The case happened very suddenly and ended very quickly.

I don't know if the murderer's method was too simple or Conan was too smart. When Lu Ming and Okino Yoko finished dinner tonight and left the box, they saw the police escorting the murderer away from the scene.

"Officer Megure, is the case solved?" Lu Ming asked Officer Megure who was handling the follow-up work.

Officer Megure nodded and pointed at Kogoro who was sitting on the ground with his head hanging down:"This time it is all thanks to Brother Maori. The sleeping Kogoro is really worthy of his reputation."

Lu Ming glanced at Kogoro. The effect of the anesthetic had not yet worn off. Kogoro closed his eyes and sat there motionless like a statue.

Yoko Okino interrupted and asked:"What about the murderer's motive for killing? Did he tell it?"

From the first sight of Yoko Okino, Officer Megure felt that he seemed to have seen this girl somewhere. Now that she asked about it, Officer Megure looked at her carefully. Suddenly, a beautiful face emerged in his mind. He remembered it and clapped his hands and said:"You are not that……"

"It's me, Officer Megure. Long time no see."Okino Yoko smiled and nodded, admitting her identity.

"Ah, it's really you." Officer Megure looked at Okino Yoko, then at Lu Ming, and showed a meaningful smile. This young man is really not simple. He knows that the closer you are to the water, the better.

Lu Ming knew that Officer Megure had misunderstood their relationship, and he was too lazy to explain. He knew that even if he explained, Officer Megure would not believe it.

As a public figure, it is normal to explain when being seen on a date. I understand, I understand.

Lu Ming coughed lightly:"Officer Megure, the motive for the murder"

"The motive for the murder was that the deceased discovered that the murderer had used his students' papers and published them under his own name, so he used this to blackmail the murderer. The murderer could no longer tolerate this, so he decided to kill."

"So that's how it is." Okino Yoko sighed:"It turns out that my greed has ruined me."

"Yes."Inspector Megure agreed with what Okino Yoko said:"Once people cannot control their greed, they will easily lose themselves and even commit crimes."

It was already late, so he said goodbye to Inspector Megure and Xiaolan. Kogoro was still sleeping, so it was inconvenient to disturb him. Lu Ming and Okino Yoko returned to their apartment.

"Then, I'll call you tomorrow?" At the door of their home, Okino Yoko looked at Lu Ming and said with a smile.

Lu Ming nodded and reminded:"Go to the house and rest early, don't sleep too late."

"I know, you too."

"OK, good night then, see you tomorrow"

"See you tomorrow."

After returning to the house, Lu Ming took a comfortable bath and lay on the bed. It was getting late. When he was about to turn off the lights and go to bed, the phone on the bedside table rang.

Who would call him so late?

With doubts, Lu Ming picked up the phone and saw Gin's number on the screen.

Lu Ming frowned. Why would he call him so late?

"Hello?" Lu Ming answered the phone.

"Fenjiu, I heard from Vodka that the mission failed?" Gin's voice was still so low, even giving people a feeling of being in a cold kiln, and feeling cold from the heart.

But Lu Ming didn't feel that way. He crossed his legs and said,"It can't be considered a complete failure. At least Miyano Akemi is dead. I just didn't expect that she would actually bring a fake key with her. It was a trick she played on me."

"Didn't you search her thoroughly?"

"Of course I searched. Oh, by the way, it seems there are three places I didn’t search."

"Three?" Gin's tone sounded a little unkind.

Lu Ming tapped his toes:"I didn't search her chest, underwear, and shoes. Now I think the real key should be hidden somewhere in these three places."

Gin was silent for a long time, and then he continued:"Forget about this matter. I called you this time to tell you something. Shirley escaped from the organization."

"Escaped?" Lu Ming almost laughed out loud:"Gin, if I remember correctly, wasn't Shirley imprisoned in the gas chamber by you? That's a secret room, and now you tell me that she's gone? Are you kidding me?"

"I'm not kidding you." Gin snorted coldly:"It's true that Shirley ran away"

"So you're calling me so I can find someone for you? Please, I'm busy."

"According to analysis, Shirley is likely to appear in the Mihua area."Ignoring Lu Ming's complaints, Gin said,"I don't need you to go out of your way to look for her. Once you find any trace of Shirley, report to me immediately."

"OK, I got it." Lu Ming lay down and said,"Anything else? If not, I'll hang up first."

"There is one more thing."

Lu Ming:"……"
