Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 872
Is Black Feather Pirate One still alive?
To be honest, Qin Zhibo didn't know either. After all, he didn't know much about Heiyu Pirates. He only knew that he was a genius magician who became famous all over the world 20 years ago.

Qin Zhibo didn't even go out of his way to find out how Heiyu Pirate One died.

Therefore, Kaito Kuroba's idea that "Kuroba Pirate One is still alive" is completely his own unfounded imagination.

It's fine if it's a general fantasy, but it's best not to have this kind of illusion about the dead still alive.

"Son, I never said that."

Qin Zhibo patted Heiyu Kaito on the shoulder, "The only thing that can be confirmed now is that the painting "Phantom Thief Under the Moon" is signed by Pickman. If you can find this person, you may know about your father Heiyu Kaito. One of many things.”

Kuroba Kaito's eyes became slack, and his shoulders sank a little, "Hmm..."

In fact, he and Terai Konosuke were also looking for the painter "Pickman" before, but they never got any useful clues.

Kuroba Chikage had never heard of this name, and Terai Konosuke had never heard of it, even though he knew Kuroba Pirates earlier.

Black Feather Pirates has been traveling all over the world to learn magic since he was young, and has accumulated a very deep network of contacts. Looking for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, as Qin Zhibo said, this is the only clue left by Heiyu Pirates, no matter how difficult it is, he must do it.

"Master, Mr. Qin, the meal is ready, come and have some."

Konosuke Terai brought up some dishes made in the back kitchen. They were all simple meals such as French fries and hamburgers, but it was no problem to fill his stomach.

Kuroba Kaito looked at the French fries on the table, but he didn't have much appetite.

Qin Zhibo was already starving, so he put the screws in his pocket on the bar and started eating.

Kuroba Kaito picked up the screw, a little surprised.

"this is?"

"This is the rivet used by the fake Kidd's hang glider, with letters on it." Qin Zhibo explained while eating.

Kuroba Kaito observed carefully, and sure enough, he saw the letters "NMI" on it.

"Is that an acronym for the manufacturer's name?"

Kaitou Kidd has a great reputation, and there are many imitators, but most of them are crudely made "Kidd" without even a hang glider.

But this time Kidd is indeed the most restored in history, and it does not lag behind the equipment used by the real Kidd at the technical level.

"Master."

Konosuke Terai asked, and Kaito Kuroba handed him the rivet.

The equipment of the two generations of Phantom Thief Kidd has always been provided by Terai and his friend who did not want to be named, so he knows more about equipment and props than Kuroba Kaito.

After checking the structure of the rivet, Terai Konosuke opened his laptop and started searching.

After a while of operation, he made a sound of excitement.

"found it!"

Terai Konosuke turned the computer to the bar. This is the introduction page of a company called Shinsegae Corporation, abbreviated as NMI.

New World Corporation (NMI) is the world's top infrastructure materials, facilities design and construction company, also involved in the field of electronic technology, with strong technology research and development capabilities.

The company's original headquarters was in the United States. After the new heir took control of the company, it moved its headquarters to Europe and was still engaged in infrastructure and high-tech development.

And the current controller of this company is called Edward Chandler.

Seeing this somewhat forgotten name, but remembered now, Qin Zhibo was taken aback.

This is exactly his real name that I found out after my first contact with Spider.

Spider's real name is Edward Chandler.

Qin Zhibo swallowed the hamburger in his mouth, thinking about the information he had obtained so far.

Spider has three tiers of identities, namely:

The world's first illusionist - Günter von Goldberg II

The world's top killer - Spider
New World Corporation Controller - Edward Chandler

The three names correspond to three completely different identities, no wonder even the white horse detective has never been able to figure out his details.

If this is Spider's company, it is not difficult to understand why the high imitation Kidd has a hang glider.

"This is Spider's company, the hang glider should be made by them to deal with you"

Qin Zhibo told Kuroba Kaito and Terai what he knew, and they were both surprised.

It is unimaginable that a single killer has a huge company operating across continents, and the power of the entire zoo organization is even more unimaginable.

Kuroba Kaito's original idea was to destroy the Pandora's Stone after he got it, so that the dream of the boss behind the organization would come to naught.

But now it seems that this idea is too naive, without any consideration of the consequences of doing so.

Fighting against such a behemoth does require more careful planning.
After eating and drinking, Qin Zhibo and Heiyu Kaito discussed the next course of action.

First, create the illusion that Pandora's Stone has not been found.The songs are sung, the dances are still danced, the gems continue to be stolen, and everything is the same as before.

Secondly, find a way to find "Pickman", he is probably the clue person left by Black Feather Pirate One.

In the end, to unite all the forces that can be united, it is still too weak to rely on Kaitou Kidd, the big IP, and Terai and Qin Zhibo.

As for the people who can join forces, Qin Zhibo provided some candidates.

For example, White Horse Detective, who has been chasing Spider, is even more interested in Spider than Kaito Kidd, and has an official background.

And Koizumi Hongzi, Pandora's Stone is obviously something on the magic side, the old man said that only magic can defeat magic.

Kuroba Kaito: "Which father? Is it Father Terai?"

Konosuke Terai looked confused, when did I say such a thing?
Qin Zhibo: "Don't worry about which daddy it is, it's daddy who said it anyway."

Kuroba Kaito: "."

Speaking of Koizumi Koko, Kuroba Kaito remembered that when he first sent a notice letter to steal "Crimson Tears", Koizumi Koko reminded himself intentionally or unintentionally.

"It is a 'demon stone' that spells doom and disaster to all who try to get it."

Did Koizumi Hongko know that it was Pandora's stone from the beginning?

The answer is by my side?
The next day, Asahi woke up from the bed.

There is a soft Simmons mattress under my body, and I look around. Although it is an unfamiliar environment, it looks like a hotel room, and the clock on the wall is precisely at 9:10.

Why am I here?
Seems like something happened last night, helping Miss Judy get the gems back from the bad guys, and...
Chengshi was frowning, trying to recall what happened last night, when he suddenly saw a torn black and purple long dress and some underwear on the chair beside him.

Cheng Shi looked shocked, and quickly lowered his head and pulled off his collar to check his body.

Although the outside was wrapped in a nightgown, the inside was basically stripped naked.

Who changed my clothes here?
click.

At this time, the door lock of the room rang, and Qin Zhibo walked in.

Seeing Ma Chengshi sitting on the bed awake, Qin Zhibo said hello.

"Good morning."

"Good morning."

Qin Zhibo put some convenience store bags on the table, took out rice balls, sandwiches, oden and other food from them, and said: "The breakfast service in the hotel restaurant has ended, I guess you will be very hungry after waking up, so go outside to buy Got something to eat."

When Qin Zhibo said this, Cheng Shi really felt that his stomach was abnormally empty.

Yesterday's dinner will be messed up, and I won't have a chance to eat afterwards, so I will naturally be hungry.

After arranging all the food, Qin Zhibo went to the window of the room and opened the curtains.

"It's been raining since midnight last night, and my convertible can't go, so I didn't wake you up, plus you might need a good rest."

"Besides, today seems to be Sunday. It's okay for your hospital to open later, right?"

Qin Zhibo cleaned up the room methodically, explaining why he didn't wake himself up.

But there is only one thing that really matters.

"Is that... the clothes that Mr. Qin changed for me?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Qin Zhibo replied very simply.

"No"

really.

Cheng Shi lowered his head, a wry smile rose from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were three parts self-deprecating and seven parts inferior.

The fact that Qin Zhibo changed clothes for himself to such an extent showed that he never regarded himself as an inconvenient object to change clothes for.

Although I may be wishful thinking, but if possible, I don't want to imagine what I am now.

If you can choose your gender again
Qin Zhibo didn't notice the change in Chengshi's mood, but recalled the conversation with Judy Hooper just now.

In addition to going to the convenience store to buy food, he also went to find Judy Hooper and explained some things.

To hide the existence of Pandora's Stone, Judy Hooper is also a very important part.

So Qin Zhibo told her again, don't tell anyone about the red light of the gemstone last night, otherwise those bad guys will come to snatch the gemstone again, and the thaumaturgy troupe will be in danger again.

But in order not to show any abnormalities, the thaumaturgy troupe had to perform as usual, and there was no need to do any extra protection for the gemstones.

As long as the Beast Brotherhood saw Judy Hopper's reaction in this way, they would think that this "Crimson Tears" was not the gem they were looking for.

To this, Judy Hooper agreed.

It was a risky move, but it was the only way to avoid the Brotherhood of the Beast for now.

Hopefully all goes well until the return of Great Halley's Comet.
After Chengshi finished his breakfast, the two watched TV for a while in the hotel room.

Until around 10 in the morning, the pattering rain finally stopped, and the gray sky cleared up.

Qin Zhibo drove a convertible car and returned to Mihua Town with Chengshi.

Send Chengshi back to his hospital first. Although ordinary private hospitals can choose not to open on Sundays, Chengshi is more hardworking. Nurses in Shioya have a holiday on Sundays, but he, a doctor, does not rest.

Qin Zhibo watched Chengshi go back to the hospital, and then looked at his sunken convertible, wondering when Toru Amuro would come back.

The last time I told him that I wanted to change the car and refit the new car, it was Qin Zhibo's sincerity.

It's a pity that after solving the bomb case, Toru Amuro disappeared again. Maybe he continued to look for Shuichi Akai?

When I discussed the "re-employment" with Akai Shuichi last time, I forgot to tell him about it.

However, at the level of the FBI, he should be able to detect that a Japanese policeman is following him.

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to leave, Cheng Shi suddenly ran out of the hospital.

"Mr. Qin, wait a minute!"

After changing into normal clothes, he ran out anxiously, "Dr. A Li left a message on the phone saying that Xiao Ai is sick, and the condition is a little serious. Let me go to his house to have a look if I have time."

Since Dr. A Li went to the United States and handed Hui Yuan Ai over to Cheng Shi to take care of her for a period of time, he has attached great importance to Hui Yuan Ai, which can be regarded as making up for his feelings for his biological sister.

"Then I'll drive you to Dr. Ali."

"Well, wait a minute, I'll go back and get some things."

Cheng Shi went back to search for a while, and when he came out again, he had an extra medicine box in his hand, and got into Qin Zhibo's car.

Chengshi Hospital is not far from Dr. Ali's house, and it takes only 2 minutes to drive. The two soon arrived at Dr. Ali's house.

But after ringing the doorbell several times in a row, no one answered at home.

"not at home?"

Qin Zhibo reasoned for a while, and guessed: "Should I go to another hospital? After all, children can't stay sick forever. I'll call and ask."

Qin Zhibo called Dr. Ali, but no one answered.

"Strange, no one answered the phone?"

"Are you already in the hospital?"

Qin Zhibo thought for a while, and felt that Conan should be indispensable at this time, so he took out Kogoro Mori's business card and dialed the number on it.

Fortunately, Kogoro Mori was able to get through on the phone. After asking, I found out that Conan went to Dr. Ali's house to play early in the morning.

That is to say, Conan, Dr. Ari, and Haibara Ai should be together.

And since Conan followed, and Dr. A Li's phone was not answered, the probability of an accident is very high.

Qin Zhibo made another phone call to police officer Mu Mu, and he got the most accurate information.

"You said Conan and Dr. Ali, they are indeed here with me."

"Yeah? How did you know there was a homicide?"

"The address is the underground parking lot of Dongdu Department Store in Kubado Town, brother, are you coming over?"

After obtaining the exact address by Ke Xue, Qin Zhibo called Ma Shengshi into the car and went straight to Beihu Town.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Dongdu Department Store in Beihu Town.

At the exit of the underground parking lot, the police have set up a cordon to prevent vehicles from entering and exiting.

Qin Zhibo successfully led Chengshi into the underground parking lot by brushing his face, and went straight to the scene of the murder.

Beside Mu Mu, Qin Zhibo saw the familiar pattern of choosing one from three, and three people who looked like suspects were being questioned by Mu Mu.

And Conan was standing beside him, holding his small head, concentrating on something.

Seeing Conan, Aso rushed forward, bent down quickly and asked, "Conan, where is Xiao Ai now?"

And Conan, who was thinking about the case, was also shocked when he saw that Ma Sheng was really shocked. They were still looking for doctors all over the world. Why did the doctor come here on his own initiative?
He didn't understand what was going on until he saw Qin Zhibo next to him.

This man was so timely that Haibara needed treatment just in time.

"Haihara should be in the car with Dr. Ari."

Conan took Chengshi to find Dr. Ali's little yellow car, and stretched his head to the window, only to find that the person was gone.

Only Dr. Ali's phone was left alone on the seat.

"what happened?"

"Why are Huiyuan and the doctor missing!"

Shocked, Conan's pupils dilated. He clearly told Dr. A Li not to walk around and attract attention before he solved the case.

A while ago, I found out that some people were following them, what if those are people from the organization!
At the same time, Qin Zhibo, who was preparing to learn more about the case at the police officer's side, suddenly saw a very unique car in the underground parking lot.

That's a Porsche 356A.
