Conan: Another Famous Detective

Two days later, Akira Hanamiya received a call from Kogoro Mori.

"Both Kuroda and Kazami are awake. We plan to question him around three o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay, we will be there on time." Yu Gongming replied.

He informed the other companions of the news. The Kudo siblings and Wakasa immediately expressed their intention to go to observe, while the Akai family expressed their wish to observe remotely.

This was just a matter of getting a listening device, and it was not difficult to operate. Yu Gongming agreed without much hesitation.

Three o'clock in the afternoon, Tottori Municipal Hospital, high-end ward.

Hagumi Teru, Mouri Kogoro, Haminiya Akira, the Kudo siblings and Wakasa walked in one after another.

In the ward, Feng Jian and Kuroda were sitting on the hospital bed respectively, looking at the group of people with a slightly scrutinizing look.

"Manager Kuroda, Kazami Police Department." Teru Hanomiya spoke first: "We are members of the Tokyo Special Investigation Team, and this is my ID."

Kuroda took the document and looked down at it for a while, confirming that it was not a forgery, and then handed the document back to Hagumi Teru: "It turns out to be Police Inspector Fujita, whom I have admired for a long time."

Hanomiya Teru nodded in return and said: "We are here to visit you two on behalf of the Tottori Police and the Tokyo Special Investigation Team. Originally, the criminal minister Odagiri was also coming, but there were too many people watching him, so he couldn't do it without permission. When I go out, I can only express my condolences through video calls.”

As he spoke, Hagumi took out a tablet and opened it. After a while, Odagiri Toshiro appeared on the screen.

Odagiri Toshiro smiled slightly: "Kuroda, Kazami, congratulations on your safe return!"

Seeing this, Kuroda didn't reply immediately. His eyes flickered slightly before he said, "The wine is so beautiful and the flowers are beautiful. It's a good time to enjoy the scenery."

Everyone in the ward was startled, but Odagiri Toshiro on the other side of the screen smiled slightly and immediately replied: "Drinking and folding flowers can show your leisurely and elegant taste."

Hearing this, Kuroda breathed a sigh of relief, and the secret code was matched. It was indeed Minister Odagiri himself in front of him, so there was no problem with the identity of these people in the ward.

He looked at everyone in the ward: "Sorry, I am in the heart of the enemy, so I have to act with caution. Don't blame me."

"I understand." Haguang Hui replied calmly. They were all colleagues, so he naturally understood that Kuroda's actions were understandable.

After a pause, Haguang Hui continued: "You two have just woken up, so you shouldn't disturb them too much, but things are different now. We urgently need to find out the causes and consequences of your disappearance. We hope that you two can tell the truth."

Kuroda shook his head slightly: "It doesn't matter. If you have any questions, you can ask them. We will tell you everything we know."

"Chief Kuroda means what I mean." Feng Jian also said.

Yu Gonghui nodded: "Well, since you two have no objections, I won't beat around the bush and ask you to tell you the story of the missing person."

"Okay." Kuroda responded, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he turned his head slightly and looked at the door of the ward.

Haguang Hui noticed Kuroda's gaze and said, "We have checked both inside and outside the ward, and our people are watching at the door. There is no need to worry about the walls having ears."

Hearing this, Kuroda nodded secretly in his heart. It was indeed not easy for him and Feng Jian to rescue him and Feng Jian from the hands of the organization.

He pondered for a while and then said, "You should already know that Minister Odagiri and we accepted the director's order and came to investigate the [yakuza fire] incident that occurred at the Tottori Morikawa Pharmaceutical Factory some time ago."

"We already know this." Haguang Hui affirmed this.

Hearing this, Kuroda continued: "In fact, this is just a cover. Our missions are actually two."

"First, reintegrate the forces of the Tottori police and confirm who can be used and who have been infiltrated by the organization. Minister Odagiri is mainly responsible for this matter. Kazami and I will provide some help depending on the situation."

"In other words, are you mainly focusing on another task?" Haguang Hui asked at the right time.

"Yes." Kuroda replied: "The mission of Kazumi and I is to find important information hidden somewhere in Tottori, Rum, the former second-in-command of the black organization."

"Important information? How important is it?" Haguang Hui asked.

"According to Rum, it is about the locations of the various secret bases of the Tottori organization; detailed information about the underground industrial chains involved; and evidence of crimes over the years by apparently legitimate companies related to the organization, and even... about Information about the boss of the organization that has always been invisible!"

When everyone heard this, their expressions became serious.

Haguang Hui's eyes flashed slightly and he said, "I remember it has been some time since Rum was arrested, right? Is it possible that this information is out of date?"

"I can't be sure." Kuroda shook his head and said: "According to Rum, this information has been collected secretly by him over the years, and much of the collection work has been covered up in reasonable actions."

"At least he thinks that even the organization BOSS doesn't know that he collected and sorted out this information and hid it."

"Were you kidnapped by the organization while searching for information?" Haguang Hui asked.

"Yes." Kuroda replied: "We already knew the location where Rum hid the information from the beginning, but when we first arrived in Tottori, we were bound to be monitored by the organization's eyes and ears, so we did not go to those locations to search from the beginning."

"For a period of time after that, Kazami and I wandered around Tottori City in the name of investigation, stopping at irregular places. Until I felt the time was right, I went to several places mentioned by Rum and got the That information."

"We have been very careful, but when we went to get the last piece of information, they still discovered something unusual."

"Having noticed their tracking, it is naturally impossible for us to take them to the intelligence hiding place, so we plan to return to the headquarters first and discuss countermeasures with Director Odagiri."

"Unexpectedly, they had set an ambush on the road. We were knocked unconscious by them without noticing. When we woke up, we were already in a basement."

"They also unexpectedly asked us if we had found anything. I guessed from their words that they probably didn't know about the intelligence yet, but they just felt that our behavior was abnormal. So we have been dealing with them, but we also Inevitably, they were tortured to extract confessions.”

"The organization probably hasn't learned about this yet, right?" Haguang Hui asked.

"No, I refused to let go until death. Feng Jian was just following orders and didn't know much about the inside story." Kuroda replied.

"Where is the information that has been obtained now?" Haguang Hui asked.

"All the information has been handed over to Minister Odagiri, only the last piece of information is missing." Kuroda replied.

Hanemiya Teru couldn't help but look at Odagiri on the other side of the screen.

"Yes, that information is currently in my custody. Because the situation was unclear, I temporarily concealed the matter."

"Understood." Haguang Teru nodded slightly, then looked at Kuroda: "Then, can you tell us the whereabouts of the last piece of information?"
