“Excuse me, what can I do for you?”
Mao Lilan’s tone was full of anxiety… She seriously suspected that something was wrong with the old man she met today, so she wanted to investigate as soon as possible. Naturally, she didn’t have time to chat with others.
Suzuki Sonoko and Conan, who had already gotten into the car, also stuck their heads out.
“My name is Kurosawa, and I am a private detective hired by Mr. Leshe. Have you met him today?”
Sano first “introduced himself” and then carried out the most critical target confirmation.
…The body currently used by Sano is naturally a vest.
To be precise, it is the body that Sano prepared for his No. 3 vest, the Black Mask.
Sano actually created this vest a long time ago, just after he got the Masked Superman pendant, using the points he habitually reserved.
After all, Sano didn’t know at that time that the mask’s defensive power was so high. If it was forced to release it, the face that would be revealed would be…
That’s not very good.
Moreover, if the body of another vest is used to cover it, in case of death, if Sano happens to be using that vest, it will be easily caused.
The embarrassing situation of “one dead and two corpses”.
Of course, there was an incidental factor. At that time, Sano wanted to get a passerby vest, and he used it for the time being, but later he got a passerby vest.
It has never been taken out in a real sense.
This time I can take it out and use it… Although based on the situation, Sano’s true identity is more suitable for intervention, but isn’t his “original body” right now next to Gin, if it is known that there is a ” Sano”.
That’s not easy to fool.
Sano and Conan, this big-hearted guy, are not the same people.
Before, I showed my face at the Didan High School garden party with great fanfare, but I actually thought that my few words alone would really not reveal anything.
…Speaking of which, it was really not discovered all this time, which is quite damning.
Could it be that something was deliberately concealed in the organization’s intelligence database?
Back to business, the name “Kurozai” that Sano reported… Hey, he actually changed it by himself based on Gin’s real name.
As for how Sano knew Gin’s real name, it was when he inquired about the other person’s birthday some time ago… Because he needed a gift in return, and because he was afraid of trouble, he chose to ask the other person directly, and then the other party handed over his driver’s license.
At that time, Sano couldn’t help but raise a question mark.
“Isn’t your driver’s license a fake?”
Gin was also stunned: “Why is the driver’s license fake…is your driver’s license fake?”
Sano said nothing, just blinked.
Gin also tacitly agreed not to continue this topic, but secretly decided…
Damn it, if Sano is allowed to touch the steering wheel of his car in the future, he will write his gin code name backwards!
Well, in short, this is how Sano knew Gin’s birthday and the other party’s real name – Kurosawa Formation, from which he also came up with the name Kurosawa.
…Actually, Sano originally wanted to give Black Mask’s vest some Kamen Rider names, but maybe it was because of bad taste.
In the end, I chose to borrow the name from gin.
As for Sano’s question, Mao Lilan and others were stunned.
“Are you… the private detective hired by that old gentleman?”
Sano nodded, seeing that he just said “Mr. Leshe”, but Mao Lilan said “Mr. Old”, he immediately confirmed that his mission goal was correct.
Then you can directly speed up.
“Mr. Leshe told me that he was being targeted. If he disappeared, he would probably be kidnapped. I couldn’t contact him, so I looked for the route he mentioned today. Unexpectedly, you seemed to be there too. Find him.”
“What!?”
The trio was stunned again.
“You said that old gentleman was kidnapped?”
Before Mao Lilan came back to her senses, Conan had already asked: “Then do you know who kidnapped the old gentleman and why he was kidnapped?”
Sano shook his head and said he didn’t know.
“If I knew this, there would be no need to find you. It is precisely because I don’t have any clues that I came to you. After all, Mr. Leshe is also my client. The most important thing is… I haven’t paid the balance yet. Get it.”
Upon hearing this, Mao Lilan and the other three couldn’t help but make a few points.
Really… dedicated to his duties.
“We don’t have any special clues here at the moment.”
Perhaps because she felt that one more person would have more strength, Mao Lilan directly dragged Sano into the car, and then explained all the information she knew.
“The old gentleman in the car at that time should have got off at the hospital stop. The driver had no impression of this. We went to the hospital and asked, but there was no registration record of Mr. Leshe. In addition, the driver also said Yes, there was a man in a white trench coat wearing sunglasses, and he asked me where I got off the bus.”
“At that time in the car, I felt that the man was peeking at us. If Mr. Leshe was really kidnapped, could it be that he was the one who did it?”
Conan also interjected: “By the way, there’s that disk. If that disk was the reason why that person targeted Mr. Leshe, then Mr. Leshe, knowing that he was being targeted, threw the disk into Sister Xiaolan’s bag. There, there is also the man in the trench coat who will ask Sister Xiaolan where to get off.”
“It all makes sense!”
In fact, there is one thing Conan has not said yet.
That is, ever since Mao Lilan went out, Conan always felt like there was a car following them.
In addition, there is another suspicion that is not quite right.
Conan quietly turned his attention to Sano.
Kurosawa, who claims to be a private detective hired by Mr. Leshe, seems to have a problem as well.
Le Shi Chongji knew that he was being targeted, so he hired a private detective.
This sounds like nothing and makes sense.
But in this case, how could he not tell the other party anything?
And according to the situation described by Mao Lilan, Leshe Shigekichi also said during the day that she planned to talk to her father, Mao Li Kogoro, in person in the afternoon.
If nothing else happens, he should entrust Kogoro Mouri to help.
So what’s going on with this private detective?
Conan calmly withdrew his gaze, it would be better to be a little more vigilant.
…Soon, the taxi arrived at the bus terminal.
Originally, Mao Lilan and others planned to come here because it was still unclear whether the so-called “Le She Chong Ji” really existed.
So I planned to come to the “site of the crime” to see if there were any clues.
Although the existence of Le She Chongji has been confirmed now, and it has also been determined that the other party is likely to be in danger, because there is too little known information, we still have to see if there are any other clues.
Otherwise, if you call the police based on just a few words, the police won’t believe you.
Unless the password was cracked on the disk that was given to Dr. A Li, and there is indeed something useful in it, then that is another concept.
After finding the bus that Mao Lilan had taken during the day, they did not find any useful information on where the other person was sitting. Instead, they found the place where Le Shi and Chongji were sitting during the day through Conan’s breath. The two names “written” when the fog started further confirmed each other’s existence.
