Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1340 Meeting
In addition to being limited in range, the locating spell cannot find someone who deliberately hides their appearance.

Because the appearance is hidden, it is no longer the appearance that appears in the mind of the caster, so it cannot be found.

"It seems that Shuichi left with a clear plan..."

Qin Zhibo, who was standing by the window, turned around and looked at Amuro Toru, "If that's the case, it might be difficult for your people to find him."

"After all, he just lost his memory, but his extraordinary abilities are still there..."

The current Shuichi Akai is equivalent to Jason Bourne in "The Bourne Supremacy", who has lost his memory but not his skills.

But Qin Zhibo couldn’t understand why Akai Shuichi chose to leave at this time?

If it was out of distrust of himself and Toru Amuro, he should have left long ago.

At this time, Akai Mary stood up from the sofa.

"Since Shuichi isn't here, there's nothing we can do..."

"Maybe the kid has his own considerations."

As a mother, there was not much sadness in Mary's words, but rather calmness and peace.

In other words, it was because Shuichi Akai chose to leave that she was able to calm down.

Because this at least proves that Shuichi Akai's thinking is still normal and he has things he wants to do.

"I can't meet him today. I can only say that our mother-son destiny has not yet arrived..."

"Mr. Amuro, as Akai Shuichi's mother, I want to thank you again for taking care of him during this time."

"If Shuichi still remembers your friend, he would be glad to have made your friend..."

As she said this, Mary bowed slightly to Amuro Toru to express her gratitude.

Faced with such a polite and considerate mother, Toru Amuro was slightly stunned and even felt a little uncomfortable.

In fact, it was not his original intention to take care of Shuichi Akai. He wanted to wait for Shuichi Akai to recover his memory and then ask him about Keimitsu Morobushi.

During the period when Shuichi Akai was still an undercover agent in the organization, the two of them were even in an irreconcilable hostility.

But Mary misunderstood that they were just friends.

This made Toru Amuro blush a little.

"You're welcome……"

"This is what I should do."

……

After leaving Kudo's house, Qin Zhibo took Mary to the Beido Zunhao Hotel and checked in.

Although Haido Grand Hotel is located within Haido Town, it is also very close to Beihua.

The most important thing is that it is not far from Yasuharu Haneda's home.

The two agreed to visit Yasuharu Haneda together tomorrow.

When Qin Zhibo returned to the detective agency he had been away from for a long time, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief while sitting on the sofa in the agency.

As the saying goes, a nest of gold or silver is not as good as your own doghouse.

Going out for a long walk, it's still better to be at home~
There is a familiar smell in the air and the environment is still as clean as ever.

Qin Zhibo opened the window on the second floor to ventilate the room, closed his eyes and rested for a while in the office with the lights off, then began to sort out the mailbox.

This mailbox is not an email mailbox on a computer, but a physical mailbox hanging on the wall at the entrance of the office.

Since this long trip took quite a while, my mailbox is already full.

Most of the items inside were advertising flyers and coupons from nearby shops. Qin Zhibo kept some that interested him and threw the rest into the trash can.

There are also several letters from clients.

Qin Zhibo opened the letter and took a look. They were all the same old commissions.

For example, a certain lady received threatening letters on her birthday every year, in which she was called a "foolish woman who blasphemes the flow of time."

What is this? Is this a punishment for Vermouth?

However, Qin Zhibo certainly did not think that someone had sent a threatening letter to Vermouth.

Finally, there was the invitation letter from the program team of "The Most Wanted Class in the World" inviting me to participate in the recording of the program.

However, Qin Zhibo had no interest in recording the program, as it was not a program hosted by Rena Mizunashi.

Thinking of Rena Mizuno, Qin Zhibo decided to find an opportunity to talk to her.

It has now been basically clarified that the organization's ship photographed by Rena Mizunashi's father Ethan Hondou at the Tokyo Port dock seven years ago, and the woman standing on the deck of the ship was Elena Miyano.

Elena Miyano is not dead. She may have been staying on that huge ship whose whereabouts are uncertain all these years.

Alfonso, head of Delta Green, the organization behind Ethan Bentang, once said that he suspected the ship itself was a giant floating laboratory.

Every time the ship docked it was to resupply, and its route at sea was unpredictable.

The only thing known is that the ship spent most of its time in the ocean without a very definite destination.

Qin Zhibo had no idea about this speculation before.

But now it seems likely to be true.

Elena Miyano's identity is an organizational scientist, and the place where she has been staying should also be a place where research and experiments can be carried out.

But what kind of research will the organization conduct on board the ship?

If it is drug research, the organization has always had a laboratory in Japan, which is the "Yaobai Bio-Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd." where Haibara Ai worked before leaving the organization.

If Elena Miyano were still alive, it would be impossible for her to conduct the drug research that Haibara Ai is also conducting.

What kind of research would the organization have her conduct on the ship?

Qin Zhibo pondered for a while, but still couldn't think of anything.

But the only thing that is certain is that Elena's research has now come to an end.

Even succeeded.

Because Elena has now started performing tasks that other non-scientists perform.

Especially helping the organization boss hide his background, this is definitely not a task that ordinary organization members can accomplish.

Because helping the organization's boss hide his background means that she must also know the organization's boss's background.

Elena is aware of her own background.

She knew that her bloodline came from the Spencer family more than 100 years ago.

That Spencer Renye, the current Black Organization boss Karasuma Renye, is her ancestor...

If Karasuma Renya was using his family bloodline to get Elena to help him, then Miyano Atsushi would most likely be a victim.

Elena's purpose in approaching Miyano Atsushi was for his research on "resurrection of the dead".

As a wife, she constantly encouraged Atsushi Miyano to conduct this inhumane experiment and encouraged him to join the Karasuma Group.

In the end, Miyano Atsushi was completely exploited to the point where he had lost all his value and was ruthlessly abandoned.

It seems that Elena might know the complete plan of the organization's boss.

She is an important breakthrough...

There is also the organization’s huge ship, which is also a key clue.

We must find a way to figure out what is in there.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Qin Zhibo got up early, washed up, and went to Beihu Zunhao Hotel to find Mary.

Because she was still suffering from jet lag, Mary was still sleeping when Qin Zhibo arrived at the hotel.

Qin Zhibo could only wait in a family restaurant near the Zunhao Hotel.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Mary came out of the hotel and went to the family restaurant to keep the appointment.

The two of them had a simple breakfast and then took a car to Haneda's house.

When they arrived at Haneda's residence, the two met Haneda Yasuharu as they wished.

"Kang Qing, long time no see."

"Mary..."

Mary hugged Yasuharu Haneda, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

Qin Zhibo looked at Haneda Yasuharu and was also a little surprised.

After not seeing him for a while, Haneda Yasuharu's health has deteriorated to the point where he is wheelchair-bound. When I think back to the first time I met him, we chose to meet outside, and Haneda Yasuharu looked pretty strong at the time.

"Kang Qing, why are you in a wheelchair?" Mary also noticed this and asked.

With a hint of helplessness in his eyes, Haneda Yasuharu smiled and said, "I'm old now, and I have to admit that I'm old."

"I don't know if my body can last until the day when the people who killed Haosi are punished..."

There was a hint of self-mockery in Yasuharu Haneda's eyes.

In the 17 years since the death of Hiroshi Haneda, he has been committed to finding the murderer behind the case of Hiroshi Haneda and avenging his son.

But till today, the day when the murderer behind the scenes will be brought down still seems to be a long way off.

This gradually changed his mentality.

Especially when one is suffering from a physical illness, one cannot help but think of the worst-case scenario.

Seeing that Yasuharu Haneda was a little depressed, Mary gave him a firm look and comforted him.

"Believe me, there will be a day..."

Yasuharu Haneda put his hands on the armrests of the wheelchair, looked at Mary, and slowly smiled.

"I believe……"

"Mary, what's the matter with your visit to Japan this time?"

"I heard that London wasn't very peaceful..."

When talking about the unrest in London, Yasuharu Haneda's eyes were looking at Qin Zhibo.

Qin Zhibo knew that Yasuharu Haneda had probably learned about what happened at Stonehenge through the channels of the Nine Angels.

When it came to business, Mary regained her serious expression.

She said seriously, "This time I came to Japan, I planned to see the children."

“And…Kang Qing, do you still remember Elena?”

"Elena?"

Haneda Yasuharu hesitated for a moment, then he remembered and murmured, "I remember that was your sister..."

Mary nodded, "Yes, Elena is my biological sister. She and her husband died in a laboratory fire 17 years ago."

"Recently, I learned that she is still alive."

"Elena is still alive?" Yasuharu Haneda frowned slightly, with a look of surprise on his face.

He had never seen Elena in person, nor had he ever made friends with her.

But 17 years ago, Mary came to Japan with her children to seek refuge, and he knew that Mary came to Japan to find her sister.

However, after inquiring through various channels, it was confirmed that Elena and her husband died in a laboratory fire.

Her child was also missing after that.

But today, Mary said that Elena was still alive, which shocked Yasuharu Haneda.

"She's still alive..."

"I met her in England not long ago."

Mary's eyes were a little complicated. "But she is not what I thought..."

"People always change." Yasuharu Haneda comforted.

"But she's become too much."

Mary said firmly: "My intuition tells me that Elena will also return to Japan."

"So this time when I come back, I want to bring her back..."

In fact, it's not just Mary's intuition, it's also true from a reasoning perspective.

Now, a package of action plans for the organization has been established.

The boss of the organization originated in Japan, and the headquarters of the Karasuma Group is also in Japan.

By then, Elena will definitely return to Japan to protect the organization's headquarters.

Mary didn't know what kind of drug that man had given her sister, but as an elder sister, she had the obligation to bring her sister back.

Yasuharu Haneda was also slightly moved after hearing Mary's plan.

"Ok."

"If there's anything you can do for an old man like me, just let me know. You're welcome."

"While my increasingly cold body can still emit some residual heat... cough, cough..."

Yasuharu Haneda does look weak.

This made Qin Zhibo, who had been silent, feel that it was unlikely that he would be able to participate in the final round against the organization.

However, Qin Zhibo wanted to make friends with the Japanese public security officer who had been in contact with Yasuharu Haneda.

At present, Qin Zhibo only knows that this person is someone who knows about the organization and is Toru Amuro's superior.

Qin Zhibo expressed his thoughts and also repeated the package plan he had made in London.

"It is now a general trend for various investigation organizations to unite to fight against the black organizations."

"I think Japan also needs someone to take the lead."

Haneda Yasuharu nodded in understanding, and then said: "I can tell you his identity..."

"He is the head of the First Investigation Division of the Nagano Prefecture Investigation Headquarters, and also the behind-the-scenes director of the Security Planning Division of the National Police Agency's Security Bureau."

"Kuroda Bei."

Nagano Prefecture's Investigation Division?
Qin Zhibo frowned. He had never been to Nagano Prefecture, so he was not very familiar with the police there.

"Got it. I'll find him and discuss this matter face to face..."

Just then, the study door was pushed open and a little girl ran in.

"grandfather!"

"I'm back from school!"

When the little girl saw Yasuharu Haneda meeting a guest, she stood there in a daze, feeling a bit caught in a dilemma.

It was Yasuharu Haneda who smiled and waved, motioning the girl to come over.

When she saw the little girl, Mary's expression froze for a moment.

"She is……"

"Her name is Yuriko Matsunaka, and she is my adopted child."

Yasuharu Haneda smiled and patted Yuriko's head, saying, "Say hello, this is Aunt Mary."

"Hello Aunt Mary!"

"Hello Uncle Qin!"

The little girl's innocent smile touched the maternal part of Mary.

Yasuharu Haneda kindly helped Yuriko take off her schoolbag. "How is it? Are you hungry?"

"Hmm~"

"Then let's go to the restaurant first. I still have some things to discuss with my uncles and aunts..."

"Okay." Yuriko nodded obediently, "Then grandpa should come quickly..."

"Well, grandpa will be there soon after we finish talking about things."

After Yuriko left, Mary said, "I didn't know you adopted another child..."

Yasuharu Haneda put Yuriko's schoolbag aside and replied, "She was adopted recently..."

"Zhibo knows the details."

Qin Zhibo certainly knew, because Yuriko Matsunaka was the orphan in the Angel's House incident.

Her great-grandfather, Gozo Isegawa, was the previous head of the organization and the father of the current head.

Now, as the 17th heir to Isegawa Tsuyoshi, Matsunaka Yuriko has inherited all of Rum's inheritance.

According to the letter left by Isegawa Tsuyoshi, the current Rum will get back his inheritance sooner or later.

This is the profound meaning behind Yasuharu Haneda's acquisition of custody of Yuriko Matsunaka.
