Conan Rick's Investigator

"Hmph..." Gin snorted coldly, glancing at the woman fiddling with the dressing mirror in the back seat of the car. "I don't know who asked me to come support that old bastard Pisco, but in the end I ended up falling flat on my face."

The woman's voice didn't seem to care, and she continued frivolously, "Yeah, thankfully I covered for him before the cops came to question him. I even gave him a handkerchief in the staff restroom tank."

At this time, Gin turned slightly and glanced at the woman who was putting on makeup.

"Before he died, that old man, in order to increase his chances of survival, told me that he knew clues to find Shirley and that he had served 'that gentleman' for many years..."

"He also told me that you had a pleasant conversation with a strange foreigner at the conference?"

"Belmod?"

The woman called "Vermouth" closed her makeup mirror and a charming smile appeared on her face.

"Why...are you jealous?"

As soon as Vermouth finished speaking, Gin quickly took out a pistol and pointed the black muzzle at Vermouth's head.

"Don't think that just because you're favored by 'that gentleman' you can do whatever you want. If I determine that you're a threat to the organization, I can still kill you."

"The police's response speed to this assassination attempt was abnormal. Even though the woman was already imprisoned by Pisco, the police outside still received an anonymous call."

"Maybe it's those tails you brought from America..."

Gin's intelligence network is also very powerful. Just when he evacuated the old building, he received news that someone had made a second anonymous call to the police center.

However, Gin still had no idea what kind of private call Inspector Megure received.

Before Gin could finish his words, Vermouth impatiently pushed the gun aside with her hand.

"That man is a third-rate director from the United States. I just discussed with him about making a new film on a whim."

"Anyway, I'm going to continue being an active movie star. Finding some promising directors to make movies with will also help organize subsequent actions..."

Gin's eyes moved slightly, he snorted indifferently, put the pistol back into his pocket, and accepted this explanation.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the elder brother and the elder sister had eased a little, Vodka, who was holding the steering wheel, finally dared to speak.

"Are you going back to the United States this time?"

"No, I don't want to act in any drama for the time being..."

Vermouth took out a cigarette made for women called Essex and lit it up.

"I plan to enjoy my leisure time in Japan first and figure out what I've been worried about..."

……

Qin Zhibo had already taken a taxi and explained to the driver that his daughter was sick and needed to go to the hospital where she usually went to see a doctor.

When the driver heard the request, he took another look at the pitiful little face in the cradle, immediately yelled, stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.

Not long after, they drove Qin Hui and the other two back from Beihu Town to Mihua Town 2-chome.

Qin Zhibo naturally came to the hospital where Ma Chengshi was.

Coming to this hospital was a last resort.

After all, Haibara Ai was shot. If she went to a big hospital for treatment, the doctor would definitely call the police, and subsequent problems would be very troublesome.

Neither Qin Zhibo nor Haibara Ai herself wanted to get into this kind of trouble.

Qin Zhibo ran to the hospital with Haibara Ai in his arms and rang the doorbell.

After a while, Ma Chengshi's voice came from inside.

"I'm coming!"

When the door opened, Ma Sheng was really frightened by the person standing outside. He subconsciously took a step back with a frightened expression on his face.

"You, you are..."

Qin Zhibo then remembered that he was still wearing a human skin mask, so he quickly tore it off.

Witnessing the "falling out" between Qin Zhibo and Ma Chengshi, he was stunned and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Qin Zhibo directly handed Huiyuan Ai to him and said, "She is injured..."

When he saw the injured person, Masamichi's expression immediately became serious.

Chapter 377 Huiyuan Ai, such a poor girl...

Dr. Cheng Shi took Huihara Ai from Qin Zhibo's arms and quickly placed her on the hospital's new treatment bed. Only then did he recognize the blood-stained face.

"Isn't this the little girl from Dr. Agasa's family?"

"Why is she..."

Cheng Shi opened the swaddling clothes that wrapped Haibara Ai and was immediately shocked by the scene before him.

The young body, which was still developing, was covered in stains and blood. There were three gunshot wounds on the left shoulder, right shoulder, and left side of the abdomen. There were also abrasions of varying degrees on the face, knees, thighs, and other parts of the body, as well as bruises from the impact.

It's heartbreaking to see such a little girl suffering from injuries that even adults can hardly bear.

And as soon as he opened the swaddling clothes, Cheng Shi smelled a pungent smell of alcohol.

"Mr. Qin, what is going on?" Cheng Shizhi asked.

"Something happened. I'll explain it later..." Qin Zhibo took off his coat and walked to the examination bed. "How is it? Can it be cured?"

Cheng Shi scanned the body on the examination bed while saying, "First, we need to enlarge the wound, clean the skin edges, remove necrotic and inactive tissues, check if there are any bullets left in the body, and check if there are any broken nerves and blood vessels..."

"After the drainage color returns to clear, the debridement is complete and the wound can be sutured."

Dr. Chengshi got busy preparing anesthetics, tetanus shots, and various surgical instruments and equipment.

Qin Zhibo stood two meters away from the examination bed, ready to help Cheng Shi at any time, and silently reviewed this trip to Beihu Hotel in his mind.

Obviously, the assassination attempt on Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi was an operation of the Black Organization, and the assassin sent by the Black Organization was Kenzo Masuyama.

Although it is not known from where Conan and Haibara Ai got this information, it is likely that they recruited Inspector Megure.

At this moment, Qin Zhibo received a notification that the task was completed.

[Congratulations on completing the side mission]

[Task Completion Rating: C]

[Acquire 500 general skill proficiency]

[Rating Reward: 100 General Skill Proficiency]

Less than half an hour before the end of the task, the task was finally completed.

This shows that the police have completely confirmed that Kenzo Masuyama is the murderer in this case and has taken him under control.

But this surprised Qin Zhibo a little.

When he first entered room 404, Qin Zhibo thought that the person who had been secretly torturing Haibara Ai was Kenzo Masuyama.

But when he walked out of the room holding Haibara Ai and happened to meet Kurosawa Jin and Uozuka Saburo who had arrived, he realized that this case was not a simple one.

If these two people were Kenzo Masuyama's accomplices, would they allow him to be caught by the police?

Qin Zhibo quickly ran to the TV in the front hall and turned it on. It was broadcasting a live broadcast of the fire at Beihu Hotel.

The young reporter was explaining the fire in the old building of Beihu Hotel to the camera.

"So far, the fire has been basically brought under control, and the police have confirmed that one of the dead is Kenzo Masuyama, chairman of the automobile company."

"At the same time, the police have also determined that Kenzo Masuyama is the murderer who killed Councillor Tōguchi tonight..."

Just two short sentences, but packed with a lot of key information.

Kenzo Masuyama is already dead, but Qin Zhibo is very sure that his sneak attack did not take Kenzo Masuyama's life, otherwise there would be a body on it for investigation.

It is obvious that the murderers and arsonists were Kurosawa Jin and Uozuka Saburo.

These two people killed their accomplices because they probably knew that the police had key evidence and wanted to silence them and destroy the bodies.

This immoral behavior is very consistent with the pitifully low social credit of these two people.

According to Qin Zhibo's observation, this organization whose scientific name is "Black Brotherhood" should be divided into two parts.

Some of them are celebrities with extremely high social credit, such as Kenzo Masuyama, who use their high social credit to appear openly in various public places and carry out the organization's tasks.

The other part is socially invisible people like Kurosawa Jin and Uozuka Saburo, who specifically lurk in the dark corners of society and carry out shady tasks.

In addition, Qin Zhibo now carefully recalled what happened during the police interrogation and felt that Sharon Wynyard should also be a member of the organization.

Judging from the photo of the shooting, Kenzo Masuyama used a handkerchief to cover the flame from the muzzle of the gun. As the bullet was fired, the handkerchief would inevitably be carried away.

In other words, the focus of Inspector Megure's interrogation was actually to confirm the purple handkerchiefs on the eight people, which was probably a suggestion from Conan.

It's a pity that I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates...

Inspector Megure had a problem in execution. He did not check everyone's handkerchiefs at the same time, which led to Sharon Wynyard being the first to realize the police's intention and giving her handkerchief to Kenzo Masuyama while going to the toilet.

Although the hotel's public toilets are divided into men's and women's, there is only one staff toilet in the hotel's office area, so it is easy to hide things in it without being discovered.

After thinking this through, Qin Zhibo could add Sharon Wynyard to the Black Organization's personnel list.

Kenzo Masuyama, Sharon Wynyard, Jin Kurosawa, Saburo Uozuka...

Now Qin Zhibo has learned the names of four members of the Black Organization.

Just then, Cheng Shi's cry was heard from the treatment room.

Qin Zhibo hurried over to check. It turned out that Chengshi asked him to help wipe the blood off Haibara Ai's body with an alcohol cotton ball. He was preparing for surgery.

In order to prevent secondary infection, Cheng Shi also prepared a complete set of surgical clothes for Qin Zhibo and cleaned the bacteria on his body.

The two people, one in front and one behind, used more than half a trash can of alcohol cotton balls to restore Haibara Ai's body to a smooth state.

The two men did not have any evil thoughts about the little loli's body in front of them.

Instead, Dr. Cheng Shi kept looking at the little girl with a slightly frown on the examination bed with a look of pity.

Dr. Cheng Shi didn't know that Haibara Ai was a girl who had grown into a small girl, so in his eyes, she was just an ordinary little girl who couldn't be more ordinary.

Maybe she's a little precocious and her background is a bit mysterious, but that doesn't change the fact that she's still young.

However, such a young body that should still be growing up healthily under the care of its parents has suffered pain that even adults would find difficult to bear.

First, he ran away from home because of domestic violence, came here to live with relatives, but was shot...

In the eyes of Dr. Cheng Shi, the childhood of the little girl Haibara Ai was undoubtedly miserable.

This reminded Dr. Cheng Shi of his own childhood.

At that time, I had to live in the hospital for a long time because of my weak body. I couldn’t run freely in the sun like normal children. The only things that accompanied me all year round were the white sheets and the smell of disinfectant in the hospital.

But when I was about to be discharged from the hospital, the family I had been looking forward to seeing...

After the preliminary preparations were completed, Cheng Shi forced himself to put aside all distracting thoughts and began the operation.

Chapter 378: Indescribable Physique, Breaking the Defense Phone (4k Plus)

The surgeon in charge of the operation was Ma Chengshi, and Qin Zhibo was responsible for assisting him by handing him the scalpel, wiping sweat, etc.

Thanks to his medical skills, Qin Zhibo is not very skilled in doing these nurse's jobs, but at least he can do it.

Cheng used a scalpel to cut open the gunshot wound on Haibara Ai's right shoulder, and looked inside the wound, and suddenly found something wrong.

"Her blood vessels and nerves...why weren't they damaged?"

"What do you mean?" Qin Zhibo came closer and looked into the bloody hole.

Cheng Shi used a scalpel to part the flesh and explained, "Look, the penetrating wound at this location should have severed this blood vessel, but now the blood vessel is intact, and so are the nerves."

"The tissues where the bullet rubbed against showed no signs of devitalization or necrosis, as if..."

Cheng Shi thought for two seconds before figuring out how to describe it.

“It’s like it’s healed…”

Qin Zhibo narrowed his eyes slightly and recalled that when he first found Huibara Ai, her body was wrapped in a large cleaning uniform.

Adult clothes...

Could it be that she had recovered to her adult body before?
