Conan Rick's Investigator

In addition, Qin Zhibo basically solves cases alone, unlike Conan who often asks questions, so there is less communication and naturally no deep friendship can be cultivated.

But thanks to Qin Zhibo's actions, the situation was opened up directly!

……

In the cake shop, through a fair and reasonable lottery method using slips of paper, the five members of the Junior Detective Team competed to select the child who could finally realize his wish.

Congratulations to Huiyuan Ai for winning a Prada bag!

However, looking at the wish she wrote on the note, and thinking about Qin Zhibo's view of the pattern just now, Huibara Ai smiled slightly and decided to expand her own pattern as well.

"I'd rather change my wish to fulfill Ayumi's wish, but it requires all of us in the Junior Detective Team to live in the castle in Tropical Paradise together, no one can be left behind~"

Haibara Ai's tone was rarely playful, but it brought a hint of pain to the face of Sato Miwako, who was sitting opposite her.

A Prada bag is much easier to get than five tickets to the Tropical Paradise Castle plus accommodation tickets...

"Okay, no problem!"

Once you make a promise, you must fulfill it even if it means breaking your back teeth. This is how you should behave!

From the current perspective, Qin Zhibo, Haibara Ai, and Sato Miwako are all people with a big picture.

Takagi Shigeru and Shiratori Jinzaburo lowered their heads in shame, feeling that they were narrow-minded and only wanted to take advantage of others.

At this moment, the phone in Shiratori Jinzaburo's arms rang. He picked up the call and heard the voice of Inspector Megure on the other end.

"Shiratori! Someone has seen a suspected arsonist in the 6th district of Shinagawa City!"

"He escaped after encountering a patrol officer on routine duty and is currently being pursued. His description is..."

After hanging up the phone, Shiratori Renzaburo immediately took Takagi Wataru with him to prepare to go to the scene.

Catching the arsonist...

Qin Zhibo was somewhat puzzled by this situation and asked, "Why are arsonists also under the jurisdiction of the Third Division of the Violent Crime Investigation Section of the First Investigation Division?"

Qin Zhibo had visited the Metropolitan Police Department before and knew the investigation department where Takagi and others were.

Takagi Shigeru shook his head and explained, "Actually, a body was found near the fourth arson scene. Preliminary assessment is that the deceased was most likely killed after witnessing the arson..."

Listening to the information from Takagi Shigeru, Qin Zhibo remembered the agent that the Nine Angels Organization had sent to investigate the arsonist but was killed.

It must be him...

Chapter 483: Don't Move

"The arsonist is also a murderer, that's why we were used."

After saying that, Takagi Shigeru and Shiratori Renzaburo left in a car.

Sato Miwako took over the conversation, looked down at the Junior Detectives, and warned, "So you guys better listen carefully. Don't leave my side for a moment."

This made Qin Zhibo a little puzzled. What did this have to do with the Junior Detective Team?

Then Sato Miwako explained that Ayumi from the Junior Detective League was an eyewitness to the arsonist, and her job today was to take these children back to the scene for investigation.

"Oh, I see……"

Qin Zhibo glanced at Ayumi and praised her, "You're really lucky. You have the talent to be an investigator."

Conan: "?"

"Investigator? What investigator?" Sato Miwako looked a little confused.

Qin Zhibo waved his hand, telling everyone not to pay attention to this detail.

"By the way, since we've met today, I'll do my best to help."

Sato Miwako looked at Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi, thinking of how Qin Zhibo's reasoning had easily solved the mystery that had puzzled her for 18 years. Perhaps the arsonist's case could also be solved...

"Since Mr. Qin said so, please."

"It's just that there's no room on my bus..."

Qin Zhibo glanced at the roadside and reached out to stop a taxi.

"It's okay, we can take a taxi."

……

A police car followed by a taxi drove to the location where Ayumi encountered the arsonist yesterday.

"Yeah!"

"Yesterday, when I was buying toys at this Kamen Rider Gachapon machine, I saw an uncle dressed in strange clothes coming out."

Qin Zhibo glanced inside the alley. The flames had burned the walls black, and a charred house was surrounded by a cordon.

At first glance, there were no survey points within sight.

"correct!"

Ayumi remembered something and quickly added, "That weird uncle was talking about things like 'the eve of the celebration', 'the corrupt city is ablaze with red lotus flames', 'a grand carnival' as he walked along..."

Miwako Sato took out the police manual and took notes, but did not ask about the meaning of these words in detail.

Conan, who was also thinking about the case, didn't care either. He just thought that the arsonist had some middle school syndrome and couldn't distinguish between the real and virtual worlds.

But when Koizumi Akako, who also suffers from the Chunibyo syndrome, heard these fragmentary descriptions, her brain waves immediately responded and she held her chin up with a thoughtful look.

At this time, Sato Miwako's cell phone rang. It was Shiratori Renzaburo calling.

After a while of talking, Sato Miwako repeated it to Qin Zhibo.

"Shiratori and his team caught the suspected arsonist at Shinagawa Station, but he insisted that he was just a burglar."

"I'm going to take Ayumi to identify it now. Mr. Qin, are you coming with us?"

Since it concerns whether he can get the 100 million mission reward, Qin Zhibo must of course confirm it.

"Okay, let's go together."

……

When they arrived at Shinagawa Station, Sato Miwako and Ayumi stood on the other side of the platform and saw the arrested suspect.

"It's not him." Ayumi frowned and shook her head.

"The man I met should have a beard, darker skin, and looked a bit sloppier..."

Hearing this answer, Qin Zhibo subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. His 100 million was still there...

Ayumi listed so many differences in one breath that Sato Miwako knew there was no need to read on.

"I'll go over and inform Gao Mu and the others. Mr. Qin, please take these children back to my car first."

Qin Zhibo made an OK gesture, and Sato Miwako left with peace of mind.

Looking at the relaxed and happy smile on Qin Zhibo's face, Conan frowned, feeling a little confused.

It seems like he's a little happy that the police didn't catch the arsonist?

……

Qin Zhibo sent the Junior Detective Team back to Sato's car. He took a look at Sato's car logo and model and recognized that this was the Mazda RX-7 that the staff introduced to him when he visited the auto show last time.

Anyone who chooses Mazda is indeed a very good person.

In fact, Qin Zhibo has a good impression of Sato Miwako, a capable policewoman with a somewhat cool personality, and occasionally a little cute.

But Qin Zhibo personally feels that long hair makes her look more feminine, while short hair makes her look either a tomboy or a cute girl, suitable to be a friend or a sister.

For example, Huiyuan Ai is so sad and cute...

Judging from previous performances, Takagi Shigeru and Shiratori Jinsaburo should both like Sato Miwako.

If it was Shiratori Jinzaburo, it would be fine. Shiratori is the inspector and Sato Miwako is the deputy inspector. According to the customs of Japanese society, the status of husband and wife after marriage is more harmonious, and the possibility of long-term happiness is greater.

If it was Takagi Shigeru, he was definitely a subordinate of Sato Miwako. Even if both of them were promoted under Megure, Takagi Shigeru would always be one level lower.

This reminded Qin Zhibo of a video he had seen before. The couple in the video were in a superior-subordinate relationship in the military, except that the wife was the superior and the husband was the subordinate.

Every day, the husband can only accept orders from his wife like a soldier, from small things like when to get up to big things like various household decisions. He cannot refute or dare to express other opinions.

Although there is no explanation at the end of the video, Qin Zhibo feels that maintaining such a husband-wife relationship for a long time will damage the man's self-esteem, stimulate resistance, and ultimately lead to various family conflicts.

The police force is similar to the military in that they are very particular about following orders. While it might not seem like much right now, once the initial romance is over, marriage is a lifelong commitment.

If these two people get married with the woman being stronger and the man being weaker, the possibility of a happy marriage in the future is relatively low.

So after weighing it in his mind, Qin Zhibo felt that Shiratori Jinzaburo and Sato Miwako were a better match.

Look! Even the name is five characters long.

Qin Zhibo silently supported the couple in his heart, then waved at Conan in the car.

"We're leaving now. I'll leave this place to you."

Since the police didn't catch the arsonist, the clues to the arsonist were still in the Zoroastrianism, so Qin Zhibo planned to go back to the "Crematorium" to take a look first.

"Ah."

Conan nodded vigorously and watched Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi leave.

The three little ones in the car tilted their heads, a little confused, "Why does it feel like that uncle spoke to you, Conan, as if he were an adult?"

Conan was stunned for a moment, then grinned, "How should I know that..."

Haibara Ai glanced at Conan, then glanced inside the car. When she found that there was nothing she wanted, she pushed the door and got out, then walked out with her hands behind her back.

Conan noticed that Haibara Ai was about to leave the team and quickly asked, "Haibara, where are you going?"

"Buy a map of Tokyo."

"Really..."

This is a crowded station with many people watching. Conan had the experience at the Haido Hotel last time, so of course he didn't dare to let Haibara Ai act alone again.

"Wait for me!"

However, Conan was still quite responsible. Before leaving, he turned back and gave the three little ones some advice.

"Let's go get a map. You guys stay in the car and don't move."

Chapter 484 Young men, do you also want to pass on the fire?

Conan followed Haibara Ai to a shop next to the station and politely bought a map of Tokyo from the shop owner.

"Thank you, could you lend me another pen?"

"sure."

Taking the pen from the shop owner, Haibara Ai opened the map and began to look for the address on it.

"Kudo, do you still remember the locations of the previous arsonists' fires?"

"Hmm..." Conan said while thinking with his chin held high: "The first time should be in Ikebukuro, and the second time is Asakusa Bridge..."

With the help of Conan's super memory, Haibara Ai marked five points on the map.

"What does this look like to you?"

Haibara Ai listed several points in front of Conan. After staring at them for a while, Conan finally figured out what they were.

"This is...fire!"

The points depicted on the map, after being connected by several lines, are exactly the same as the Chinese character for "fire", except that the last dot in the middle is missing.

And this point happens to be the Shinagawa district where I am currently located!

"Could it be that the arsonist's last arson site was in Shinagawa District?"

At the same time, in the red Mazda sports car outside the station, the three little ones were getting a little impatient waiting.

"Did Conan and Huibara come up with some new clues and go to the police to claim credit?"

As soon as Genta's idea was put forward, he immediately received unanimous nods from Mitsuhiko and Ayumi. After all, Conan and Haibara are old offenders of personal heroism.

So the three of them decided not to miss the opportunity to show off, and got off the bus and prepared to return to the station.
