Gold dust in the world of science

"What! This is absolutely impossible!"

Hattori Heiji, who received a call from Maori Kogoro and others, was very unbelievable. He glanced at Sakata Yusuke who was busy at the crime scene. He could not imagine that the other party would be the murderer of this case.

"OK, I got it. I'll wait here with him."

After hanging up the phone, he saw the photo sent by Sakin. Looking at the photo of Inaba Tetsuji, he was silent.

As a detective, he knew what this meant. If the other party was indeed related to Sakata Yusuke, then the possibility of his crime would increase dramatically.

But it must not be you!

Now, he could only hope that the other eye-catching person in the photo - Numabuchi Kiichiro, was the murderer of this case.

""Brother Heiji!"

Looking at Yusuke Sakata who was waving at him, Hattori Heiji smiled,"Officer Sakata, Uncle Otaki said that there has been a huge breakthrough in the case, and the murderer can basically be identified as Kiichiro Numabuchi."

"Kiichiro Numabuchi?"

Hearing his words, Yusuke Sakata was very surprised,"Is it the wanted robber?" Hattori Heiji nodded,"It is said that a photo of several dead people, Kiichiro Numabuchi and Councillor Goji from 20 years ago was found.

Also, let's go to Councillor Goji now, there should be a breakthrough."

On the Sakin side, they were also following Officer Otaki to return to Tojiri Police Station, but halfway through, Officer Otaki received a phone call and was forced to change direction.

"What! You said you found the wanted car of Kiichiro on Mino Mountain?

Okay, I'll be there right away!"

Kiichiro Numabuchi, regardless of whether he is related to the current case or not, is a person who must be arrested.

Officer Otaki first opened the car window and installed an alarm on the roof, then said apologetically:"Mr. Mori, I'm so sorry, I'm afraid your dinner tonight will have to be postponed again. We have to go somewhere now."

At the foot of Mino Mountain

"I'll ask someone to take you to the police station. I'm so sorry."

After saying that, Officer Otaki quickly walked towards the police car at the foot of the mountain.

Maori Kogoro said with some confusion:"That Kiichiro is the guy we just saw in the photo, the recently wanted murderer who fled with a gun."

Sakin nodded,"It should be him. I heard that he recently fled to Osaka, and Osaka attaches great importance to him."

Speaking of which,"Where is that kid Conan?"

As he was speaking, Maori Kogoro suddenly found that Conan was missing.

After taking a look at the open door on the right rear side and looking at Sakin, Maori Kogoro's forehead was faintly bulging with blue veins.

""Conan!"

Soon after, a police officer looked at the empty car in front of him and fell into deep thought.

There was no way, they could figure out with their toes that Conan must have followed Officer Otaki up to Minoh Mountain. For Conan's safety, the two had to get out of the car and follow him.

……

"What's the situation?"

The police officer who was searching turned around and saw Officer Otaki and reported respectfully.

"Officer Otaki, we only found this car buried in the bushes, but we didn't find Kiichiro."

Otaki Goro glanced at the wooden house not far away,"What is that wooden house?""

"We've just sent people to check, and found nothing!"

Officer Otaki walked towards the direction of the wooden house.

Behind him, the police officer was very distressed,"Could he have abandoned the car and ran away somewhere?"

Before Otaki Goro could say anything, a voice rejected his guess.

"You are wrong, he is in there!"

Seeing Conan suddenly appear, everyone was panicked.

Otaki Goro looked at him in surprise,"Little brother, when did you come?"

But he walked aside,"Come here and take a look!"

There was an iron bucket there.

"In fact, I only knew about this after I found the bucket buried in the grass.

You see, in addition to the convenience store receipts from five days ago and three days ago, there are also labels for the bento sold by the convenience store that expire today.

No matter how hard you think about it, there won’t be people eating convenience store bento here every day, right?"

Although it makes sense, Officer Otaki still smiled,"But little brother, if the wanted person showed up in the convenience store, he would have been discovered."

Looking at the wooden house in front of him, Conan's tone gradually became serious,"There should be someone else who went to buy things, and someone must be protecting this person on purpose."

Officer Otaki and several policemen beside him looked at each other for a few seconds, and then decided to search the wooden house, but they found nothing.

Finally, with the help of Conan, they found Kiichiro Numabuchi handcuffed to the corner in the compartment on the roof.

Looking at the handcuffs on his hands, Conan and Goro Otaki's faces darkened.

The thing they least wanted to believe still happened.

When escorting Kiichiro Numabuchi, he fell and knocked over a bunch of things.

After getting up, he held a dagger in his hand, waved it to drive away the police, and ran towards the door, where Conan was standing.

"Get out of my way!"

Numabuchi Kiichiro showed a fierce look on his face and was about to stab him.

However, before he could reach the door, a chip shot straight into his chest. As a result,

Kiichiro Numabuchi was knocked to the ground.

Then, the police rushed over and subdued him.

"I said, my friend, how many times have I helped you?"

Looking at Conan in front of him, Shajin showed a half-smile.

"Um, this……"

On the side, Maori Kogoro's ruthless iron fist had been raised, and it hit Conan's big head mercilessly."You are such a worry, you said that if it wasn't for the gold dust in time, you would be finished, don't you know!"

Looking at Conan who was holding his head in pain, Maori Kogoro scolded him.

"I told you kid not to run around the scene in the future, making people worry about you, did you hear me!"

Conan was a little helpless, but he also knew that Maori Kogoro was concerned about him,"Got it, uncle."

On the side, Otaki Goro came over and said apologetically:"Mr. Maori, please don't talk about this kid. In fact, it was thanks to him that we were able to find Numabuchi Kiichiro just now.

And it was my men who made a mistake before. I'm very sorry."

Then, under the interrogation of the police, Numabuchi Kiichiro also confessed everything, the truth about the death of Inaba Tetsuji 20 years ago and the fact that he was imprisoned here by Sakata Yusuke.

On the other side, Hattori Heiji and Toyama Ginjiro and others at the Goji Councillor's House also received the notice from Otaki Goro. Although they couldn't believe it, Toyama Ginjiro still ordered Sakata Yusuke to be taken away.

When leaving, Goji Sotaro rushed to Sakata Yusuke and waved his fist,"Is this the person who wants my life? Damn it!"

As he said this, he was about to punch Sakata Yusuke in the face, but was stopped by Toyama Ginjiro.

"He is still my subordinate, can you please not do it?"

Sakata Yusuke looked at him with some emotion,"Section Chief Toyama……"

Seeing that Goji Sotaro was not convinced, Toyama Ginjiro said calmly:"Councilman Goji, I will come to visit you in the future, and then I will ask you to talk to me about the past 20 years ago." As soon as he said this, Goji Sotaro's face changed drastically, and he no longer dared to stop the police from leaving.

……

""Oh, mom, I'm back!"

Hattori Heiji shouted as he entered the room.

Hattori Heizo, who was sitting on the sofa, put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Maori Kogoro and his group behind him.

"I heard about this matter from Toyama, thank you very much for Mr. Maori's help."

Hearing his words, Maori Kogoro touched his head embarrassedly,"No, actually I didn't help much."

Hattori Heizo smiled and said nothing, just looked at the gold dust beside him.

"Otaki also told me about this young friend. Thanks to you, we didn't make a big mistake with the Osaka Prefectural Police. Thank you for your help."

As he spoke, he gradually opened his eyes.

"But, I can't see through you. I wonder who this young man is?"

Hearing his father's words, Hattori Heiji broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that Sakin was a member of that organization. Would he be exposed now?

Facing Hattori Heizo's question, Sakin smiled slightly and said,"I am Sakin, a risk lover. Please give me your advice, Mr. Director."
