Conan Moslin
Chapter 231 The Duke of Darkness (11) Falls from the Building
Emerald Bar.
Kogoro Mouri was sleeping unconscious on the bar table, with the wine glass still in his hand.
Kamijou Hideko looked at the sleeping detective, and then saw Kurian and others get up and walk out. Then she tentatively fumbled in the detective's shirt pocket and quickly took out a notebook.
She glanced in the direction where Li An left and went straight into the bathroom.
Open the notes.
The pages of the notebook that had been used for recording were slightly wrinkled, but the unused parts were flat as new, so I quickly turned to the dividing line.
There are two strings of numbers written on this page, marking the two most recently purchased lottery tickets and the draw time.
Obviously not.
Turning the page, at first glance, you will see all kinds of numbers and words written together in a mess, which is dizzying.
She examined it carefully, but found that it was filled with the latest horse lottery prize redemption, concert dates, TV channel broadcast times and more lottery numbers, all useless information.
There is not a single piece of content related to the commission.
There was only one page with a folded corner, on which were written 10.11 and a few English letters "ziguba", but this had nothing to do with the news about the Duke of Darkness that she was looking for.
Detective's notes...are they all like this?
It seems that Detective Maori did not record his clues...
Kamijou Hideko closed her notes and just as she came out of the bathroom, she met Kuriyasu's eyes.
She took a deep breath.
...was discovered.
……
Kuroiwa Reiko and Murasawa Shuichi chatted with Li An for a while, and because they had travel plans the next day, they said goodbye to Li An at around 9:40 and went back to their room to pack up.
They told their room number before leaving, and they stayed in Room 2005.
Li An got up and walked the two out of the bar. When she came back, she patted Maori Kogoro's shoulder gently and found that he had no intention of waking up.
The drinks on Mr. Maori's table didn't seem to have been touched much, as the color of the drinks had faded a lot because the ice had melted.
He reeked of alcohol and was sleeping soundly, barely snoring.
Ms. Kamijou Hideko came out of the bathroom, and Kurian looked up at her silently.
Even through the sunglasses, the guilt in the other person's eyes was about to overflow.
Li An: ...
She waved to Miss Hideko, and when she sat back down, she sat down next to her, propping her chin up and asked, "Ms. Kamijou, can you explain?"
"Ms. Kuroba, I thought you were going to leave together."
"I came to ask Mr. Maori when he will be back." Li An glanced at the back of Mr. Maori's head, "Miss Kamijou seems to have taken something?"
Mr. Mori's notebook was like a hot potato in Kamijou Hideko's hand.
But she still tried to answer calmly: "Ms. Kuroba, what are you talking about?"
"You don't want to talk about it...then forget it." Li An didn't seem to want to get into the details. He turned around and waved to the bartender, "Mr. Bartender, may I ask what kind of drink this gentleman ordered? It looks very nice."
"Amber Dream."
Li An repeated in a low voice.
“以金酒20毫升、甜味美思20毫升、修道院绿酒20毫升、橙味苦酒1大滴调配,酒精度数在42°左右。”酒保先生恭敬地回答,“女士也可以尝试。”
"No, not today." Li An waved his hand to refuse, and then asked with a slow smile, "If a gentleman who often drinks only drinks two glasses of beer and half a glass of 'Amber Dream'..."
Would he pass out drunk at the bar?
"Ms. Kuroba!" Kamijou Hideko held her forehead and interrupted her unfinished words, saying earnestly, "... Let's go out for a walk."
Under the sight of Kuriyasu and the bartender, Kamijou Hideko stuffed Mr. Mori's notebook into his hands.
Li An gave a few instructions to the waiter beside him, and followed her out the door.
It's 9:48 now.
……
At some point in time, Mao Lilan stood at the door of the Emerald Bar with a child.
Conan, full of confidence, rushed in first, but was quickly kicked out by a waiter at the door.
"Conan, you are too anxious..." Ran Mouri looked at him helplessly.
"Are you looking for someone?"
The waiter who was carrying Conan put the child on the ground, patted the dust off his hands, and then looked at Mao Lilan, who was a little older but obviously still a student, and asked familiarly: "Who are you looking for? What are the characteristics?"
In most cases, minors are not allowed into bars, and those who are allowed are not allowed to purchase alcoholic beverages.
This room in front of me is obviously not allowed to enter under normal circumstances.
...It's another matter for people like Li An who gave false evidence.
Less than 5 minutes after Mao Lilan described the characteristics, the waiter came out again, followed by another waiter.
During the brief conversation, the two received a piece of news.
Kogoro Mouri died in his sleep in the bar.
……
At 9:53, Kurian and Kamijou Hideko walked out of the hotel door and sent a message to Conan.
Even though Xiaolan's phone is out of battery, Conan still receives messages.
Outside the Princess Hotel, an iron fence was erected on the high wall. Many bronze sculptures were placed around the building, with wings on their backs and swords and shields raised, all in a protective posture.
"Ms. Kamijou seems to be very eager to find the Dark Duke's program, and is willing to let Mr. Mori... Is there any reason?"
Kuriyasu and Hideko walked through the flower beds and took a stroll within the hotel walls.
She didn't explain it clearly, but Kamijou Hideko understood that she knew about him drugging her.
"...I want to get that virus, just to make a 'vaccine' to prevent it."
"is it?"
The strong wind blowing through the hall from downstairs made Li An squint his eyes unconsciously.
She raised her hand to block the wind, tilted her head and asked her, "Miss Kamijou, do you know much about this computer virus?"
"I heard it from Dr. Agasa, so I'm not familiar with this."
"Everyone who is familiar with computers knows it." Kamijou Hideko briefly explained its principle, and then said very firmly, "The damage it causes is too great. There must be a solution."
"It should be difficult to develop a vaccine for that virus, right? You just said that many programmers can't solve it."
"I run a computer company and have great employees." She seemed very confident about this.
Before I knew it, I mentioned this news: "One of the employees, she used to work at Sindorah."
"Sindora...is that the famous IT company?"
"That's right. With her ability, she will definitely be able to complete the analysis of this virus!"
Although it is impossible to tell whether it is true or false, it is a pleasant surprise to find someone who is suspected to have the ability to solve the Dark Duke virus...
There was a gleam in Li An's eyes, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.
With the light in her eyes obscured by the strong wind, her tone was gentle but sincere.
"Then... I wish you all the best."
The time was now 10 o'clock.
On the other side of the building.
"what is that?"
Objects fell from high altitude and the bronze sculpture was stained with blood.
The horse raised its hooves and the sword pointed upwards.
The princess's knight executed the ugly black-clad thief—
But there was a scream of surprise.
