I was in Conan, and after picking up Xiao Ai, I was chased by Hongzi.

"What are you doing, uncle?"

Conan, who returned to the room, looked curiously at Kogoro Moori, who was putting on his coat.

"Where have you been?" Mouri Kogoro fastened the cufflinks of his shirt, "The reception will start soon."

"Mr. Mori. Officer Megure asked you to come over." Takagi Wataru informed as he stood in front of the door.

"I see."

"I'll go too!" Conan quickly followed.

Mouri Kogoro grabbed Conan by the collar and threw him back to the room, "You stay here to change clothes."

The door closed, and Conan, who was rolling his eyes, showed a sly look on his face.

……

会议 室

"I see, Yashiro Hideto's accidental death is also problematic."

After hearing the latest news from Officer Megure, Mouri Kogoro pinched his chin and slowly began to think deeply.

"Yes." Takagi Wataru opened the transcript, "According to Officer Sato, there seems to be something wrong with the scorch marks on the kite string on the seat belt."

Officer Megure turned around and crossed his hands on the table, "How are you, Brother Maori, have you thought of anything?"

"You ask me this..." Mouri Kogoro didn't have a clue yet. He looked at Takagi Wataru, "Are there any other leftovers?"

"Yes. There are burnt juice cans, etc., and some scraps and scraps were left at the scene. However, all those things have been destroyed."

"Juice cans and kite strings..."

Just when everyone in the conference room was at a loss what to do, Conan burst out from nowhere.

He held up a paper bag filled with air, sealed the mouth with his fingers, and lowered his right hand towards the bulging bag.

"Snapped."

The crisp sound in the air disturbed everyone's thoughts.

Mouri Kogoro was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair.

"Hey, are you shocked?" Conan smiled like a naughty child.

"You brat...!"

Seeing that Mouri Kogoro was about to have an attack, Conan quickly explained: "I originally wanted to shake the Coke can and make the Coke spurt out."

"It's a pity that Coke is not sold here..."

His expression even looked a little regretful.

"You still want to shake a Coke?"

Mouri Kogoro clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands beat slightly.

"Huh..." Takagi Sheba breathed a long sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "My heart almost stopped."

"Ah -" before he could finish his words, he suddenly straightened his back and his eyes widened: "A jar that will scare people!"

Shiratori Rensaburo frowned slightly, "Flash grenade."

"Yes, he looks like a can."

"Shiratori, what are you talking about...silly, idiot?" Officer Megure tilted his head and showed ignorance in his eyes.

"Flash grenade - also called flash bomb." Takagi Wataru leaned down and explained patiently: "It will paralyze the opponent's movements with a dazzling flash and explosion sound. It is a grenade that looks like a can."

Shiratori added: "For example, if you tie the flash grenade with the safety pin unplugged with a kite string, then tie the kite string to the seat belt buckle, and pull down the buckle to fasten the seat belt..."

——Flash bombs will detonate in cars traveling at high speeds.

Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized.

"It turns out that even if he didn't have a heart attack at the time, he would have been unconscious and unable to drive."

"Then the car will rush down the slope in one breath and fall weakly into the cliff."

"But flash bombs shouldn't be that easy..." Mouri Kogoro murmured, and Mu Ran smiled knowingly, "No, you can buy anything now as long as you are willing."

"That's right." Shiratori Rensaburo crossed his arms and glanced at Officer Megure, "If you just want to scare the other party, you don't have to use real flash bombs. Even using a large cannon can still achieve the goal. desired effect.”

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Then, Captain Kaito Wataru and Director Misaki pushed the door open and came in.

"Officer Megure, I just received news that the body suspected to be Chairman Yashiro has been found."

Officer Memu's expression changed.

"Captain, I have something to discuss with you." He stood up and said.

"whats the matter?"

"Regarding the welcome reception at five o'clock, because the death of Chairman Yashiro may cause panic among the masses, can we cancel the banquet?"

"That...but." Captain Kaito Wataru looked embarrassed.

"Please, Captain."

"No, Officer Megure, please wait a moment." Mouri Kogoro suddenly said.

"Ok?"

"Let the reception go on as usual." He turned his head, "Because the truth should be revealed by then."

He squinted his eyes slightly, looking confident and calm.

"Could it be that-" Officer Memu suddenly looked back.

Takagi Wataru asked excitedly: "Has your inspiration come?"

"..."

"Ahaha~~~" Mouri Kogoro touched his head, feeling satisfied.

"..."

"But you haven't fallen asleep yet." Shiratiao said mercilessly.

……

The welcome reception was held as scheduled.

Under the shadow of mingling glasses, the truth about the death of Chairman Yashiro and President Yashiro was deliberately buried.

Maybe it confirms that sentence.

——Behind the glamour, there is always filth.

Suzuki Sonoko, whose complexion had recovered, held Otoi Hiroshi's arm and shuttled among the figures. Her dark and bright eyes looked at Otoi Hiroshi's side face without blinking.

A handsome and upright young man with a friendly smile and a casual and indifferent attitude.

Otoi Hiroshi didn't do anything deliberately, but he was always paying attention to everything around him.

In the bright and bright banquet hall, with warm and soft music, people were intoxicated and dancing in the atmosphere of the whole dance.

Only Officer Memu and his entourage not far away looked solemn, with no smiles on their faces.

——Just because the murderer who committed the heinous crime was hidden under this mottled light and shadow.

"Yuanzi, you look good."

Mao Lilan came over and stared at her profile.

"Of course!" Suzuki Sonoko raised her forearm, "I want to have fun, I want to get back the half-day I lost from rest!"

"Yuanzi, you are really..."

Mao Lilan, who was wearing an aqua blue dress, covered her mouth and smiled softly. Her beautiful and young dreamy figure inadvertently attracted countless eyes.

Otoi Hiroshi took a glass of wine from the attendant's hand and walked to Dr. Agasa's side.

"Why do you look so bad, doctor?" He raised his glass.

"——Because I don't let him eat or drink."

Hui Yuan Ai clasped his hands behind his back, his petite figure standing in the shadow, his cold eyes flashing with stars.

"What are you doing standing there?"

Otoi Hiroshi rolled his eyes, and the two looked at each other.

The light and shadow created a black line on the ground that separated the two people.

He stood in the light.

——She stood in the shadows.

"This is more suitable for me," she said.
