Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

As they were talking, they arrived at the door of the first practice room. Chapman looked back at everyone and said, "I remember Meizao said that the violinist and flutist among you are not here, right?"

Suzuki Sonoko nodded, "Yes, they have something to do today and can't come."

Chapman also nodded, and although he was a man who took music very seriously, he didn't say much.

"These are all violin practice rooms. I remember Lydia reserved the first one today." Chapman said as he looked into the practice room through the window that was specially left a little above the door. Then he smiled and said, "Lydia should be waiting for us. We can just go in."

Although he said this, he still knocked on the door twice before pushing it open and entering.

Just as he said, the principal violinist Lydia was not practicing at the moment. It was obvious that she knew that someone would come to visit later, so she was waiting for them.

"Hi, Lydia," Chapman greeted the girls in the room cheerfully, looking much more relaxed and lively than when he was chatting with them or on the podium.

"Hi, Chapman." Lydia waved at him happily.

Then she waved and greeted everyone following Chapman, her green eyes full of gentle smiles, "Hi, everyone, I'm Lydia, the violinist of the orchestra~"

Her Japanese sounded a little less familiar than Chapman's, but it did not prevent her from communicating with everyone.

Everyone greeted her. Akikawa Sarina, who was at the back, didn't say anything but nodded at her.

While listening to the conversation between people, Akikawa Sarana quietly observed the state of the room. It was a very ordinary music practice room. There was a violin neatly placed in an open instrument case. It looked like the violin that the violinist had just practiced with.

In another corner of the room was a piano with its lid closed, and the rest was a stand for music scores and a bench for people to sit on and practice. There was nothing else.

Akikawa Sarina turned around and looked behind her. From most angles she could clearly see through the window on the piano room door to see if anyone was passing by outside.

Akikawa Sarana, who was quietly observing the room, heard the violinist throw the topic to her who had been silent the whole time.

She turned her head to look at the people who were looking at her, "I'm sorry, I don't know much about musical instruments. Due to my health, I used to rest more often. The only instrument I know a little bit about is the piano, which I learned from my teacher in music class when I was in school. I don't know much about other instruments."

She wasn't lying. When she was young, she didn't have time to learn these things. When she was older, she learned a little piano while studying acting with Vermouth. She also learned a little appreciation. But she didn't have much talent. She could only understand what the music was expressing, and nothing more.

As for playing the piano, she could only play some simple pieces of music, and since she hadn't practiced for many years, she might not be able to play a complete piece of music now.

Akikawa Sarina deliberately had a hint of embarrassment on her face, which made the violinist Lydia, who asked about this topic, feel quite embarrassed.

The violinist Lydia and the orchestra conductor Chapman then noticed that the lady who had been following the high school students in silence was much paler than the others, and had a look of someone who had been ill for a long time.

After Suzuki Sonoko and Sera Masumi timely changed the topic back to music, Mouri Ran took a step back and looked at Akikawa Sarina with concern.

Noticing that Xiaolan was looking at her, Akikawa Sarana shook her head slightly at her, indicating that it was okay and she didn't need to worry about her. Then she signaled Xiaolan with her eyes to listen to the music theory knowledge that the people over there were discussing.

After everyone's attention was completely diverted from her, Akikawa Sarina smiled quietly in her heart.

Got you.

Although Lydia tried her best to hide her eyes when she looked at her just now, Akikawa Sarana still saw defensiveness and fear in her eyes.

The fear in the man's eyes gradually dissipated after he heard her talk about her health problems and noticed her complexion.

Although it is not ruled out that this person is wary and fearful of outsiders because of the threatening letter, Akikawa Sarana thinks there is another possibility.

That is, she knew what she had in her hand and what she needed to be on guard against, or she knew someone was chasing her.

So...Akikawa Sarina lowered her eyes, and she had to find out whether the threatening letter sent to this person was true or false.

If it is false, they will have to find a way to reduce Kogoro Mori's involvement in this case.

They didn't have a violinist, so no one stayed in the room for too long and disturbed other people's practice time.

Before leaving, Akikawa Sarana quietly left a bug in the room while no one was paying attention.

Ms. Lydia was still on guard, so she couldn't put a bug on her piano case or clothes. She decided to go back and sneak into her room.

Although, she felt that if it were her, she would definitely carry the USB flash drive with her.

Following behind everyone, Akikawa Sarana glanced at her main task interface which was motionless. Could it be that her previous guess was wrong?

Isn't part of the reason for releasing the main quest based on her subjective wishes?

She had pondered the release pattern of the main tasks for a long time and found that although these tasks were all related to the organization, they were also released based on her own wishes.

Next, everyone went straight to the goal, leaving Xiaolan as the only two pianists in the team and leaving Sera Masumi on the drum side.

Finally, Akikawa Sarina followed Suzuki Sonoko and the orchestra conductor back to the stage where they had practiced together at the beginning.

This time, Akikawa Sarana sat in the first row, watching the orchestra conductor standing next to Suzuki Sonoko, handing her a baton and teaching her how to conduct.

Akikawa Sarana supported her chin with one hand, listening to the music theory knowledge over there while chatting with Tomoko in her mind.

[I also think your guess is right, Sarina. According to scientific analysis, it should be the violinist or the orchestra manager... However, I think the other person you mentioned is also a little suspicious.]

[Hmm?] Akikawa Sarana sat up a little straighter, [Who?]

[He is the orchestra conductor who looks very different on and off the stage. Generally speaking, in the field of science, people who look like they are not the target at all are the most likely to be the one.]

You must have another reason.

Sitting in the car and monitoring the target person, Niino Natsuho realized that her little trick was seen through by the host. She scratched her head and said, "The main purpose is to give you a three-choice science choice, Sarina. The organization's goal this time is to choose one from three, so you should also choose one from three to make it symmetrical. 】
