In the bustling city center, a magnificent department store stands beside the street.

And just opposite this building, there is a quiet and cozy shop, the Macaroni Restaurant.

At this moment, the store is filled with rich aroma, and the guests are either chatting in low voices or quietly enjoying the food.

However, the table of people in the corner seemed a little out of place.

Uncle Maori had a cigarette in his mouth and a speechless expression on his face. There was a band-aid on his forehead, which made him look very funny.

Sitting opposite him were Inspector Megure and Inspector Takagi, while Inspector Sato sat on the same side with Conan between him and Uncle Mori.

So, why are they gathering here?

This story begins more than ten minutes ago.

At that time, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko decided to go shopping for clothes, so Uncle Mouri and Conan chose to stay in the car in the parking lot and wait.

However, waiting was too boring, and Uncle Maori, who was usually stingy, became unusually generous. He decided to take Conan to buy something across the street to pass the time.

Coincidentally, just as Uncle Maori was crossing the road, he happened to meet Officer Sato who was performing a disguise mission.

Perhaps because he saw the beautiful Officer Sato, Uncle Mori's true nature instantly erupted and he approached her without hesitation.

However, what he never expected was that he was mistaken for the criminal that Inspector Megure and his team wanted to catch.

As a result, poor Uncle Maori was caught off guard and was caught on the spot, and his forehead was injured.

As for the person that Inspector Megure wants to arrest, he is a habitual offender who has been beating women recently.

"What? The guy you want to catch is about 150cm tall, and I don't look like him at all, okay?" Uncle Maori couldn't help complaining.

Officer Takagi whispered, "It's just that Mr. Mori's attitude towards Officer Sato is a bit..."

"I really can't see any good intentions." Inspector Megure echoed.

Officer Sato smiled sheepishly and said something even more hurtful, "I think it's pretty dangerous too."

The corners of Uncle Maori's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly put out the cigarette in his hand without saying anything else.

Conan sneered beside him.

You old pervert, let’s see if you dare to flirt with others again in the future.

Out of professionalism, Inspector Megure began to review the recent series of beatings.

Uncle Maori also took the initiative to ask about the details of the case.

There are three cases in total this time.

The first incident happened two weeks ago. The victim was a lady named Mizutani Ryoko. She was waiting for the traffic light at an intersection at night when she was suddenly rear-ended by a car.

When she got out of the car and wanted to argue with the other party, she was suddenly attacked by him with a metal rod.

The second victim was named Endo Hitoshi. He was attacked by gangsters after coming out of the toilet in the park ten nights ago.

As for the third incident, it happened a day ago. The victim was named Michiko Ishiguro. She was also attacked at night just after coming out of a telephone booth.

And that telephone booth, the one on the side of the road, was where Uncle Maori was arrested.

These three people didn't know each other, they just dressed in an exaggerated way, and other than that they had nothing in common.

In cases like this, the randomness is so high that there is no way to assume who the murderer will attack next.

Therefore, out of desperation, Inspector Megure and his colleagues resorted to this desperate measure and took the risk of letting Inspector Sato take the risk himself.

As a result, not only did the criminal fail to catch him, but Uncle Maori was also lured out.

Fortunately, Inspector Megure was kind enough to hand the photo to Uncle Mori.

And hope that this famous detective can see something different from it.

After Uncle Maori's careful observation, he finally came to a conclusion.

That is, all three of them are mixed-race.

This shocking conclusion left everyone present dumbfounded.

At this moment, a hand suddenly snatched the photo from Uncle Maori, and the owner of the hand couldn't help but praise, "Wow, it's so cute!"

"These girls' hot girl makeup is so beautiful, especially the one in the middle, it's so dark."

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes were full of admiration.

However, Uncle Maori’s conclusion about mixed-race girls is completely wrong. Nowadays, girls like this kind of makeup, so they deliberately draw their makeup like this.

Doesn't look very Japanese.

Shiina Yuichi, who was following behind her, also took a glance.

cute?

Isn’t this all broken?

Also, why are Inspector Megure and the others here too?

Didn’t we just separate from the Metropolitan Police Department?

The police are dispatched again?

Shiina Yuichi looked at those people and felt so powerless that he wanted to complain but didn't know where to start.

"Huh? Xiaolan...where's your sister?" Conan looked at Suzuki Sonoko, Haibara Ai, and Shiina Yuichi, but didn't see the figure of Mouri Ran, so he asked.

"She went to the bathroom and asked us to come here to find you. By the way, she said she sent an email. Didn't you receive it?" Shiina Yuichi explained.

mail?

Uncle Maori subconsciously touched his pocket and took out his mobile phone, and there was indeed an unread email.

It's just that the time when he sent the email happened to be when he was 'arrested', so I didn't notice it.

When Inspector Megure saw Shiina Yuichi, his eyes sparkled with the light of seeing a savior.

"Brother Shiina, you came at the right time. We have encountered a big problem. Please help us and give us some reference."

Hearing this, Shiina Yuichi grinned.

But it seems that it cannot be refused.

Then Inspector Megure repeated the case of the series of attacks.

This also included the incident where Uncle Mori flirted with Officer Sato and was pinned down.

Shiina Yuichi looked at Uncle Mori whose face was slightly flushed, and felt that this was indeed something he would do.

Both Suzuki Sonoko and Haibara Ai squinted their eyes and looked at this lecherous old man.

Shiina Yuichi decisively chose to skip this topic.

After taking the photo from Suzuki Sonoko, he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The only things they have in common are night, metal bars and the victims' makeup.

No, it seems there are some things in common.

Shiina Yuichi stared at Suzuki Sonoko with his gray-brown eyes.

"Sonoko, where did you get this bracelet?" asked Shiina Yuichi.

Suzuki Sonoko raised the bracelet in her hand and said, "It's a gift from that department store. It seems they are holding a promotion."

Just as the two were talking, Mao Lilan called.

"Hello? Xiaolan, what? You found a body!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present took action.
