Chapter 426: Identifying Cars by Sound
Mao Lilan blamed, "You are too careless. How about we call Miss Reina back?"
She looked at Maori Kogoro and said, "Dad, can you send a message to Miss Reina? She shouldn't have gone far."
Kogoro Mouri complained somewhat dissatisfiedly: "It's just a pair of glasses leg, can't you just get a new pair?" He said this but still took out his cell phone.
"That's such a waste of money." Mao Lilan acted very frugal.
"Ah, no need!" Conan said hurriedly. If he sent a message to Mizuno Rena, she would definitely go find the glasses leg. What if she found out there was a bug inside? It would be hard to explain it to her then!
"I'll just go get it myself sometime."
Mao Lilan looked at him suspiciously: "You go by yourself? Why make it so troublesome?" Could he be trying to take this opportunity to get close to the female host?
Conan was sweating profusely when he was looked at by Mouri Ran. He waved his hand and whispered something in her ear.
Mao Lilan suddenly realized that the prop was invented by the doctor. It would be difficult to explain if it was discovered.
Conan smiled and said, "That's it. I forgot to ask Reina-san for her autograph because of the stalker incident. I plan to visit her again when I have time."
Mao Lilan pretended to be helpless and said, "You should have said this earlier."
Kogoro Mouri curled his lips and said, "Forget it, it's up to you guys. I'm going to listen to the horse racing." Then he walked towards the office on the second floor.
"Dad, don't drink!" Mao Lilan shouted from behind.
"I got it!" Kogoro Mouri waved his hand without looking back.

On the other side, Rena Mizunashi was waiting for the red light. She took out her mobile phone from her bag and turned it on.
She had just sent a message to a number when she received a call.
"Hey, it's me."
"Something went wrong, so I turned off my phone."
"Don't worry, it's not a big deal. I've just emailed that adult and told him about it."
"Well, no problem, then let's meet at 10 o'clock as planned..."
"Gin."
Rena Mizuno put down her phone, and just at that moment the red light turned green. She stepped on the accelerator and the car started moving quickly.
···
Conan, who had just walked to the door of Yuya's house, was confused. He could never have imagined that the bug that was accidentally left on Rena Mizunashi's car would lead to such shocking news.
Just at this moment the door opened and Youya came out carrying a bag of garbage.
Seeing Conan standing at the door, he was a little confused: "Why are you here?"
Conan came back to his senses and pulled You inside: "Hurry, where's your car!"
"Hey, hey, wait a minute, I haven't thrown away the trash yet!" Youye was pulled unexpectedly and staggered and almost fell.
"Don't worry about the garbage, I found those people!" Conan shouted anxiously.
Yuya's expression froze. Could it be Rena Mizunashi? But how did he find out?
Without asking too many questions, he threw the garbage to the door and shouted, "Wait for me." Then he ran into the house.
After a while, Yuya and Miyano Shiho came out together.
The three of them got into the car together, and the canopy slowly lowered to wrap the three of them inside. Then the bright red sports car made a roar and drove out of the yard.
In the car, Conan told Yuya and Miyano Shiho what had happened.
"I see," Youya pinched his chin, feeling speechless. Was it destined that Rena Mizunoshi's identity would be discovered by Conan?
But this time, it was not the child who prompted Conan to install the bug, but his men whom he sent to monitor Rena Mizunashi.
However, he did not expect that these people would meet suddenly. In addition, he was not the one who gave the direct order. There was a relay station in the middle, and the speed of message transmission was inevitably delayed, resulting in the failure to evacuate people in time.
But it’s better this way, otherwise he would have to rack his brains to reveal Rena Mizunashi’s identity to Conan.
"Are you sure that person is a member of the organization?" Youya asked.
Conan nodded: "It's correct, I heard her send an email to someone, and then she called the other person like this on the phone..."
"Gin!"
Yuya and Miyano Shiho's expressions changed slightly - but one was acting, and the other was really changed.
"Gin shows up again?" Yuya said in a deep voice, "I thought he didn't dare to show up in Tokyo again after he was transferred to the Metropolitan Police Department last time."
Conan clenched his fists: "I will never let them get away this time!"
Yuya warned, "Calm down. The purpose of our tracking is to get your bug back. Otherwise, if they find out, they will definitely suspect Uncle Kogoro, and then we will all be doomed."
Conan broke out in a cold sweat. He was naturally aware of this problem, otherwise he wouldn't have been so anxious to chase after him.
Miyano Shiho glanced at the rearview mirror and asked worriedly, "Will your bug be discovered?"
Conan recalled carefully and said, "No, when I got off the bus, I checked the seat to see if there was anything left. I didn't see any bugs, so it must have fallen into some hidden corner."
"There's no danger for now. We just need to retrieve the items before they find out."
"Ah, turn right ahead."
Miyano Shiho turned the steering wheel and the sports car turned at the intersection.
"Still can't hear it?" Yuya looked at Conan in the rearview mirror.
Conan kept staring at the signal on the electronic map and replied, "The distance is not enough. The car has stopped. Let's get a little closer. Go straight and turn right at the second intersection."
"Not here yet?" You couldn't help but ask.
"The signal is slowing down, she may have reached her destination!" Conan made a gesture to keep quiet.
Upon hearing this, Miyano Shiho quickly slowed down the car.
"Got it. I can hear the sound... But it's only the sound of the engine, and there's an echo." Conan focused his attention on the loudspeaker and said what he heard.
"Did we enter an indoor parking lot? But there are not many indoor parking lots around here," Youya looked around and finally his eyes fell on a building not far away.
“That’s the only building that has underground parking.”
Conan looked up, compared it with the electronic map, and nodded: "According to the direction, it is definitely there."
"Wait, there's another sound..." Conan suddenly hissed.
Yuya and Miyano Shiho quickly shut their mouths.
Conan muttered in a deep voice: "This unique unequal engine idling sound, excellent jet echo... This is a horizontally opposed engine!"
Miyano Shiho looked at Yuya in surprise. Could he tell what type of engine it was just by listening to the sound?
Yuya whispered to her, "Conan has the ability of absolute pitch."
The so-called absolute pitch refers to the ability to know the name of a certain sound the moment it is heard, and to accurately identify the direction and source of the sound.
Miyano Shiho widened her eyes in surprise, and at the same time she was a little confused: "What does it mean to know that it is a horizontally opposed engine?"
Yuya explained: "There are very few cars equipped with this engine now. Almost only Subaru and Porsche use it. Ah, Ferrari seems to have it too, but not many."
"Considering who we are tracking, I don't need to explain what that car is, right?"
Miyano Shiho's pupils shrank slightly. If we talk about motorcycles, she might know something about it, but not about cars.
But since Youye had said this, she naturally understood.
The car that Conan heard was undoubtedly Gin's favorite car, the Porsche 356A!
