"Ta, ta."
"Ta-ta!"
After leaving the president's office, two different footsteps echoed in the quiet corridor of Dongye Building.
Although the sounds sounded similar, the two footsteps felt completely different.
The footsteps in front were very steady, with exactly the same time interval between each footsteps, like some kind of regular rhythm.
In comparison, the footsteps behind them seemed much more panicked, and the clicking sounds were disorganized.
The difference between the two footsteps may also reflect the hearts of their respective owners at this time to a certain extent?
"Officer Sato!"
Behind Shirakawa Kiyoshi, Kananko Shimazaki, who was called out by her, hurriedly caught up with her and asked quickly: "Excuse me, why are you looking for me?"
"Well, a little bit indeed."
The two of them had arrived at a deserted corridor. Shirakawa Kiyo finally stopped, turned around, and looked at Kananko Shimazaki with a smile.
"Is it related to the Moriyama Consortium?" Kananko Shimazaki looked at her, adjusted her breathing slightly, and asked tentatively.
She thought that maybe Conan's fabrication of opening the safe for her allowed this unusual-looking female police officer to see some flaws, so she wanted to find her alone to ask about some relevant matters.
[But Sister Nanzi, if the memory you want to retrieve is a memory that is not good for you, what are you going to do? 】
Suddenly, the words Conan asked her before appeared in Shimazaki Kananko's mind again.
Those fragmentary and abnormal memory fragments resurfaced in his mind again, and there was a trace of hesitation on Shimazaki Kananko's face.
[A memory that is not good for me...]
But soon, she shook her head violently and took a deep breath to calm her breathing.
Regardless of whether it is beneficial or not, she just wants to find her true self.
She was ready for this.
"No, I'm not interested in the affairs of the Moriyama Consortium." Bai Heqing said, taking in her expression with interest.
"Eh?"
His words made Shimazaki Kananko confused.
"Then Officer Sato, you..."
"What I want to ask is something deeper, such as..."
Looking at her puzzled meaningfully, Bai Heqing asked with a smile:
"How did Miss Shimazaki open that safe? For example, what did Miss Shimazaki see in that safe? And for example... how much did Miss Shimazaki recall of her own memory?"
【Eh? 】
The whole person was stunned. Shimazaki Kananzi looked at Shirakawa Kiyoshi in front of him in great surprise.
【Why did she...】
At this moment, she was keenly aware that there seemed to be something wrong with the female police officer in front of her.
"Well, it seems that Ms. Shimazaki didn't understand what I said..."
Bai Heqing raised his hand and touched his chin, thought for a moment, and then asked again with a smile: "How about I ask another question? Miss Shimazaki, have you remembered your true identity?"
There was a dull pain in her temples, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and an inexplicable sense of crisis quickly surged. Kananko Shimazaki subconsciously raised her hands to cover her head, looked at Shirakawa Kiyo warily, and took two steps back.
"……who are you?"
If she was just suspicious just now, she was now completely sure that there was definitely something wrong with the female police officer in front of her.
Those men in black from fragmentary memories suddenly appeared in my mind...
Could it be that this female police officer was also with those men in black?
"Who am I? Well, this is indeed a difficult question to answer..."
With his hands behind his back, Shirakawa Kiyoshi was thinking seriously as he walked towards Shimazaki Kananko.
"After all, to be more serious, I actually have many identities. Of course, the only one that can be related to you, Miss Shimazaki, is that one identity.
However, considering that I have only been in Japan for a short time, and the impression I left on you is not very deep, coupled with your current amnesia, Miss Shimazaki, I am afraid that even if I tell you, you will not be able to remember...
So after thinking about it, I still think that maybe that person’s name is more suitable..."
Saying this, Shirakawa walked up to Shimazaki Kananko, raised his left hand, touched her eyebrows with his index finger, and then said softly:
"Rum."
Buzz——
In an instant, as Shirakawa Kiyoshi said this name, Kananko Shimazaki's mind was filled with intense brain noises. The "thick barrier" that had been shrouding her mind was easily pierced by this name at this moment. break.
"Uh-huh!"
Accompanied by a severe headache, countless memories that were originally wrapped in that "thick barrier" poured out at this moment, pouring into her brain quickly.
"Rum...the organization...is Rum..."
Kneeling on the ground, covering her head, Kananko Shimazaki's originally exquisite facial features gradually became distorted due to the severe headache.
"I am...organizing...monitoring..."
She finally remembered.
Kananko Shimazaki is indeed more than just an ordinary architect.
Behind this dazzling halo, she also has another shady identity.
She belongs to a powerful evil organization and is one of its many rank-and-file members.
A few years ago, she was mobilized by Gin, a senior cadre of this organization, and was transferred to the Moriyama Consortium. She was specifically responsible for monitoring the president of the Moriyama Consortium, and he was also a famous entrepreneur supported by this organization - Moriyama Hiromichi.
Gin is her direct superior, and as far as she knows, the highest-level cadre of this evil organization is called Rum...
Kananko Shimazaki didn't know Rum's specific identity. She only knew that Rum was already in this position when she first entered the organization.
But all this completely changed a few months ago.
Rum was transferred and the new cadre who took over his position was called Regel.
"who are you?"
Raising her head despite the pain, Kananko Shimazaki looked at the female police officer in front of her.
"It seems that you have remembered it, Miss Shimazaki."
Seeing this, Bai Heqing squatted down so that his eyes were level with hers, and said with a smile in a gentle voice:
"Now, let's get acquainted again. My name...is Regel."
"What...!" Shimazaki Kananzi heard this and subconsciously shouted out.
"Shhh."
Bai Heqing raised his hands in time to pinch her cheeks and made a shushing gesture.
"Keep your voice low, don't make any noise."
[Is she Regel? ! 】
Kananko Shimazaki, who had just recovered her memory and whose brain was still a little confused, nodded slightly.
"very good."
Satisfied with her reaction, Bai Heqing smiled and nodded, but did not let go of her cheek.
"Then it's time for us to talk about business."
