Toru Amuro was hiding in the apartment building opposite. He didn't turn on the lights, opened the curtains a little, and observed Chu Ming's every move through a telescope.

The last time Granburch tracked down Shuichi Akai, he sent him a message saying that he and Shuichi Akai were involved in the case together. At that time, he arranged for someone to delay the order of Shuichi Akai's transcript, which disgusted him. However, he still distilled the key points from Granburch's long speech.

——Granburch and Shuichi Akai were involved in this case together.

That means he is among those passengers!

Toru Amuro asked the Metropolitan Police Department for the transcript sequence, but did not find the name Matsutake Yusuke, which was usually used by Granburr. This made him happy, as it seemed that he could get some clues about Granburr.

Eliminate those who do not meet the requirements one by one in the order of the records, and then arrange people to investigate and test them one by one.

Finally, Toru Amuro turned his attention to Fujino Tsumeaki, who has been very popular recently and has been following behind Kogoro Mori.

Combining the novels he read on the dark web and the messages Granburr sent him, Toru Amuro felt that he might have figured out Granburr's true identity.

He had investigated this Fujino Chuming, and had solved many cases following the recently famous Maori Kogoro. In particular, he was quite familiar with the little boy who had been rescued many times by Granburch before.

All these doubts made Toru Amuro more and more suspicious, so he sneaked into Chu Ming's house and searched it himself. Unfortunately, he found nothing. Before he had time to check thoroughly, his spy reported that he saw Chu Ming on his way home. He could only make some hasty preparations and finally left a few eavesdropping devices and left for the time being.

Toru Amuro looked carefully through the telescope but didn't find any clues. When he saw Chu Ming enter the room, he put down the telescope, lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Chu Ming pushed the door and entered the room. He keenly discovered that there were several eavesdropping devices installed in the room. He suppressed the urge to remove them, sat down on the sofa, turned on the air conditioner and TV, and prepared to watch some TV series to relieve his stress.

however--

Looking at the air conditioner that was just buzzing but not working, Chu Ming couldn't help but clench his fists.

You're such a good guy, Bourbon. Look at your thick eyebrows and big eyes, how could you secretly mess with my air conditioner?

It was fine when I left, but broke after you came in?

Chu Ming realized what he was up to, gritted his teeth, opened the drawer and dialed the repair number.

Soon the doorbell rang, Chu Ming went to open the door, and it was indeed a familiar dark-skinned man with a gentle business smile: "Hello sir, I am Amuro Toru, the repairman you scheduled to come to your home to repair the air conditioner."

Okay, you can act, right? Who can’t do that?

Chu Ming quickly pushed open the door and invited him in. "Master, you're here very quickly. I just made a phone call and your company sent someone to repair it not long ago? With such efficiency, no wonder your revenue is so high!"

Amuro Toru walked into the room with a maintenance box and quickly went forward to repair the air conditioner: "Sir, you can go ahead and do your work. I will call you to come for inspection when I am ready."

Chu Ming shook his head. Who knows if Bourbon would secretly install a camera for him after he left? This kind of thing is hard to guard against, and it is not easy to remove it to maintain its image.

"It's okay. Mr. Amuro must be bored working alone. I can chat with you to relieve the boredom of work." Chu Ming smiled. "And I can secretly learn Mr. Amuro's repair techniques. Next time there is a problem, I can fix it myself. I wanted to disassemble it myself just now, but I didn't try it because I was afraid that I couldn't put it back together after disassembling it."

With this sentence, Chu Ming hinted that he might take apart the air conditioner in the future to make Toru Amuro hesitate and not dare to tamper with it. Otherwise, if it is really discovered that there is a bug or camera in the air conditioner, then Toru Amuro, who has repaired the air conditioner, will be the first suspect.

Toru Amuro is not stupid, to be exact, he is very smart.

He decisively gave up the idea of ​​installing some small tools during the repair. After all, his plan this time was to keep encountering Chu Ming by chance, get close to him, infiltrate their group, and once he was sure whether Chu Ming was Granburch, he would defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.

In this way, even if Chu Ming is indeed Granburch, his actions will not alert the enemy; if not, it will not have any impact on Chu Ming.

Chu Ming stood behind Amuro Toru, feeling bored, and started to make small talk: "Mr. Amuro, your movements are really skillful, what do you do for a living?"

Amuro Toru turned around and looked at Chu Ming with an indescribable look: "I'm an air conditioner repairman."

Chu Ming realized that he had said nonsense, but since Toru Amuro had come to him, he must have investigated him in advance. He knew that he was a detective and still came to him so openly. This must have shocked him.

"Not really." Chu Ming's eyes scanned Bourbon like an X-ray, "Mr. Amuro, I'm a detective. Especially after studying with the famous Mr. Maori Kogoro for a period of time, I have a clearer grasp of some subtle clues."

"As a detective, Uncle Maori always taught me to be wary of burglars seeking revenge, so I was suspicious of you the moment you walked in. I didn't buy my air conditioner near here. I bought it at an electronics store in Ginza and had it installed at my home. I called the repair number at 3:12, but nine minutes later, at 3:21, you came knocking on my door."

"It takes much longer than ten minutes to drive from here to Ginza. In addition, after receiving the maintenance call, we have to arrange for employees to come over. All of this takes time. It is absolutely impossible to arrive in nine minutes. I followed you from the moment you entered the door. I didn't lead the way for you, but you walked to the location of the air conditioner that needed repair with a clear purpose. How did you know that the broken air conditioner was in the living room? What if it was in my study? And you wanted to send me away as soon as I entered the door. Do you want to do something in my house, Mr. Amuro?"

Toru Amuro looked at Chu Ming who was talking eloquently, his brows full of confidence, and his reasoning process and facts were almost the same.

But luckily he was prepared.

He completely avoided the traps in Chu Ming's questions and went straight to the heart of the matter.

"Sir, here's what happened. I am indeed a maintenance worker for Panasonic air conditioners. I came here quickly because I happened to be doing maintenance nearby, so the company assigned me directly. If you don't believe me, you can call the maintenance number you just called to confirm."

Chu Ming looked doubtful and called back.

After a moment, she apologized to Amuro Toru with a red face, at a loss: "I'm sorry, Mr. Amuro, I, I... I was rude, I..."

Chu Ming's face turned red as he imagined Conan's early image, perfectly portraying the embarrassment and helplessness of a detective who was completely confident in his own reasoning but was suddenly slapped in the face.

Toru Amuro looked at the embarrassed boy in front of him and didn't see any trace of Granburch at all. He couldn't help but wonder if this was a smoke screen deliberately released by Granburch.

He suddenly thought that Granburch was proficient in computers and had a wild imagination. Maybe he wrote the novel and deliberately put true and false information in it, using the detective named Fujino Chuming as bait to see if there was any undercover agent who would take the bait... and the last text message might have been used to test him.

Thinking of this, Amuro Toru broke out in a cold sweat. His actions today were completely a step into Granburch's trap!

No, don't panic, stay calm.

His actions today were completely reasonable. Everyone in the organization knew that he liked to take part-time jobs everywhere. He did work part-time at Panasonic Air Conditioning in the past few days. There was no flaw in this.

Without evidence, Granburch couldn't do anything about him even if he had suspicions.

Regardless of whether it was Granburch's smoke bomb or not, he had to get close to Fujino Chuming.

Being an undercover agent is like dancing on the edge of a knife. In order to obtain clues, some things are unavoidable.

However, he still needs to think about how to approach it specifically.
