Conan: I'm really not a model worker at a winery

Chapter 499

The case discussion meeting lasted until noon.

The lineup of members of this meeting is not luxurious:
The head of the first search section, Kiyoshi Matsumoto, was present in person to supervise the process of solving the case. The policemen from all counties involved in this serial murder case together accounted for almost 50 people;

Regarding the specific circumstances of the six people killed so far, the First Search Division has done a thorough analysis and shared the current information with the police departments of the various counties, but...

Because the murderer who committed a series of cases was too cunning, they have not grasped any strong clues to the murderer so far.

Therefore, there is only one joint meeting to brainstorm ideas.

The common features of several cases - including the mahjong tiles around the deceased and the items taken away - can already show that the crime was committed by the same person.

But it is a pity that so far, almost all the clues the police have so far...

Even Matsuda Jinhei's point of "overlapping social circles" is completely futile: After investigation, the life circles of these six people are completely inconsistent with each other.

And let alone the murder weapon at the scene, there is not even a prisoner's hair...

In this situation, even if a famous detective was present, he would be helpless. What's more, the two "parallel imports" Lie and Mori Kogoro who were present this time...they had nothing to do except hold their chins and think.

……

Outside the first meeting room.

Mao Lilan pulled Conan to sit on a chair and wait while reviewing his homework.

On the other hand, Conan was wearing an invisible earphone, listening with a slightly heavy expression to what he had eavesdropped on the bug in Kogoro Mori's pocket.

He didn't expect that the case he discovered in the middle of the night would actually intensify now...

If I had known earlier, he would have participated in the process of solving the case. Maybe the case would have been solved long ago.

Conan's thinking is optimistic.

……

When Belmode left the Metropolitan Police Department, his expression was a little dazed.

She looked back at the towering Metropolitan Police Department building, and the glasses lenses reflected a slightly harsh light.

——She is now the glasses policeman who was patted and asked 'is vermouth good?'.

"How did you find out?"

Belmode was a little frustrated.

——The proud technique is seen through, and it is estimated that anyone who changes it will be a bit sad...

However, when he thought of seeing the little angel he was thinking of today, Belmode's mood improved a lot in an instant.

Considering that there will be a discussion meeting on the case in the afternoon, but she is not a participant, after thinking about it, she went to the public toilet to remove her disguise, and called her companion:

"Calvados, are you still watching from the Metropolitan Police Department?"

Naturally, it is impossible for such a major operation of infiltrating the police station to be followed by no one. It is just because the intelligence officers have been transferred away, and only the bottom members and a few snipers are left.

So after careful consideration, Belmode still chose Calvados, who had partnered with him.

...Even if this guy was more or less cheating himself in the last action against the FBI.

"Miss Belmode! Of course I'm still in the position you arranged." Calvados's voice still sounded flattering, "You are so noble, beautiful, generous, clear water and hibiscus, how dare I leave without giving me instructions? Woolen cloth?"

Belmode twitched the corners of his mouth cryptically: "Really? But how can I remember that when Gin gave the order last time, someone ran faster than a rabbit?"

Calvados choked:
"... Ah, this... oh! Actually, it was because Gin pointed a gun at my head, even though I resisted desperately, I was finally dragged away by him...Miss Belmode, you have to believe me, I am Innocent!"

Belmod: "..."

What was Gin thinking when he pulled Calvados into his organization?
——Bermode only found out when he half-heartedly agreed to join the five-star group, and Calvados was actually from Gin.

Not only Calvados, but even the two snipers brought out by him, Chianti Cohen, were also won over by gin...

But there is one thing to say, although Calvados is very inconspicuous most of the time, he even likes to let people go, and he usually does things according to his temper... But in terms of loyalty, he does do a good job.

For example, even if he had a good impression of Belmode, when Gin said 'sell' the last time he acted, he turned around and left without hesitation to sell him.

On the contrary, Belmode is happy to see the results, but occasionally he will talk about things, but most of them are ridiculed. In fact, there is no gap - they are all from the professional background of the organization. As long as the interests and goals are the same, Nothing is unsolvable.

"...Calvados, don't be poor!"

Listening to the voice on the phone, Belmode only felt that a hundred ducks were quacking, and interrupted each other with a black face:
"Listen to me, Ireland will probably stay in the Metropolitan Police Department for two more days, until the end of the meeting at this stage... During this period, I need your help to watch. Of course, Cohen and Chianti can also be transferred."

"Oh! Two more days to watch? No problem! I'll let Xiao Ke and Xiao Ji bring some picnic tools right away!" Calvados's voice was suddenly excited.

But Belmode was dumbfounded——

Xiao, Xiao Ke?Xiaoji?Picnic tools?

Is this on a surveillance mission or out for an outing? ? ?

But Calvados on the other side of the phone didn't think there was any problem at all, "Miss Belmode, your mission should be over, right? How about having a cup of afternoon tea together?"

"...No, you can drink it yourself." Calvados once again refreshed Belmode's perception of him, and he held his forehead speechlessly, "I still need to find a way to speed up the process of solving the case... that's it Bar."

After that, she quickly cut off the phone, to prevent Calvados from continuing to chat with her.

Before joining the five-star group, Belmode really didn't think how unreliable Calvados could be.

After explaining to Calvados, Belmode was even more worried——

She could even imagine Calvados, Chianti, and Cohen lighting a bonfire with a sniper rifle on a certain building, stringing a string of meat with the barrel, and staring at the police station with a scope while grilling. look like.

Belmode trembled all over.

The picture is too beautiful, she is worried.

After thinking for a while, Belmode still took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Ireland, asking if the other party had finished their work.

……

Metropolitan Police Hall, outside the meeting room.

Lie and Mori Kogoro, who were invited as consultants, did not get the privilege of "leaving early". Instead, they were left behind after the meeting was adjourned, and were warmly greeted by the police officer Mumu...

... Well, Police Officer Mu Mu is actually here to ask them not to hide their secrets, and it is best to tell the police what they think of.

Anyway, so many colleagues gathered in Tokyo today are all free labor.

"But~ it's not that Mr. Maori and I are not good enough, it's really that you can't see anything~"

Lie spread his hands, expressing helplessness, and took out his small notebook: "Look, Police Officer Mu Mu, one of the circles on each mahjong tile is painted red, with subtitles on the back, and a vertical line in the middle... There have been six identical incidents, this must be the prisoner's reminder, right?"

"Exactly." Mu Mu Shisan nodded.

This is a question that has been clarified at the meeting just now.

"However, until now, we haven't found the connection between these six people, and we don't know what the conflict between the victim and the murderer is. It's impossible to reason at all~" Lie sighed sadly.

And Mori Kogoro tried his best to show his sense of existence: "If you want me to say...you are still friends who play mahjong together? Otherwise, why use mahjong tiles to express it?"

Lie retorted: "No, no, this is unlikely... because if it's just playing mahjong, the lines and English behind it won't make any sense..."

Police officer Mu Mu looked at Lie, then at Kogoro Mouri, and also sighed.

The difficulty of this event is too high for them, right?
However, Police Officer Mu Mu suddenly had an idea, and looked at a certain god of death sitting with Mao Lilan:
"Then, if it's Conan, do you have any opinions?"

Both Lie and Mori Kogoro were taken aback.

"Conan? Is that the child who lives in Maori's house?"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who was standing next to Officer Megure, showed a puzzled expression.
