On that day, Conan and Hattori Heiji sang together and stayed in Yokohama for a day on the grounds that "I didn't have fun yesterday, so I have to make up for it today."
After dragging on for a day, Mouri Kogoro missed the wine party he had arranged with his friends and had no patience to stay in Yokohama any longer. The children's parents called Dr. Agasa one after another to ask about the time to return to Tokyo, and the children were also thinking about what they had said before. Okay, I want to go to the beach with Dr. Agasa and want to go back in advance to prepare, but Hattori Heiji, Toyama and Ye also have to go back to Osaka, so the group of people dispersed and went back to their homes.
"Huh? Is that client a liar?"
Under the early morning sun, five primary school students were walking on the street, ready to go to the store and buy some things they could use to play at the beach.
"Yes, Uncle Maoli contacted Detective Long. Detective Long said that the other party did find him, but he didn't solve the code, so the other party gave him a sum of money and asked him to act in a scene before recording that part. 'Death' video," Conan said truthfully, "As for Detective Gunda and Detective Motegi, the police have also contacted them. Detective Gunda is in the United States and has not been back to Japan at all recently. Detective Motegi is in Hokkaido with a group of people. The students went to participate in a strange festival. After they received a call from the client, they refused on the grounds of inconvenience. The client said that they were also dead, which was simply a lie to scare Uncle Maori."
"In that case, the client is not very bad!" Yuantai said.
"You can't say that," Hui Yuan Ai wore a blue peaked cap and walked down the street calmly, "If there hadn't been an accident and Uncle Maoli hadn't found the truth, he might not have let us go and put us away. People who hold other people's lives in their hands cannot be said to be good people."
"That's right, and they also robbed the bank and killed an innocent guard, but I always feel that things are not that simple," Mitsuhiko analyzed seriously, "The client was killed, right? Before the police I suspect that the murderer's motive for the murder was to avenge him for killing the detective. But if no detective died, it would not be because of this. I think the robbery suspect might have other accomplices, and the client was killed by that mysterious person. His accomplices were silenced.”
That's right...
Conan silently agreed in his heart and couldn't help but look at the hat on Haiyuan Ai's head with a heavy expression.
They didn't find any suspicious people from surveillance, registration records, etc., and the clues had been cut off long ago.
The only discovery that can be called a gain is the 'summer vacation symptoms' mentioned by hotel employees.
When he was asking the hotel staff about the 'suspicious person', he asked by the way, 'Is there anything strange?', and he actually found something.
At the beginning, he was a chef in the hotel. It is said that when he went to the bathroom, he suddenly became dizzy and lost consciousness. He woke up in the corridor. After returning to the restaurant, he heard other people say that he had helped deliver meals. He still felt it was strange, but there was more than one person. I had seen it, and he did have the habit of helping deliver meals, so I thought he was confused after going to the bathroom because the weather was too hot recently.
Then there are the hotel manager, the security captain of the power supply room and monitoring room, and a cleaning staff. These people are all the same. They suddenly become dizzy somewhere in the hotel and wake up to find themselves in another place. During this time, they They all seemed to have done something that they had no recollection of.
Because the weather has been too hot recently, the air conditioners in the hotel corridors and some places have gone up and down, and what they did was in line with their usual habits. Therefore, people in the hotel felt that the weather was too hot and caused strange heatstroke symptoms, which made these people uncomfortable. Remember what you did when you were unconscious.
If it weren't for Haiyuan's uncertain premonition, he wouldn't have thought of going after the organization, nor would he think these people's "summer vacation symptoms" were strange.
But if these people were really unconscious at that time, what if someone took their place and went out for activities during this period?
The idea sounds creepy, but there's one man who can do it with the ultimate in disguise.
Belmode!
As a chef, you can investigate the food delivery situation on each floor and room; as a hotel manager, you can investigate the hotel check-in and room rental rosters; as a security captain in the power supply room and monitoring room, you can learn from the power supply situation, confirm whether there is an 'abnormal power supply' on a certain floor, confirm whether anyone is using large electronic equipment or whether anyone is hiding somewhere; disguised as a cleaning staff, you can specifically go to a certain corridor on a certain floor, or even It's a room exploration situation.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like someone is deliberately investigating the location of Ito Suehiko, and they have actually investigated it after confirming it in many ways.
In addition, the number of times the security captain showed "summer vacation symptoms" was twice, the first time after the hotel manager, and the second time on the night when the monitoring failure occurred. Then, the first time may be for investigation, The second time was to cause malfunctions in monitoring equipment and procedures.
If that's the case, two months of bank robberies are indeed questionable.
After the chairman of Miyama Trading was caught by the police led by Kidd, he quickly confessed that Masaharu Nishio, Reiko Shimizu, and Suehiko Ito were the robbers who robbed the bank two months ago, and Reiko Shimizu was the mastermind. Chairman Shenshan didn’t know where the stolen money was.
Now that all three robbers are dead, the police have not yet thought about the whereabouts of the money, and there seems to be a black hand behind it all.
Letting people rob a bank, silence them, and swallow the stolen money is very similar to what happened to Miyano Akemi.
That time he recovered the money, but failed to save Miyano Akemi. This time, the robbers were all dead and the money was not recovered. This frustrating and annoying feeling of powerlessness was also similar.
The other party left very few traces and all the investigation clues were cut off. If you want to achieve this step, you must at least start planning the robbery at the beginning or even before it starts. This is also in line with the style of that organization.
However, it was useless to tell the police. Just relying on the 'summer vacation symptoms' and Haiyuan's sense of the situation, there was no way the police could believe what he said.
And because Haiyuan couldn't be sure, because he lacked some basis to support the inference, even he couldn't swear that this was the case. They just had a strong hunch that this matter had something to do with the organization!
And use this as a prerequisite to connect some clues.
If a premonition is used as a prerequisite, it cannot be called 'reasoning', and even if there are acquaintances like Officer Takagi in the police who can temporarily believe them, they don't know where the organization's guys are and where to find evidence.
In addition, there are still many problems in this case.
It is certain that Nishio Shoharu was killed by Shimizu Reiko, but was Ito Suehiko's car accident specifically caused by Shimizu Reiko, or was it planned by that organization?
Is Shimizu Reiko really dead? Did he die at the hands of someone from that organization, or did he commit suicide?
If she is not dead, where is Reiko Shimizu? Will you join that organization?
Also, when Ito Suehiko went to the detectives, did he want them to investigate the truth about Nishio Masaharu's murder, or to investigate the initiator of his car accident? Or is he just complaining and looking for a detective to find out the mastermind behind it, that is, the organization?
Could he have once again missed someone else's 'distress' signal?
Beside, three children were still discussing this matter.
"I heard that the police have already gone to investigate the people next to the guard who died during the robbery," Ayumi said. "They should still suspect that someone was taking revenge."
"It's no wonder," Yuantai half-mooned eyes said, "Because the last three robbers and the client's secretary are all dead, so it's possible that they did bad things and suffered revenge from others."
Conan thought of the incident on Moon Shadow Island, and of Aso Makoto who had released the signal in advance but committed suicide in front of him in the end. He couldn't help but raise his hand to scratch his hair, scratch his hair, scratch his hair in annoyance...
Did the murderer give them another 'death signal' this time? And did they realize it too late?
Haibara Ai didn't want the three children to lose the investigation and be noticed by the organization because of this case, and divert the attention of the three children. "The police will investigate the case. Compared with this, the doctor said that he will take us to the beach tomorrow to catch the sea. Today we will There are a lot of things prepared.”
"That's right," Mitsuhiko took out a small notebook and opened it to read, "Let me take a look... hats to protect the sun. Everyone can just bring the hats they usually wear. Emergency medical kits and emergency medicines, Dr. Ali will Prepare, but we still have to buy a small shovel for digging shells and a bucket for loading shells..."
"Let's build a big sandcastle together, shall we?" Ayumi was also thinking, "Then we should bring a shovel with us."
"Don't forget to prepare sunscreen," Haiyuan Ai looked up at the clear sky, "Tomorrow will be much hotter than today."
"There is another very important thing!" Yuantai stopped with a serious face and turned to look at the shop next to him.
Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Haibara Ai looked over in confusion. After seeing rows of eel rice bento boxes in the store cabinets, they were speechless.
Conan also looked at it curiously, and laughed in his heart. He also realized that he had just gotten into trouble, so he didn't toss his hair anymore, and decided to put the case aside for now, and said with a smile, "The eel bento, it's really Genta's style! "
"Hey, let me go and have a look!" Yuantai ran over happily, lay down in front of the cupboard, and looked at the eel bento in the cupboard carefully, "It seems that every portion is good, but if you are going to catch the sea, you must be prepared. A big portion!”
The others followed, and Ayumi thought about it and said, "If the harvest is good, we can make seafood soup together. Brother Chi will also go, so there is no need to prepare a lunch box, right?"
"Ah, no..." Mitsuhiko turned over his little notebook seriously, "I sent a message yesterday to ask Brother Chi. He said that he is not good at cooking clams, so he went to the place where he went to catch the sea to buy lunch. There is a convenience store nearby, and Recently, many people are taking their children to go swimming during the summer vacation, and there must be a lot of food sold in convenience stores suitable for children."
Ayumi smiled and turned to look at Genta, "Can we buy Genta's eel rice then? The eels in the seaside store should be much bigger than here!"
"Actually, it's almost the same," Conan said. "There are a lot of seafood on the beach, and it's hard to buy them at high prices. If there are eels with larger heads, they will be shipped to Tokyo for sale."
"It's very big," Genta kept lying on the cabinet, staring straight at the eel rice behind the glass, almost drooling, "I really want to try it..."
Conan yawned speechlessly.
Genta, a foodie, is either thinking about tomorrow's lunch or simply greedy.
But then again, Chi Feichi actually said that he is not good at cooking clams... Every time 'Chi Feichi' is associated with 'not good at', he will think of someone who said 'not good at deciphering codes'. It's simply disgusting. To the extreme!
