Chapter 2478 2490 [Stop Calling the Police]
"That is to say, Ayumi may have encountered the robber who likes to break into houses. She lost her voice and couldn't speak. For some reason, she couldn't get her phone, so she could only use her detective badge to ask us for help."
At this point, Huihara Ai remembered something and laughed: "Thanks to Dr. Agasa who always asks us to guess some boring homophonic puzzles, Ayumi was able to come up with this way of asking for help in time."
Across from her, Kojima Genta and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko were not as relaxed as she was. The two real kids were shocked: "That murderous robber broke into Ayumi's house?!"
"If this is the case, things will be troublesome." Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya thought more and his face turned pale with fear. "When we asked Ayumi if she was okay, she tapped the badge twice to tell us that she was fine. But if she played the alarm and music to ask us for help, she would not have changed her mind at the last minute - that is to say, the person who tapped the badge the second time was not her at all, but the gangster, and she was caught by the gangster!"
"What should I do? Ayumi is going to be killed!" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was anxious, and suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked at the calm Haibara Ai in shock, with a look of grief on his face, "Ai, why aren't you anxious at all? Don't you care about Ayumi's safety?"
I didn’t expect that Ai looks so cute, but is such a cold-blooded person at heart. This is really... even more charming.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya: “…” No, now is not the time to think about these things!
He clenched his fists: "We have to go over and help!"
Huiyuan Ai looked at the dramatic child in silence: "Are you sure you want to go over now?"
She avoided the two excited children and looked at her phone again. There were two messages from Jiang Xia after she informed him of Ayumi's critical situation:
[I see.]
[I'm at the door.]
Huiyuan Ai: “…”
With Jiang Xia here, there is no need to worry about Ayumi's life safety. We only need to worry about her mental health and the criminal who broke into the house... By the way, since Jiang Xia is here, why doesn't he go in?
She was briefly confused, but soon figured it out: If she caught the criminal as soon as she arrived at the place, and if he had thought it through and dealt with all traces of his previous crime in advance, it would be difficult to give him the punishment he deserved just because he pretended to be a courier.
And now...
"What a simple and effective way to deal with it." Haibara Ai quietly crushed the reply email she had just received, and then sent another message.
——Although Jiang Xia has good intentions, this fishing-like approach may be difficult for the police and other detectives to understand. I have to remind him so that he doesn't accidentally let it slip later...
"Anyway, it's all the organization's fault." Huibara Ai sighed with mixed feelings, "Jiang Xia has been watching them act since he was a child, and has been influenced by them, so he has these habits that are different from ordinary high school detectives... From this point of view alone, those guys are really evil."
I was muttering to myself when suddenly, Teacher Kobayashi came over.
The teacher obviously knew that Huihara Ai was reliable, so she asked in confusion, "What happened to Edogawa-san just now?"
Haibara Ai was about to explain, but then she hesitated when she thought about the scene over there: What if she called the police at this time and the police arrived and saw Jiang Xia knocking someone?
...It would be better to let Jiang Xia call the police. As the person involved, he will definitely be able to grasp the most appropriate time.
Thinking of this, facing Mr. Kobayashi's puzzled gaze, Huihara Ai awkwardly said: "Edogawa's speculation may not be accurate, otherwise... let's observe it ourselves first, and then decide whether to call the police?"
Teacher Xiaolin was stunned: "...Huh?" Aren't you good friends who play together every day? Why do you suddenly not believe his speculation? Then, should I call the police?
An elementary school teacher looked at the elusive elementary school student in front of him and fell into deep thought for a moment.
…
On the other side, Conan was still running wildly on the road.
"Damn it, why didn't I realize the truth of the matter earlier!" He wanted to smack his thigh hard, but considering that he was busy running, he had to give up for the time being, "If Ayumi was killed like this..."
After a while of tension, Conan suddenly had an idea: "Wait, every criminal has his own habit of committing crimes. I remember that in the case of the murder of the female owner of the French restaurant, the robber tied her up first and killed her before leaving. This can prevent the smell of blood from arousing suspicion from others, and you don't have to worry about stepping on blood when walking around the scene - if Ayumi met the same person, then he may also have this habit!"
"From the time point of view, Ayumi should not have been killed yet, but I'm afraid she will be killed soon."
Conan took a deep breath and analyzed calmly: "We must find a way to interrupt this process... Got it!"
He took out his cell phone and took out the bow-tie voice changer with his other hand. Then he dialed Yoshida Ayumi's home and tuned out Dr. Agasa's voice.
"Since he's a robber, he must be asking for money. I just need to use an adult's voice and pretend to come to Yoshida's house to repay the money. I'm sure I can attract his attention and make him hold off on silencing me."
While thinking, Conan rushed into the door of Yoshida's apartment.
Just as he was about to run towards the elevator, a black hand suddenly reached out from behind and picked him up.
"?!" Conan was shocked: There is an ambush! !
With the reflection of the mailbox, he vaguely saw a figure behind him.
Conan acted decisively and clicked open the cover of the anesthesia watch. However, before he could press the launch button, another hand reached out from behind like lightning and grabbed his wrist tightly.
"Are you going to play with that dangerous toy of yours again?" A familiar voice came from behind, and the person immediately asked, "Why are you here? Today is a weekday, and you, a primary school student, don't have to go to class?"
"..." Conan was stunned: This voice... is the suspicious boss of Jiangxia Office!
...Why is Toru Amuro here?
If I ask this boss for help now, maybe I can get his help. But on the other hand, the timing of Amuro Toru's appearance is too coincidental. What if, what if this man is actually an accomplice of the kidnapper...
Conan's mind was racing: "I'm here to help the teacher deliver something to the students! Uncle Amuro, what about you? What are you doing here?"
Amuro Toru: "..." The address changed from brother to uncle again... Is this kid on guard against him now? And which teacher would let a kid deliver something during class? It seems like something really happened around here.
He put the man back on the ground, thought for a moment and asked, "Have you seen Jiang Xia?"
——Just now at the delivery point, Jiang Xia suddenly left him and left. This made Amuro Toru feel relieved, but also a little confused.
