Chapter 27 Toru Amuro
How did he do it?
Because Genta and others who were lost in Kota's toys complained that Conan and Haibara Ai "left them to solve the case", this problem has been bothering Conan for more than an hour.
Things about the detective solving the case were more important to him than anything else.
After dinner at Ji Xing's house, Ji Xing sent Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko home in turn, leaving only himself and Haibara Ai. Conan finally couldn't help but ask: "Through the observation of human body shape, can it really be said?" Lock down the identity of the murderer immediately? Sister Xiaolan is completely unable to do such a thing."
Ji Xing looked at him and said with a smile: "Are you used to calling your junior sister Mao Lilan and sister Xiaolan?"
"Uh..." Conan said awkwardly, "I almost forgot to mention it. I don't want Xiaolan to be involved in that organization's affairs. If she knows that I have become smaller, she will definitely get involved and be in danger, so I'd like to trouble Senior Ji Xing." Don’t tell her who I am.”
Ji Xing: "Yeah. Having said that, being a child is sometimes quite convenient. A seven or eight-year-old boy, even if he is taken to the women's bathroom by his elders, he will only get a few complaints..."
Conan's face turned red.
Next to him, Haiyuan Aixu squinted his eyes and looked over: "That's it, pervert."
“Wha, why is that so!” Conan stuttered: “Don’t change the topic to random things! Senior Ji Xing, how on earth did you spot the criminal at a glance?”
"Haha." Ji Xing smiled lowly: "The state of the prisoner is different from other people. The more people you kill, the stronger your eyesight will be."
"!" Conan hesitated for a moment, his face turned from red to pale, and the next moment he exhaled again and said angrily: "You're here again, it's really a bad idea."
He looked thoughtful and said: "If you don't want to say it, forget it. You must have some special skills, such as reverse analysis and verbal fraud? If you encounter some complex cases, your eyesight will not be fully applicable. By then, You again..."
“I’m not a detective, so if it doesn’t apply, just don’t apply it.” Ji Xing said.
“…cough!” Conan choked. You are not a detective. You solved the case faster than me today!
Haihara Ai couldn't help but smile.
Ji Xing also smiled and stopped.
“Okay, I’ll send you here. Remember my phone number. See you later.”
“Goodbye~” Haiyuan Ai waved goodbye.
Ji Xing waved his hand without looking back and gradually disappeared from the sight of the two of them. He turned around a street and suddenly looked in another direction.
His gaze stayed for two seconds, and he went straight home.
In the direction he was looking, there was a car parked on the side of the road. A young man with a healthy complexion wearing a knitted hat was silent for two seconds and lit a cigarette.
“It was discovered…”
“He is indeed a dangerous man.”
On the other side, walking on the way home, Conan's face showed heaviness again.
“I’ve killed a lot of people... My intuition tells me that Ji Xing Qixin must have really killed people.”
“It’s not surprising that the police have killed criminals.”
Hearing this, Conan glanced at Haiyuan Ai, who was walking briskly and with a smile on his face, and said, "You are in a good mood, Haiyuan. Is it because you have verified that your sister is still alive?"
“Hmm~” Haihara Ai confirmed.
"But aren't you surprised by this mysterious guy Ji Xing Qixin? Aren't you worried that he actually..." Conan hesitated.
Conan rolled his eyes quietly. You are the one who usually likes to think about things, but now you are telling me not to think too much? It seemed that Huiyuan's sister was really important to her. She was so important that Ji Xing saved her sister that she was not willing to doubt Ji Xing, or even trust her.
This look like a little girl only appeared in front of Dr. A Li and me before, but now there is another Ji Xingqi Xin?
Thinking that Haiyuan has always felt like someone is following him recently, he is under a lot of pressure and worried every day. Looking at Haiyuan who has shown a happy mood after a long time, Conan is not disappointed anymore.
‘Forget it, pay more attention to it in the future and let Haiyuan spend more time happy. ’
I never expected that extreme joy would lead to sorrow.
Back to Dr. Ali that night, Haibara felt a little uncomfortable. He started to have a fever late at night. The next morning, the fever reached nearly 40 degrees, making it difficult to get out of bed.
Conan got the news and hurried to Dr. A Li’s house.
…
At the same time, a few days later, Ji Xing arrived at the club again in his stepfather's car.
"Director Kuroki has completed the preliminary preparations for the script in the past few days, and he is probably looking forward to reporting to you, the president." The stepfather parked the car and said with a smile: "If I knew that you came to the club this time just to raise a I don’t know what the reaction will be if I take away a sum of money, or a terrifying figure like 30 billion, which will almost affect the society’s transformation.”
"What are you afraid of? If you don't have enough money, just go to the bank for a loan. Why spend your own money?" Ji Xing said.
"What are you doing in a bank? You have to take risks." Stepfather shook his head helplessly: "Can't the laboratory you want to set up be delayed? I know you have been particularly fond of biology for a long time, but you are only in your third year of high school. , wouldn’t it be better to let the teacher take you to do some experiments when you are admitted to university?”
Go to university? Decades or hundreds of years?
"That's why I only mentioned 30 billion, instead of 100 billion or more." Ji Xing said.
“Then even I have to stop you.” The stepfather rolled his eyes and stopped trying to persuade him.
The father and son got out of the car and walked towards the club. When they reached the door, Ji Xing stopped and suddenly looked back, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
A young man with dark skin and light blond hair was wearing formal clothes and hurried towards the club with a document bag in his hand.
Noticing Ji Xing standing at the door, he stopped for a moment, showed some surprise at first, and then quickly lowered his head and greeted: "Hello, President! Hello, Vice President!"
“Who are you?” Ji Xing asked.
The young man said: "My name is Toru Amuro. I am a detective by profession. I am here for an interview at your club today."
Stepfather explained from the side: "Because we have started a new project, the club has been recruiting people in recent days. But... Detective? This profession is rare."
Toru Amuro smiled sheepishly: "I'm not a famous detective. I usually receive commissions to investigate extramarital affairs, and occasionally I have to work a few odd jobs to support myself.
Ah, but please believe me, I should be very suitable for the recruitment requirements of the club. After all, I am a detective. I am somewhat confident in logical reasoning, and my writing skills are not bad. "
Stepfather nodded: "Are you applying for a script editor? Indeed, if you have been a detective before, this position would be perfect..."
Ji Xingze suddenly said: "It looks like your skills are pretty good. Have you ever practiced karate?"
Toru Amuro hesitated for a moment, then laughed dryly: "Yes, that's it. You know, it's easy to get into trouble when investigating extramarital affairs."
"That's it... OK, you can go in. Recruitment matters are not our responsibility. I wish you a successful interview." Ji Xing said.
"Yes! Mr. President!" Toru Amuro entered the door with a respectful attitude and disappeared towards the stairs.
Ji Xingze took the elevator to the top floor with his stepfather and murmured in his heart: "I let Gin suffer a loss, and I thought I could calm down for a while, but it seems that the winery is still unwilling to 'let me go' easily..."
However, the identity of the person sent undercover to investigate... is actually a bit confusing.
