Chapter 494 Shinichi Kudo's Idol Image
Qi Ming smiled and patted his chest as he spoke.
"That's right, so I think I can make this wanted notice more realistic. I'll just commit a crime tomorrow, and that'll be it."
"Real crimes, real wanted posters, then I can infiltrate the organization?"
"..."
Inspector Megure was momentarily lost in thought.
"Brother Qi Ming, this isn't quite right. After all, this is ultimately a matter for us police."
"Do not."
Qi Ming shook his head.
"If I don't go to hell, who will? This time, I have to go."
After saying that, Qi Ming gave Inspector Megure a look.
Megure understood, realizing the meaning behind Qi Ming's gaze and the nature of the case.
However, the other officers were unaware of this.
They simply felt that Qi Ming was great, and no further explanation was needed.
Qi Ming stroked his chin, then looked at Vermouth.
Playing alone seems a bit boring, so you have to form a group, the more people, the more fun it is.
"Would you like to get on the bus?"
Vermouth sighed and squinted at Qi Ming.
Do I have the right to refuse?
"So it seems you've agreed."
"..."
Was this done voluntarily?
I was clearly forced into this!
Recalling the horrific scenes of the deceased in the autopsy reports, Vermouth felt a little apprehensive, but she wasn't particularly worried.
Qi Ming will definitely be able to protect her.
After all, it's a bit embarrassing for your boss to lead a team on a mission and end up killing one of his employees, isn't it?
"..."
Shinichi Kudo was conflicted.
He actually wanted to go; he really wanted to see what this special case was like.
But it was still too dangerous.
If Vermouth goes, Qi Ming will definitely protect him.
But if I go there alone, I'll be all alone, without any big brother to protect me.
What does it matter if he just recovered and then kicked the bucket in the prisoner's trap?
Just a few days ago he was chatting and laughing with Xiaolan, but the next day his smile could only appear in black and white photos?
You shouldn't do that!
With his thoughts in disarray, just as Shinichi Kudo decided to give up investigating the case, Qi Ming's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"How about a famous detective? Interested in getting on board?"
"Get in the car?"
Shinichi Kudo shuddered, turned to look at the smile on Qi Ming's face, swallowed hard, and waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, this matter is beyond my capabilities. I'd better leave it to you, Brother Qi Ming."
Shinichi Kudo always felt that Qi Ming was testing whether he would still rush forward recklessly like a brute.
However, Qi Ming raised an eyebrow upon hearing Shinichi Kudo's answer.
"Really not going?"
Shinichi Kudo nodded repeatedly.
"I'm not going, I really'm not going."
"affim?"
"Absolutely 100% certain."
Seeing Shinichi Kudo like this, Qi Ming couldn't help but sigh.
How did those once hotheaded young people end up like this?
Qi Ming patted Shinichi Kudo on the shoulder.
"Just come on, it's just for fun. Don't worry, I'll protect you this time."
"……what?"
Shinichi Kudo blinked blankly.
He seemed to be hallucinating.
What is Qi Ming saying? Protect him?
"Brother Qi Ming, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Qi Ming replied impatiently.
"It means we should go play together, and I'll speedrun it for you, you understand?"
This time, Shinichi Kudo understood what Qi Ming meant.
He treated that place like an amusement park, and because it's not fun playing alone, he wanted to find more people to go and play together, right?
Shinichi Kudo frowned, and after a while, he tentatively spoke.
"Then, shall I go?"
"Hey, that works then."
Inspector Megure's eyelids twitched involuntarily.
Brother Qi Ming, aren't you taking this case a bit too lightly?
Inspector Megure looked at Shinichi Kudo and said.
"Kudo, it's fine for Qi Ming to go, but why are you going to join in the fun? Besides, you're a detective, what if they put your face on the big screen as a wanted criminal? That would be terrible!"
Shinichi Kudo's expression froze for a moment.
Oh right, I almost forgot about that.
If the news were to get out that I've become a wanted criminal, it might damage my reputation...
"Oh, it's no big deal. We can just clarify things afterward."
Before Shinichi Kudo could reply, Qi Ming immediately spoke.
"Besides, what normal person would bother to follow a detective for no reason? What, are you some big celebrity in the entertainment industry?"
"Look, didn't I not recognize you when we first met?"
"..."
Recalling his first meeting with Qi Ming, Shinichi Kudo didn't want to speak.
However, Shinichi Kudo soon realized that something was wrong.
If his wanted poster is put on the list, wouldn't that let the other members of the organization know that Shinichi Kudo is still alive?!
Hmm, that doesn't seem right either.
Gin and his ilk probably think Shinichi Kudo is cosplaying Kaito Kuroba, right?
Besides, Qi Ming and Vermouth are also wanted by him, so it's not a big problem.
Shinichi Kudo, who was misled by the lack of information, had no idea that even if Gin knew he was still alive, he had completely lost interest in him.
"You guys, well, alright."
Seeing this, Inspector Megure stopped interfering.
After waiting for half an hour, everyone had finalized their action plan.
Of course, the chief planner was Qi Ming.
The participants were him, Vermouth, and Shinichi Kudo.
Inspector Megure originally intended to send a few officers to accompany them, but Qi Ming refused.
It's not like we're playing a biological warfare game, so let's skip the police-criminal cooperation stuff.
Kogoro Mouri actually wanted to go too, but Shinichi Kudo persuaded him not to.
With these old bones and limbs, there's no need for such strenuous activity.
Qi Ming's plan was also very simple.
It's so simple it's almost rudimentary.
first step.
Tomorrow morning, the three of them will openly rob a bank, and then the police will arrest them with real guns.
The second step.
After they shake off the police, publish their arrest warrant and the details of the pursuit in the news an hour later.
Finally, they just gathered together and waited for the judge to come and serve them.
perfect.
However, this was Qi Ming's idea of perfection, and Inspector Megure still made a few minor modifications to the plan.
Qi Ming and the others do not need to escape on their own; they will regroup when the time is almost up.
After all, Qi Ming and his gang weren't professional robbers, so how could they possibly escape on their own?
While Qi Ming was making plans, Shinichi Kudo wasn't idle either. He was writing and drawing on the blackboard, doing what he considered his detective work.
He was thinking about what they would encounter in the prisoners' stronghold.
The Hell Path likely involves them passing through a mechanical passage.
There should be some kind of flamethrower or similar device along this passage, which would explain the burns on everyone's bodies.
The realm of hungry ghosts likely contains some clues hidden in the food, or perhaps those people have been poisoned and can only continue forward by eating the food.
As for the animal realm... it can't be that they are locked up with wild beasts and forced to fight, right?
What are the next three lines?
Shinichi Kudo shook his head. In any case, everything would be clear by tomorrow.
After everyone approved of this rather perfunctory plan, they all dispersed.
However, the police will definitely not be leaving anytime soon.
They still need to find Watanabe Toru's body.
"See you tomorrow! Meet at the Mikado Bank, don't forget!"
"..."
Shinichi Kudo watched Qi Ming drive away, his mind still a little dazed.
I never imagined that one day I would end up robbing a bank with members of that organization.
Even though it's fake, it still feels so unreal.
However, this world has become very unreal ever since I shrunk...
