The reason why he didn't ask Gin directly was not because he was in a playful mood. Rather, asking Gin would indeed give him an answer, but Gin would only give him the same old superficial information.

For example, what is Plum's name, what he looks like (maybe he will send a photo), and that's it.

Zhu Fukongliang needs something more detailed.

However, after he had really searched and confirmed the information, Zhu Fu Kong Liang realized that today would probably be a little more complicated than he had imagined.

Never mind, at least I have a peace of mind. The part-time policeman picked up the fork and finally tried to eat the chestnut cake that he had stabbed several times but still stubbornly held.

But just when the tempting cream was about to touch the lips and teeth, a scream was heard from not far away.

Zhu Fu Kong Liang: ...

Zhufu Kongliang was silent for two seconds, then took a bite of the cake in his mouth, and when Amuro Toru and Edogawa Conan suddenly stood up and walked towards the screaming direction, he slowly wiped his mouth, and took another bite of the cake before being noticed.

To be honest, the taste of this cake is really worthy of its signature taste. He even wanted to tie the chef back.

When Sora Akechi arrived at the scene, Conan Edogawa had already determined the cause of death.

As mentioned before, the structure of this cafe is quite interesting. It also has private rooms, but they are not locked and have good soundproofing. Generally, customers who choose to use the private rooms for this kind of occasions are either discussing work or prefer a quiet environment. In short, the waiters will not enter before the service bell rings.

The victim was killed in the private room.

The victim was a social animal who looked to be around 25 years old. He was lying on the coffee table with a notebook in front of him. The blood splattered directly onto the open computer.

And the traces next to the computer...Zhu Fukongliang narrowed his eyes slightly.

Edogawa Conan also obviously noticed this small detail. That was the interface position next to the laptop. There was a blank area the size of a USB flash drive that was not spattered by blood.

Apparently, the victim was inserting the USB drive and doing something, but was killed at this moment and the USB drive was taken away.

There was no surveillance inside the private room, and the surveillance in the corridor outside did not have full coverage due to the structure of the cafe. At least in the private room that the deceased entered, the surrounding surveillance could only show the time when he passed by that location at a certain point in time and when he left, but it could not determine who actually entered the room.

This location happens to lead to the washroom and toilet, so it is natural that many people pass by.

After checking the surveillance footage through police identification, it was determined that there were three people who passed by that location within the time range of the deceased's death...it really was a choice between three.

They were the three people that Zhufu Kongliang had noticed before, and Plum was among them.

Noticing the impatience that flashed across Plum's face, Zhufu Kongliang sighed inwardly and decided to happily throw the reason for the failure of the mission to the other party.

"What is this?" Zhu Fu Kongliang deliberately made a little sound, bent down, seemed to have found something around the dead body, and picked up something through his gloves.

After everyone's attention shifted over, Zhu Fu Kong Liang picked up the USB flash drive with blood stains on the surface.

The expressions of the three contestants who had to choose one of the three changed to varying degrees.

Conan Edogawa subconsciously felt a little confused. He had searched that location just now, so why didn't he see it?

But the facts are right in front of him, and Edogawa Conan can only admit that he might have overlooked this detail just now. Looking at the USB flash drive with blood on the surface, because the surface was not abnormally stained with blood, it was impossible to extract fingerprints from the USB flash drive to confirm the answer.

Conan Edogawa immediately said: "Just plug it into the computer and open it to see what it is!"

At this moment, three voices stopped him in unison: "No!"

Those are the three murder candidates.

Under Conan Edogawa's confused and puzzled gaze, the three candidates looked at each other with suspicion in their eyes.

Zhu Fukongliang said casually: "Why? This is the most obvious evidence. Or is there any other information that you didn't explain just now?"

After realizing their suspicion, the three explained why they stayed in the blind spot of the surveillance. The reasons were all very reasonable, and none of them admitted that they knew the victim. As other police officers had not arrived yet, they could not conduct a further investigation.

As a result, at least on the surface, their reasons are all acceptable, and there is no way to determine whether they actually know the victim.

And since they can say they don’t know the person and are not afraid of police investigation, they probably have their own reasons.

However, this sentence directly exposed the fact that they did know the victim.

Forget about the other two people, why did Plumb have to intervene? Because Plumb did not have enough information, he could not be sure.

Zhufu Kongliang was standing behind Amuro Toru and smiled faintly.

Plum was a temporary successor, and Gin mistakenly thought that Bylandite would disguise herself. After Bylandite said, "Because I'm a policeman, it's inconvenient for me to show my face," he would naturally think that Bylandite would most likely choose to disguise herself in this mission, rather than completing the mission through the face of Zhufu Kongliang.

So how could Gin know what Bylandide looks like after his disguise? Since even Gin doesn't know, how can Plum, who took over temporarily, confirm Bylandide's identity?

Therefore, the mission this time is mainly centered on Bailandide, who needs to confirm the identity of his companions and hand over the information. Plum's mission is not to identify who Bailandide is, his mission is just to get the information.

The identities were confirmed through the secret code they had agreed upon before.

At this moment, Plum could not be sure whether the dead person was "Balantid", nor was he sure whether the data in the USB flash drive was the organization's data. Once it was opened through the computer, Plum would be dead.

Even though he thought the organization's people would not die so easily, Plumb did not dare to try even if there was only a 1% chance. So he had to stop the "police" from opening the USB drive.

Among the three, the first one to lose control was the short programmer: "I admit that I know him. He is a bastard...! He is like a paparazzi, specializing in scamming people for money! There may be very important codes in it that cannot be exposed to me. It must not be seen by outsiders! He asked me to come here today just to get me to give him money! I just said I didn't know him because I didn't want to be suspected!"

Plumb also found a reason under such words.

This time it was the coach-like person's turn: "I was threatened too. The USB drive in his hand might contain some information related to me, and I don't want others to know. He said that if I didn't give him money, it would be exposed on the Internet."

The depressed gigolo lowered his eyes slightly: "...I'm almost the same. The specific thing is privacy. Even if they are police, they can't expose the personal information of residents in this situation, right?"

Very good, all three of them had a reason, and the waiter also gave the information in time, saying: "This guest stayed in the private room for a long time and only ordered a cup of coffee, so we are not sure if anyone has entered."

According to their testimonies, all three had been threatened and had met the victim, so the information in the USB drive was unimportant.

No matter whose private information it is, as long as you say "I accidentally dropped it when I was leaving" or something like "it was an accident", it will at most increase suspicion rather than directly solve the case.

On the contrary, the deceased was the perpetrator when he was alive, which caused the police to suffer from bad public opinion in this situation. They were accused of violating privacy - it was not easy to deal with it and they couldn't please both sides.

But this kind of thing is not that important to the scientific world. After all, before public opinion arises, this information is enough for the little detective to get the answer.

Plumb's suspicion was ruled out, leaving two... According to the location of the bloodstains, and the angle and direction of the knife's stabbing...

This time the case was solved quickly. Conan Edogawa told the story of the case in chronological order, and the criminal was the short programmer.

The important code was actually work-related, and it was his fault to expose it to others. Once people knew about it, he would have violated the confidentiality agreement and would have to pay the company a large amount of breach of contract compensation. So he decided to kill someone.

The case was solved, but the owner of the USB flash drive in Zhu Fu Kong Liang's hand is still unknown.

Then Zhufu Kongliang made an expression as if he suddenly noticed something, and said a word that made the hearts of the three people present who were related to the organization stop beating.

"Crow?" Zhufu Kongliang said uncertainly.

Plumb raised his head suddenly!

As Conan Edogawa's pupils trembled in doubt, Morobuchi Sora took the USB drive, squatted down and pointed it to Conan Edogawa: "Before, there was blood on it, so I didn't notice it. Now that the blood has dried up, look at the mark on it. Does it look like a crow?"

At this time, both the little programmer and the coach were stunned. The programmer said, "...That should have nothing to do with me. That bastard would not choose such a customized USB drive."

The coach obviously agreed with that and confirmed the answer: "In that case, it doesn't seem to be related to me..."

Plumb, the member of the organization with a melancholy look, seemed to be sure that the deceased was Bailandide, and immediately said, "Then it's mine."

But at this moment, Toru Amuro suddenly said, "No, it should be mine."

In front of Plum's shocked and confused eyes, he said as a matter of course: "I had always thought it was evidence of the three of you being threatened, so I didn't think too much about it. But since it was a crow, I had ordered something related before. So I just looked for it once and found that I didn't know when it fell off."

Conan Edogawa also raised his hand to fill in the gaps and spoke for Amuro Toru: "I looked for that location before, but didn't find anything. But Mr. Kongliang found it later. It should be that Amuro brother accidentally dropped it!"

Amuro Toru continued: "Both Mr. Ohkawa (programmer) and Mr. Yokogi (coach) are sure that the deceased would not use such a customized USB drive. Why does Mr. Satake think that this is related to you?"

Satake Risori——Plum gritted his teeth, not knowing how to explain for a moment. After all, he just made up an excuse, not really threatened.

It was not sudden for Toru Amuro to speak at this time. As a member of the distillery, he heard the key words (or simply confirmed through his own information channels) that the USB flash drive might be related to the organization, so he chose to take action himself instead of letting it fall into the hands of passers-by (after all, Bourbon did not know Plum's identity).

Mr. Satake Risori was one of the people threatened by the deceased. How could Bourbon be sure that he was a member of the organization? Mr. Bourbon from the Public Security Department smiled.

Zhu Fu Kong Liang was waving flags and cheering for the two players.

When did he admit that this USB drive is the one that stores the organization's data?
