Chapter 212 Six Gachapon

"Rejuvenation?" Hagiwara Kenji stroked his chin and thought seriously, "It should be possible, right? To be honest, I often feel that Kofuku is rejuvenated."

Matsuda Jinpei: "...He just has an ordinary baby face, at most a little frozen in time."

The two men were talking in low voices. If Conan hadn't been frightened by the key words "rejuvenation", he would have certainly not heard the content of their conversation. He wanted to listen more, but he saw the two police officers naturally changed the topic.

Conan had no choice but to run to his adopted brother who was sitting next to him without doing anything to investigate. He didn't even notice the two people behind him secretly glancing at him.

The child quickly and quietly relayed what he had heard, and then asked anxiously, "So, do Officers Matsuda and Hagiwara look familiar to you?"

They are well aware of Zero's amnesia. Anyone who looks familiar to him is either a related person or a member of the organization that kidnapped him and caused him to lose his memory. So Conan's words are equivalent to asking whether the childhood friend duo on Zero's side have any connection with the organization that persecuted them.

Combined with the inexplicable words of Officer Matsuda about "rejuvenation"...it's hard for Conan not to think in a wrong direction.

And when he recalled this, he remembered that Officer Matsuda was indeed present at the aquarium incident that day!

Conan had only met the other party a few times and did not have any deep impression of him. Officer Hagiwara had met him when he was a child... but those were only a few encounters. His trust in these two was not strong enough to believe that this was all a coincidence.

Akae Nazuki blinked and in her heart she admired Matsuda Jinpei's luck.

Because according to the setting of "Gachapon Brother Zero", he really felt that Matsuda and the others looked familiar - after all, for the 20-year-old Kaluuya, the last time he saw them was half a year ago, and he died half a year after graduation, so of course the memory was fresh and warm.

This familiar look is different from what Conan thought it was, but how could the amnesiac Gachapon brother know?

Chi Jiang Na Yue found a suitable excuse for his idea of ​​having fun, and then pretended to think seriously, "Indeed, when I saw that tall police officer, I felt my fist itching, and I really wanted to have a close contact with his face. And that curly-haired police officer kept staring at my face while you were reasoning, so I guess he really knows me."

Yes, isn't it certain that the Kaluuya version of Zero he plays would get itchy hands when he sees Hagiwara?

He had just graduated that year and was probably already planning those "terrorist attacks" against the organization. Under such mental tension, he was able to change the fate of Hagiwara Kenji who was originally going to be killed by the explosion and save this colleague who did not turn on the shielding device or wear explosion-proof clothing at the explosion site...

It can be said that Hagiwara Kenji inadvertently added a lot of workload to Kalua, who had just graduated. However, thanks to Kalua's hard work, Akae Nazuki no longer needs to worry about retrieving people in this world, and can have fun with the settings of Gachapon Brother.

Akae Nazuki spoke confidently, without any sign of lying - he indeed did not lie, he just packaged the truth a little bit and successfully misled Conan.

As expected, Conan's eyes became fierce.

Of course Conan remembered that Zero was also a police academy student...but according to his age, how could Zero, who is only 20 years old this year, or at most 21 years old, have such a familiar relationship with the two police officers in the Explosive Demolition Squad?

Someone who can make Zero, who is not familiar with him, remember him even though he has lost his memory...

Anyway, I should be a little more cautious from now on, and also test whether Officer Matsuda and the others know Zero.

The child thought solemnly: I seemed to have heard Officer Hagiwara say a name before, but unfortunately he didn't hear what he said.

He also didn't want to doubt two excellent policemen, so he thought of several possibilities, including the reason why Zero was kidnapped and lost his memory.

Since he is a young police officer who graduated from the police academy, is it possible that Zero was undercover and was discovered? In that case, it would be a little bit of a reason why Officer Matsuda and his team knew him... Well, it still doesn't work. Why would the police officers of the Explosives Squad be familiar with Zero, whose physical memory is a bit like that of a detective?

He rubbed his brows, but decided to solve the case first under the comfort of Akae Nayue. Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji would not run away, so there would be plenty of time to test them later.

"Have you found any other clues about the case?" Conan's attention was successfully diverted, and he seriously asked the Gachapon brother who had excellent reasoning ability.

"Hmm, you want to know how Urikawa Shin switched the drugs?" Akajinazuki rested her chin on his hand and gave a slight reminder, "The deceased had a cleanliness fetish."

Conan pondered for a moment: "Ah, I figured it out! In the surveillance video, he was still wearing his coat when he went into the bathroom, and he had taken it off when he came out... If Mr. Sarikawa went in and told him that he could help the deceased get his coat while he went to the bathroom, washed his hands, and tidied his clothes, then the medicine could be replaced naturally!"

"But the deceased won't give him the coat." Akajinazuki hummed, "After all, Rikawa looks unkempt, and the deceased's cleanliness obsession can only tolerate his wife holding his clothes, which is impossible for Rikawa."

"So, we need to create a reason that will make the deceased agree to give him the coat." Conan suddenly realized, jumped off the chair and ran towards the direction of the police officer from the Forensic Department. He seemed to say something to the other party and successfully saw the photo presented by the other party.

Akae Nazuki was not in a hurry at all. She sat leisurely in her seat waiting for the child to come back. Professor Agasa was also covering for Conan.

He caught a glimpse of Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji chatting about something, and then the latter took the initiative to walk towards him.

The police officer with half-long hair and grape-purple eyes smiled at him with a friendly look, and then extended his hand: "I haven't talked to you before. Hello, I am--"

"Officer Hagiwara, I've heard of your name." The black-haired detective looked indifferent. He held Hagiwara Kenji's hand and shook it casually for a few times. "Is there something you want to talk to me about? If it's about the case, I'm not needed for this case. My brother is also a very capable little detective."

He pointed this out directly, and after hearing the content of the reply, Kenji Hagiwara was a little suspicious whether it was the little detective who eavesdropped on their conversation who relayed it, or whether the big detective heard it himself or guessed it.

After all, the person who was sighing at Conan's ridiculous intelligence was Hagiwara himself.

Hagiwara Kenji still showed no signs of being embarrassed. He smiled and let go of her hand, praising her, "Indeed, Conan is really smart. I really envy him. Not only does Edogawa-kun have such a cute and capable brother, he is also capable himself."

At the same time, he frowned inwardly.

When introducing himself, he just said he was Conan's brother, 'Edogawa-kun', and he didn't have a cobweb in his hand.

Not only were there the gun coils they wanted to try out or the coils left over from training certain skills, there wasn't even a pen coil that a normal student of this age would have. The touch of the skin on his palms and fingers was like that of a young master who had never touched women.

In fact, Edogawa-kun gave the impression of a young master. He attracted the attention of people just by sitting there. Hagiwara saw that many onlookers were actually looking at him. In addition, the detective had been silent for several times before, but once he spoke, it was the key evidence...

Although I find it hard to understand why the other party chose to let his elementary school brother investigate the murder case, Edogawa-kun doesn't look like a young master at all except for his temperament.

Well, that's just the feeling the other person gave him.

The clothes that Edogawa-kun wore looked like something that could be bought in a normal shopping mall, but he wore them with a high-end feel. He had also looked at the motorcycle outside out of curiosity, and then Hagiwara, a car lover, immediately realized that it must have been assembled by the other party himself.

He said so much just to tell himself that this was very contradictory. Since Edogawa-kun was not a young master, why didn't he have any hairpins on his hands? Either the other party was so delicate that he had polished it specially, or he had done something special on his hands.

Kenji Hagiwara, who had occasionally met the two people who went undercover at the same time in the past two years, immediately began to think in that direction.

Ahem, I'll ask Kojiro and Komorobushi later if the disguise they mentioned can simulate the hand skin so realistically that even he feels there is no trace of treatment.

Kenji Hagiwara was thinking this and that in his heart, but on the surface he was still waiting seriously for Edogawa-kun to respond. However, he didn't expect that the other party glanced at him slowly, and the expression under the mask must be smiling.

"Although I also think my brother is very smart." The black-haired detective said lazily, "But the officer seems to have made a mistake somewhere. My name is not Edogawa."

Hagiwara Kenji blinked: Eh? Isn't it?

...Oh yes, they had already made up their minds because the other party said he was Edogawa Conan's brother.

He wanted to ask the other party's real name again, but the detective stood up and said goodbye to him casually, and walked towards the place where he had already started to deduce the truth. Behind Hagiwara Kenji, Matsuda Jinpei, who was approaching hurriedly, sounded shocked: "Hey Hagi, look at the photo sent by the squad leader!"

Ever since his 24th birthday, Jinpei has firmly stated that he is a mature adult, and he has become much calmer in his daily life. Hagiwara Kenji can't remember the last time he saw his childhood friend so restless.

It seemed like it was when I met Kofuru and his friends at a bar who were working part-time as a resident band in order to go undercover?

Kenji Hagiwara thought absentmindedly, and while saying "Okay, okay, I'll watch it now," he turned on his cell phone.

Hagiwara Kenji's gaze froze.

The name that Conan Edogawa's brother left at the Metropolitan Police Department was... Furuya Rei? !

The two elite police officers from the Explosives Squad raised their heads and looked at the crowd with expressions as if they were looking at a monster.

Conan had already completed half of the public reasoning with the help of the doctor. The photo he had just looked at was of the deceased's coat, and there were indeed dark marks of moisture in the corners.

Because the deceased smelled too strongly of alcohol, Conan had not noticed the mark before, and after it was mixed with the smell of alcohol, no one could tell what it was. But now, combined with his reasoning, it is not difficult to guess that that was the bargaining chip that Sarikawa used to make the deceased take off his coat.

The forensic officer said that the sauce probably got on his coat accidentally. However, considering the actual situation at the time, the deceased took off his coat and gave it to his wife for safekeeping after coming out of the bathroom. How could a coat that was always hung inside and would not touch passers-by get stained with sauce "accidentally"?

Only if the coat was dirty before it was hung up would the deceased, who had a cleanliness freak, have taken off his coat in disgust and asked Rikawa to help hold it, and the coat would have been handed over to his wife.

I'm afraid that Sarikawa wanted to use this method to make the 'assistant who took the initiative to feed the deceased hangover medicine' and the 'wife who had plenty of time to replace the medicine' the most suspicious people, so as to clear himself of suspicion!

"Mr. Urikawa, you are the murderer!" The young detective hiding in the corner and using a voice changer said in a deep voice, "This is a case with crude methods and frame-up, but I still don't understand why you killed the victim? According to what you said, shouldn't you be able to pay off your debts?"

Being watched by everyone, Sarikawa Shin groaned and scanned the people around him with a cold expression. He did not answer the question, but took something out of his pocket the next second: "People who know too much will be buried with you, understand?"

It looked like a bomb remote control, but the buttons on it were well covered.

"Brother Zero!" Conan noticed something was wrong in advance and shouted.

After receiving the command, the Gachapon brother flashed in front of the gun-wielding Susumu Sakariya at a speed that no one could react to. Before the other party pulled the trigger, he used a very standard arrest technique to press the man to the ground, and the remote control was also kicked to Conan's feet.

The young detective quickly squatted down and put the dangerous goods away, fearing that someone else would get it.

Rikawa Jin, who had just made a harsh remark, didn't react before he heard the person who was restraining him say something softly.

"Did you know?" Chijiang Nayue reminded him, "There are at least five people in this restaurant who can defuse bombs."

Susumu Urikawa:?
