At this time, the mouse wheel further enlarged the photo and finally stopped at the face of the handsome boy.

The dark figure covered his left eye and used his remaining eyeball to carefully observe the young face in the photo.

After a while, his body gradually relaxed, and he leaned back against the chair behind him, muttering in a deep voice.

"Kudo Shinichi...?"

After he finished speaking, he picked up the phone next to the computer and typed a text message.

send.

……

Kudo's house, storage room on the first floor.

Conan stood in the corridor with his head slightly lowered, thinking alone.

Although the murderer has been caught now, the outcome of the case has not yet been decided.

First, we have to get the memory card, and second, we have to find the undercover lurking in the police.

Although Qin Zhibo had said before that this matter was not the highest priority, once the memory card was obtained by his side, the policeman who was replaced by the organization's undercover agent would completely lose his value.

By then, I'm afraid my life will be in danger.

Although it is not yet clear who the replaced police officer is, we still have to find a way to rescue him.

While Conan was thinking, Qin Zhibo also walked out of the room.

Conan immediately raised his head and looked through the crack in the door before it closed.

The murderer was seen tied to a chair, his head drooping listlessly, with some red marks on his face.

It seems that Qin Zhibo did resort to lynching.

But there is no other way, extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.

Conan is still very open-minded when it comes to minor legal issues that may be violated during the investigation.

"How about it?"

"I have confessed everything..."

Qin Zhibo went to the toilet to wash his hands and briefly explained the motive of the whole case.

It turns out that this man named "Motokami Kazuki" had no direct connection with the victim.

He once had a younger sister named Nanako Motogami, who eloped with a man named Kousuke Mizutani and left home a few years ago.

On the Tanabata Festival two years ago, Nanako Motokami and Kousuke Mizutani stayed at the Kyoto Orihime Hotel.

That night, a major fire broke out in the hotel and his sister Nanako Motokami was killed.

Mizutani Kosuke escaped the disaster because he happened to be out at the time.

However, since the year before last, every time the Motogami family held a memorial service for Nanako, they would receive seven anonymous flower bouquets.

Motokami Kazuki suspected that this incident was related to the death of his sister, so he investigated the sender of the seven bouquets of flowers.

At the exhibition of painter Sumire Shindo, he accidentally came across the conversation between Sumire Shindo and Ryuuzaki, and learned that the people who sent the anonymous bouquets were all guests staying at the Origanum Hotel on the day of the fire.

There were eight people in total who wanted to take the elevator downstairs, but the elevator could only carry seven people at most.

So Nanako took the initiative to get off the elevator and eventually died in the fire.

In this regard, Motokami Kazuki believed that these seven people were the cause of his sister's death and their crime was unforgivable.

In addition, he collected the remains of seven people in order to frame the person he thought was the culprit - his sister's boyfriend, Mizutani Kosuke.

If Mizutani Kosuke hadn't persuaded his sister to elope, her death would not have happened.

In order to persuade Mizutani Kosuke to surrender and commit suicide, he told Mizutani Kosuke that these seven people had joined forces to kill Nanako.

And Mizutani Hirosuke has agreed.

"He originally wanted to hide this from me, but in fact, with a little reasoning, you will know that things are not that simple."

"If these seven people pushed his sister down the elevator, at most one or two people would send anonymous flowers, but not all of them..."

In order to make Motokami Kazuki understand the consequences of lying, Qin Zhibo chose to teach him a lesson with his fists.

After hearing the murderer's motive, Conan was slightly moved.

The people his sister risked her life to save were all killed by him...

At this time, Qin Zhibo changed the subject and said, "I rescued a person in a park in Kanagawa Prefecture. I think he has been rescued by now."

“I believe the police will soon get this information and know the identity of the murderer and that the murderer is likely to have been abducted.”

"In order to save the police officer who was replaced by the organization, it is time to make a decision."

What Qin Zhibo said was exactly what Conan was thinking about just now.

"Then what do you mean?"

"I mean you go to his home in Chiba Prefecture first. The memory card and other victims' belongings are now buried in a park near his home."

"I want to pretend to be the 'murderer' and surrender myself to the police..."

When Conan heard Qin Zhibo's plan, his face was stunned.

His task was relatively simple, but if Qin Zhibo disguised himself as the "murderer" and turned himself in, it meant facing the police's siege.

Of course, Conan also knew that this was the best way to catch the undercover agent of that organization.

Because once the murderer appears, the organization's undercover agents will definitely find a way to contact the murderer alone in order to obtain the memory card.

Whoever appears in front of the "murderer" alone at that time will be the undercover agent of the organization!

"no!"

Conan's face was full of seriousness, "What if you..."

"Don't you have confidence in me?"

Before Conan could finish, Qin Zhibo asked back.

"Do you think I'd lose to that 'Irish'?"

"..."

Conan fell silent because he really couldn't imagine Qin Zhibo losing to someone.

And in order to rescue a policeman who is imprisoned by the organization, this is also something that someone must do.

"Okay, since there's no objection, then let's do it this way."

"And I do need some time to prepare..."

Qin Zhibo patted Conan on the shoulder and left.

……

At the Tropical Paradise, a large number of police cars surrounded the entrance of the park.

The police, led by Manager Megure and Matsumoto, entered the park and searched it. After interrogating and questioning all the staff in the park, they finally came to a conclusion.

"It seems that the connection between the murderer and the victim is not because of this paradise..."

"But……"

Just as Megure was about to start analyzing, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

As soon as I picked up the phone, I received an exciting news.

"What? The insider has been found!"

"Well...I know..."

As soon as Megure hung up the phone, Manager Matsumoto came forward to inquire about the situation.

Megure immediately reported: "The painter named Shindo Sumire has been found. She was kidnapped by the murderer and taken to the sports park in Ayase City, Kanagawa Prefecture. She is currently under the protection of the local police..."

"Kidnapped by the murderer..."

Manager Matsumoto murmured, "Does that mean she knows the identity of the murderer?"

"Yes." Megure nodded with certainty, "The murderer is Motokami Kazuki, the brother of one of the victims in the fire accident at the Orihime Hotel in Kyoto two years ago."

"The other victims were also guests staying in the same hotel that year..."

Manager Matsumoto suddenly interrupted Megure, seemingly uninterested in the specific motive, and changed the subject by asking, "Since this person named Shindou Sumire had been kidnapped by the murderer, why was she able to escape?"

Megure was also obviously stunned by Manager Matsumoto's sudden change of subject, and then replied: "It is said that a kind-hearted person rescued her..."

Manager Matsumoto asked solemnly, "Has that kind-hearted person been found?"

Megure shook his head, "No..."

Upon hearing this answer, an elusive light flashed in Manager Matsumoto's eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his mind.

Just then, Megure's phone rang again.

Megure picked up the phone and his expression changed drastically after hearing just one sentence.

"what!"

"The murderer turned himself in!"

Manager Matsumoto, who was standing nearby, immediately glanced sideways and cast a scrutinizing look.

"...I understand. We'll be there soon..."

Megure hung up the phone and immediately reported to Manager Matsumoto.

"A man who calls himself 'Motokami Kazuki' turned himself in to the Metropolitan Police Department and said he was already inside the Tokyo Tower."

"But he demanded that only one police officer go up to the tower's observation deck to meet him, otherwise he would commit suicide."

Matsumoto's eyes narrowed again, and then he made an announcement.

"Okay, everyone, hurry to Tokyo Tower immediately!"

……

A yellow Beetle was speeding on the dim road.

Although the accelerator is almost at the bottom, the Beetle is still not very fast due to the performance of the vehicle.

"Shinichi, what should we do if we find the memory card that contains the list of the organization's undercover agents?"

Although Dr. Agasa knew that this was the key item to defeat the organization, Conan never told him how to use it specifically.

"I am not sure as well……"

"We should give it to Qin Zhibo. He should be able to handle it."

Conan thought of the meeting in London. If investigative organizations around the world cooperate, the importance of this list would be self-evident.

However, even so, the value of this list is only to pull out the wedges that the organization has planted in various investigative organizations, but it cannot really shake the organization itself.

Thinking of this, Conan felt a little tired.

But at least it's a good start...

"Doctor, when you came out, didn't that Huiyuan guy ask you where you were going?"

At this time, Conan suddenly asked about Haibara Ai.

Dr. Agasa controlled the steering wheel and said, "Ai is staying at Dr. Chengshi's house tonight and she won't be coming back..."

Conan nodded slightly, "Oh..."

Fortunately, Haibara Ai is not here.

Because tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

……

Tokyo Tower, Observation Deck.

Qin Zhibo stood alone in front of the glass of the observation deck, looking at the police cars arriving one after another below, surrounding the area so tightly that no one could get through.

If I wasn't the real murderer, I would really feel like I'm at the end of my rope...

Qin Zhibo stood in front of the glass, stretching his waist.

Through the slightly reflective mirror, what was shown was not Qin Zhibo's real face, but a human skin mask.
