Detective Conan: Starting with Yukiko covered in black stockings!

"Dude, you've worked hard. My treat for supper tonight."

Cao Yu glanced at the hidden corpse, then peered through the car window with a sly smile at the leader, secretly scattering three strands of hair into the car.

"Brother, that's impressive!"

"You decide the location, I'll follow behind."

"okay!"

The leading man happily selected a shop and then instructed his henchman to drive ahead and lead the way.

Cao Yu turned around and lit a cigarette, a strange smile flashing across his lips.

Not long!

The small truck drove onto the main road and headed towards the city center.

Since it was the early hours of the morning, the usually bustling city was mostly asleep, except for homeless people and drunken hooligans.

Cao Yu gradually reduced his speed, maintaining a certain distance from the small truck, and then snapped his fingers.

Snapped!

boom!

The small truck exploded instantly, and "April 17th" was accompanied by a plume of thick smoke, with brilliant fireworks bursting in the sky.

Cao Yu didn't bother to look at him again, stepped on the gas and sped away, concealing his merit and fame.

The situation is set; now we await Akemi Miyano's next move.

As a qualified bandit, Cao Yu knew that once a pawn lost its value, it should be discarded without the slightest bit of sentimentality; hesitation would lead to defeat.

Moreover, the matter is of great importance. If leaving survivors is discovered by the island nation's police or the brewery, the entire plan will be ruined.

"Thanos snapped his fingers and destroyed the universe, and now I snap my fingers and blow up a truck, so does that make me Thanos?"

"The enhanced Devil Fruit ability is indeed very useful. I can control the timing and power of the explosion at will. If conditions permit, I might even be able to blow up an entire island nation with a snap of my fingers."

Cao Yu muttered to himself and turned on the car's music player.

When he returned to the villa, Vermouth was fast asleep.

Snapped!

After washing up, Cao Yu slapped Vermouth hard across the buttocks.

"What are you doing? How annoying!"

Vermouth opened her sleepy eyes, her tone revealing displeasure.

"The posture is wrong, get up and go back to sleep!"

Cao Yu grinned mischievously.

"what?"

Vermouth was a little confused, but quickly came to her senses.

……

The next day, at noon!

"What?! The Mika Bank armored truck was robbed, and the robbers stole one billion yen?"

"Is this ever going to end? The bombing that happened in the early hours of the morning still hasn't yielded any clues, and now there's this armored truck robbery. These hateful criminals are trying to exhaust us."

"Takagi, Sato, leave the bombing case to Inspector Shiratori. You two take men and come with me to Beika Bank to investigate the armored truck robbery."

When Inspector Megure received the news, he was furious.

Three bodies were found in the early morning truck explosion, and now robbers have stolen one billion yen. Two major cases have occurred in his jurisdiction in quick succession, leaving him overwhelmed with work.

If the truth is not found out as soon as possible, it could very well affect his career.

Fortunately, the people of Mihua are simple and honest, and they are already immune to various cases, so there is no need to panic.

By the time Inspector Megure arrived with the police, the robbers who had succeeded had already vanished without a trace.

A search of the scene yielded no useful clues.

Just when Inspector Megure was at a loss, he looked up and saw Kogoro Mouri who happened to be at the bank exchanging money, with Ran Mouri and Conan by his side. His eyes lit up and he went up to greet him.

With the help of a famous detective, there's no worry about catching the robbers.

"Huh? The amount robbed was a billion?"

When Kogoro Mouri heard the specific amount, his eyes widened in shock.

That's a billion yen, enough for him to drink alcohol for a lifetime.

"Yes, it's said that all the money that the head office was supposed to distribute to the branches was stolen this time."

Megure Juzo places his hopes on Kogoro Mouri to solve the case, and has no intention of hiding anything.

"A billion..."

Kogoro Mouri muttered to himself, his mind completely blank.

In a corner, Cao Yu, disguised as a passerby, was quietly monitoring the police investigation's progress.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger!

Although he had a god-like perspective and knew the entire process and truth of the crime, he still chose to monitor secretly for the sake of caution.

Seeing that Kogoro Mouri was out of sorts, Inspector Megure looked down at Conan, who was holding a skateboard.

"Conan, the number you gave me for that robber, it should be correct, right?"

"Yes, there's absolutely no mistake!"

Conan's confident answer.

He had chased after the fleeing robbers after the incident, which is why he was so certain.

Although the police lost track of the robber during the chase due to an accidental fall and did not get a clear look at the robber's face, the clues provided gave them a direction for their investigation.

"The robbers were two masked thugs armed with handguns and shotguns!"

Inspector Megure stroked his chin thoughtfully, thankful that he had encountered Conan and finally obtained some useful clues.

He then looked at the armored truck guard who was being questioned.

Fortunately, none of the guards sustained serious injuries.

Meanwhile, Conan's attention was also drawn to the guard who was answering questions.

"When the armored truck arrived, we were preparing to unload the cash according to plan when we heard a gunshot and the truck window was shattered by a bullet."

“I called the driver’s cab, but there was no response, so I figured they must have been killed.”

"I had no choice but to open the door."

Strange!

Conan listened to the guard's account and quickly realized something was amiss.

He was at the bank at the time. He clearly heard the gunshot and the sound of breaking glass, so he immediately ran to the parking lot entrance and peeked inside to see what was happening.

Meanwhile, the robbers had already begun moving the cash from the armored truck, so the guards in front of them shouldn't have had time to call the driver.

unless……

Despite his shrunken body, his mind remains sharp; the famous detective is still quite capable.

Seeing that Conan was deep in thought, Cao Yu knew that he had already seen through the flaw.

"Officer, you must be able to understand. I had no choice at the time!"

The guard, fearing responsibility, quickly tried to shift the blame.

"Uncle Guard!"

4. The sudden sound attracted the attention of the guards and police.

Conan put his hands behind his head and looked at the guard with feigned innocence.

"I think you're really lucky."

"How do you say this?"

The guard was puzzled and asked a question in return.

"That's right, because the windows of armored trucks are all fitted with black glass so that you can't see inside, right?"

"Yup!"

"The assailant fired without being able to see inside, and not only did he miss your uncle, but he also managed to hit the bag containing the change, preventing the bullet from ricocheting. It seems that either you were incredibly lucky, or they knew in advance where the bag would be placed, right?"

Through the question-and-answer session with the two, Conan almost confirmed his guess.

The guard in front of me is the mole who robbed the armored truck.

Chapter 55 All

"What are you talking about?"

The guard felt guilty and denied it while sweating profusely.

"This child isn't lying!"

Cao Yu, twirling his fake 852 mustache with one hand, walked up to the group of 1042 people.

Hercule Poirot!

Looking at Cao Yu's familiar disguise, a figure immediately popped into Conan's mind.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Edgar Christie, a detective."

Cao Yu smiled and gave the group a gentlemanly bow.

Today, he specifically asked Vermouth for help to disguise himself as Hercule Poirot on screen, and the name he made up was taken from the surname of the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, and the first name of another mystery novelist, Edgar Allan Poe.

Conan, who is passionate about deduction, immediately realized that he was lying, but did not call him out on it directly.

"Does being a detective give you the right to talk nonsense?"

The guard gritted his teeth and gave Cao Yu no friendly look whatsoever.

He was able to escape unharmed when the robbers smashed the car window with a shotgun, not because of good luck, but entirely because of the identity of the mole and his accomplices.

If you have a guilty conscience, you're naturally afraid of being exposed.

"This young man's analysis makes a lot of sense. The criminals were in a blind spot and were using a shotgun, so they couldn't possibly ensure the safety of the people inside the car."

"But you weren't injured. There are only two possibilities: either you were lucky, or you were an accomplice of the robbers and took precautions beforehand."

"As for the truth, you know it better than anyone else."

Although Cao Yu supports Conan's point of view, he does not want to hand the guards over to the police, so he conceals the truth about the robbery.

Although Inspector Megure understood that he was implying the guard was an accomplice of the robbers, he was unable to issue an order to arrest him due to a lack of substantial evidence.

Just as the guard was about to continue his rebuttal, the bank manager's reprimanding voice came from inside the counter, attracting everyone's attention.

It's human nature to watch the excitement.

"Miss Hirota, where did you go at such a crucial moment?"

The person in charge stood with his hands behind his back, his tone unusually stern.

He was robbed of 1 billion yen in front of a bank, and when his superiors blamed him, he couldn't bear the responsibility. Finding a scapegoat was urgent.

"I'm so sorry, I just changed shifts and went to have lunch."

Akemi Miyano kept her head down, and her delicate appearance was hard to reconcile with the image of a robber.

"What are young girls thinking these days? What time do you think it is? Is your watch broken? The armored truck has been robbed..."

boom!

Upon hearing the person in charge's words, Conan had a flash of inspiration and stared intently at Miyano Akemi.

While waiting for Kogoro Mouri to get his number and queue up to handle his business, he noticed that Akemi Miyano kept looking at her watch and seemed somewhat anxious...

Have you finally discovered it?

Cao Yu looked at Conan, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.
