Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

Looking at the way Ginzo Nakamori was giving orders, Inspector Megure touched his chin and said with some emotion.

"I have to say, Nakamori-kun is quite formidable when he gets serious."

Kogoro Mouri, who was standing next to Inspector Megure, turned his head to look at Inspector Megure, with some suspicion in his eyes.

Let’s not talk about why Inspector Megure calls everyone “brother”, just the fact that Nakamori Ginzo is very powerful when he is serious is already quite outrageous... although I have only had a few contacts with Nakamori Ginzo.

But Kogoro Mori, who claims to be a former elite police officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, has a thorough understanding of Ginzo Nakamori.

This guy is no match for Kaito Kid at all. Last time, he even fell into the ditch with him in the hotel. If it weren't for the fact that Ginzo Nakamori's obsession with Kaito Kid didn't seem fake, he would have suspected that these two people had colluded with each other.

For example, Kaito Kid deliberately revealed his whereabouts to Ginzo Nakamori, asking Ginzo Nakamori to come and catch him.

"Inspector Megure, I'm telling you, when exactly was this guy transferred here?"

The sleeping detective turned his head to look at Nakamori Ginzo who was giving orders everywhere, with a hint of inquiry in his tone.

"Ah, Nakamori-kun was transferred here after you, Maori-kun, left."

Inspector Megure said with a smile and began to explain.

"Nakamori used to be a captain at the Hong Kong Police Department. Because of his outstanding performance in dealing with Kaito Kidd, he was later transferred to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. I had a few conflicts with Nakamori back then, but our relationship gradually improved."

"Actually, apart from Nakamori-san's inexplicable obsession with Kaito Kid, he's still a pretty good inspector."

————I feel like it’s not as good as when I was still working at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

The corners of Kogoro Mouri's mouth twitched.

Also, what is the Port Police Department? Isn't it a shipping department? Why would a captain from the shipping department go after Kaito Kid? And why was he even transferred to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department as a captain because of his outstanding performance?

He had a lot of things he wanted to say, but in the end he didn't say them. He just sighed and shrugged.

Just when Kogoro Mouri was about to go over to see if Conan, the kid, had been silent for such a long time and was doing something with his group of idea-filled friends, Inspector Megure suddenly thought of something and asked curiously.

"By the way, Maori-kun, you still remember Kudo-kun, right?"

Kogoro Mouri looked back at Inspector Megure, and three black question marks were visible on his head.

You put these two terms "older brother" together. How can I tell if the "Kudo younger brother" you're referring to is Yusaku Kudo or Shinichi Kudo? If it's Yusaku Kudo, why mention him with Ginzo Nakamori? If it's Shinichi Kudo, why mention "older brother"?

Why did my daughter Xiaolan's generation go down one generation directly?

Noticing the slip of the tongue, Inspector Megure laughed it off, then spoke.

"Did you know? Brother Nakamori also has a daughter, and she's about the same age as Xiaolan."

"There was a shooting in the Jianggutian area near the Silver Fox robbery. At that time, Brother Nakamori asked me outside if his daughter was involved in the incident. I told him no."

"Later, Brother Nakamori invited me to his home. His daughter's childhood sweetheart was there too—"

Inspector Megure kept the question in suspense before speaking.

"His daughter's childhood sweetheart actually looks exactly like Kudo-sama... Kudo Shinichi!"

"I mistook him for someone else. It wasn't until he said his name was Kuroba Kaito that I realized they weren't the same person. Isn't that strange, Maori? How can there be two people in this world who are exactly the same but not related by blood?"

————A childhood sweetheart who looks exactly like that brat Shinichi?

Kogoro Mouri touched his chin and felt even more unhappy.

Speaking of which, Nakamori Ginzo looks a lot like him, has a similar status, and has a similar family situation... Oh, Nakamori Ginzo's wife not only doesn't live with Nakamori Ginzo, but they are also a model couple, so that's fine...

But there's an inexplicable feeling that makes people even more uncomfortable...

The sleeping detective narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This Kuroba Kaito looks exactly like that Shinichi kid. There's definitely something fishy going on. This is my intuition as the famous detective, Maori Kogoro... I'll investigate thoroughly when I get back, Inspector Megure. I'll also send you the results of my investigation when the time comes..."

The conversation suddenly stopped at this moment, for no other reason than that gunshots were heard outside the Hakodate Police Headquarters.

Inspector Megure, Takagi Wataru, Shiratori Jinsaburo, and Mori Kogoro almost simultaneously turned their heads to look in the direction of the gate of Hakodate Police Headquarters. Their qualities as criminal police officers made them realize that something was wrong.

————It is true that Hakodate is not peaceful tonight, with many shootings.

But those shooters were so bold that they dared to come to Hakodate Police Headquarters and open fire when the police had already clearly dispatched the mobile team to maintain public order?!

How dare they do that? Is it because the mobile team's military strength is insufficient and they have to borrow from the Republic of Korea next door?

"What did you say? A shooter who included police officers in his shooting range?"

Ginzo Nakamori raised the walkie-talkie and his face instantly turned gloomy.

Although he was not a criminal police officer like Kogoro Mouri and others, and did not have rich experience in handling similar incidents, he was an experienced police officer after all, and he still sensed that something was wrong at this time.

As soon as the chief of Hakodate Police Headquarters was rejected, someone attacked Hakodate Police Headquarters.

There is no connection between the two. Even if you tell the five ordinary elementary school students over there, they may not believe it. What's more, he is the only rival in the entire Tokyo and Hokkaido regions who can be on par with Kaito Kid?

"Are you still asking me what to do? Fight back. Do I even need to ask you for advice?"

Inspector Nakamori was furious and gave orders loudly.

Afterwards, he gestured to some police officers, indicating that they should stay at the Hakodate Police Headquarters to protect Suzuki Sonoko and others, and then he personally led people to the shooting scene, ready to teach those guys a lesson.

On the way, he took out his cell phone and called the White Horse Police Chief to explain the situation.

Chapter 373 The Art of Fanning the Flame.JPG (5/5)

Tokyo City, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

It was already late at night, and most of the police officers had already gone home after get off work, leaving only a few officers on night shift still inside the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. A few lights could be seen coming on in the building.

But if someone who knows the internal structure of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department comes and looks up, they will be extremely surprised.

The reason was simple: the lights in the office of the Chief Superintendent on the top floor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department were still on.

As the Chief Superintendent of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the highest-ranking police officer in the entire department, Chief Superintendent Hakuba would have gone home from get off work to enjoy his wonderful life at this time of the year. However, he has not left the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department yet, just for one reason.

————That was the mass shooting that occurred in Hakodate.

Superintendent Baima's face was a little gloomy.

Just now, Nakamori Ginzo had called him and explained the situation they encountered in the Hakodate area, and explained that he had begun to use firearms to fight back.

He does not think that what Ginzo Nakamori did was wrong.

Because from the moment other people opened fire on the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department police officers, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department had already been involved in the local security incident in Hakodate. Whether they fired back or not, they could not stay out of it. It was better to fire back to reduce casualties.

But the way this happened was strange and it happened at the perfect time.

It was as if the chief of the Hakodate Police Headquarters had deliberately sent people to attack the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers and dragged them into the dispute after he refused to allow them to get involved in a local security incident in Hakodate.

————There is no doubt that the Chief of Hakodate Police Headquarters is capable of doing such a thing.

After all, the collusion between the black and white in that place has become quite famous along with the brutal expansion of the Fujiang Zaibatsu. If the Internet had not been underdeveloped, I am afraid that all the forums would have been filled with verbal attacks on the Fujiang Zaibatsu and the citizens of Hakodate.

"It's probably not a safe bet to let Inspector Nakamori handle this matter alone. He's too impulsive."

"It just so happens that Inspector Megure is traveling in Hokkaido. This time, we'll let him down and urgently adjust his vacation so that he can participate in this operation..."

Superintendent Baiba tapped his fingers lightly on the table, thinking about the next solution.

At this moment, a message from an overseas IP popped up on the phone.

【Explorer: Got it. I'll keep an eye on it.】

As soon as the incident happened, Superintendent Hakuba chose to inform his son, Inspector Hakuba, of the specific situation. Now Inspector Hakuba has just replied to the text message. He must have just learned about the situation in Hakodate and is preparing to negotiate directly with the people there.

In this regard, Superintendent Hakuba felt a little embarrassed.

After all, Hakuba Tan had just told him to keep an eye on Nakamori Ginzo to prevent anything from happening to him, and then something happened to Nakamori Ginzo right after. Furthermore, the other party had just helped with a case for over a week, had just returned to school, and now he was asked to help again...

Forget it, those who are capable should do more work. It's better to use your own son than to use him to fight terrorists.

"But, for what reason did that guy dare to take action at this time?"

Superintendent Baima's thoughts turned for a moment, then back again.

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, thinking that Suzuki Sonoko was still at the Hakodate Police Headquarters, and theoretically within the protection range of Nakamori Ginzo. An attack on Nakamori Ginzo's police officers would be equivalent to an attempt to attack Suzuki Sonoko.

Is the chief of Hakodate Police Headquarters crazy that he dared to take action when Suzuki Sonoko was around?

However, the other party's foolish behavior actually brought him an ally that could put pressure on the Hakodate Police Headquarters and teach them a lesson.

I believe that the Suzuki Group will definitely not sit idly by and watch this matter.

Superintendent Hakuba placed his finger on the landline phone in the Superintendent's office and entered Suzuki Shiro's phone number. Then he lifted the receiver and put it to his ear, waiting for the other party to answer the call.

Ding, ding, ding.

The incoming letter alert sounded in the inner room of Suzuki Manor.

Shiro Suzuki, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the incoming call alert tone of this specially marked phone. He got up in a daze, leaned on the bedrail, fumbled to pick up the phone, pressed the answer button, and put it to his ear.

"My name is Suzuki Shiro. Excuse me...what happened?"

"Director Suzuki, I have to tell you something."

The White Horse Police Chief's voice was serious.

"While your daughter was under protection at the Hakodate Police Headquarters, a group of people attacked the security officers assigned by Inspector Nakamori to protect your daughter. However, despite this, you can still rest assured."

"The officers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will fight to the end to protect your daughter."

————Are you saying something else?

Suzuki Shiro was frightened by the news and became much more sober.

He pressed the hands-free button, and the voice of Superintendent Hakuba echoed inside the room. Even Suzuki Tomoko, who was lying next to him, sat up in confusion, tilted her head, and stared at the phone in Suzuki Shiro's hand.

"Superintendent Hakuba, are you saying...that the officers at Hakodate Police Headquarters just sat back and did nothing about this?"

Without caring about the previous politeness, Suzuki Shiro suppressed his anger and asked.

————Since Superintendent Hakuba pointed out that the group of people came specifically to attack Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers, not Hakodate Police Headquarters, and said that Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers would protect Sonoko, he did not mention the Hakodate police officers at all.

This is clearly a veiled allusion to the fact that the attack on Sonoko was orchestrated by people from the Hakodate Police Headquarters.

"No, no, no, I have absolutely no such intention."

Superintendent Hakuba quickly denied it and said with a sigh.

"I guess it's because of the chaos in Hakodate that the remaining police officers at Hakodate Police Headquarters have to stay at the alarm center at all times to prevent them from missing other alarm calls and affecting the first response time?"

So that group of people would rather huddle together and answer the phone than protect the garden right in the hall?
