The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 203 Odagiri Toshiro's Request

"Inspector Narasawa Osamu was a colleague of Maori Kogoro and his senior. When Maori Kogoro first joined the Metropolitan Police Department, he was very caring towards him."

"Patrol Chief Shibayo Ichiro is a junior of Maori Kogoro. When he first joined the Metropolitan Police Department, Maori Kogoro was the one who taught him. He could barely be considered half of his master, but Maori Kogoro resigned not long after that."

After hearing this, Bai Masong's doubts were completely dispelled.

After all, it is impossible that these cases are so coincidental, there are playing cards in all of them, and the names and playing cards correspond one to one.

What’s more, these victims were all relatives and friends of Kogoro Mori.

If there were two murderers, then all of them would have been stabbed in the back with the same knife. We can only say that these two murderers had a telepathic connection.

However, Detective Maori probably isn't feeling very good right now.

After all, in his opinion, it was because of him that two people died and three were injured!

But......

Bai Masong couldn't figure out what was going on. What if these five cases were committed by the same person?

So, isn't the person they found the murderer?

But, if he is not the murderer, where did the murderer get the information about the quarrel between Kisaki Eri and Mouri Kogoro?

However, Bai Masong didn't have time to think about it.

After introducing the incident, the meeting officially began.

The meeting mainly focused on explaining and controlling Kogoro Mori's interpersonal relationships.

Then, the details of Narasawa Osamu covering his chest before his death and Shibayo Ichiro holding the police officer's ID were analyzed.

The meeting did not last long. After all, the most important thing now was not to hold a meeting, but to find the murderer as soon as possible!

"Okay, today's response ends here. All departments must mobilize all forces and take action immediately!"

As Odagiri Toshio finished his words, the meeting ended.

Superintendents and deputy superintendents from various departments all returned to their posts and began a comprehensive search of the entire Tokyo metropolis.

At this time, Odagiri Toshiro said to Hakuba Matsu,

"Inspector Baiba, please stay for a moment."

Hearing the voice, Bai Masong stopped and was about to leave.

He looked at Odagiri Toshio with a puzzled look, wondering what the Criminal Minister wanted to see him for.

"White Horse,"

When Odagiri Toshiro saw that everyone else had left, he started to speak. However, his expression was a little conflicted, but it was immediately suppressed by his uprightness.

"I want you to help me investigate something."

As Odagiri Toshiro said this, he took out a lighter from his pocket.

The lighter looks very exquisite and should be worth quite a bit of money.

"This is?"

Bai Ma Song asked.

"This is Ninoho's lighter."

Odagiri Toshiro said with a complicated expression.

Ninoho?

Bai Masong heard this familiar name and immediately thought of,

"Is it the Niinoho who died a year ago?"

"Yes."

Odagiri Toshiro affirmed.

Then he went on to say,

"I found this lighter in the room of my good-for-nothing son."

After hearing this, Bai Masong fell silent.

Odagiri Toshi too.

The image of the rebellious young man with purple hair emerged in Bai Masong's mind.

Bai Masong didn't ask why, and as he was talking, he brought up the case of Ninobo.

Because he knew one thing, that is - before the incident, Narasawa Osamu and Shibayo Ichiro started by investigating the case of Ninoho!

Odagiri Toshiro looked at Hakuba Matsu's thoughtful expression and asked,

"Baima, do you know about the ABC murders?"

The ABC Murders...

Hakuba Matsu certainly knew this, and he also knew that Odagiri Toshiro now had the same idea as him.

The ABC Murders is a case in a novel by Agatha Christie and is also a very classic murder mystery.

To put it simply, the murderer killed a lot of people in order to cover up the fact that he killed one person.

There is a saying that goes, if you want to hide a leaf, the best way is to create a forest.

Now, these five cases, although on the surface, all seem to be murders based on playing cards.

However, before Narasawa Osamu and Shibayo Ichiro, Inspector Megure and Dr. Agasa had not actually received fatal injuries.

You know, the suspect had attacked with a crossbow before, and if he wanted to retaliate, he could have used a pistol.

In other words, the suspect did not have the determination to kill before.

However, he treated Shibayo Ichiro and Narasawa Osamu differently.

He was holding a pistol, and he aimed it at vital points at close range, with extremely brutal means.

It can be said that he is determined to kill Narasawa Osamu and Shibayo Ichiro.

But why do they have to be killed?

If the murderer really wanted to take revenge on Kogoro Mouri, shouldn't he kill Eri Kisaki and Inspector Megure, who were closer to Kogoro Mouri?

Comparing the two, one naturally thinks of the ABC murder case.

That is, committing crimes through a so-called order and pattern so that people will ignore his real goal.

This is done to confuse the public and disrupt the police's investigation.

If it was really done by Odagiri Toshiya, then he committed this serial attack in order to kill the two police officers who had already investigated something, but he wanted to conceal his purpose.

Thinking of this, Bai Masong nodded to Odagiri Toshiro and said in a deep voice,

"I understand."

"Ah."

Odagiri Toshiro nodded, he knew what Bai Basong meant by "clearly understood".

He and Bai Masong are both smart people, and it is easy for smart people to talk to each other.

"The lighter in that bastard's room, the police manual that Narasawa Osamu held to his chest before he died, and the police officer's ID that Shibayo Ichiro held before he died all give me a more and more ominous feeling."

Odagiri Toshiro said so.

"Bai Ma, please, if you really find out it was that bastard."

"Don't pay attention to me, just bring him back and deal with him according to the law."

What Odagiri Toshio said was very sincere, and the pleading in his tone was also very sincere.

Although he is a father, in his heart he is more of a policeman.

He has been a father for twenty-four years, but he has been a policeman for twenty-six years.
