Detective Conan's Desperate Cry

Chapter 42 Satan's Concealment

Dr. A Li's house.

Conan, Dr. Ali and Xiao Ai had breakfast together.

"I said, Shinichi, what's going on with this serial murder case? It feels like the police haven't made any progress!" Dr. Ali asked, holding a four-layer sandwich and planning to spread some peanut butter on it.

"Crack!" A straight red mark immediately appeared on the chubby big hand. Dr. A Li looked at the peanut butter eagerly, looked down at the four-layer sandwich with healthy green vegetables in his hand, and sighed slightly.

Hui Yuanai closed his eyes and retracted his chopsticks, and said leisurely: "Dr. A Li, as I said, your weight is seriously overweight, you must control your diet reasonably."

Dr. A Li sighed again: "Yes..." The ending was long and full of bitterness.

Conan cast drooping eyes on one side, and complained wildly in his heart, "Hehehe, doctor, your weight is really too high, it's hard to say!" '

"I haven't been paying attention to the police's situation recently, but Uncle Maori already knows that the murderer did not do the bombing, and speculates that the murderer and the 'SATAN' note at the scene are not the same person.

"The police already know that the murderer's next target is Yukiko Nakamura. If the murderer maintains his crime frequency, he will do it tonight. The Mumu Police Department sent dozens of plainclothes policemen to sneak into the hotel, and arrangements were made around the hotel. Snipers and SWAT."

"So? You don't mean to say that the police are going to come and catch a turtle?" Xiao Ai crossed her arms and leaned back on the chair, staring sharply at Conan who was about to stuff a sandwich into his mouth.

"Huh?" As soon as the sandwich was in his mouth, Conan stopped moving. He looked at Xiao Ai with wide eyes, bit off the bite of the sandwich, and chewed slowly, "It can be said that the murderer is so daring, it doesn't seem to be Not afraid of being caught by the police."

Xiao Ai squinted her eyes, twitched her lips, and gave a meaningful smile: "But he has a strong anti-reconnaissance awareness, doesn't he? You were in the hotel when yesterday's case happened, and he just ran away from your nose." ? Big detective?"

"..." Conan was speechless, but what Xiao Ai said was reasonable. He was on the side when the case happened, and there was Satan, Heiji, and an agent next to him, and he let the prisoner slip away just like that...

"Yes!" Dr. A Li agreed with Xiao Ai's words, "Didn't Xiaolan and the others meet the criminal? Someone called the police as soon as the case happened, and the police rushed to the hotel and blocked the exit. According to Xiaolan and the others The description looked for a man who smelled of paint, had a lighter and matches, checked all the cameras, and found nothing."

"It's not that nothing was found. At the east end of the corridor, the police found the clothes that had been changed at the corner of the floor. There was a strong smell of paint. They also found a lighter and matches." Conan After thinking about it, "A pair of discarded rubber gloves, and the mask that was replaced."

Dr. A Li stopped to take another bite, "Human face, mask?"

Conan didn't speak, just nodded.

The three of them knew what this meant, disguised, even if the suspect could be found on the camera, but when he took off the mask, he would look another way.

"Yi Rong..." Xiao Ai said in a low voice, "Didn't the police find anything in the camera? The deceased's room was the penultimate one on the west side, and the suspicious object was found on the east side of the corridor, and the elevator was in the middle of the corridor. Take the elevator as the center, then the dead man's room is at the left end of the elevator, and the right end of the elevator is where the suspicious objects are found.

As you said, Yukiko was the only guest staying in the room on the right side of the elevator that day; if someone left the scene and turned to the right side of the elevator when the crime happened, it is impossible for the camera not to detect it! "

"That's true, but it's just a bit unfortunate. On that day, the camera on the XX floor was under maintenance, and it could only take pictures up to the elevator. And when the incident happened, Hattori and I rushed in directly. If anyone goes to the east of the corridor If that's the case, Yukiko will definitely..." As he spoke, Conan suddenly stopped, and even put down the sandwich in his hand, and instead rested his chin with one hand.

"Shinichi...?" Seeing that Conan stopped talking suddenly, Dr. Ali was a little puzzled. He wanted to ask again, but Haibara tugged at his clothes and shook his head to signal that he didn't need to ask any more.

Dr. Ali immediately understood, and silently ate another sandwich. Xiao Ai saw that what he sandwiched was all vegetables, so she didn't care anymore.

Conan was lost in thought.

"Wait, I remember that Hattori and I rushed in after Satan kicked open the door. Satan was outside, and her position was just right to spy on the entire corridor..." Also, at the hotel at that time, he noticed a line of sight behind him , seemed to penetrate his body and reach the... Satan... in front of him?
That look was real, Conan realized, Satan couldn't have been unaware.She could even easily know his identity, so how could she not notice the abnormal situation at the scene?

Conan only realized now that before and after the incident, Satan had been leaning against the corner on the west side of the corridor, and his eyes were always on his side from time to time. At first, he thought he was looking at him...

What if Satan wasn't looking at him in the first place?Instead, he looked behind him, the suspect who dispersed with the crowd.And the camera, the staff said, was fine before the incident, but after the incident, thick smoke was billowing, and somehow it broke down.

The location of the camera is the closest to Satan...

'Satan, what on earth do you know? 'Conan narrowed his eyes.

'Or, from the very beginning, you knew who the prisoner was, but you still chose to conceal it? '
