Conan’s Toast Does Not Eat Fine Wine

Chapter 1230: Chasing the Dog

Remember [New] for a second,! Kogoro Mori's first stop was Rick Hawkins' ex-girlfriend, the first love who abandoned him.

Statistics show that most homicides are committed by people known to the deceased, with a higher percentage killing spouses. Although women are naturally weak in physical strength, killing their husbands is not as much as killing their wives, but it is still not ruled out that some ruthless women make up for their weaknesses by other means, such as poisoning or hiring murderers to kill.

Rick Hawkins' ex-girlfriend is named Benita Galli, and Kogoro Maori investigates her working at a coffee shop near Lincoln Square.

"Benita Galli has sufficient motives for committing the crime." In the corner of the cafe, Kogoro Mouri said to Mourilan and Conan Edogawa under the cover of a coffee cup, "The object of her ignorance back then became It must be a bad feeling to be the fifth diamond king who makes her unable to climb high. And I also found out that she and Rick Hawkins' current wife also know each other, and it is not ruled out that she has received greater stimulation from her. "

Maori Kogoro's voice was a little louder, and Maori Lan quickly reminded: "Dad, be careful, there must be a lot of regular customers in this kind of coffee shop, be careful they tell Benita what the detective is investigating!

"And what you said just now is just your own guess. Benita doesn't necessarily resent Mr. Rick for this reason, right? Even the court can't convict a suspect without direct evidence."

Maurilan looked at the busy figure wearing an apron behind the counter, and sighed: "I think that Miss Benita is very gentle. When I ordered just now, she reminded me that espresso and cinnamon are great."

"That's just her job, right?" Conan was helpless, "and there are actually many cases in history that were judged on the basis of circumstantial evidence. This kind of thing has more room for manipulation under the jury system."

Mao Lilan glanced at Conan lightly, she ensured that her eyes and expressions were normal, but Conan suddenly shivered and fell silent.

This reaction is very similar to the new one...

No no no!

Soon Maurilan denied himself.

Because this reaction is also very Conan.

In fact, the two of them are very similar in many places. In addition, Xinyi has been absent during this period of time, and Mao Lilan is almost unable to distinguish the two.

When Conan grows up and Shinichi doesn't get too old, I'm afraid she will really call Shinichi's name at Conan, right?

Seems pretty interesting up to that point.

Conan felt that Maurilan's smile was a little strange, and this strangeness made him more silent.

At such times he had better not make any noise.

The surroundings of Mouri Kogoro suddenly became quiet. He looked at this and then at that, not knowing what happened to Xiaolan and Conan.

"Mr. Maury!"

A sentence of standard Japanese suddenly burst into the quiet and peaceful space.

Uncle Maori, who is used to listening to English in recent days, looked up in surprise, and then he recognized a familiar face.

"Oh, who are you... Who are you?" After thinking for a long time without remembering the other party's name, Kogoro Mori smiled a little embarrassedly.

It was Maurilan who recognized it immediately: "Have we met in Nagano Prefecture before?"

"Yes." The man nodded.

"Ha, Nagano?" Kogoro Mori was stunned.

"In the case of the red wall, Mr. Asano and the police department were both injured. When we went to the hospital to pick up Mr. Asano, we met the criminal outside the ward!" Mo Lilan asked, "Are you the criminal Ogawa Yumatsu? ?"

There was a hint of surprise in the man's eyes, and then he laughed: "I didn't expect you to remember my name."

Hearing Ogawa Yumatsu's name, Mouri Kogoro and Conan also remembered. It's just that to them, Ogawa Yusong is just an ordinary police officer in an ordinary case, and no one would have thought that they could meet again in a foreign country.

Mouri Kogoro asked strangely, "Ogawa, why did you come to the United States?"

Uncle Maori is also a former criminal who has worked in the Metropolitan Police Department for a period of time, and has a certain understanding of the rules and regulations of the Metropolitan Police Department. Although the Metropolitan Police Department does not restrict police officers from traveling abroad, they need to report to the chief of their department before leaving and after returning, which is generally not as convenient as ordinary people. Therefore, non-essential not leaving the country is basically a tacit rule of the Metropolitan Police Department.

The Metropolitan Police Department is like this, presumably the local police stations will not be too different.

In this regard, Ogawa Yumatsu's answer was very natural: "It was a business trip, and there was intelligence that some terrorists were preparing to detonate bombs in Tokyo. The Metropolitan Police Department suspected that these events may be related to the case on Washington's side. But the Metropolitan Police Department's Everyone was too busy to leave, and the Zhufu Police Department sent me over to investigate."

Maori Kogoro suddenly became serious: "So the Washington bombing is indeed a terrorist attack?"

"Ah, this..." Ogawa Yumatsu wondered, "These are just our guesses, and there is no evidence yet. And the bombing in Washington is so big, I heard that imitations have occurred in many places, it is difficult to say the cause of these incidents. Is there a definite connection between them?"

He didn't want to mislead Mouri Kogoro and Conan's investigation because of a lie of his own.

As for why he lied—

After all, even Ogawa Yumatsu's identity is fake!

If Nobuhan wants to create an opportunity to meet the protagonists by chance, and gain trust as soon as possible, he must pick an identity that the protagonists know, preferably one that will not be exposed in the future.

After thinking about it, he finally picked Ogawa Yusong, a character who had little contact with Conan and others but naturally had trust because of his identity.

The more important point is that Shinfan once successfully played Ogawa Yusong under the eyes of his elder brother. Since Zhufu Gaoming can be deceived, it should be easier to fool a few unfamiliar people?

"Then, why are you in America, Mr. Mori?" Nobuyoshi asked in Ogawa Yumatsu's voice with a slight Nagano accent.

"Ah, we are here to investigate a client. The client has received a lot of phone calls and letters threatening his life." Kogoro Mori didn't seem to have the self-consciousness that as a detective, he should keep the client's secret. He raised his chin and turned towards Penny. Ta Galli's direction swung,

"That woman, my first suspect, is Benita Galli, the client's ex-girlfriend."

Nobunaga gave Mouri Kogoro a strange look: "Isn't it more convenient to directly investigate the source of the threatening calls and letters?"

"Ah?" Mouri Kogoro was stunned.

Conan's expression was similar to his.

damn it! Because he encountered too many examples of IP address hiding before, he subconsciously ignored this most basic method.

At the same time, however, another problem arose.

Conan reluctantly said to Shinfan: "Ogawa Criminal, have you forgotten that we are in the United States? Except for the police, no one else has the authority to investigate communication records."

"Anyway, let's ask first, even if we can't investigate the sender of the mail, what about the letter? The letter always has a sender, right? If there is no sender, you can tell which city it came from from the postmark, right? "

"That Benita..."

"It's the most inadvisable way to ask the suspect directly. It's easy to startle the snake. What if that person gets provoked and starts to do something to your client? Hourly protection by the client's side."

"But…"

"My car is parked outside, I'll take you to the entrusted person."

In this way, Xinfan used his great tricks and successfully coaxed the Maori family into the car.

It was only then that Conan showed a stunned look.

Wait, what the **** is this criminal Xiaochuan doing here? Doesn't he also have a job, why does he walk with them so naturally?

And why should they listen to a guy who is basically a stranger?

This feeling made Conan feel a little familiar.

He looked at Ogawa Yumatsu who was driving seriously through the rearview mirror.

Anyway, he can't tell if this person has a disguise. In other words, people who understand disguise in this world should not have a bad street, right? If it was Mr. Asano in the past, he would have been able to do such a thing, but now...

Conan shook his head, temporarily believing Ogawa Yumatsu's words.

Half an hour later, under the guidance of Kogoro Mouri, Nobunaga drove the car to a high-end residential area.

Rick Hawkins' house is located in it.

Mouri Kogoro knocked on the door, but no one answered.

"Isn't Mr. Hawkins at home? Mr. Rick Hawkins! I'm Maori!"

The whole house was silent, not only Rick was not at home, but his wife and children seemed to be absent.

"Will they still be in the company at this time?" Maolilan speculated.

Relying on his small figure, Conan easily climbed over the fence and ran to the backyard.

Mouri Kogoro wanted to stop but he didn't. He could only be blocked by the fence and was incompetent and furious: "Hey! Conan! It's very impolite to break into someone's house casually. Come out!"

Seeing that the reprimand was ineffective, Kogoro Mouri thought that children are more afraid of police uncles, so he turned to look at the only current detective, Ogawa Yumatsu.

However-

"The client's mailbox is unlocked, and there are some advertisements in it..." Nobuman said while burying his head in checking the mailbox.

Maori Kogoro:"…"

Can this guy really be a cop?

Soon Conan came back, and with him came a dirty dog.

Conan and the dog got out from the gap in the fence.

"What is this?" Mori Kogoro frowned.

"A dog." Conan replied obediently.

Maori Kogoro:"…"

"boom-"

Obviously, Conan's head was hit again.

"Didn't I know it was a dog? I'm asking you why there's a dirty dog ​​in Mr. Rick's backyard and why you brought it out!"

Conan hugged his head and said, "I didn't want to bring it out, but it insisted on following me."

The scene in front of him was so naive that Shinfan couldn't bear to look directly. Instead of taking care of one person, one child and one dog, he took out all the letters in the mailbox.

"Criminal Xiaochuan, what are you doing?" Mao Lilan asked suspiciously.

"Since the client has received so many threatening letters before, maybe there are still some." Xinfan didn't want to take the risk and come out just for nothing, and subconsciously told him that Rick Hawkins, the client, must be related to the organization.

Half a minute later, Shinfan really found a letter with no postmark, no stamp, and no address in a pile of advertising letters.

Seeing the letter, Mao Lilan said disappointedly: "If there is nothing, we have no way of knowing the sender of the letter."

Nobuman was not too disappointed by this: "This is a smart move. It's just that since he can personally deliver the letter to the client's mailbox, at least it means that he lives not far from here. And like this kind of community, every household Everyone knows each other well, and it might be helpful to ask the neighbors.”

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The dog in Conan's arms suddenly turned on barking mode.

Xinfan frowned and reminded: "Take care of your dog, little brother, it will attract the attention of the neighbors."

"It's not my dog!" Conan's argument was drowned out in the barking.

Conan thought that the dog who took the initiative to get close to him was a good dog, but he didn't expect it to suddenly struggle violently, use all his strength to break free from his embrace, and ran to the side of the road.

"Oops!" Conan scolded secretly, hurriedly chasing after him.

Nobufan expressed difficulty in understanding: "Didn't he say it wasn't his dog, why did he chase it?"

Mao Lilan was helpless: "Maybe... because the dog was brought out by him?"

Nobunaga looked back at the fence: "This kind of gap, even if there is no Conan, can it come out by itself?"

In any case, the investigation itself is full of uncertainties, and Nobunaga and the others can't let Conan get lost. So they had to put aside their plans to ask the neighbors for the time being, and chased in the direction where the dog fled.

Nobunaga was chasing the dog happily on this side, but the FBI investigation on the other side was at a deadlock.

"They're still in the emergency room, but you tell me they can't go on?!"

In the hospital, Arianne Swan looked at the person in front of him with red eyes and asked angrily, "The criminal is there, we have already found the clue, isn't it?!"

"This is the order above, we can only execute it." The fbi opposite him said so.

Of course, this kind of reason cannot satisfy Arianne, he said loudly: "I'll go to them to clarify the theory!"

A palm fell on Ariane's shoulder, and James Black's voice sounded: "Calm down, Arianne. No matter who you look for, the result is the same."

"Why?!" Arianne was extremely disappointed.

Never had he felt so useless as now. He did everything he could to become the fbi, and later left the fbi for revenge. Is it because he was powerless again and again?

"Because according to our investigation, the bomb used by the murderer is the same batch of arms that the Tense Group just shipped to the United States not long ago."

Ariane was slightly startled: "If that's the case, then sue tense! Even they can't ignore the evidence, right?!"

James Black looked at him and seemed to be unable to continue: "Shortly when the arms entered, the tense reported the theft, so we have no evidence to prove it, although that is the truth."
