Conan Rick's Investigator

"Hey? What is this?"

Megure finally noticed the strange symbols on the file bag. "Circle, cross, triangle, could this be a death note left by the deceased?"

At this moment, Teacher Judy also had a flash of inspiration and said mischievously, "I think I've seen this somewhere..."

Everyone's eyes lit up, and Inspector Megure quickly asked expectantly: "What did you say? Where did you see it?"

Teacher Judy put her hands together and made a cute expression. "Controller! I saw it on the game controller~"

Qin Zhibo: "..." Sony, you are guilty of a heinous crime!

When Megure heard this clue, he immediately felt like he had found a treasure. He quickly turned to the office worker and asked, "Is there anyone in your company who particularly likes to play games?"

The office worker thought for a moment, "I'm not too sure about this..."

"Alright!" Megure waved his hand and gave Takagi an order, "Go and find out who in the company really enjoys playing games!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Takagi Shigeru hurriedly prepared to take action.

But at this moment, Amuro Toru shook his head and muttered, "But if he likes playing games, why not just summarize it as 'games'? Wouldn't that be easier?"

"Also, the deceased must have left his last message when the mall had a power outage, otherwise the murderer would have taken the document bag as well."

“If I were the deceased, I would be more inclined to write down a more intuitive message before death rather than some strange symbols…”

After listening to Toru Amuro's reasoning, Inspector Megure also came to his senses and nodded, thinking it made sense.

"In that case, how do we find the murderer?"

After failing to handle the case independently, Megure wanted to be a freeloader.

At this time, Qin Zhibo patted Amuro Toru's shoulder and walked up.

In fact, Qin Zhibo also thought about the game symbols.

The reason why I didn't say it out loud is because I suspected there was something wrong with it.

However, since we already know that the murderer may be someone who embezzled public funds, there is a simpler way to investigate the case.

"Why not just check the accounts..."

Chapter 679 Qin Zhibo's University Major

The company under investigation for public funds issues is located on the 8th to 11th floors of this building, which are also the office floors of the real estate company that owns the department store.

So, the department store owner from the last underground parking lot incident appeared again.

"Why do you always appear in cases?"

"Are you guys sent by our competitors to play a trick on me?"

Tomohiro Qin, Ran Maori, Sonoko Suzuki, Conan, Toru Amuro, these people are not strangers to the department store owner.

This group of people has been involved in two recent shopping mall cases, so it is normal for department store owners to have such suspicions.

This suspicion made Conan feel uncomfortable, and he glanced away.

Conan: ?_?

If you say anything more, I'll go to your house to film an episode! (No)

"Cough cough..."

Although Inspector Megure also had doubts in his mind about this, the most important thing at the moment was to investigate the case. "We came here because of the case downstairs..."

"From what we can see so far, the murderer is most likely the employee of your company who embezzled public funds. So we'd like to borrow your account books, perhaps we can find some clues."

Upon hearing this, the department store owner smiled contemptuously, shook his head and waved his hands, "Useless, useless..."

"The employees I employ are all excellent. If they cook the books, even the most professional accountants won't be able to spot it. How can you tell?"

Seeing the department store owner's reaction, Inspector Megure was speechless.

The employees under him are so good at cooking the books, and the boss seems to be a little proud of it?

At this moment, Qin Zhibo stood up with a confident smile on his face.

"Can we find out if we try it?"

"If you can find out, the officer will solve the case, and you will also find the traitor in the company, right?"

The department store owner looked at Qin Zhibo and remembered that this person was a very famous detective recently, with the surname Qin.

Although an accountant may not be able to find out the employee who embezzled public funds, a detective may be able to.

After all, the detective had claimed that he had found the person and was ready to hand over the name and evidence to him.

"Well, the account books and financial statements for each department are in the accounting department. Just follow Ishii and get them."

"But don't blame me for not warning you. My company is quite large, and there are many departments that come into contact with money, so it's not that easy to investigate."

The department store owner was more rational. He turned around and left after saying that. He did not stay in the same space with Conando, otherwise triggering the second stage of the Death Buff would be no joke.

The rest of the people followed a corporate slave named Ishii to the accounting department to retrieve financial statements and account books.

……

When the accountant took out the financial statements and account books, everyone was dumbfounded.

I saw these financial statements piled up like a mountain, and the piles of paper statements were so painful to look at.

At this time, the office worker Ishii came over and said cautiously: "These are only the financial statements for the first quarter of this year and the fourth quarter of last year. If you count the previous ones, there will be more."

Inspector Megure looked a little embarrassed. He had no idea about money and he really couldn't imagine that a company would have so many financial statements.

Originally, he wanted to try his hand at helping to find out if there were any discrepancies in the numbers.

But now it seems that as a police captain, he is overwhelmed by the pile of documents and is really helpless.

Unless the headquarters sends the Second Investigation Section, which is in charge of economic crimes.

But Megure didn't want to hand over the case to others easily.

Besides, Ginzo Nakamori of the Second Investigation Division is obsessed with catching Kidd, so it is hard to say whether he can still handle ordinary economic cases now.

"Brother Qin, I can only rely on you now."

Inspector Megure patted Qin Zhibo's shoulder heavily and handed the responsibility of solving the case to Qin Zhibo in the form of a baton.

Qin Zhibo couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he looked at the piles of financial statements.

Qin Zhibo can see investigation points on every financial statement.

This resulted in Qin Zhibo's eyes seeing these not as financial statements, but as a glowing hill.

Qin Zhibo picked up the top financial statement and tried to investigate it.

【Accounting Investigation】

[Auditing...]

[Auditing...]

[Audit completed, verified to be true]

After waiting for about ten seconds, the first financial statement came out, and the result was true.

This indicates that there is no content of false accounting.

So, Qin Zhibo put the financial report aside and said to the still confused Inspector Megure, "There is no problem with this financial report."

"what?"

"Is that all?"

Inspector Megure didn't react. He looked at the financial statements of the safe zone on the table, and then looked at Qin Zhibo.

I clearly only saw Qin Zhibo casually flipping through the contents a few times, and then said there was no problem.

That’s it, that’s it.

Is checking the accounts that simple?

With a try-it attitude, Megure also took out a financial statement and opened it to take a look.

The overwhelming collection of numbers and incomprehensible charts made my eyes dizzy, and I had to quickly put the report back.

"Well, Brother Qin, take your time to investigate. Do you want me to send someone else to help you?"

"No, I can do it by myself... By the way, can you ask someone to buy me a cup of milk tea? I'm a little thirsty."

As soon as Qin Zhibo made his request, Amuro Toru, who was standing behind him, raised his hand.

"Teacher, please let me go downstairs to buy some milk tea."

"Okay, just remember to put more pearls and less sugar."

"I understand, teacher."

Toru Amuro turned around and walked out of the accounting department.

Conan felt a little unbelievable as he watched Qin Zhibo continue to review the financial report.

Qin Zhibo actually has the skill to check accounts?

From previous encounters, Conan knew that Qin Zhibo had many skills, including but not limited to terrifyingly sharp observation and reasoning abilities, mysterious kung fu, and knowledge of the occult.

Now there are even professional skills like auditing?

The skill of checking accounts is not a necessary skill for detectives. Even if it is necessary, at most they can only investigate economic crimes.

For Conan, who likes to "pursue excitement", this is the most boring type of case, so Conan did not add any skills in this area.

Most importantly, there are no technical schools specializing in accounting in Hawaii.

But judging from Qin Zhibo's behavior, he not only knows how to check accounts, but also seems to be very proficient in it?

This is not just proficiency. Qin Zhibo's actions are somewhat counterintuitive. He can finish reading a thick financial statement in just a dozen seconds.

Such operations left the professional accountant next to them dumbfounded.

Based on Conan's understanding of Qin Zhibo, although this person is not a monk, he would not tell such lies.

If he is not just pretending, then where does Qin Zhibo's superb accounting skills come from?

After thinking about it for a while, Conan suddenly had an idea and thought of a possibility.

Before, I only knew that Qin Zhibo graduated from Miskatonic University, was interested in mysticism, and participated in related clubs, but his major has always been an unsolved mystery.

Could it be that Qin Zhibo's major is...

Accounting major?

Chapter 680 Frequent Urinating Boy, Conan

Accounting is a common university major with a very high selection rate.

Even if Qin Zhibo chose this major, Conan thought there was nothing wrong with it, but he just felt it was a pity.

Because Conan heard that the most famous majors at the University of Michigan worldwide are history, psychology, and archaeology.

Although other traditional majors are also strong, such as medicine and physics, and can also be ranked among the best in the world, they are slightly ordinary compared to these most prestigious majors of the University of Michigan.

It can be said that these majors are the distinctive majors of the University of Michigan.

Archaeology + detective, this gimmick sounds much more interesting and will definitely be a big hit!

But then again, Conan remembered that he had once picked up Qin Zhibo's wallet, and when he returned it to Qin Zhibo, he seriously counted the money inside.

Now it seems that this may be a professional habit, being too sensitive to the amount of money.

Understand, understand...

Just like Conan himself was influenced by Sherlock Holmes, when he met someone he would first pay attention to the other person's shoes, trouser knees and cuffs.

It’s a pity that there is no detective profession in this world, at most there is a police academy.

Conan's behavioral habits are derived from the "wild ways" of the fictional characters.
