Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 54 Discovering the traces of Numabuchi Kiichiro



Inside the Osaka Prefectural Police Higashijiri Station.

Everyone has been waiting for a long time, but Conan has not yet appeared.

Mao Lilan and Toyama Heye began to look for Conan in the police station.

Kamiya Minatsuki and Mouri Kogoro were lying comfortably on the sofa in the police station, smoking cigarettes and bragging.

"I think back when I was still working at the Metropolitan Police Department, I was famous as a sharpshooter, and it would be no exaggeration to say that my shots were perfect!" Mouri Kogoro puffed out his chest proudly.

"Is it so powerful? Then why did Uncle Maori become a detective now?" Kamiya Minazuki asked curiously.

Mouri Kogoro suddenly started hesitating, and said casually: "Well... because being a detective gives me more freedom, I quit my job at the Metropolitan Police Department and opened a detective agency."

This involves a dark past of Maori Kogoro ten years ago, so the face-conscious Maori Kogoro does not want to say it.

Mouri Kogoro suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, Brother Kamiya, every time I see you, you are outside alone. Aren't your family worried?"

Kamiya Minayuki put out the cigarette butt in his hand and replied casually: "I don't have a family, I'm used to living alone."

After Mouri Kogoro was silent for a while, he laughed and hugged Kamiya Minatsuki's shoulders: "You are really a free man. Living such a free life like yours will be the envy of many people."

Kamiya Mingyue said with a smile: "That's right, you can go wherever you want. No one is restraining you. Not to mention how comfortable it is."

Mouri Kogoro looks careless and heartless, but he is also a mature man after all, and his thoughts are actually very delicate.

Mouri Kogoro realized why Kamiya Minatsuki suddenly didn't want to drink after Mourilan warned him just now.

At this moment.

Maori Lan, who was looking for Conan to no avail, found Maori Kogoro and said anxiously: "Dad, Conan is missing!"

Mouri Kogoro waved his hand and said: "How could it be missing? This is the police station. This police station must be too big. The kid must have lost his way."

Kamiya Minazuki suddenly said: "As for Conan, I first saw him going out with that boy named Hattori Heiji."

"Ah? Conan left with Hattori? Why didn't Mr. Kamiya tell you earlier?"

Kamiya Mingyue blinked innocently: "But you didn't ask me either."

Mao Lilan choked suddenly, and then looked sad. Hattori Heiji went to investigate the case, why did Conan go to join in the fun? What if he encountered any danger?

At this time, Toyama and Ye came over and said, "Officer Sakata called just now. The kid named Conan is with Heiji and the others. Let's pick him up."

Mouri Kogoro stood up helplessly and said, "This kid really causes trouble for others."

Toyama and Ye asked Officer Otaki at the police station to drive them there.

Prefectural Library of Birds.

This is the place where Sakata Yusuke asked Kazuha and the others to pick up Conan.

Kamiya Mingetsu complained: "Why do I even have to come?"

Mouri Kogoro said matter-of-factly: "Since we agreed to travel to Osaka together, of course we have to come together."

Quite a coincidence.

Conan, Hattori Heiji and Sakata Yusuke also happened to come out of the Prefectural Center Bird Library at this time, and they met each other.

Mao Lilan put her hands on her hips and asked, "Conan, why did you come to this place!"

Conan secretly said, "Oops." He had planned to call Mao Lilan before, but later forgot about it because of the investigation.

Police officer Otaki greeted Hattori Heiji: "Heiji brother, long time no see."

Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment: "Officer Otaki, why are you here too?"

"This is because Heye asked me to drive here."

Officer Otaki is a subordinate of Toyama Kazuha's father, Toyama Ginshiro, and Toyama Ginshiro is a subordinate of Hattori Heiji's father, Hattori Heizo. Therefore, Officer Otaki has a very good relationship with Hattori Heiji.

Toyama and Ye looked at Conan: "I received a call from Officer Sakata and came to pick up this kid."

Hattori Heiji complained to Sakata Yusuke: "You are so troublesome."

Sakata Yusuke giggled and didn't answer.

And Hattori Heiji began to quarrel with Toyama Kazuha again.

Officer Otaki interrupted: "Okay, okay, next I will take this child and the guests from Tokyo to the director's house."

Officer Otaki said to Conan: "Okay, little brother, let's go quickly."

Conan, who had already grasped quite a few clues and was about to solve the case, was not willing to leave. He hugged Hattori Heiji's thigh and said, "No, I want to be with Heiji's brother."

"Officer Otaki, please wait a moment while I talk to Conan."

Hattori Heiji took Conan to a corner, squatted down and whispered to Conan: "This is Osaka, let us handle this case. Please get out of here quickly, Kudo."

However, Hattori Heiji, who is also a detective, knows Conan who is also a detective very well: "I think as soon as you see a loophole, you will definitely take the opportunity to follow him, right?"

Conan nodded with a smile. That's what he thought. Later, he planned to wait for Mao Lilan and others not to notice, and then quietly follow Hattori Heiji.

Hattori Heiji said helplessly: "I really can't stand you, so I'll leave this thing with you for now."

Hattori Heiji took off the amulet from his neck and put it on Conan: "But you have to promise me that this is the end of the day. Just be patient. I will definitely tell you the whole thing when I get home. .”

Finally, Conan reluctantly parted ways with Hattori Heiji and boarded Officer Otaki's police car.

Inside Officer Otaki's car.

Mouri Kogoro touched his stomach: "Oh, I'm hungry again."

Officer Otaki said with a smile: "In another 30 minutes, we can arrive at our chief's home in Neyagawa."

Toyama Kazuha praised: "Heiji's mother's cooking is recognized by everyone as the best."

Kamiya Mingyue leaned her elbows on the window, her mind a little confused.

He, a member of a criminal organization and responsible for countless murders, was going to have dinner at the home of the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.

If you tell me this, who would dare to believe it?

At this time, Officer Otaki's cell phone suddenly rang.

After answering the call, Officer Otaki's expression suddenly became extremely serious.

"What?! You said you found the wanted criminal Numabuchi Kiichiro's car at Minoh Mountain? Okay! I'll be there right away!"

When Kamiya Minazuki heard Numabuchi Kiichiro's name, he straightened his originally lazy posture slightly.

He thought that Numabuchi Kiichiro had fled Osaka, but he didn't expect the Osaka police to find his car.

After Officer Otaki hung up the phone, he put the siren on the roof of the car: "Mr. Mori, I'm sorry, but I may have to ask you to have a dinner later. I have to drop by somewhere now."
