Metropolitan Police Department, Search Lesson 1.

When Megure Thirteen passed by, he saw two or three detectives surrounding Takagi Wataru, seemingly discussing something.

It must be because of Sato's blind date yesterday... According to his analysis, this kind of care from his seniors will probably last another two or three days before it passes.

Brother Takagi, hold on... Megure Thirteen didn't pay much attention.

I am preparing to go to the archives room to sort out dozens of files from this week and transfer them to the procuratorate.

Suddenly the name 'Ye Gengyi' came to my ears.

Mumu Shisan raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked over.

His intuition told him that a new case had occurred...

"What's going on?"

"Ah... police department..."

"Memu Police Department..."

After several criminal police officers said hello, they quickly made way for Takagi Wataru, who was constantly scratching his head and wiping sweat.

"Brother Takagi, what happened? I seem to have heard Brother Gengyi's name..." Megure Thirteen cast his gaze.

"Ah, that's it..."

Gao Mushe sorted out his thoughts and started talking about the police call Ye Gengyi made to him an hour ago...

A few minutes later.

Mumu Shisan was shocked.

A serial murder case, and it’s an unsolved case that the police have no clues about! The murderer is a ‘perverted artist’ who made the victims into wax figures?!

Remember, the last time was the old case of "son killing father" and "mother imprisoning son" more than ten years ago. He actually called Takagi directly. The good boy made a meritorious service again... Mu Mu Shi

San felt a little sour in his heart.

You should know that this kind of case is completely different from dispatching the police to arrest someone!

Thinking about his royal brother, Mouri Kogoro, every time he calls me, he looks like a plague god who is going to kill people wherever he goes!

There is still a gap between me and my younger brother... Mumu Shisan cursed in his heart and turned to ask:

"Where's Brother Gengyi? Is he still in the Metropolitan Police Department?"

After all, Takagi did not directly participate in the investigation of the case this time. According to common sense, even if the reporter is a technical expert from the police, he still needs to come here to explain the situation in detail.

"Mr. Ye went back after finishing the notes."

Takagi Wataru reported the truth: "Over there in the interrogation room, Officer Shiratori and Officer Sato were interrogating the prisoners. I came out to get materials, and then I was stopped here by several seniors..."

"I'm going back. I wonder if I can get home safely..." Mumu Shisan mumbled, walked to the window and looked outside, expecting to hear the first call from my brother.

Takagi Wataru: "???"

What, (⊙_⊙)?...Did you hear it wrong?

...

Here, Ye Gengyi is carrying several cans of coffee and walking back to 2-chome.

In his pocket, there was a bank card lying quietly. The account was opened overseas, and the security level was fairly reliable.

That woman in Belmod was a bit of a cheater, but when it came to paying, it was easy...

Just as he was thinking, a look from behind interrupted his thoughts.

Xiao Bai... Ye Geng touched his temples calmly.

【Sir, this is Judy Stelling.】

FBI started again? This is the first thought.

Belmode started again? This was the second thought.

But he soon suppressed this speculation for the time being.

because......

"Eh? Brother Gengyi!"

Conan's big head appears in view.

At the same moment, Judy Stelling, who was following behind, quickly hid in the crowd and pretended to be watching a roadside stall.

Well, I am now getting paid a lot of money by the Metropolitan Police Department, and Belmode is still pretending hard, just to make me feel angry and disgust me, so as not to...

"skillful."

Ye Gengyi responded, and his eyes turned to the two female high school students on the side.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko also said hello.

"Brother Gengyi, you came out to buy something." Mao Lilan noticed the coffee.

"New taste," Ye Geng nodded, and combined with the previous wax museum incident, casually reminded: "Go home early after school and don't wander around."

This street is not far from Didan High School, but along the way, they were the only people in uniforms they encountered.

Excluding the possibility of leaving early, Conan and Suzuki Sonoko should have accompanied Mao Lilan to the karate club for practice.

"Conan and Yuanzi accompanied me to the club." Mao Lilan explained, directly confirming Ye Gengyi's conjecture.

No, you have mistaken the logical relationship. It is because of Conan's presence that you are easily in danger... Ye Gengyi glanced at a certain boss.

Conan noticed his gaze: "???"

Is it an illusion...

"By the way, Brother Gengyi, do you know what 'x' means?"

Mao Lilan's voice brought him back to his thoughts.

x?

Conan looked up.

"Oh, no! Brother Genichi, you can't tell her!" Suzuki Sonoko quickly stopped her: "This is a punishment for those who don't listen carefully in class."

"oh."

Ye Gengyi's expression did not change, he just said "oh".

Actually...he didn't know what these two people were talking about.

Conan became even more curious when he saw this, and couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xiaolan, what is that?"

"In today's English class, Teacher Judy mentioned it," Mao Lilan explained: "She said it was a very cute mark..."

"It's useless, it's impossible for a child to know~" Suzuki Sonoko teased from the side, "right? Brother Genichi..."

What did the FBI say in class?

It shouldn't be anything important... Ye Gengyi nodded slightly and said 'hmm' again.

What?! Sure enough, Brother Gengyi also knows, then it must not be an ordinary thing!

Conan frowned and began to think deeply.

The meaning of the letter 'x'...

In algebra, it represents an unknown number, or a question, unknown, unclear, uncertain symbol;

X-rays are radioactive rays, and the

etc...

If it’s an ‘×’ that represents a cross, it’s an error. When typesetting in a publication, it means there’s a missing word, or it means having been divorced once...

"I'm still wondering if Conan can guess it," Mao Lilan continued, "By the way, Teacher Judy also said that it would be better for girls to know this mark."

girl?

Conan has a new association.

In this way, it seems that my mother often writes three or five 'x...' at the end of her letters, but even if I ask her now, I am afraid that given her character, she will not tell me simply...

..

hateful!

Conan scratched his head desperately, his face full of sadness.

What is it, what is it...

Without waiting for an answer, Mao Lilan seemed very open-minded and took the initiative to change the topic:

"Yuanzi, have you noticed that Teacher Judy's recent class style is different from before?"

"Yes, she was extremely serious when she first came here, and the content of her lectures was quite boring..."

After imitating a stereotyped expression in an exaggerated manner, Suzuki Sonoko added: "But things have changed a lot now. In addition to being more humorous, she will also teach us some simple English beyond the textbooks."

Therefore, ‘x’ is the abbreviation of daily English usage, or some simple pronouns... Ye Gengyi quickly thought of this possibility.
