Chapter 3460 3472 [Kidnap Shirley and Kill Her] Ask for a monthly ticket ()
After hearing this, Haibara Ai had already vaguely guessed the result.
Sure enough, Judy whispered, “Sharon Wynyard’s fingerprints and her daughter Chrissie Wynyard’s fingerprints are exactly the same.
"That deceased old movie star and her beautiful young daughter are actually the same person."
Although she had anticipated this, when she heard the exact truth, Haibara Ai couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart, and her fear of the "Thousand-Faced Witch" increased a little more.
But compared to the meaningless fear, there is something more important now.
Ai Huihara took a deep breath and asked Judy: "How long has Vermouth been impersonating you? - From what you just said, your FBI's investigation into her should be quite in-depth, but..."
But how come in the end, it was you, the FBI, who was locked up in the basement?
Judy smiled bitterly. "I can't really say how long I've been impersonating you. There are no windows here, so I don't know how many days have passed...
“But I was taken away by Vermouth on the night when a man fell from a building in my house. That cunning woman must be in cahoots with Uzo. First, Uzo used the case to exhaust my attention, and then when it was over, Vermouth disguised himself as the Osaka detective and came to visit me.
"When I heard someone knocking on the door, I thought it was that difficult high school detective who had returned, but when I opened the door, I didn't expect..."
Thinking of her carelessness at that time, Judy closed her eyes in annoyance.
In front of her, Haibara Ai held her breath. "Uzo"... This was obviously the name of a wine. Was he Vermouth's accomplice?
Also, what does "using cases to exhaust attention" mean? Is this a favorite tactic of Uzo's?
In an instant, a rumbling sound seemed to be heard in Haibara Ai's head.
Judy knew nothing about this. She was still immersed in the regret of her previous misstep and was deeply summarizing the lessons learned.
"In the final analysis, it's because we live too far apart. James is worried that there might be a traitor among us, so he no longer allows us to gather in the same place. The reason why he is so suspicious..."
Judy gritted her teeth, "It's all because of Uzo. It turns out he's been planning this for so long! We've all been fooled by him!"
Haibara Ai didn't quite understand, but her heartbeat began to quicken. Although she didn't know what Uzo had done, judging from Judy's expression, it must have been some indescribable and powerful method.
It seemed that all the questions that needed to be asked had been asked. Haibara Ai resisted the urge to continue asking about "Uzo" and planned to leave here first, find a place with a signal, tell Jiang Xia about the situation, and then see what to do next.
…
On the dock.
While the mini scientist's brain was working frantically, the mini detective's brain speed was no less than hers.
After figuring out the most crucial point, Conan's thinking was no longer as rigid as before - just like the flash of inspiration he usually had during a case, this time he also had a flash of inspiration and figured out some key things.
"Come to think of it, the last few times I saw Dr. Akaide, and when Ayumi and the others saw Dr. Akaide at the train station, the doctor was either wearing a mask or wrapped in a scarf."
Conan recalled what Ayumi Yoshida said during a casual chat during class not long ago, "Dr. Shinde seems to have caught a cold. He has been wearing a mask. Doctors can also catch a cold!", and then touched the thick mask on his face that concealed the voice changer. Suddenly, he felt a sense of absurdity that he was in the dark.
——The voice-changing technique I used was actually being used by the other party.
After a brief pause, Conan forced himself to get over this uncomfortable coincidence and continued to think: "My previous speculation was not wrong. The previous 'Doctor Shinde' was Vermouth.
"But in recent days, 'Dr. Shinde' has been replaced, and Teacher Judy has also been replaced... The new 'Dr. Shinde' is someone who can't fake his voice."
Thinking of this, Conan guessed the other party's identity, but he didn't have much clue: there are very few people who can fake their voices, but there are too many people who can't, and he couldn't think of who it was for a while.
If you can't think of it, forget about it for now. There are many more important mysteries anyway, such as...
"She already had a disguise, but why did Vermouth change her identity and create another one before she took action?"
"Could it be that they knew my plan and were going to use it against me?
"...But that's not right. My plan was not fully implemented until I received the invitation to the Full Moon Festival, but Vermouth replaced Teacher Judy much earlier than this.
"Damn it, what the hell is going on? What is her purpose?!"
…
When Conan's brain is overloaded.
Beside him, Vermouth looked at him and sighed silently in her heart.
…It seems that “Judy’s” identity has been exposed.
"It's all that idiot Bourbon's fault." Vermouth glanced at the "Dr. Arata" across from her, murderous intent rising in her heart. "When Cool guy was asking the question just now, he actually glanced in my direction... Is his acting bad, or is he deliberately trying to sabotage me?"
Vermouth's original plan was actually very simple.
——He disguised himself as Judy to pick up Haibara Ai, then found someone else to disguise himself as "Dr. Arata" to chase after her, passing by surveillance cameras at random intersections, and staged a good show of "Vermouth wanted to kidnap Shirley, but the FBI, who had been monitoring her for a long time, got there first."
In this way, she could take advantage of the FBI's distraction to take Shirley away and kill her. As for why she didn't kill her on the spot - it is well known that a corpse is often more difficult to deal with than a living person.
Moreover, if Wu Zo finds him before leaving... leaving him alive would be a way out: he could run away at any time, but what if in Wu Zo's eyes, Shirley, a toy, is more important than Cool Guy and Angel?
"Anyway, the FBI has a witness protection program, and it wouldn't be difficult for Shirley to get approved. This means that when Uzo is looking for someone, even if the FBI doesn't have any, it's likely just a deliberate illusion created by the FBI, which will probably delay the process for quite a while.
"In addition, in addition to the FBI, I also found another playable guy to help me delay time and bear the wrath that may come after the matter is exposed.
"According to the plan, Bourbon would only see me take a child from Professor Agasa and receive the reward I promised him. Then, he would be confused and face Uzo's revenge, struggling to survive and buy enough time.
"And I took Shirley away, leaving the others on the stage..."
But now... why did the Shirley she got turn into Conan, whom she didn't want to kill at all?
