Chapter 354 Fraud
Edogawa Conan had no intention of comforting the lost Kojima Genta. He hurriedly took out the phone from the dirty clothes basket and handed it to Komatsu: "Are these two?"
Komatsu imitated Edogawa Conan and wrapped her cell phone with a handkerchief to check it. All the cell phones had passwords, but Komatsu knew Tsuruta's password. She tried it and opened one of them. It was a black phone without a case or screen film, and looked like a newly bought bare phone.
Xiaosong exclaimed in a low voice: "It's open! This is it! It's really Inoue."
Kojima Genta suddenly felt disappointed and jumped up and cheered, "Found it! Let's call the police!"
Conan Edogawa and Heiji Hattori shook their heads: "We didn't find any bodies. If we only had a cell phone, we could have had many excuses to get away."
Moreover, Edogawa Conan thought that Inoue might not be the murderer at all, and there was also a suspicious Eguchi here.
But everyone suspects Inoue, and no one seems to care about Eguchi, who seems to be a good guy. How can they raise his suspicion?
Just as Edogawa Conan was thinking this, there was a knock on the door. The people in the room immediately became alert. Could it be that someone had just finished taking a shower and found that his phone was missing?
Ignoring the fact that Ogura, Tanaka, and Inoue's clothes had been taken away and it was unlikely that they would knock on the door calmly while naked, Edogawa Conan asked nervously, "Who is it?"
A gentle male voice came from the other side of the door: "It's me, Amuro Toru. I made some drinks and sandwiches. Do you want some?"
Toru Amuro?
Several people in the room were stunned.
Yes! Amuro Toru is here too, as is Dr. Shinde.
Oh my goodness, I completely forgot about these two people.
Toru Amuro and Vermouth have been in the lobby with Conan Edogawa and Heiji Hattori, but these two people were so focused on reasoning that they didn't notice Toru Amuro and Vermouth at all.
While Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha went out to call people, Amuro Toru happened to want to use his special talents as a character to make drinks and midnight snacks for everyone, so he ran into the kitchen.
Vermouth also followed into the kitchen with a perfect and gentle smile, saying that she wanted to help. Of course, she did not actually help, but instead caused a lot of trouble for Amuro Toru.
The two of them tacitly acted out the acts of two gentle, respectable adult men who had just met. They didn't say anything extra, but their occasional eye contact was full of temptation and vigilance.
Because of the joining of Vermouth, Toru Amuro's food preparation progress bar was stretched a lot. He was almost done when several children brought several basins full of soup and poured them on Ogura and others.
The hall suddenly became noisy. Before the two gentle and polite people could show their kindness, the children took everyone to the bathroom. Only Mouri Ran, Suzuki Sonoko and Toyama Kazuha were left to clean up the spilled soup.
Vermouth and Toru Amuro then strode forward, found the cleaning tools, and cleaned up with Mouri Ran and the other two.
Seeing several children approaching and running into the room where Komatsu was, Toru Amuro thought for a moment, and told Ran Mouri and the other two that he had made some food and asked them if they needed it.
After being politely declined by Mao Lilan and the other two, he took the opportunity to offer to give some to the children.
Hattori Heiji opened the door and said blankly, "Why are you still here?"
Toru Amuro:......
Vermouth, who came a step behind Amuro Toru, said with a smile: "Mr. Amuro is a good cook. He was afraid that everyone would be hungry, so he made food for everyone. I tasted it and it tasted very good."
Kojima Genta exclaimed, "It smells really good! I'm hungry!"
Except for Kojima Genta, everyone else looked uninterested. Vermouth asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Yoshida Ayumi and the other two felt that Dr. Shinide, who was invited by Mori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, was one of their own, so they did not hide it and told each other the whole story.
Toru Amuro seemed to be thinking about something. These kids spoke clearly, had strict logic, were brave, and did things in an organized manner. They were very suitable to join the Neon Public Security Bureau.
I'll ask Yuya Kazama later if the public security department has any training plans for young people.
Vermouth didn't think so much. She never thought of letting the people around Mouri Ran and Edogawa Conan get close to the organization. Oh, Si Xuanyu doesn't count. He is not someone she can control.
After listening to the children's distress, Vermouth just scratched her head slightly, then hesitantly proposed an idea: "Mr. Eguchi looks a lot like the missing Tsuruta, right? Maybe, maybe we can take this opportunity to defraud Mr. Inoue?"
When Edogawa Conan heard someone mention Eguchi, his eyes lit up slightly, but the others were more interested in the "fraud".
Vermouth smiled shyly, then squatted down and whispered her thoughts to a few people.
Yoshida Ayumi and the other two clapped their hands immediately: "That sounds interesting... ahem, I mean, it sounds like it will be very effective!"
"Then let's go find Mr. Eguchi with Genta and Conan."
Kojima Genta was still holding an Amuro Toru sandwich in his hand, but he said mercilessly: "Dr. Shinde thought of a solution before Mr. Amuro. He is indeed a detective with poor performance. He doesn't fit the image of Sherlock Holmes and Watson at all."
Vermouth waved her hands in embarrassment: "Don't say that. I can only associate this with the story because I have heard a lot of gossip in the hospital. It's not Mr. Amuro's fault that he doesn't have good professional skills. Maybe he will improve after encountering more cases in the future."
Toru Amuro: ...Thank you.
The children first gave their cell phones and other sundries along with clean pajamas to the people who were taking a bath. Then Conan Edogawa, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima went to find Eguchi and expressed their request.
Eguchi was very hesitant, but his good-natured personality made it impossible for him to refuse the children's earnest requests, not to mention the strong moral reason of "finding the truth for his friend."
Not long after, a scream was heard from the bathroom where Inoue was.
Ogura, who was halfway through taking a shower, and Tanaka, who had already finished, were startled. They rushed out of the bathroom wrapped in the clean bathrobes that had just been delivered, and saw that everyone was gathered in one place. The lights in that section were all dimmed, and Inoue's voice came from there.
When Komatsu and the others saw Ogura and Tanaka rushing over, they immediately went over to cover their mouths and took them to the bathroom where Inoue was.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard Inoue's terrified cry in the bathroom: "I didn't mean it! Tsuruta! Don't come to me! I didn't mean it! I didn't mean it! You said it too harshly! I was just impulsive! The dagger was not sharp at all, and I didn't know I could stab you to death like that! Don't come to me! Let me go!"
