"According to Officers Matsuda and Hagiwara of the bomb disposal team, the countdown of the pet basket bomb was 5 minutes and 48 seconds left. When it was near the children's park, it suddenly stopped for more than ten seconds before continuing."

"There are two possibilities for this situation," Officer Megure continued. "First, it could be that the timer suddenly malfunctioned, or the criminal stopped it remotely for some reason."

"However, judging from the fact that the criminal specifically called and emphasized the name 'Kudo', he might be challenging the famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi because of his fame, or he might be someone who has a personal grudge against him."

Officer Shiratori shared the information he had gathered in just a few hours: "According to our investigation, the criminals in the cases solved by Kudo Shinichi are still serving their sentences in prison."

"So it must be the criminal's family or lover." Kogoro Mori guessed.

Officer Megure: "Anyway, our police are currently investigating based on the profile they drew."

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko pushed a prepared painting onto the table: "This is a painting that Huiyuan asked us to draw when we were in the restaurant..."

The child, who had not dared to interrupt the adults' conversation, finally started chattering.

"This is it, it looks exactly like the real thing!" "Great job!" "This is a painting we drew together!"

Conan saw some crude doodles on the white paper.

Sunglasses, brown hair, beard, windbreaker, he has all the necessary features.

He just searched his memory of the past case, but he had no impression of the person in the painting.

Moreover, the criminal used a voice changer to change his voice, so maybe he was someone he knew...

While Conan was thinking carefully about whether he had seen this person before, Haibara Ai, who was with a few children, whispered something to Ayumi.

Hearing her words, Ayumi's eyes lit up: "That's right! Officer Megure! I remember when that man handed the remote-controlled plane to Mitsuhiko... he smelled sweet!"

When taking a group of children to have lunch, Haibara Ai naturally couldn't just sit there and do nothing. In addition to instructing the children to draw a scribbled doodle in advance, she also asked for this clue.

"What's that smell? Is it perfume?" asked Hime Eri.

"I don't know... but it seems to be different from perfume..."

Officer Megure nodded.

"I understand. If you think of any other suspicious clues, just tell me at any time."

Several children also nodded.

At this time, Li An suddenly spoke carefully: "Based on the common gender self-identification, the possibility that the other party is male is the greatest... Then... could it be the smell of tobacco?"

"tobacco?"

Conan looked up suddenly.

Maori Kogoro immediately asked: "Kuroba, have you found any clues?"

Why does this sound so familiar?

do not care.

"It can't be called a clue..." Facing the curious looks from the police officers, detectives, lawyers and several children, Li An seriously denied this statement, "It can only be regarded as some speculations. I hope these will not affect the objective judgment of the police officers."

"What do you think."

"The point I just made should be easy to make."

In addition, judging from his voice after voice change, the natural aging of his vocal cords makes his voice very hoarse, and his age should be between 45 and 55 years old.

But Li An directly concealed the characteristics of his voice and said it in a different way: "In addition, he used a voice changer when he spoke, but his tone of speech was arrogant and condescending. People who use imperative words such as 'I let you' and 'Listen carefully' often have a certain status in society and attach more importance to themselves. They tend to be stubborn and conservative in their thinking and should be quite old."

"He is a very cautious person with careful planning, and everything he does is done with a strong purpose."

He had a very accurate grasp of the distance and time from Kudo Shinichi's residence to the Green Park and Beika Station, and obviously he had done his homework in advance.

"besides……"

Li An extremely cautiously provided the police officer with her own analysis and judgment based on the other party's few words. She spoke very slowly, and every word she uttered was carefully considered.

Analyzing a person's character based on just a few words is like walking on a tightrope. If you are not careful, you will deviate greatly.

Any deviation will cause trouble.

"the last point."

"He was somewhere observing the situation in Green Park, and was able to confirm my identity immediately when he saw me - not only did he know Kudo Shinichi, he had also seen me."

"He knows the identities of both Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kuriyasu, but he looks for Kudo Shinichi first. His plan is to lure out the snake through the bomb challenge, and he is willing to provide clues, eager to appreciate Kudo Shinichi's disillusioned state when he is unable to complete his mission of saving people as a detective--"

"However, when the challenge target changes, the change of the name is a respect for the 'opponent'. But even though he was talking to me at the time, his target was still Shinichi Kudo, so he used the name 'Kudo Shinichi's cousin' instead of Kuroba Kuriyasu's name - the possibility that he has a grudge against Shinichi Kudo is higher than the title of 'famous detective'."

Kuroba Kuriyasu has almost never given such a long analysis, unraveling the mystery layer by layer.

Such analysis caused everyone present to fall into a long silence until Li An asked the last question.

"If I were to extrapolate from my initial assumption of social status... Officer Megure, among the cases solved by Kudo Shinichi in the past, which one would have attracted the most attention from society?"

Inspector Megure came back to his senses from his long daze.

She was able to analyze so much from just a few words from the other party...

"I think it should be... the case involving Mayor Nishitama Okamoto."

Mayor Okamoto of Nishitama accidentally killed a 25-year-old office worker. In order to save his career, he tried to let his son take the blame, but his plan was seen through by Shinichi Kudo. The new town construction plan he planned for Nishitama City was rejected and reviewed.

"I remember his son is a student of electronic engineering, but..." The character he and Li An just analyzed was obviously different.

"Everything I said is just speculation and assumption. The specific truth or falsehood must of course be investigated by the police." Li An picked up the cup and took a sip of water. "Perhaps the final murderer is not who I imagined, but a completely different person from my speculation?"

Li An rarely says everything he wants to say.

The results and evidence obtained from investigations from multiple aspects will always be more reliable than her empty words.

——In most cases.

Inspector Megure: "That... you are right."

He immediately turned to the police officer next to him and called out, "White Bird."

Shiratori Renzaburo looked at Li An deeply, turned and walked out of the apartment.

"I'll go investigate right away."
