Chapter 698 The cooperation between the Phantom Thief and the Detective
“Ah, you are the police officer who just called. The guest wearing sunglasses mentioned before has not come yet.”
“ Are you sure he comes here every afternoon?"
"Yes, he seems to be waiting for someone. What's the matter? Is he involved in any case?"
"No, it's just some traffic accident issues... Well, could you please give a brief explanation of the phone call two days ago?"
"Oh, oh, okay..."
Watching Yumi Miyamoto talking to the chef of the cafe, Kogoro Mouri looked back and forth at the shop for a moment and curled his lips.
The distance between Sanchome and Nichome is so far. How could the man who died in a car accident after dropping his cell phone find the wrong place.
"Should we call Miss Zi? If someone comes, let her listen to the voice and she can probably tell the difference. By the way, it's okay for you to leave the store to Miss Zi and come with us. "?" Mouri Kogoro looked at Toru Amuro, who was following behind.
Although it feels like I’m working as a shop assistant and running a detective agency at the same time, I don’t seem to be taking too much care of the cafe...
"It's not the peak period in the evening yet, so the store is not too busy now. And even if it gets busy, there will be other people to help. Since I opened the office, I haven't been full-time at work here. "Amuro Toru smiled and explained a few words.
The main reason why he still retains his job at Polo Cafe is that Karasawa needs to stay in the cafe during his protective observation period. During this year, Polo Cafe The museum is destined to be a permanent place for him and Tang Ze.
As for whether adding so many part-time workers will affect the income and expenditure... Just as Tangze had guessed before, the organization must ensure that all situations are under control before arranging for him to move in. Cafe The actual owner is Toru Amuro himself.
All the expenses of the cafe are spent by the organization. This is even more true after Kumail appeared. Toru Amuro didn’t just wave his hand and directly filled the cafe with all the equipment. The need to remain as he is and keep a low profile, not that he doesn't want to.
"You said that the customer asked you if you had ever picked up a lost mobile phone?" Miyamoto Yumi raised her voice a little, attracting the attention of several people who were still observing the environment.
"Yes, he also asked me if there is a waitress in the store, or if I have seen any female customers who came to the store pick up something..." The fat chef explained in detail.
"It seems that it is not wrong." Mouri Kogoro nodded, finally feeling that this incident had some clues.
"Ah, here it is, that customer." The chef looked at the store door that was pushed open and lowered his voice, "The one wearing sunglasses."
Conan He turned his head and looked at the man named by the chef with burning eyes, and touched the watch on his wrist.
Through thinking in the car and combining it with the actual situation, he was able to basically discern the overall picture of the entire incident.
Next, all he had to do was turn on the anesthesia watch and give Uncle Mori an injection like he did in the past...
Just as he was about to press the dial, Toru Amuro suddenly took two steps forward and accidentally bumped into him. On the elbows he had just raised.
How could a primary school student resist the power of Rice Krispies Superman? With a twist of his wrist, the dial was covered again.
"Okay, time waits for no one, let's keep the story short." Toru Amuro rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the man in sunglasses who had chosen a seat and sat down, "Do you mind telling me your identity? My friend picked up a mobile phone here two days ago. "
"Eh, eh?" Miyamoto Yumi reached out to grab Toru Amuro, who suddenly became angry, but the man in sunglasses looked at him. With an expression of shock and surprise, it was obviously too late.
"Or let's put it another way." Toru Amuro put his hands on his hips and looked down at the middle-aged man's shiny hair, "Mr. Baishou Shuhei, how much are you prepared to pay for this ledger?"
Feeling Conan looked flustered because something was wrong with the direction of the script. He rushed to Toru Amuro's side in three steps and opened his watch again.
Although the records stored in the address book are most likely to show that Zhou Ping manipulated election funds and accepted illegal money during the election, they skipped the well-founded reasoning and directly This was the first time he had seen A to the face.
I don’t know what the psychological quality of this Ma Zai is. If Amuro reveals something and chooses to pretend to be dead or start running away...
Should I give the man in sunglasses a shot or should I? After giving Amuro a shot, Conan couldn't help but hesitate.
"W-What are you talking about?" The middle-aged man was caught off guard by Amuro Toru's words. His hand shook, and the menu he had just picked up fell back to the table.
"What's wrong? Did I misunderstand the contents of that phone?" Toru Amuro didn't even look back, and directly reached out to grab the watch that Conan was still groping for. "Kid, give it to this uncle. Let’s look at what we found.”
His movements were very natural. On the surface, it looked like a child running towards him, and he held his wrist easily. No one noticed Conan’s subtle groping. The dial moves.
Conan raised his head and looked at Toru Amuro in surprise.
Toru Amuro met the fake primary school student's gaze and just showed a winning smile.
Quickly find a reason to let the traffic police detain the man first. Team Zero, who has already started racing against the Phantom Thief, will have time to go to the home of the man who died in the car accident and find the original account books compiled by the other party.
Even if it takes a while, Shuhei Baisho will probably start to reflect on himself in tears on the TV or radio. The police, who have already secured the evidence with the help of the detective, are not too defeated. many.
So, hurry up, kid.
Facing the direct gaze of the man in sunglasses, with his anesthesia watch completely held in Toru Amuro's hand, Conan could only bite the bullet and took out the mobile phone he had been studying all the way from his pocket.
“It’s strange, uncle, is this your mobile phone? Why are the names in the communication all pseudonyms that I can’t understand, and none of them can be called? Japan does not use numbers starting with 1 , Uncle is so stupid.”
"What are these two people doing..." Before he could realize what was happening, the situation turned into an encirclement situation. When Kogoro Mouri approached in a hurry, he happened to catch up with Conan and finished his sentence. A cannon-like classic children's talk.
Conan raised his hand and pointed at Kogoro Mouri who came over: "Uncle Maori said that this is an account book recorded in the address book. It was compiled by an investigative reporter from various merchants. Really? "
The situation changed too quickly, and the middle-aged man in sunglasses, whose emotions had been completely carried away by the two detectives, subconsciously looked at Kogoro Mori, who was walking over.
As he was the slowest to react, Mouri Kogoro walked from the bar in front of the chef to the booth, which happened to block the only exit to the outside world in this small cafe.
In the eyes of the man in sunglasses, Kogoro Mouri, with his hands in his pockets, is full of the temperament of a mastermind behind the scenes. He is like the real talker among a group of people, making decisions before taking action, strolling around, and full of a sense of oppression. .
"I, I don't understand what you are talking about." The man stammered and reluctantly replied, "Did you admit the wrong person? I, I have something to do for a while..."
"But this store just now The boss also said that you asked him if he had picked up his cell phone. What, don’t you want to take it back?” Toru Amuro pointed at the cell phone Conan was holding, “The names in the address book are actually all fake. The abbreviations of each merchant? First summarize the nature of the company in English, and then abbreviate it into a short abbreviation. This way, even if the phone accidentally falls into the hands of others, it will not be easy for others to see through the recorded content..."
< br>Speaking of this, he pointed at Mouri Kogoro, who happened to be walking side by side with them. Without waiting for the confused Moori Kogoro to say anything, he changed the subject.
“However, the person who picked up the mobile phone was not an ordinary person, but the famous detective, Mr. Mouri Kogoro.”
“Huh?!” The man in sunglasses, who was feeling very anxious, almost Jumped up from his seat, "Are you Kogoro Mori?! Do you know everything?"
"Hey, I, I..." suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention. Mouri Kogoro didn't know what to answer. He could only meet the man in sunglasses and nodded slowly, "I am indeed Moori Kogoro."< br>
"The reasoning just now was all told to me by Mr. Mori. What, you still want to resist and insist that everything has nothing to do with Baishou Zhouhei? If you insist like that, then we will take our Tell the police if you find out." Toru Amuro pushed the pot lightly, looked at the man's face covered with sweat, and smiled.
As a Ma Zai who ran errands for Beishou Zhou Ping, the man in front of him had no other choice but to cooperate with them.
The man who threatened to extort money is dead. The last flaw of Baishou Shuhei is that the mobile phone cannot be recovered. The man in sunglasses was tasked with retrieving his cell phone. Now that the phone is in the hands of the detective and the true nature of the incident has been discovered, his mission is destined to be impossible to complete.
If you cooperate with them, there may be a possibility of bargaining and bribing the detective to shut up. If you don't cooperate with them, I don't know if Baishou Zhou Ping will be finished. He, the macho boy, will definitely be finished.
"Speaking of which, although you are unlucky if the things fall into our hands, overall, Mr. Baishou Zhou Ping's luck is quite good." Toru Amuro said teasingly, in a casual tone, " He was found out about the possibility of accepting bribes and was blackmailed, but the blackmailer happened to get into a traffic accident... What a pity. If he had been more careful and not so careless, everything wouldn't have been exposed, right? "
As he said this, he lowered his purple-gray eyes coldly, staring at the man with pity and ridicule.
Under such gaze, the man quickly realized what Toru Amuro meant.
Beishou Zhou Ping was able to deal with the blackmailer whose identity was unknown without him noticing, and it would be equally easy to deal with him, a Ma Zai who might betray him at any time.
In the sight of several people with different meanings, the man in sunglasses shivered and quickly realized his situation.
"I, I request to be a tainted witness..."
"Don't worry, as long as the information you give is true, the relevant departments will ensure your safety." Toru Amuro raised his eyebrows , took out his mobile phone, preparing to wait for the man to give out the number of the original owner of the mobile phone, and then send it directly to the action team on standby.
He knew that these conspirators were of average quality, not to mention facing the harsh interrogation methods of the police. With a little scare, their associations would become richer than the last, and they would soon scare themselves. Kill yourself.
Having found a breakthrough and following the clues, we can naturally figure out how Baishou Zhouping came into contact with the organization's channels.
The man in sunglasses pushed his nosepiece, which was wet with sweat, and was sliding down. He looked at the silent Kogoro Moori pleadingly: "Well, I can say it! Mr. Detective Moori, could you please mention it to the media? My name..."
"Take out the original number of this phone first. As long as you cooperate well, Mr. Detective Mori will consider it," Toru Amuro urged.
"Okay, okay, I wrote it down on the note..."
Moori Kogoro, who only admitted his identity from the beginning to the end, and somehow solved the case automatically:?

"Do you, do you usually carry out this kind of mission?" Zhu Fu Jingguang climbed up to the height of the colossus along the vines, panting and looking at the jungle at his feet.
This huge stone tower-like statue rising from the ground may already be a hundred meters above the ground. The original giant tree, which was originally tall and gloomy and could not even be illuminated by sunlight, looked like this from this angle. It looks like a small dark green block.
Although it is true that I am not afraid of heights, looking down at such a height without protection still makes people feel weak and dizzy.
"It's not always this exciting..." Miyano Akemi, who was panting from climbing, wiped her forehead and replied while panting.
"Hoo, I, wait for me, I can't hold my hand steady now..." Zhu Fu Jingguang tried to calm his breathing and raised the sniper rifle in his hand again.
"It's okay, you don't need to aim very accurately. The target is big, just hit it." Asai Naomi released the bowstring in his hand and breathed out, "At this distance, even if the target is big, I can't guarantee the hit rate. Trouble. You."
"No trouble. Since I chose to join you, this is what I should do." Zhu Fu Jingguang breathed out and clicked on the bright square on the sight frame. The trigger was pulled.
Xingchuan Hui, who had been waiting beside him for a long time, jumped up slightly, followed the bullet that broke through the air at high speed, and shot towards the ball of light floating in the air.
As he tightened his grip on the bright object, there was a crisp sound of breaking glass.
Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his head and saw that the sun hanging high in the sky of different colors, shining on the jungle, was shattered.
The entire alienated sky seemed to be broken from the position of the sun. Spider-web-like cracks slowly filled the sky, and the blue sky was exposed from the glass-like cracks there.
The cracks slowly widened. Human voices, vehicle engines, whistles... all kinds of sounds belonging to human society slowly broke this strange silence.
The world seems to have been shattered by the shot he just fired, and is about to change back to its true appearance.
The false sunshine that the entire jungle depends on will be shattered like this.
"So, as long as this thing is taken away, Zhou Ping, a person like Baishou, will change his twisted mind and repent for his crimes?" Zhu Fu Jingguang squinted his eyes and looked up at the strange strange man. Xiang couldn't help but smile, "Should we shoot down all the alienated suns together? That sounds really good."
Although he had intuitively felt the power of the Phantom Thieves, he couldn't help but feel shocked and happy when he saw such strange sights.
"No, before that... let's worry about how we are going to get down." Shimabukuro Kimie, who had already experienced it, looked at Hoshikawa Teru who flew out and began to fall, showing a calm relief. Smiled, "The palace is starting to collapse."
"Huh?! Ah, it's really starting to shake!"
"Hold on, be careful not to swing out..."< br>
“Then, then Shade him...!”
"Don't worry. If you don't fall to death, the team leader will pull you up and continue working."
"Huh?!"
While they were making jokes and scaring the new teammates. , red chains hang down from high in the sky.
"You guys, stop making trouble. Noah is very dissatisfied with being used as a helicopter and so on. If you don't hurry up, Noah won't care about you anymore——"
————
I am Kogoro Mori, and although I don’t know why, I am a famous detective.
Everyone thinks that there is no problem in the world that I cannot solve, but I think that the solution to the problem may be just a matter of fate.
It’s like, with the newspaper in my hand now, my heroic appearance must appear again...
Looking at the photo of the front page of the newspaper in my hand, Mouri Kogoro “poof” With a sound, he spat out the coffee in his mouth again.
"What does it mean for detectives and phantom thieves to work together to show off their power and expose the evil deeds of members?! Who has clearly defined the division of labor with them, who?!"
"Well..." Conan, who walked into the cafe, looked at Kogoro Mouri, then at Azusa Enomoto, who was too busy due to Toru Amuro's absence, and finally looked at the TV in the cafe.
On the screen, Baishou Shuhei's face was trembling with tears, while the voice of the announcer's tablet continued to play back.
"Probably, that's it." Conan shook his head, took out his phone, and edited the email sent to joker.
