In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 232 Notice (22)

last night.

Akikawa Sosuke received a call from Sera Masumi and learned that Sera Masumi and Conan will come to Tokyo Big Sight on the 27th, which is tomorrow.

Because of Kaito Kid's act of stuffing cards into Tsukino Takashi's body.

This caused Masumi Sera and Conan to become suspicious of the invited guests at the event.

Sera Masumi called because he wanted to describe the situation of the guests on the scene to him himself.

While describing things to Masumi Sera, Akikawa Sosuke discovered that when he talked about Toru Amuro, Masumi Sera showed a very obvious strange reaction.

After listening to Masumi Sera's description, Akikawa Sousuke finally knew that

This clerk who claimed to work part-time in a luxury store actually worked downstairs from Kogoro Mouri's detective agency.

Moreover, Masumi Sera made it very clear that there was something wrong with Toru Amuro.

In addition, Akikawa Sosuke discovered that after hearing his description of Kaito Kid, Amuro Toru showed subtle physiological reactions of rejection.

So a guess emerged in Akikawa Sosuke's mind, perhaps Amuro Toru knew that he was lying.

If that's the case.

Then Amuro Toru's meeting with me could not be accidental, but he deliberately arranged it to get close to me.

Akikawa Sosuke's first reaction was the police.

However, Toru Amuro does not have the aura of a detective that can be detected at a glance.

While chatting before dinner, Toru Amuro talked about work for the second time.

Akikawa Sosuke realized that Amuro Toru was trying to trick him.

So he took the opportunity to talk about the two cases he had experienced at the Empire Theatre and the Hong Kong Film Festival.

Akikawa Sosuke noticed that when Amuro Toru heard him talk about these two cases, he showed a subtle and brief expression of surprise.

On the surface, this brief change in emotion fits in with how micro-expressions appear on the human body.

But it was Toru Amuro's overly realistic reaction that seemed a little off.

When a normal person hears a stranger say that he was targeted and nearly killed by strangers twice at work, his first reaction should be to think that the other person is joking.

Even if this is true, Akikawa Sosuke still chooses to continue to be an artist, which is very unusual.

Perhaps some people, due to social etiquette, will express surprise at things they don't believe at all.

However, this disguised expression of surprise would often stay on the face for more than a second, and Akikawa Sorasuke could see through it at a glance.

Perhaps there is another possibility, that is, Toru Amuro really believed what he just said.

The surprise he expressed was a real physiological reaction.

But if Toru Amuro was really such a person who could easily accept obviously unusual things, then he should not have doubted his criticism of Kaito Kid yesterday.

Therefore, Akikawa Sosuke was sure.

Toru Amuro had known me for a long time and had some information about me.

As for when Akikawa Sosuke asked Amuro Toru about his other work later, he did not stare at Amuro Toru to see if he was lying.

That's because there is no longer any need for it.

Since Toru Amuro was able to pretend to be genuinely surprised, Akikawa Sorasuke also believed that Toru Amuro would not reveal any flaws under his direct questioning.

Toru Amuro did not deny Akikawa Sorasuke's question, but revealed that he had a part-time job in a cafe.

This answer is obviously much better than a direct denial.

Because Toru Amuro did work part-time in a cafe, this is true, so there is no way he could be exposed.

This is the "partial truth strategy" in anti-reconnaissance techniques, which relies on revealing part of the truth to circumvent polygraph testing.

After the case of Kyoushi Toda, Yoko Okino used the same technique to avoid her own questioning.

This technique is indeed clever and useful.

But it has a drawback.

That is, it only applies to situations where the party conducting the polygraph test has less information than the party being polygraphed.

Like now,

Since I have already determined that Toru Amuro has another identity, the partial truth strategy will not work.

At the same time, Amuro Toru also revealed even more fatal information. That is -

He has mastered the art of counter-reconnaissance.

'Knowing the cases I've been involved in before, it's most likely the police.'

'Not only is his acting skill not bad, he also has the skills of counter-detection, and at the same time, he doesn't have the slightest detective temperament.'

'Before, Toda Kyoushi, who was in the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department, did not have such a skill, which means that the organization department he belongs to is even higher than the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department.'

After analyzing this, the answer is obvious:

'Public security'

Of course, Akikawa Sosuke analyzed more than just this.

Because not all police officers have the opportunity to receive training in counter-detection and concealing the temperament of a criminal police officer.

Plus, Toru Amuro is still so young and looks like he’s less than 30 years old.

In this way, his origin is very intriguing.

Kyoushi Toda is in his forties and works as an inspector in the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department.

For ordinary police officers, the rank of inspector general is already a very high rank.

It's basically the ceiling for ordinary police officers.

But in Japan, there is a group of people called "senior civil servants."

They are police officers who passed the National Public Service Examination and entered the Metropolitan Police Department.

Among the nearly 30 police officers in Japan, only about have this title.

So they are truly the elite among the elite.

Senior civil servants who have passed the National Civil Service Examination will be awarded the rank of Inspector when they enter the Metropolitan Police Department.

They will then undergo training at the police academy.

After completing the training, you will be directly promoted to police captain.

They are promoted very quickly, which is difficult for ordinary police officers to achieve.

Naturally, the training these people receive is not accessible to ordinary police officers.

"This Amuro Toru should be a high-ranking civil servant who graduated from the police academy, and his rank is at least that of a police captain."

"But how did the police target me?"

"The last person who followed me was killed by that Vermouth."

Akikawa Sosuke felt something was wrong.

Logically speaking, the conflicts among the public security police should have been transferred to that mysterious organization.

It was clear that the public security policeman had only died a few days ago.

There is also no evidence that he has discovered that he is being eavesdropped or followed.

It is even more impossible for anyone to know that it was me who stuffed the cell phone into Vermouth's pocket.

Why is it that this Toru Amuro has set his sights on me so quickly?

"Logically, even if they found out that the police officer died because he was tracking the location in my phone, they shouldn't have suspected me so quickly."

'Because they know my identity, but they don't know that I gave Belmode a cell phone.'

"And Vermouth only knew that I gave her a cell phone, but she didn't know my identity."

The more Akikawa Sosuke thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

In this case, it is highly likely that Akikawa Sousuke himself made a mistake.

Maybe I did something wrong, or overlooked something, and someone found out about my mistake.

After thinking for a moment, Akikawa Sosuke suddenly chuckled in his heart.

Mistake, how is that possible?

"Rather than believing that I made a mistake, it is better to believe that the public security officer in front of me, who has superb acting skills, is also a member of that organization. The possibility is greater."

There was a hint of teasing in Akikawa Sosuke's eyes. He lowered his head and put another piece of beef into his mouth.
