Conan: I'm teasing Conan in Mingke

Chapter 250: Eliminating the Culprit by Process of Elimination

Conan laughed dryly.

Who would have thought that the organization would appear so openly under Kurokawa's nose...

"I plan to secretly put a bug in them if I have the chance to see these two people again next time."

Conan looked at Rinya and asked for his opinion: "What do you think?"

Rin had no objections: "You can try it. You just need to make it more secretive."

After getting Rinya's affirmation, Conan became excited again. He looked at Dr. Agasa and said, "Speaking of which, there is one more thing I need to trouble you with, Doctor."

Dr. Agasa rarely showed his temper, and said arrogantly: "Hmph! Stop it! You only come to me when you have something to do! In my opinion, Master, you should find someone else!"

The resistance of the tools.

Conan blinked his eyes and said, "Are you angry because I didn't tell you that Uncle Maori's report was stolen last time?"

Didn’t Rinya just say that now?

And last month Dr. Agasa was in the United States again.

What should he say?

The arrogant Dr. Agasa didn't care about all that. He snorted and turned his head away.

Conan quickly comforted Dr. Agasa: "Please, don't be angry, Doctor, what can I do? She was right beside us at that time."

"She?" Dr. Agasa was puzzled: "Are you talking about Ai?"

Watching the two people in front of him start talking about Ai, Rin also shifted his gaze to the entrance to the basement not far away.

If you say bad things about others behind their back, they will probably hear you.

But strictly speaking, it is not a bad word. In Ai's heart, it should be considered as comforting words.

Conan asked: "By the way, where is Huibara?"

Dr. Agasa leaned close to Conan and whispered, "He is in the basement laboratory now."

Rin also jumped off the couch and headed towards the basement entrance, "Since you're with Yang, you two can chat first. I'll go downstairs and watch over you."

He could probably guess what Conan wanted the doctor to do.

Probably to investigate Vermouth.

Even though he knew that there were two guys around him who had worked in the organization before, he couldn't get any clues about the organization from them and had to investigate on his own.

Conan is so pitiful!

When Haibara Ai heard what Rin said, she hurriedly wanted to go back through the basement corridor.

It's very embarrassing to be caught eavesdropping.

However, he didn't expect that Rinya walked to the entrance so quickly, and grabbed her arm as soon as she entered the door.

He took her to a place where Conan couldn't see her, raised his index finger and made a hushing gesture.

Huiyuan Ai's eyes were half-mooned, and she lowered her voice: "You didn't know I was here a long time ago, did you?"

Lin didn't comment and pointed outside the door.

Haibara Ai had no choice but to eavesdrop on the two people outside.

Conan crossed his arms, his expression becoming more serious. "But speaking of the stolen report, the person who stole it later sent it back to the Metropolitan Police Department intact."

Dr. Agasa guessed: "Maybe they looked at it and found it useless so they returned it?"

Conan's half-moon eyes: "Please, if you have read it, why not just throw it away? Why do you have to deliberately send it back and let the police notice that you are not careful with the storage of the information."

"That makes sense."

"The only possibility is that they did this to show that we are fully aware of your situation, or..."

"Or it's a trap they set to lure someone out of the cave." A mysterious Osaka accent took over Conan's conversation.

Hattori Heiji looked at Conan: "Who are they trying to lure out now, Kudo, I think it should be you."

Conan hadn't noticed anything unusual at this point, and thought it was Rin who had returned, saying, "I think so..."

Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and said, "But there is one thing I don't understand. If this is a trap, why would they go through so much trouble?"

"That's true..." Conan agreed: "They obviously have many ways to lure me out..."

Thinking of this, Conan, who had a very slow reaction time, finally realized that the person who had been talking to him was speaking with an Osaka accent.

He looked around in surprise and pointed at Hattori Heiji: "Why are you here?! Hattori??"

He said that Rinya wouldn't call him Kudo either!

Hattori Heiji laughed twice and pointed at Dr. Agasa beside him: "Of course it was this old man who asked me to come."

Hattori Heiji patted his chest confidently, his tone full of excitement and pride: "He said that I am your good friend and I can definitely help you here."

"I just see that you are always troubled by this problem and can't figure it out."

Dr. Agasa scratched his head with a dry laugh and changed the subject: "But since the other party is making such unfounded moves, it will be difficult for us to deal with them."

"You are too naive, old man." Hattori Heiji shook his finger: "Such an important matter, if Kudo didn't have any clues, how could he come to you? He would come here, besides the investigation of the Kurosaki sister as mentioned before..."

He looked at Conan with a confident look on his face: "It means that he has grasped some clues, or has found a way to fight back, right?"

Conan twitched his lips, but Hattori really hit the point, so he could only explain helplessly: "I remember I told you that I fought with those people when I was at the Haido Municipal Hotel before."

Hattori Heiji nodded: "You said that you, the petite sister named Huiyuan, and the brother Jingxing who just went to the basement, were investigating the case of one of them, an old man named Pisco."

"Yes, in fact, I have been thinking about it since then." Conan lowered his eyes: "Why did Pisco hold the party handkerchief that should not have been in his hand when the police were recording his statement? There were a total of eight suspects isolated and interrogated by the police at that time."

"Pisco probably didn't expect that the police would find that handkerchief on him during the interrogation. In other words..."

"It was his companion." Hattori Heiji understood: "They knew that they would be interrogated by the police first, which means that the person who gave the handkerchief to Pisco is very likely among the other seven suspects being interrogated."

Conan nodded: "Except for Pease, the suspects are Nanjo Mika, Sanpei Yasuo, Tawarakata Haru, Tarumi Naoya, Mugura Naomichi, Christine Pinyard and Kurokawa."

"Excluding Kurokawa-san's suspicion, there are six people left. They are all celebrities who often appear in the media, but since that incident, only one of them announced his retirement and disappeared."

Lin, who was eavesdropping in the dark, couldn't help but think that if he had been drinking water just now, he would have sprayed the water in his mouth all over the floor.

Of the seven suspects, the biggest culprit was eliminated.

Of course, no one present could understand Rinya's emotions. Even Haibara Ai, who was eavesdropping beside him, pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the conversation outside.
