Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

Inspector Megure was injured.

Green Terrace Police Hospital.

A group of people gathered around Inspector Megure's bed.

"Brother Mori, brother Kitagawa, you are here!" Inspector Megure was lying on the hospital bed and looked to be in good condition.

Maori Kogoro asked with concern: "Inspector, how is your injury?"

Shiratori Renzaburo, who was standing by, replied, "Fortunately, there were no serious injuries. However, he will need to be hospitalized for a few days for observation."

"The murderer likely used a hand-held crossbow, but it's unclear whether the murderer deliberately targeted the police inspector."

It turned out that Inspector Megure was attacked by a mysterious man with a crossbow while jogging this morning. After he fell to the ground injured, the murderer did not continue to attack.

Yui Uehara interjected, "We found something very strange at the crime scene."

As she spoke, she took out an evidence bag containing a rapier made of paper.

Conan originally came for the case, but his attention was not on the case at this time.

The moment he saw Uehara Yui, he understood everything and felt that his previous reasoning was correct.

Yui Uehara must have some connection with Taki Kitagawa, which is why she came to Tokyo from Nagano Prefecture!

"What does this mean?" Kogoro Mouri pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Conan asked something unrelated: "Sister Tiger Tian, why did you come to Tokyo?"

"Little brother, call me Sister Uehara from now on." Uehara Yui touched Conan's head and explained: "I wanted to change my living environment, so I came to Tokyo from Nagano."

Maori Kogoro glanced at Conan, gave him a slap on the face, and said rudely: "Kid, don't interrupt my train of thought!"

Conan covered his head in pain, looked at Uehara Yui, and then at Kitagawa Taki. There was definitely a relationship between the two, even though they didn't appear to be very familiar with each other on the surface.

……

Princess Law Firm.

"Teacher, this is today's schedule. Also, this is an email I received."

Midori Kuriyama placed a beautifully wrapped gift box on the desk, with a paper flower pinned on it.

Kisaki Eri recognized it immediately and said with a smile, "It's Jikoba chocolate!"

"Isn't this your favorite Swiss chocolate, Teacher?" Kuriyama Midori said, "It's just that the sender isn't listed on it."

Kisaki Eri's first reaction was that it was a gift from Kogoro Mouri, but then she shook her head. How could that person give her a gift for no reason?

She picked up the gift box and looked at it, then took out a card from the back with the words "To Princess Lawyer" written on it.

"Haha, I know who sent it."

As she spoke, she opened the gift box and unwrapped it, revealing chocolates of various shapes.

She skipped the heart-shaped chocolate, picked up a regular round chocolate, and took a small bite.

Just after swallowing, Kisaki Eri felt a burning sensation, "Water, Kuriyama, give me water..."

She quickly spat out the chocolate in her mouth, but it was too late. She swayed and fell on the desk.

"teacher!!"

Midori Kuriyama was so frightened that she almost lost consciousness. She quickly took out her cell phone and called the emergency number, and then she called Kitagawa Taki.

……

Toto University Hospital.

After receiving the news, Kitagawa Taki and others rushed over immediately, and Xiaolan also rushed over from home.

The doctor said, "The patient is no longer in danger. We performed a thorough gastric lavage."

Kitagawa Taki asked: "Is it food poisoning?"

The doctor replied, "It's probably pesticides or something. As a precaution, the patient needs to be hospitalized for observation."

Maori Kogoro said solemnly: "Then I'll leave it to the doctor!"

Everyone went into the ward together to visit Kisaki Eri.

Kisaki Eri has woken up. With her glasses taken off and her hair loose, she looks less fierce than usual.

"Mom, are you okay?" Xiaolan was undoubtedly the one who was most worried. She rushed to the bedside with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Kisaki Eri held Xiaolan's hand.

After a moment, Shiratori Renzaburo asked, "Lawyer Hime, did you collapse after eating the chocolate?"

"Yes, I just ate a little and felt something was wrong..." Kisaki Eri described the feeling.

"By the way, this is the chocolate packaging."

Midori Kuriyama took out a gift box from her bag.

"It's Chicoba chocolate!" Of course Kogoro Mouri recognized it. It was Eri Kisaki's favorite chocolate.

Uehara Yui murmured, "Paper flowers..."

She always felt that these two things looked familiar.

Shiratori Renzaburo was surprised and asked, "Could it be that the murderer who attacked Officer Megure is the same one?"

Maori Kogoro nodded. "Absolutely. The key question is what do the paper sword and flowers represent?"

The ward fell into silence.

Suddenly, Yui Uehara exclaimed, "I know!"

"It's a playing card!" she explained. "Isn't the rapier on top of the king? And the flower is on top of the queen."

Kitagawa Taki said: "What Officer Uehara said makes sense. Officer Megure's name is Megure Jusan, which corresponds to K. Attorney Hime's last name is Hime, which corresponds to Queen, which is QUEEN - Q."

Maori Kogoro pondered and said, "So, the murderer killed people according to the playing cards. Then the next one would be Eleven, right?"

Uehara Yui speculated: "No, the murderer may not have intended to kill anyone. He could have shot Inspector Megure with an arrow when he fell to the ground, or he could have put a more deadly poison in Attorney Hime's chocolate, but the murderer didn't do that."

Shiratori Renzaburo said, "The most important thing now is to find the murderer's next target! Maybe we can catch him!"

Kitagawa Taki suddenly thought of a possibility, "Doctor!"

He walked straight out of the ward, and Conan immediately understood what was going on and hurriedly followed him.

The other people in the ward were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Doctor? Dr. Agasa? Is he related to Eleven?" Kogoro Mouri was puzzled.

Xiaolan on the side interrupted: "Dr. Agasa's name is Dr. Agasa, isn't Shi Shi the same as Eleven?"

……

PARKING LOT.

As soon as Kitagawa Taki got into the car, Conan followed him in.

Conan said: "Me too!"

Kitagawa Taki ignored him and started the car.

On the way, Conan asked directly: "Did you help Torada... Uehara Yui come to Tokyo?"

He couldn't just sit back and watch as a man who was most likely a criminal became a policeman.

Beichuan Taki was surprised: "Why do you think so? What can I do to help her? Besides, how can I reinstate her?"

Although Kitagawa Taki said this, it still did not dispel Conan's doubts.

He had to bury these things deep in his heart for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was not this. Dr. Agasa might be in danger!
