Conan's Almighty Extraction

The room was empty, and Okazaki Sumie, who was supposed to stay at home honestly, was nowhere to be seen. Shiraiwa Maha and the three of them searched in various rooms to no avail, then took out their mobile phones and told the situation to the police officer Sakata who came here.

"Eh? Ms. Okazaki isn't at home? What's the matter, you told her not to go out?"

Police Officer Sakata's slightly angry voice came from the phone, obviously dissatisfied with Okazaki Sumie's self-assertive behavior.

"Yes, we rushed to nothing." Hattori Heiji glanced at the TV that was still broadcasting news, and asked solemnly: "Brother Sakata, did Ms. Okazaki call you again?"

Officer Sakata replied while driving the car to adjust the route: "I didn't tell her the mobile phone number, how could she call me?"

"It's true. All in all, hurry up and come here. I think something is wrong."

Hattori Heiji hung up the phone, and before he could investigate Okazaki Sumie's residence with Shiraiwa Maha, he heard a terrified scream from outside the window.

"The sound is coming from below!"

Bai Yanzhenyu moved, and appeared by the window of the living room in an instant. He opened the curtains and looked in the direction of the sound, and found a gray-clothed figure sitting slumped on the ground outside the public toilet downstairs, using both hands and feet. Backwards, it seems that there is something that frightens him.

"Let's go, go to the public toilet below."

Maha Shiraiwa didn't have time to explain, so he ran out first, and Hattori Heiji and Conan rushed there after seeing the situation.

When the three rushed to the public toilet, they saw Okazaki Sumie lying on his back on the floor, his chest was the same as that of the previous victims, and a sharp knife was stabbed through his wallet through his heart.

Bai Yanzhenyu stepped forward to test her pulse, shook his head and sighed: "She is dead."

"How could this happen? Why did you have to come out?" Hattori Heiji thumped the wall with a depressed face. He didn't expect that the clue he finally got was cut off in this way.

Not long after, police officer Sakata rushed to the scene. After learning that Okazaki Sumie had been killed, he immediately reported to the police and led a team to investigate the scene.

The murderer was quite cunning, and there were no obvious traces left at the crime scene, but an important clue was found in Okazaki Sumie's residence.

The clues are two telephone voices left by the voice changer, the contents are [You come to Shinsaibashi immediately, I will let you meet your old friends] and [See if you see, it will be your turn to die next. up].

The recording time of the two calls was [-]:[-]pm and [-]:[-]pm. Such a short interval immediately aroused the suspicion of Shiraiwa Maha and others.

The Shinsaibashi mentioned in the first recording is right next to the place where Kazuto Noyasu’s body fell. In other words, Okazaki Sumie only appeared near the scene after hearing this telephone recording.

The second telephone recording that followed immediately indicated that the murderer should have been at the scene at the time, and after discovering Okazaki Sumie's escape, he deliberately used Noan Kazuto's body to intimidate Okazaki Sumie.

In this way, it can be explained why Okazaki Sumie looked so nervous and frightened when he received a call from Officer Sakata.

Conan rubbed his chin and said solemnly: "These four cases are really strange, it's almost like being controlled by the murderer, I have an ominous premonition."

Hearing Conan's words, Hattori Heiji also had an ominous premonition in his heart. Thinking of the dream he had before, he suddenly took off his amulet and put it on Conan's neck.

"Hattori?" Conan looked at Hattori Heiji strangely, obviously not understanding what he was doing.

"Haha," Hattori Heiji grinned, and said casually, "This is an amulet that can bring good luck. I will lend it to you for the time being, and return it to me before you leave."

"Well, thanks." Although Conan didn't quite believe in amulets and the like, he didn't refuse Hattori Heiji's kindness.

After the on-site investigation, no other useful clues were found, but a new clue came from the police, that is, the victims and the township councilor had attended the same driver's license test training class 20 years ago.

This new clue links all the relevant personnel together, and the murderer's criminal motive is likely to be hidden in it.

After returning to the police station, Officer Sakata transferred the materials of the intensive training class and showed them to Shiraiwa Maha and others. It turned out that besides the five people who were classmates, the robber murderer who is currently on the wanted list—Kiichiro Numabuchi was also Students of the training class.

According to the data, although all six students have successfully graduated from the intensive training class, only Ms. Okazaki was the only one who got a driver's license that year.

In addition, there is also a case mentioned in the data. On the day of the graduation of the six students 20 years ago, the instructor Inaba Teji who was in charge of instructing them died in a car accident due to drunk driving.

After reading all the information, Hattori Heiji held his chin and guessed: "Do you think it will be like this? Numabuchi Kiichiro lacked travel expenses, so he used this as an excuse to blackmail the Town Secretary, and he killed him after being rejected." Kill other people to intimidate the Township Councilor again."

Shiraiwa Maha put down the documents in his hands, and added: "There is another possibility that, as a candidate for the next congressman, Mr. Koji used Kiichiro Numabuchi to kill his former companion in order to destroy the previous scandal."

"In this way, both situations are possible, and I also heard that the severance pay that Nagao Hidetoshi and Noyasu Kazuto received when they resigned were not very generous."

The speculation of Shiraiwa and Maha got the approval of police officer Sakata. When he drove the crowd to investigate Goji Soutaro, the police suddenly sent news that the car abandoned by the wanted criminal Numabuchi Kiichiro was found in the Minoh mountain area. Conduct a search and seek police support.

"Looks like we'll have to go there first."

Officer Sakata scratched his head helplessly, then changed his route, and took Shiraiwa Maha and others to the Minoh mountain area to search for Kiichiro Numabuchi.

Shiraiwa Maha, Hattori Heiji and others are not policemen after all, so the police did not allow them to participate in potentially dangerous searches, and asked them to wait at the foot of the mountain with the police in charge of remote monitoring.

With the efforts of many police personnel, the search of the Minoh mountain area was quickly completed, but the absconding Kiichiro Numabuchi was not found.

The police judged that Kiichiro Numabuchi had left the Minoh mountain area, and when he was about to close the team, Shiraiwa Maha suddenly pointed to a building on the mountainside, and reminded him: "Kiichiro Numabuchi didn't leave, he hid in that building on the mountain. In an abandoned shrine!"
