Detective Conan: Orange-flavored summer

Chapter 21 The mask deliberately left at the scene

"Thank you, sister." Conan got down from the counter, stood on the ground, put his hand to his chin, and thought. It must be Shangguan and Miss Hirota. Who could the other robber be? Could they be a team? And the long-haired police officer must be the contact person. This was the only way to explain it.

……

"Sister Xiaolan, I'm back." Conan ran into the bank in a hurry with something in his hand, but there was no sign of Xiaolan and the others inside.

"Ah?!" Conan's eyes turned into small dots and he stood there in a daze.

He ran to Hirota Masami's window and said to her, "Sister Masami, do you know where Sister Xiaolan and Sister Chinatsu went?"

Hirota Masami lowered her head and said to Conan with a smile: "Yes, Conan, Chinatsu and Xiaolan left with the police officers. I heard that they found the robber's car."

"Oh, okay, thank you, Sister Yamei." Conan said in a childish tone.

Suddenly, he changed the subject and asked, "Sister Yamei, what did you and Sister Qianxia eat for lunch?"

After saying that, Conan immediately stared at Hirota Masami's reaction, but unfortunately, Hirota Masami said calmly: "Sushi, it's over there."

"Hehe, I went to buy some too." Conan shook the bag in his hand.

Then he continued, "Then Sister Yamei, I'll be leaving first. Goodbye."

After Conan left, Hirota Masami thought to herself, it's really not that simple, thanks to Chinatsu for finding a substitute, otherwise there would be too many flaws.

……

"Oh, I forgot about Conan!" Mao Lilan beside Shangguan Chinatsu said in panic.

Shangguan Qianxia smiled and comforted him: "Oh, Xiaolan, don't worry, I bet he will find this place by himself later."

"No, I have to go back to find him. What if he gets caught by bad guys?" Xiaolan said, shaking her head.

Just when Xiaolan was about to take a taxi back, a voice appeared.

"Sister Xiaolan, why did you forget me over there!" Conan came over on the high-tech skateboard invented for him by Dr. Agasa.

Xiaolan looked at Conan with some surprise, and then she said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Conan."

"Hmph, I'll forgive Sister Xiaolan this time!" Conan said in a proud and arrogant manner.

Then, he looked at Xiaolan and Shangguan Qianxia and continued, "Have you found any clues here?"

Shangguan Qianxia said, "Yes, the police found a hood and gloves left by one of the robbers here."

Then, Shangguan Qianxia continued to speak: "What's the matter, Conan, do you want to take a look?"

Conan's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, saying, "Is it okay, Sister Chinatsu?" He was just worrying about how to get the hood and gloves, but he didn't expect Shangguan to ask about it.

Shangguan Qianxia nodded, walked towards a police officer and explained the situation. The police officer didn't say much and handed over the hood and gloves.

After getting it, Shangguan Qianxia handed it to Conan with a smile. At this time, Xiaolan said: "Qianxia, ​​is this really okay?"

Shangguan Qianxia smiled at Xiaolan and said, "It's okay. The police have checked it anyway. Just satisfy Conan's detective heart and think of it as compensation for forgetting him at the bank."

Hearing this, Xiaolan thought about it and felt that what Shangguan Qianxia said made sense, so she didn't stop her.

Looking at Conan who looked thoughtful, Shangguan Chinatsu glanced towards Xiaolan to make sure she wouldn't notice the situation here.

Shangguan Qianxia squatted down with an ambiguous smile on her lips. She said, "Conan, don't you think it's too deliberate to leave these hoods and gloves here? After all, there are two robbers."

Conan nodded and said, "Well, it's too deliberate. It feels like someone left it here on purpose."

"Oh, and look at the lipstick mark on the hood. The location of the mark doesn't look like a mouth, but more like... a chin!" Shangguan Qianxia continued.

Conan looked at the location of the lipstick mark. He opened the evidence bag and looked inside. He thought to himself, as expected...

The next moment, he cried out in pain: "Ah, it hurts! It hurts!"

Uncle Maori held Conan's neck and said, "You still feel pain? This is an important piece of evidence. And Chinatsu, why did you follow him and make trouble?"

"Ah! Didn't Conan say you asked me to give it to him?" Shangguan Qianxia said in puzzlement.

Uncle Maori heard this and scolded Conan who was holding his hand. Conan rolled up his classic dead fish eyes and struggled to speak: "Sister Chinatsu asked me to watch it!"

Uncle Maori slapped Conan on the butt a few times and said, "Still lying, huh?"

Watching this scene, Shangguan Qianxia turned her face away, suppressed her laughter and said, "Okay, Uncle Maori, please let Conan go. I think he admires you as a great detective so much that he wants to learn from you to solve cases."

Hearing the word "Great Detective", Uncle Maori laughed his classic laugh, threw Conan to the ground, and said, "Really? Hahahahaha."

Uncle Maori took the evidence and walked back humming a little tune, saying as he walked: "Conan, next time when I solve a case, you should watch carefully and learn it carefully, okay?"

Covering the big bump on his head, Conan responded reluctantly, then he looked at Shangguan Chinatsu angrily.

However, Shangguan Qianxia did not give him a chance to attack, and said to him: "So, do you know the criminal? I already know one of them!"

"Huh, you're talking like everyone is wrong." Conan turned his head away awkwardly.

Shangguan Qianxia pretended to be surprised and said, "Really? You are indeed the savior of the Sakura Country Police."

Hearing this, Conan subconsciously straightened his back and said with his head held high: "That's right, the criminal I have locked on is the guard with long hair, but there is no conclusive evidence. What about yours?"

"Me too, but there is another robber who we don't have any clues about. The only evidence might have been placed there intentionally by someone to mislead us."

Conan nodded and said, "Yes, the hood and gloves were too deliberate."

Soon, the case was investigated as a simple robbery.

……

At night, raindrops are falling from the sky.

The long-haired guard was walking in an alley of moderate size, holding an umbrella.

A cigarette butt was thrown out of a black car, and then the black car started up and drove to the side of the long-haired guard. The window slowly opened and the long-haired man looked over in confusion.

He saw a pitch-black gun muzzle pointed at him. He looked terrified. The man inside didn't give him time to react. He shot the long-haired man to death with a pistol with a silencer and then walked away.
