Chapter 9
In a corner of a bustling city, the aroma of coffee permeates the Polo Cafe. Toru Amuro, dressed in a neat uniform, skillfully shuttles between tables, serving customers with a smile.
It was an ordinary afternoon, and the sun shone through the window onto the wooden tabletop. Toru Amuro was cleaning up the table after the guests left, and inadvertently, the vibration of his mobile phone broke the tranquility. He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a message from his subordinate Yuya Kazami.
Toru Amuro's eyes became sharp in an instant, he quickly found an excuse to ask for leave, and then hurriedly left the cafe.
"Have you confirmed the authenticity of the video and photos?" Toru Amuro asked as soon as he met Yuya Kazami.
"Confirmed, it's true. Should we take action immediately?" Yuya Kazami looked serious. He wanted to lead the team to arrest the offenders immediately, but he knew that he couldn't be too impulsive, so he suppressed his heart.
After thinking for a moment, Toru Amuro said, "Kazemi, you will lead the team to arrest them later, and bring more people."
"Yes!" Yuya Kazami nodded and left.
It's not that Toru Amuro doesn't want to act personally, he's just worried that this is a bait, he's still an undercover agent, so he has to be careful.
There are two reasons for letting Kazami go, one is that he is trustworthy, and the other is that he is the one who received the email, so it's much less risky for him to go.
Toru Amuro returned to a safe house and listened to Kazami's actions through the headset.
Not long after, Kazami's report came:
"There is indeed a trading place under the bar, and everyone inside is unconscious, no, it seems that someone is awake!"
Since it has been a while since the fifth personality launched the stun shells, some people with good physical fitness have woken up one after another.
"Catch them, don't let anyone go." Toru Amuro ordered, and at the same time he was full of doubts, who on earth has such ability, not only can he find things that he can't find, but also can stun so many people at once.
He repeatedly checked the emails sent by the other party to Yuya Kazami, and made a profile of the man in his heart.
More than ten minutes later, Amuro Toru was still thinking, and Yuya Kazami's actions came to an end:
"Mr. Furuya, it was found that many things in the single rooms here have been emptied. According to the relevant person in charge, there were many things here before this morning."
The person who took action was definitely not just one person. Amuro Toru thought so, and then issued instructions: "Hurry up and arrest those who should be arrested and confiscate those who should be confiscated, and then retreat immediately."
The mobile phone belonging to the Black Organization suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Gin: "Go and check the origin and destination of the people who attacked Boss and others this morning."
Although he was still full of doubts about the incident at the underground trading venue, he temporarily let Yuya Kazami handle the follow-up affairs, and then turned to the new task assigned by the organization.
Amuro Toru started to investigate the morning attack. He used his connections and resources in the organization to carefully sort out every clue.
There were two attackers, but he was inclined to believe that there were more than two, because at least one of them was hiding to release the fog.
None of the surveillance cameras captured any useful clues, or the parts that were captured were deleted. He guessed that this was a gang crime, and there was probably an information expert in the gang.
Boss and Cook originally had a trading mission today, and all the weapons hidden by Boss were emptied. This clue made Amuro Toru think of the underground trading venue from time to time.
The people who did these two things might be the same group of people.
At night, the Black Organization and the Public Security Bureau were investigating what the Fifth Personality did in this mission, and Edogawa Conan was also thinking about the possible reasons for Yanagi's disappearance.
And the Fifth Personality people were drawing lots.
[Prophet (Priest): I will enable random tagging. Whoever is tagged later will spin the turntable.
Bounty Hunter (Mercenary): You are all nervous, classmates.

Prophet (Priest): Don't be too stressed, it doesn't matter what you get.
Novel Creator (Novelist): Okay, wait for me for half an hour, I'll go take a shower, change clothes and wash my hands. 】
Mochizuki closed the channel in her brain, hummed a song and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She also changed into a gorgeous dress and washed her hands three times.
"Okay, let's start!"
[Task Checker: Novelist is using the turntable to draw... Congratulations on getting the 'Top Fighting' template × 1, loaded.

Novel creator (novelist): I... will work hard and will not disappoint the organization's expectations of me. [Soul-vomiting]
Mochizuki turned off the channel in her brain and looked up at the ceiling. She seemed to be gray. A minute later, she came back to her senses and her eyes were burning with fighting spirit:
Let me see what those powerful female protagonists did after crossing over to Conan!
Mochizuki searched for related fan fiction in her mind and found quite a few. She read them with relish.
Relief? Not to mention that the timeline of crossing over is too late, with the undertaker, everyone can be resurrected; join the winery? There are cheerleaders and Sawada You, two computer experts, so she doesn't need to collect information slowly and bitterly; join the police? There are gardeners at the blasting site, and being a policeman is too tiring. She doesn't like this country very much, so this is not suitable for her...
Forget it, she should just be a novelist honestly and participate in more missions.
After she figured it out, she closed the fan fiction, changed her clothes, and sat in front of the computer to write: Gold Finger Modo Modo.
Time passed, the sun rose, and in the Maori Detective Agency,
"Sister Xiaolan, Brother Kitagawa and I agreed yesterday to go out together today. I'm going to find him now." Edogawa Conan said after dinner.
"Eh? Your relationship is getting better so fast, go ahead, and remember to come back early." Maori Ran replied with a smile.
"Okay--"
In the Poirot Cafe, Kitagawa Anshu ate the signature sandwich, which didn't taste so amazing, probably because Amuro Toru asked for leave, and he wanted him to make more food for him to try after Morobushi Keimitsu was resurrected.
He ordered another cup of coffee, and Edogawa Conan came.
"How long will it take you? Let's go quickly."
"Why are you more anxious than me? Aren't you afraid that I will tie you up or something?" Kitagawa Anshu speeded up the coffee.
"Although we haven't known each other for long, I believe you are just a person with a slightly bad character, not a bad person." Edogawa Conan said seriously.
Kitagawa Anshu raised his eyebrows: "You trust others so easily? Don't be betrayed one day."
"Hey, I came to this conclusion after observation and reasoning, how can I trust others casually." Edogawa Conan thought he was a bit arbitrary.
Kitagawa Anshu did not continue the topic: "I'm fine, let's go, the target is Toudou University!"
The two took a taxi to the school and went straight to the office of Yanagi's tutor.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" The middle-aged man had a blessed face and a bright Mediterranean on his head.
This time, Kitagawa Apricot spoke first: "Hello, I am Liu Zhizi's friend. I want to ask you if she has been in school recently. I haven't contacted her for several days."
Conan added: "And my brother Kitagawa and I went to my sister's house yesterday but didn't find her. The landlady said she had quit the lease a long time ago."
The middle-aged man shook his head: "Liu Zhizi asked for a long vacation from the school a month ago. I haven't seen her during this period. The reason for her leave was that she was invited to work in a research institute and wanted to spend more time there to improve herself. She seemed to have met someone from the research institute at a seminar, and then was introduced by that person..."
"Do you know more about that research institute? I'm so worried about my sister." Conan couldn't help asking.
"Sorry, I have forgotten it, because it's just a small research institute that's not well-known, so I don't have any impression of it now." The middle-aged man scratched his head, "Leave me your contact information, and I'll tell you if I think of it one day."
"Okay, thank you." Kitagawa Apricot thanked him and took the pen to write down his contact information. "I'm sorry to bother you, we'll leave now."
"It's okay, it's okay, Yanagi is very talented, and I'm worried about her now, too. If you have any news, please let me know."
Kitagawa Anshu nodded and left the office with Conanroom.
"Don't call the police for an unknown research institute. Just think about it, it's a big problem. What does your friend think? Why did she join that research institute?" Conan couldn't figure it out.
"I suddenly remembered that she seemed to have told me a month ago that she met some people with the same ideas as her. During that time, she focused on the theory of 'reverse growth'. Maybe the research institute she joined was studying this." Beichuan Xingshu deduced.
Conan took over his words: "If she was threatened after she found out that the research institute had illegal matters after joining, then the following things would make sense."
Reverse growth, Conan is familiar with it, after all, he is now in the state of 'reverse growth'.
Conan frowned, if it is really that organization, it will be troublesome.
"It's okay, let's ask her classmates again, in case someone knows something, don't frown." Beichuan Xingshu touched Conan's forehead.
"You are right, we still have a chance."
