Chapter 34 Jumping back and forth on the edge of Death's territory
"Haha, you must have a righteous heart, but you are still so young, don't learn from those old men and ladies, and just engage in superstition every day."
The old policeman taught him this way and completely forgot that he was also an old man: "You can come to me if you have anything, as long as you don't violate the regulations, I will try my best to help you."
...But we are actually already violating the rules.
Bai Shi coughed twice, got rid of the messy thoughts, thanked him and left.
This time I gained a lot, for example, he got the address of Tomoya Ogino's family. If he really couldn't find a breakthrough later, he could put on his vest and visit him...
It is actually a bit risky to come to the police station to check these information.
——If something happened to those people who were in the fore foot just after the fore foot was checked, then Shiraishi would undoubtedly be very suspicious.
But then I thought about it, compared to him, big guys like Kogoro Mori and Conan were obviously more suspicious. In the original work, seeing more than a thousand words passed, the two of them were not arrested... so I probably wouldn't have any problems.
Even if there is, this world is a society ruled by law after all, and catching people requires evidence. For Shiraishi, who has a vest, as long as he does not put his body in the elf ball and is not present to prove it? He can do so much.
"What a peaceful and friendly world..." The more Shiraishi thought, the better he was.
When I arrived home, there was more than an hour left before the mission was started.
After seeing the course schedule that will automatically change the date, and confirming that there was no class today, Shiraishi held a cup of butterfly and was lying on the window bored, waiting for the task to start.
After 1 hour, 10 minutes and 24 seconds, Bai Shi pinched the dot and walked to his back door. When he pushed the door, the door frame hit a man passing by and holding a bunch of small boxes.
The man was not injured, but the box in his hand was scattered all over the floor.
Shiraishi bent down to help him pick up a few, while secretly looking at the person coming.
This is a tall middle-aged man wearing a slightly wrinkled suit and leather shoes under his feet.
As he stayed at the door for a longer time, Shiraishi gradually smelled a strange smell.
After shrugging his nose twice, Shiraishi remembered it. It seemed that the smell of disinfectant water that can often be smelled in the hospital.
...Is this person injured?
Or is he a doctor who sneaked out during work?
The back door of Shiraishi's house happened to be at the entrance of the stairs leading to the second floor of Maori's house. Those who would pass by here, except for the three protagonists upstairs, there should be only the client who was attracted to the big words "Maori Detective Firm".
Judging from the time when the client passed by the door, he should also be related to his task.
So after picking up seven or eight boxes, Shiraishi did not return it to the man directly, but suggested helping him to take it upstairs.
This made the client relieved. There were too many boxes. He had thought just now that his hands were so full, could he ring the doorbell. Unexpectedly, he met an enthusiastic young man on the way, and everything was solved so simply.
The two of them went upstairs one after another, and Shiraishi followed behind and looked at the person in front of them, but they didn't see anything special.
So he looked away again and his eyes fell on the box in his arms.
These cartons have very worn packaging and look very old.
After staring at the colorful patterns on it for a while, Shiraishi discovered that it was all outdated toys.
...Toys? Outdated?
Two keywords appear at the same time, and a pause is made at the foot of Baishi.
Last night, Tomoya Ogino's words slowly came to his mind: After I died, my father became very unhappy and sent my toys away in batches.
... Could it be that it was sent to the client in front?
Shiraishi remembers the newly triggered mission very clearly - one of the rescued objects is the "resentful father" and the other is the "innocent naughty child".
"Resentful Father" is probably the father Ogino who sharpened his knife in the middle of the night.
As for the "innocent naughty child", the first thing to do is to rule out Okino Tomoya. This man has long been dead and cannot be saved even if he wants to save him.
Therefore, the child mentioned in the task is probably related to the person in front of him. Judging from his age, if he has children, the child will not be too old.
As he thought about it, the man in the suit had already walked to the door of the second floor and rang the doorbell.
The doorbell rings. A few seconds later, the door clicks open, and Kogoro Mori pokes his head out with sleepy eyes: "Hello, Maori Detective Office, what's there..."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes stopped on Shiraishi who had just walked up.
Kogoro Mori looked at the pile of boxes in their hands, reasoned for a moment, and decisively came to the wrong conclusion:
"It's Shiraishi, this is your relative? You can visit each other, why do you bring so many gifts? How embarrassed is Hahaha, come on, come in!"
"..." Shiraishi looked at the man in suit who was standing at the door and was confused. "Mr. Maori, this person is here to ask you to entrust the case, and he also brought the boxes."
"Oh." Kogoro Mouri suddenly realized, "It's just entrusting. Why do you still bring so many gifts? How embarrassed! You only need to pay the entrusting fee!"
"...These are actually what I want to entrust." The man in the suit looked at Kogoro Mori who was off-line and suddenly wanted to change to a detective agency.
However, after a glance back, I found that Bai Shi was blocking the stairs.
The man in the suit sighed and could only comfort himself: he has come...
...
Ran Maori brought a registration form. When the man in the suit was filling out the form, Conan sneaked to the side of the coffee table and lowered his head to study the pile of boxes.
Occasionally, he would glance at Shiraishi who was standing next to him, as if he had no intention of leaving, and his mood was subtle.
After leaving Yoko Okino's house, Conan asked the doctor to investigate Shiraishi's situation, but failed to find any doubts.
——This seems to be a lucky person who has neither good nor bad grades and can get stuck in the passing line every time. His life trajectory from childhood to master's degree is clear and there is no break.
As for his relatives, in addition to their scattered residence and seemingly loving to leave their hometowns, they also have serious and stable jobs, and a few of them are still quite famous in society.
If the black-clad organization would accept such people who have no criminal experience and have been following the rules for half of their lives, it would only mean that their members were too scarce and they began to eat...
After getting this result, Conan felt a little relieved.
After reviewing and summarizing it up, Conan thought that this is probably a person with strong reasoning skills but a relatively confused person.
That night, Shiraishi entered Yoko Okino's house and walked around for a few times to see through the truth. Then, for some reason, he fell asleep in the living room in a daze. When he woke up, he heard someone praise him, and he thought he was talking to the scene and solved the case...
After thinking about it, Conan felt it was quite reasonable. Under some scientific force, he successfully convinced himself.
At the same time, he also diverged his mind.
——Uncle Maori is also very confused. When he encounters a case in the future, he may be able to take advantage of this when he wants to solve the case... Thinking of this, Conan unconsciously touched his anesthesia watch.
He is no longer a child with no power.
The night before yesterday, the reasoning was inspired by borrowing Shiraishi's voice.
After returning home, in addition to asking Dr. Agasa to check people, he also asked him if there were any props for people to fall asleep quickly.
Upon hearing this, the doctor took a break from his many inventions and found this anesthesia watch.
This is a very ordinary-looking children's watch. When using it, press the knob to adjust the time and the transparent watch cover with a sight will stand up.
Use the sight to aim at the person who wants to anesthetize, press the button again, and an anesthetic needle will be fired from the table.
