Maori Detective Agency.

"Peng!"

A gunshot was heard in the toilet.

Bourbon kicked the door open and Conan acted like a puppy.

Something "whoosh" passed under his feet, and a pungent smell of blood hit his heart, making him feel a little nauseous.

A man was sitting on the toilet seat, holding a gun in both hands, his head leaning against the wall, and blood staining the back.

He had a terrified expression, facing the ceiling, his eyes wide open, his mouth wide open, and dried blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.

At his feet, there was a woman with her mouth sealed with tape and her body tied up with ropes, unable to move.

She tried her best to make a sound, her body struggled, and her tears dripped on the floor.

"Um...uh..."

This time, the Grim Reaper finally brought the case home!!!

The legendary master sorcerer, Conan.

Several police cars were parked on the roadside below the office.

As expected, the visit.

It must be those two familiar men again.

Conan's eldest apprentice, Takagi.

My younger brother, Jinchūriki, Megure.

"That's great, Maori brother."

"You are really gradually refreshing my understanding of you."

"You finally brought your cursed power to the office..."

Maori touched his head and smiled awkwardly, glancing at Conan at the side: "I feel more like it's because of this guy."

Takagi put his coat on the woman, motioned for her to sit on the sofa, and put the small notebook in Megure's palm.

Xiaolan took the steaming tea and placed it on the coffee table.

"It's okay, it's okay, Ms. Jiaqi."

"Just tell the police what you know later."

Xiaolan patted her back gently and whispered to comfort her frightened heart.

"Ahem!" Megure cleared his throat.

"So, Miss Jiaqi."

Inspector Megure put one hand in his pocket, holding up a small notebook, and spoke earnestly.

"You came here to ask Brother Maori to investigate the coin locker matter."

“Then you meet a man who calls himself the Maori assistant.”

"He was responsible for receiving you, but he ended up using a stun gun to knock you out."

"And then when you woke up, you were tied up in the toilet."

"Yes....Yes! In order to prevent me from escaping....he, he also stole my boots and even took away the laces."

Is this guy trying to take your bibimbap?

Maori looked at Ms. Jiaqi, who still had her charm.

But Jiaqi is indeed quite pretty.

The corners of her eyes are pointed inward, giving her a fox-like look. She is very charming and a true beauty.

Ms. Jiaqi wiped her tears with the back of her hand and expressed excitedly that all the grievances and mixed feelings in her heart were released at this moment.

"Then the kidnappers heard Brother Maori and his group coming back from the cafe."

"Fearing that the truth would be exposed, he put the gun to his mouth and committed suicide."

"But why did he lock you in the toilet?"

"He...he asked me which locker the key belonged to, and said...he would kill me if I didn't tell him. I was really...so scared."

Ms. Jiaqi leaned on Xiaolan's shoulder and sobbed.

Everyone lowered their heads silently, expressing their sympathy for her.

Except Conan.

"Officer Megure."

Takagi's hair was messy as if it had been blown up by a fart. He covered his mouth with his hand, leaned close to Megure's ear, and whispered.

"There was almost no gunpowder residue detected on the woman's clothes, which means that the man committed suicide."

"Very good! Brother Takagi!"

"Go find that coin locker first."

"Find out more about this man's intentions!"

"Yes!!"

Conan, however, was looking at Ms. Jiaqi in front of him thoughtfully.

Bourbon put his fist to his chin and thought.

Why did he bring Ms. Jiaqi to this place?

I have a gun in my hand, so I can force her to leave the office and then interrogate her.

But why did they have to stun him with an electric shock gun and then kidnap him, as if they were deliberately keeping him there for a while?

Regarding this gun, we have to let our colleagues in the public security department investigate.

The neon lights are just too messy.

"Oh yeah... he seems very anxious! He said... if he can't find a locker, it will be troublesome..."

"Ms. Jiaqi, are you sure you don't know him?"

"I don't know him! I really don't know him!!"

"Miss Jiaqi, that key is your brother's relic, right?" Bourbon asked gently, wiping his lips with his thumb.

"Um...."

"That man wanted the key so much, could it be that he knew your brother?"

"I don't know...I barely know any of my brother's friends...I haven't met them very often."

"That Ms. Jiaqi." Bourbon covered his face with his hands, leaned forward and asked in a low voice.

"Can you please tell me the cause of your brother's death?"

Seeing that Jiaqi didn't respond, Bourbon raised his tone slightly.

Inquiring: "Ms. Jiaqi, what was the cause of your brother's death?"

"what!?"

"Ah, the cause of death?"

Jiaqi paused and said, "It was...an accident four days ago."

Conan looked at Ms. Jiaqi thoughtfully.

It seems that I already have the answer in my heart.

"Wait...wait a minute, let me show you my brother."

Jiaqi turned on her cell phone and saw the standby screen showing a picture of her and her brother.

My sister is pretty and delicate, and my brother also looks like a human being.

"Speaking of cell phones."

Inspector Megure took out a plastic bag from his hand, which contained a mobile phone.

"The cell phone of the man who committed suicide was very strange."

Strange? Everyone came over.

"Except pretending to be Ms. Jiaqi, it was sent to Brother Maoli."

"I would like to change the meeting place."

“There is no other record of emails.”

"Also, the call logs and address book are blank."

Officer Megure held the phone in his hand and examined it carefully.

“This phone is a bit old.”

There are no scratches on the phone. It seems that the buyer bought it on a cheap and outdated basis.

"That... that man's subsequent emails and messages were all sent from my phone."

"Officer, I think the change and wallet in his pocket are also of concern."

Bourbon added, resting his head on his arms.

"The change in his pocket, that is, the coins, added up to a total of 5,000 yen."

"So...that much? Won't it sink?" Xiaolan looked confused.

"There are two 10,000 yen bills, five 5,000 yen bills, and four 1,000 yen bills."

“It’s a bit strange…”

"Inspector Megure! The contents of the deceased's pocket have been placed on the table!"

"Thank you." Megure thanked him while holding the brim of his hat.

"Taser", "Cigarettes", "Lighter", "The key was taken by Takagi"

"By the way, Ms. Jiaqi."

"I remember two towels dropped at the feet of the body."

"One of them is wet. Do you know why?"

Bourbon put his hands in his pockets and observed her expression.

"I don't know... I was so scared... I didn't look up..."

"And under that towel are your boots,"

"Why is there a knot at the front of the boot laces?"

"That....that was my habit when I was a kid."

"My brother taught me that when you wash and dry canvas shoes, you should tie the shoelaces like that so that it is convenient to hang them up to dry."

"But my brother...he is no longer alive."

Ms. Jiaqi couldn't help but burst into tears, as the good times she had with her brother kept coming to her mind.

"Inspector Megure... Look, how about we do it tomorrow..."

Maori is very proficient in the ways of the world.

He pulled his moustache and signaled him with his eyes.

Megure looked down at his watch and it was time to get off work.

And Conan isn't very good either. Usually at this time, he would have already started crying.

"Then let's go to the police station tomorrow to take statements."

"Write down your contact information and address."

"If possible, show me something that can verify your identity."

When the woman heard that she didn't have to give a statement, she stopped crying.

His expression calmed down, he moved the paper in front of him, held the pen and started writing.

"I just graduated from college and haven't found a job yet."

"So.....no business card."

"But we do have a social security card at home."

"Then bring it over tomorrow."

"Miss Jiaqi, if you want to go home, why don't you let me take you there."

Bourbon dangled his car keys between his fingers, smiling.

"My car is parked downstairs. Maybe the man's accomplices are ambushing you near your house."

"Okay... okay."

"Hey...I just realized it."

"Why are you here?"

Megure stared at Bourbon with dead fish eyes.

"Brother Megure, you don't know this."

"He is my eldest disciple!"

Maori said proudly, patting Megure's shoulder.

"The second disciple is not the one called Yi Yu..."

"clever!!"

"Hey... you have another detective by your side."

Megure lowered his head, held the brim of his hat and shook his head helplessly.

"Again? Who else?" Bourbon asked hurriedly.

"She's a high school female detective who's been hanging out with Maori a lot lately."

"Oh? A young high school female detective."

Bourbon gave an intriguing smile.

I didn't expect it to happen in the blink of an eye.
