Phantom Thief of Heart in Conan

Chapter 23 Investigation

After reading this warning letter from an unknown source, Tsukawa Hideharu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He was so complacent just now, and his hands and feet were shaking uncontrollably. He never expected that the crimes he had hidden for many years would be revealed so completely.

Exposed to the public without warning!

What happened? Who is this "Phantom Thief" and how did he discover my secret?

"Director..." At this time, a man shouted from the side, bringing Hideji Tsukawa back to reality.

After coming back to his senses, Tsugawa Hideharu immediately calmed down and put on his usual mask again. He recognized the librarian named Tamada Kazuo and immediately became suspicious.

Tamada Kazuo? Could it be that he is the Phantom Thief? This guy spends all day in the library, and he may have discovered my secret...

Of course, Tsugawa Hideharu would not express his inner thoughts. He pretended to be furious and yelled at Tamada Kazuo:

"Tamada, what's going on! Who posted this prank-like letter in the library? No, this can't be called a prank anymore, it's simply a threatening letter!"

It doesn't matter, all the drugs I have have been sold long ago. I have always been very careful in handling them. Even if the police come to search, they will not find any evidence. In short, I must not let anyone find out that I have something wrong with me!

"Director, I don't know what's going on!" Kazuo Tamada was startled and quickly explained, "These letters have been posted here since morning. I even went to ask about them last night.

The guards on duty don’t know anything about it either!”

Tsugawa Hideharu put away his anger and secretly observed Tamada Kazuo's actions, and his suspicion of him was reduced a lot. Then, Tsugawa Hideharu continued to pretend to be framed and said:

"Did you call the police? Such terrible things must be reported to the police! Damn it, who is framing me!"

"Director, in fact, the police have arrived, they are right there."

Tsugawa Hideharu looked in the direction pointed by Tamada Kazuo, and happened to meet the eyes of the fat police officer walking this way.

While he was telling himself in his mind that the police would not be able to find any evidence, he took the initiative to face the police.

"Hello, Mr. Police! I am the director of this library, Hideharu Tsugawa!"

"Hello, Director Tsugawa." The fat police officer showed his police manual to Tsugawa Hideharu, which had the name "Megure Thirteen" written on it. "I think you already understand the purpose of our visit today."

"Director Tsukawa, have you seen the contents of the notice letter?" Officer Megure asked bluntly, "Because the matter is so important, I won't be polite. What is written in the notice letter about you secretly selling drugs should not be

Really?"

"How could it be true, police officer!" Tsukawa Hideharu defended himself. It was impossible to tell from his appearance that he was lying.

"Over the years, I have been serving the Mihua Library conscientiously, using up all my personal energy. It can be said that I have dedicated my life to this library. How could I do something like drug trafficking?

Something terrible?"

"Of course we also know your credibility in society. The police will not believe this warning letter from unknown sources without actual evidence." Officer Megure said, "However, no one can prove that the warning letter is from unknown sources."

The content above is false. I hope you can understand the difficulties faced by our police.”

"I understand, and I will cooperate with the police in the investigation." Jinchuan Xiuji nodded repeatedly, suppressing his heart that was about to jump out of his throat, "I also ask all police officers to clear my name as soon as possible!"

Tsugawa Hideharu knew in his heart that the police would not search the library because of a mysterious warning letter, unless the "Phantom Thief" still held strong evidence.

When he thought of the Phantom Thief who had seen through his true face, Tsukawa Hideharu felt a dark wind sweep over him. He was not afraid of the dim police at all, but if the Phantom Thief, a mysterious stranger, held evidence of his crime...

"Officer Megure, do you know who this 'Phantom Thief' is?" Director Tsukawa pretended to be a deputy victim and asked Officer Megure for information.

"I don't know much more than you about this." Officer Megure did not answer his question directly, deliberately concealing information from him. "This time, our police may need your help in investigating this strange thief."

"I understand, please rest assured, I will definitely tell the police everything I know! Please be sure to catch this criminal who falsely accused me!"

"Don't worry, we will do our best." Officer Megure assured Tsugawa Hideharu, "Then Director Tsugawa, please come back to the bureau with me today so that you can cooperate with our investigation.

.”

After making some arrangements, Officer Megure returned to the police station with Hideharu Tsugawa. It was related to the drug trade and the mysterious "Phantom Thief". This investigation was destined to be meticulous and would never be simply fooled.

While Hideharu Tsugawa was taken away by the police for investigation, the initiator of all this, the heart-stealing Phantom Thief himself, was still in a daze in high school class, waiting for the lunch break.

After school, Kurusu Akatsuki said goodbye to Maori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko. Both of them were busy with club activities today, so they had to give up the idea of ​​going home with Kurusu Akatsuki. By the way, Suzuki Sonoko also tried to

When she persuaded Qi Xiao to join her tennis club, it was clear what An was thinking.

Akatsuki Kurusu took out the skateboard from the locker and adjusted the horsepower to the second gear. Judging from his test in the morning, this speed was just not too fast and best suited to his daily needs.

I don’t know how that kid Conan managed such a wild skateboard! Kurusu Akira secretly complained in his heart, then stepped on the skateboard and started the turbine engine installed on the back of the skateboard.

In an instant, the skateboard took Kurusu Akatsuki and rushed out like lightning. The speed quickly surpassed that of ordinary bicycles and continued to increase!

After a while, Akatsuki Kurusu rode his skateboard all the way to the front of Mihua Library. Seeing that the notice letters on the outer wall of the library had been cleared away, he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

It seems that my notice letter has been delivered to the target. Then, it is time for the Phantom Thief to appear.

In order to prevent being noticed, Kurusu Akatsuki stayed away from the Mihua Library on his skateboard and found another place where no one was paying attention to go to the cognitive world.
