Conan: I'm really not a model worker at a winery

Chapter 329 - The Hidden Assassin
"Eh?! Xiaolan, you didn't lie to me, did you? Officer Sato was attacked!?"

Mihuacho [-]-chome, in the villa, Lie jumped up from the sofa holding the phone.

At the same time, he screamed so that Hiroki, who was typing on the computer, turned to look at him.

At this time, Noah also kindly amplified the call content through a small speaker:
"It's true, just a few hours ago... However, Officer Sato is temporarily out of danger, but is still in a coma..."

From the voice alone, one could hear Xiaolan's depression.

Lie and Hongshu looked at each other, and took a silent breath, "Well, Xiaolan~ Don't worry too much, I'll go and see Officer Sato later, she will be fine~"

"Ah? It's okay, Mr. Lie. At the hospital, the police are helping to take care of Officer Sato. Mr. Lin should take good care of his injuries, right?"

"...Ah? Rehabilitation? What kind of injury?"

Lie was a little confused.

In front of the computer, Hong Shu supported his forehead, and then frantically waved his right hand to gesture to Lie.

Mao Lilan's doubtful voice also came from the loudspeaker: "Eh? A few days ago, when Conan came back, he told me that Mr. Lin's hand is not..."

"Oh~ that's right! I had a broken bone, I almost forgot..." Lie remembered that his hand was still in a 'broken' state, and hurriedly shouted, "Well, well, I'll go see it when I have time Look at Police Officer Sato, don't worry, I have a small problem with my hands~ Xiaolan, you are the one, don't worry too much!"

"Ok, I know……"

"Oh, by the way, where's Conan? Is he okay? Did you get any fright?"

"That's not the case, but Conan was taken to the Metropolitan Police Department by Officer Matsuda just now, saying that he wanted to investigate this case together."

"Oh~ that's fine, Xiaolan, you should go to bed early today!"

After saying a few polite words at the end, Lie hung up the phone.

Then he threw the phone away, fell back on the sofa, and frantically grabbed his white hair: "Ahhhh! How could it be like this..."

How could the police be sniped!

The criminals in Tokyo are too rampant!
"Brother Yan had expected it..." Lie Cangsang looked at the ceiling and sighed with compassion.

When Noah told him to pay attention to the police, he didn't pay much attention to it, and wanted to wait a few days before going to the police station.

As a result, something happened the next day after I finished speaking!

"Really... Hiroki, you stay at home well, I'll go to the hospital to take a look~"

Lie weakly waved his hands, and dragged his tired body to go out.

Because his task is mainly to take care of people related to Conan, in a sense, he is not here this time, it is his dereliction of duty.

……

Police Department.

Matsuda Jinhei and Conan sat side by side in an empty conference room, constantly rummaging through a stack of files for the investigation details of the case a year ago, including some suspicious points.

Officer Takagi sitting across from them was also helping to find them.

During the search process, several people also had a general understanding of the case:
——One year ago, the doctor who was killed was Ninoho, a surgeon at the Affiliated Hospital of Tohto University.

The deceased was found in his own home, and the scene was very clear, only a scalpel was left beside the place where the deceased fell.

According to the knife marks on the neck of the deceased, the police judged that the knife was the knife that cut Ninoho's throat, and during the investigation at the time, it was believed that the knife holder was probably left-handed and cut the opponent's neck from behind.

However, the strange thing is that the investigation of this matter was well-founded, but it was suddenly closed as a suicide incident...

Both Matsuda Jinpei and Conan were a little confused.

Fortunately, Officer Megure, who came to talk to them later and worked overtime, explained this to them:

At that time, a police department leading the team died of a sudden heart attack during the investigation, and the family members made a lot of trouble, so the case was closed so hastily in the end.

but……

"In this dossier, the names of the suspects they investigated have been redacted." Matsuda Jinhei took out a dossier and rolled his eyes, "How do we check this?"

Officer Megure was embarrassed for a moment, looked at Conan with some embarrassment, then sneakily pulled Matsuda Jinpei aside, and whispered in his ear:

"Many people knew about this incident at the time, but you were obsessed with the bombing at that time... The person they investigated at the Youcheng Police Department was the only son of our criminal minister, Toshiya Odagiri."

"...The son of Minister Odagiri?"

Matsuda was stunned for a moment.

Officer Mu Mu just wanted to say that this was the internal information of the Metropolitan Police Department, and when he lowered his head, he saw that Conan had already moved beside them, with a dazed look on his face.

Officer Mumu: "..."

They shouldn't have brought irrelevant people back, hey!
Matsuda Jinpei ignored Police Officer Megure's resentment towards him, nodded his head on his own, returned to the table, and continued to pick up a pen to take notes in his notebook.

"That is to say, when investigating this matter, they discovered the suspect...that is, the minister's son had an altercation with the deceased, right?"

Matsuda Jinpei transcribed the information in the dossier that might help them investigate the incident.

Conan also continued to help in the past.

"The minister's son is left-handed?" Matsuda Jinpei asked Police Officer Megure.

The latter replied speechlessly: "It's more than that, both father and son are left-handed..."

Because the prisoner was not found in the end, and the case was hastily closed with suicide, they themselves doubted their boss and his boss' son... But, they really didn't have any evidence.

Matsuda Jinpei raised his head and found Officer Megure's sad face, and comforted him, "Police Department Megure, don't be so sad. I don't think someone like the Minister would kill a surgeon who is not well-known to death."

It is well known that Nishinoho is not very popular, and he has even offended many people, so there are not many people who are suspected of crimes, but there are not many left-handed people.

"...I know this too, and the minister can't possibly have a motive for killing, but..."

Police officer Megure looked at Matsuda Jinpei confusedly.

What worries him is, if the minister's son really did it, will the minister cover it up for others?
"Officer Megure, you seem to be narrow-minded." Matsuda Jinpei seemed to see through the heart of Officer Megure, "If the minister wants to protect his son, there is no need to conduct a new investigation..."

These words reassured Officer Megure a little, "That's right..."

"By the way, Officer Meguro, did the family members of the police department who died outside have any conflicts with the police?"

Conan suddenly asked cutely.

Police Officer Mumu lowered his head, "Yes, especially the son of the Youcheng Police Department, who always thought that the people who were monitoring the target did not send his father to the hospital in time, which led to the death of the Youcheng Police Department..."
