Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 121 How about... changing the name again?

Looking at Xiaolan who was talking incessantly about Kudo Shinichi in front of him, a smile appeared in Moritani Teiji's eyes.

Through the conversation with Xiaolan, he not only learned about the "relationship" between Xiaolan and Kudo Shinichi, but also learned their lucky colors and the information that they would go to the Beika Municipal Building he built to watch a movie on Sunday night.

As the smile on Teiji Moritani's face became more and more sincere, the malice that Makino sensed from him became stronger and stronger, but it was obvious that all this malice was directed at Xiaolan.

At this moment, Moriya Teiji suddenly looked at Makino with a smile on his face: "By the way, Mr. Makino, I heard that the work in the Metropolitan Police Department is always very hard. How about taking a good rest during the weekend? I happen to have a few movie tickets in my hand..."

Before Moriya Teiji could finish, Makino interrupted with a smile, "Professor Moriya, I heard that your previous name seemed to be Moriya Sadaharu, right?"

After seeing the smile on Makino's lips, Conan on the side felt a chill for some reason. He glanced at the closed window not far away and frowned in confusion.

Although he didn't know why Makino suddenly mentioned his name change at this time, Moriya Teiji still replied with a smile: "Yes, I changed it to Moriya Teiji later. Compared with the previous name, I think this name is obviously more suitable for me~"

Hearing this, Makino smiled and said, "Oh? In that case, why didn't you change your name to Moriya Moriya? Isn't this name more symmetrical and beautiful~"

Xiaolan: “?”

Conan: "???"

Moriya Teiji: "..."

After a moment of silence, Moriya Teiji stretched out his hand to pinch the two mustaches at the corners of his mouth, and murmured seriously: "Moriya Moriya Sen..."

Indeed, if this is the name, it does seem more symmetrical than "Moriya Teiji".

Although the name seems a little unreasonable and even sounds like a joke.

But whether as an architect or as an artist, Teiji Moriya does not believe that the "rules and regulations" that lock ordinary people can lock him up.

Otherwise, he would not have changed his name to Moriya Teiji at that time.

And for some reason, he always felt that this name seemed to have a magical beauty.

Thinking of this, Moriya Teiji's eyes were full of excitement. He looked up at Makino excitedly: "Thank you for your suggestion! Mr. Makino, I will consider it carefully!"

Makino: “?!”

At this moment, Makino clearly realized that the malice that Moriya Teiji released towards him was getting smaller and smaller, almost disappearing.

After realizing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Makino's eyes.

This old Deng...does he really like this new name he came up with? !
Conan and Xiaolan, who were standing by, also stood there with their mouths wide open after seeing Professor Moritani's excited expression.

There was astonishment and confusion in the eyes of both of them.

No way?
Could it be that Professor Moritani really has something in mind for this ridiculous "name"? ! !

After the tea party, Makino said goodbye to Xiaolan and the others and left the Moritani mansion by car.

After returning home, Makino called Inspector Megure immediately and "borrowed" Shiratori, Sato and others from him.

……

The next morning.

Makino called Shiratori and others into the office, handed them Moritani Teiji's information, and asked them to secretly monitor Moritani Teiji starting today.

Although no one knew how Makino discovered that there might be something wrong with Moriya Teiji, no one asked any further questions.

If it was Inspector Megure or someone else who assigned them the task, they might still ask about the meaning and purpose of doing so. But since this was a task assigned to them by Counselor Makino, there must be a very important reason!
The fact that Counselor Makino was so concerned that he even let them take turns to supervise...

There must be something wrong with this Professor Moritani!

Thinking of this, solemn expressions appeared on the faces of several people.

After Shiratori and the others left the office, Makino took a sip of the coffee in his cup.

The reason why he skipped Manager Matsumoto and others and directly let Officer Shiratori and others carry out this task was to allow them to accumulate as many "merits" as possible.

Hasegawa was in the gold watch group just like himself, and would be promoted to superintendent soon, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

But Shiratori, Date and Sato Takagi were clearly lagging behind.

Let’s not talk about Shiratori for now. Since he is in the professional group and has the support of Shiratori Group and himself behind him, it is naturally not difficult for him to be promoted.

But the Ida and other members who were not in the professional group clearly lacked stamina.

Although Makino did not expect them to climb to a very high position, since they had already made their own "mark", they could not just be satisfied with the ranks of Patrol Sergeant and Inspector General.

Anyway, most of the high-ranking police officers in the Investigation Division are from non-professional groups. As long as they meet the required performance requirements and have a little help from him, these people will have the opportunity to be promoted to Superintendent or even Senior Superintendent in the future.

One night later, Makino received a call from Officer Sato.

According to Officer Sato, Professor Moritani did not leave the mansion during the day, but when night fell, Professor Moritani left the mansion abnormally.

Not only that, he seemed to have dressed himself up. In addition to a heavy coat, he even wore gloves, a hat and sunglasses, which looked very suspicious!

Currently, Shiratori and Date are quietly following Professor Moritani from behind, while Sato and Takagi are responsible for reporting to Makino.

After giving a few simple instructions, Makino hung up the phone and prepared to drive to meet the others.

Although he didn't know the exact time when Teiji Moriya stole the explosives, based on Officer Sato's report, he thought it was today.

Twenty minutes later, Makino met up with Shiratori and Officer Sato near the Oriental powder depot.

After seeing Makino, Officer Shiratori frowned and said, "Counselor! Officer Ida and I have been following him until just now, but he seems to have entered..."

At this point, Officer Shiratori paused, looking a little confused and nervous.

"Did he enter the gunpowder depot?" Makino asked calmly.

"That's right!" Officer Shiratori and Ida Kou beside him nodded at the same time.

At this moment, they finally understood why Makino asked them to monitor Moritani Teiji.

After seeing Moriya Teiji enter the gunpowder depot with their own eyes, they were dumbfounded on the spot. Then, the two immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Although they didn't know how Teiji Moriya knew the code for the gunpowder depot, they knew that the current situation seemed to be beyond their control.

I'm afraid this matter is no longer something they can handle!

When Sato and Takagi heard the news, their faces were filled with shock and solemnity.

They didn't expect that Professor Moritani could do such a thing.

Breaking into the gunpowder magazine is definitely not for the sake of simple sightseeing.

The real purpose of this Professor Moritani is probably to steal gunpowder!!
