"what?"

Akiba Reiko glanced at the time through her sleeve. "It's about time to go back."

"Yeah."

Yusuke Suzuki started walking. "Let's go together then. I can take you home."

Reiko Akiba didn't stand on ceremony and followed slowly. "Then, as a matter of courtesy, I should invite you upstairs for a seat and a cup of tea."

Yusuke Suzuki immediately replied, "Then, out of politeness, I should decline and leave directly."

......

The two walked and talked for about an hour before arriving at the entrance of the forest park.

"Are you sure you don't need me to take you home?" Yusuke Suzuki asked, pulling out his car keys.

Akiba Reiko nodded gently and smiled, "Really, there's no need. I still need to buy some things on the way, so I won't trouble you."

Seeing this, Suzuki Yusuke said no more and turned to leave.

I had only taken a few steps when I heard a sound behind me again.

"Mr. Suzuki, if your company still needs me after this concert, I can participate in the program recording."

Yusuke Suzuki stopped and turned around. "The mentors are all permanent and won't be changed anytime soon."

Then, he changed the subject, "But EW will definitely contact you first when there is a suitable cooperation opportunity."

There's really nothing more to say at this point.

Yusuke Suzuki left again.

The concert they are going to perform at this time is not based on the plot of "Frightening Score".

He asked me directly on the way.

This is also reasonable.

After all, Yusuke Suzuki remembered that before "Score of Fear" was "The Blue Coffin", and before that was "The Detective's Requiem".

However, it seems that "Detective's Requiem" is really gone now.

Reiko Shimizu's current life trajectory has absolutely nothing to do with the plot of the theatrical version.

We can't possibly create two more Shimizu Reikos.

But what if?

If Shimizu Reiko continues to act with her scapegoat team, wouldn't this movie be directly linked to the organization?

As the leader of the opposing side, Vermouth probably won't remain hidden the whole time.

In addition to Suzuki Yusuke's presence and the organization's current suspicions about Mouri Kogoro, Gin might have to make an appearance.

From the perspective of simply controlling the situation, Yusuke Suzuki would rather this theatrical version simply disappear.

But he can't make that decision; it depends entirely on whether the world's will wants to cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Yusuke Suzuki took out his phone and sent an email to Vermouth's private phone.

I don't have time to confirm Kir's location for you later. Let Shimizu Reiko assist you.

Tokyo.

The room next to Judy's.

Vermouth grabbed her phone from beside her pillow to check it.

Because she was still half asleep, she fumbled around for her phone before finally finding it, and the strap of her pajama top slipped down with the movement.

After reading the contents, she rubbed her eyes and sat up.

"Why did you suddenly bring up Reiko...?"

Vermouth murmured something to herself, deep in thought.

She never expected to get help from Yusuke Suzuki, nor did she expect to get an explanation or an excuse.

But then the other party sent an email making excuses.

But given her understanding of Yusuke Suzuki, this was quite unusual.

But she had absolutely no idea what the purpose behind this was.

What kind of conspiracy could there be?

Forget it.

Vermouth casually tossed her phone aside.

continue to sleep.

I dressed up as a ghost yesterday and scared Judy half the night.

They only come back to stay once in a while these days, so this is a rare opportunity.

As for tracking the other party...

What kind of tracking?

The operation just ended, shouldn't they be on vacation now?

Let Shimizu Reiko handle the investigation.

Yusuke, your older sister is doing her best to satisfy you right now.

......

the other side.

After taking a shower at home, Suzuki Yusuke headed to the detective agency.

Vermouth did not reply to him.

This can be considered an attitude, but it's just a bit hard to confirm.

Park the car and go upstairs.

The bumbling detective was busy betting on horse races again, completely oblivious to Suzuki Yusuke's arrival.

Two minutes passed.

Kogoro Mouri's face showed a complex expression containing shock, disappointment, and blankness. He slumped down, his head hitting the table in front of him with a dull thud.

He died suddenly?

Yusuke Suzuki sat on the sofa, inwardly grumbling, but did not get up to check.

"How...how could we have lost again...?"

Kogoro Mouri's sullen voice drifted over, "Has my legendary 16-game winning streak come to an end...? I'm not reconciled... I'm so not reconciled!!!"

"Teacher, try to calm down."

At that moment, Yusuke Suzuki offered a word of comfort.

Hearing the voice, the bumbling detective looked up abruptly, rubbed his eyes hard, and stood up, leaning on the table for support. "Yusuke...when did you get here!?"

Yusuke Suzuki: "..."

I think I'll leave.

I really can't get along with the bumbling detective.

Before he could get up, Kogoro Mori strode over and shouted, "Come on, let's go drink with your master!"

After half an hour.

The two arrived at their destination.

"This is a wonderful place that I recently discovered."

Kogoro Mouri sat cross-legged on the ground, swayed from side to side, then lowered his voice and turned his gaze to the side, "Look at the proprietress over there."

"Wow~~~ She still has a certain charm, she's got real allure!"

"Isn't your teacher's wife much better than her?"

Yusuke Suzuki poured the wine for him. "Teacher, please just say what's on your mind."

The bumbling detective chose an izakaya he'd never been to before; it was sparsely populated and located on the edge of the street.

This is completely out of step with my teacher's usual habits.

"Hahaha......"

Kogoro Mouri chuckled, scratching the back of his head, then turned serious and pulled a bullet from his suit pocket. "Take a look at this."

7.62×51mm NATO ammunition.

It was fired from Yusuke Suzuki's Remington M24 sniper rifle.

In criminal investigation, there is a technique called bullet trace examination.

The marks on a bullet can indicate the rifling of a gun.

Rifling is to a firearm what fingerprints are to a human.

Even for guns of the same model, the wear on the rifling after a bullet is fired will be different.

Police can trace the source of the gun by examining information such as bullets and bullet marks.

Therefore, after an organization carries out its operations, the spent cartridge cases are usually recycled and disposed of.

Yusuke Suzuki played with the bullet for a while, then asked, "Where did you find this?"

Chapter 742 What exactly can lure the boss?

Where was this found?

Since Kogoro Mouri chose to tell his good disciple about it, he naturally wouldn't hide it from him.

He downed the drink in one gulp, exhaling a breath of stale air. "On the rooftop of the firm."

As he spoke, the bumbling detective poured himself another glass and continued, "The day before yesterday, after I returned from Professor Agasa's house, not long afterward, the TV suddenly lost signal."
