Chapter 132 Pisco, Batman's ATM

After Daisuke Torakura's death, the fierce blizzard finally began to subside.

As if they were delighted by his death, even the clouds that had been obscuring the moon in the sky dispersed.

Several hours later.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police cars hurriedly arrived at Dracula's villa, braving the snow-covered roads.

Inspector Megure, who was leading the way, got out of the car trembling; he looked unusually young.

—He's almost frozen solid.

Looking at the somewhat eerie Western villa in front of me.

Inspector Megure's body trembled again.

Why does this place look so eerie?

Brother Maoli and Brother Chen En were both there. Could it be that the yin energy was too heavy, and a few vampires were about to spawn on the spot to enhance the atmosphere of this villa?

He exchanged a glance with Takagi Wataru beside him, and finally gritted his teeth and took the lead into the villa.

Fight!

I, Megure, am willing to fight to the death; how dare any vampire dar to challenge me?
------

"Oh, you mean, Daisuke Torakura was nailed to death while dressed as a vampire?"

"I thought Daisuke Torakura was really a vampire. Where's the murderer? Has the murderer been found? Huh? Turned in?"

Inspector Megure overheard Chen En recounting the details of the case in the living room.

His eyes widened immediately.

In all his years working in Beika Town, this was the first time he had ever seen a Beika Town resident turn himself in after committing murder.

This is truly the first time!

Could he be taking the blame for someone else? No, according to other witnesses, it seems that only Chen En and Tadokoro Shunsuke were at the crime scene. If Tadokoro Shunsuke is taking the blame for someone else, then doesn't that mean Chen En is the murderer?

Let's not think in that direction.

Batman seems to have a no-kill policy, right? I wonder if vampires fall under that policy.

"Who is the murderer who turned himself in?"

"Oh, Mr. Tadokoro Shunsuke? Excuse me, did you recently move to Beika Town from another city?"

Shunsuke Tadokoro: ?
No, I turned myself in, and I'm the only suspect.

You don't ask about the details of the case, but you ask me if I'm a local of Beika Town? What necessary connection is there between whether I'm a local of Beika Town and whether I'll turn myself in after committing murder?
Why does Inspector Megure seem a bit out of place for this profession?
Takagi Wataru was taking notes beside him.

The forensic officers who followed them entered Daisuke Torakura's room to take photos of the body and collect samples of the surrounding items as evidence. Fumio Doi, who was standing next to him, became increasingly panicked as he watched.

That is, until the police officers on the other side got their hands on the briefcase full of documents.

Fumio Doi immediately said,

"Wait a minute, that briefcase is mine. It contains the newspaper article that's about to be published, and it's the only one. So... could you give it back to me?"

Fumio Doi felt uneasy.

The two forensic officers standing nearby exchanged a glance, their expressions questioning.

You admit this bag is yours? You were also in the deceased's room?

The forensic officer picked up the briefcase and glanced at its contents.

Just as he thought there was nothing special about it and was about to return it, Hamura Shuichi suddenly said,
"Officer, if I remember correctly, multiple thefts should be considered a criminal offense."

"Although it doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of your First Investigation Division regarding rapist offenses, it's still a criminal act. If you want to report it, could you please take the perpetrator back to the Metropolitan Police Department and have the officers from the Second Investigation Division handle it?"

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigation Division is primarily responsible for violent crimes. Inspector Megure is an inspector belonging to the Violent Crime Investigation Section 3 of the First Investigation Division, while the Second Investigation Division is responsible for cybercrimes.

The most prominent example is Inspector Nakamori Ginzo of the Second Investigation Division's Intelligence Crime Investigation Unit. When Hamura Shuichi said this, he was clearly planning to deliver a fatal blow to Doi Fumio, sending him and Torakura Daisuke down the aisle with all the manuscripts he had stolen and swindled over the years.

One goes to prison, the other to hell—they complement each other perfectly!
Upon hearing this, Fumio Doi's eyes widened in surprise.

He never expected that Shuichi Hamura would betray him at this moment. Even though Shuichi Hamura was invited to visit Dracula's villa, and was invited in his name to discuss the plot with Daisuke Torakura!
—In fact, Shuichi Hamura hated Daisuke Torakura just as much.

He and Torakura Etsuko were childhood sweethearts and were about to get married when Torakura Daisuke interfered, setting a trap for Torakura Etsuko's company and then swindling her out of all her shares, forcing her to marry him.

If it weren't for the extraordinary person Fumio Doi constantly providing Daisuke Torakura with various manuscripts that could be copied and stolen,

Daisuke Torakura's royalties were no longer enough to support him, let alone set up a scheme for Etsuko Torakura's family company to coerce her into marrying him!
If it weren't for the fact that Tadokoro Shunsuke's crime of killing Torakura Daisuke was so clearly seen...

Even Shuichi Hamura would say a few words of support for Shunsuke Tadokoro. As long as Shunsuke Tadokoro didn't pin the murder on him and Etsuko Torakura, the two of them would pretend they didn't know that Shunsuke Tadokoro was the one who killed the person!

I didn't feel sad for a moment about Tadokoro Shunsuke being handcuffed and taken away.

The person who was taken into the police car the next moment was Fumio Doi.

------

He watched as Fumio Doi, who had failed in his attempt to steal a chicken, got into the car.

Chen En casually reminded the forensic officer next to him to copy the documents from Torakura Daisuke's computer and compare them with the manuscripts in Doi Fumio's briefcase to see the similarity.

As for whether doing this is inappropriate?
Etsuko Torakura, as the widow, agreed. Unless Daisuke Torakura jumped up and said he disagreed, no one else could change his mind!

[Easy-difficulty security mission completed!]

[Your 20 points reward has been credited to your account. Please check!]

[You've been awarded 10 points for helping Sheriff Gordon solve a difficult problem!]

After the two security missions were completed.

Chen En's total points have returned to sixty.

His goal of reaching 1,000 points still seemed a long way off.

However, Chen En already had some ideas on how to obtain the points in the future.

—He remembered that the Black Organization had a guy codenamed Pisco who ran a company in Tokyo, right?

Hey, I'll go back and open up Pisco's company to see if there's any business dealings involved.

Find a member of the black-clad organization you don't like, put him in a sack, beat him up, and then hand him over to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Then wouldn't it be worth at least 75 points?
Chen En vaguely remembered that Pisco was a veteran of the Black Organization.

He must have had many business dealings with other members of the Black Organization in Tokyo.

What about the Black Organization's investigation?
Let them investigate the mole themselves!

"...What are you thinking about?"

Conan looked up at Chen En and asked in a low voice,
"Was it possible that Tadokoro Shunsuke didn't actually want to turn himself in at first?"

"He only turned himself in after you persuaded him?"

During the few minutes the room door was closed.

Nobody knows what happened inside.

However, Conan already had a good idea of ​​what was going on, which is why he asked that question.

How did you know this case would happen?

Chen En gave him a strange look, then replied.
"Because, I'm batman!"

Conan:?
What does this mean? Was it triggered in the underlying code?
