The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"Click——"

When the three high school students gathered at Judy's door, the sound of a key turning came from the apartment door behind them, and soon, the door behind them opened.

The three guys who had just been discussing how to enter someone else's home to investigate quickly stopped talking and looked in the direction of the open door together.

Almost as soon as the door was opened, a strong smell of alcohol rushed down the corridor. It was obvious that the residents or guests inside not only drank a lot of wine, but also spent a lot of time talking and drinking for a long time. The gas is so exaggerated that it can make people pick up the flavor.

Tangze, who was overly familiar with the smell, covered his nose reflexively and took a step back.

Based on his experience, if the person walking out is not drunk enough, there is a high probability that he is on the verge of vomiting. Who knows, the sour smell will fill the corridor.

Two men in standard corporate suits staggered out, one supporting the other.

The woman who followed them and opened the door for them had an apologetic smile on her face. As she followed them out, she said an honorific: "I'm really sorry. It's all because of him that it caused such unpleasantness... It's really Yes, this was originally a happy and good thing."

"It doesn't matter. Senior Takai is like this. Every time he drinks too much, he doesn't speak very well..." The man in charge of helping people had a round face and struggled to help another person who was almost hanging on him. He was still talking politely.

"Isn't that nice? I see, Tao Jing just showed his true nature after getting drunk and stopped pretending at all, right?" The square-faced man he was supporting let out a disdainful sneer, mumbling indistinctly.

"Oh, Kawakami-senpai, it's really not good to drink wine like yours..."

"It's so noisy!"

Three obviously older working people were talking and walking towards the elevator.

The smell of alcohol in the group gradually faded away, and Tang Ze put down his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since he stopped drinking, he now smells the complex and strange smell of these people after being digested by the human body, and he will think of many bad moments when he woke up in a mess.

The stimulation of the sense of smell coupled with these uncomfortable memories made him really afraid to avoid it.

Thinking of the dead person he would most likely meet today, Tang Ze shook his head and turned to Judy's door again indifferently.

Another revenge that is not worthy of attention... The lives of the guys in Yoneka Town are too ups and downs.

Forget it, forget it, there's nothing he needs to do.

Considering the cause of death of the deceased, this case has some safety educational significance on the harmful effects of drinking alcohol on health, which can be considered a credit.

"How do you feel? You seem to hate people who drink, Karasawa." Conan, who noticed the behavior of his companions more than the neighbors passing by, looked at Karasawa and sighed, "I saw that when you reported Uncle Mouri, No effort was spared.”

"Not really." Tangze shook his head and retorted seriously, "I just feel that adults who try to escape from reality with the help of the illusory sense of separation brought by alcohol are completely beyond their control, and they are full of ugliness, which is very... It’s just inferior.”

It's very inferior, very ridiculous, even I will realize that at this moment I am immersed in false senses and numb myself.

He never wanted to be in this situation again, which was one of the reasons why he decided to quit drinking.

Facing the curious and slightly confused expressions of his two friends, Tangze thought about his past that had nothing to do with alcoholism in his life, and said decisively: "I'm sorry, am I overreacting? Mainly, on the day of my accident, I just bumped into such a drunken, foul-mouthed rotten person... It's really embarrassing to be drunk like this."

"Oh, so..." The two people were stunned at first, and then silently exchanged glances.

Sure enough, what triggered Tang Ze's emotional changes was his psychological shadow about this matter.

He must work harder and resolve this burden on his shoulders as soon as possible.

Yes, don’t lose to me...!

This is what I should say.

The two detectives, who had both accepted the commission from the client, turned back, their fighting spirit rising in their hearts.

"Huh?" Tang Ze, who didn't understand what they were trying to do for no apparent reason, looked back and forth in confusion.

"It's okay. However, it's been a long time. It's so slow, Mr. Judy." Conan looked down at his watch and changed the subject.

"Yes, as for the apartment, is it that big?" Hattori Heiji also lowered his head and looked at his watch, "How long do we have to wait."

"After all, we went directly to the lady's home without saying hello. Since we have no plans to go out or entertain guests, if someone suddenly comes to visit, we must still spend time taking care of it, right?" Tang Ze nodded understandingly.

As soon as he said this, the two people's eyes turned to Tang Ze again.

"That makes sense. You, do you often visit women's homes?" Conan, who deeply felt that practice brings true knowledge, couldn't help but ask.

"...I feel like you are very knowledgeable for some reason." Hattori Heiji murmured, "Didn't you say that you have never been in love?"

"Hey, you two are the ones who have childhood sweethearts. Haven't you ever observed the living conditions of girls? Where is the detective's observation ability?" Tang Ze rolled his eyes, "They stay at home and need to go out, spending money The energy is incomparable. What’s more, this is a place in Japan where junior high school students have to learn how to put on makeup. So I say, there is a reason why some people are still single after being with their childhood sweetheart for more than ten years."

The two boys scratched their heads each, with still confused expressions on their faces.

Is it possible? Is it because I have seen He Xiaolan/He Ye growing up and are used to it...

"Want to make a bet?" Tang Ze looked at the expressions of these two straight men, raised his eyebrows, and said teasingly.

Having been cheated once by Karasawa's bet, Hattori Heiji immediately became alert: "You don't have a good heart when you talk like that, so I won't make a bet with you."

Tsk, you’ve become smarter, it’s no longer fun.

Tang Ze regretfully suppressed his desire to bet on the club's death, raised his hand and waved to the open door behind them: "Good afternoon, Teacher Judy. Sorry to bother you."

The two people who were still chatting with Tang Ze immediately turned around and blushed.

"Hi! I've been waiting for a long time, everyone!" The heat was steaming from her body, and her fair skin was glowing with a healthy reddish color. Judy, wearing a bathrobe, twirled her damp hair and stood at the door with a smile. Before, "I happened to be taking a shower. I'm so sorry."

"No, it's okay..." Hattori Heiji, who didn't know where to turn his eyes, quickly shook his head.

"Remember to bring me a gift when you go out, OMG, that's so thoughtful, Tang Ze." Judy smiled and took the packaging box from Tang Ze's hand, and gave up her seat with a smile, "Come in first."

Tang Ze walked in, changed into slippers, looked at the apartment, which was decorated in a simple style and not cheap at first glance, and smiled knowingly.

The detectives, who had other goals in mind, instinctively began to scan the surrounding environment as soon as they stepped into the entrance hall.

The countertop decorated with vases and spotlights, and the integrated top cabinet make the entire entrance look simple and orderly. At a glance, you can see the spacious living room with sunken design.

The modern decoration is a bit too simple. I don't know if it's because of the diligent cleaning or because I just moved in so recently that I can't see anything suspicious.

After scanning around, the two people's eyes were locked on the half-open bathroom door almost at the same time.

The lights in the bathroom were turned on fully, and warm yellow light shone on the floor of the entrance hall, and some moist heat was still pouring out from the open door.

She meant that she was taking a shower just now, right...

"Um, Teacher Judy, can you borrow the bathroom..." Conan, who saw Judy walking in to welcome Tangze, asked loudly as he seized the opportunity.

"Oh, me too! Sorry, I've been holding it in for a while..." Hattori Heiji, who understood and understood, also echoed, while winking in Karasawa's direction.

We have to go to the bathroom to check the situation and try to delay as much time as possible, Karasawa!

Come on, with your communication skills, there will be no problem!

"Oh, of course, it's right in that door." Judy wiped her hair with the towel around her neck and did not express any objection.

"Thank you, thank you!" Conan smiled gratefully, followed Hattori Heiji, ducked into the bathroom, and closed the door.

As soon as the door was closed, the two of them made slight eye contact without saying a word. They immediately divided the work clearly and started the search as if they were inspecting the crime scene.

Pull back the shower curtain, check the sink, look at the sewer entrance, cupboards, toilet paper bins, and even the toilet tank...

The detectives who had done a lot of this kind of work were already skilled workers, and they launched a carpet search almost without hesitation, trying to find some clues.

Since there is really heat and there is indeed a doorbell intercom in the bathroom, she must have really been in the bathroom before.

Can she find anything that may hint at her identity, or suspicious disguise props...

Even if you are a disguiser, you can't always disguise yourself while taking a shower, right?

The more than 20 minutes of time difference between opening the door might be due to their sudden visit and she was urgently completing the disguise again...

The two skilled detectives were very agile and did not make any strange noises.

But outside the bathroom, Tang Ze and Judy, standing in the living room, exchanged a tacit look.

"Although I know that the gift must be really prepared for me, but you didn't mean to come here today, right?" Judy adjusted her glasses and looked at Tang Ze teasingly, "Why, the two little detectives are interested in me?" What are you interested in?"

Regarding the game console that Tang Ze brought, it should really be a gift for her. She would not doubt that Tang Ze just found an excuse to deal with her.

Because there is also a sticker on the outer box of the game console that comes with a game package. This is the game that I mentioned not long ago that I want to play but the arcade version has not yet been released.

He is good at building relationships, is thoughtful and careful, and can successfully break into a community in a short time, no matter what kind of crowd or atmosphere - from this perspective, he is really a natural lurker. Maybe.

However, she wouldn't think that Tang Ze was being too deliberate. After all, who wouldn't like such a considerate friend?

"It's not just you, it's even me. I don't know whether to praise him for his sharpness or to say that he likes to cause trouble for others." Tangze also laughed, "I can't help it. Who makes you the same as Belmod?" , what about the Americans who are all blond? It is indeed a very smart strategy to start from your own side."

"Humph, it's such an honor." Judy touched the glasses on her face, raised the corners of her mouth, turned and walked to her room, "I'm going to change clothes first. It's not good to entertain guests so casually. I'll leave this to you first. , please don’t make things too messy for me.”

"Because it's troublesome to clean?" Tang Ze looked at her back and asked with a smile.

"Because it's hard to reimburse the money for housekeeping." Judy waved her hand and closed the bedroom door.

Sure enough, no matter where the expatriates are, they are all finance experts and reimbursement immortals.

Tangze, who had regained his psychological balance, shrugged and began to unpack the things in his hands, rummaging for wires and installing them on the TV.

This kind of console needs a big TV to play well.

Gee, this must be 100 inches, your FBI is really dirty.

"They all seem to be everyday cosmetics, there are no special types." After checking the last cabinet, Hattori Heiji closed the cabinet door and concluded, "But do you need any special cosmetics for disguise?"

"Well... it should be necessary." Conan thought for a moment about the boxes of makeup that Joker had brought home, and said uncertainly, "However, it cannot be ruled out that the basic characteristics are similar, so she only needs to bring It’s possible that something like a mask would be enough to complete the cross-dressing needs.”

"Mask, do you really need a mask to disguise yourself?" Hattori Heiji, who heard this news for the first time, became curious.

"Well, anyway, that's what the guy who can disguise told me...my mother often does this too." Conan twirled a piece of long blond hair from the sewer outlet, rubbed it, and replied.

"Wouldn't that be unnatural?" Hattori Heiji, who had never seen a girl put on makeup before, asked hesitantly.

"Probably not. Anyway, I didn't notice much when my mother was in disguise..." Thinking of his own experience of being "kidnapped", Conan clicked his tongue.

"I'm afraid you two can't even tell whether a girl is wearing makeup, so don't think about it."

While they were quickly restoring things, Tang Ze's voice came from the door.

"Hey, how did you open the door and come in?" Conan turned around and looked at Tang Ze who was leaning against the door in shock.

When they first entered, the door was indeed locked, right?

"I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with the door lock. It opened as soon as I turned it." Tangze easily opened the door lock with a paper clip and said calmly, "Come out quickly. Teacher Judy is going to change clothes." Put on makeup. You can go look elsewhere."

"Oh, so..." Conan closed the paper box again and glanced at Tang Ze in confusion.

With Karasawa's ability to read the air, he probably wouldn't call the door for no reason.

"Let's go out. I really need to use the bathroom." Tang Ze narrowed his eyes and smiled, and reminded him in a friendly manner, "If you don't want to go to the bathroom, please go out first, okay?"

"oh oh……"

The two detectives who didn't find anything special glanced at the door lock in confusion. Without doubting that he was there, they quickly walked out, each turned in a different direction, and quickly walked towards the storage location that they had confirmed when they entered the door.

This apartment has a hidden storage plan. If they want to check them one by one, they have to move quickly.

Tang Ze watched the two evidence dogs rushing to the next destination and shook his head.

They wouldn't find much, and it was unlikely that Judy would leave many traces here.

If in the original plot, it was more or less possible for Judy to keep her own investigation information in her residence, due to the cover of Akai Shuichi's new identity, they would have a more formal base for their activities. This kind of important clue , it is certainly impossible to leave it in the hands of an individual.

But having said that...

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Ze walked into the bathroom, closed the door, and reached out to touch the mirror in front of the sink.

Let me see if there are some small photos here that may trigger changes in the plot...

The mirror that was fixed to the wall with screws slid slightly after Tang Ze's skillful and tentative moves.

"It's really hidden here...in an inexplicable place, inexplicably careful." Senior intelligence worker Tang Ze shook his head helplessly and reached out to remove the glass from the mirror.

Although he will also have a lot of information hiding locations, and he will update them regularly, always paying attention to whether anyone has touched them... But that is under the premise that they are under surveillance and the location is not safe.

This is not about exchanging information with the contact, where is the inexplicable sense of ritual...

Tangze complained in his mind, but still looked at the tiles exposed behind the mirror.

This time, it may be due to the progress of the plot, or as Karasawa guessed, the more important information has been summarized in Akai Shuichi's shop, but there is nothing related to Conan, Haibara Ai and others. Photos taken.

replaced by……

Tomaki Ainde, Karasawa, Toru Amuro, and about a dozen Akai Shuichi.

Good guy, I just call him good guy.

No, I can still understand why you took the photo and hid it here, Tomaki Shinde. After all, it is a genuine Belmod now, and it is reasonable that you need to pay attention to his movements.

But why are you filming Toru Amuro and me?

Why, because I pressed fast forward, the Belmode three-choice is not exciting enough. Are you going to do the bourbon three-choice, Kumel three-choice or something in advance?

There are also these piles of photos of his eldest cousin...

Those who know can confirm that this is a candid photo, but those who don’t know may not think that this is some celebrity photographer taking street photos.

Good guy, the composition of each of these pictures is exquisite, the lighting is excellent, and the photos are so cool...

Even Iwai Munehisa is in his form, and he's very handsome. Why, because this time his eldest cousin was lurking until a few months ago and was exposed. You two haven't had the chance to renew your relationship, so you can't help but feel the urge in your heart, right? ?

The speechless Tang Ze first raised his hand to take a picture of the incriminating evidence, thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but start thinking about it.

Do you think if Mao Lilan saw this scene this time, what kind of psychological activity would he have? It’s over, and I’m starting to look forward to it.

Oh yes, in that case...

Tangze let out a malicious hey, picked up the eyeliner from the sink, and reached for the photo.

Then let him do a little decorative work...
