Conan's other self

Maplehara knew the code name Tequila.

More familiar with the two code names of gin and vodka.

These code names all refer to members of the black organization.

However, by the time he heard these code names from Conan, the Megure Police Department had already arrived.

Before coming here, he thought he was just here to attend a game conference. At most, there would be a case where a certain president was poisoned to death by cyanide.

"Fengyuan, what do you think?"

After reporting the information that could be made public to the Megure Police Department, Conan came to Fengyuan and told Fengyuan that he suspected that the deceased and the men in black were a group.

"Well...if they are really a group, then the person who wants to kill him should not be a simple person, right?" Fengyuan said, "So-"

"So as long as we find the murderer, we will know whether he is the person we are looking for." Conan continued, "However, using bombs to kill people on such occasions is really cruel."

Conan was still frightened.

If it hadn't been for luck, he might have been blown to pieces by now.

In order to find the murderer as soon as possible and get clues about the black organization, Conan told Maplehara everything he had seen and heard before.

"The number plate that person holds is No. 98?"

"Yes," Conan replied, "I'm right next to you and can hear you very clearly."

When the tall man went to the service desk to get something, Conan had already set his sights on him.

"I remember Xiaolan's number is 100," Fengyuan said. Because the number happened to be an integer, Xiaolan also mentioned, "If he was right in front of us, there's no way we wouldn't notice it."

Conan was stunned for a moment. Not only was the man dressed in conspicuous clothes, he was also two meters tall. "That's right. So this number plate must have been given to him by someone else..."

"By the way, the man still said on the phone that 'the transaction is completed', so this number plate must have been given to him by his transaction partner!"

As he spoke, Conan showed a confident expression.

He already had a suspect.

Under Fengyuan's reminder, he remembered that several Mantiantian employees had jumped into Xiaolan's queue, right in front of her.

So No. 98 must be one of those three people.

And coincidentally, one of them not only met the tall man, but also had brief physical contact with him.

"They must have exchanged number plates when they collided," Conan reasoned to Feng Yuan, "The man named Nakajima must be the transaction partner... and as for the evidence, as long as..."

Conan glanced at Maplehara.

"You go." Feng Yuan replied expressionlessly.

Conan curled his lips and didn't take it seriously. He was used to it.

Soon, Conan ran to Nakajima and pulled Nakajima's clothes.

"Uncle~" Conan said cutely, "Can you show me your number plate? I haven't seen the employee's number plate yet~"

"Huh?" Nakajima was stunned for a moment, "Oh... you are the child brought by Detective Maori... You must have met him before, right? There is nothing special."

"But, I just want to take a look, give me a look~"

Although it looks so cute that people can't bear to look at it, Conan's face still adds a lot of points.

Coupled with the fact that he was just a child who didn't seem to be very sensible, Nakajima handed the number plate to Conan.

No. 124.

Not in front of Xiaolan.

Judging from the previous queues, the queues even extended outside the hotel.

Conan returned the number plate to the other party, ran back to Feng Yuan, and then nodded to Feng Yuan.

"That guy must be the trading partner." Conan said, "But it's strange. If he planned to silence him from the beginning, why would he choose to trade here? If there was an explosion at his company's video game conference, He himself will be suspected."

"Furthermore," Conan recalled, "the tall man also said 'why can't he get in' in the toilet? Thinking about it now, he probably meant that the key couldn't open it - if you want to kill him, there is no need to give him a An inappropriate key?"

At the previous explosion scene, they found that the iron label on the briefcase carried by the tall man was bent toward the outside of the briefcase, so the bomb should have been placed inside the briefcase.

"That's..." Fengyuan paused, "The murderer killed the wrong person."

Maplehara's biggest impression of the name Tequila is that it is "unlucky".

The murderer actually wanted to kill Nakajima, so he put a bomb in his briefcase, and then found an opportunity to secretly change his number plate to Nakajima.

Because of the transaction, Nakajima changed the number plate to the deceased.

Because their transaction process was so fast and covert, even Nakajima himself didn't notice that his number plate had been changed.

So Tequila died unjustly on the spot.

Conan figured it out quickly.

then…

Conan shot an anesthetic needle at Uncle Maori.

Then the shot went wrong.

The needle stuck into Xiaolan's pants.

"..."

This was the first time Maplehara saw the scene where Conan used an anesthesia needle to watch Uncle Mouri, but he didn't expect to see the scene of failure.

Conan was also embarrassed.

The anesthesia needle designed by Dr. Ari will evaporate in the air soon, so seeing that Xiaolan didn't look like she was about to faint, Conan decided not to take it off. After all, Maplehara also had another anesthesia needle watch.

Maplehara, who originally thought he could watch the famous scene, had no choice but to open the cover of his watch and pointed it at Uncle Mouri in the dark.

...Then he took off the watch and gave it to Conan.

"You come."

He must meet once.

…

The murderer is Takeshita.

Borrowing Uncle Mori's voice, Conan asked Nakajima to open his briefcase. Although very reluctant, Nakajima was forced to open the bag at the request of the police.

The bag is full of cash.

At this moment, Takeshita, who was unaware of the deal between Nakajima and the man in black and thought the bag Nakajima was holding still contained the bomb he planted, exposed himself by trying to avoid the explosion.

The number plate he was holding corresponded to the briefcase that Nakajima planned to trade, which became one of the evidences.

Soon, the reasoning reached the part that Conan cared about most.

Warning that "there will be retaliation if the deal fails", Conan successfully got Nakajima to tell him about the black organization.

However, Nakajima was only doing transactions. He only knew that every time they would meet at a bar called the Cocktail Bar on the top floor of the Daikoku Building on Mihua Street.

Although there is no other more information, Nakajima's recognition of the term "organization" shows that the deceased is not a single person, and this group of guys may really be the black organization.

So leaving Uncle Maori who was still asleep, Conan ran out.

Feng Yuan also followed out.

Downstairs in the Daikoku Building, Maplehara grabbed Conan who was out of breath from running.

"Hey!" Conan turned around subconsciously, "What's wrong?"

"If it's true that the guy named Tequila was killed while on the phone, as you said," Maplehara said, "then the person on the other end of the phone must already know about it."

"But even if they evacuate, they might still leave clues, right?" Conan said, "Let me go up quickly -"

"What if there's a trap?"

Fengyuan didn't want to go up.

He remembered there would be another explosion.

Entering that bar will most likely trigger the bomb in advance.

However, just when he was still thinking about how to persuade Conan, there was a loud explosion from the top of the building.

…

Maplehara felt that he had speeded up Conan's reasoning, but the bomb still exploded before he and Conan arrived.

This means that there is another person from the black organization at the scene.

Because in the manga version, Haibara Ai appeared long after Miyano Akemi's death, so in the early stage I used part of the animation version's settings and part of the manga version's settings, and then accidentally ran into a bug in the animation version.

So I didn’t want to write the Tequila plot, but I did it anyway.

Later, Miyano Akemi appeared. The plot was based on the manga version, but the time was delayed like the animated version.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.
