Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Chapter 171 Eavesdropping

On the way, Lex asked casually, "Ian, have you ever studied reasoning before?"

Kudo Shinichi felt his entire back stiffen. "Huh? Reasoning?"

Lex chuckled. "Yeah, the clues and evidence Ian found are very crucial. It doesn't seem like they were learned on the island."

Kudo Shinichi scratched his head, bewildered. "Do I need to learn this? I just rely on my intuition and feeling."

Lex narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth: "Ah, is that so? Then it seems to be a talent?"

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

Should I say yes or no?

Watching Kudo Shinichi being taken away alone by Lex, Shirakawa Akane yawned lazily.

The system expressed concern: "Host, why are you so calm? What if Kudo Shinichi is exposed?"

"Don't worry." Baichuan Qiu's expression was calm, "Even if they suspect something, they wouldn't dare to do anything to Kudo Shinichi."

System: "Huh? Why is this?"

Shirakawa Qiu chuckled: "You forgot that when Kudo Shinichi and Green Chat 'recognized each other', the DNA test was real. This is enough to prove that 'Ian' really exists."

Even if Kudo Shinichi is exposed, Green Chat will immediately understand that the real Ian is still in their hands.

As long as Green Chat is still reluctant to part with his own son, he will never touch Kudo Shinichi.

The system muttered: "Then host, you are in trouble, aren't you?"

If there is something wrong with "Ian", it means that there is also something wrong with the "lawyer" Chuan Qiu. Then wouldn't the host be in danger as well?

Bai Chuanqiu was not panicked at all: "It's okay, don't forget my escape skills, they can't catch me."

System: “Yes.”

Wuhu, the host's escape skills are simply invincible~

System: "Then if we notice something is wrong, we'll run away immediately and blow them up here!"

Bai Chuanqiu held his chin in his hand: "This plan is good, little system, you have grown!"

System: “Hey hey.”

Kudo Shinichi, forgotten by everyone: What about me?

What should I do if you run away?

It seems that a world where only the protagonist is "injured" has been achieved.

On the other side, Kudo Shinichi was taken by Lex to meet Green Chat.

Obviously, Green Chat was also surprised by Kudo Shinichi's keen insight, but these doubts were all confused by Kudo Shinichi using the case files of Lawyer Oba that he loved to read.

Kudo Shinichi: "Some time ago, I was staying at Mr. Oba's house. He had a lot of completed case files at home, which I loved, so I often read them. I guess that's how I developed some interests and abilities."

Fortunately, Oba Atsuki is a lawyer and has been dealing with many criminal cases for many years, which makes him very close to reasoning and solving cases. Otherwise, Kudo Shinichi really would not be able to find an excuse.

However, after giving this explanation, Kudo Shinichi still felt a little uneasy.

This reason may be a bit far-fetched.

Even Lex had doubts, so according to Green Chat's keenness, it might be...

What Kudo Shinichi didn't expect was that after hearing his words, Green Chat's expression became gentle, and he didn't show any doubt at all.

He even laughed a little happily, patting Kudo Shinichi's shoulder cheerfully and praising him loudly: "He is worthy of being my son. Even though he hasn't been well trained, he still has the demeanor I had back then. It's obvious that he inherited my genes!"

Kudo Shinichi: "???"

Wait, what's going on?

Kudo Shinichi suddenly remembered something——

Green Chat's real identity is the retired former director of the Central Intelligence Agency!

CIA agents are actually somewhat similar to public security police officers. They both need extremely strong information collection and analysis capabilities, as well as reasoning and case-solving abilities far superior to those of ordinary people.

So from a certain perspective, the reasoning talent and keen understanding of cases demonstrated by "Ian" are "inherited" from the role of his father, Green Chat.

How can a father not be happy if his son looks like him?

So, by chance, we have this scene before our eyes.

The corners of Kudo Shinichi's mouth twitched, and he felt a little speechless, but his life was in other people's hands, so he could only blink his eyes, pretend to be ignorant, and smile shyly along with the old man.

Only Lex frowned slightly, pursed his lips, and did not respond.

After praising him a few more times, Green Chat let Kudo Shinichi leave first.

Kudo Shinichi walked out of the study and was surprised to find that the corridor was empty and he was the only one there.

The old butler was busy dealing with Morgana's affairs, so he was not guarding the door.

The boy's original steps became smaller.

He didn't dare turn around, but he lowered his steps and his movements became much slower.

Now there is no one else...

Kudo Shinichi stopped.

He raised his head and looked around vigilantly, checking the surveillance cameras in the corridor according to the method Mr. Shirakawa taught him.

There are indeed surveillance cameras in the corridor, but perhaps for privacy reasons, the cameras are not aimed completely at the study, but at the other end to ensure the safety of both ends of the corridor.

At present, Kudo Shinichi has not entered the surveillance area and is still in the safe corner at the door of the study.

Looking up at the surveillance camera, Kudo Shinichi took a deep breath.

If you only stay for a few minutes, it is difficult for anyone to notice this short time difference.

How do we do this?

Kudo Shinichi quickly thought about the pros and cons in his mind.

Now there is a high probability that Green Chat and Lex will continue to talk about the topic they discussed before. If he can listen to a little, there may be a breakthrough.

If he was discovered, he could still make an excuse.

Furthermore, Green Chat was currently on low alert against him. Although Lex couldn't tell what he was thinking, for Green Chat's sake, he wouldn't target him for the time being...

Although many thoughts flashed through his mind, only one or two seconds had passed. Kudo Shinichi turned back decisively, took out a pair of headphones and a small chip from his clothes, and lay on the door of the study.

The door of the study is a specially made soundproof door. If you just lean against the door and listen, you will definitely not hear anything.

But it’s different with the small chip in his hand. By sticking it on the door, Kudo Shinichi can vaguely hear the sound inside through his headphones.

Although not clear, it is enough to get the information.

This is a new invention that Kudo Shinichi specifically asked Dr. Agasa to research.

"Gin is on his way."

This is Green Chat's voice.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to find a way..."

Apparently, Lex felt they could still be salvaged.

"Haha, in this situation, even I would be doomed." Green Chat's voice was filled with melancholy, "That's Gin!"

"I'm going to kill him," Lex said firmly.

"You are too naive." Green Chat smiled helplessly, "You are no match for him."

"Then we-"

"Is there any progress in the laboratory?" Green Chat interrupted Lex.

Kudo Shinichi's eyes flickered slightly.
