Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

Chapter 585 Chapter 588, Sano: Precisely because I believe in you
Sano would call the other white pig in the black and white impermanence a dead fat man.

Not without reason.

This guy doesn't know whether he has fallen after retiring or whether he has always been like this.

Anyway, now he is like a blessed middle-aged uncle.

Looking at the appearance in the photo, that round belly can even compete with Dr. Ali and Police Officer Megure. He doesn't look like a soldier at all... Of course, this guy is no longer a soldier.

And now the focus.

Because this guy suddenly disappeared.

Police officer Megure also asked the police officers in charge of this guy to remind each other and be vigilant, but the result was dawn the next day, hey~
People are gone.

At that time, Police Officer Mumu panicked.

But fortunately, this guy didn't seem to have encountered any accidents, because he had already informed his wife and children one night in advance, saying that he would be back the next day... There was no doubt that he had already fallen into the murderer's bait.

If nothing else, the location is Tokyo.

Because the previous few sniping locations were not too far away.

The general area can be determined, but the specific location.

There was no way to be sure... But Sano didn't know what the police thought.

It would be better to simply block the entire area.

If you are worried about "striking the grass and scaring the snake", which will cause the murderer to stop digging into the horns, and even put the operation site outside this area, making it more difficult to control, then at least you can arrange people to hide in the area and wait for rabbits?
In other words, it may be difficult to use this guy for fishing law enforcement.

But now this guy has taken on the responsibility of baiting himself, wouldn't that be better?

Sano rubbed his fingers... In fact, he didn't need to know where the murderer's last action was, because the murderer would take him there himself.

But this didn't stop Sano from being curious.

It was getting late.

It seems to be creating the best hunting environment for assassins.

... So, why on earth is this guy trying to get into a dead end?
Speaking from Sano's experience, these locations must have special significance.

Leaving aside the foreign reporter.

The second deceased was killed while continuing to sell bad properties on the high tower of Suzuki's house, and the third was killed in front of his love nest... Both of these seem reasonable, There is nothing wrong.

But the fourth Hunter was killed at a temporary foothold, and the fifth Heiwuchang was killed on the train to Tokyo, both are not quite right.

The location itself certainly does not have any special meaning, so it can only be viewed as a "combination". Generally speaking, it will be a "pattern".

Sano pulled out the map and looked at the four locations.

Before the fourth position came out, the first three positions felt somewhat connected, but the distance between the fourth and third was too close.

Could it be for the sake of "paying homage" to Hunter?
Sano flicked the map, changing from a top-down view to a head-up view...

Ok?
For a moment, Sano sensed something was wrong.

...Because it comes with its own map, and it is more detailed and convenient, Sano seldom uses paper maps or online maps.

But in this series of cases, Sano looked at the map only twice.

They were the paper map used by everyone to discuss the case when the second deceased appeared, and the Internet map that Toru Amuro looked at on the train behind.

Both maps are planar maps from a top-down perspective.

Looking at it from this perspective, it is true that there is nothing wrong with it, but if you look at it from another perspective... Sano tried to rotate his 3D map.

Finally fixed in a perspective.

...Is that so?

Sano frowned.

The fourth deceased was the one where the train sniper failed.

Because the murderer failed to succeed, he naturally didn't leave what he should have like the previous few times, but after knowing that Hei Wuchang died.

This guy actually turned back again, quietly leaving behind the shell casings and dice.

Sano didn't know what this guy was thinking, but as far as the facts were concerned.

The number of dice is five.

This is a very strange point, but not so strange.

Because from the four that starts with the first dice, to the two that ends with Hunter.

They are all reciprocals of normal progress.

Logically speaking, the fourth should be one no matter what.

But it turned out to be five. Of course, because there is another goal behind, it is really not right to directly say one. Maybe it can be regarded as an announcement that the matter is not completely over... But if this is the case, it is directly limited to five from the beginning. Wouldn't it be better to count down from five, no matter how you look at it.

It's all very far-fetched.

It was patchwork, very chaotic.

This kind of puzzle-solving type of thing is what Sano is least good at.

Of course, Sano has nothing to be good at or bad at.

Purely plug-in can't solve this problem.

If the person is in front of you, you can still get the reference answer directly from the side through the fox's eyes, but under that premise, ask for the answer directly.

It seems to be simpler.

All in all, under such circumstances, it is almost impossible for Sano to think of the answer by himself, and the answer he thinks may not necessarily be right.

But in any case, apart from the one who is not in Neon, and Hunter, who died inexplicably, there should be five places that can be determined at present, only the last one is missing, and five points can be combined to form The pattern... after the phrase "sentimental" that reminds me of gin.

Sano clicked on the top of Suzuki's tower.

… Out of curiosity, Sano searched for the appearance of the silver star badge that Hunter should have gotten. It is a silver five-pointed star badge that connects five locations.

It just happened to be a five-pointed star pattern.

...Although it still feels far-fetched, it does correspond to the theme.

"Dudu-"

Just in time for Conan's phone call.

"Hey, Sano..."

"The location is the tower of Suzuki's house."

For some reason, Sano didn't feel that his judgment this time would be wrong, so he just threw it out, making Conan on the other end of the phone stunned.

"...Ah, I thought the same thing, it seems to be right."

There was a little more smile in Conan's voice... Since Sano didn't say the answer until now, it must have been just now.

Can get the answer in about the same time as Sano.

Conan felt that this was a rare thing, so that even at this juncture, he still unconsciously felt a little flattered.

"Judging from what the last target said to his wife and daughter, and the time to go back, I'm afraid everything will be over by eight o'clock at the latest. I'm rushing to where, but it may not be in time... How long will it take for you to arrive? "

"what?"

Sano knowingly asked, "How long is what?"

Conan was stunned again when he heard the words: "...Why, don't tell me you have already passed...have you arrived at the place? Didn't you just solve this puzzle?"

"No, I just found out."

"Hey?"

Conan was silent for a few seconds, and tentatively asked in disbelief.

"Then you, don't plan to come over?"

"if not."

"...Why don't you come here?"

"Why do you want to go there?"

"why……"

Conan, who was on the skateboard, choked for a while before he could say anything.

"Of course it's to save people!"

"Save someone."

Sano calmly said: "Let's not say that this guy has nothing to do with me, whether he lives or dies is none of my business, let alone a garbage man, and even if he really needs to be rescued... then you can be sure, within 10 minutes Can I get there?"

"This……"

Conan immediately became hesitant.

This is a valid statement, and there is absolutely no way to refute it.

"Maybe it's not easy for me in front of me to say anything, but in the back..."

Conan forcibly found a reason, and said, "I'm here, don't you think I don't exist, even if the problem can't be solved, it's okay for me to delay, until you, the main force, come to finish it."

"You seem to have misunderstood something."

Sano remained calm, and said: "First, that guy is so dangerous, how can you be so sure that it will be useful if I pass by, and it will be finished, maybe it will be the corpse...and the one who was collected."

Before Conan could speak, Sano said again: "Secondly, I didn't treat you as if you didn't exist. On the contrary, I didn't go there because I believed in you. I believe you will be able to solve the problem. I believe I will leave it to you." You'll be fine, I trust you, I trust you."

After finishing speaking, Sano hung up the phone directly, leaving Conan in a mess in the wind.

"..."

Let go of your shit! !
Conan almost dropped his phone.

First he said that the murderer was too dangerous, and then he said that he believed that he would definitely be able to handle it.

He is invincible after co-authoring it, right? ?
Indeed, even if one of these two reasons is singled out casually, it is tenable, but if the two are put together, the conflict will be too big.

It is clearly for the sake of sophistry and sophistry!

Especially the latter.

Saying "believe" so many times in a row, is this stroking "conscience"! ?
Conan glanced at the time, and considering Sano's temper, he didn't call back to stalk him... mainly because he didn't have the time.

Time is running out and scoring is prioritized.

The tower of Suzuki's house can't be overtaken, so first find a high place to determine the location of the target.

Conan stopped his skateboard and ran into a tall building beside him.

And at the same time.

On the top of the tower of Suzuki’s house, Sano, who hung up the phone, was squatting and looking at the figure lying on the ground. The sniper rifle in his hand was aimed at the small window on the roof of a small building in the distance, and there were paintings on it. With a five-pointed star.

"Not right."

Sano raised his head slightly, and the howling night wind hit his face.

The smell of confusion.

"Big black."

"Gah!"

In the night sky, the black crow melted into the darkness. Even if you looked carefully, you could only see a blurry outline, like a shadow.

"found it."

Dahei sent back a few numbers.

Sano quickly took out a thing similar to a tablet. After clicking on it, there were dense numbers sorted inside, and after clicking on three of them.

Three small screens are separated.

...By installing bugs and micro-cameras on the crows, the speed of information transmission obtained by the reconnaissance network can be greatly reduced.

There is nothing to talk about this way, after all, Sano himself installed this thing on Dahei, and now he just copied and pasted a lot.

The only problem is that.

Too much wear and tear.

As small and precise instruments, bugs and miniature cameras are prone to problems, especially when they have a huge base.

Especially mounted on the body of the crow.

Flying around every day, not to mention easy to fall, but also wind and rain.

It's not that Sano really can't afford the money, it's just...

Too much trouble.

Look at the screen again.

There are three groups of six people in total, distributed in different locations... Are all of them snipers?

Ok?
Sano zoomed in on one of the three screens.

In the picture, there is a guy who looks like an oriental man.

Sano had an impression of this guy. He was one of the three characters suspected of colluding with Hunter when he was still considered the murderer. of.

Carlos.

plum.

Is it called by this name? It seems to be a mixed race of East and West?
But judging by the appearance, it's not obvious.

Of course, this is not important, what is important is the identity of this guy.

He is also a former Marine Corps soldier, and he is also a top sniper who can compete with Hunter at his peak.

Just in terms of time, this Carlos is considered a senior.

In other words, this person has grown up longer than Hunter.

Correspondingly, they age faster.

I don't know if the level has dropped... Considering that this guy has been following Spencer all the time, he should have been training all the time.

Not too weak.

At this moment, Dahei sent back a message: "Master, another group of people sneaked into the tower, and the target should be the guy at the top of the tower."

"Ah."

Sano swiped the screen again, and saw twenty or thirty people on the screen who couldn't see clearly because of the distance... There was a high probability that they were also Spencer's people.

Sano put on the earphones, paying special attention to Carlos' situation.

…When Sano saw these guys, he thought it was Bai Wuchang who was worried that he could not solve the problem alone, so he hired some guys with extra money to ensure his safety and kill his opponents.

But after it was confirmed that this group of people belonged to Spencer, the nature changed.

They are also from the Marine Corps, and they help each other out of friendship.

Compared to this, Sano felt that Spencer had received an order from above, so he acted secretly, intending to silence his words and wash away the "shame".

The premise is that Bai Wuchang loses first.

"Master, that waltz has come out!"

There was another news from Dahei.

Sano drew out another small screen, and as expected, he saw Bai Wuchang whose face changed drastically after seeing the five-pointed star painted on the window.

"Master, Conan is over there!"

Sano swipe the screen again... The screen seems to be a bit insufficient.

then.

Conan, who was at the top of the building not far from Bai Wuchang, quickly locked the target's position, and then used his glasses to find that the muzzle of the gun on the top of Suzuki's tower had been aimed at the opponent. Before he had time to think, he twisted his shoes.

"Let me go!!"

A football shot drew an arc, and before the bullet shattered the window, it shattered the window first, and then hit Bai Wuchang's head, causing him to lose consciousness.

Fall to the side.

By the way, he also dodged the bullet that should have hit the forehead.

"Damn it, it's this brat again!?"

Seeing that the person below noticed Conan's existence, he shot wildly in anger, but turned into a stroke master again, and every bullet "jingle" hit the foot of the plague god who was running away.

Sano couldn't help but feel a little speechless.

...How does it feel that a person who is usually quite powerful has come to Conan's side.

Just turn them all into waste?
The simplest and most direct example.

It is the silver fox under Sano Black Cat Vest, and Calvados.

"Master, I saw Akai Shuichi!"

Hearing Dahei's excited voice, Sano subconsciously switched the screen.

In the picture is Akai Shuichi wearing the skin of Okiya Subaru and holding a sniper rifle.
