Chapter 540: The Robber in the Room
January 19, Monday, afternoon, on the first floor of Mihua Hospital.
After the four members of the detective team came out of Maori's room, Conan felt uncomfortable in his stomach, so he asked the three of them to go to the nurse at the front desk to ask where they could borrow a wheelchair, and then went to the bathroom on the first floor by themselves.
On the way to solve the problem, Conan heard the voices of Police Department Megure and Officer Takagi, as well as the sound of using a faucet, which sounded like he was washing his face.
Police officer Takagi said: "The tire pattern left by the car used by the gangsters is exactly the same as the tire pattern that Mr. Akabane was driving at the time of the accident. It can be said that it is a car."
Mu Mu Police Department asked: "How many people can sit?"
"According to the size of the car, there were four people in it, that is to say, there were four bank robbers." Police Officer Takagi said, "I think this robber organization may think that Mr. Akabane was killed in that car accident. That's why he was dumped by the side of the road." Then he laughed, "Coincidentally, Mr. Akabane is now living in the same ward as Mr. Mori."
The Mumu Police Department asked: "Why, Mao Li was hospitalized again?"
"Yes, I came in yesterday afternoon, but don't worry, Mr. Mori is fine, it's just a relapse of the old injury." Police officer Takagi said with a smile, "I heard that yesterday I was in a hurry to hear Ms. Okino Yoko's singing Yes, I accidentally fell directly from the third floor to the downstairs."
"That's it," Mumu Police Department said with a smile, "Then remember to send him flowers when you leave."
"Yes, I see." Officer Takagi smiled.
At this time, Conan heard the sound of the faucet being turned off.
The Megure Police Department said: "Okay, I'll go back first, and when the hospital's identification of Mr. Akabane's questioning comes out, I will be notified immediately. Also, when you are staring here, be careful."
Officer Takagi said: "Yes, I will definitely watch Mr. Akabane and not let him run away."
"More than that, you have to pay attention to everyone who comes into contact with Mr. Akabane." Megure Police Department said, "We still don't know how many people there are in this gang of robbers. It cannot be ruled out that there were accomplices who responded to the car accident that day. It is possible to know that Mr. Akabane is not dead and sent to this hospital."
"I understand." Officer Takagi said, "Up to now, even the hospital only knows that Mr. Akabane is an unknown car accident victim, no one will visit him at all, except his accomplices, no, they are not To visit Mr. Akabane, but to kill him to silence him."
"So Takagi, you must keep an eye on it, protect Mr. Akabane, and don't let this person succeed." Megure Police Department said, "And this accomplice who came to kill Mr. Akabane must be the backbone of this gang of robbers, so we must arrest him." Stop him, and then we can quickly wipe out this gang of robbers."
"Yes, I see." Officer Takagi said, "Only Mr. Yoshio Sekiguchi, Ms. Lan and Conan have entered the ward today."
At this time, Conan heard the sound of the door being opened and the footsteps of several people going out. He thought that Police Department Megure and Officer Takagi had left, so he continued to concentrate on solving the problem. ...
Afterwards, Conan went to the front desk to meet up with the three of Genta, borrowed a wheelchair, and found Yoshio Sekiguchi walking in the hospital with a gift box of cream puffs, so he left the three of Genta and hugged the football Followed up and found him sitting down in the waiting area of the hall. ...
Mihua Hospital, Ward 503, Maori's ward.
At around 3:40 in the afternoon, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi brought a wheelchair to Maori.
"You guys are so slow." Maori complained.
"We're looking for Conan." Yuan Tai said.
"What's going on? What about the kid?" Maori asked.
"I don't know, it disappeared in a blink of an eye." Guangyan said.
"Forget it, kid," Mao Li said, "Hurry up, take me to the lobby."
Soon after, Maori was pushed by the detective team and ran into Conan in the lobby, with the sole of his right leg and Conan's face in a cast.
"It hurts!" Mori yelled, "Conan, what are you doing? Miss Yoko's show has already started."
Conan rubbed his face and said, "It hasn't even started yet."
Ayumi said: "Really, Conan, if you don't pay attention, you will disappear."
Conan smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I suddenly felt sick to my stomach again, so I went to the bathroom again."
Mao Li shouted: "Hurry up and push me to watch TV. If I'm late, I'll blame you."
Conan said, "Yes, yes, I understand."
After a while, the four members of the detective team pushed Maori to the TV in the hall.
Regardless of other TV watchers, Maori directly adjusted the channel to a TV station that would rebroadcast part of Okino Yoko's concert, and the result was an advertisement.
Conan said to the three members of the detective team: "You guys go to the roof of the opposite shopping mall and do me a favor." He said and the three of them bit their ears for a while.
After that, the detective team ran out of the hospital, and Conan ran to the waiting area with the football in his arms.
Yoshio Sekiguchi was sitting on a bench with a gift box of cream puffs on his lap, his eyes moving back and forth between the gift box and the roof of the building opposite the window.
Conan sat down two seats beside Yoshio Sekiguchi, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, did someone ask you to kill the patient at the back of the ward? That cream puff dessert gift box contained a murder weapon, right? "
"You, how do you know?" Yoshio Sekiguchi was taken aback.
"Don't look this way, they will be suspicious." Conan said, "It is forbidden to use wireless devices in the hospital, but the big bald man who has been staring at you has been using a walkie-talkie all the time, in order to be strict. Monitor your actions? I saw you and your daughter entered this hospital, but she did not go to the ward. You have been sitting here for more than ten minutes, and every moment you will look out of the window and miss your daughter. The name of Xiao Gong, I can still see from here that there is an aunt on the opposite roof who has been looking here with a telescope. Your daughter must be taken hostage by them on the roof of the opposite shopping mall? And this cream puff gift box , your father has diabetes, and the most taboo thing is to eat sweets. Is this what they gave you? You left the ward and said you would go back, but you stayed in the hospital with a gift box of snacks not for your father, so They must have put the murder weapon in the gift box, took your daughter as a hostage, and asked you to go back to your father's ward to kill the patient."
"I, I was forced." Yoshio Sekiguchi said, "Yesterday, a nurse who pretended to be here called me and said that my father missed my daughter very much and asked me to bring Xiao Gong here. But after coming in, they took me away. Daughter Xiaogong, let me go into the ward to see the situation, and gave me sleeping pills for my father to take, and just now gave me this gift box in the stairwell, and asked me to kill that Akabane who happened to live in the same ward as my father. "
"I think they will kill you immediately after you kill Akabane." Conan said, "These gangsters should be the bank robber group. They want to kill the accomplices in the hospital but dare not show up in person." , I just ran into you, and you are still an employee of that bank. If you are not silenced in time after the incident, and you are arrested by the police, the police will most likely consider you to be their internal agent. According to the information you gave you If your father takes sleeping pills, you only need to check the water cup in the ward. The police will think that your daughter was abducted by you and showed it to the police. And it is impossible for the police to know anything useful from you. news, so the police will think you are an incorrigible crooked bigot, and you will be charged with all the crimes, and then the police will temporarily close the case and they will be safe."
"W-how could it be..." Yoshio Sekiguchi's face turned pale with fright.
"This is the conclusion I derived from recombining what I heard from the police officer in the bathroom just now." Conan said, "Maybe they already know that the police have deployed manpower, so they let you step on this trap." Then he asked , "When do they want you to do it?"
"I told them that Mr. Mori will come to the hall to watch TV at four o'clock sharp in the afternoon, and they want me to go up and do it in ten minutes." Yoshio Sekiguchi said, and then looked at the time, "No, it's time now, I want to go up gone."
Conan glanced at the roof of the opposite shopping mall and found that the woman with the binoculars was still there, and then went up to take the gift box from Yoshio Sekiguchi's lap with the football in his arms, "It's cream puffs, uncle, can you give me one?" .”
"What are you doing?" Yoshio Sekiguchi asked in surprise.
Conan opened the box and found a gun inside, so he took it out, "It's strange, there's a pistol inside."
A hospital guard next to him picked up Conan, "Little brother, you are not good if you are so naughty." He wanted to grab the pistol as he said that.
It seems that this guard is also one of those robbers. It is from him that the news of the police leaked. Conan adjusted the knob of the power shoes, then let go of the football in his arms, and kicked the football against the corner of the wall. , kicked a "square ball", the football bounced back and hit the guard in the face.
The guard fell, Conan fell to the ground, kicked the football that fell in front of him, and hit the big bald man rushing in the face with another ball.
The movement of the bald man falling to the ground attracted onlookers. Conan laughed dryly and said, "These two uncles accidentally stepped on my football." Then he found a man with a panicked look and squeezed out of the crowd to run out. A talker came out, and he immediately picked up the football and chased after him.
While running, the man yelled into the intercom: "Hey, take that brat as a hostage..." But before he could finish speaking, he was knocked down by a football kicked by Conan.
Conan quickly adjusted the voice-changing bow tie to the frequency of the man's voice, picked up the intercom and said, "Asshole, look at the gate of the hospital." At the same time, he turned the knob of the power shoes to the maximum and kicked at the football in front of him , The football flew into the sky and hit the face of the woman who was standing next to the shopping mall opposite and looking here with a binoculars.
"Huh." Conan breathed a sigh of relief.
Yoshio Sekiguchi who chased him out asked in surprise, "You, who are you?"
"Conan Edogawa is a detective." Conan smiled, and continued, "I did everything according to Uncle Mori's instructions."
"It turned out to be the Maori detective." Yoshio Sekiguchi said, and then asked, "Then now?"
"Let's go find your daughter." Conan said with a smile.
Not long after, Conan and Yoshio Sekiguchi met the three Gentas and a little girl who came out of the elevator in front of the elevator on the first floor of the mall.
"Xiao Gong." Yoshio Sekiguchi rushed forward and hugged the little girl.
"Now feel at ease, hurry up and notify the police." Conan said with a smile, "You should have met Officer Takagi."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Yoshio Sekiguchi left with Xiaobow in his arms.
Conan said to Yuantai and the others: "I said you, this is too slow."
Ayumi said: "We were waiting for Yuanta, he suddenly felt sick to his stomach and went to the bathroom."
Yuan Tai said: "We have already told that aunt what you told me, 'The plan has failed, please contact me later, put the kid down and leave immediately'."
"But she was knocked down by a football that flew from nowhere." Mitsuhiko asked, "Is it okay?"
"No, no." Conan felt a toothache.
Yuan Tai said: "Okay, let's go play football."
"Uh," Conan thought of the football on the roof, "wait for me." He said and got on the elevator going up. ...
On the other side, the first floor of Mihua Hospital.
Lan came in and immediately heard Moori's voice, "Miss Yoko..." Then she saw Moori standing in front of the TV with his left leg and one leg, dominating the TV, dancing with no image, and his face immediately blushed.
Lan walked up behind Mao Li, stood up for a while, and shouted at the unaware Mao Li: "Daddy!"
"Ah!" Maori was taken aback, his standing left foot slipped and fell to the ground, "It hurts." Then he found that his left ankle was swollen, and he shouted hastily, "Lan, I sprained my left foot, go and call the doctor Ah, Lan."
"I don't care about you." Lan said so, but she helped Mao Li into the wheelchair and pushed him to the emergency room. ...
After receiving the report from Yoshio Sekiguchi, Police Officer Takagi immediately notified the Megure Police Department, and then found the four people in the emergency room of the hospital, and met Mori at the same time.
"Detective Mori, thank you so much." Yoshio Sekiguchi said gratefully.
"Huh?" Molly blinked.
Officer Takagi smiled and said, "Yes, Detective Maori, thank you for arranging for Conan to help catch these bank robbers."
"Oh, this, it's nothing, it's nothing." Maori said quickly, thinking to himself, have I made any arrangements? Forget it, no matter how much it is, in short, this bonus is in hand. I was so good that I made a lot of money without knowing it. ...
