The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Is Kuroba Toichi still alive?

To be honest, Qin Zhibo didn't know either. After all, he didn't know much about Black Feather Pirates. He only knew that he was a genius magician who was famous all over the world twenty years ago.

Qin Zhibo didn't even go out of his way to understand how Black Feather Pirate One died.

Therefore, Kuroba Kaito's idea that "Kuroba Toichi is still alive" is completely his own unfounded imagination.

It's fine if it's just ordinary imagination, but it's best not to have this kind of illusion about the dead being alive.

"Kid, I didn't say that."

Qin Zhibo patted Kuroba Kaito on the shoulder, "The only thing that can be confirmed now is that the painting "Monster Thief Under the Moon" is signed by Pickman. If this person can be found, he will probably know about your father, Kuroba Kaito." Many things to one.”

Kuroba Kaito's eyes relaxed and his shoulders sank a little, "Well..."

In fact, he and Terai Onosuke were also looking for the painter "Pickman" before, but they never got any useful clues.

Kuroba Chikage had never heard of this name, and Terai Kinosuke had never heard of it even though he had known Kuroba Toichi earlier.

Black Feather Pirates has been traveling around the world to learn magic since he was a young man. He has accumulated so many connections that finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But as Qin Zhibo said, this is the only clue left by Black Feather Pirates, and he must do it no matter how difficult it is.

"Master, Mr. Qin, the food is ready, come and have some."

Terai Huangnosuke served some dishes made in the kitchen at the back. They were all simple meals such as French fries and burgers, but they were no problem to fill up the stomach.

Kuroba Kaito looked at the fries on the table and didn't have much appetite.

Qin Zhibo was already starving, so he put the screws in his pocket on the bar and started eating.

Kuroba Kaito picked up the screw and was a little surprised.

"this is?"

"These are the rivets used by the fake Kidd's hang glider, with letters on them." Qin Zhibo explained while eating.

Kuroba Kaito looked carefully and saw the letters "NMI" on it.

"Is that the manufacturer's initials?"

Kaitou Kidd is very famous, and there are many imitators, but most of them are crudely made "Kidds" that don't even have gliders.

But this time Kidd is indeed the most restored in history, and it does not lag behind the equipment used by the real Kidd at the technical level.

"Master."

Terai Kinosuke asked, and Kuroba Kaito handed the rivet to him.

The equipment of the two generations of Kaitou Kid has always been provided by Terai and his unnamed friend, so he knows more about equipment and props than Kuroba Kaito.

After checking the structure of the rivets, Terai Huangnosuke opened his laptop and started searching.

After a while of operation, he made a somewhat excited sound.

"found it!"

Terai Kinosuke turned his computer to the bar. This was the introduction page of a company called New World Corporation, the abbreviation of which was NMI.

New World Corporation (NMI) is the world's top infrastructure materials, facility design and construction company. It also involves the field of electronic technology and has strong technological research and development capabilities.

The company's original headquarters was in the United States. After the new heir took control of the company, it moved its headquarters to Europe and is still engaged in infrastructure and high-tech development.

The current owner of this company is Edward Chandler.

Qin Zhibo was stunned when he saw this name that he had forgotten but now remembered again.

This is exactly the real name that I found out after my first contact with Spider.

Spider's real name is Edward Chandler.

Qin Zhibo swallowed the burger in his mouth and thought about the information he had obtained so far.

Spider has three levels of identity, namely:

The world’s greatest illusionist—Günter von Goldberg II

The world's top killer——Spider

New World Corporation leader - Edward Chandler

The three names correspond to three completely different identities. No wonder even the White Horse Detective has never been able to figure out his details.

If this is Spider's company, it's not difficult to understand why the high imitation Kidd has gliders on his body.

"This is Spider's company. They should have made the glider specifically to deal with you."

Qin Zhibo told Kuroba Kaito and Terai what he knew, and both of them were surprised.

A single killer actually has a huge company operating across continents, and the power of the entire zoo organization is unimaginable.

Kuroba Kaito's original idea was to destroy the Pandora Stone after obtaining it, thus making the dream of the boss behind the organization come to nothing.

But now it seems that this idea is too naive, without considering the consequences of doing so.

Confronting such a behemoth indeed requires a more careful plan.

After eating and drinking, Qin Zhibo discussed the next course of action with Kuroba Kaito.

First, create the illusion that Pandora's Stone has not been found. The songs continued to be sung, the dances continued, and the gems continued to be stolen. Everything was as before.

Secondly, we need to find a way to find the person "Pickman". He is probably the clue figure left by Kuroba Toichi.

Finally, to unite all the forces that can be united, relying solely on the big IP of Kaitou Kidd, Terai, and Qin Zhibo is still too weak.

Regarding people who can be united, Qin Zhibo provided some candidates.

For example, Detective White Horse has been tracking Spider. He is even more interested in Spider than Kaitou Kidd, and he has an official background.

And Koizumi Anko, Pandora's Stone is obviously a magic thing. Dad said that only magic can defeat magic.

Kuroba Kaito: "Which father? Is it Father Terai?"

Terai Huangnosuke looked confused, when did I say such a thing?

Qin Zhibo: "Don't worry about which dad it is, it's dad who said it anyway."

Kuroba Kaito: "."

Speaking of Koizumi Anko, Kuroba Kaito remembered that when he first sent out a notice to steal the "Crimson Tears", Koizumi Anko reminded him intentionally or unintentionally.

"It is a 'Devil's Stone' that brings doom and disaster to all who try to get its hands on it."

Did Koizumi Hongzi know that it was Pandora's Stone from the beginning?

The answer is with me?

The next day, Aso woke up from bed.

There is a soft Simmons mattress under me. Looking around, although it is an unfamiliar environment, it looks like a hotel room. The clock on the wall accurately stops at 9:10.

Why am I here?

Something seemed to have happened last night. I helped Miss Judy get the gems back from the bad guys, and then...

While Cheng Shi was frowning and trying to recall what happened last night, his eyes suddenly saw a torn black and purple dress on the chair beside him, as well as some underwear.

Cheng Shi looked shocked, quickly lowered his head and pulled open his collar to check his body.

Although she was wrapped in a nightgown on the outside, she was basically naked underneath.

Who changed these clothes for me?

Click.

At this time, the door lock of the room rang, and Qin Zhibo walked in.

Seeing Aso Michiru sitting on the bed waking up, Qin Zhibo said hello.

"Good morning."

"Good morning."

Qin Zhibo put some bags from the convenience store on the table, took out rice balls, sandwiches, oden, etc. to eat, and said: "The breakfast supply in the hotel restaurant has ended. I guess you will be very hungry after waking up, so go outside to buy some." Got some food.”

When Qin Zhibo said this, Cheng Shi really felt that his stomach felt unusually empty.

Yesterday's dinner will be messed up, and I won't have a chance to eat afterwards, so I will naturally be hungry.

After placing all the food, Qin Zhibo walked to the window of the room and opened the curtains.

"It's been raining since midnight yesterday. I can't drive my convertible, so I didn't wake you up. Plus you might need a good rest."

"And today seems to be Sunday. Is it okay for your hospital to open later?"

Qin Zhibo tidied the room methodically and explained why he didn't wake up.

But Chengzhi only meant one thing.

"Um, are these the clothes Mr. Qin changed for me?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Qin Zhibo answered simply.

"without"

really.

Cheng Shi lowered his head and raised a wry smile. His eyes were one-third self-deprecating and seven-point inferiority complex.

The fact that Qin Zhibo changed his clothes to this extent showed that he did not regard himself as someone who was inconvenient to change his clothes at all.

Although I may be wishful thinking, if I could, I wouldn't want to be like this.

If you could choose your gender again

Qin Zhibo did not notice the change in Cheng Shi's mood, but recalled the conversation with Judy Hooper just now.

In addition to going to the convenience store to buy food, he also went to see Judy Hooper and explained some things.

Judy Hooper is also a very important part of hiding the existence of Pandora's Stone.

So Qin Zhibo told her again not to tell anyone about the red light emitting from the gem last night, otherwise the bad guys would come to snatch the gem again, and the people of the Thaumatology Group would be in danger again.

But in order not to show any abnormalities, the thaumaturgy troupe had to perform as usual and did not need to do any extra protection for the gems.

As long as the members of the Beast Brotherhood see Judy Hooper's reaction, they will think that this "Crimson Tears" is not the gem they are looking for.

To this, Judy Hooper agreed.

It's a risky move, but for now it's the only way to avoid the Beast Brotherhood's attention.

Hope everything goes well until Halley's Comet returns.

After Chengshi finished breakfast, the two watched TV in the hotel room for a while.

It wasn't until around 10 a.m. that the pouring rain finally stopped, and the gray sky became clearer.

Qin Zhibo drove a convertible and returned to Mihua Town with Cheng Shi.

First, Cheng Shi was sent back to his hospital. Although private hospitals generally had the option of being closed on Sundays, Cheng Shi was more diligent. Nurse Yangu had Sundays off, but he, a doctor, did not take a day off.

Qin Zhibo watched Cheng Shi return to the hospital, looked at his roofless convertible again, and sighed inwardly when Toru Amuro would come back.

The last time I told him that I wanted to change my car and modify the new car, it was all Qin Zhibo's sincerity.

It's a pity that Toru Amuro disappeared again after solving the bomb case. He probably continued to look for Shuichi Akai, right?

The last time I discussed "re-employment" with Akai Shuichi, I forgot to tell him about it.

However, with the level of the FBI, he should have been able to detect that a Japanese police officer was tracking him.

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to leave, Cheng Shi suddenly ran out of the hospital.

"Mr. Qin, wait a minute!"

He changed into normal clothes and ran out anxiously, "Dr. Ali left a message on the phone saying that Xiao Ai is sick and the situation is serious. He asked me to go to his house to check on him if I have time."

Ever since Dr. Ali went to the United States and left Haibara Ai under Narumi's care for a period of time, he has attached great importance to Haibara Ai, which can be regarded as making up for his feelings for his biological sister.

"Then I'll drive you to Dr. Ali."

"Well, wait a minute, I'll go back and get some things."

Chengshi went back to rummage for a while, and when he came out again he had a medicine box in his hand and got into Qin Zhibo's car.

Chengshi Hospital is not far from Dr. A Li's home. It only takes two minutes by car. The two of them soon arrived at the door of Dr. A Li's house.

But after ringing the doorbell several times, no one at home answered.

"not at home?"

Qin Zhibo reasoned for a while and guessed: "Should he go to another hospital? After all, children can't be delayed when they are sick. I'll call and ask."

Qin Zhibo dialed Dr. A Li's number, but no one answered.

"It's strange, no one answered the phone?"

"Are you already in the hospital?"

Qin Zhibo thought for a while and felt that Conan should be indispensable at this time, so he took out Mouri Kogoro's business card and called the number on it.

Fortunately, Kogoro Mouri's phone number was able to get through, and after asking, he found out that Conan had gone to Dr. Agasa's house to play early in the morning.

This means that Conan, Dr. Agasa and Haibara Ai should be together.

And since Conan is following him and Dr. Ari's calls are not answered, the probability of something happening is very high.

Qin Zhibo made another call to Officer Mu Mu, and sure enough he got the most accurate information.

"You said Conan and Dr. Agasa, they are indeed here with me."

"Really? How did you know there was a murder?"

"The address is the underground parking lot of Toto Department Store in Cupido Town. Brother, are you coming over?"

Using Ke Xue's method to obtain the exact address, Qin Zhibo called Aso Shimi into the car and went straight to Abedo Town.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Toto Department Store in Cupido Town.

At the exit of the underground parking lot, police have set up a cordon and no vehicles are allowed to enter or exit.

Qin Zhibo successfully led Chengshi into the underground parking lot and went straight to the murder scene by scanning his face.

Next to Mu Mu, Qin Zhibo saw the familiar three-choice pattern. Three people who were suspects at first glance were being questioned by Mu Mu.

And Conan was standing next to him, holding his little head and thinking about something intently.

Seeing Conan, Aso Minoru rushed forward, quickly bent down and asked: "Conan, where is Xiao Ai now?"

Conan, who was thinking about the case, was shocked when he saw Aso. They were still looking for a doctor all over the world. Why did the doctor come here on his own initiative?

Only after seeing Qin Zhibo next to him did he understand what was going on.

This man was so timely, Haiyuan just needed treatment.

"Haihara should be staying in the car with Dr. Agasa."

Conan took Chengshi to find Dr. Ali's little yellow car, stretched his head in front of the car window, only to find that the person was missing.

Only Dr. Agasa's phone sat alone on the seat.

"what happened?"

"Why are Haiyuan and the doctor missing?"

The shocked Conan's pupils dilated. He had clearly told Dr. A Li not to walk around and attract attention before he solved the case.

I discovered some people were following them a while ago. What if those people are from the organization?

At the same time, Qin Zhibo, who was preparing to learn about the case from Officer Mu Mu, suddenly spotted a very unique car in the underground parking lot.

That's a Porsche 356A.
