Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

Toru Amuro looked at the surveillance screenshots.

In the picture, the congressman is wearing a jacket with a striking color that can make people notice him in the crowd.

"I have seen photos of the congressman in his daily life, and he rarely wears bright colors. The incident happened suddenly, and the prison guard was on the second floor. When he saw that the person in the cubicle was gone and there was another person wearing similar clothes running, he subconsciously thought it was Congressman Kawajiri."

"In fact, that wasn't him. It was the organization's 'stand-in' - Councillor Kawajiri, who neglected to exercise and was out for medical treatment due to health problems. He actually didn't have the ability to jump from the second floor and escape."

Toru Amuro spoke very quickly, and he could feel his heart pounding with every word he spoke.

It was something that was so easy to want, but he reacted so late... Was it because of the heavy casualties that disturbed his mind, or was it because he didn't get enough rest these days and his mind was confused?

"The handcuffs that fell in front of the window are also proof."

"According to the prison guards, in order to facilitate the MP to go to the toilet, he handcuffed one hand and handcuffed the other hand to the handrail, but this was very strange - if he wanted to escape, he could just untie one side, but he opened both sides, which was a waste of time. He also threw it in front of the window, which was like telling others that he had escaped."

Feng Jianyu was also confused: "But the prison guard said that the compartment inside was empty at that time."

"There are two single rooms inside. Where is the other one?" asked Toru Amuro.

Yuya Kazami was instantly stuck.

He remembered... oh, he forgot to ask the other party this...

Amuro Toru knew the character of this subordinate very well, and explained calmly: "I suspect that he hid next door while the people outside were deliberately making trouble."

The scoundrel-like young man was looking for trouble on purpose. After being caught by the police, he quickly admitted that a man gave him money to cause trouble for the person who was standing near the toilet at that time.

"Isn't this too risky?" Feng Jianyu's eyes widened. "What if the prison guard pushed the door open to check..."

"No, that prison guard didn't have time to do that." Amuro Toru said calmly, "The other prison guard, the one who was shot dead, was bribed by the organization - or someone from the organization disguised himself as him at the time."

"The organization's people disguised themselves as cleaners and placed special aromatherapy in the toilet, which gave off a stench that ordinary people could not stand. In this way, when the younger generation 'considerately' offered to take care of him alone, the senior would naturally accept this kindness and retreat outside. It was probably at that time that he completely opened his handcuffs."

"——'Remember to leave behind what should be left behind.' This is what the problematic prison guard said to Councillor Kawajiri in prison."

Yuya Kazami had heard this sentence while taking notes.

At that time, he thought that this was a routine reminder from the unlucky guy. After all, some prisoners would take out some bad things when they got the chance to go out. He didn't expect it to be a warning!

"Then comes the more important part of the plan, which exploits the psychology of members of law enforcement."

Yuya Kazami continued to be confused: "Huh?"

"After discovering that the 'councilman' had escaped, the prison guard jumped directly from the second floor to chase him. Kazami, if you were on a mission and saw your colleague chasing a dangerous criminal alone, what would you do?"

"Of course we will go and provide support immediately." Yuya Kazami answered subconsciously.

"Yes, he took advantage of this mentality. He deliberately jumped from the second floor so that the other prison guard would not have time to carefully check the toilet and rush downstairs to help!"

Yuya Kazami finally figured out the ins and outs of the congressman's escape, but there was one thing he still didn't understand.

"Why go to so much trouble? Replace the prison guards, disguise as a cleaner, escape from the second floor...why not just hijack a car on the road?"

"This is what I'm going to tell you to do next." Amuro Toru said, "Go investigate the hospital's inpatients' information to see if there are any important people admitted... You only investigated the staff before, not the patients, right?"

Feng Jianyu was a little ashamed: "Yes, because compared with the relatively fixed staff, the number of patients is too large..."

The public security work is very busy, and only a small number of people are responsible for the Black Organization. Investigating the hospital staff is already an overload of work.

After hearing this explanation, Toru Amuro remained calm.

He can't blame his subordinates entirely for this.

He knew that when Congressman Kawajiri was going out for medical treatment, Rum asked him to look for the missing Binga before he left, so when he heard the notification from the public security department, he didn't take it too seriously and handed it over to them directly.

"Also, have someone search among today's injured. According to your description, after the two prison guards left, some injured people rushed to the second floor. Councillor Kawajiri may have used chemicals or open flames to injure himself and mixed in with them."

"Don't look at the clothes. The material of that coat doesn't look very good. It's easy to crush it and flush it down the toilet... Pay special attention to the family members. If there are people who don't care about the injured but are still accompanying them, pay more attention to them... Send me a copy of the list as well."

Toru Amuro explained everything carefully.

He only hated that he couldn't teleport back there and watch them complete their mission...

This chapter has 1367 references and was written quite smoothly. The next chapter may be stuck_(:з」∠)_

Chapter 137 Bourbon Which Floor Are You On (Part )

Kazami Yuya would absolutely obey Amuro Toru's orders and execute them immediately. After a while, he sent over the list of all the hospitalized patients.

Thinking of helping out a little more, Toru Amuro immediately opened the document.

The list contained the injured person’s name, photo, age, gender, hospitalization time and injury record, but did not include the other person’s specific family and occupation.

Toru Amuro stared at those names, his brain working frantically.

He remembered a lot of information about people that the police or organizations were paying attention to, and maybe there would be some familiar names on it...

……

——There were more important things in the house, and she took the risk to stay there in order to find the floppy disk those people mentioned.

Kudo Shinichi's words gave Amuro Toru a hint.

The organization did not choose the convenient carjacking, but instead let the congressman enter the hospital and designed to keep him there, because there was a more important person in the hospital.

If they wanted to steal something, the organization could directly create a riot in the hospital, causing a large number of people inside to escape or move, and then take this opportunity to steal. But they did not do this, on the contrary, they created more patients to come in, so their target was actually the most people in the hospital!

The hospital staff has checked and found no one related to the organization for the time being; it is unlikely that the patient came to see the doctor today, and the organization could have taken action on their way; the most likely possibility is that the patient has been hospitalized for some time!

This brings up a new problem:

What is the organization going to do with that person?

Why was Kawajiri, a non-combatant congressman, chosen for this mission? What was so special about him?

When will the organization contact the congressman? The police are making a lot of noise in the hospital now. If the organization members lurking inside see this, will they create more chaos?

How much intelligence does Congressman Kawajiri know about the organization?

Toru Amuro looked at the names line by line, very quickly, without missing any.

Although the temperature in the room was very low, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his palms became sweaty. He focused all his attention on the screen and didn't even think about wiping it off.

At the same time, he replayed what happened in Cupido Town today in his mind.

Aipado Central Hospital is famous for treating burns, heart surgery and plastic surgery. It treats many patients with burns and can also help them repair their bodies;

Because the number of injured people increased greatly today, the hospital became a mixed bag. The existing medical staff had to take care of the new injured first, and temporarily had no energy to take care of other patients, and could not immediately notice what was happening in each ward;

Of the three accidents, the chemical accident was the only one that came out of nowhere. Many people were not seriously injured, but their faces were severely burned and disfigured. In order to avoid being discovered and arrested, Councillor Kawajiri also had to be disfigured...

Disfigurement...

...Facial changes?

While in the organization, Toru Amuro had seen members master the amazing disguise technique to carry out missions. Recently, there was a suspicious case around him, and an idea flashed through his mind.

replace!

Could it be that the organization wants Councillor Kawajiri to replace someone? !

Toru Amuro immediately screened the injuries on the list and screened out those with facial injuries.

Soon, a name caught his attention.

Yasunobu Kobayashi.

This is a senior researcher at the Japan High Energy Accelerator Research Institute. He is 45 years old, graduated from Touto University, and is also a visiting professor at Beido University, engaged in nuclear physics research.

The reason he could remember it so clearly was because a few days ago he investigated Kotomine Janna's whereabouts and learned that she was going there, and happened to have interviewed the professor.

Toru Amuro took out his cell phone, but instead of calling Yuya Kazami, he directly searched for the news on the web, and the message popped up quickly.

——A visiting professor from Beihu University came to our school to give a lecture. When he was walking past a teaching building, he was unfortunately hit in the face by chemicals falling from the sky and was admitted to Beihu Central Hospital.

When Toru Amuro saw the time when the news happened, his brows frowned slightly - the accident happened the day after the interview.

The researcher is recovering well, and the injury record in the form shows that he will be able to be discharged from the hospital today.

After finding the suspected target, Toru Amuro was not excited. Instead, he analyzed the situation more calmly.

In the past, organizations often replaced others by disguising themselves, mostly temporarily, and the replacements were mostly ordinary passers-by, hotel waiters, people around the target, and so on.

The identity of a researcher is special and requires extremely high professional knowledge. At the same time, those research institutions have strict entry and exit controls, and many important laboratory entrances and exits are monitored and require fingerprint verification.

And Representative Kawajiri...

When Toru Amuro recalled the information about Congressman Kawajiri, his pupils shrank slightly.

Representative Kawajiri graduated from Touto University, also majoring in physics. It was because of his talent in this field that he was chosen by a demanding family to become their son-in-law. He was a well-known figure in school, one year older than Kobayashi Yasunobu. They were alumni and might know each other!

Toru Amuro's heart began to beat wildly, and he went to look at the injury records again.

He found that in addition to the researcher's face, he also had injuries on his fingers.

When people are suddenly attacked, they will subconsciously reach out to touch the attacked area. This is human instinct. However, this instinct caused the researcher's hands to be stained with a lot of chemicals at that time, and the burns were also serious. He even underwent finger skin grafting surgery.

Human fingerprints generally do not change, but they can change after deep burns or skin grafting.

This change is normal. In other words, if he returns to his post and asks to replace the fingerprint records in the system, the people there will not be suspicious or refuse!

Looking at the photos, after Congressman Kawajiri lost a lot of weight due to illness, their body shapes became somewhat similar; in terms of personality, it is normal for their tempers to become different after being disfigured in an accident; as for family... most researchers are people who stay in research institutions for a long time and have little communication with their families.

All in all, this is indeed a great replacement!

While Toru Amuro called Yuya Kazami and asked him to find someone quickly, he was frantically thinking about why the organization wanted to find the researcher.

The High Energy Accelerator Research Institute was formed by the merger of the Institute of High Energy Physics, the Institute of Nuclear Research of Touto University, and the Meson Science Research Center of Touto University. It is one of Japan's national laboratories.

It conducts research in high-energy physics, nuclear physics and accelerator technology, and one of its professors won the Nobel Prize in Physics with the support of the experimental data it provided.

Military and science are proof of a country's national strength. If a country's scientists are bribed or flee by other countries, it will be a great loss. The public security department will usually pay attention to whether there are spies contacting important scientific researchers in the country.

What exactly does the organization do?

If you really want to get into such a top scientific institution, wouldn’t it be better to just bribe the existing researchers, or train one yourself and send him in?

Do you think it's too easy to be backstabbed? If the scientists take the money and then turn against their own will, or if the trained talents report the organization, the police will definitely do their best to protect them.

Or is this not a long-term mission, and I just need to temporarily get in for a while? There is no need to invest too much money or time?

Finally, there is Kotomine Jonah.
