Stay away from Conan

Because the target of the gangsters was the white hair of the Buddha statue in Hattori Heiji’s hand, if they knew that Hattori Heiji was in a car accident and was unconscious, the other party would probably not play their cards as usual——

After all, normally the purpose of kidnapping a hostage is to threaten the target, but now that the target is unconscious, the other party may directly threaten the safety of Hattori Heiji who is hospitalized.

Or, it is possible to simply do nothing and just drag it out.

Neither of these is what Kudo Shinichi wants to happen. After the suspect has been basically locked in, Kudo Shinichi still hopes that the other party will act like a normal kidnapper, so that when the police are tracking them, Once they do something they will be discovered.

Therefore, in order to cover up the fact that Hattori Heiji was in a coma, Kudo Shinichi proposed the idea of ​​him working overtime for Hattori Heiji——

This is not only to facilitate the further development of the incident, but also to disguise his external identity and prevent Kudo Shinichi's identity from being exposed. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

In this regard, after listening to Kudo Shinichi's words, everyone present looked at each other, especially now that Kudo Shinichi was wearing a hat, but in terms of appearance, it seemed...

It's not something that's impossible to do.

As night approaches, Tokyo, the Metropolitan Police Department——

Because there is an emergency notice, the Metropolitan Police Department will hold a press conference related to a certain case, so many media are now gathered in the press conference room of the Metropolitan Police Department, quietly waiting for the press conference to be held. And many TV stations also broadcast it live.

Here, sitting on the main podium in the press room, the chairpersons are Officer Megure and Officer Shiratori of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. On both sides are Officer Otaki, the representative of the Osaka Prefectural Police, and Officer Ayanokoji, the representative of the Kyoto Prefectural Police.

With such a lineup of police officers, the reporters present saw the name tags in front of the police officers, including police officers from three places, and they all realized the importance of this urgent press conference.

From then on, as the time for the press conference began, Officer Megure looked at the speech he had prepared in his hand, and began to formally speak for a while, then moved on to the key content of the press conference, which took place in Tokyo, The murders in Osaka and Kyoto——

"Regarding the recent serial murders that occurred in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto respectively, according to the existing search results, the five people killed have been proven to be members of the thief gang 'Genji Hotaru'. Therefore, this incident, The Metropolitan Police Department, Osaka Prefecture, and Kyoto Prefecture will conduct joint operations to investigate this case..."

In this way, in front of the camera, when Officer Megure said this, Officer Takagi and Officer Sato, who were standing outside the camera and standing at the corner of the venue, saw that among the police officers sitting on the venue, they belonged to Kyoto After seeing Fumimaro Ayanokouji of the Prefecture, Officer Takagi Wataru couldn’t help but asked Miwako Sato:

"Officer Sato, I heard that Officer Ayanokouji from Kyoto Prefecture seems to be a co-worker of the Shiratori Police Department."

It seems that because Kyoto Prefecture sent Ayanokouji Fumimaro this time, the Metropolitan Police Department quickly spread some information about the relationship between Ayanokouji Fumimaro and Shiratori Rensaburo. Now Takagi Wataru was also a little curious. asked.

Miwako Sato also heard about this and said:

"Well, I know him. He is a descendant of a noble family, and his nickname is Noble Police. Moreover, you should pay attention to his pockets..."

Speaking of this, Takagi Wataru couldn't help but pay attention to Ayanokouji Fumimaro's jacket pocket, and saw a squirrel moving in his pocket.

Seeing this, Gao Mushe couldn't help but be surprised:

"Huh? Squirrel!"

"That's right, his pet squirrel. It was rumored that he would often take it out. I didn't expect that he would bring it with him even on such occasions. Doesn't it look weirder than Officer Shiratori?" Sato Miwako further said.

"Uh...that's right..."

Somewhat helplessly, Takagi Wataru really thinks so. After all, many times, Officer Shiratori still treats himself...

In this way, just when Takagi Wataru was thinking this, as the press conference progressed, Officer Megure, Officer Shiratori, Officer Otaki, Officer Ayanokouji and others expressed their opinions one after another, expressing their opinions on the investigation of this incident. Some of the information that came out, including the fact that the murderer was a man proficient in swordsmanship and archery, also showed that.

Finally, at the end of the press conference, Officer Megure stated that taking advantage of the cooperation between the three polices, the purpose would not only be to find the criminal this time, but more importantly, to bring down the organization "Hotaru Genji". It will also be completely destroyed, and the criminals and the remaining members of the thieves gang will be arrested as soon as possible.

In this way, after finishing these words, Officer Megure and others answered the questions from a few reporters in the audience, and the press conference ended...

And as the news of this press conference was reported by mainstream media in various parts of Japan, especially in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, it seemed to have finally affected Kyoto...

Xiaolan and Sonoko appeared outside the private room, and after slightly sticking their heads in, Xiaolan couldn't help but politely said to Ryuen:

"I heard it right, it was Master Ryuen's voice. I didn't expect to meet here."

So, seeing Xiaolan and the others appear here, Ryuen and the others were also a little surprised. After all, Xiaolan and the others didn't seem to be familiar with the people other than Ryuen.

"Xiaolan, Sonoko, I'll go first."

And at this moment, outside the door, a young man wearing Hattori Heiji's hat and coat said this to Xiaolan and Sonoko in Kansai dialect, and then walked along the corridor outside the door to the private room behind -

Such a figure immediately attracted the attention of some people in the private room where Ryuen and the others were.

Then, Xiaolan said to the other party:

"Okay, Hattori."

After that, Xiaolan came in and said to Ryuen:

"Master Ryuen, I want to apologize to you for something... My father... He is too busy to come, so I am afraid that your commission may be..."

"Hey? Commission? What commission?"

In response, Sakura Masazo seemed a little puzzled, and looked at Ryuen and asked, then Sakura Masazo glanced at Xiaolan's identity with a deep meaning, and also asked Ryuen about the other party's identity.
