Conan Rick's Investigator

"Mr. Nishino participated in this incident from beginning to end. He is the person most capable of sniping Kaito Kid and killing Mr. Samukawa Ryu."

"In the case of the sniper attack on Kaito Kidd, Mr. Nishino, due to his work, knew in advance that Sergei, the secretary of the Russian Embassy, was among the visitors yesterday. He then prepared a VSS in advance to frame Mr. Sergei."

Hearing this, Sergei on the side looked surprised.

"As for the assassination of Mr. Samukawa this time, it was because I saw the Maria ring on Mr. Samukawa's neck on the deck, and that's when I became malicious."

"He happened to suspect that Mr. Hanchuan had recorded the key evidence that he was Shi Kaobing, so after killing Mr. Hanchuan, he took away the ring and the videotape at the same time."

Kogoro Mouri's reasoning impressed everyone, except Conan who was standing aside with his chin held high in his hand as if in deep thought.

Mr. Nishino traveled extensively overseas before becoming a secretary, and he is fluent in multiple languages, which does sound a bit like an elusive international criminal.

Moreover, it seems reasonable for Kogoro Maori to put the blame on the Russian secretary Sergei for preparing the VSS sniper rifle in advance.

Although the bullet shell was picked up by himself when he accidentally saw "Xiao Hei" committing a crime, if the bullet hit Kaito Kidd's body, he could still tell from the bullet head that the bullet that hit Kidd was a special 9×39mm bullet.

But since he had already taken away the videotape containing evidence that he was Scott, why not just destroy it? Why did he run away?

If he wanted to escape, it would be equivalent to admitting that he was a Scott soldier. Why would he take the videotape with him?

Conan asked the doubts in his heart and was immediately taught a lesson by Kogoro Mouri.

"You're so stupid! Nishino Masato definitely doesn't show his true face normally. He probably has a human skin mask or something like that on his face, just like Kidd."

"Mr. Kankawa's videotape must have accidentally recorded Nishino Masato's true appearance, so he had to take the tape away."

"As for why he ran away, it was because if the police still couldn't identify the murderer after the ship docked, they would definitely conduct a comprehensive investigation, including identity investigation, gun smoke reaction, etc."

"By then, his fake identity will be exposed. If he doesn't run away now, when will he?"

Kogoro Mouri explained Conan's doubts in a few words, and made Inspector Megure, who had been listening on the side, completely agree with this reasoning.

"Issue a wanted order immediately for Shi Kaobing!"

"But it's been a while since he left on the lifeboat, and it's probably hard to find him now..." Kogoro Mouri muttered, holding his chin.

Everything seems to be set in stone, and Masato Nishino is Shi Kaobing.

Shiro Suzuki slumped down on the sofa, his expression completely stunned. Even this chairman of the consortium who had seen a lot of ups and downs could not imagine that he would actually employ an international criminal as his secretary for more than half a year.

What's even more terrifying is that the secretary he faces every day is wearing a fake face, and he has no idea.

Seeing her father like this, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but worry, and suggested that she would stay with her father and not go to the Yokosuka castle.

At this time, Shiratori Jinzaburo suggested that Shikaoping might also be coveting another "Egg of Memories" in the castle, so he applied to go to the castle, and Inspector Megure readily agreed.

Upon learning that Shi Kaobing had escaped by boat, everyone on the boat breathed a sigh of relief.

The appearance and disappearance of Sikao Bing seemed fleeting, and everything continued according to the previously planned Yokosuka Castle sightseeing plan.

Only Conan still has some doubts about Scorbin's identity.

He didn't know where this suspicion came from, but his intuition told Conan that the truth was definitely not that simple.

But where is the doubt?

Conan, who was a little at his wit's end, looked around, wanting to see how Qin Zhibo would react to the outcome of the Shi Kaobing incident, but found that Qin Zhibo had left the hall at some point.

Never mind. Lately, whenever that guy's involved in a case, I always seem to rely on him to get to the bottom of things, making it seem like I'm no match for him...

This time I will find the suspicious points myself and arrest Scott!

Thinking that Scoobing was a criminal who specialized in sniping people's right eyes, Conan subconsciously covered his right eye.

This is the right eye that can see the scenery and maintain symmetry with the left eye!

Conan didn't want to lose his right eye, so he went to the telephone area on the ship and prepared to call Dr. Agasa to ask if there was any invention that could protect his right eye.

But as soon as he ran to the telephone area, Conan saw rows of empty telephone booths with only one person making a phone call.

It’s Qin Zhibo!

Why was he on the phone here when the police and detectives were in the lobby?

Relying on his short stature, Conan sneaked to the door of Qin Zhibo's telephone booth and listened attentively to the conversation inside.

Qin Zhibo: "Well, just bring these things to me."

After saying this, Qin Zhibo hung up the phone and turned around to see Conan who was eavesdropping.

Conan: "..."

In order to hide the embarrassment of being caught eavesdropping, Conan quickly scratched his head and laughed innocently: "I came here to make a phone call too, ahahaha..."

"Then you fight."

Qin Zhibo ignored Conan and left the phone area directly.

Conan looked at Qin Zhibo's back and had another doubt in his mind.

Who did he ask to deliver what?

Damn it! If only I had come earlier so I could eavesdrop more!

Although feeling a little annoyed, Conan still jumped up, picked up the receiver of the phone, and dialed Dr. Agasa's home.

When he expressed his wish for his right eye to be bulletproof, Dr. Agasa immediately agreed: "That's no problem! I have some bulletproof sheets that I made by accident. Just cut them out and install them on the frame to make bulletproof glasses!"

Conan: Could something like this be made accidentally?

Without saying a word about his inner complaints, Conan ordered, "Then Doctor, quickly make me a pair of bulletproof glasses and send them to the castle on the mountain in Yokosuka..."

Before Conan could finish his words, an older man's voice came quietly from behind him.

"Please give me one too."

Chapter 225 A bottle of toffee-flavored sherry...

Frightened by the sound, Conan turned around in shock and looked at Qin Zhibo behind him.

When did he come from behind me?

Why didn’t I hear anything?

Conan was secretly surprised at Qin Zhibo's stealth skills, but in fact, approaching Conan from behind did not require very advanced skills.

It is well known that Conan is defenseless against the back of his head.

Dr. Agasa's voice came out anxiously from the receiver of the phone.

"Hey?"

"Hey! Shinichi?"

Conan quickly grabbed the leaky microphone and pressed it against his ear, speaking quickly, "Doctor, please make me another pair of those glasses. That's it."

After saying that, Conan quickly hung up the phone and fled the scene.

Qin Zhibo also achieved his goal and got his girlfriend a pair of bulletproof glasses.

……

On the other side of the phone, Dr. Agasa immediately started working after hanging up.

I was busy until 1 a.m., and at the suggestion of Haibara Ai, I went to sleep first to avoid driving while fatigued the next day.

I got up in the morning and continued making it, and finally finished two pairs of bulletproof glasses before noon.

"I've doubled the thickness of the bulletproof glass. Although I haven't tested it, theoretically it should be able to withstand live ammunition."

Sitting on the sofa, Huiyuan Ai elegantly held her coffee and said nonchalantly, "It's better to do a test. If the strength is not enough, the detective's brain might be shot through."

"Uh..." Dr. Agasa imagined in his mind what it would be like if Conan's brain was shot through by a bullet.

"That being said, where can I get a gun to conduct experiments?"

Haibara Ai recalled the figure of the blond man in her mind.

If it were him, this kind of experiment should be easy to conduct...

With neither the time nor the conditions to conduct experiments, Dr. Agasa simply followed Conan's instructions, took the new invention he had put together overnight, and drove a Beetle to Yokosuka.

But not long after leaving the house, Haibara Ai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, discovered three big troubles hidden in the back seat.

"Dr. Agasa! You want to abandon us again, right?"

"That Conan guy must be trying to take the spotlight again!"

"That's right! We won't let Conan succeed!"

The three who spoke in order were Ayumi Yoshida, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, and Genta Kojima.

There was no other choice, so Dr. Agasa could only take the three little ones, plus Haibara Ai, a total of four little ones, to Yokosuka.

But before entering Yokosuka city, Dr. Agasa's Beetle vintage car broke down and stopped on the side of the road.

"Oh no! I forgot to do the scheduled maintenance on this car yesterday!"

"Really? Why does Dr. Agasa's car always break down?" Yoshida Ayumi complained, "If it really doesn't work, just replace it."

"Could it be that Dr. Agasa doesn't have money to buy a new car?" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya asked in confusion.

Before Dr. Agasa could answer, Huihara Ai explained, "Old people like Dr. Agasa just like these old cars that often break down."

"Because seeing this car is like seeing myself, it reminds me that my parts are not that reliable anymore..."

Haibara's sad words made Dr. Agasa speechless and helpless.

Although he sounded a bit sarcastic, Dr. Agasa knew that Ai was just trying to remind him to take care of his health.

But what about old people... I'm only 52 years old!

……

On the road, Dr. Agasa and the four little ones stopped a car.

However, when the passing driver saw that it was a white-haired old man and four creatures whose scientific name is "bear children", he sped away.

"Really...why don't they stop and give us a ride?"

Yoshida Ayumi looked frustrated, while Huiyuan beside her explained sadly, "It must be that the way you guys were making such a fuss on the roadside trying to stop a car scared the driver, and he thought you were being naughty."

"If you all stand by the roadside like me, and Dr. Agasa stops the car by himself, the chances of success should be higher."

At Haibara Ai's suggestion, the three little ones pretended to be good kids and stood on the side of the road. Dr. Agasa raised his hand again to make a gesture for a ride, and finally a Ford Explorer UN46 came.

A silver-gray four-door car slowly stopped in front of Dr. Agasa, the window rolled down, and inside was a man who looked very elegant.

"Our car broke down, could you give me a ride?"

The man smiled faintly, "I have some urgent business to attend to, so if I just drive you to the town in Yokosuka, it should be no problem."

"That's enough! We can take a taxi once we get into town."

Dr. Agasa sat in the passenger seat, and the four little ones sat in the back seat.

The car started up again. The man glanced through the rearview mirror at the four little creatures in the back seat, each with a different appearance. He smiled and said, "Is one of these four children your grandson?"

Dr. Agasa was a little helpless and said that these were all his friends' children.

The man nodded, and deliberately glanced at Haibara Ai again, with a smile on his face.

"That lady with brown hair should be mixed-race, right?"

Dr. Agasa stared in surprise and glanced at Haibara Ai in the back seat.

Strictly speaking, the two of them are not familiar enough to understand each other, so Dr. Agasa does not know Haibara Ai's life experience.

"What is a mixed-race person?" asked Ayumi Yoshida, who didn't understand the meaning.

"It's a child born from different races." Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko asked, "Is Haibara-san a mixed-race child?"

Ai Haibara looked surprised and did not answer.

Because I am indeed a Japanese-British mixed-race.

But no one has ever mentioned that I look like a mixed-race person.

How did this man figure that out?

Seeing that his bold guess had frightened the little boy, the man laughed generously and said, "No offense, it's just that I have a friend who is also mixed-race..."

"Mixed-bloods have a unique beauty that's hard to describe, different from pure-bloods. I seem to see that beauty in you, so I made this guess."
