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

In the morning, when he saw Toru Amuro at the Poirot Cafe, Shirakawa Akira belatedly remembered this person.

Yes, they were very active at the beginning, but then I didn’t see anyone anymore…

Strange……

"Good morning, store manager." Amuro Toru was the first to greet him and took the initiative to explain what happened yesterday. "My car broke down on the way yesterday, so I couldn't make it to the police arrest scene. But I heard that the murderer is dead? I don't know what happened at the scene. It's really surprising."

Bai Chuanqiu shook his head: "I don't know either. Let's wait for the news from the police."

Amuro Toru glanced at Shirakawa Akane, then lowered his head to prepare the tableware. "Manager...is everything okay? I heard from Xiaolan that the manager had a checkup at the hospital, and fortunately, nothing was found."

In response to Amuro Toru's question, Shirakawa Akira answered casually: "Well, nothing."

Amuro Toru breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

He turned around and continued to work on his things, but his face was a little heavy.

Yesterday, after giving up on arresting Yoshizo Tsuneta, Toru Amuro turned around and went to Tsuneta's home to search, fearing that someone had destroyed the evidence in Tsuneta's home first.

It's a pity that after going around in circles, I found nothing.

It may be that Ryozo Tokuda was too afraid of those people and did not dare to leave any evidence, or it may be that those people were too cautious and did not let Ryozo Tokuda catch any evidence from beginning to end.

The line of inquiry into the abnormal Tian Liangsan was completely cut off, and no useful clues were found at all.

Toru Amuro was very angry, but he could do nothing.

Not even helpful.

The blonde clerk lowered his head, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then continued to do his job as if nothing had happened.

On the other side, Baichuan Qiu was unaware of the complicated emotions of his clerk. He squatted down and touched the captain whom he had not seen for a long time.

"You heartless guy, did you come back to check on me just because you knew I was in trouble?" Baichuan Qiu muttered, reaching out to gently scratch the calico cat's chin.

"Meow~"

The captain was a heartless cat. He circled back and forth around Shirakawa Qiu's legs a few times, as if confirming the life signs of his human owner. He took a few bites of cat food, wagged his tail and went off to wander around.

Bai Chuanqiu looked at the cat without turning back, feeling both amused and helpless. He sighed deeply, "Why do I feel like I have a traveling cat?"

The system was curious: "What is that?"

"Waiting for my son to come home." Bai Chuanqiu chuckled, "Everyone also jokingly calls me 'the father who cooks, the one who eats. The cold little house, the frog that can't be seen.'"

system:"???"

"Thinking about it this way, I still miss it a little bit—"

System: "? Is it a product of the host's world?"

Bai Chuanqiu recalled: "Yes, if this world is an extension of my world, then this world should also have that game soon, right?"

system:"?"

"Hurry up and check it out. If you find one, go to the next one and see whether the frog loves home more or the cat loves home more."

Baichuan Qiu took action immediately and took out his mobile phone and successfully searched for the same model.

The system looked at the green frog above and sighed softly.

——Alas, when will the host be able to be more serious...

At the same time, Matsuda Jinpei, who returned to the Metropolitan Police Department to work, was pulled into an empty meeting room by Shiratori Jinsaburo.

"what happened?"

Matsuda Jinpei felt a little strange and looked up and down at Shiratori Jinsaburo warily.

This guy inexplicably dragged him to a deserted place. What did he want to do?

Shiratori Jinsaburo looked at him with an extremely complicated expression, staring at him so hard that the hairs on Matsuda Jinpei's body stood up. He took off his sunglasses, glared at him impatiently, and said rudely, "If you have something to say, just say it."

"Thank you for what you did yesterday." Shiratori Renzaburo touched his nose and said embarrassedly.

The eldest young master has always been confident and conceited, and rarely says such words.

He hadn't felt anything yesterday, but when he got home that night, the moment he closed his eyes, he saw the jeep crashing into him...

Shiratori Jinzaburo kept his eyes open and recalled the whole night, but he couldn't remember when he offended Tokita Ryozo. Instead, he suddenly remembered that he had not yet thanked Matsuda Jinpei.

Although he doesn't like Matsuda Jinpei's casual personality, Shiratori Jinsaburo will not ignore his act of saving people.

Jinpei Matsuda was very surprised.

He put his sunglasses back in his pocket and looked the other person up and down seriously again.

This is really strange. Did this guy take the wrong medicine today?

However, Matsuda Jinpei did not forget the other party's arrogant nature, which was almost looking down on others.

Seeing Matsuda Jinpei's look of astonishment, Shiratori Jinsaburo felt a little embarrassed: "I'm not so arrogant as to not know right from wrong, or to not repay a favor, am I?"

What a bad impression this guy has of him!

Matsuda Jinpei retracted his gaze. "It's okay, it's just a small matter. Sometimes people's malice doesn't need a reason. Your existence is their original sin. So, no matter who you are, never let your guard down."

Shiratori Renzaburo was stunned.

This guy……

"Okay, time to work." Matsuda Jinpei waved his hand casually, walked to the door and was about to open it to go out.

"Wait, wait a minute." Shiratori Renzaburo suddenly called him again.

Matsuda Jinpei: "?"

It’s not over, right?

"Are you particularly concerned about what Ryozo Tokuda said before he died? Is it because of your good friend who was expelled from the police academy?" Shiratori Renzaburo asked tentatively.

The curly-haired officer's eyes suddenly became sharp, staring coldly at the person in front of him: "What do you mean?"

Shiratori Jinsaburo wasn't frightened by Matsuda Jinpei's aura. Instead, he spoke calmly and steadily, "Yesterday, I was thinking over and over again about what Tokita Ryozo said before his death. I feel like there must be a shocking secret hidden within. Finding the truth would be a great challenge for me, and I hope to investigate with you."

He, Shiratori Jinzaburo, had almost lost to Tokita Ryozo? What a shameful humiliation! He had already taken this vengeance upon the mastermind behind the incident and would definitely seek revenge!

Matsuda Jinpei frowned.

Shiratori Renzaburo said arrogantly, "I'm the young master of the Shiratori Group. Even if I find out something, they wouldn't dare to do anything to me. But if you guys investigate on your own, you'll definitely encounter a lot of resistance."

Jinpei Matsuda remained silent.

"And I've thought about it carefully. If Tsuneta Ryozo was trying to prove his worth before his death, then his last words must be related to the Investigation Division. The unnamed "Old Ka" might be someone from the Investigation Division..."

Shiratori Jinzaburo analyzed the situation in great detail, and Matsuda Jinpei was surprised.

Unexpectedly, the other party's analysis was almost the same as their analysis last night.

This made him look at him differently.

Meeting Matsuda Jinpei's gaze, Shiratori Jinsaburo hummed softly in his heart, his face remaining calm. "How's it going? Have I proven my ability?"

To be honest, Jinpei Matsuda was indeed tempted.

Having the White Bird Group as your backing will indeed be much more convenient and safer.

But he couldn't guarantee that the other party was a good person.

What if this is a trap set by the mastermind?

Matsuda Jinpei didn't agree directly, but said cautiously, "This matter isn't that simple. If we just rely on reasoning, basically everyone can figure it out."

Therefore, further clues are needed to prove this conjecture.

Shiratori Renzaburo understood: "I understand."

He turned around and went out first. Before leaving, he promised Matsuda Jinpei: "I will let you see my sincerity."

Matsuda Jinpei folded his arms, his eyes indifferent: "I'll wait."

……

In the afternoon, the Maori family came down to buy some things and visited Shirakawa Qiu to check on his condition.

"I'm completely fine, don't worry." Baichuanqiu replied with a smile, his eyes fell on Conan, then retracted, "I heard that you are going out tomorrow?"

"I heard from Sonoko that Kaito Kid might be scouting for the train jewel exhibition next month, so we plan to go to the Suzuki train in advance to experience it. Maybe we can find any trace of Kaito Kid," explained Ran Mouri.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Shirakawa Akira deliberately lengthened his tone and noticed that Amuro Toru was still calmly arranging the coffee cups beside him, without showing any abnormality.

Conan also lay on the table, looking at Shirakawa Qiu seriously: "Mr. Shirakawa, do you want to join us? You didn't see the gem exhibition last time, this time you can get up close and personal again."

Baichuan Qiu shook his head: "Forget it, I'd better stay in the cafe. What if Kaito Kidd disguises himself as me again?"

Conan: "...Uh, I see." If he could disguise himself as Mr. Shirakawa, it would be easier to identify him.

Shirakawa Akane vaguely understood Conan's unfinished words: ...

He glared at Conan fiercely.
