Metropolitan Police Department, parking lot.
There was less than half an hour until the search meeting was to be held.
Ye Gengyi once again met Belmode who was wearing a disguised face:
"You really are everywhere."
"Come and help him check the stability of the mask."
Belmod gestured to the leather bag in his hand and asked:
"But... doesn't it matter? If you don't look for the memory card at this time, when Mizutani Kosuke's information is known to the police, you may not be able to get it before them."
Originally, it was according to the tacit plan between her and Ye Geng.
The plan of action should be for Ye Gengyi to inform himself after finding the memory card storing the undercover list before Ireland.
Next, Matsumoto Kiyonaga's detention location will be accidentally exposed.
In this way, Ireland, which was a few steps behind the police in grasping the news, would naturally become the target of being chased and intercepted by the police.
And when it comes to dealing with such a guy who possesses organizational information but has obvious betrayal intentions, after getting that person's approval last night, there is no need to guess what Gin will do.
But...if icewine doesn't find the memory card, or the memory card is obtained by Ireland first.
Even if he sees the right time and lets Matsumoto Kiyonaga go, as long as Ireland can escape from the police encirclement and reveal that Edogawa Conan is Kudo Shinichi...
Will Gin kill people before then?
Is it possible that the lives of Cool Guy and Angel should be gambled on Gin's bloodthirsty nature?
If the target was someone else, Belmode might be able to give a positive answer.
But now...she is a little unsure.
Here, although Ye Gengyi could probably guess the reason why Belmod asked him this question, if he could fully hear what she was thinking just now, he would still sneer.
All actions are based on the premise that Conan will not be harmed?
What about yourself?
There are undercover agents in the Metropolitan Police Department, and they can't come up with many constructive plans. Can you just take it as a sign that you're not good at this and just avoid the search meeting?
Even if Matsumoto Kiyonaga is finally confirmed to be from Ireland, his abnormal behavior during this period is still difficult to explain.
You must know that after the police carried out the arrest operation yesterday, he had to leave the team without authorization. It is already very suspicious to take it out and magnify it.
Do it again today?
I'm afraid this is such an aboveboard behavior that all the participating detectives will be regarded as idiots. Only real idiots would do it.
Ha... Anyway, the memory is stuck in his own hands. Even if Ireland arrests Kazuki Motojo and tortures him, nothing will change.
Of course, it was impossible for Ye Gengyi to tell Belmode these words, but the only thing he could say was:
"Do you know where the murderer intended to place his last victim at the grave?"
Icewine indeed concealed some information... Belmod's eyes narrowed slightly and asked:
"where is it?"
"I don't know either, but once Ireland knows about it, it will definitely run over obediently."
Ye Gengyi explained: "This is also the reason why I came to join the search meeting."
fraud……
That's right, how could icewine let himself know that he was deliberately targeting Ireland?
Belmod raised his eyebrows and said nothing, leaving a sentence of "I'll wait for your good news" before leaving.
Ha, it seems that even if we cooperate temporarily, we cannot take this woman lightly. If we want her not to deal with Little Radar in the future, we should start with Conan.
Of course, the premise is that you have to get through this incident first...
Ye Gengyi spread his thoughts at will.
In fact, I will come to this search meeting, except for the above-mentioned reasons.
Another point is that he cannot reveal that the memory card was taken away by him.
In this way, since torture cannot be used to make Kazuki Motogami reveal the movements of Mizutani Kosuke, there are only two ways left to complete the plan to clear Ireland.
First, in the subsequent search meeting, continue to keep a low profile, only offer opinions at appropriate times, and gradually help the police deduce the context of the entire case.
Second, he acted in a high-profile manner and presented the intelligence he had collected from Kazuki Motojo with superb reasoning, making Ireland suspect that the undercover list had fallen into his hands.
Then use your body as bait to lead the next actions.
Although this can take the initiative, the disadvantages are equally obvious.
The ultimate goal of both methods is to delay time and thus to destroy Ireland's image of incompetence and ulterior motives in this task.
However, Belmod would be more happy to see him adopt the second approach, right?
That can't be what she wants...
…
It was 3 o'clock, and the search meeting was held on time.
Shiratori Rensaburo did not show off and directly reported his findings:
"Based on our investigation, we found that seven victims, including Shindo Sumire, all went to Kyoto on July 7 of the year before last."
Yokomori Jugo held his chin with one hand and analyzed:
"In other words, the words 'Qixi' and 'King' heard by the witnesses refer to Qixi Festival and Kyoto."
"It's probably not a coincidence that I chose this day specifically." Ye Gengyi added nonsensically.
"I have asked Shiratori to contact the criminal police in Kyoto to help investigate what happened to them in Kyoto at that time."
Ireland lowered his head and looked at the information in his hand:
"The problem now is still the message left by the prisoner on the mahjong tiles, and the meaning of the mahjong tiles themselves."
"Now only the circle on the bottom left of the seven tubes has not been painted red."
Ogino Ayami also had nothing to say and added: "So, there should be another target for the serial murderer."
"Speaking of which, today is July 7th..." Yamato Gansuke murmured in a low voice.
"That is to say, the possibility that the last person will be killed today is very high!" Yamamura Cao felt that he had discovered a blind spot.
"But... who exactly is he planning to kill, and where is he planning to commit the murder?" Mumu Shisan scratched his head.
Ireland:"……"
MD, these guys are either reporting dates or reading from the information, can't they say something useful? !
"Eh?! I figured it out!"
At this moment, a certain tool who had not spoken since the beginning of the meeting suddenly screamed strangely.
Before everyone could cast inquiring glances.
Mouri Kogoro had already picked up the information and walked quickly to the whiteboard. He picked up the water-based pen and was about to connect the crime scenes.
oh? Has it been discovered yet...
Ye Gengyi's eyes flashed with a strange color.
In fact, when he entered the venue, he noticed the map hanging on the whiteboard and the seven circles on the map with equal shapes of the North Star and the Big Dipper.
Of course, since only six of the Big Dipper are marked, if you don't put aside the North Star as an association, sometimes it is easy to fall into misunderstandings.
But Ye Gengyi really didn't expect that the person who discovered this clue would be Maori Kogoro...
As a result, the next second, his idea was nipped in the bud.
I saw Mouri Kogoro, not only connected the North Star with the six Big Dipper stars, but also said in a serious manner:
"This is the Lake Ashi Monster that is comparable to the Loch Ness Monster - Luxi!"
