The Grammatical Investigator in Conan
Chapter 798 Preparations before the “Decisive Battle”
The cold wind was blowing, and when I suddenly looked back, I saw the woman in the dimly lit place.
As soon as I got rid of the trouble, I calmly lit a cigarette and walked out of the phone booth, I saw two familiar faces.
One is a primary school student who was encountered in the bus hijacking incident.
Akai Shuichi still remembers this elementary school student wearing glasses, aiming his watch at a bus robber, and a needle seemed to be shot out of it, and the robber immediately passed out, as if it was an anesthesia needle or something.
This is a bit like some of Bond's high-tech props in the movie 007.
Of course, what is in the movie is art after all, and reality is difficult to achieve.
After all, even the real FBI does not have such useful props, but this elementary school student does. His background must not be simple.
In addition, Akai Shuichi was also impressed by the unyielding eyes of this elementary school student when facing the gangsters.
Although another face also appeared on the bus that time, the two had a longer relationship.
Seeing the tears in the corners of the horned girl's eyes, Akai Shuichi pictured another woman crying in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Why are you crying again?"
"Why are you always crying?"
When Mao Lilan heard this, she felt a little underestimated. She quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears and replied angrily: "Can't I cry?"
Akai Shuichi was startled when he saw Mao Lilan trying to be strong, and the corners of his mouth holding the cigarette in his mouth raised slightly.
"Neither"
"I just suddenly thought of a woman who looks very similar to you. She pretends to be calm on the surface, but she is crying behind her back."
"What a stupid woman."
After saying that, Akai Shuichi calmly put his hands in his pockets and walked past Mao Lilan and Conan.
Stupid woman?
Mao Lilan's cheeks were slightly red. She didn't understand why she had to be taught a lesson by a man she had only met a few times.
Conan raised his head and watched the change in Mao Lilan's expression. It was a cold day, and for some reason he felt a green light on his head. He quickly asked: "Sister Xiaolan, do you know that person just now?"
"Eh?" Mao Lilan came back to her senses and was about to answer Conan's question when another figure ran over panting on the falling snow.
Mao Lilan and Conan took a closer look and were both a little surprised.
"Mr. Amuro! Are you here to pick up Mr. Qin?"
Mao Lilan didn't know that Toru Amuro had asked Qin Zhibo for a week's leave, and thought that Toru Amuro, as an assistant, was here to pick up Qin Zhibo.
Amuro Toru was wearing a white denim jacket and sweatshirt, which matched the snowy sky.
He looked anxious, and regardless of Mao Lilan's question, he asked directly: "Xiaolan, did you just see a tall man wearing a black knitted hat passing by here?"
Hearing Toru Amuro's question, Mao Lilan was stunned and hesitated, so she did not answer immediately.
But the undisguised eyes had betrayed her, and the next second, Toru Amuro saw the answer from her wandering eyes.
So, Toru Amuro, who got the answer, hurriedly chased in the direction where Mao Lilan's pupils were subconsciously aiming, without even saying goodbye.
When Tohru Amuro ran away, Conan asked Mao Lilan in confusion, "Sister Xiaolan, why didn't you tell Mr. Amuro the whereabouts of that person?"
Mao Lilan was also a little stunned. Logically speaking, she should help Toru Amuro, who is Qin Zhibo's assistant.
But just now, my brain subconsciously felt that this was not good, so I chose to remain silent.
Facing Conan's inquiry, Mao Lilan told how he met Akai Shuichi.
The first meeting between Mao Lilan and Akai Shuichi was during last year's trip to New York, before the abandoned building encountered the Road Murderer.
Kudo Shinichi went to help Mao Lilan find the limited edition Sharon girl's handkerchief that was accidentally lost. Mao Lilan was waiting there and met Akai Shuichi who came to persuade her to leave.
At that time, Mao Lilan was still frightened by Akai Shuichi's waist-length hair and strong aura, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Akai Shuichi's FBI partner came over to report the situation, which indirectly resolved the misunderstanding.
However, Mao Lilan also learned the identity of Akai Shuichi, a federal investigator.
It’s just that a year has passed since this episode. Although Mao Lilan still has an impression of Akai Shuichi’s face, she can’t vaguely remember Akai Shuichi’s identity.
It wasn't until the dream in New York not long ago that I kept reincarnating in a dream that seemed to be dominated, and then I recalled that scene again.
"So I think, as an FBI, he may have some mission in Japan."
"If Mr. Amuro finds him, it might cause some unnecessary trouble?"
Mao Lilan was also a little ambiguous in her heart, but she just felt that it was not good for detectives to interfere with the police's actions without authorization.
Whether it is the Japanese police or the American police, they should maintain fair order.
But after thinking about it, Mao Lilan still felt that there was something wrong with doing this.
Since Toru Amuro is Qin Zhibo's assistant, it is very likely that Amuro's behavior was also instructed by Qin Zhibo.
It's possible that criminals hired detectives to thwart the FBI's operations.
Mao Lilan thought of the commissions her father had encountered before, and criminals often used Mao Li Kogoro as a gunman.
Next time we meet, I’d better explain this matter clearly to Mr. Qin.
Making up her mind to pay attention, Mao Lilan continued to hold Conan's little hand and walked towards home.
As Conan walked, he thought seriously about the information he had just gained.
Shuichi Akai is FBI?
Conan recalled the bus incident. Haibara Ai said that there was a "smell of alcohol" on the bus that frightened her.
For this reason, Conan used Kudo Shinichi's identity afterwards to obtain the passenger list of the bus hijacking incident from Megure and check the identities of everyone one by one.
In the end, only Shuichi Akai's identity was the most suspicious. He had neither a professional resume nor a detailed address, just like a person who appeared out of thin air.
Taken together, the person on the bus who was most likely to make Haibara Ai detect the "smell of alcohol" was actually Shuichi Akai.
Akai Shuichi, could his identity be...
He returned to the office with Mao Lilan, and while Qingmei went to the kitchen to prepare ingredients, Conan left a note and quickly slipped out of the office.
As he ran towards Dr. A Li's house, he thought about what just happened.
In fact, one way to confirm whether Shuichi Akai is an FBI agent is to ask Qin Zhibo directly.
Qin Zhibo is a former FBI investigator, this is something Conan can be sure of.
After Qin Zhibo returned from the United States, Conan learned about this incident on the phone with Yukiko.
In fact, when the couple came back to visit Conan for the first time after getting smaller, Kudo Yusaku recognized Qin Zhibo as Vince Qin, the former part-time shooting coach and FBI investigator.
It's just that Kudo Yusaku felt that Qin might be performing some mission in Japan, so he didn't reveal his identity.
Later, even though Conan was told that the shooting range in Hawaii ten years ago was an opportunity for the two families to meet, they did not mention Qin Zhibo's job.
Later, Qin Zhibo went to the United States and met Kudo and his wife, and learned from the interaction that Qin Zhibo had resigned from the FBI and had not performed any tasks in Japan.
Only then did Kudo Yukiko tell Conan about Qin Zhibo’s former FBI identity.
When he learned this, Conan's brain was very shocked.
But then I thought about it, my background is Hawaiian in the United States, and I am a top student who graduated from Miskatonic University.
It's a pity that he has the marksmanship that can serve as a shooting range instructor, terrible observation and reasoning skills, and very effective kung fu without any martial ethics. It's a pity that this attribute is not suitable for the FBI.
In other words, only FBI work can hone these abilities.
Therefore, Qin Zhibo is a former FBI, which is unexpected but reasonable.
If you want to find out the identity of an FBI, asking another FBI is the most direct and effective way.
Although Qin Zhibo is a former FBI, Conan knows that former colleagues are usually given face, just like Memu usually gives face to Mouri Kogoro.
Just search Akai Shuichi's name in the FBI system to find out whether he is a member of the black organization.
But how to say it to Qin Zhibo?
If Qin Zhibo is asked to help investigate, Qin Zhibo will inevitably be involved in the whirlpool of the black organization.
Conan has long known about Qin Zhibo's attitude.
Although Qin Zhibo had already recognized the current "Conan" as "Kudo Shinichi" from their encounter in Hawaii ten years ago, Qin Zhibo never took the initiative to ask about the specific reasons for his shrinkage.
One possibility is that you want to protect yourself wisely and don't want to meddle in other people's business.
Another possibility is to let Conan take the initiative to explain the situation and seek help.
But no matter which way, Conan felt that he could not bring Qin Zhibo into his group when it was not necessary.
As Dr. A Li said, the more people know about the black organization, the more dangerous it is for everyone who knows about it.
Conan: "."
There is no time to worry about Shuichi Akai now. We should first find out who Taku Itakura is trading with.
If the opponent is really a black organization, the winner might be decided tonight!
From the Fifth Chome Mori Office to Dr. Agasa's house in the Second Chome, Conan patted the snowflakes off his body.
"Shinichi! You came just in time. The invention I have been researching for a long time has been completed~"
"In addition, I also helped you make a backup tracking glasses, so you can say goodbye to electricity anxiety from now on!"
Dr. A Li held the new glasses in his hand, his face full of pride.
But Conan's mind is now occupied with the evening's transactions, and he has no intention of asking about the latest inventions. He just wants to quickly discuss countermeasures with Dr. A Li.
"By the way, why didn't you see Haiyuan?"
"Xiao Ai should be taking a shower now."
Conan's mouth twisted and he revealed an inappropriate smile, "Taking a shower. That would be really nice."
After hearing Conan's words of tiger and wolf, Dr. Ali quickly and sternly admonished: "Shinichi, you don't mean to peek at Xiao Ai taking a bath, do you?"
ah?
Conan showed his half-moon eyes, feeling very helpless.
Come on, how could I be interested in a child's body like that?
After arriving in the basement of the doctor's house, Conan told Dr. Agasa his true purpose of coming here.
Dr. Ali was also shocked when he recounted his experiences during the day.
"What kind of software has to be abandoned for the benefit of all mankind?"
As a technology nerd, Dr. Ari is very interested in the software mentioned in Itakura Taku's diary.
Conan, on the other hand, was more concerned about the regular contact between the other party and Taku Itakura in the evening, and quickly asked Dr. Ali to get dressed, as he was going to do something big tonight.
"As long as we rush to Itakura Taku's villa immediately, get the software he designed, and then use the computer in the villa to send a letter and convince the other party to trade before tomorrow, we should be able to catch them on the spot."
After hearing Conan's plan, Dr. Ali frowned, vaguely feeling that this plan was a bit reckless.
If the other party is squatting in Itakura Zhuo's villa, wouldn't he have fallen into a trap?
And even if you deceive the other party, you may not be sure to catch them.
The most important thing is that there is currently no definite evidence that the people who were in contact with Itakura Taku are black organizations.
But looking at the iconic smile on Conan's face as he faced the challenge, Dr. Ali also understood that Conan had endured it for so long and felt unspeakable guilt in his heart.
After all, they are neighbor children who have watched him grow up since childhood. The relationship between the two can be said to be that of father and son.
Therefore, Dr. Ali decided to sacrifice his life to accompany Junzi.
"Then do you know where Taku Itakura's villa is?"
"Well, the three clients had already revealed the address of Itakura Taku's villa when they were at my uncle's office during the day."
Conan groaned, "It's in Gunma County."
After explaining the destination, Conan was about to set off when Dr. Ari quickly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, Shinichi."
"Huh?" Conan stood still.
Dr. Ali turned around and took out a belt from the cardboard box in the corner and began to introduce it.
"This thing is called the 'shooting belt anytime, anywhere' and it's my latest invention."
"At first glance, this looks like an ordinary belt."
At this point, Conan looked at the exaggerated shape of the belt, which looked a bit like Kamen Rider's belt, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
can not tell
Dr. Ali reached out and pressed the button above the metal launch port of his belt, and a football ejected from it and landed on the ground.
Seeing this artifact, Conan, who always draws inferences from one instance, immediately thought of its purpose.
"Great! With this, no matter how many gangsters there are, we can catch them all in one go!"
In Conan's mind, he seemed to have seen two footballs wedged in the faces of Gin and Vodka.
But only 10 seconds after the football hit the ground, it shriveled into nothing but a piece of soft rubber.
Dr. A Li explained in detail how to use this thing. As long as the football leaves the belt for 10 seconds, it will deflate.
But the advantage is that it can identify the gas filling it, and it can expand to the maximum size of a hot air balloon.
"Oh? This is quite convenient!"
Conan looked excited. Although he didn't quite understand Dr. Ali's technical principles, it sounded cool.
Just turning his head and thinking about it, Conan discovered Hua Dian.
"By the way, didn't Qin Zhibo ask you to help study that stone?"
"Did you invent this belt during this time?"
Having said this, Dr. Ali scratched his head in embarrassment, "Actually, I don't have the equipment to analyze the ore here. I need to purchase it from abroad."
"It takes at least a week to ship from overseas to Japan."
"Oh" Conan nodded. Studying stones doesn't sound like something that is urgent anyway, so you can do it slowly.
"Doctor, without further ado, let's set off now!"
The entrance to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
"Ah sneeze!"
After walking from a warm environment into the bleak cold wind, Qin Zhibo's nose was not used to it for a while and he sneezed.
I just finished writing the transcript, plus watching the interrogation of the prisoner, it took a full hour and a half.
Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about which means of transportation to take back to the office, the phone in his arms suddenly rang.
Ding--
There was a vibration in my left pocket, the sound of a new phone ringing.
This is a call from the Black Organization.
