of reach.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

At this time, Belmod restrained the edge in his words and asked in a charming voice: "Today is Valentine's Day, do you want to receive my chocolate?"

"Forget it, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

Tohru Amuro refused without even thinking.

He could probably guess that if he accepted, the other party would ask for his current address.

"What a pity. I've already prepared some chocolates here, and I plan to give them to a certain man~"

There was tenderness on the phone, but Toru Amuro remained unmoved.

"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

Toot——

Toru Amuro hung up the phone, quickly opened the web page, and searched for the keywords "Suzuki daughter" and "boyfriend".

As expected, Toru Amuro found the photo at a tricky angle. Suzuki Sonoko had her arm around her, and she looked like a boyfriend and girlfriend.

Was this also taken by the paparazzi?

But I have obviously taken away his memory card.

Toru Amuro quickly took out the memory card from his pocket and carefully searched for the photos inside. He found that they were indeed photos taken after the murder, not before.

hateful! Being set up!

Toru Amuro was a little angry because he was manipulated by an unknown person.

But at this moment, Toru Amuro scanned the photos displayed on the computer and suddenly noticed something was wrong.

In the photos secretly taken by the paparazzi at the photo exhibition, there is an inexplicable and strange black shadow behind a man.

The translucent humanoid appearance is exactly the same as the shadows in the two previous "shadow murder" cases.

This person is

That photographer?
