It was around 8:30 pm, near Osaka Castle.
At an intersection outside an abandoned factory, Shu Hongming and others were sitting in the car. After watching Shigehiko Kyosaka walk into the intersection, the car drove forward for a while and stopped in front of an alley.
Shu Hongming, Koshizu Nanatsuki, and Toyama Ginshiro quickly got out of the car and walked into the alley.
The night rain was still pouring down, and the raindrops fell like threads in the alley, making a "rustling" sound.
Toyama Ginshiro led the way and explained softly to Shu Hongming and the others: "The alleys here extend in all directions, which is very convenient for hiding. After confirming the destination of Kyosaka Shigehiko just now, I already informed Heizang, and he should have brought him People are coming and lurking nearby..."
Before Toyama Ginshiro finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the intersection of the alley ahead: "Minister Toyama, is that you?"
"Well, that's right." Toyama Ginshiro was slightly startled, looked at the people in front of him, and greeted with a smile, "It's you, Kusukawa. Aren't you about to resign? Why are you still participating in this operation?"
"The chief said there are not enough manpower, so I came to help." The policeman named Nanchuan had a stubble on his face and looked a little embarrassed. Then he pointed forward and said, "The chief has arrived and is waiting for you in front. .”
Toyama Ginshiro responded and followed Kusukawa forward. At the same time, he introduced to Shu Hongming and Koshimizu Nanatsuki:
"Classmate Yunwen, Detective Yueshui, his name is Nanchuan, he is my subordinate, but he just resigned today and plans to go to Tokyo for development - you two are from Tokyo, please take care of him in the future."
"Well, no problem!~" Shu Hongming nodded, and then asked casually, "What is Mr. Nanchuan planning to do in Tokyo?"
"He plans to work as a detective in a friend's detective agency."
"Well……"
What a detective!
By the way, there are so many detectives in Tokyo, right?
Shu Hongming lost interest in an instant. At the same time, everyone also walked up to Hattori Heizo. After saying hello, Hattori Heizang immediately asked: "Yuanshan, how is the situation at Zhawu Yuhiro's place?"
"He has left the hotel and is coming here!" Toyama Ginshiro immediately replied, "But he came here on foot. He should be on guard against our police. In addition, his men have not discovered it yet. When they discover them, When the time comes, the people below will notify me immediately..."
"Ah That's good."
Hattori Heizou narrowed his eyes and nodded, and then suddenly asked: "...Speaking of which, where are Heiji and the others?"
"Officer Otaki said that Heiji and the others seemed to have known the truth just now, and they have already gone to the Seven Guns Hotel..."
Ginshiro Toyama replied in a low voice, and Heizo Hattori responded: "...That's good. With a reckless guy like Heiji standing in front to attract the men of the house, the possibility of the people sent by our police being discovered is very small. It will be much smaller..."
"...Next, we will be waiting for them here!"
…
It was around 8:30 pm, near Osaka Castle.
At the entrance of the Seven Guns Hotel, Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Kindaichi walked out of the hotel, then held umbrellas and ran in a certain direction together, with solemn expressions:
"The people at the hotel just now said that Arihiro Koshiya suddenly left the hotel and left from this direction, and Shigehiko Kyosaka is not in his room now, which means... he has already started taking action!"
"Yes!" Kindaichi walked quickly and glanced around, "Ms. Hirano suddenly said that she remembered seeing a photo at Mr. Hirano's house. There were five people on it. Mr. Hirano, Mr. Kato, and Mr. Hirano were killed one after another. Ms. Katagiri is all in the photo! Assuming that Mr. Kyosaka wants to kill all the people in the photo for some reason, it is very likely that Arihiro Koshiya is also in the photo... However, Ms. Hirano said that his appearance They seem completely different from the remaining two people in the photo..."
"...She must have had plastic surgery!" Conan replied casually, then frowned and said, "Speaking of which, I just called Xiaolan...sister, and she said that Shu Hongming was not in that restaurant - Shu Hongming He left before we found out the truth, where do you think he went?"
After Conan finished speaking, Hattori Heiji said "uh", remembering the experience of being tricked many times before, he slowed down a little, turned to look at Conan and said: "...Conan, don't you think that Yunwen-san? Was the murderer identified at that time? Mr. Kyosaka was on the Kukiraku Bridge at that time. With Yunwen's character, once he identified the murderer, he would definitely point it out and attack us immediately. How could he leave silently? So, You are definitely overthinking it!”
"Uh...well..."
Conan thought about it and felt that Hattori Heiji's words were reasonable and convincing, but he was still a little suspicious in his heart. After thinking about Shu Hongming's behavior today, he felt more and more uncomfortable. Then he gritted his teeth and said: "Hattori, give him a message." Send a text message to ask and see what he is doing now!~"
Hattori Heiji responded, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message. Kindaichi next to him suddenly said "Ah!", pointed at a figure on the other side of the road and said: "Look, isn't that Mr. Dirty House?"
"Huh? It's really him!"
Conan and Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up, they looked at each other and followed behind them silently.
At the same time, in the alley near the abandoned factory, Shu Hongming looked at the text message sent by Hattori Heiji on his mobile phone and muttered strangely: "This guy Hattori, why did he send a text message asking me what I was doing out of nowhere? What is this? mean?"
Shu Hongming thought for a while, glanced at Hattori Heizo next to him, continued to help keep the secret, and made up a reply:
"Enjoy the rain!"
…
8:50 pm, near Osaka Castle.
Zaiya Yuhiro walked slowly on the sidewalk, holding his mobile phone in his hand, heading towards the abandoned factory where he had made an appointment with Kyosaka Shigehiko. His eyes glanced around from time to time, observing the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang.
Zaiya Yuhiro quickly opened his phone and saw a text message from his younger brother: "Brother, we didn't find any police following us. It seems like they really retreated. However, we found out that they were investigating the case at the castle tower. Two young men and a child, do you want to find a quiet place to kill them?"
young people? Child?
Yuhiro Zaiya raised his eyebrows and walked forward without changing his expression. After walking quickly around a corner, he took a peek behind him and saw Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Kindaichi hurriedly chasing after him. He narrowed his eyes slightly. Behind his eyes, he continued to walk forward and replied at the same time:
"There are a lot of pedestrians on the road, so it's inconvenient to deal with them. Don't worry about them now. If they dare to follow the abandoned factory, then kill that guy too!"
