Chapter 28
To find out,
when Toru Amuro finished his work at the Poirot Cafe and arrived in Yokohama to meet with Mihara Ryogo, he heard the other party say that a detective from Yoneka Town was at Mihara's house. From what he had said, Toru Amuro could guess that it was Mouri Kogoro and his group.
But he didn't expect that Mao Lilan would stay in the courtyard with Ida Liuyi.
At this time, Mihara Ryougo did not know that Mr. Mihara was dead, but he had the same idea as Toru Amuro when he saw the police entering and leaving Mihara's house.
Mihara Ryogo looked at each other and Amuro Toru entered the scene of the crime. Only then did Mihara Ryogo learn that Mr. Mihara had passed away.
Immediately, Mihara Ryogo's voice spread from inside the house to outside, and even Idarui and the others who were staying in the courtyard could hear it.
"It turns out that the private detective in Yoneka Town whom Mr. Ryogo found is Mr. Amuro." Maori Ran took Idarui's hand and said to Toru Amuro, who was still watching and whose mood was not very high.
Toru Amuro nodded without refuting.
However, his focus was entirely on Idarui, who had the same hair color as him. Not only now, but even this morning when he was at Café Poirot, he realized that Edogawa Conan’s words must have been intentional.
But Toru Amuro had no evidence, so he could only make baseless assumptions.
"But having said that, why did Mr. Ryogo choose to entrust Mr. Amuro all the way?" Mao Lilan sighed, "I always feel that Mr. Amuro is so tired and busy, not only as a waiter in Poirot, but also Become a private detective again..."
Mao Lilan didn't finish. She always felt that Amuro Toru was very busy with both jobs, and the rest of the time, Mao Lilan could always see Amuro Toru taking leave and busy with other things. .
She was wondering if Toru Amuro would really have any private time?
"Ah, I'm used to it, so there's no problem." Toru Amuro said as if he was pretending to be relaxed. "As for the reason why Mr. Mihara invited me... it's because he received a threatening letter."
Itariu Yui and Mourilan both said at the same time because of Amuro Toru's words: "Huh?!"
Because Liui only heard that the reason why Mihara Chika entrusted Mouri Kogoro this time was also because of the threatening letter, she didn't know about it. What is the content of the threatening letter?
Mao Lilan knew the general reason, but when he heard that the reason Mihara Ryogo entrusted Tohru Amuro was also because someone sent Mihara Ryogo a threatening letter, Mao Lilan did not expect this.
"Officer, what did you say?! My eldest brother is missing?! How is this possible?!" Mihara Ryogo's voice came from inside the house, and he said in an unbelievable tone. "I saw him in the living room this afternoon? Why is he missing? Maybe he is just busy with something and hasn't come back yet? Right, Chika."
When Toru Amuro was looking at Idarui who didn't know why, he originally He wanted to get closer to the other party and confirm his thoughts, but Mihara Ryogo's voice stopped Amuro Tohru's move.
"We have been unable to contact Mr. Mihara Tsubasa's communications and traces so far. Even the people who knew him, as far as we know reliably, don't know where Mr. Mihara Tsubasa went during this time." Officer Minura followed Mihara. Ryogo said, but Officer Minura's subsequent guess was questioned by Moori Kogoro.
In addition, nearly an hour and a half has passed since Idarui and the others last saw Mihara Tsubasa and parted ways. Everyone is guessing where Mihara Tsubasa will go.
At this time, Maori Kogoro made a bold guess.
His face was full of seriousness, and Mouri Kogoro felt that maybe his idea was correct: "Maybe the person who killed Mr. Mihara was Mr. Mihara Tsubasa who can't be contacted now."
"This is not impossible, but what we need It is relevant and decisive evidence." Officer Minura did not deny Mouri Kogoro's idea, but he needed clues that could prove that Mihara Tsubasa was responsible or a chain of evidence that could prove that the murderer was someone else.
....
etc!
Daterui and Edogawa Conan both thought of one thing at the same time. This was also what Maori Lan suddenly thought of after witnessing that conversation.
Just when the case was at a loss, Daterui and Edogawa Conan said in unison: "Maybe we can find someone from the Armed Detective Agency?"
"Oh?" Toru Amuro didn't know that he was coming. What happened before arriving at Mihara's house, when he saw Daterui and Edogawa Conan having the same reaction, the police officer first asked them why they mentioned the so-called detective agency.
After Mao Lilan's explanation, those who were not present at the time roughly understood what the two children said. Because of this, Mouri Kogoro, who had obtained the consent of Mihara Chika, also told the police officer the purpose of his visit, as well as the current situation of the Mihara family.
It turns out that the Mihara family also has a struggle secretly.
Satoshi Ono sided with Chika Mihara. Chika Mihara and Ryogo Mihara both received several anonymous threatening letters, but they didn't know who did it and whether Tsubasa Mihara also received the same. letter.
"I will contact the people at the detective agency, don't worry." After collecting the evidence present and the alibi of Mihara's family, Officer Miura could only let everyone leave first. The crime scene has been sealed off, and no one can Can't get any closer.
As for the detective agency, Officer Minura seems to have other plans.
"Hey, Officer Minura, can I go to that detective agency with you."
Daterui didn't know what Edogawa Conan was thinking. She said it when she saw Edogawa Conan coming to the police officer. After hearing these words, Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri, who are the temporary guardians of Edogawa Conan, will certainly not let him interfere with the work of the police officer, so Mouri Ran took Edogawa Conan's arm and apologized to Officer Minura And told Conan not to be willful.
"Children can't hinder our work." Officer Minura said. He looked at everyone present and added his own words, "Although Mr. Mori is also a detective, something like this happened, so I would like to trouble you to stay at Mihara's house today. You can't go either, and the same goes for children until the truth comes out."
Edogawa Conan felt that he had been called out. He was still thinking that he should find other ways to find out. At this time, Toru Amuro proposed.
"Why don't I take Conan with me, Officer Minura." Toru Amuro said.
Officer Minura looked at Toru Amuro who took the initiative to speak. He actually did not support his words and did not know the origin of Toru Amuro, so Officer Miura did not agree with what he said.
However, Toru Amuro told the other party one by one what he thought and why he could help.
Idarui heard Toru Amuro say: "Well, I am a private detective invited by Mr. Mihara, and I was on the way to Yokohama when Mr. Mihara died. And this was the first time I met everyone in the Mihara family. I didn't The reason to attack Mr. Mihara, the motive and the time of committing the crime, and this Edogawa Conan, he is a child, and he has no motive and ability to attack Mr. Mihara, and based on the time I spent with this child, I can prove his mind "Everyone is fine. I think we can help Officer Miura."
"...." Officer Miura thought of his previous dealings with Edogawa Ranpo from the detective agency, and he was still hesitant. He looked at the man. Edogawa Conan, who could scratch his head and smile, and Amuro Toru, who proved Edogawa Conan, chose to believe it.
After all, if these two people are going to mess around, the person they are about to meet is not an ordinary person to be trifled with.
Officer Jiura said: "You can't mess around, I will watch your every move."
"But Conan..." Mao Lilan was still worried. Although Toru Amuro was following him, according to the rules of Edo every time there is a case, Mao Lilan will be worried about Conan Chuan's behavior.
However, when Edogawa Conan repeatedly assured and Amuro Toru told Maori Ran that she would protect Conan's safety and pay attention to the operation, although she looked worried, she still chose to let Conan follow Amuro Toru.
On the other hand, the reason why Edogawa Conan would agree can also be used to explore the secret of Amuro Toru.
"Amuro-nii and Edogawa-san, you must pay attention to your safety."
Daterui, who had been silent on the side, witnessed their conversation and decision, and when the two were about to follow Officer Minura to the Armed Detective Agency Only then did he speak out.
Even after they left, Idarui did not relax.
She thought of her previous experience, and maybe the screen would transfer to Edogawa Conan. As long as Daterui confirmed again whether the screen would be transferred again and she would not be able to see where she was...
Date Ryui was probably able to learn that the protagonist they were talking about was really Conan Edogawa himself and confirm some things that he could understand.
"Liu Yi."
Ida Liuyi looked up. She thought it was Mao Lilan who saw her dazed and called her, but what she saw was that Mao Lilan and others had just taken a few steps and turned to look at Ida Liuyi. Once again, it was fixed like a point.
She saw Mao Lilan staring at her motionless without saying anything, while the others were as unable to move as Mao Lilan.
Ida Liuyi came to Mao Lilan and said subconsciously: "Sister Xiaolan...?"
She waved her hand, but Mao Lilan made no movement at all. Then Ida Liuyi looked at the place where she was standing not far away. The others, like Mao Lilan, were as motionless as a piece of wood.
Idarui looked around and saw that the voice was not coming from them.
Is it the same as what happened just now?
She thought this, and then paid attention to the barrage in her mind. It was different from the situation just now. The barrage was normal, and it looked just like Idarui thought. The picture was no longer at Mihara's house, and the barrage was following Action Edogawa Conan.
So who is it...
is it her rabbit doll that disappeared for a long time but then suddenly appeared?
Idarui felt a little scary.
"Rui."
That voice appeared again, and this time Ida Rui looked behind him following the clear voice.
The "rabbit doll" was standing on the ground not far from her, looking quietly at Idarui.
It met Idarui's eyes, and the world seemed to have become quiet at this moment.
