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

When the Maori family went downstairs, they unexpectedly discovered that Poirot Cafe was doing a booming business today.

Shirakawa Qiu, who used to slack off often, had to leave his "boss chair" and busy himself around in the coffee shop.

Conan was slightly surprised and looked at Amuro Toru who was smiling brightly, feeling a little confused.

Noticing Conan's inquiring gaze, Toru Amuro raised his head and gave him a friendly smile in a good mood.

Conan:!

Why is he smiling at me?

What do you mean? Bourbon is not going to pretend anymore?

Is he going to attack us?

Conan felt mixed emotions. He didn't know why Amuro Toru had changed so much and what he was up to. He could only force himself to smile back and sat stiffly in his seat following Mouri Ran.

Seeing Conan being so cautious that he didn't even dare to raise his head, Amuro Toru raised the corners of his lips in amusement.

Sometimes, it's fun to tease children.

Shirakawa Akane patted Amuro Toru's shoulder with a sullen look on his face: "Amuro, please control your charm. The girls over there have already turned into screaming chickens."

Amuro Toru: “?”

He looked in the direction Baichuanqiu pointed, and saw a few infatuated girls. They were holding their phones towards him, covering their mouths and twisting their bodies wildly, their faces almost flushed, and they looked very excited.

Toru Amuro: "..."

The blonde clerk's smile barely faded.

Bai Chuanqiu said in a leisurely voice: "If you don't restrain yourself, I will call Matsuda and the others over and have them supervise you."

Today, all the orders came in because of this guy! If he didn't collect some of the orders, he felt like everyone would be too busy to stay in the cafe today.

Toru Amuro: "..."

The smile on his face froze completely.

Okay, now I'm completely honest.

Baichuanqiu was satisfied.

He walked over to the girls and asked them to delete the photos and videos before walking back.

The system popped up again: "Host, why did you ask them to delete the video? With Amuro Toru's looks and attributes, he can definitely become the face of the cafe."

They should be allowed to spread the video, attract more people, and then develop it into the next love love internet celebrity cafe and make crazy money.

Bai Chuanqiu sighed in his heart: "I want to too."

I have thought about it before. After all, they are from the water plant, so I won’t feel bad about using it. It can also effectively increase the reputation of the cafe and make it an Internet celebrity shop.

However, Toru Amuro is a fake wine that is diluted with water.

Or the benefactor who funded most of his medical expenses...

Baichuan Qiu felt that he was already crazy enough.

But at least, one should not... harm one's savior and the original owner's classmate and friend.

After all, he is an undercover agent, and putting his face on the Internet for many people to see does pose some risks.

So faced with this opportunity to make a lot of money, Baichuan Qiu could only choose to give up with tears.

The system didn't know what Bai Chuanqiu was concerned about, and said with some regret: "Host, if you are not ruthless, your position will not be stable. Show Xiao Hei's moral qualities and be Xiao Hei's moral role model!"

Baichuan Qiu: "...I always feel like you are cursing, but I have no evidence."

Whenever he heard the name Xiao Hei, he felt a headache.

I always feel that Xiaohei is now an adjective that can cover all bad comments.

System: "Eh? Is there? Is there?"

Shirakawa Akane: "...Yes."

The system thought about it carefully. Although it didn't quite understand, it still said hesitantly: "Okay, then. I'll apologize to you first."

Baichuan Qiu: "...Look, you know how to apologize! And you still want me to lower my moral standards! Where are your morals!"

Damn double standards! This is simply too much!

system:"……"

Finally, the system was silenced.

Baichuan Qiu hugged his arms and hummed softly.

—

Metropolitan Police Department.

"Matsuda, come here for a moment."

Shiratori Jinzaburo patted Matsuda Jinpei's shoulder.

Matsuda Jinpei raised his head and said, "Okay."

The two people walked outside.

Sato Miwako also looked up, propping up her head in a somewhat strange manner: "When did these two people become so close?"

Takagi Shigeru shifted his chair and whispered, "It seems like it was after we captured Toshida-senpai last time."

"Could it be that because of the life-saving grace, they changed their views on each other?" Sato Miwako pondered: "It's weird, I don't know what they are doing..."

In the lounge, there were only two people, Jinpei Matsuda and Jinsaburo Shiratori.

After closing the door, Shiratori Renzaburo's expression turned serious: "Matsuda, I think I may have found something incredible."

Matsuda Jinpei's eyes lit up: "What is that?"

"I have been wondering who the 'Old Ka' that Tokiwa Ryozo mentioned before his death was, when did Tokiwa Ryozo come into contact with him... and why it was such an uncommon name as 'Old Ka'..." Shiratori Jinzaburo first gave his analysis.

Unlike China, the people of Sakura attach great importance to etiquette. Even if they have a good relationship, they will not directly use terms like "Lao Wang" or "Lao Cheng". Instead, they will add "Jiang" or "Jun" after the surname, or call the person by his or her name directly.

Therefore, the "Old Ka" that Ryozo Tokita called before his death was most likely not a name.

If that's not a name, what could it be?

Shiratori Jinzaburo lowered his voice and boldly expressed his guess: "He might be talking about the 'old section chief.'"

"Section Chief（かちょう）" → "ka chou"

Matsuda Jinpei's pupils shrank slightly, and he lowered his head, stroking his chin and muttering to himself, "Section Chief?"

Shiratori Jinzaburo: "I've already found out. Nine years ago, Tsuneta Ryozo went on a mission with the previous head of the First Investigation Division. However, an accident occurred at the scene, and the old head died on the spot. It was later ruled an accident, and a large memorial service was held within the agency. No one noticed anything unusual at the time."

Matsuda Jinpei clenched his fists suddenly: "You mean..."

Shiratori Jinzaburo met those eyes with a complex feeling. "I think what Tokita Ryozo said before his death was, 'If it weren't for him, the old section chief wouldn't have died.'"

And everyone who was involved in that case back then is a suspect!

Jinpei Matsuda took a deep breath.

If this is true, then the entire search process will be completely changed!

"What kind of case was that? What kind of accident happened?" he asked quickly.

Shiratori Renzaburo: "That was just a false alarm. Nine years ago, someone told the old section chief that Linlu Construction was murdering a contractor who came to collect his construction payment. They then dumped the body in an abandoned building of Linlu Construction, intending to destroy the evidence."

"However, when the old section chief led his team to investigate, they found nothing there but a long-abandoned construction site."

"It was night time, and everyone was searching with flashlights. Unexpectedly, the old section chief missed a step on the 13th floor and fell straight down..."

Jinpei Matsuda frowned fiercely.

Linlu Construction?

I always feel like I've heard of it somewhere.

"Afterwards, the police conducted a detailed investigation of the person who reported the incident. However, the person claimed that they had misread the situation and that nothing had actually happened. The police also investigated Linlu Construction and found that the construction team had already received the payment and the foreman was alive and well. There was no alleged murder or body disposal at all."

"The police also thoroughly investigated the scene where the old section chief fell. They found only his own footprints. No one else was there, so ultimately, it can only be classified as an accident."

Shiratori Renzaburo finished speaking and sighed deeply: "Now it seems that the case was really full of doubts."
