The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"A high school student with a Kansai accent? I've never seen one before."

"I've been at home today and haven't met any strangers."

"I've never been to Osaka with a Kansai accent. By the way, this boy looks a bit familiar..."

Kudo Shinichi covered his face and almost ran away from the door of the last house.

There was something wrong with the look in the eyes of the housewife and aunt, and he suspected that if he ran slower, he would be caught and taken advantage of by the groupies who were suspected of being detectives.

The knowledge that housewives with money and leisure were the main force of fanatical star chasers began to seem credible to him.

"Huh... my last name is Ito." After confirming that there was no movement behind him, Kudo Shinichi fanned his face with his hand, "This is a very common surname. We searched 5 families, but there was no news..."

"I just said it was too early. It is convenient for the police to come to this kind of thing." Mao Lilan pressed his knees and lowered his head to confirm the list in his hand. Looking at it, he couldn't help but wonder, "The list Amuro found first was very detailed. Yes. Is it because you’ve been a detective for a while and you’re familiar with the police?”

Her father was a policeman before he became a detective, and even many police officers in charge of related cases at the Metropolitan Police Department worked with him.

But when it comes to finding people, Mouri Kogoro mainly relies on his hard-working legs and door-to-door visits with a smiling face, which is similar to their current situation today.

This makes it appear that the address in her hand is clear, clearly marked, and exaggerated to the point that it is accompanied by a printed copy of the road map, which is particularly unique.

Because he is not a criminal policeman, he is a public security policeman.

His eyes flickered back and forth on several landmarks, and Tangze pressed his lips as he tried to find the target location.

How should I put it? It was really hard to hold back after hearing Maori Ran say to Toru Amuro that the detective was more important than the police.

Toru Amuro's eyebrows twitched, but his strong qualities as an undercover agent prevented him from showing anything strange.

Forget it, this is the daughter of a famous detective. By the way, she is also the childhood sweetheart of another famous detective. She doesn’t like the police, so...

No, what on earth is going on at the police academy? Are even policemen with professional backgrounds so unsettling to the public? !

He went back and designated a few words to ridicule the guys at the Metropolitan Police Department, and by the way, he checked again on the recent training status of the members of Team Zero...

"Yes, after working as a detective for a long time, you will naturally become familiar with the police officers in the jurisdiction." Holding the documents that his subordinates were rushing to produce at high speed, Amuro Toru replied without changing his expression, "Isn't this how Mr. Detective Mori handles cases? ?”

"How could it be? If it were so easy, many police officers would consider changing their careers to become detectives. My father handles ordinary commissions, such as finding people, cats and dogs, emotional questions, etc. He would investigate them all by himself. "Mao Lilan smiled helplessly, "You seem to have more experience than my father."

"Maybe he has been specialized in handling murder cases for a long time, and he is mainly familiar with criminal police officers, and he is not so familiar with the police officers in the area." Amuro Toru bent his eyes and smiled brightly. It was impossible to tell that he was talking nonsense.

Of course it's nonsense. The police in the jurisdiction still deal with various public security issues. Being a police officer is not just a corner job. Except for the police, who has nothing to do and likes to engage in this kind of census-taking business...

Tangze cursed in his heart, and the group walked to another Ito door.

"Why are you asking about this? Are you the police?" This time, the uncle who opened the door was obviously more wary than the previous ones.

"We just want to find..." Mao Lilan accompanied her with a smile, and was about to explain her purpose in a nice voice.

Toru Amuro's decisive voice directly interrupted her: "Yes, police. Please cooperate in finding the missing minor."

"Oh, oh..." Seeing that Toru Amuro not only said that, but even took out the ID with the police badge in a decent manner, the uncle's face brightened a little, "Okay, two people did knock on the door in the afternoon, they should be looking for people with the same surname. They came to the wrong door."

"Well, do you still have an impression of the direction they last left?" Opening the police manual quickly, Toru Amuro took note of it in a serious manner.

"Yes, let's go to the intersection over there. Yes, in that direction."

"Sorry, please confirm. Are they a dark-skinned boy and a thin girl?"

"Yes, that's them."

"Do you remember what time we met?"

"Well, probably around 2 p.m...."

After completing the investigation and questioning in a decent manner, Toru Amuro said a few excuses to the uncle who opened the door, such as "the case is still under investigation" and "plainclothes operation". He easily made the other party promise not to publicize the matter, and then calmly spoke Turn around and leave.

"...That was that just now?!" Mao Lilan pointed to the door behind him, and then pointed to the ID that Amuro Toru casually put back in his pocket, dumbfounded.

"It's not a real ID." Toru Amuro bent his eyes again, his smile still so bright and cheerful, "Fake ID."

"This, this is too..." The two facts that Hattori Heiji's disappearance was indeed special and that Amuro Toru pretended to be a public official were fighting in his mind. Kudo Shinichi held his head, his expression blank.

"An illegal trick. It really works, doesn't it?" Toru Amuro snapped his fingers.

Kudo Shinichi suddenly felt a sense of sight from him like Goro Akechi: "..."

Tang Ze put his fist to his lips and swallowed down the burst of laughter.

How to describe Tangze's feelings...

Analysis of the joke: There was not a single lie in what Toru Amuro just said.

Is he a policeman? Of course he is. A police officer from the National Police Agency, a professional background officer, and under the age of 30, there is no one more policeman than him in the police force.

Is the evidence in his hand false? It was indeed the case, and considering his identity, Team Zero helped him create a false certificate.

——This seems to be called official transfer, right?

Tohru Amuro has always had this set of certificates, and they are fair and square. They still use the 2-inch photo of himself when he first joined the company, but the name is "Toru Amuro" instead of his real name.

Since Kaitou Kidd can consider that he may need to prepare some police uniforms to blend into the action team for the sake of demand during the operation, it is very reasonable for an intelligence officer with profound needs to create a set of false evidence, right? ?

By the way, Tang Ze does not deny that he contributed to this bad idea.

After all, it’s so funny to see Toru Amuro calling himself a fake police officer, and the more you understand his identity, the funnier it gets.

"Okay, let's eliminate them according to the direction, and the scope has been narrowed down to two households." Smiling at the two high school students who were shocked by the dirty world of adults, Toru Amuro brought the topic back to the focus, "Hurry up, we should be able to In time for dinner.”

————

"Is one of the two children with a Kansai accent very dark-skinned?" The woman holding the cat pondered for a moment, then shook her head in denial, "They didn't come to my house."

Hearing the woman's denial, Kudo Shinichi frowned slightly.

However, it doesn't make sense that this is the last family to be suspected.

Hattori Heiji, as a voluntary labor detective with a wider scope of work than him, has done no fewer interviews than Kogoro Mori.

The possibility that he would be so mistaken that he couldn't recognize the direction was slim.

He carefully looked at the woman in front of him, comparing it with the previous house that opened the door.

She has a rich figure and face, and the clothes she wears are low-key but high-quality formal clothes;

The Siamese cat in my arms is sleek and smooth, and the hair on its body and even the shape of its ears have been carefully trimmed.

He is not short of money and has a bit of intellectual temperament. Compared with the man who opened the door of a house who refused to cooperate and looked very bored, he seems to be more credible.

Do you want to go back to the previous place and check it out again? I always feel that there is still something worth observing.

Constantly weighing in his mind, Kudo Shinichi withdrew his appraising gaze. Just as he was about to thank and say goodbye, Mao Lilan let out a surprised cry.

"Are you lawyer Misari Ito?"

"Ah? Do you know me?" The woman was surprised, "Have you seen me before?"

"My mother is also a lawyer, and I heard her talk about you." After confirming the identity of the other party, Mao Lilan showed her face, "She said that you never consider income and interests when taking cases. You are a public welfare lawyer with a sense of social responsibility."

"It's really an exaggeration, but thank you for your mother's compliment." The woman raised her hand and touched the lawyer badge that was slightly blocked by the collar, her brows relaxed.

Mao Lilan's praise was obviously very helpful to her.

Seizing the opportunity, Kudo Shinichi spoke again: "We are looking for a nearby family named Ito. Do you know any suspicious residents nearby?"

"Ito..." Misari Ito thought about it and answered slowly, "There seems to be a family named Ito behind the fifth-chome elementary school. The house is obviously in ruins, but there are a few homeless-looking people coming and going."

"It sounds like it's over there." Kudo Shinichi suddenly realized and thanked the lady in front of him again, "Thank you very much, please excuse me."

"You are welcome."

Watching the smiling Ito Misari walk back into the room, Kudo Shinichi turned around and the smile on his face faded.

He looked at his companions in front of him for advice: "Do you think this family and the previous one need to be investigated further?"

"Are you saying that Lawyer Ito Misari is also suspicious?" Mao Lilan couldn't believe it and shook her head vigorously, "No, it's impossible. It must be the previous family..."

"Well, it's also possible." Understanding that Mao Lilan couldn't accept being praised by Fei Yingli, Ito Misari, who had such a good reputation, was put among the suspects, and Kudo Shinichi softened his tone without being bitten to death.

In his opinion, the appearance of Ito two blocks away did not look like a good person. However, Misari Ito provided an address far away from here just now, which made her more suspicious.

No matter how it sounds, it sounds like he wants to lure them further away.

"How about we split up, you two." Keenly aware of Mao Lilan's thoughts, Toru Amuro and Karasawa looked at each other and said quickly, "I tend to believe that Hattori-kun's disappearance is closely related to these two families. You guys. How about the two of you go back to that house and take a closer look, and the two of us take a look at this one?"

Kudo Shinichi looked at Toru Amuro seriously and had to admire the other person's ability to observe words and emotions.

This kind of grouping, whether it is force value, detective ability, or taking into account Mao Lilan's mentality, is a choice that has the best of both worlds.

As expected, he is an adult with long sleeves and is good at dancing. No wonder it only took a short time for the office to run smoothly.

Although the main voice and appearance are those of Goro Akechi...

"Okay." Kudo Shin nodded, glanced at Karasawa, who in his mind had been reckless many times to protect people, and gave an extra warning, "Remember to notify us if you find any problems."

I just don’t want you to say that.

Tang Ze glanced at him faintly, but nodded proactively to show that he heard.

Watching the two high school students walking towards the intersection, Toru Amuro moved his neck from left to right while putting away his smile.

"Law-abiding citizens have left." Tangze, who also put away his gentle expression, raised his eyebrows, "This is a time when high school students should not participate."

The two of them were sent away, more because of the presence of concerned citizens than because of any caring attitude, which made them restrained.

Toru Amuro turned around and looked at the courtyard door that was closed again behind him. He stood on tiptoes and lightly climbed onto the wall.

"We are also law-abiding citizens." He emphasized, having entered the bourbon state, "You are still a high school student, Kumail."

Since when did Bourbon and Kumail need a search warrant to break into someone's home?

————

"Good boy, wait for mommy here first." Misari Ito put the cat in her arms on the cat climbing frame with a kind face, and stroked the cat's short hair twice, "Mom will prepare dinner for you when she is done, honey. "

She kept her gentle smile, pulled down the attic ladder again, and walked step by step into the dim attic.

There were bruises on the corners of his eyes and mouth, and he didn't know where he was scratched, and blood was dripping down his brow. Hattori Heiji sat there leaning back, trying to control his breathing.

The previous beating obviously caused him a lot of pain. His cheeks twitched slightly with his breathing, as if he was trying to reduce the burden.

"Oh, wasn't he quite handsome just now? Why is he so embarrassed in the blink of an eye? Arrogant Osaka boy."

The light from below shines upward, and Misari Ito's face is eerie and terrifying under such light.

Her sweet and intimate tone makes people feel even more sarcastic and weird.

"When someone knocked on the door just now, this kid wanted to yell." The man squatting next to him sneered, reached out and roughly grabbed Hattori Heiji's hair, and pulled his face up, "Give him something to eat." It’s a bit of a pain.”

"Heiji... are you okay, Heiji...!" Feeling the trembling of the body behind him, Toyama Kazuki sniffed and whispered with a cry.

She was afraid that speaking too loudly would arouse the dissatisfaction of the gangsters, and her eyes were filled with tears for a while, but she did not dare to cry for fear of triggering a new round of violence.

Perhaps they wanted to use her to threaten Heiji into submission, but before it was time to attack her, no matter which of the two of them protested or tried to argue, they would punch and kick Hattori Heiji, making her dare not say a word now.

"You have a lot of friends, Detective Osaka?" Ito Misari sneered and patted Hattori Heiji's face twice, "You can also attract the famous detective Kudo Shinichi? Not bad."

Hattori Heiji breathed hard, trying to suppress the burden of pain in his muscles.

He raised his head, looked at the woman's gloomy and provocative face, and tried to smile: "What's wrong, are you jealous of me?"

"You bastard..."

"Hey, don't do anything yet." He raised his hand and waved away the men next to him. Misari Ito sat down on the ground and said, "We invited you here because we are optimistic about your strength, kid. It's a pity that your friend is quite good. Be careful, you brought a lot of people with you, otherwise it would be nice to have him come and do the questions with you."

Hattori Heiji twitched his lips and looked at her face calmly: "One of the victims framed by you has come to your door. Are you not a little panicked?"

Both Kudo and Mori came over, so there was no reason that Karasawa wasn't here.

Although he is not sure that this woman still remembers Tang Ze's face, the situation is not good for him now. The other party does not even block her face, and it is obvious that she has no intention of letting them leave alive. He must not give in in words and must delay as much time as possible. .

If it were those guys, they would definitely be able to find out the clues.

"What do you mean, what do you mean one of the victims..." Misari Ito frowned, and just as he was about to ask Hattori Heiji what he meant, another series of rapid doorbell sounds, accompanied by the meowing of a cat, came from below.

Apparently, someone knocked on the door again.
