The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 767: Ghost in the Metropolitan Police Department?

Everyone looked around the toilet. There was no newspaper in the toilet.

Sato held his chin up and continued his analysis.

"That means that after you left Takagi, someone else entered the toilet."

"This person is the murderer of Chizo Ogura. The newspaper is also a tool used to prevent blood from splattering on himself."

"Yes." Qin Zhibo nodded, confirming Sato's idea, "The murderer is still on the train. If there are witnesses, we will be closer to the truth."

Takagi watched the rigorous reasoning between Qin Zhibo and Sato, and the scene in the toilet just now flashed through his mind again.

That's right. The person who solved the "Chou Silang case" that had puzzled the police and Officer Sato for 18 years at a glance was Mr. Qin.

Although Qin did not take advantage of others' danger, perhaps from that time on, Officer Sato had already made a secret promise.

As he thought about it, the image of Qin Zhibo and Sato together emerged in Takagi's mind.

Just when Takagi was thinking about it, Sato slapped Takagi on the shoulder, breaking his fantasy.

"Takagi! What are you thinking about?"

"Uh?" Takagi was stunned.

Sato immediately ordered: "Ah what? Come with me to find witnesses immediately. If you find clues before the train arrives at Tokyo Station, maybe your punishment can be reduced!"

"oh!"

Takagi came to his senses. Although it was destined to rain all night when the house leaked, he should at least handle the current case well.

Just when Takagi and Sato were about to find witnesses, Conan stopped them.

"Officer Sato, actually I saw it."

Sato immediately turned around in surprise, "Conan, did you see someone entering the toilet?"

Conan shook his head, "That's not true, but I saw someone passing by Officer Takagi after Officer Sato left~"

Looking at Conan's harmless little face, Sato thought for a moment and understood the meaning.

"yes!"

"The suspect asked to enter the toilet when the train entered the tunnel. He must have received the message from the murderer."

"Conan, do you remember what people look like?"

Conan nodded again with a cute expression.

"Um!"

Under the identification of "visual surveillance" Conan, the three passengers were quickly pulled out from the car at the back.

The first man is tall, speaks loudly, and has a slightly fierce face.

The second man was bloated, sweating profusely, and had a mediocre face.

The third man was thin, with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, and a slightly timid face.

They never expected that just because they took one more look in the crowd, they would be called for questioning by the police.

After explaining that someone was killed in the toilet and that the three of them might have committed the crime, the three of them explained the reasons why they passed by the aisle in turn.

Slightly fierce man: "I just suddenly felt that there was some noise in the carriage, which affected me from listening to the horse racing broadcast, so I moved to the rear carriage."

Man with weak sweat: "When I was buying coffee from the vending machine, I heard the person in front said there was a bomb, so I moved to the back and sat down."

A slightly timid man: "Me too."

The three people's reasons are all very good, and there is nothing wrong with them.

At this time, Qin Zhibo stood up and said, "Since the three of them didn't say anything when they passed the suspect, they must have taken something with some instruction, right?"

"For example, newspapers"

After Qin Zhibo's reminder, Sato also remembered the key prop of newspapers.

The murderer used a newspaper when he committed the murder, so he must have had a newspaper with him before.

The three of them looked at me and me at you. In order to avoid being too suspicious, they quickly revealed that the others were also holding newspapers at the time.

The result was that everyone had a newspaper, and the man with the weak sweat brought an extra can of coffee.

The case has entered the familiar stage of choosing one of three.

Under Sato's order, the three of them each took their own newspapers from their seats.

Qin Zhibo glanced at it and saw a bright investigation point in the newspaper.

【Survey√】

[The huge W can easily be associated with other meanings]

This newspaper came from the hand of a cowardly man. A simple light instantly revealed the identity of the murderer.

According to the reasoning just now, he first used a fake bomb to attract a policeman, and this was to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Then he took a newspaper to guide the suspect to the toilet, and used the newspaper to prevent blood from splattering on himself.

Now he also has a newspaper, indicating that he has two newspapers in total.

The bloody newspaper was the most direct evidence of guilt and must have been disposed of by him.

The windows of Shinkansen trains cannot be opened, and there are smoke alarms on the trains. If you want to dispose of newspapers, you have to flush them down the toilet.

The sewer of this kind of train is connected to the toilet, and a bloody newspaper can still be found.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo suddenly pointed to the newspaper and said: "Everyone, please take a look at the headline on this newspaper. Isn't the big letter "W" easily reminiscent of something?"

"Coupled with the prank bomb in the toilet before, it is easy to further form a psychological suggestion, and the content of the suggestion is 'toilet'."

Everyone followed Qin Zhibo's finger and saw the headline of the news above: "W Cup hero, Ray Katis was interrogated by the police!"

The letter W is very obvious in titles in kanji and katakana.

"Wait a minute! This is just a coincidence, okay?"

"How can you suspect us based on just one letter?"

The cowardly man still wanted to quibble, but Qin Zhibo turned to Sato and said: "From now on, don't let passengers use the toilet in this carriage."

"Because the bloody newspaper could only have been flushed down the toilet."

"The dirt from Shinkansen trains will be concentrated in the toilet bowl, and the mixture in the toilet bowl is in a fluid state. The newspaper will not sink, and you can still find fingerprints on it when you take it out."

"Mr. Akashi, I don't think you touched that newspaper with gloves on the whole time, right?"

The timid man's eyes widened and he looked surprised.

Of course he knew that the newspaper would have his fingerprints on it. If the police found it, he would have no excuse.

The body was in a stalemate for two seconds, and the slightly timid man turned around and wanted to run away.

Qin Zhibo wanted to take action, but the pain in his abdomen made him stop using violent movements.

Although Conan next to him was a little slow in solving the case, his mobility was not weak.

He bent down and turned on the switch of Foot Lijian. He was about to kick out the coffee can on the ground and activate his fighting skill (football), but was pulled back by Qin Zhibo.

Conan looked back at Qin Zhibo in confusion.

Qin Zhibo shook his head, and the meaning in his eyes was: You have strong feet, don't kick the prisoner.

Um?

Conan was a little surprised and still didn't understand what Qin Zhibo meant.

At this time, Takagi Wataru had already picked up the coffee can on the ground and threw a career-defining ball at the back of the timid man's head.

The cafe drew an elegant arc in the air and accurately hit the timid man on the back of the head.

state--

After a crisp yet dull sound, the timid man fell to the ground.

As Sato rushed forward to handcuff the cowardly man who fell, a systematic task completion prompt appeared in Qin Zhibo's field of vision.

[Congratulations on completing the side mission]

[Task rating: C++]

[Acquire 500 general skill proficiency]

[Get 160 social credits]

[Rating reward: 200 general skill proficiency]

With the infusion of task rewards, Qin Zhibo's social credit exceeded the 8,000 mark, reaching 8,110.

The higher the social credit, the more famous you are.

But for a detective who has a lot of covert operations, being too famous is inconvenient.

There is an old saying in China: People are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong.

But this is a reward for completing the mission and cannot be refused.

In addition to social credit, general skill proficiency has also been accumulated to 7920, and the prop [Magic Flute] priced at 7777 can be purchased.

But the occasion is obviously not suitable now, so we have to wait until we get back to the office.

The Shinkansen train slowly enters Tokyo Station.

Officer Megure and others who were on standby at Tokyo Station arrested the murderer and took him back to the Metropolitan Police Department for interrogation.

As for Sato and Takagi, as punishment for their dereliction of duty, they were required to supervise the dismantling of train toilets on site and find bloody newspapers among the excrement.

"Officer Sato, I am the one who got you punished this time, so I'd better go find the evidence myself!"

As a man, Takagi bravely took on the important task of "digging out manure".

Sato didn't refuse. Although she was good at catching criminals, this was a biological rejection that was beyond the control of Lao Ba.

"Then leave it to you, Takagi!"

After Yagi left, Sato breathed a sigh of relief and walked alone to the vending machine at the station to buy a can of drink to quench his thirst.

His eyes swept over the dazzling array of drinks. Sato had just chosen the drink he wanted to drink, but a hand beat him to it.

His finger pressed the button under the can of coffee, which was the choice Sato had in mind.

Sato turned around and saw that the owner of the palm was Qin Zhibo.

Qin Zhibo quietly took out the coffee from the exit below and handed it to Sato.

Sato took the can of coffee with a look of disbelief on his face, "How did you know I wanted to drink this?"

Qin Zhibo changed hands and chose a bottle of oolong tea for himself, and explained calmly: "Just like my reasoning on the train just now, the impression of something not long ago can easily have psychological implications for subsequent judgments."

"On the train just now, didn't you just happen to see one of the three suspects drinking this kind of canned coffee?"

"And Officer Takagi also used that coffee can to knock down the prisoner. I think you should still have an impression of this."

When Qin Zhibo said this, Sato realized that his subconscious choice was the result of this influence.

This man could easily see through subconscious behaviors that he was not even aware of.

This man is indeed not simple.

Qin Zhibo opened the cap of the bottle of oolong tea and took a sip.

The less fragrant tea flavor rushed into the throat. Although it was called oolong tea, it was definitely far inferior to serious tea. It was just a thirst-quenching drink.

Sato next to him raised his head slightly and stared at Qin Zhibo, holding the coffee can slightly tightly with his slender fingers.

"By the way, Mr. Qin."

"You just heard there was a bomb in the car and came over without hesitation."

"Can you defuse bombs?"

Qin Zhibo picked up the oolong tea and took another sip, and replied in a profound tone.

"Yes or no, it's all in between."

Sato Miwako: "?"

Between the two, the most difficult thing is - Mencius riding Buridan's donkey

Such an ambiguous answer made Sato unable to help but think.

What does it mean?

Will it or won't it?

In fact, Qin Zhibo didn't mean to be the old Riddler, but this was the correct answer.

It doesn’t matter if you know how to use it, or if you don’t know how to use it, it’s just the difference between buying a special skill (blasting) or not.

Qin Zhibo screwed on the cap of the oolong tea bottle and asked Sato, "What about Officer Sato?"

"If there really is a bomb inside, what is Officer Sato going to do?"

"Are you confident you can dismantle it?"

This question silenced Sato.

Although she had a painful experience, she was still powerless against slightly more complex bombs.

But even so, she decided to carry on someone's legacy.

"I will do whatever it takes to keep our citizens safe."

Many people have said such high-sounding words.

But Qin Zhibo saw determination in Sato's eyes.

Unless Sato has at least level 5 acting skills, he won't be able to develop such sincere and sincere eyes.

"It can be seen that your ideas are genuine."

Qin Zhibo smiled briefly and made a simple comment.

This made Sato stunned for a moment, and then a trace of blush appeared on his cheeks.

But Qin Zhibo suddenly changed the topic and said seriously: "The criminal who was transferred from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to Gunma County a few days ago, the police did not announce his transfer time and path, right?"

Sato was stunned for a moment, wondering why Qin Zhibo suddenly changed the topic.

But she still replied: "Well, there is no obligation to announce this kind of thing to the public, right?"

Qin Zhibo did not comment and continued to ask: "What about the police? How many people know about this?"

Sato thought for a moment, "If it's a police officer, there should be a lot of people who know about it, right?"

"After all, it involves work coordination with Gunma, and the escort of suspects needs to be reported to higher levels."

Qin Zhibo nodded, "What about this transshipment? How many people know about it?"

This time, Sato, who already had a standard answer in mind, answered without hesitation, "As long as it involves escorting suspects, the procedures are similar and required."

Sato's words stopped suddenly, and his expression was very shocked, even a little scary.

The two incidents involving escorting suspects were related to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Is there a mole in the Metropolitan Police Department? ?

"You mean!"

Just as Sato was about to say it, Qin Zhibo had already made a hissing gesture and stopped his slightly open lips.

"Officer Sato, I didn't say anything."

"Take care of each other."

Qin Zhibo turned and left, leaving Sato standing there with a look of disbelief on his face.

Qin Zhibo walked out of Tokyo Station holding the unfinished oolong tea.

In fact, after realizing that this was another prisoner who was assassinated while being escorted, Qin Zhibo became suspicious of the inside of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Generally speaking, the custody time of prisoners is confidential, especially for prisoners such as Kinoshita Tomonori and Ogura Chizo.

One is the leader of a pagan organization, and the other is a trafficker. These are not the kind of criminals who fight alone.

Although the existence of the inner ghost cannot be completely confirmed for the time being, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

Therefore, Qin Zhibo chose to hint this matter to Sato Miwako.

Whether it is from her well-informed background, her firm belief and excellent personal abilities, she is the police officer most suitable to investigate the matter from the inside.
