Oritis in the world of Detective Conan
Chapter 71 The Collision of Red and Black (Part 7)
Judy rushed to the hotel to prove Cameron's identity.
Inspector Megure was quite surprised: "But, what is he doing in Japan?"
"I didn't do my job as an FBI agent. You all know that I came to Japan to relax and travel."
"Because he saw that I hadn't returned home, he was very worried about me and came to see me specially."
"Because Andre Cameron is my boyfriend."
"Right, Darling~"
Everyone couldn't hold back after hearing Judy's explanation, and Conan even showed his crescent eyes.
"Huh? I thought Miss Judy's boyfriend was the one I met at the dock last time. Now it seems I misunderstood?" The speaker was the mercenary.
Now everyone present turned their eyes to the three of them, and the serious atmosphere of the interrogation was instantly overwhelmed by the excitement of watching the show.
"Ah, that's your misunderstanding. I just went to the pier to relax and happened to meet him, hahaha." Judy quickly covered up.
Inspector Megure grasped the key point: "Huh? This Mr. Sabeda seems to be acquainted with you. Is he also from the FBI?"
Conan: I immediately stopped watching the show. It's so shocking that the police mistakenly think the Black Organization members are the FBI.
"No, it's just that we have some overlap due to work reasons." The mercenary gave his own explanation.
Inspector Megure then speculated: "So they're government officials or something like that?"
Even the mercenary couldn't hold it in any longer. He quickly changed the subject: "Ahem, the most important thing right now is to solve the case."
"Oh, that's true. I almost forgot about the important matter."
Judy then walked up to Conan and thanked him quietly, and Conan expressed his hope to meet everyone again before the FBI evacuated the hospital.
"Also, I want to handle the Negroni issue myself so as not to alert the FBI. I've met him several times before, so I have a fairly good understanding of him."
"Really? Then you must be careful."
Officer Chiba presented the evidence he had found in the restroom to the public. It consisted of a raincoat, gloves, and a gun, most likely the weapons used in the crime.
Conan said that the murderer must have hidden the things in the toilet after committing the crime, and it would take at least five minutes to do these things, and he couldn't be in a hurry and arouse suspicion.
"That's true, and we've checked the elevator's surveillance tapes, and there are indeed no foreigners using the elevator."
"What if it's a foreigner from Asia? You can't tell from the appearance." Judy expressed her doubts.
"I didn't expect that."
"I'm Asian." The mercenary rolled his eyes in annoyance.
The secretary at the side said, "I don't think our president would hire someone with Asian appearance. After all, he said that someone with completely Japanese appearance who could speak Japanese would be more interesting."
"So the most likely suspects are these three men with European and American appearances."
Mercenary: "Then I am temporarily cleared of suspicion."
"Just in case, please stay here, Mr. Sabeda, and cooperate with us," said Inspector Megure.
"Oh, okay." Life is not easy, the soldier king sighed.
Conan, who was investigating the case seriously, found that the president must have written something on the note paper with a pen before his death, but the top sheet had been torn off.
After investigation by the police, it was confirmed that the message on the note was "bring my tux", which means "bring my tuxedo here."
The secretary also indicated that the president originally meant to ask her to pick up the dress for the evening party, and the message on the phone could prove this.
The police officers, not understanding the special meaning of this sentence, asked everyone to wait in another room.
On the way to the room, Conan took the initiative to stop the mercenary: "This incident has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Of course it's okay. Do I need to kill someone to liven up the atmosphere when I come out to eat?" The mercenary shrugged.
"You said before that you were Nepalese and a mercenary. So, are you a member of the Gurkha mercenaries?"
"You are quite perceptive, but I am a free mercenary now. If possible, I don't want to be controlled by others." The mercenary's eyes darkened.
On the other hand, Judy asked Cameron about what happened two years ago and learned that it was because of his mistake that Shuichi Akai was exposed in the organization.
On the Black Organization side, Rena Mizunoshi, who has not yet regained her trust, is asked to kill Shuichi Akai in exchange for the organization's trust in him. She is being forced by Gin to call Shuichi Akai.
"It's me, Rena Mizunashi. Are you ready to talk now? Is there anyone else around?"
Shuichi Akai signaled James beside him to be quiet.
"It's me, just me."
"You're probably surprised that I contacted you so soon after returning to the organization."
"Look, it's hard for me to stay in the organization right now, so I'd like to ask you to help me get out of this organization and escape. Of course, I will provide you with the information you FBI wants."
"So, can we just have some time alone now?"
"If it's just you over there, no problem."
"I'll text you the time and place to meet."
After making the call, Gin complained: "Today is Friday the 13th, a very suitable day for him to die."
James, on his part, was deeply skeptical about this meeting. He wanted to contact Judy but was stopped by Shuichi Akai.
The perspective returns to Conan, who has figured out why the murderer took the note with English writing on it. At the same time, he also lends his cell phone to Judy, which is noticed by the mercenary nearby.
Conan told Inspector Megure the method of identifying the criminal, and asked him to prepare a chair, have several suspects stand in front of the chair, and then recite the spell: "Hidampuri."
Everyone except Toby Keynes sat down.
"For foreigners who are used to listening to English, that sentence means 'please sit down', so the gentleman who didn't sit down must be the murderer." Judy smiled.
"It seems that the murderer didn't understand English and mistakenly thought that the sentence written by the president was a death message that could reveal him as the murderer, so he tore up the note?" Officer Takagi was the first to react this time.
A note later found on Toby Keynes also proved that he was the criminal.
After the case was over, Conan followed the mercenary who was about to leave without even eating.
"Why don't you stay for dinner this time? This doesn't seem like your style."
"What a troublesome kid! How can I still be in the mood to eat here after something like this happened?"
"Hey, I thought mercenaries had a good attitude. They wouldn't lose their appetite just because someone died."
"I didn't lose my appetite because someone died. I lost my appetite because I saw you here." The mercenary was speechless.
"You little brat are simply a plague god. I'm going to be laughed at by them because of this."
"Them? Your companions in the Black Organization?"
"No, I said they were not my companions."
"By the way, I saw you hand the phone over to that FBI investigator named Judy. Has your plan with Akai Shuichi begun?"
"What? How did you..." Conan was shocked. He thought no one else knew about this plan.
"Hush." The mercenary smiled. "Codename 'Mercenary', for now I'll just consider you my 'companion'."
