Kitagawa Taki drove quickly to Dr. Agasa's house.

"PhD!"

Dr. Agasa had already fallen in the yard and was trembling as he used his cell phone to make a call.

"Taki, Shinichi!"

Dr. Agasa also saw the two of them.

Conan quickly asked: "Doctor, where is the murderer?"

Dr. Agasa endured the pain and said, "It was a guy riding a black off-road motorcycle. He was wearing a helmet and a cycling suit. I couldn't recognize him."

Kitagawa Taki swept his spiritual sense around but didn't find anyone who matched Dr. Agasa's description. He thought they must have escaped far away.

"Doctor, I'll take you to the hospital first."

Dr. Agasa said: "I have called the emergency number."

He was not injured in any vital parts, but the location of the injury was quite awkward. An arrow hit him right in the butt.

Fortunately, the skin is thick and the wound should not be deep.

"I can take you there faster." Kitagawa Taki helped Dr. Agasa into the car and picked up the paper sword handle that the murderer had thrown in the yard.

Conan ran out to check on the murderer but naturally returned empty-handed.

……

Kitagawa Taki sent Dr. Agasa to Touto University Hospital.

After receiving the news, Kogoro Mori and others rushed over.

"This is what the murderer left behind."

Kitagawa Taki took out the paper sword handle.

Maori Kogoro said: "It turns out that the killer is playing according to the order of the playing cards."

……

In Kisaki Eri's ward.

After visiting Dr. Agasa, Xiaolan returned alone.

Midori Kuriyama was arranged by Eri Kisaki to return to the Kisaki Law Firm.

"I was so scared when I heard that something happened to you, Mom!" Xiaolan looked scared.

Noticing something strange about Xiaolan, Fei Yingli asked with concern: "Lan, what's wrong with you?"

Xiaolan hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Two days ago, I had a nightmare..."

Xiaolan saw Kisaki Eri in her dream, and it was her when she was young. Just when Xiaolan ran towards Kisaki Eri, Kisaki Eri shouted at her not to come near.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a gunshot, Kisaki Eri fell to the ground.

Xiaolan was also awakened.

After listening to Xiaolan's dream, Hibiki Eri laughed and said, "Am I old now?"

Xiaolan laughed and said, "I guess I said something wrong."

"Ran." Kisaki Eri gestured to Ran to move closer.

Xiaolan responded and rested her head next to Kisaki Eri on the hospital bed.

Kisaki Eri gently stroked Xiaolan's hair and said softly, "I'll be fine."

But she had one thing in her mind. She knew that Xiaolan had such a dream because she was definitely affected by that incident, but she didn't know whether Xiaolan remembered it.

Because Xiaolan was still very young at that time.

At that time, she took Xiaolan to the police station to see Maori Kogoro, but she was kidnapped by a prisoner who escaped accidentally.

During the stalemate, Kogoro Mouri chose to shoot her, and the criminal lost his composure. He took this opportunity to injure and successfully subdue the robber.

The incident also left a scar on her leg, although the bullet only grazed her leg.

Not long after this incident, she separated from Kogoro Mori.

Of course, the separation was not because of this incident. She could also understand why Kogoro Mouri shot her. At that time, the criminal was out of control and could hurt her at any time. This was indeed the best choice.

But this happened right in front of Xiao Xiaolan, causing quite a shock to her.

Fortunately, Xiaolan gradually forgot about this incident until today when she mentioned her dream.

If possible, she hopes Xiaolan will never remember it.

Regardless of whether Xiaolan can understand it or not, this is not a good memory after all.

……

the other side.

Kitagawa Taki and others were discussing the murderer's next target when a nurse ran over.

"Excuse me, who is Mr. Maori Kogoro?"

"It's me." Kogoro Mouri was a little confused.

"Someone asked me to give this to you a few minutes ago." The nurse handed Kogoro Mouri a card.

Maori Kogoro glanced at him, his expression changed, and he asked quickly, "Where is that person?"

The nurse said, "He's gone."

Kitagawa Taki asked, "Is it a guy wearing a helmet and cycling clothes?"

The nurse said, "Yes, I found it strange! His voice also sounds like a voice changer."

Yui Uehara asked, "Mr. Mori, what's written on it?"

Kogoro Mouri showed the card to several people. There were only three numbers on it: 13, 12, and 11.

Conan said in a deep voice: "It seems that the murderer is targeting you, Uncle Maori!"

Shiratori Renzaburo was puzzled and asked, "What is the murderer trying to do? Provoke me?"

Uehara Yui asked, "Mr. Maori, do you have any clues about the murderer?"

Kogoro Mouri frowned and shook his head. If he really counted, he had sent many criminals to prison personally during his years as a criminal policeman and detective, and there were many people who hated him.

At this moment, the voice of Inspector Megure came: "I know!"

"Police department!"

"Inspector Megure, why are you here?"

He changed into his signature brown windbreaker.

Officer Megure looked down at the wound on his abdomen and said, "My injury is fine now. I heard that Lawyer Hime and Dr. Agasa were also attacked, so I rushed over."

He had a lot of fat in his stomach and no vital injuries were sustained, so he insisted on being discharged from the hospital.

Uehara Yui asked, "Inspector, you just said you know the murderer?"

Inspector Megure said in a deep voice: "I think the murderer should be Murakami Takeru."

"Murakami Jo?!" Kogoro Mouri remembered it instantly.

Inspector Megure said, "He's a bachelor who specializes in card games. He was imprisoned for murder ten years ago and was released a week ago."

The banker who specializes in card games, isn’t that the dealer who deals the cards?

Just as Kitagawa Taki thought, Inspector Megure took out a photo and said, "This is Murakami Takeru ten years ago."

In the photo, Takeshi Murakami is dealing cards to customers.

Maori Kogoro said in a deep voice: "He does have reason to hate me. It was me who arrested him back then!"

"I've heard a little about that case. After he was taken to the police station..."

Before Shiratori Renzaburo could finish his words, he was interrupted by Inspector Megure, "Brother Shiratori, let's not talk about the past anymore."

Kitagawa Taki narrowed his eyes. It seemed that there was another hidden story behind this matter.

Maori Kogoro held his chin in his hand and thought: "But why didn't this Murakami Jō come to me directly?"

Inspector Megure said in a deep voice, "He attacked the people around you in order to force you into a dead end step by step."

Kogoro Mori's face turned grim.

Uehara Yui pondered and said, "It might be difficult to find him directly. This Murakami-jo must be hiding very well."

It is indeed difficult to rely on the power of the Japanese police, and Kitagawa Taki has experienced this many times.
