Chapter 171 Conan's Suspect List
After school, Conan went straight to Dr. Agasa's house.
"Yuya, what's the matter that requires you to talk to me about?" Conan asked anxiously as soon as he entered the door.
Yuya has already secretly investigated and found that there are several eavesdropping devices installed in Dr. Agasa's house, but he did not remove them and planned to keep them.
He was familiar with the script, so he knew that the bug was installed by Vermouth. In that case, there was no need to clear it out for the time being.
Because he had already planned to pass on some information that he wanted Vermouth to know through the eavesdropping device.
It is not enough to just have the information in the old villa. Only when the information on both sides is similar can Vermouth believe that what she overheard is true.
But it is still necessary to communicate with Conan.
What? There's a bug? Conan quickly wrote this sentence on a piece of paper, and then looked at Yuya in shock.
Youye nodded and wrote: It was also found at Mio's house, but not at mine. You can check uncle's house when you go back.
Conan nodded heavily and wrote: Who did it?
Yuya: Not sure yet.
Yuya put the paper aside and said, "Today I learned from Inspector Megure that the archives room of the Metropolitan Police Department was robbed. Some files about the case that Uncle Maori and I solved were stolen, and then they were returned intact."
"The files were stolen and then sent back?" Conan frowned with a puzzled look, "What do you want to do?"
"Could it be that someone just wanted to investigate something, and then found it useless so they sent it back?" Dr. Agasa guessed.
You also shook his head: "Why not just throw it away? There's no need to do this. It will only alert the police if they notice the data is missing."
Conan pinched his chin and thought: "Did I get exposed? But I have never appeared in the outside world with my original identity. How did they suspect me?"
"You forgot, we went out to eat together during the school festival." Youye rolled his eyes. You have a really bad memory.
Conan also thought of this incident. No way, was he so unlucky that he was seen by someone from the organization?
Yuya comforted him, "But don't worry too much. We can't be sure that they did it. By the way, Conan, have you noticed that you have been followed recently?"
"Following?" Conan thought about it carefully and said no, but he immediately frowned, "Teacher Judy also asked me this question today."
"Teacher Judy?" Youya was a little surprised. Didn't she know that Vermouth was disguised as Aida Tomoaki? Why did she ask Conan?
Conan nodded, looked at Yuya and asked solemnly: "I'm a little suspicious, could Teacher Judy be one of them?"
Yuya was stunned. Was he going back to the same path again? He didn't intend to let Conan and Judy fight each other. That would be a waste of effort!
But he still frowned and thought: "It's possible, and..." Yuya paused, hesitating whether to tell Conan that Miyano Shiho could detect the physical condition of the organization's members.
Seeing that You was silent, Conan quickly asked, "And what?"
Yuya glanced at Conan, but finally didn't say it. After all, Vermouth might be listening to their conversation now. If he said it casually, it would put Miyano Shiho in danger.
"Nothing, maybe we can investigate this female teacher from a foreign country."
Conan looked at Yuya suspiciously, he was sure that the other party had not finished speaking.
But if You didn't want to say anything, Conan had no way to pry anything out of him, and now was not a good time, so he could only give up.
"Okay, let's talk about this later. I'm going to the mall to buy some daily necessities." Yuya suddenly said and winked at Conan.
Conan's expression changed, and he said, "Then I'll go back too. Sister Xiaolan should have finished cooking dinner."
After the two of them finished talking, they left, leaving Dr. Agasa standing there alone.
After a while, a gentle call came from outside the house: "Agasa? Are you home? I'm here to pick you up."
"Fusae?" Dr. Agasa's eyes lit up, and the disappointment just now was swept away. He ran to the door with brisk steps, and the fat on his belly trembled, "Here it comes!"
···
Yuya and Conan walked side by side, and they walked together for a short distance before they separated.
"Tell me, what are your plans?" Conan asked in a low voice.
Knowing that there were bugs in Dr. Agasa's house, Conan still discussed the matter in a big way. Conan believed that Yuya must have some plan.
You also smiled. After all, they grew up together and had a high level of understanding about many things without having to say anything.
"I plan to use these eavesdropping devices to pass on some intelligence I want them to know, and then lure them out of their hole."
"Lure the snake out of its hole?" Conan widened his eyes slightly.
My goodness, you were just saying that those people were going to lure Kudo Shinichi out, but now you, Kamiya Yu, are planning to lure them out too?
Thinking of the bombing case a few days ago, Conan couldn't help but wonder if Youya was a part-time writer, as he was so good at writing scripts.
"That's right," Youye nodded, "Now we are in the light and they are in the dark. This is very disadvantageous to us. I have to find a way to reverse this situation."
Conan pondered for a few seconds and asked, "What are your plans?"
Youye smiled and said, "According to my guess, they are probably still unsure of your identity. Otherwise, there would be no need to go to your door with a gun and deliver the bullets."
Conan nodded in agreement. Indeed, judging by the organization's style of doing things, it was more in line with their cruel and ruthless approach to kill directly at the door.
"Actually, regarding the bug, I'm more inclined to believe that their target is me."
Yuya repeated to Conan the reason he told Miyano Shiho, and Conan nodded thoughtfully.
For the moment, let’s not consider whether they were seen by the organizers while having dinner that night. After all, there were too many people and it is impossible to rule it out.
At that time, only a few people knew about Kudo Shinichi's appearance, and they were all trustworthy people, except...
Among them, Yuya and the other few who knew his identity would definitely not tell anyone. The police officers who didn't know, such as Inspector Megure and Suzuki Sonoko, would also not tell anyone after "Kudo Shinichi" specifically told them to.
Then, the only person who could have leaked it accidentally or intentionally was Tomoaki Niide.
After all, Kudo Shinichi and Aide Tomoaki are not familiar with each other at all, so it is hard to believe that he will really help keep the secret.
It is necessary to pay attention to this, otherwise the people from the organization would not install eavesdropping devices for no reason.
Conan quickly went through the people in his mind, and found that below Judy, who was ranked first on the list of suspects, there was another person named Tomoaki Arata.
The two said goodbye in a normal way, and Youya came to a convenience store.
After picking up some daily necessities and going to the counter to pay, I was surprised to see someone who looked familiar.
"Mr. Amuro..." Youya was a little surprised.
You're a newspaper deliveryman, and now you're working part-time as a cashier at a convenience store. How badly do you need money? Do you have a bedridden relative like Lucas?
It’s so hard!
Toru Amuro was a little puzzled by Yuya's sympathetic look. He responded politely and started scanning the codes of the products.
"The total is 5173 yen." said Toru Amuro.
Yuya nodded, pulling out a Yukichi note from his wallet and handing it over.
Toru Amuro noticed a large stack of banknotes in Yuya's wallet, and it seemed that they were all from Yukichi. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Yuya strangely: Is this guy so rich?
But when I thought about where he lived, I felt relieved. It seemed that he was a wealthy family.
Of course, Yuya also noticed that Amuro Toru was observing his wallet, and seeing the "envious" look in his eyes, he couldn't help but sympathize with him.
Judging from the way he skillfully scanned the code to pay, it was obviously not his first day working in a convenience store.
He is so young, yet he works so many part-time jobs for his sick family. What a good person!
Much better than those criminals!
"Goodbye!" Amuro gave a professional smile and watched Yuya leave.
After everyone left, Toru Amuro showed a puzzled expression on his face.
What was going on? Why did he feel that the detective seemed to sympathize with him just now?
Is it... an illusion?
