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

Buzz——————

The car drove past Ran Mouri and Conan.

Conan's attention also shifted from Ran Mouri to the house in front of him.

He felt that the house looked very familiar, as if he had been there before.

Noticing Conan's gaze towards the house, Mao Li Ran said with some nostalgia.

"Shinichi and I used to pass by here often when we were little."

"I remember that Mr. Sakaguchi had a very cute puppy named John. He used to be very close to me and Shinichi... but I haven't seen Mr. Sakaguchi and John in the past few days."

"I don't know where Mr. Sakaguchi went."

...Mr. Sakaguchi? Masayoshi Sakaguchi?

The name of the owner of this place appeared in Conan's mind.

He also remembered the cute little dog John, but he remembered that the dog seemed to have grown up, becoming very big and majestic, like a large dog that could bite people to death.

Then, Conan suddenly froze.

They were there before, but disappeared in the past few days?

Could Masayoshi Sakaguchi, the renowned juvenile defense lawyer, have any connection to the half-human, half-ghost urban legend? Why did he disappear during this time?

"I remember that Mr. Sakaguchi once had a child, but he died because of school bullying."

"Later, Mr. Sakaguchi forgave the bully. Then, about a month ago, the bully, now an adult, quietly disappeared one day..."

Conan whispered.

No way? That's some half-human, half-ghost urban legend?

Could it be that... the base of that urban legend is actually near the Mori Office?

Chapter 52: Huiyuan Ai: Kudo Shinichi saved Vermouth? !

Dr. Agasa's car stopped outside the door of Dr. Agasa's laboratory.

After the vehicle came to a complete stop, Haibara Ai got out before Dr. Agasa.

She put the floppy disk containing the Black Organization's intelligence in her pocket, then quickly walked to the door of Dr. Agasa's laboratory. After taking a deep breath, she did not put the door key into the keyhole, but directly pushed the door handle.

crunch————

Just as Haibara Ai expected, the door of the laboratory opened directly.

Dr. Agasa, who had just taken out the car keys and got out, was shocked when he saw this scene.

It’s bad, the laboratory was attacked by Yan Shuangying!

He took two steps at a time and came to Haibara Ai's side, looking into the living room.

I saw that the originally bright laboratory living room was now dim, and the windows that should have revealed some sunset sunlight were now all blocked by curtains, not letting in any light.

A black figure was standing in the middle of the living room with his back to the door.

However, that figure exuded an inexplicable threatening aura, as if he could easily kill the two people who were currently watching him——

He can indeed do it.

Ai Haibara and Dr. Agasa also knew that he could do it.

This was because this figure was the culprit who had committed several shocking crimes in just one week.

The man known as "half-human, half-ghost, the best with a sharpshooter"!

"...Um, can I ask why you don't turn on the light?"

Dr. Agasa swallowed, blinked, and looked a little nervous.

But in the end, he couldn't help but ask.

"In this dim environment, wearing sunglasses without turning on the lights, what's wrong with your eyes?"

There is an urban legend that says people kill without blinking, and you actually ask him if his eyes are dry?

At this moment, Haibara Ai couldn't help but be surprised by Dr. Agasa's courage.

What surprised Huiyuan Ai even more was that the urban legend that Professor Agasa asked about was not only not angry at this moment, but even responded humorously——

"Don't be a spoiler, otherwise, you'll make the atmosphere awkward."

Snap————

With the sound of the light switch being pressed, the entire Dr. Agasa's laboratory suddenly lit up.

But the urban legend just stood there and didn't walk to the door, and Professor Agasa and Haibara Ai didn't reach out to turn on the light. So, how was the light switch pressed?

Haibara Ai's gaze suddenly became more serious.

Because, she saw a small suction dart on the light switch.

This type of suction dart is usually a prop used by children when playing dart games. It does not have a sharp arrow at the front, but a suction cup. Generally speaking, this type of suction dart cannot fly fast or far because of the suction cup at the front.

But such a safe suction dart appeared silently on the light switch.

Haibara Ai kept looking at the urban legend, but she didn't even see when the other party raised his hand to throw the suction dart, and when he put his hand down - what if the other party didn't use the suction dart for fun, but used a throwing knife?

Are the urban legend's flying knives faster, more accurate, silent, and more deadly than suction darts?

If Gin is the small hexagon in the organization, then this urban legend is simply a circle that exceeds the scope of the six-dimensional diagram! Haibara Ai can't sense any shortcomings in this person!

"Shirley, I'm here to get the floppy disk you and Kudo Shinichi were talking about."

The voice of urban legend is calm and indifferent.

It was as if the person who had just spoken to Dr. Agasa was not him.

Dr. Agasa was a little disappointed about this.

Just now, he even had the illusion that the urban legend of Beika Town was actually a very gentle person.

But now it seems that illusions are just illusions after all and should not be taken seriously.

"Here's the floppy disk. However, before I give it to you... I want to confirm something with you."

Ai Haibara took out the floppy disk left by her sister Akemi Miyano from her pocket.

She grabbed the corner of the floppy disk and then asked.

"Kudo Shinichi told me before that you once told him that Vermouth would not do anything to hurt him and Mao Lilan."

"Can you tell me why? Why won't Vermouth hurt Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan?"

"Could it be that Vermouth is really a mole planted by the International Criminal Organization?"

Is Vermouth a mole planted by the International Criminal Organization within the Black Organization?

So there is such a saying——how did you come up with it?

Nara Hikaru's eagle eyes hidden behind his sunglasses narrowed slightly.

If he takes off his sunglasses, this expression alone is enough to make people feel the bone-chilling cold.

He simply replied.

"You can go back and ask Kudo Shinichi if he and Mao Lilan have ever saved a murderer's life."

"That murderer was actually Vermouth in disguise. After being cornered by Rye Whiskey, she was rescued by Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi. The reason she wouldn't do anything to hurt Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi was because of this life-saving grace."

...Save, save your life? Kudo Shinichi and Vermouth?!

"Kudo Shinichi saved Vermouth?!"

"Why would he save Vermouth, who was disguised as a murderer?"

The pitch of Haibara Ai's voice rose directly as her emotions changed.

She could not understand what kind of logic Kudo Shinichi had in saving Vermouth!

Hasn't Kudo Shinichi ever heard the saying "Goodness without distinction between good and evil is the accomplice of evil"?

Even if Kudo Shinichi didn't know who Vermouth was at the time, there was no need for him to save the murderer Vermouth was disguising as, right?! Wasn't that detective a bit too compassionate?!

Would Holmes save someone and then just leave him alone after knowing clearly that the other person is a murderer?

"You should ask Kudo Shinichi, not me."

The indifferent voice of Urban Legend quickly calmed down Haibara Ai's agitated emotions.

She just took a deep breath and then handed the floppy disk in her hand to Nara Hikaru.

Finally said.

"The floppy disk contains information about the organization's base layout in the Tokyo area. I'm not sure if it's authentic."

"That's not... the information left behind. The source is unknown. If you want to search for the organization's base based on the base information on the floppy disk, then I think you must——"

It only took a blink of an eye.

The figure of the urban legend disappeared right before Haibara Ai's eyes.

Silent and formless, like a real ghost, leaving no trace.

"————Confirm the location before taking action."

The second half of Haibara Ai's sentence was spoken.

She turned her head and looked at Dr. Agasa, which made Dr. Agasa feel a little uncomfortable.

"I want the phone number of Kudo Shinichi's cell phone."

"I want it now!"

Dr. Agasa knew that Kudo Shinichi was unlikely to get a good night's sleep tonight.

Chapter 53 I want to mobilize explosives, but Rum won’t allow it!

"Brother! I went to a nearby armed base to mobilize explosives, and Rum wouldn't allow it!"

At dusk, the Black Organization was inside a base in Tokyo.
