Conan Rick's Investigator

Bin Mike took over this person's identity and attended the ceremony.

While the ceremony was going on, Bin Mike jumped out to interrupt it, led away eight people, and killed six of them, while two escaped.

When he came back, there was only one left in the swamp.

Conan combined the information he got from the two rescued young ladies and the whole thing became clear.

In fact, there was another person lurking at the scene of the ceremony.

He eliminated the people on the island and released the "sacrifice", saying he was going to look for Bin Mike, but he didn't find him.

But the problem now is that the most crucial "doctor" is missing.

"Oh, yes, I should have some clues about this..."

Bin Mike groped in his arms and took out the video recorder he had treasured for a long time.

"My video recorder has been working the whole time. It should have recorded the entire incident..."

Bin Mike pried open the side cover of the VCR and was about to hand over the videotape, but found that it was empty.

"Ok?"

"Where's my belt?"

……

At the edge of the Toushen Forest, Qin Zhibo had just walked out of the forest and returned to his car.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Qin Zhibo threw the videotape into the air and played with it for a few times before putting it into the storage compartment.

Just now, when Qin Zhibo was checking the contents of the videotape with Bin Mike in the forest, he secretly kept a watchful eye.

Originally, it was Bin Mike who was holding the video recorder, but Qin Zhibo took over the video recorder for a while in order to see clearly who rescued Kinoshita Tomonori.

When returning the VCR to Bin Mike, Qin Zhibo used words to divert Bin Mike's attention and pulled the tape out of the VCR.

There are three reasons for doing this.

First, Qin Zhibo himself was using the invisibility of the ring to move around on the island. The two hostages were in a panic as their lives were at stake and they did not notice this.

But it would be different if there was a clear video, and you might be able to see the scene where Qin Zhibo appeared out of thin air.

Secondly, if Bin Mike breaks his promise and confesses his involvement in the incident, there will be no direct evidence without the videotape.

Even if we find Qin Zhibo out of thin air, as long as we can't find the person "Qin Jibo", we can't prove that "Qin Zhibo" was also in the Toushen Forest last night.

In fact, the person "Qin Jibo" may exist, and he may be a singer, but he is definitely not Qin Zhibo's younger brother.

As for not wanting to reveal his true identity in the incident, it was more because he had learned from the lessons of the previous experience.

When dealing with these pagans, it is better to use a false identity and be careful of retaliation.

Third, Qin Zhibo wanted to personally confirm whether it was Toru Amuro who took away Tomonori Kinoshita. If Conan saw the light golden hair in the video, he might have some associations.

Based on these three reasons, Qin Zhibo temporarily took Bin Mike's videotape.

Anyway, I have already provided a videotape, which is enough to be used as evidence in court.

……

The next day, noon.

After a night of travel, Qin Zhibo returned to the office at around two o'clock in the morning last night.

Qin Zhibo slept from two in the morning until noon before he woke up from bed in a daze.

In terms of daily habits, getting up at 7 o'clock, washing, eating, and watching the morning news hosted by Rena Mizunashi is Qin Zhibo's daily routine.

Normally, even if I stay up a little late the night before, it will basically not disrupt this routine.

But this time, Qin Zhibo was really tired.

Or maybe I've been feeling a little tired this past week and my body feels drained.

The first is a trip to the United States.

From Los Angeles to Oklahoma to New York.

From Innsmouth to Arkham, I experienced the customs and high technology of different regions, and even visited the town where my alma mater is located...

After returning to Japan, he was "forced" to join the Black Organization and work under Gin, who was always ready to blast his teammates. He was also mistakenly thought to be a performance appraisal sent by the boss of the organization.

The office was originally one of the few pure lands, but a Japanese police officer lurked in with unknown intentions.

There's also the Twilight Annex in Gunma Prefecture, which flew into the sky and disappeared...

In the end, he almost lost his life because of the voodoo curse and experienced the feeling of being on the verge of death.

In order to survive, he wrestled with Baron Samedi and was warned by the gods.

We finally got evidence that Tomonori Kinoshita committed a crime and were able to send him to the police station, but he was rescued by someone else.

Qin Zhibo lay in the boss chair, recalling the events that happened this week, and couldn't help sighing.

"These days are so long..."

When driving back to Tokyo in the early morning, Qin Zhibo kept listening to the car radio to avoid falling asleep while driving.

During the broadcast, Qin Zhibo confirmed that today is Sunday.

If nothing goes wrong, tomorrow is Monday.

It's the real "Monday".

Thinking of Sunday, Qin Zhibo suddenly realized that there was someone missing in the office.

Where is Toru Amuro?

Sitting up from the boss chair, Qin Zhibo looked around the office but did not see Toru Amuro.

Not coming today?

This is very rare for the hardworking Toru Amuro.

Although before going to Toujin Forest, Toru Amuro asked for leave and said that he might be away for 1 to 2 days.

But with Toru Amuro's foolproof personality, if he didn't come to work the next day, he would probably call me and tell me.

But it's already noon and there's not a single call.

Is it really him?

Qin Zhibo was a little skeptical, so he took out the videotape from last night and watched it carefully.

After Qin Zhibo checked again and again, he felt more and more suspicious.

Toru Amuro's light golden hair is rare to begin with, and seeing him in the deep mountains and forests of Gunma Prefecture is itself suspicious.

In addition, Toru Amuro and Tomonori Kinoshita also met once.

Toru Amuro happened to ask for leave when he was going to the Toushin Forest, which made people suspicious.

All these conditions combined make it worth going there in person.

Thinking in his mind, Qin Zhibo put on the magic extractor and used the locating spell to try to detect the location of Kinoshita Tomonori.

One second passed...

Two seconds passed...

Ten seconds passed...

The locating spell did not sense Kinoshita Tomonori's location.

There are two possibilities. One is that the distance is too far and beyond the range of the locating spell.

Another possibility is that Kinoshita Tomonori's face has changed a little, even if the change is not much, coupled with the distance, it will greatly reduce the possibility of successful sensing.

I should have known better than to hit him in the face...

Qin Zhibo remembered that he had slapped Kinoshita Tomonori in the face yesterday. He used quite a lot of force at that time, and the swelling should not have gone down yet.

There was no other way, so Qin Zhibo changed the search target and replaced the searching spell with Amuro Toru.

One second passed...

Two seconds passed...

This time, Qin Zhibo quickly sensed the location of Toru Amuro.

After getting the direction, Qin Zhibo quickly changed into casual clothes, put on the sunglasses he bought when he went to the Toushen Forest, and left the office.

……

After determining the location several times, Qin Zhibo arrived at an apartment building in Beika-cho 1-chome.

In order to identify the residents in the apartment building, Qin Zhibo went to the collective mailbox of the residents on the first floor and confirmed the surnames of the residents in the apartment building one by one.

However, the word "Amuro" was not included.

There was no other way, Qin Zhibo could only use the searching spell to search each floor one by one.

Finally, at the stairs on the 5th floor, Qin Zhibo's sense of direction obtained from the locating spell was horizontal, and Amuro Toru lived on the th floor.

In order to avoid Toru Amuro suddenly opening the door and catching him sneaking around in the corridor, Qin Zhibo put on the magic ring again.

The ring is put on the outside of the magic extractor, which can not only make the person invisible, but also use the magic in the ring to charge the magic extractor. It is another classic prop combination.

After checking each room one by one, Qin Zhibo stopped at the door of the westernmost room.

The locating spell revealed that Amuro Toru was inside.

I have to say that the place where Toru Amuro lives is very exquisite. The room is right next to the escape passage outside the west side of the apartment building.

If anything happens, people can just jump out the window and leave via the emergency stairs.

In order to further confirm whether Toru Amuro was at home, Qin Zhibo pressed the doorbell of the room again.

Ding--

After the doorbell rang, footsteps were heard in the room.

The one who opened the door was Toru Amuro.

Toru Amuro first stuck his head out to look, and found that there was no one in the corridor, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

In order to confirm whether there was someone clinging to the edge of the corridor wall, Toru Amuro took two steps forward and looked outside the wall.

No one...

Toru Amuro glanced at the other side of the corridor again. The stairs were at least twenty meters away from his door, which was not enough for him to press the doorbell and run away within a few seconds.

Toru Amuro: "..."

Confused, Toru Amuro could only put the pistol back into the drawer of the entrance cabinet and stare at the doorbell on the door.

While Toru Amuro was investigating the mystery of the doorbell, Qin Zhibo also saw from the side that Toru Amuro was holding a silenced pistol in his other hand hidden behind his back.

So careful...

In fact, it’s no wonder that Toru Amuro is cautious, because no one knows this address except the landlord, not even the police.

Moreover, if the landlord wants to come and see the house, Toru Amuro also specifically reminded him to call in advance to notify them.

So theoretically speaking, there will be no visitors to Toru Amuro's address.

While the room was wide open, Qin Zhibo stuck his head in to peek inside, but could see no signs of another person living there.

Could it be that that person really isn’t Toru Amuro?

Qin Zhibo had no evidence of Amuro Toru having a mistress, so he could only watch Amuro Toru silently studying the doorbell. In the end, he couldn't figure it out and could only close the door again.

……

After returning to the room, Toru Amuro immediately called the apartment management and asked them to send someone to check if the doorbell was damaged.

If you can rule out the doorbell as a problem, it might be a prank by your neighbor.

Toru Amuro searched the situation of the neighbors around him in his mind. They were all ordinary office workers. Although today was Sunday, they didn't seem to be at home.

If it's not even a prank, then it's... a ghost?

Toru Amuro has read some movies or literary works. There is a type of ghost that loves to play pranks and can use pranks to drive living people crazy.

Is it that kind?

Amuro Toru narrowed his eyes slightly and felt that he needed to set up a camera at the door to take a picture of the ghost.
