Stay away from Conan

Chapter 1042 The prisoner’s flaw

In the Maori Detective Agency, when Conan, whose hands and feet were bound and gagged, and Xiaolan, who dared not leave the computer, noticed that the door of the agency was about to be opened from the outside, they both looked extremely nervous. They were worried that the people coming in from outside the house would be Officer Megure and the others, which might cause the gangsters behind the screen to find out that the police had intervened and harm Fei Yingli again. At the same time, the two of them had to pay attention to the situation on the screen, for fear that What terrible situation appeared on the screen——

However, when the door of the office was really pushed open from the outside, at this moment, the video displayed on the computer screen really appeared in time. The content of the live video was originally playing, and then suddenly the computer screen All of a sudden it turned into a blue screen and a bunch of gibberish!

Suddenly, Conan and Xiaolan were shocked.

At the same time, the people outside the door have pushed the door completely open. Through this door, you can directly see Conan who is tied to a chair in the room and Xiaolan beside him——

"Xiaolan? Conan?"

Surprised, after witnessing the scene inside the house, the expression of the person who opened the door suddenly became extremely complicated...

Starting from Akechi's house and driving the police car, it didn't take long for Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru to arrive at the downstairs of the Mori Detective Agency in Yoneka Town.

Seeing that the lights of the Mori Detective Agency were still on at this time, I knew that there should be people in the office at this moment, so after getting out of the car, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru ran towards the Mori Detective Agency on the second floor. ——

After all, the current incident concerns Mouri Kogoro. As for the reason why Mouri Kogoro stabbed Takato, we may be able to learn something from his residence and Xiaolan and Conan who lived with him.

Furthermore, it is possible that Kogoro Mori, who left Akechi's house, has returned to the office.

Therefore, after discovering that there should be someone else in the office, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru hurriedly ran upstairs to the door of the detective office, preparing to open the door of the office.

Then, the moment Officer Megure pushed away, he directly saw the weird scene in the office——

Conan's mouth was sealed with tape and tied to the chair in front of the office desk, while Xiaolan stood beside Conan normally and did not seem to be subject to any restrictions.

"Xiaolan? Conan?"

Subconsciously, after seeing the scene in front of them, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru both made doubtful sounds at first, and then suddenly showed vigilant expressions. Their brows were furrowed. They did not rush into the room immediately, but were on guard. Get ready to draw your gun——

Conan is tied here, but Xiaolan doesn't seem to be subject to any restrictions, but she doesn't help Conan untie the rope. This situation seems like Xiaolan is being threatened by something and doesn't dare to rescue Conan.

With this kind of thinking, Officer Mumu believed that there might be gangsters secretly threatening Xiaolan and the others in the room at this moment.

In this regard, based on this idea, both Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru chose to draw their guns directly——

In any case, the action of pushing the door open just now must have alerted the prisoner. In this case, there is no room for detours, so it is better to strike first!

And, since after pushing the door and entering, there is no one except Conan and Xiaolan, then the rest...

Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru simply looked at each other, then with a "swish", they jumped forward, raised their pistols and pointed towards their original blind spot, behind the door——

However, it turned out that the seat behind the door was also empty.

At this time, Xiaolan, who was at the desk, suddenly panicked and looked towards the computer screen on the desk. She suddenly seemed to have been hit by something, panicked and started to fiddle with the computer. keyboard and mouse——

"Ah! Mom——"

In response, when she saw that the computer screen suddenly turned into a blue screen and she could no longer see Fei Yingli's condition through the video, Xiaolan couldn't help but become nervous, shouted at the screen, and tried to operate the computer in a panic. Let’s see if we can solve the computer problem——

After all, if the gangster on the other side of the camera thinks that he has deliberately cut off the communication due to a computer failure, then what should the mother do?

Thinking like this, Xiaolan was so anxious that she was at a loss. However, no matter how she operated the computer, there was no response from the computer. After a brief blue screen, the computer crashed and could no longer be turned on.

Seeing this, seeing that the computer had a problem coincided with the arrival of Officer Megure and the others. Conan on the side realized that this was not a coincidence. It must have been something done to the computer of the detective agency through the network connection. Operation will lead to such results.

Therefore, as of now, although Fei Yingli's condition cannot be seen for the time being, he and Xiaolan are no longer under the supervision of the other party. So now, he can finally get rid of this constrained state and launch an investigation——

Although I am not sure what Fei Yingli's condition is right now, there is no other better way now.

Therefore, Conan, who was thinking this way, still struggled to make a noise, asking Xiaolan and Officer Megure who were beside him to quickly find a way to untie the rope around him.

At this moment, because no gangsters were found in the office, and Xiaolan did not pay attention to the arrival of herself and others at this time, but looked very anxious at the computer in the office, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru temporarily stopped. He picked up the gun and quickly came to Xiaolan and the others. While paying attention to whether there was anything going on on the computer that Xiaolan was looking at at this time, he noticed Conan's movement——

Therefore, Officer Memu first helped Conan untie the rope and the tape that sealed his mouth, then looked at Xiaolan and asked Xiaolan and the others very urgently:

"Xiaolan, Conan, what happened!"

"Aunt Yingli was kidnapped!"

Hearing this, just when Xiaolan was still distressed because the computer could not be started, Conan, who had just untied the rope, immediately explained the most critical situation to Officer Memu and the others concisely and clearly.

"What!"

Immediately, when they heard what Conan said, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru were both shocked. At the same time, they seemed to understand why Mouri Kogoro stabbed Takato. The reason was already clear to him. He hurriedly, Officer Megure asked

"Conan, Xiaolan, what exactly happened? And do you know where Brother Maori went? Why is Conan tied up here?"

One after another, Officer Memu asked several questions.

Xiaolan didn't know how to answer this for a while, especially in the current situation. Fei Yingli's life and death were still uncertain, which made Xiaolan a little worried. When she didn't know what to do, Conan started from the beginning seriously. He told Officer Megure and the others what happened.

From the beginning, Maori Kogoro received a strange video communication. Through the real-time network video screen, he saw Fei Yingli who was kidnapped in a room with a white background. Then the gangsters who kidnapped Fei Yingli used this to threaten Maori Xiaogoro. What Goro and himself and others did——

By using Fei Eri's life as a threat, Mouri Kogoro was forced to play games with him. However, because he and others were monitored by the prisoner using the computer's camera, everything they did would be seen.

Among them, as for why he was tied up and his mouth was sealed with tape, Conan simply explained that it was because he talked too much when Kogoro Mori answered the prisoner's question, and the prisoner asked him to tie himself up. He could not Affects the individual game flow between the prisoner and Moori Kogoro.

As for the fact that Mouri Kogoro is not here now, it is because he went to play the next game alone, and he and Xiaolan were still being monitored by the prisoners with cameras until just now.

In this way, after listening to Conan's story and asking Xiaolan for confirmation, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru looked at each other, feeling that the prisoner's various precautions were almost perfect in order to prevent any accidents that might interfere with his plan.

and……

Looking at the computer with nothing on the screen at this moment, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru only felt that it was extremely difficult——

Or someone who knows how to use computers to commit crimes...

Regarding this point, not only Officer Megure, who basically knows nothing about computers, but even Takagi Wataru, who knows a little bit about computers, can be said to be helpless in this regard.

Therefore, faced with such a situation, Officer Megure immediately sought the support of corresponding technical personnel from the Metropolitan Police Department and asked them to come to the Mori Detective Office to check the computer involved.

Later, seeing that the police were finally fully involved in the investigation of the case, Xiaolan was about to cry and asked Officer Memu to find a way to rescue her mother.

In this regard, looking at Xiaolan's sad look, Officer Mumu nodded affirmatively. After calming down Xiaolan's emotions, Officer Mumu cautiously began to ask Xiaolan and the others.

"Ah, by the way... do you know what the next game the gangster asked Brother Maori to play is exactly?"

Because I already have a general understanding of what happened, and I thought that some gangsters were using Fei Yingri to threaten Mouri Kogoro, then from this point of view, the reason why Mouri Kogoro stabbed Gao Yuan just now is most likely because the gangsters coerced him to do it. , so what is the so-called game content? Officer Megure wants to know now——

"this……"

But in response, Xiaolan shook her head blankly and answered unclearly.

"I don't know. Because the second game content was reported to Dad individually by the prisoner through the radio, and we didn't hear it. Dad left alone after that, and we were monitored by computer cameras, so we were always there. Don’t dare to leave…”

"That's it..."

Listening to Xiaolan's answer, Officer Megure and Takagi Wataru looked at each other. They felt that Xiaolan and the others should not know about Mouri Kogoro's attack on Takato. After all, they had no idea where Mouri Kogoro would go after leaving the office. It may not be clear where.

As a result, Officer Megure and the others did not continue to ask Xiaolan and Conan about what happened after Kogoro Mori left. Instead, they began to try to inquire about the details of what happened in the office before, and focused on the kidnapping of Fei Yingri. One thing.

In this regard, Xiaolan couldn't help but tell her that she had just met Fei Yingli today because of the three-way interview at the school, and that after that, Fei Yingli went to Didan General Hospital for investigation. Officer Mu and the others.

Hearing this, he nodded slightly, and then Officer Memu ordered Takagi Wataru:

"Takagi, take someone to Didan General Hospital to investigate!"

"yes!"

After hearing Officer Megure's instructions, Takagi Wataru replied firmly -

In any case, since according to Xiaolan and the others, the whole incident started with the kidnapping of Fei Yingli, then finding a way to find the suspect who kidnapped Fei Yingli is a good breakthrough for this incident.

And, no matter what, if someone is kidnapped, the police must also do their duty to save people.

Therefore, Takagi Wataru left the detective agency first and prepared to go to Didan General Hospital to conduct investigations.

As for Officer Megure, he stayed in the office, waiting for police support and preparing to conduct an inspection of the office——

After all, the prisoner knew that there was rope and tape in the desk drawer of the office, and that the tape recorder was probably where the prisoner had prepared it. It was obvious that the prisoner must have entered the office. Let's see if any traces could be found.

In this regard, facing the current situation of police intervention, Xiaolan is still extremely worried. Not only is she worried about Fei Yingli's safety, but she is also very uneasy about the current situation of Mouri Kogoro.

Conan, on the other hand, after Officer Megure gave Takagi Wataru the order to investigate Teitan General Hospital, he carefully thought about the entire incident so far, and then suddenly asked seriously and curiously:

"Officer Megure, how did you know that something happened in the office? Did Uncle Maori contact you?"

"Ah...this..."

For a moment, when asked by Conan, Officer Megure was a little at a loss. He didn't know if he should tell the truth about Mouri Kogoro stabbing Gao Yuan and causing Gao Yuan to die now.

However, due to Officer Megure's hesitation when facing this problem, Conan and Xiaolan felt that something was wrong. Xiaolan, who was already uneasy about the situation of Mouri Kogoro who left, felt very worried. I asked Officer Qimu:

"Officer Megure! What happened to dad?"

"Officer Megure, is something wrong with Uncle Mouri?"

Similarly, regarding Officer Megure's reaction, Conan realized that the matter might be more serious than he thought, and couldn't help but ask more concernedly.

Regarding this, in the face of Conan and Xiaolan's questioning, Officer Memu hesitated for a long time, but thinking that it was impossible to hide it after all, he sighed and called the police anonymously. Then he arrived at the scene and found that it was Mouri Kogoro briefly explained the attack on Takato to Xiaolan and Conan...

"Impossible! Dad can't possibly do this..."

After listening to the facts told by Officer Megu, Xiaolan came to the emergency room of the hospital and saw that Gao Yuan was still being rescued. Xiaolan couldn't believe what was happening.

And Conan, seeing this scene, couldn't help but grit his teeth -

First, Xiaolan's mother was kidnapped, and then she took control of me to threaten Uncle Maori to do things. Even Mr. Mingzhi was brutally murdered...

This gangster!

"Na...Edogawa..."

At this time, outside the rescue room, Xiao Ai was sitting uneasily waiting outside the door. When he saw Conan and Xiao Lan also coming here, and was panicked about Gao Yuan's attack, Xiao Ai suddenly became indifferent. called Conan's name——

"Do you know what kind of snake venom Gao Yuan has been poisoned by?"
