Chapter 728 Deepening Misunderstanding
After James finished telling Timothy's information, Officer White Bird stood up and said that the police found an empty 51mm shell and a dice in the hanging track room of the exterior wall cleaning trolley on the side of the BELL TREE tower.
This shell matches the model of sniper rifle that Hunter had used before, and Hunter is very fond of dice games and even has a dice tattoo on his left arm. Combining all the above evidence and current intelligence, the police have almost put all their attention on Hunter.
They carefully investigated Hunter's experiences on the battlefield and after he retired from the battlefield, and determined that Hunter's road to revenge was probably not over yet, and he would kill at least three more people.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and it was already evening when Chu Ming and his friends walked out of the Metropolitan Police Department. In fact, the second half of the meeting had little to do with them, and it was more about the deployment of the Metropolitan Police Department. Since neither the Metropolitan Police Department nor the FBI drove them away, Chu Ming and his friends did not leave.
Chu Ming carefully memorized the distribution of police officers and the locations of checkpoints and ambush, and planned to pass them on to Kevin in the evening so that he could fully understand the strength of the organization.
When they reached the gate, Xiaolan hesitated for a while before finally speaking to Sera: "Sera-san, I'm so glad you're not hurt, but, but, can you please, please don't let Conan... don't let him get into danger again..."
Conan looked up at Xiaolan's somewhat sad eyes, and subconsciously raised his hand to grab Xiaolan's fingertips: "Sister Xiaolan..."
"Although, isn't it Conan who walks into danger on his own?" Chu Ming couldn't help but interrupt the inexplicable atmosphere between the two of them. This time, Shiliang was really wronged. "Conan will disappear like a mouse if you don't pay attention. You might as well find a rope to tie Conan up and tie him wherever you go."
Chu Ming's tone was so naughty that Conan couldn't help but jump up and down: "Brother Chu Ming! Are you walking the dog?!"
Shira was amused, revealing two small canine teeth, looking particularly sweet. She patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry, Xiaolan, I will definitely protect Conan."
They stood at the door and talked for a while, then Shira left on his motorcycle. Xiaolan wanted to take Conan back, but Conan immediately grabbed Chu Ming's hand and acted like a spoiled child to Xiaolan: "Sister Xiaolan, you and uncle should go back. The doctor asked us to set off fireworks together. I'm going with Brother Chu Ming."
Xiaolan didn't say anything, and it wasn't the first time that Conan went to Chu Ming's house to sleep. She just told Conan not to act naughty and left with Maori Kogoro.
After everyone left, Conan and Chu Ming walked and chatted. Conan told Chu Ming everything about his encounter with Granburrch today, and also told Chu Ming his own guesses.
Although he was surprised that his casual words would cause the two people on the red team to suspect each other, Chu Ming was happy to see it happen and even planned to deepen the misunderstanding between them.
"According to what you said, Sera's identity is really suspicious. Granburch gave up that excuse, he must be hoping that you would just tell the police. He knows that you will help him to cover up the lie because of Xiaolan, but why does he believe that Sera will help you lie to the police? Unless he is sure that Sera will definitely help to conceal it..."
Chu Ming only said half of what he wanted to say, leaving the rest to Conan to imagine. For things like this, the more Chu Ming talked, the more likely it was that there would be mistakes, and Conan would truly believe what he thought of himself.
In fact, the reason why Granburch was sure that Sera would help to lie was simply because he had read the original work and knew that Sera was originally investigating the reason why her mother became smaller. Meeting Granburch today was like seeing hope. She was also planning to use this opportunity to get more information from Conan. How could she just tell everything so openly?
On the way back, Conan kept thinking about what Chu Ming said. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense to him. He couldn't help but reflect on himself. Because of their time together in the past period of time, he had unknowingly relaxed his vigilance towards Sera. He was really too lax.
But as he thought about it, he said with some distress: "Brother Chu Ming, do you think I should continue investigating?"
Chu Ming raised his eyebrows: "From what you said, you don't want to give up?"
"Several lives are at stake!" Conan frowned and muttered, "If I don't continue investigating, then..."
"The police and the FBI are already tracking this matter. They will definitely be able to stop Timothy from committing more crimes." Chu Ming comforted him halfheartedly, "And Xiaolan still has the nano bomb that Granburch mentioned. Do you really want to continue?"
Conan shut up when his vitals were pinched. He couldn't just ignore Xiaolan's life, so he could only lower his head.
"Don't worry, Granburch only warned you not to continue, but he didn't say that he would not allow others to investigate." Chu Ming looked calm and said, "Don't interfere in this matter, leave the rest to me."
He will definitely send everyone to hell safely.
Conan had no idea what Chu Ming was thinking and was deeply moved: "Brother Chu Ming, thank goodness you are here——"
Chu Ming accepted Conan's thanks without hesitation and sent him to the door of the doctor's house. The other children from the doctor's detective team had already arrived and were gathered on the roof playing with fairy wands. It was said that they had to complete their summer homework together tomorrow to make a model of the BELL TREE tower and surrounding buildings.
Although Conan invited him warmly, Chu Ming successfully got away by using the excuse that he had to investigate the relevant information of this case, and by the way, he also improved Conan's favorability.
