"The call came."

Sera Masumi whispered to Conan, then took out the bow-tie voice changer and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

Sera Masumi said to the other end of the phone in the voice of Koizumi Kunio.

She clamped the receiver of the phone between her ear and shoulder, and at the same time pressed the communication button on the Youth Detective Corps badge with one hand, and simultaneously shared the content of her conversation with the other party to Conan.

"The deadline is up, has the procedure been completed?"

A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's done."

Sera Masumi said.

"Oh."

A woman's chuckle came from the other end of the phone, and then Sera Masumi heard the woman's slightly sarcastic tone:

"Didn't you say last time that it couldn't be completed within the deadline? This time I only gave you an extension of two days, so why did you finish it all at once?"

Sera Masumi was slightly surprised when she heard this, but after considering her words, she said:

"Don't you know the reason?"

"Our procedures haven't been completed yet, but you dare to kill Kawasaki. Don't you know how many guests will check in here in a day? What if I get caught?"

Sera Masumi deliberately emphasized her tone, making her voice a bit sulky.

Through contact with Koizumi Kunio, Sera Masumi believes that Koizumi Kunio's character should respond like this at this moment.

Kunio Koizumi is the owner of a hot spring hotel, and he can pretend to be nonchalant after dismembering his friends.

Then after the incident was exposed, Koizumi Kunio even dared to take all the crimes directly for the sake of his family.

Therefore, Sera Masumi believes that Koizumi Kunio is by no means a weak character.

Kunio Koizumi with such a personality would definitely feel angry after his friend was brutally murdered by the other party, and after he was ridiculed by the other party for suddenly becoming more efficient in developing software.

"This is the punishment for breaking the agreement."

The tone of the woman on the other end of the phone did not change because of Sera Masumi's sullen expression.

"You must place your computer under parking space A-24 in the parking lot on the first floor of the Jingshui Hot Spring Hotel next to Kosen-an before two o'clock in the morning."

The woman on the other end of the phone gave instructions.

After hearing what the other party said, Sera Masumi felt a little relieved.

‘Since the other party called to hand over the matter according to the original plan, it means that the other party did not know that Koizumi Kunio was arrested and taken to the police station for dismembering the body. ’

‘And the other party has been unilaterally contacting “Kunio Koizumi” so far, so the parking lot on the first floor of Jingshui Hot Spring Hotel should be the final handover location. ’

‘So the other party should be squatting in a position where they can observe the parking lot. In this way, the range of the other party can be locked. ’

What Sera Masumi was more worried about was that the other party did not contact him through the phone in the hotel room.

Instead, he had to contact Kunizumi Kunio’s mobile phone to give instructions.

Since the hotel phone cannot be carried with you, it means that the other party cannot, like a kidnapper carrying out extortion, convey several instructions to himself to disrupt the plans of the possible police.

Sera Masumi also envisioned a way to trade.

That is, the other party first asked "Furuizumi Kunio" to come outside the hotel alone, and then sneaked into the hotel to steal the computer while "Furuizumi Kunio" was not in the hotel.

Although this method will inevitably expose the fact that Koizumi Kunio is no longer at Kosen-an.

But after all, they have computers here, which means they have the initiative.

Once the other party enters the hotel, you will have a geographical advantage.

Unfortunately, the other party seemed to have expected this.

"Are you going to kill me after I hand over my computer? Like you killed Kawasaki?"

Sera Masumi asked again.

"You can choose not to come."

She heard the other party just say a few words and then hung up the phone.

After Sera Masumi put down the receiver, she released the communication button of the communicator.

‘It seems that the other party has determined that Mr. Koizumi will not disobey their orders for the sake of his family. ’

Sera Masumi was thinking in her heart, and then heard a subtle sound from the badge on her collar:

"Miss Sera, as long as I move about two hundred meters from my current position, I can see the parking lot of the Jingshui Hot Spring Hotel."

"It's still more than half an hour before two o'clock in the morning. You can wait until the last minute to come out."

"Okay, be safe."

Sera Masumi gave instructions and then began to put the computer into her bag.

She kept holding her cell phone and checking the time on it.

And waiting for news from Conan.

'Generally speaking, the telephones in the guest rooms of Kosenan are internal telephones, which only support communication within the hotel. ’

'But Koizumi Kunio's room is not an ordinary guest room. The phone in his room can also be called from outside as long as he knows the number. ’

‘If you use the help of the police, you may be able to track the other party’s location, but in that case, the risk of exposure will also increase accordingly. ’

Masumi Sera is still a little worried about the strength of the Kanagawa Prefecture police.

Nearly 15 minutes passed, and Masumi Sera asked about Conan's situation again.

Unfortunately, Conan was unable to find any clues.

"It seems that we have to bring the computer over before the other party will show up."

After saying this, Sera Masumi picked up her bag and walked to the door, then opened the door and walked out.

However, just as Sera Masumi left the room, her ears caught a slight sound behind her.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly rose in her heart.

She bent her knees and lowered her body, and then saw a silver-white dagger flashing out from above her head.

A strand of black hair slowly fell from the air.

If Sera Masumi's action just now was half a second slower, I'm afraid the dagger could easily cut her vertebral artery, or damage her spinal cord, endangering her life.

Sera Masumi's reaction was extremely fast.

After dodging the opponent's dagger attack, she seized the flaw after the opponent's attack failed,

and directly punched the inside of the opponent's arm with her left hand, accurately hitting the ulnar nerve on the inside of the opponent's arm.

When the ulnar nerve is attacked, it will bring strong pain and numbness, and will also damage the movement and sensory functions of the forearm.

*hiss——*

The sound of gasping came from the mouth of the attacker.

However, before the opponent could make the next step, he felt that his right wrist holding the dagger was grabbed by Sera Masumi.

Sera Masumi's right hand suddenly exerted force, exerting a strong force on the radial styloid process of the opponent's right wrist. With a "click", the dagger in the opponent's hand fell uncontrollably.

The black hair slowly fell to the ground, but the dagger that also fell due to gravity did not make a sound like hair falling to the ground.

Because the dagger was steadily caught by Sera Masumi's outstretched left foot.

Then she lifted her foot upwards, and the dagger flew back into the air.

Sera Masumi stretched out her left hand and grabbed the dagger, while her right hand still kept the posture of tightly holding the opponent's wrist.

She raised her eyes and looked fiercely at the person who attacked her.

Although the other party had basically covered most of his facial features.

But Sera Masumi still saw the conspicuous swallowtail butterfly tattoo on the other party's exposed left eye.
