"I don't care what method you use, in short, I must see my son back today!
"And that person, my husband said that you have caught the doctor who is a suspected accomplice, right? Give him to me, and I will ask him now where my son is!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, please calm down, calm down. Mr. Takasugi is already discussing rescue matters with Minister Odagiri, and it will be concluded soon——"
"Calm down? My son is kidnapped now and you tell me to calm down? I shouldn't have agreed to that Matsumoto Kiyonaga to monitor him in the first place! What's the use of him?!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, in fact, the Matsumoto Police Department was notified that their daughter was critically ill. They were so anxious that they failed to pay attention and were ambushed by the criminals in advance."
"So? Since you found out that the call was from the hospital, why didn't you hand over the doctor to me?!"
"Mrs. Takasugi, Natsuki Chuan is not your future daughter-in-law's attending doctor. He was only on duty that night. The calls to your son and the Matsumoto Police Department were indeed notified by the hospital after they discovered that the patient was critically ill... …”
The noisy office area of the third department, the lady who was so impatient that she wanted to hand him over to my mother to torture him several times but did not say it due to her external identity and image, the eyes that kept wiping sweat, and the one who was completely unable to intervene. Mouri Kogoro spoke up.
This was what they saw when Katsumi Uehara and Miwako Sato came back in the afternoon.
It wasn't until the unwanted lady finally left with a bad look on her face that Megure Thirteen breathed a sigh of relief: "Compared to Mrs. Suzuki, Mrs. Takasugi is really..."
The following words were not spoken, but Mouri Kogoro also understood what his former colleague meant.
Compared to Suzuki Tomoko, who still pays attention to restraint, this Takasugi's character is indeed a bit worse.
"Police department, what's going on?"
"That's Mrs. Takasugi. She wants to leave Xia Muchuan Zhiye." Seeing his subordinate return, Memu Shisan simply explained, and the two of them understood instantly.
The wife of the consortium leader came to ask for someone in person, and the meaning behind this was self-evident.
"Mr. Suzuki and Mr. Takasugi are currently discussing countermeasures with Inspector Odagiri. This case is no longer ours to make the decision."
Toshiro Odagiri, the head of the Criminal Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, with the title of Chief Inspector, is a true police boss.
Mumu Shisan sighed and put his hands on his round waist: "But Xia Muchuanzhi doesn't seem to be afraid that people from the consortium will do anything to him, or in other words, he doesn't seem to be afraid of this at all."
"However, the key now is that we don't know why the prisoner wanted to kidnap Toshihiko Takasugi and Ayako Suzuki. According to Mrs. Takasugi and Mrs. Suzuki, they have not received the prisoner's blackmail text message yet."
Mouri Kogoro on the side was talking, but he noticed that the female policeman standing next to Uehara Katsumi looked at him with a look that seemed to contain a little...suspiciousness?
"Detective Mori, why did you go to Miyazawa Yuka's house this morning?" Due to the fact that there have been a lot of criminals recently using the police to verify their alibi, Miwako Sato still can't let go of her suspicion of the former detective.
Mouri Kogoro, who instantly understood what she meant, told the truth: "I received her email notification last night asking me to come over to talk about something. She made an appointment with me around seven o'clock in the evening."
Miyazawa Yuka is the employer and he is the detective. The employer wants to talk about something and gives a time, so he, the paid private detective, must be there on time.
This makes sense.
Unfortunately, this employer seems to be one of the murderers now.
the other side.
Conan, who was standing under the blackboard, was looking up at the page, which had a lot more content and photos than the last time. After hearing Sato Miwako's question, he couldn't help but glance to the left and sighed secretly:
It can be seen that there are already people in the police who are suspicious of all the participants in this case. If this continues, it is difficult to guarantee that the Suzuki family and the Takasugi family will not also come to question Uncle Mori...
Even though Xiaolan and Yuanzi are good friends who have played together since childhood.
Thinking of this, Conan, who had his hands in his pockets, couldn't help but turn his head and look to the right. Xiaolan, who was holding Sonoko's arm, was comforting her in a low voice.
"In short, the top priority now is to find out the whereabouts of Takasugi Toshihiko and Suzuki Ayako as soon as possible. If the prisoners want to blackmail, they will definitely find a time to call today."
Mumu Shisan, who had lost the highest command of the case, coughed and lectured his returning subordinates with a solemn face: "This will be a multi-department coordinated operation, do you understand?!"
"learn!"
"..."
Staring at Katsumi Uehara who was in the police team, Conan, who was standing under the blackboard, raised his head again and stared at the information on the blackboard.
At the moment, he didn't care whether this person would notice something was wrong. Saving people was more important.
The eldest son and daughter of the consortium were kidnapped. The police dispatched must be eager to dig up all the land in Tokyo to find it. The prisoner could not have imagined the consequences.
And if almost the entire Tokyo police force is used to conduct a blanket search...
Conan frowned: This means that the prisoner does not have much time left, which means that Toshihiko Takasugi and Ayako Suzuki are in danger now.
Also, why did Miyazawa Yuka deliberately decorate the living room to have the same characteristics as the other two crime locations before leaving?
Looking at the newly posted photos of the scene and the newly written information posted by the police, Conan, who has always had a keen sense of smell, felt that something was wrong.
Intimidating the police?
Or is it a demonstration against the police like the one at Miwa Central Hospital?
besides……
There was no mystery this time. Conan, who was in the same predicament as the police, was lost in thought. He stood up on tiptoes as if no one else was around, reached out and took down the photos that had been posted not long ago, held them in his hands, and lowered his head in thought.
What exactly does this release of Masked Superman mean?
Mao Lilan, who was still comforting her best friend, happened to witness the extremely adult behavior of the child living in her home again, and her brows instantly wrinkled...
Ring ring ring!
"Mom? Well, okay, I understand..."
Beside Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko stood up after answering the phone and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced a smile to her best friend: "Lan, I have to go back."
"But Sonoko, you are in this state now..."
"My parents are waiting for me downstairs. It's okay, thank you." The eyebrows of the usually careless second lady of the Suzuki family were filled with a heart-wrenching weakness.
"The police department went to Tedan High School and confirmed again. The deceased Sakurako Kirino had not appeared in school 13 days ago. After asking many people, it was clear that her father asked for leave.
"In addition, during this re-visit investigation, we found out that there is another student who has also not been seen in school since 13 days ago, and his father also came forward to ask for leave."
Suddenly, Takagi Sheba, who hurriedly opened the door and entered, attracted the attention of many people.
Hearing this, Mu Mu Shisan frowned: "There is another one? Is there another body of the prisoner that we haven't discovered? Who is it?"
"Kudo Shinichi."
"What did you say?! You mean Brother Kudo was also killed?!"
Almost instantly, Mu Mu Thirteen and the horrified Mao Lilan stood up from their chairs at the same time, staring intently at Takagi Wataru who was reporting——
"Ah sneeze!"
Edogawa Conan, who had become the victim inexplicably, pinched the photo in his hand and sneezed hard.
"Um...Brother Shinichi was not killed. He just went to the United States to investigate the case. He called me two days ago. How could he be killed? Now, are you right, Sister Xiaolan?"
Seeing that the direction of the investigation might even turn to him, Conan hurriedly acted innocent and did not forget to drag Xiaolan along with him.
Looking at Conan who was suddenly squirming, Mao Lilan felt more and more strange as she recalled that she had indeed received a call from Shinichi a few days ago.
