Arriving in Beika Town, Tokyo, where cases frequently occur, you can encounter a murder case just by walking a few steps.
Transform into light in the darkness, piercing through layers of fog....
6pm, Beihu Park.
In the dim sky, you can occasionally see owners walking through the center of the park with their huskies, who don't cry, make a fuss or destroy things. However, the temperature is a bit low today, so not many people are out for a walk.
"Hey, Hattori!"
A head popped out from the dark bushes and shouted to the butt buried in the bushes on the other side, who was not sure what to do:
"How's your inspection going?"
“Almost there!”
A response came from the other side in the distance. Hattori Heiji stepped out of the bushes, looked at the small flashlight, held it in his mouth, and drew the detailed terrain of Haido Park on the notebook.
Since it is a site visit, you should do it in detail and complete the preparations beforehand.
Conan and Hattori Heiji happened to be two meticulous people. They spent 4 hours thoroughly exploring the area around Haido Park, leaving no corner untouched.
"There is a fountain in the middle of the park, and the interview will be held here..."
On a park bench, Conan and Hattori Heiji huddled together, discussing and analyzing clues:
"In addition to the lawn, there are four roads in the park that lead directly to the fountain. If the FBI wanted to ambush the Black Organization, they would definitely choose to disguise themselves as tourists or lawn mowers, which would not easily attract attention."
"A trick to lure someone into a trap?"
Hattori Heiji thought for a moment and said:
"If it were me, I would definitely set up an ambush in advance, and when Gin and the others entered the ambush circle, I would immediately start arresting them. Since the Black Organization is a group of desperate criminals, a gunfight is bound to occur, but the chances of winning are probably higher on the FBI's side..."
"It's hard to say. This operation is commanded by the Boss himself. This is an unknown enemy. We must not underestimate him."
Conan looked around, his face very serious:
"There are many trees planted in Beihu Park. According to our observations from the rooftop of a nearby building, there is only one place where we can snipe the fountain, which is a 30-story office building. There are 11 suitable sniping points... We are not sure where Chianti and the others will choose."
"The FBI has enough manpower to cover these 11 sniper locations."
"I'm afraid the Black Organization will use a bomb... But that wouldn't be an assassination, it would be more appropriate to call it a terrorist attack."
"We still have to wait for Gin to send us the mission details."
Hattori Heiji looked at the time and found it was already half past six. He stood up, patted his butt, and said:
"Mr. Sakaki should be off work now. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat some rice balls?"
"eat!"
Jumping off the bench, the two walked out of the park along the path, bought some rice balls at a convenience store, and prepared to go home to eat, but when they returned to Beika-cho 5-chome....
I just happened to see Kidd burping and going upstairs with a toothpick in his mouth. The greasy look on the corners of his mouth showed that this kid had a very good meal tonight. Look at his very satisfied expression!
Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at each other and immediately followed.
"Huh?"
When he opened the door, Sakaki Makoto saw Conan and the other man running upstairs, and said in surprise:
"Where have you been?"
"Beihu Park, check out the location."
Conan answered concisely:
"What did you have for dinner?"
"Crystal pork elbow, hand-held lamb chops and crispy rice crust."
“.......”
Looking down at the poor nori rice balls in the plastic bag, Conan and Hattori Heiji's mouths moved a few times and they wanted to curse in their hearts.
“Why didn’t you invite us to the feast!!!”
"That's right! We braved the cold wind to go to Beihu Park to check out the area, and we didn't forget to bring back rice balls, but you guys ate all by yourself!!!"
"Hey, hey, hey, stop yelling. I've packed it for you."
Sakaki Makoto raised the take-away box in his hand, scratched his ear, and said impatiently:
"Although it's Kidd's leftovers and it's a little cold, I don't think you two will mind."
"What did you pack?"
Conan snatched the plastic bag, followed the scent and looked inside, forgetting even to be angry.
When he saw that the bag contained a box of cumin lamb chops and half a crystal pork elbow, he finally smiled:
"That's more like it. You have some conscience."
After entering the house, Conan ran into the kitchen, tiptoed to take a few plates from the cabinet, put the cumin lamb chops, crystal pork elbow and rice balls into the microwave to heat them up, and two minutes later he happily carried the plates to the living room, sat down and prepared to eat.
On the other side, Makoto Sakaki and Miss Miyano were looking at the map they had drawn during their field survey in the afternoon.
Even small bushes suitable for secret observation are specially marked on the map, so that everything is clear at a glance.
"Well... With this map, I won't be afraid of another group of people, let alone the FBI and the Black Organization!"
"You know everything?"
With a frown, Sakaki Makoto peeked out from behind the map and looked at the short and fat kid with bulging cheeks, as if he was lying on a summer lotus to cool off.
"Know what?"
Conan looked confused.
"Did you know that Domon Yasuteru is planning to dispatch a Self-Defense Force unit to ambush the Black Organization and the FBI the day after tomorrow afternoon?"
".....Fuck! Are you kidding me? There really is a third force!"
Conan's eyes widened, and he was completely stunned.
Beihu Park is a small place, it's already crowded enough to ambush two groups of people, and now another group of people shows up...
By that time, everyone will be pushing each other, so how can we set up an ambush?
Let’s start fighting!
"Well, to be precise, there is a fourth force."
