Conan's Unscientific Detective

After a brief tour of the Metropolitan Police Department and getting familiar with it, he went to buy a leather case.

However, since things like police officer ID leather cases are simply not available in this place, and it would be illegal to get one, he made a black leather case that can be used as a substitute.

…………

The next morning, on the car heading to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Fujino sat in the driver's seat, looking in the rearview mirror at Conan, Ayumi and others sitting in the back seat, and sighed sadly.

Just this morning, Megure Juzo called him out.

It is said that Ayumi ran into the murderer of the serial arson last night.

I heard that Fujino had a good relationship with those kids, so I asked him to pick them up...

"You...became a criminal police consultant for the Metropolitan Police Department?"

Conan was sitting in the back row, looking at Fujino and asked in surprise.

"Yes, I just signed the contract yesterday."

Fujino sat in the front row and showed his work ID card, which was hung around his neck and covered with a leather case. "Isn't this the work ID card that has been issued?"

"So awesome!"

"Then doesn't that mean Brother Fujino is also a policeman now?!"

Sanxiao just doesn’t understand what a consultant is.

I just think it's amazing that Fujino was recruited into the Metropolitan Police Department, got a work permit, and became a police officer.

"Okay, what you think is really outrageous."

Fujino chuckled and explained, "I'm just a consultant in charge of guiding the case. I'm far from a real police officer."

"Well, consultants only have the right to participate in case investigations and partial investigations, which is indeed very different from normal police officers."

Xiao Ai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, nodded: "But compared to a formal police officer, this kind of relaxed position should be more difficult to obtain. After all, you don't have to go to work every day to get an extra salary. In a way, it is really amazing."

After a pause, she changed the subject, looked at Conan in the rearview mirror and continued, "Being able to formally participate in the investigation of the case, I am considered a semi-official staff member, much more serious than other detectives."

Conan: "..."

Just say it, why are you looking at me?

Are you talking about me... Shit...

Am I not serious?

Conan's eyebrows twitched and he looked at Fujino feeling a little jealous.

Not only can I officially participate in the investigation, but I can also get paid... Damn it!

The more Conan thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

He had heard of such a thing as a consultant, but Megure had never asked him...

It seems all my help before was in vain!

…………

Metropolitan Police Department, Criminal Investigation Office.

"Thank you, Mr. Fujino."

Miwako Sato smiled and invited everyone in.

"Ugh?"

Fujino glanced at Sato Miwako speechlessly, then looked around the seemingly empty office and said, "Speaking of which, there are really few people here today."

“That’s how it usually is here.”

Miwako Sato explained, "Inspector Megure is handling a bank robbery case, and the other police officers are also busy with other cases, so I have to entertain you."

As she spoke, she grabbed a notebook and pen from her desk, then said to Ayumi, "I have already discussed that matter with Inspector Megure. Ayumi, can you describe the appearance of the person you saw last night?"

"Let me think about it,"

Bu Meishi put his finger on his chin and tried hard to recall the memory in his mind: "He was a man with messy hair, a beard under his nose, and medium-length hair..."

"Well, a man with a beard and medium hair..."

Sato Miwako nodded seriously, wrote and drew on her notebook, and soon raised her head and continued to ask: "What about the expression? For example, what do the eyes look like?"

"Let me think... oh yeah, fox eyes!"

Ayumi was afraid that Sato Miwako wouldn't understand, so she raised the corners of her eyes in a very vivid way and said cutely, "Just like this, hanging up like a fox!"

"Uh-huh!"

Sato Miwako thanked him again for drawing, then showed the notebook to everyone and smiled with narrowed eyes: "Is that so?"

"..."

Fujino stared at the painting and couldn't help but slap his forehead.

Hopeless!

On the notebook was a very sloppy sketch with straight lines without any curves, but it subtly depicted the suspect's facial features.

If you use crayons to color this, someone who doesn't know would think it was drawn by an elementary school student...

Being able to draw like this is, in a way, very impressive.

Soul painter belongs to it.

“Not at all!”

Ayumi looked at the drawing on the notebook and naively poured a bucket of cold water on it.

"what?"

Miwako Sato was stunned when she heard this, blinked, and looked at her own painting: "Doesn't this look like…"

Yuan Tai hit it with a hammer: "It's hard to see, okay!"

Mitsuhiko nodded and added bluntly: "It's just like a child."

Huiyuan Ai was also somewhat speechless, half-lowering her eyes and looking around: "Is there no one who can draw better?"

Sato: “Hmm…”

I was actually criticized by the kids for not being as good as them in drawing.

Is the painting really that bad?

Sato Miwako felt like crying but had no tears, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment: "There's nothing we can do about it... After all, Mr. Zhichuan, who is in charge of the portrait today, has asked for leave..."

"But, Sato..."

Gao Mu came over at this time and said awkwardly: "There is no way to give such an abstract painting to the investigators to compare with the suspect."

“This painting still has great artistic value.”

Bai Niao, who followed over, added with a smile: "Although the lines are neat and the style of painting is intriguing, if it is handed over to the investigators..."

"Then I'll leave this painting to you two."

Miwako Sato curled her lips and crossed her arms across her chest.

It’s okay for children to laugh at you, but you guys come too!

She dared to say these things while being asked to work.

If you have the ability, do it yourself. I won’t serve you anymore!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 313: It shouldn’t be too much to make a billion, right?

"No..."

Takagi was speechless for a moment: "I'm not very good at drawing."

"I prefer Impressionism to Realism..."

Shiratori also smiled and politely refused.

Fujino: "..."

To be honest, these two people are indeed quite dishonest.

Asking people to draw and then mocking their poor drawing skills...

Fujino was speechless for a moment, then said, "Officer Sato, hand me the notebook."

"Ugh?"

Sato exclaimed in surprise and handed over the notebook: "Advisor Fujino, can you draw sketches?"

"As for sketching... I haven't done much."

Fujino took the notebook and said, "I have drawn some anime characters before... Well, it shouldn't be a big problem..."

After some writing and drawing, Fujino quickly drew a portrait of the arsonist based on Ayumi's description and some impressions.

Although his painting skills are not very strong, he can at least distinguish the features.

Fujino handed the painting to Ayumi: "The suspect should look like this, right?"

"Yeah! That's right! Just like what Fujino-nii drew!"

Ayumi excitedly stretched out her hand and nodded.

"Let me see……"

Conan also came forward and took a look, revealing his half-moon eyes: "Why does it feel like an anime character?"

"I've already said that I used to draw anime characters when I had nothing to do..."

Fujino looked at Conan speechlessly: "How about you come if you can do it?"

"I'd better forget it..."

Conan was stunned, then shook his head repeatedly.

"In that case, we should just search it this way."

Fujino handed the painting to Shiratori: "Officer Shiratori, this painting should be able to be investigated, right?"

"There is nothing wrong with this painting. Although the artistry is not up to par, at least one can tell the features and recognize them at a glance..."

Shiratori took the painting and then hesitated, "But if we mobilize a large number of police forces to search for just this one suspect, it would be too much of a fuss."

After all, this is a joint investigation into the arsonist, and it would be inappropriate if they took it all.

"You don't believe Ayumi?"

"Don't underestimate us kids!"

"Ayumi won't be wrong!"

The children immediately became unhappy, and looked indignant at the police officer's suspicion.

"It's not that I don't believe it..."

Takagi smiled and tried to smooth things over, "After all, Ayumi didn't see that the suspect was setting the fire. It would be troublesome if we made a mistake."

"It should be correct."

Conan suddenly thought and reasoned: "The weather is still a little hot now. At that time, that guy was wearing a windbreaker and gloves, and his trouser legs smelled of gasoline. He also appeared near the fire scene with a weird smile. If he is not the murderer, it is really hard to explain..."

Fujino: "..."

He silently lowered his head and looked at his suit.

Then he thought about the life-saving windbreaker in his personal space.

Hmm, why does it feel like he is the murderer too?

…………

After Conan's discussion, Miwako Sato finally decided to go to the crime scene.

But before that, she still had to take a detour to other places.
