"No, I don't think so."

Kurosawa retorted earnestly.

Conan, as usual, ignored that statement and continued.

"The most important thing now is how to solve the case and get the disk without arousing suspicion!"

Ai Haibara poured cold water on him.

"Don't even think about any of that."

"Leave the case-solving to the police."

"As for the hard drive, as I just said, everything inside is gone, so there's no point in getting it back."

"Instead of risking exposure to take a useless disk, let Bourbon take it."

"After Bourbon got the disk and left."

"Then we can leave smoothly."

Ai Haibara offered the safest approach.

"So, we might as well wait here until this is all over before we go out."

"No, I think we still need to go back and take a look."

"What, still thinking about solving the case?"

Ai Haibara said with a hint of sarcasm.

Conan shook his head.

That's not what he meant.

only……

"The police know why we're here."

"Although the possibility is very small, it's possible that Bourbon went to the police to ask."

"We could very well be exposed!"

Upon hearing this, Ai Haibara fell silent.

Conan is right.

But as a member of the organization.

Would Bourbon initiate a conversation with the police?

As it turns out, he really did.

Amuro Tooru had already approached a junior police officer.

He asked quite naturally.

Has anyone touched this computer before?

The young police officer paused for a moment upon hearing this, and then, subconsciously, he answered.

"Someone has touched it."

"who is it?"

Amuro Tooru continued to press for answers.

Just as the officer was about to continue answering, Yokomizo Sango noticed this.

He immediately spoke up.

"Hey, Mr. Amuro over there?"

"Please don't bother us; we can't disclose anything related to the scene!"

Yokomizo looked serious.

Amuro Tooru remained calm upon hearing this, and casually took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Yokomizo Kengo.

"Actually, I'm also a private investigator, and I might be able to help with this case."

"detective?"

Isn't this guy an insurance salesman?

Yokomizo Sango took the business card, glanced at it, and said with some doubt.

"In that case, what are your thoughts on this case?"

Amuro Tooru nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He noticed many details while searching for the disk.

Although the culprit has not yet been identified, it should be enough to deal with Yokomizo Sango.

Amuro Tooru then said.

"First of all, judging from the traces at the scene, this case is a locked-room murder!"

"To find the murderer, we can start by examining the methods he used to create the locked room."

Yokomizo nodded, signaling him to continue.

"Although the scene was chaotic, there was one thing that was still very strange."

Amuro Tooru looked at the landline phone lying on the ground.

he asked.

Was this phone like this from the beginning?

Yokomizo Sango was momentarily stunned by Amuro Tooru's sudden change of topic.

But he still nodded.

"Yes."

Amuro Toru heard this.

"That's weird."

"If the landline phone had fallen to the ground by itself, the microphone wouldn't have been able to sit securely on it."

"So, this was deliberately arranged by the murderer."

"There might be some clues left on this landline."

"You can examine it carefully."

"Check if there are any fingerprints or anything left by the murderer on it."

Yokomizo thought it made sense and immediately asked the police officer next to him to do an inspection.

Amuro Tooru then asked.

"So, who touched that computer?"

Amuro Tooru was still asking the same young police officer from the beginning.

The officer glanced at Yokomizo Sango and, seeing that he didn't intend to stop him, then answered.

"It's a little girl."

"Oh, it's her!"

The officer pointed to Ai Haibara, who had just returned with Kurosawa and the others.

Amuro Tooru also looked over.

Although Ai Haibara didn't know what had just happened, she instinctively hid behind Kurosawa when she met Tooru Amuro's gaze.

Amuro Tooru looked somewhat helpless.

"Little sister, I'm not that scary, am I?"

He said it jokingly.

Then, he walked up to Kurosawa, squatted down, looked at Ai Haibara, and asked.

"Little sister, what did you do on the computer?"

Ai Haibara shuddered, her mind going completely blank.

Seeing this, Conan suddenly spoke up.

"What? Haibara, you were playing on the computer?"

"I want to play too!"

"Computer, computer, yay!"

As Conan spoke, he headed towards the computer.

"Eh? Wait a minute..."

Conan's actions were too sudden, and Amuro Tooru quickly got up to try to stop the boy.

Kurosawa took the opportunity to shield Ai Haibara.

As I said before, it wouldn't be good to be scared out of your wits.

it is good!

Seeing this, Conan silently clenched his fist.

First, lure Bourbon away a distance!

Unfortunately, a hand stopped him.

Conan paused for a moment, looked up, and saw that it was the woman who had been following Bourbon.

"It was the woman," said Asagi.

"Kids, you can't play with the things at the crime scene."

Asano's tone was very gentle.

Conan, however, was not comforted.
