In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 245 The Recovered Gemstone (12)

Just as the morning talk show ended and Conan, Mao Lilan and others were about to go to lunch,
Suddenly, I saw Sera Masumi took out his cell phone and put it to his ear.

"Okay, I see."

"I'll be there right away."

After a brief exchange with the other party, Masumi Sera hung up the phone.

She then looked at Mao Lilan and others and said:

"It's Officer Nakamori. Xiaolan, go eat. You don't have to wait for me."

After saying this, Sera Masumi turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

When Conan heard this, he realized that something was wrong, so he quickly followed.

"Sister Xiaolan, Sister Sonoko, you guys go eat. Miss Sera and I will go take a look!"

Just as Mao Li Ran reacted, she saw that Conan had already run a long way after Sera Masumi.

"Really? How come he ran away again?"

Ran Mao Li looked at Conan's back as he ran away and said somewhat sadly.

Conan ran out early in the morning without even saying hello.

Mao Lilan thought that Conan didn't eat much in the morning, so she planned to bring him a good meal at noon.

Unexpectedly, Conan heard that there was another case and ran away with Sera Masumi.

"This kid is too self-willed. He is disobedient at such a young age. I'm afraid he will become even worse when he grows up."

Suzuki Sonoko put her hand on the shoulder of Mouri Ran, who was feeling a little lost, and also expressed her dissatisfaction with Conan.
-
the other side.

Conan trotted over to Sera Masumi in front of him and asked:
"what happened?"

"Officer Nakamori said that the Scarlet Shadow Heart has been found."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"But the Scarlet Shadow Heart was returned by the detectives from the Investigation Division."

"Eh?"

Conan was stunned.

"Hasn't the gem been temporarily kept as evidence by the Investigation Division?"

"It looks like not."

Sera Masumi said.

“It’s a little strange.”

Conan reached out and touched his chin, lost in thought.

"Before the exhibition officially opened today, a notice was put up outside the Scarlet Shadow Heart collection room, which clearly stated that the Scarlet Shadow Heart would be on display tonight."

"Then how can they be sure that the Scarlet Shadow Heart will be sent back in the afternoon?"

Conan asked doubtfully.

"I think it's because Mr. Tsukino is in the Investigation Division, so I ask him to return the gem as soon as he finds it."

"Tsukino Masayuki is also one of the managers of the Tsukino Group. It's impossible for him to run away."

Sera Masumi said.

“I thought of this possibility from the beginning.”

Conan continued.

"Mr. Takashi Tsukino, as the next successor to the Tsukino Group, will definitely find a way to get the Metropolitan Police Department to return the gems in order to prevent this incident from spreading and bringing a negative impact to the Tsukino Group."

"He used his connections to get the Metropolitan Police Department to return the gems ahead of time. There's nothing wrong with that."

"The problem is that the Metropolitan Police Department can only return the gem if they catch Mr. Tsukino Masaru and get the gem from him."

"How can Mr. Takashi Tsukino be so sure that Mr. Masayuki Tsukino will be caught so quickly?"

"After all, this time we only guessed the identity of the thief, but we didn't find any direct evidence."

Conan was surprised that Takashi Tsukino was so sure that the gemstone would be returned this afternoon. Masumi Sera also felt something was wrong when she heard Conan say that.

"Boy, are you saying that this drug-filled theft case was planned by Tsukino Takashi from the beginning?"

"Then this price is too high, right? What is his motive?"

If Masayuki Tsukino had planned to steal the gem in order to fight for the position of heir, she could understand why he had done so.

But Takashi Tsukino had already been confirmed as the next heir, and he was drugged twice by Masayuki Tsukino and was in a coma for a whole day.

Tsukino Takashi paid such a huge price, but Sera Masumi did not figure out what benefits he could get from it.

"I just said there is such a possibility. After all, this matter is a bit strange."

"Of course, it's also possible that Tsukino Takashi came up with this delaying tactic because the gem was lost."

"He was simply stalling for time, and it just so happened that the search only took a few hours to get the gem back."

Conan said this to Sera Masumi, and then they came to the collection room of the Scarlet Heart.

Here, there is not only Takashi Tsukino who just finished the talk show.

There are also police officers from Investigation Section 1 and Investigation Section 2.

After Conan and others opened the door and walked in, they happened to see a detective taking out a ruby.

When the man heard someone opening the door, he immediately showed a vigilant expression.

But once he saw Sera Masumi, the alertness on his face immediately disappeared.

Most of the detectives in the current Investigation Division 1 know Masumi Sera, so this detective is no exception.

"If it is confirmed that there is no problem with the gemstone, then it will be put back into the display case in the collection room."

Tsukino Takashi nodded when he heard this, and the detective then picked up the gem and prepared to put it in the display case.

"Wait a moment!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted the actions of the detective from the Investigation Section 1.

The voice came from Ginzo Nakamori.

Nakamori Ginzo walked up and stretched out his hand to pinch the man's cheek hard.

After confirming that it was not a mask, he turned to look at the other people present.

"Now that the gems have been sent back, Kaito Kidd could sneak in disguised as one of us at any time."

"Just in case, we should confirm with each other whether the other party is Kaito Kid in disguise."

After Nakamori Ginzo finished speaking, he looked at Sera Masumi and Conan.

The female police officer next to Ginzo Nakamori understood and came over to the two men to confirm their identities.

And Ginzo Nakamori himself came in front of Tsukino Takashi.

"Sorry, Mr. Tsukino."

"It's okay. Officer Nakamori is just trying to be on the safe side. I understand."

Tsukino Takashi did not show any dissatisfaction at all because of Nakamori Ginzo's suspicion.

After reaching out and pinching Takayasu Tsukino's cheek, Nakamori Ginzo nodded.

"no problem."

"Shouldn't Officer Nakamori also confirm this?"

The detective from Investigation Division 1 holding the Scarlet Shadow Heart Gem looked at Nakamori Ginzo and said with a smile.

"Too."

Ginzo Nakamori smiled and nodded, then moved his face closer.

Soon, the identities of Ginzo Nakamori and the female police officer from the Second Investigation Section next to him were confirmed.

After confirming that there was no one disguised as Kaito Kidd in the collection room at the moment,
The detective from the Investigation Division 1 then carefully placed the gem back onto the special stand in the center of the display case.

Then he locked the display case again.
