And now the public security has not made any progress at all, while the Metropolitan Police Department has already deduced the identity of the criminal... Although the criminal was shot dead in his hiding place by another murderer within two days, if this continues, it will undoubtedly deal a huge blow to the prestige of the Japanese public security.

In the past, Toru Amuro might have been troubled by this matter and unable to sleep for days and nights, but now he no longer cares about it.

A department where the top leaders only think about their own immortality and find all kinds of high-sounding excuses to fool the people below them and let them die without restraint, what prestige does such a department have to maintain?

Besides, it is this country that he deeply loves, not his own department.

So when it comes to calls from those people who are only former colleagues in Amuro Toru's mind, Amuro Toru's reaction can be described as quite indifferent, basically just perfunctory.

But when he heard Qin Wuque mention this matter, he could no longer remain calm.

Because Qin Wuque had once promised him that he would eventually see the peaceful Japan that he wanted to see.

"Yeah, I see you don't have anything to do right now anyway, why don't you sit down and chat?"

Qin Wuque said this, but his body showed no intention of moving. He continued to sit with his legs spread out, occupying the entire sofa by himself.

Amuro Toru had no choice but to get another chair and sit outside the dining table facing the street.

At this point, the four of them gathered.

After a brief introduction, Conan spoke first.

He has the most frequent and close contacts with the Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI, and by comparison, has the most intelligence at his disposal.

"At present, the police have found Hunter's body and some other items in Hunter's hiding place. From the scene, Hunter should have been defeated and died in a sniper duel with another person, but there are several suspicious points."

Conan took out his cell phone, flipped through some of the content he had sorted out in the memo, and read.

"The first suspicious point is that the first two sniper attacks used standard 11mm caliber bullets of MK-7.62, but the bullets police took out from Hunter's body were 5.56mm caliber bullets, which are the lightest bullets currently used and are completely different from the calibers used in the first two attacks."

"Brother Que, what do you think?" Conan raised his head and looked at Qin Wuque seriously.

"Hmm~ It's quite strange." Qin Wuque touched his chin and thought about it.

"Generally speaking, it takes a lot of time and countless bullets to master the use of a sniper rifle. In other words, a sharpshooter is made by bullets. Different guns and bullets will cause changes in trajectory and other data. So for someone like me, if the range changes, I will only change the scope at most, and will not use other models of sniper rifles because I will not be used to the feel."

"I think so too." Conan nodded. "Secondly, the police also found Hunter's diary in his hideout. The contents of the diary confirmed that there was indeed another sniper competing with Hunter for killing, and he stole Hunter's prey twice in a row."

He read from Hunter's diary, which had been translated into Japanese in the memo.

"On August 3, that guy stole my prey again with the intention of provoking me. This is clearly a challenge to me, so I must kill him no matter what. I must kill the remaining two prey with my own hands."

Conan read it all in one breath and added.

"This is what Teacher Judy told me. There shouldn't be any mistakes in the translation."

"Um"

Qin Wuque frowned with a subtle expression: "The translation error is secondary... The problem is, who would write a diary? Can what is written in the diary be considered as the true feelings?"

He turned his head and looked at Amuro Toru.

"Do you write?"

"Do not write……"

Amuro Toru shook his head slightly.

Then Qin Wuque turned his gaze to Shiliang Zhenchun.

"Do you write?"

"I... maybe I'll write it occasionally when I have free time?" Sera Masumi answered very uncertainly.

"Then you can just say you don't want to write it."

Qin Wuque finally turned his gaze to Conan, and the latter's raised hands clearly said it all.

"I admit, I don't write it." Conan admitted very readily.

"That's it~" Qin Wuque said.

"Okay, let's not talk about whether the contents of the diary are questionable for now." Conan changed the subject.

"The third suspicious point is that when the police investigated the sniper scene, they found another bullet hole in Hunter's room caused by a 5.56mm caliber bullet, and there were obvious scratches on Hunter's face from the back to the front. This means that it is very likely that the opponent attacked Hunter when his back was facing the window, but in this case, one of the bullets still missed."

Conan paused here and looked around, as if waiting for everyone's reaction.

Especially Qin Wuque.

But this time, Qin Wuque disappointed him.

The dog-headed man looked at Conan with the eyes of a person who has seen nothing but surprise, and his tone seemed to be normal.

"Any questions?" Qin Wuque blinked twice. "No matter how strictly you calculate the wind direction and distance for sniping, it only means that you can aim according to the calculation results, which will give you a certain chance of hitting the target, but it does not guarantee that you will hit the target every time. The enemy is not a magnet and will not attract bullets. Or do you also believe in [gravity]?"

"What a mess..." Conan frowned.

Then he paused, and he suddenly realized that he had not said something very important.

Everyone only saw Conan suddenly stop, and after two seconds as if the system was not responding, he quickly turned up his pockets and took out a large paper map of Tokyo.

The map was spread out, with three obvious big red arrows marked on it, and the distance spanned by each arrow on the map was also indicated.

"The arrows above represent the locations where the three sniper attacks were launched and the locations where the targets were hit," said Conan.

Qin Wuque tilted his head and looked at it carefully.

The first arrow was the longest, spanning from the building near Sumida Park to the Suzuki Tower, with a total length of approximately 11 meters, almost reaching the maximum range of the MK-.

The second arrow is slightly shorter, extending from Honjo Azumabashi Station to near Ishihara, but still about 550 meters away.

The third arrow was the shortest, not even one-third the length of the first two arrows. It just crossed the Azuma Bridge, was launched from the pontoon on the river, and shot into the building on the opposite bank.

The sniping distance this time was only one hundred and fifty meters.

¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥

Sera and Mary actually look almost the same. If you photoshop their hair to light blonde and make their skin a little whiter, they will be exactly the same as Mary except for the amount of breasts.

But I don’t know why I feel that Mary is healthier than the world…

Maybe it's because of the white hair.

Chapter 295 One-time Coach

The sniping distance is one hundred and fifty meters.

You should know that the maximum shooting range of the world's top snipers is about 2,500 meters.

Note that this is the extreme range, not the stable range.

Although 99.99 percent of snipers cannot accurately hit the target at a distance of 2,000 meters, in a sniper battlefield where the distance is often hundreds of meters, a distance of 150 meters is almost equivalent to sticking the muzzle of the gun in the enemy's mouth.

At least among the people Qin Wuque knew, Chianti and Cohen could almost hit the target every time within a range of 600 yards, which is about 550 meters.

If Captain Qin is more serious, he should be able to reach a distance of over a thousand meters.

Although Qin Wuque himself can use a sniper, he has hardly ever practiced it. It was only because of the nostalgia left over from the 300 million mouse dream he played when he was a child that he used to use the Barrett anti-material sniper rifle for a while.

Then this feeling disappeared the moment he flew a Hydra fighter for the first time.

Killing the enemy with one strike and making them flee thousands of miles away are all just fancy words. Fighter jets licking the ground are much more useful than this stuff.

No matter whether the enemy lying on the top of the hill has a water sniper with a range of 50 meters or a peerless sniper with a range of 5,000 meters, a round of machine gun fire will solve everything. If that doesn't work, the worst that can happen is a full-scale missile launch to take down the entire hill for you.

Besides, the cost of training a top sniper is much higher than a few missiles.

Ahem, that’s too far off topic.

In short, it is undoubtedly unreasonable for a sniper who can accurately hit a moving target at 550 meters at night to be unable to hit an unsuspecting target with its back to him at a distance of 150 meters at the same time at night.

Unless at that time a crab happened to climb onto the floating box from the river bank, and then accurately clamped its bullfish or abalone with its claws.

That is very possible. After all, being attacked in vital parts is an unbearable pain for both men and women.

"It's mysterious." Qin Wuque shook his head slowly, indicating that he had no clue at all.

"It's really mysterious." Conan actually followed up with a sentence.

He frowned and continued to share the information he had so far.

"And according to the news from Teacher Judy, when the police investigated Hunter's body, they found that Hunter was already skinny before his death. He looked completely different from the photo he took with the Navy SEALs."

"Oh?" Qin Wuque asked with a mouth full of tiramisu.

"But I have asked Teacher Judy to ask Inspector Megure to conduct a forensic autopsy. I think we can find out something from it..."

"Wait a moment."

Before Conan could finish his words, Toru Amuro interrupted him.

"Conan, who is this teacher Judy you are talking about, and why can she share information with people from the Metropolitan Police Department?" asked Toru Amuro.

"Teacher Judy is..." Conan was stunned.

"She's just a female FBI investigator who came to Japan for a 'vacation' with her boss and colleagues." Qin Wuque said after swallowing the tiramisu.

He also specifically emphasized the word "vacation".

"Oh, it's the FBI." Amuro Toru sighed undisguisedly.

Before Conan could say anything, Masumi Sera next to him raised his eyebrows.

"What happened to the FBI?"

This girl seemed quite dissatisfied with Toru Amuro's remarks.

"nothing."

Amuro Toru sneered.

"I have no problem with the FBI itself. I just can't stand their behavior of interfering in other countries' affairs, when their own country is in such a mess."

"Um……"

Sera Masumi remained silent.

She had to admit that what Amuro Toru said was true.

At least Japan hasn't yet become the real-life expansion for The Division 2, but America has almost become one.

And what about the 4k color TV and PS5 for free...

"Although the MK-11 is a sniper rifle designed to meet the needs of individual combat of the US military, it is unlikely that a skinny person would run around carrying a gun weighing nearly five kilograms," said Qin Wuque.

The bastard was now leaning comfortably on the sofa with most of his weight on the table. He had already finished the tiramisu on the white porcelain plate on the coffee table in front of him and was drinking the remaining half can of Red Bull one sip at a time.

"I think so too." Conan nodded. "And judging from the photos sent by Teacher Judy, Hunter's thinness is more like a symptom of some disease than malnutrition."

"If that's true, then the authenticity of the contents of the diary found at the Metropolitan Police Department is even more unreliable." Toru Amuro analyzed calmly.

"Moreover, most people write diaries to record what important things they did that day to prevent themselves from forgetting them later, rather than mumbling to themselves in their diaries about nonsense like "I must kill him." Qin Wuque also added.

"Wait! If that's the case... the key to this whole thing is in this diary!"

Conan was suddenly shocked, his face changed drastically, and he felt as if he had been hit hard, as if a lightning bolt had struck his brain out of nowhere.

"If the contents of this diary are false, then it means that Hunter's purpose from the beginning was to let the police see the contents of the diary, and he had anticipated his own death a long time ago, and even his own death was part of Hunter's plan!"

After figuring this out, Conan's thoughts suddenly became as smooth as a straight highway, and his ideas flowed like a spring.

"Thinking about it this way, maybe the real criminal has been in cahoots with Hunter from the beginning!"

"Think about it carefully. The first sniping distance almost reached the maximum range of MK-11. The second time was a nighttime sniping of a moving target. The third time was a mentality that would never waver no matter who the target was. These were three separate tests for the prisoners!"

Conan's tone became more horrified.

"Is this considered... a one-time coach?" Qin Wuque scratched his head.

"Besides, if it is really as you said, then the current situation is that Hunter is dead, but there are still two target enemies left. Normally speaking, shouldn't killing the master be the last step?"

Qin Wuque became more and more confused as he spoke.

"If Hunter was really in such a hurry to die, why didn't he combine the three trials into one? For example, he drove around the city at night, and then let his apprentice shoot him dead from 800 miles away. This way, he could complete all the trials at once and completely mislead the police."

"Um……"

Conan hesitated and pondered.

Although Qin Wuque's example is a bit crude, it does make sense.

"Then there is only one possibility left, that is, there is some kind of relationship between the locations and order of the three sniper attacks." Sera Masumi said, pinching his chin, "It's just that we haven't discovered it yet."
