The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Chapter 809: Dongdu Tower, Danger

"You are right, Kudo. The positions on the map are almost exactly the same as the Big Dipper's star map." Looking at the flashing screen in front of her, Huiyuan Ai nodded at the Q-version figure on the lower right corner of the desktop, "This criminal is a bit stereotyped."

"Yeah, he is quite meticulous."

After subduing the victim, he was specially transported to the designated location to be killed. In order to form a star map on the map, he did not hesitate to cross many places and counties...

Thinking of his own guess, Conan narrowed his eyes.

If the murderer is the victim's brother Motokami Kazuki instead of Mizutani Hirosuke, then if he had not deliberately led the suspicion to Mizutani Hirosuke, he would not have needed to make such a complicated design, and naturally there would be no chance to alarm the police in so many places, so that he was surrounded by concentrated police forces...

Should we say that this guy is too smart for his own good?

"Can you help me find the location of the eighth star?" Conan asked the most important question.

If the murderer succeeds, the truth of the whole thing may be completely buried with the death of Mizutani Hirosuke.

Not to mention the all-important list.

"Use the existing seven locations to determine the location of the last North Star, right? Wait a minute." Huiyuan Ai dictated his request, then watched Noah quickly determine the connection on the map, mark the location and zoom in, and truthfully told the content displayed, "Shiba Park in Minato District."

"Okay, I got it! Thank you."

Listening to the fast speed of speech and the hung up call on the other end of the phone, Huiyuan Ai reached out and tapped Noah on the screen: "He said thank you to you."

"It's just comparing the images. It's a very simple thing, Miss Shiho." Noah on the screen smiled, "It's the same if you do it yourself."

Yes, it's very simple for humans, but for you as an artificial intelligence, it's actually a great job.

Huiyuan Ai, who has been assisting and contacting the doctor's research for a long time, has gradually learned some knowledge of artificial intelligence and computer programming, and now fully realizes how the intellectual Noah's Ark is ahead of its time.

And the person who created him was only ten years old when he died...

Grayfield Ai stopped thinking and picked up the test tube and shook it a few times: "Yes, but I have my own things to do. If you are not here, I can't spare my time."

"Are you preparing reagents for Tang Ze?" With the help of the camera next to the computer, Noah's Ark captured her movements and made an animation of turning her head and staring on the screen, "He really knows how to order people around."

"There is no way, there are some things that others can't do for you." Looking at the blue liquid medicine in her hand, Grayfield Ai smiled implicitly, "I am the only researcher among all people who have been exposed to those experiments and even participated in the design. Some things must be done by me."

She turned around and looked at the instrument lying quietly behind her with the hatch opened.

"Do you miss it, Noah?"

"No, I can't decide what the external connection device looks like."

"Do you have the records of the soothing program? Do you need me to retrieve it separately from my uncle's data?"

"Yes, it was one of my core mechanisms after all."

"Okay, let's give it a try, we have limited time..."

"Are Mizutani Kousuke and Motogami Nanako's hobbies stargazing?" Megure Jusan frowned and pondered after hearing the news over the phone.

"Yes, their former neighbors and Motogami Nanako's family are sure of this, and they also said that the two of them got together because of similar hobbies." The police on the other end of the phone gave a positive answer.

"I know, very important information, thank you."

After hanging up the phone, the people in the conference room exchanged incomprehensible glances, and finally cast their eyes on the police who were operating the computer.

"It is indeed consistent with the opinions of Officer Morifushi and Detective Maori. The shape on the map does match the Big Dipper." Shiratori Renzaburo enlarged the processed map on the projection. "The last missing star corresponds to Shiba Park in Minato District."

Morofushi Gaoming lowered his head to show his humility, while Maori Kogoro scratched the back of his head very embarrassedly.

"Shame on you, shame on you..." He smiled awkwardly in response to the approving eyes around him.

This is not a victory of logic or thinking ability. He just felt sleepy while reading the information and couldn't help lying down. When he was woken up, the map at hand was scattered all over the table. When he hurriedly sorted it out, because of the angle, he suddenly remembered the pendant on the bag that the kid downstairs, Tang Ze, bought yesterday...

If he had to say, it was more of luck.

However, the re-energized task force obviously didn't care how he got the answer. The atmosphere in the entire meeting room was cleared up, and they entered into a state of intense discussion and sorting again.

"Manager Matsumoto, what do you think?" Seeing that everyone had gotten out of the situation where someone might be killed tonight and the police were helpless, Megure Jusan looked at his boss with a calm expression beside him.

Matsumoto Kiyonaga has been in charge of the command and wartime decision-making of various major cases for many years. No matter what conclusions his subordinates come to, he must make the final decision on the action.

"At present, it seems that the probability of the murderer appearing in this place tonight is extremely high." Matsumoto Kiyonaga said in a deep voice, "Get ready immediately, and everyone will go out to search for possible crime scenes around Shiba Park!"

The police officers in the conference room agreed in unison.

"yes!"

"Xiaolan, are you really not coming to the East Capital Tower? The Chinese Valentine's Day activities are quite big. There are many people wearing yukata here..."

Mao Lilan, who was sitting at the table, clicked on the TV, and the channel happened to switch to a related evening program.

The host, who was wearing a light-colored kimono and smiling brightly, stood in front of the camera and introduced the grand occasion of Toto Tower's Tanabata event tonight. Behind her, various couples or relatives and friends in yukata were walking back and forth. It was very interesting. lively.

She looked down at the noodle bowl in front of her, then at the empty room where she was the only one, and sighed softly.

"Forget it, Sonoko, you and Jingji are having fun. Didn't you say before that he was considering going abroad for competition and training? Let's get along with him more." She quickly calmed down her emotions, and Mao Lilan said with a smile replied.

"Hey, are you really not coming? How boring would it be for you to stay at home alone during such a lively Chinese Valentine's Day, with only the kid accompanying you?" Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but raise her voice, which attracted the surrounding tourists to look at her.

Kyogoku, who was actually not used to being stared at by so many people, rubbed his neck and changed his standing direction, trying his best to block the looks from others.

He didn't mind Suzuki Sonoko's carefree side - he might even find it a bit cute - but when she hung up the phone and realized that she had attracted too much attention, he might be a little embarrassed.

It would be great if there really was a kid with me...

Mao Lilan tilted his head and replied helplessly: "Conan is not at home either. He said he had something to do with his classmates."

This is of course not true.

Conan seemed to be very interested in the case his father was handling, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Tang Ze to ask him for relevant information. She was naturally happy to see it happen.

It was now certain that her father's real ability as a detective was far less famous than his reputation. She didn't want to see him lose his dignity in front of his former colleagues.

But during the investigation, Conan seemed to have discovered some important clues, and suddenly sent her a message, asking her not to contact him at any time. If the matter was urgent, it was best to contact Tang Ze downstairs as quickly as possible. To avoid danger.

She was indeed worried about Conan's situation, but it was hard for her to pursue further questions when the words came to this.

So I can only sit here and wait anxiously.

"Wouldn't it be even worse? These unreliable men belong to both young and old!" Suzuki Sonoko's eyes widened and she had already begun to roll up her sleeves. "No, hurry up and find a yukata. It's really If you can’t catch that Kudo guy, why don’t you ask Karasawa to come with you? Then you can take a few photos and make that reasoning mad... Wait a minute?”

"Hey, be careful!" Seeing Suzuki Sonoko take a quick step and lie down on the railing of the observation deck to look down, Kyogoku quickly stretched out his hand and held her waist.

It's hard to take too long a step when wearing a yukata. She's sprinting so fast that one really worries about tripping or something.

Suddenly Kyogoku's strong arms were wrapped around her waist. Suzuki Sonoko's face turned red and she quickly shifted her attention to look downstairs again at the target that had attracted her attention just now.

A little boy on a skateboard was nimbly passing through the crowd downstairs and quickly approaching the East Capital Tower.

"I saw that kid!" Suzuki Sonoko grabbed the railing and tried to lean down to look down, "Conan is coming to the Toto Tower! Really, there is no reason why Tanabata left you at home and ran out to play by yourself. Well, damn it.”

"You said Conan is at the Tokyo Tower?" Mao Lilan stood up suddenly and stared at the TV in front of him.

On the screen, in the live broadcast of the entrance and exit of the Dongdu Iron Tower, a figure holding a skateboard appeared in the camera, running towards the entrance below the tower.

Mao Lilan's heart tightened suddenly as she looked at his side face, which was completely exposed in the live broadcast without even having time to hide his face.

It's this feeling, this feeling that something is going to go wrong...

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"

Downstairs of the Tokyo Metropolis Tower, Conan, who didn't even know he had been caught repeatedly, handed the skateboard in his hand to the service staff standing at the door responsible for storing items.

"Sister, can you help me store this thing? It's not convenient for me to carry it up!"

When the woman with a professional smile saw the short boy, she immediately bent down and asked in a friendly manner: "Children, it's okay, but where is your family? Don't you have a guardian?"

After all, the Dongdu Tower is a tourist attraction with a lot of traffic. It is during the event tonight, so it is very unsafe for people to come and go.

Let a child who looks only seven or eight years old enter alone. If something goes wrong, they will be held responsible.

"No, I came here with my brother and dad. I just can't find them for the time being. They seem to have gone up!" Conan, whose acting skills have improved slightly and is at least very skilled in handling children in front of strangers, immediately put on a show With a face that was about to cry, "Can you save it for me first? I'll call them right away."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and gestured to the mobile phone hanging around his neck.

Now, the reasons for the obstruction were somewhat insufficient.

The service staff looked at him awkwardly, and then looked at the entrance and exit during the peak traffic period, hesitating whether to agree directly or find someone to lead the child in to avoid accidents, and then saw a slender figure approaching from behind.

The poor Conan, who was still holding up the skateboard, felt his legs suddenly lifted into the air in the next second, and his sight was raised a lot.

"Conan, why are you in this place? There are so many people. You have to follow everyone's pace. Do you hear me?" The person who picked him up from the ground put him in his arms effortlessly, and then smiled gently at the woman at the storage office, "Please help him store his things, ma'am. My brother has troubled you."

"Oh, oh, okay..." The woman looked at the face of the speaker, not knowing whether she recognized him, her face suddenly flushed, and whispered, "Can you help me sign?"

"Oh? I don't even know I'm already so famous. "Goro Akechi, or Karasawa, who was a guest on two prime-time variety shows, smiled as if he was flattered, "Of course, it's my honor."

Conan, who was held in his arms, widened his eyes and stared at the pretentious and pretentious Goro Akechi. He took the paper from the waitress, left his personal signature in a casual manner, and whispered a few words, which made the woman blush. She looked at him with a dreamy look as he walked towards the elevator with the elementary school student in his arms.

Hey, you didn't even ask the child if he really knew him, but just because he was a celebrity, you believed his words unconditionally? Are all the waiters so unreliable now?!

"Conan, good evening." Goro Akechi, who was holding him in his arms, leaned close to his ear and said slowly, "Why, tonight, you happen to have the same goal as me?"

Conan came to the Toudou Tower tonight to stop Motokami Kazuki, and also to find out the truth of this case and get the list that is crucial to the organization.

Since Goro Akechi said so, then his goal...!

"Didn't you say that you are just a small fry at the bottom, and this matter has nothing to do with you?" Conan squeezed out this sentence from his teeth, "What are you doing here?"

"What I want to do has nothing to do with you, the little detective who is responsible for speaking for Kudo." Goro Akechi raised his eyebrows and made an almost provocative expression to him with the reflection of the elevator door.
