The next morning.
As agreed, Fujiwara Yu went to Dr. Agasa's house early in the morning to pick up the Junior Detective Team and headed towards Soho Town. He increasingly felt that buying a commercial vehicle was the right decision, as it was the only way to transport a car full of children.
Ai Huihara, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at the yawning Fujiwara Yuu. She took out a sandwich wrapped in tin foil from her backpack and asked:
"Would you like to eat something? You probably don't have time to make breakfast?"
"Asami did it for me."
When Fujiwara Yu said this, there was a happy smile on his face, but he didn't know that in Haibara Ai's eyes, happiness turned into showing off. This guy was definitely showing off that he could eat the breakfast made by his sister.
Haibara Ai glared at Fujiwara Yu, threw the sandwich directly to Kojima Genta who was sitting in the back seat with a look of longing, and then raised her cell phone to act coquettishly to her sister, saying that she also wanted to eat the food her sister cooked.
Fujiwara Yu, who realized it later, glanced cautiously at Haibara Ai's expression and thought to himself: Sister complex is so scary.
The distance between Beika Town and Soho Town was not far, and even with the heavy traffic in the morning, it didn't take long to get there. After getting off the car, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko looked at the house in front of him and said in surprise:
"I didn't expect there were houses with this structure. It feels like stairs!"
"This is the type that Professor Moritani hates the most." Conan Edogawa stared at the irregular building in front of him and complained in a low voice.
Fujiwara Yu had no intention of going up. He had a high degree of trust in Kudo Shinichi. Besides, even if Kudo was not there, Miyano Shiho was still there, so he was not too worried that anything might happen to these kids.
He rolled down the window, looked at the few people, and said:
"Don't bother Mr. Yuan. I'll just stop here and wait for you. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
After watching the children go upstairs, Fujiwara Yu reached into his pocket and took out a pack of unopened Seven Stars cigarettes, but before he opened the wrapper, he gave up the idea of smoking to refresh himself. He obediently opened the car door and walked towards the convenience store on the corner of the street.
Accompanied by the electronic sound effects of "Welcome", he skillfully walked to the freezer and took out a can of black coffee. But then he felt bored staying in the car, so he turned and walked towards the snack area.
Buzz buzz buzz.
The vibration of the cell phone made Fujiwara Yu withdraw his hand that was about to take the potato chips. He picked up the phone and saw that the caller ID was from Miyano Shiho. His face suddenly changed. He quickly paid for the coffee in his hand and rushed to Hara Yoshiaki's house while answering the call.
It turned out that his intuition was very strong, and the news from the other end of the phone was not good news.
"Come here quickly, Yuan Jiaming is dead."
"Okay, you and Kudo secure the scene, I'll be there soon!"
How did Yuan Jiaming die? Was he killed by the organization?
Fujiwara Yu frowned deeply. He vaguely felt that things were becoming complicated. He had thought that he could be relieved that Oki Iwamatsu was not killed by the organization, but now Hara Yoshiaki is also dead... Could it be that he made a wrong judgment?
He quickly ran up to the fourth floor and did not forget to put on gloves before entering. He took out a portable purple light from his pocket and shone it on the floor. After confirming that there were no adult footprints, he directly opened the shoe cabinet next to him.
The slippers in the shoe cabinet were neatly arranged, and the accumulated dust indicated they hadn't been used recently. So, did the murderer not wear slippers? Was the murderer familiar enough with Yuan Jiaming to not wear slippers?
Fujiwara Yu held his chin and thought for a while. After closing the shoe cabinet door, he walked into the crime scene and saw the body of Hara Jiaming lying in a pool of blood. It was obvious that his body was in a severe state of rigor mortis, which meant that he might have died yesterday.
Edogawa Conan, who was standing nearby, pointed at the thing in the pool of blood and reminded:
"Brother Yingsi, look over there, there's a small wine glass."
A broken wine glass was placed on the left side of Yuan Jiaming's body, which was consistent with what Oki Yansong saw at the scene, both broken into two.
Serial murders? Now that we've confirmed the shot glasses were left behind by the killer, this foolish act is clearly a provocation to the police.
Fujiwara Yu unbuttoned Hara Yoshiaki's shirt with a gloomy face, and he found that this time it was not a stab wound, but a gunshot wound.
Why did the killer suddenly change his method? You know, gunshots are very likely to be discovered by nearby residents, which is much more risky than stabbing.
He used his hands to pry open the wound on his chest and forcibly took out a bullet from it. It was a 9mm pistol bullet.
Conan Edogawa was very happy after seeing the pistol bullets. He smiled and said:
"It's a 9mm bullet! Brother Yingsi, if we check the rifling, is there any chance we can figure out which gun fired the bullet?!"
"Idiot, are you stupid?" Fujiwara Yuu glared, his eyes half-mooned. He held the bullet in his hand and asked, "Who are you going to check? Will they tell you obediently, do I have a pistol here?"
Conan Edogawa scratched the back of his head. He was indeed a little too happy too soon. He turned to look at the Junior Detectives who were afraid to approach, but noticed that there was something wrong with Haibara Ai's expression.
It's strange, because logically, Haibara wouldn't be afraid of this kind of situation.
9mm bullet.
Huiyuan Ai clenched her fists tightly, and a terrifying guess emerged in her mind. Could it be that he had killed Yuan Jiaming? No, she must remind Fujiwara Yu to investigate this case thoroughly.
She quickly walked to Fujiwara Yu's side and told him her guess under his surprised gaze:
"The Beretta M92F uses 9mm ammunition, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Gin's favorite pistol is the Beretta M92F. Is Hara Jiaming related to the organization?" Haibara Ai knows very well what kind of people the organization likes to recruit. People like Hara Jiaming who can create machines that predict future appearances are definitely the target of the organization. Now that he has been shot, it is hard not to make connections.
Fujiwara Yu's pupils shrank suddenly. After seeing the small wine glass, he didn't associate the case with the organization. But what if the organization was using Oki Iwamatsu's murderer to fabricate a serial murder case?
Thinking of this, he immediately went to check the wine glass. Sure enough, there was no blood on all the fragments. This showed that the murderer had put this thing here some time ago, and also showed that the murderer stayed in the room for a while after committing the crime.
What are they going to do during this time?
When Fujiwara Yu thought of Hara Yoshiaki's work, he immediately ran towards the study. After turning on the computer, he confirmed that Miyano Shiho's guess was correct - Hara Yoshiaki was killed by the organization, even if it was not Gin, it was other members.
All the files in the computer disappeared and were cleaned up very thoroughly.
Sure enough, Yuan Jiaming was communicating with the organization through his home computer, so was he killed to silence him?
What secrets of the organization did he learn? Damn it, if only he had discovered it earlier!
