Conan's other self

"What! Are you dating?"

In the living room, the doctor looked at Feng Yuan and Hai Yuan Ai in surprise.

Because the brain could not process external information for a while, Maplehara rarely noticed that the doctor also happened to come to the living room, so the two elementary school students were almost caught in the act just now.

But even if it was just a close call, the way they looked at each other together was still noticed by the doctor.

"There's no need for such a big reaction, doctor..." Feng Yuan replied a little embarrassed, and then quietly glanced at Hai Yuan Ai.

Next to her, Haiyuan Ai's earlobes and cheeks were slightly red. She noticed Fengyuan's gaze and rolled her eyes back at him.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" After calming down, the doctor continued to ask.

"Hmm..." Fengyuan struggled a little with his words. In fact, it's okay to let the doctor know, but it feels a little strange to take the initiative to tell the doctor, so the doctor only knows now.

But while he was hesitating, Fengyuan heard Haiyuan Ai beside him speak first.

"Because it's too embarrassing to date him..." Haiyuan Ai crossed his arms, "This guy only knows reasoning and football. He is also good at games and loves to play. His singing is also very ugly. His first love was not me, and he was shrunk by me. Now, who wants him?"

Feng Yuan’s rare dead fish eyes.

"Then..." The doctor was stunned for a moment.

"But... this guy confessed his love to me that day," Haiyuan Ai glanced at Feng Yuan, "I agreed to him on impulse~"

"Yes..." Fengyuan said helplessly, and then lowered his voice to Haiyuan Ai, "But, Haiyuan, my first love is obviously you..."

Whether it’s before or after time travel.

"Hmph," Haiyuan Ai tilted his head, "That person at least sat back and watched for many years while realizing that he fell in love with someone else and did nothing."

"Hey..." Fengyuan was a little helpless.

It's really unreasonable...

But, the many years in between?

"Oh, no matter what, this is really something worth celebrating!" After the surprise, the doctor's eyes were full of relief and excitement, "I'll order a cake to celebrate..."

"It's not that exaggerated, doctor..."

"Doctor, do you want to eat it yourself?" Haiyuan Ai immediately became alert and cast a warning look at the doctor.

"How, how could..."

The doctor touched his head sheepishly.

He quickly changed his words and continued to inquire about the details between the two, but Haihara Ai told him to keep it secret from the primary school students.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Yuan heard his cell phone ring.

It was a message from Okiya Subaru.

Feng Yuan was startled for a moment, and after realizing something, Feng Yuan became a little more serious. Click on the message and it says:

"Investigation completed. Waiting for you to come over."

The investigation of the name Rei Furuya is over.

…

Toru Amuro, formerly known as Rei Fangtani, is a member of the Japanese public security.

After Okiya Subaru confirmed this through his own channels, both Conan and Haibara Ai breathed a sigh of relief. But in the next few days, the situation suddenly changed.

First, Conan accidentally discovered Toru Amuro in the hospital investigating the affairs of Rikudo Kusuda, an organization member he met when he sent Reina Mizuno back to the organization. He also heard Toru Amuro admit with his own ears that his childhood nickname was Zero.

Then, Toru Amuro also found out from Judy and Kamel, who were unaware, that Kusuda Rikudō shot himself in the head and committed suicide.

The secret seemed about to be revealed.

The day after that, Kudo's house.

"Then first we announce the Best Supporting Actor. The presenter is last year's winner, Mr. Johnny Beep."

In the living room, Subaru Okiya, who was wearing a mask, supported his chin with one hand and watched TV quietly. The Oscars ceremony was playing on the TV.

But the ceremony had just begun when the doorbell rang.

He walked to the door, picked up the phone, "Hello..."

"There's a delivery for you."

Before he could say anything, the man outside the door immediately stated his "intention". He put down the phone and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a man with tanned skin.

"Good evening! It's our first time meeting you. I'm Tohru Amuro." The man greeted, "But... we can't count it as our first meeting, right?"

"..."

"I want to chat with you for a few words. Is it convenient for me to come in?"

"Of course." Okiya Subaru replied, "But those of you who brought us please wait outside? Although it's rude, but the house doesn't seem to have that many teacups to entertain guests."

There were several figures vaguely visible at the corner of the wall beside the gate.

"Please don't mind." Toru Amuro glanced back. Those people were all fully armed men he had brought. "They like to wait outside. However, if you say or do something... they can't handle it. Well, I’ll come in and disturb you.”

Okiya Subaru stepped aside and asked Amuro Toru to come in.

When he came to the living room, the TV was still on. Okiya Subaru simply made a pot of tea and came back with a tray.

"Do you like reasoning?" Toru Amuro suddenly said.

"It's not bad." Okiya Subaru still squinted his eyes.

"Then let's start from here! It's just a simple method of replacing corpses."

"Oh... It's a common plot in mystery stories."

"A man was shot in the head with a pistol on Lai Yeshan Road, and then he was set on fire together with the car. Later, the fingerprints of the man's right hand were finally collected from the charred body, and the fingerprints of a boy he had touched before his death were collected. The fingerprints left behind are consistent, thus proving the death of this man. But the strange thing is..."

"What's weird?"

"It's the fingerprints left on that mobile phone. The man is obviously left-handed, but the fingerprints left on the mobile phone are from his right hand. Don't you think it's strange?"

"This is normal." Subaru Okiya replied, "I wonder if you have ever had the experience of reading news on your phone while eating."

"..." Toru Amuro was silent for a moment, "Yes, but there is another possibility. For example, he has to use his right hand."

"Oh why?"

"The phone was picked up by another man before the man took it, and the man who picked up the phone was right-handed."

"Another man?"

"Yeah, it seems that three men touched that phone. So here's the problem," Toru Amuro folded his hands and rested his chin, "The first one who picked up the phone was a fat man, and the second one was wearing a neck brace. The thin man, and the last one is an old man with a pacemaker. Only one of these three people left fingerprints...Who do you think it is?"

"Is he the second skinny man?"

"Oh? What do you say?"

"The first thing that can be ruled out is the third person with a pacemaker. He should be worried that the pacemaker will be interfered by the radio waves of the mobile phone, so he will not pick it up at all. The next step is a bit difficult to judge, but since you specifically emphasized it The first person's characteristic is that he is fat. I think you probably want to imply that his hands are also greasy, right? If the phone is stained with greasy fingerprints, the last two people may not be willing to pick it up, so the fat man picked up the phone at first. The fingerprints on it have probably been wiped off."

"Yeah. Excellent reasoning."

"But after the thin man, didn't the man who was killed also take the mobile phone? That man's fingerprints should also be..."

"What if you move your hands and feet to prevent fingerprints from getting on it?" Toru Amuro said, "I'm afraid that man had anticipated these things and applied a layer of film on his fingertips beforehand!"

"membrane?"

"Yes, that's why he couldn't even hold a can of coffee. In other words, the real deceased was actually the second skinny man. He put the body wearing the same clothes as himself in the car, and then Pretend to be shot and take the opportunity to swap yourself and the body!"

"So, that's really interesting. But how did the man who pretended to be shot leave the scene?"

"Before you answer this question, could you turn off the TV? What I'm about to say is important."

"Does it matter?" Okiya Subaru looked back at the TV and was relieved when he noticed that it was still far away from the part he wanted to watch. "I pay close attention to the Oscars. Then what? How did that man--"

"The man and the woman who fired the gun were accomplices! I'm afraid he sneaked into the woman's car and escaped! He hid it from those who were responsible for monitoring the scene from a distance."

"It turns out there are still people responsible for surveillance."

"Yes, they perfectly deceived the person responsible for surveillance. Anyway, the man fell down after blood spurted from his head."

"Blood spurting from the head?"

"This is also an illusion, because the man who was hit was always wearing a black knitted hat. Isn't there a doctor nearby who can make inventions that make MI6 ashamed? If you ask him to help, make a matching blank It should be a piece of cake to flick the device that sprays blood-colored paint from the knitted hat.”

"So the man asked the woman to shoot a blank bullet into his head?"

"No, shooting in the head was the order given by the man in charge of surveillance. He had already expected it. That is what the man in charge of surveillance would do when he kills someone with a gun."

That's how Cohen was shot in the head.

"That man is really awesome, he is like the hero of a spy novel!"

"But there was someone else who made this plan. The evidence is that before he was hit, the man muttered something like this-unexpectedly, it ended here."

"I didn't expect that so far... I feel like I'm just lamenting that I'm unlucky, right?"

"Yes, of course you would think so. But if the sentence is completed, the meaning will be completely different-unexpectedly, it is within his expectation so far! Yes, this sentence is actually in Praise the boy who made this plan!”

--oh? Is it just that?

As Toru Amuro was speaking, what Belmode had said suddenly appeared in his mind, making him slightly startled.

"I see, that's really interesting." Subaru Okiya praised.

"The next step is easy," Toru Amuro came back to his senses, "Just look for the suspicious person who suddenly appeared next to the pair of teenagers after the incident on Hayama Road."

"That pair of teenagers?" Okiya Subaru was slightly stunned, "Why did you suddenly change your explanation? You shouldn't have just said..."

"Yes, and then I found this place. I'm not sure what the relationship between the young man and the owner of this room, Yusaku Kudo, is to you. But what is certain is that you can live here because of them. of."

Toru Amuro took out his cell phone and put it on the table.

"I'm waiting for news! Now my men are following your companions and intend to catch them. I think even you will tell the truth when it affects the life and death of your companions! But if possible, I hope Can you take off the mask before I receive the message, Mr. Subaru Okiya. No, FBI investigator... Shuichi Akai!"

Okiya Subaru follows the good deeds.

He took off the mask and put it aside, then coughed slightly, "Although I don't know what you are talking about, I wear a mask just because I am worried about infecting you..."

"I'm not talking about this mask! I'm talking about letting you take off your disguise..." Amuro Toru became a little angry, "Akai Shuichi!"

"Disguise? I still don't know what you are talking about..."

As Subaru Okiya spoke, he turned to look at the TV. It seemed that part of his attention was always on the TV.

Then the host's voice came from the TV:

"Next, the Best Screenplay Award will be presented! The winner of this honor is Mr. Kudo Yusaku, who is a best-selling writer who participated in writing a movie script for the first time and is well-known for the "Night Baron" series! The title of the work is " Scarlet Investigator》!”

The camera gave a close-up picture of Kudo Yusaku, and it was Kudo Yukiko sitting next to him.

Kudo Yusaku nodded slightly, then stood up.

Kudo Yukiko waved excitedly to the camera.

In front of the TV, Subaru Okiya put his right hand on the back of the sofa and watched quietly, as if the series of conversations just now had not happened.

"Why, do you care?" Toru Amuro asked.

"Yes..." Okiya Subaru replied, "After all, it is the owner of this family who agreed to my living here and helped me a lot..."

"At this time, you are still in the mood to watch this..."

"By the way, that man named Akai Shuichi," Okiya Subaru coughed again, "does he look like me? His appearance, voice, etc."

"Hmph! You can use makeup to look like you, and you can use a voice changer to sound!"

"voice Changer?"

"I walked around here a few times during the day today and did some research on whether there were any inventions by Dr. Agasa who lived next door that had good reviews but suddenly stopped being sold. The answer I came up with is the collar-type voice changer! As long as If you tie it around your neck, you can use the vibration of your throat to freely change your voice, which is very useful for dealing with harassing phone calls and so on..."

Toru Amuro stood up and walked to Subaru Okiya, "Yes, it's just the right size to hide in your turtleneck sweater—"

"—under the collar!"

He took off Okiya Subaru's collar in one move and was stunned for a moment. Because there is nothing under the collar.

"Your cell phone is ringing." Okiya Subaru reminded.

Just now, Toru Amuro's cell phone rang on the table.

"Ah...um..."

Toru Amuro picked up his cell phone with some embarrassment and answered the call, "What's wrong? Why is it so slow? Ah? A-Akai?"

His tone sounded very surprised, and he subconsciously walked around the living room while answering the phone.

"What? Akai shot!? Then what? What about the tracking?" Amuro Toru shouted into the phone.

"The front tire was shot and the car crashed." The reply was loud enough that Subaru Okiya, who was sitting on the side, could hear it. "The cars behind were also hit one after another, making it impossible to continue moving."

Okiya Subaru listened to the voices on both sides at the same time and frowned slightly.

"As long as there is still a car that can move, chase me quickly! If I let him escape this time, I don't know where he will hide!"

"I'm sorry," Okiya Subaru interrupted, "Can you be a little quieter? The owner of this house is receiving a very important award now and will give an acceptance speech soon."

Toru Amuro was slightly startled.

He waited for a while until there was strange movement on the other side of the phone before talking on the phone again.

"Hey! How's the situation? Answer me quickly!"

"It's been such a long time..." But this time it was not his men who answered, but his familiar voice, "Bourbon, no, it should be Toru Amuro now, right?"

Shuichi Akai…

Amuro Toru's eyes narrowed slightly.

"As compensation for my crashing your car, I'll give you a small gift." Shuichi Akai said, "It's the pistol that Kusuda Rikudou used to commit suicide. If you investigate how you got it, you might be able to find out. Order something. This is Japan. Compared with the FBI, it should be easier for you to investigate this kind of thing, right?"

"You guy..." Toru Amuro was a little surprised, "Have you already figured out my true identity?"

"I had already begun to suspect you when I was in the organization, but you were exposed very thoroughly, and it was so low..."

"Tsk."

"I'm afraid your plan is to catch me and hand me over to those guys, so that you can make great achievements and get deep into the center of the organization. That's all I'm saying. I hope you won't just focus on the present and make a mistake about who you should be hunting... And I don't want to Be your enemy!"

"Also," after a pause, Akai Shuichi continued, "I still feel very sorry about him..."

Toru Amuro fell into silence.

After a while, he informed his men to retreat and then hung up the phone. He turned around and found that Subaru Okiya was still watching the TV show.

"I'm really sorry, it seems I made a mistake," Toru Amuro said, "I'm going back first."

"OK."

"Before I go back, can I ask you a question?" Opening the door to the living room, Toru Amuro turned around and asked, "Why would you let someone as suspicious as me come in? Most people wouldn't let in, right?"

"I heard the kid next door talking about you," Okiya Subaru replied, "I heard you said yourself that you used to work a lot of odd jobs, so I wondered if you were a part-time courier..."

"That's it..."

"And judging from your expression at that time, I thought you just wanted to chat."

"Haah...is that so?"

After all, he made a mistake, so Toru Amuro smiled sheepishly and left.

Okiya Subaru stood in front of the door for a while, until the movement outside the door disappeared, and then he took the small device for detecting bugs and walked around the place where Amuro Tohru passed by.

Then he sat back on the sofa and continued watching the awards ceremony.

Yusaku Kudo is conducting an interview.

"So, what are Mr. Kudo's plans for his next work?"

"Yes." Kudo Yusaku nodded, "But there isn't much I can tell you now. I can only say that the protagonists are twins."

"twin?"

"Yeah, a series of stories about a pair of twin detectives..."

Kudo Yusaku said and winked at the camera.

This action obviously made many women of all ages happy, but "Okiya Subaru" in front of the TV vaguely felt that this was for him...

"Hey, Feng Yuan," Conan walked down the stairs, "They've all gone and you didn't say a word, you're just watching TV here alone..."

"You can hear it from the detective badge, right?" Fengyuan pressed lightly on his mouth and turned off the micro-voice changer hidden under the disguise, "And it's the Oscars ceremony now..."

"Tch...it's not normal for my parents to win awards..."

"But it's not that frequent. If you miss it, you can only watch the recording. Really, I just chose today to come..."

"Because he can't wait...but..."

Conan couldn't help but look at Kaedehara's current appearance. In order to prevent Amuro from leaving and coming back, Kaedehara hadn't taken off his disguise yet, "Haihara is really amazing. This is her first time doing cross-dressing, right?" ?”

Although there are the cross-dressing props left by Kudo Yukiko as a reference, after all, they are used on different people's faces, so this is still the first time for Haibara Ai to actually apply the cross-dressing skills she just learned.

"Well, she is also very talented in this area." Fengyuan was slightly proud, as if he was praising himself, "I can't see any difference at all..."
