The case was finally solved, and the murderer was indeed the suicide. After Conan deduced the whole process behind Uncle Maori, he quietly walked out to read the police records, but he did not feel relieved.
Because there is still a question... Why did the deceased have so many circles of string around his neck? Was he worried that he would not die? Or was he trying to cover up something?
However, I had no inspiration to explore this doubt further, and it was indeed a flawless secret room. I could only assume that the other party was just worried that he would not die, so he went through so many circles.
When you checked out, you ran into Matsuda. He greeted you: "Watanabe-san."
"Officer Matsuda." You also smiled and nodded.
Matsuda put the materials sent back by the front desk into his bag and asked casually, "By the way, did Watanabe-san's last injury affect his work? If so, I think I should also cover the medical expenses and the work expenses during that period."
"Eh?" You were stunned for a moment, then smiled, "It's okay, I'm the bookstore owner, I'm just sitting at the front desk, it doesn't matter. And there aren't many customers."
"Hmm? Opening a bookstore?" Matsuda turned his head. "Watanabe-san is indeed very bookish - can I know the address? Maybe I can come to see you in Ekoda Town someday." He smiled.
After a moment of hesitation, you naturally gave the address, chatted briefly with Matsuda, and then said goodbye.
After leaving, you slowly ponder in your heart.
Maybe Matsuda really just wanted to chat with you, or maybe... it was because of Igarashi.
First, Igarashi wants to know more information, but since he has already made you alert, it is not convenient for him to ask you himself, so he lets Matsuda, who seems to be a little familiar with you, ask.
However, Igarashi himself has advanced computer technology, and your identity as the owner of the bookstore is public. If he wants to check, he can easily find out the location of the bookstore and even more details.
Second, Matsuda noticed Igarashi's special attitude towards you, felt puzzled and made some guesses about your identity, and wanted to get further contact to get more information.
...Okay, this one sounds more likely.
Rubbing your temples with a headache, you sat in the back seat of the car and asked casually, "Speaking of which, how did you kill that person?"
"Pinch him until he faints, then strangle him to death." Kitagawa Makashi gave a brief answer.
...As expected of you, you are so direct. But you also paid attention to the fake pinching and strangulation marks.
"What about the secret room?" you asked curiously.
Could it be that the other party is so smart that he can create a locked room that even Conan can't crack?
"The door was locked from the inside, so I went in through the window. I opened the window, and then I closed it."
The words are short, but contain a lot of information. You are shocked again.
Climb the window directly?! This is more than 30 floors, and you will fall down if you are not careful! And the window here is fixed. Although there are handles on the outside, they are set up for rescue just in case, and you need to use a machine to open it with force...
Has this gang become so powerful that it is exaggerated? !
“……” While still digesting this matter in my mind, the car fell into silence again.
Looking out the window, the shops around you are flowing into colorful waves at high speed, swaying and connecting into one. It is not until you stop at a traffic light that you realize where you are now.
"Eh? This doesn't seem to be the way back to Jianggutian Town..."
"That's right, now you and I are going to meet at the next place."
“It’s a seamless connection!” You can’t help but exclaim, “I just finished the last mission!”
"Yes, this one has been executed, so next one." Kitagawa Mayu turned his head slightly, "No problem."
"..." You paused, "Um, there is no holiday?"
"no."
"..." Black-hearted organization! Exploiting employees! It deserves to go bankrupt!
Maybe it was because your expression was too distorted. Kitagawa Makoto looked at you from the rearview mirror. His dark red eyes stared at you: "Why, do you have any opinions?"
"...No." You, a worker at the winery and a NOC, how dare you have an opinion? You silently complained in your heart and decided to find time to hack into the organization's website later.
After another moment of silence, you looked up and asked, "What kind of mission is this? Is it just the two of us? Or is there someone else?"
"So annoying." Beichuan didn't seem to have much patience. He frowned and said, "You have so many questions."
"..." I have a lot of problems, and you are the problem person. You rolled your eyes in your heart.
But Beichuan still answered you: "Let's go to the market information trading mission. In addition to you and the young master, the others who will participate in this mission are... Gin and Bourbon."
"!!" Gin and Bourbon?!
You instantly stood up.
What kind of devil's camp is this!
Gin, the big boss throughout Conan. He is definitely a tough guy, always committed to catching and killing undercover agents and always on this road, a real winery worker!
If he finds out you're an undercover agent, he'll definitely shoot you without hesitation...
Bourbon, although you two are actually in the same camp, the other party doesn't know it! Relying on your status as a senior, you are always used as free labor... Black-hearted seniors oppress newcomers, oooo!
Sometimes you even want to secretly pit the other party, but then you think, why bother undercover agents? They are obviously in the same group... so you should just swallow your pain and tears silently...
Recall the past and combine it with the present. Very good, in this devil's camp, you are at the bottom of the food chain again.
How could this happen! .jpg
The mission hasn't even started yet and you already don't want to go.
…Forget it, think about it from another perspective. You console yourself. There are so many big guys in the team, you don’t have to worry about the completion of the mission at all! Leave it all to them, you are just a logistical support staff.
Security is guaranteed! You can rest assured.
The vehicles shuttled back and forth on the road, all the way smoothly, and arrived in front of an ordinary apartment building.
"Get out of the car." Beichuan ordered.
Hey? Do you want to go upstairs?
You followed Kitagawa Maaki out of the car and drove through the apartment area to another parking lot where there was a low-key black car.
...Do all organizations love black cars?
Because it is dirt-resistant?
With a leisurely mind, Beichuan opened the back door and got in, and you followed closely behind.
"Huh, it's so slow." Gin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, lowered the brim of his hat, with a chilling aura surrounding him.
"Can't you read the watch? You're two minutes early."
"!" He was so tough! Talking to Gin in this tone...!
Feeling the murderous air in the car, you shrank your neck and silently reduced your presence.
"Well, alright, alright." Amuro Toru, who was sitting in the driver's seat, said with a smile, trying to ease the tense atmosphere, "Now that everyone is here, shall we set off?"
"——Fenjiu probably doesn't know the specific content of this mission yet." Amuro Toru raised his phone, "I just sent you an email, take a look first."
“Okay, no problem,” you say, opening your laptop to check.
The destination is a bar where the transaction takes place.
This bar belongs to the gray area. It looks normal on the surface, but there is actually a floor underground... I guess there are things in there that are not allowed by law.
"..." Your eyes flickered, and you began to search for more details in the small window.
"The contact just now sent another message." Amuro Toru glanced at his phone while driving, "Oh...? Should I go down to the first floor?"
"Hmph, what on earth is that old guy trying to do?" Gin stroked Berletta in his hand.
"If we don't want to cause any trouble, we have to go in as normal customers. But..." Amuro Toru smiled, "If we want to go to the lower level, we may need a woman."
“…”
"Well...it's obviously too late to call another member over. Maybe we should send someone to pretend to be a woman." Amuro Toru continued slowly.
"Who's coming?" You ask subconsciously, and then you realize how stupid this question is.
You looked at the smiling Toru Amuro, the cold-faced Gin exuding murderous aura, and the slightly shark-toothed Kitagawa Makashi... and then you realized it.
"...I understand." You sighed in your heart and said consciously, "Let me do it - it just so happens that I also have a female identity, and I carry a portable disguise tool and identity card with me. But now I need a place to change clothes."
"There are suitable women's clothes in the trunk, and there is an opaque public telephone booth on the side of the apartment building with no surveillance. You can change clothes inside." Toru Amuro said with a smile.
"..." I seriously suspect that the other party had planned this long ago! Would a normal person put women's clothing in the trunk! ?
You complained like crazy in your heart, but your expression remained unchanged. With a blank expression, you took your things and changed your appearance, putting on your voice changer.
Fortunately, when I was in the underground before, I also tried to act in women's clothing under the instructor's assessment... Although I still feel very awkward wearing a skirt.
Your identity name is Beichuan Yuqiao, but looking at this very familiar surname, you decisively use your superb computer skills to change all the names to "Chaoyang Sanqi" with one click.
The number 37 was chosen casually, based on the number thirty-seven.
Patting your cheeks and adjusting your facial expression, you looked at the girl with black hair and red eyes in the mirror and tried to adapt for a few minutes. Then you exhaled, walked out of the phone booth with your bag, and returned to the black car.
You opened the back door and sat back in: "Okay, I'm fine. The name of this identity is Chaoyang Sanqi." The female voice behind the voice changer still makes you feel uncomfortable.
"..."The shark teeth beside you kept staring at you. You wanted to ignore it, but this feeling was too uncomfortable!
So you turned around and asked, "What's up?"
“…”
What terrifies you is that the other person lowers his head and slowly - blushes? !!!
No, why are you blushing? Are you crazy?
"Ah, sister..." Beichuan rarely spoke in a low voice, pointing his finger at the stutterer, his cheeks slightly red.
“…”
You can't help but go up to him and grab his collar and shake him wildly——
Wake up, you bastard! Look carefully, I am not your sister!
Aaaaahhh!!
