Conan scratched his head: "Before leaving, those two people said they saw Mr. Furuhashi kill someone, but I haven't found any evidence yet. The tape was not cut open for playback. Mitsuhiko said he saw the young lady crying in the toilet, which is also a clue. I always feel like I missed something..."
While Conan told Chu Ming the details of what happened here, he deliberately only said the name without pointing out who the person was, and at the same time stared at Chu Ming closely.
Chu Ming remained calm, but he was laughing in his heart: This little trick is really childish.
"Mr. Guqiao? Which one?" Chu Ming raised his head and looked around the theater. There was nothing wrong with his expression, and the doubt in his eyes was also very natural.
Conan completely let go of his last bit of doubt. He pointed at the tall man standing against the wall with an angry look on his face and said, "That's him."
"Let's go to his workplace and see if there are any clues."
Chu Ming and Conan stood in the projection room. Chu Ming looked at the broken mirror inside and knocked twice. He turned to Conan and said, "Is it possible that he used the mirror to reflect the image to another window? Have you learned this in Hawaii? Can the image be reflected over with this wall?"
Conan walked forward and Chu Ming handed him the fragments of the mirror.
The two of them fiddled with the projector for a long time before finally succeeding in projecting the image.
"That's right! He must have used this method to kill Mr. Zhang Tian first and hang him up, then wait until he returned to the projection room to take away the lens and let the image be played out of this window as a proof of his alibi."
"Do you know the evidence?" Chu Ming asked Conan with his head down.
"I think the evidence should be in the photos taken by Mr. Ide!" Conan showed a confident smile, "Let's go, Brother Chu Ming, let's go solve the case!"
Chu Ming pushed Dr. Agasa out from beside him and said, "You can't play a double act with Dr. Agasa. I can't do this."
Dr. Agasa touched his head and said, "Let me do it. I can do it. You can also ask the children to help."
He pointed at the three children who were standing timidly by the side. The three of them stood there obediently, without any of the liveliness that they used to run around everywhere. Instead, they stared at Conan with resentful eyes. They had heard that the great devil Chu Ming was summoned by Conan over the phone!
Conan hurried over and invited them to join in the crime scene performance.
After the passionate performances of Dr. Agasa and the five members of the Junior Detective League, Furuhashi finally pleaded guilty in the face of evidence.
After the case was over, Officer Megure made an appointment with them to take statements on the weekend and left first.
"Since we can't watch the movie, why don't we go to the doctor's house to play cards? We can't waste this half-day vacation." Conan turned around and suggested.
"Okay~" Several children agreed excitedly - and then pulled Haibara Ai into Dr. Agasa's car. In a blink of an eye, only Conan and Chu Ming were left at the scene.
"Looks like you'll have to take my car, you suspicious little detective."
"What do you mean by suspicious? I just have a little doubt. Sherlock Holmes also said that emotions can affect reason, so I can't give up the pursuit of the truth just because we are close!"
Conan couldn't help but mutter a few words. He was also making a bold assumption and carefully verifying it.
----------
Chu Ming sat on the sofa, watching Conan blend in perfectly among the children, using his advantage of being good at observing people's expressions to win first place in the turtle-touching card game.
He looked at Conan, who was smiling particularly happily at this moment, and lowered his eyes. Once it came to the later stage, Conan got all the resources of the Red Team, including the Public Security Bureau, CIA, FBI, MI6... plus Conan, the protagonist with a halo, the Red Team's strength was really unprecedentedly strong.
As for the organization, from beginning to end, except for a few loyal ones like Gin, Vodka and Rum, basically all the others were traitors.
Unfortunately, Chu Ming is a person who is naturally accustomed to challenging difficult tasks. Moreover, for someone as reckless as him, he is still suitable for the black side. After all, he is already in his second life, and he will not die. It would be a waste if he does not do anything.
I really want to see the day when he becomes the boss of the organization, and stands in front of Conan with Gin and others, and tells Conan that he is actually the leader of the organization he has been tracking down, that emotional value...

Chapter 140 Disk
"Brother Chu Ming, what are you laughing at? So - disgusting?" Conan came over.
Chu Ming pushed his head away and laid on the table: "I'm thinking about happy things."
Conan also squeezed his head over: "What's the happy news?"
Chu Ming casually threw the newspaper next to him on Conan's face and said, "If you have nothing to do, just follow Xiao Ai's example and read some books and newspapers to cultivate your sentiments and worry less about adult matters."
Conan tore the newspaper off his face and glanced at it: "The proprietress of the French restaurant in Beihu Town was killed after being robbed?"
Mitsuhiko put the card down and continued, "Yes, it's a restaurant called l'escargot."
"The name of this store is really weird." Yuan Tai couldn't help but complain, "It doesn't make sense at all——"
Conan the science popularizer is online again: "Escargot means snail, which is an edible snail often used in French cuisine."
"Ugh, eating snails, so disgusting. They can't be made into rice bowl, Ayumi, what do you think?" Genta's face was full of disgust, and he turned to Ayumi for support.
Ayumi suddenly coughed twice, her voice a little hoarse: "The air conditioning in the cinema was too cold just now, I fell asleep while watching the movie, and now I seem to have a cold."
Chu Ming touched her forehead and said, "It's a little hot. I think you have a fever. I'll take you home."
He stood up, and Genta and Mitsuhiko beside him were looking at Ayumi with eyes that said 'I wish you peace'.
Ayumi suddenly panicked and subconsciously looked at Dr. Agasa.
Dr. Agasa couldn't help but laugh: "Hahahaha Chu Ming, let me take her back, and you take Conan and the others home."
Chu Ming nodded indifferently: "Okay."
Now it's Yuantai and Mitsuhiko's turn to become quails.
After sending everyone back, Chu Ming turned the car around and went home.
It wasn't too late, so he planned to go to his safe house.
Gin chose three safe houses for him, one of which was near Beika Town.
When he arrived at the door, Chu Ming was surprised to find that this door lock actually had iris recognition technology!
Is this kind of technology available in this era?
Chu Ming walked around. Although this place is called a safe house, it can actually be considered a single-family villa.
However, the materials used for walls, windows and doors are bulletproof and explosion-proof and are indestructible.
In addition, everything that should be there is inside. Medicines, supplies, and weapons are all placed in the warehouse in different categories. The basement is a scaled-down version of the base training ground. In general, it is no different from Gin's safe house last time.
There was actually a small laboratory inside, but it was a pity that he couldn't use it.
Chu Ming strolled around with satisfaction, then lay on the bed and decided that he would stay inside and not go out for the time being.
Three poles in the sun.
Chu Ming was awakened by a disturbing phone call.
"You'd better be okay, or I-"
"Brother Chu Ming, something bad has happened! Something has happened to Ayumi. There's a thief in her house! She might be killed!"
"You're still waiting for this kind of thing? Don't worry, just send me the address and I'll go right away."
"I just pretended to be Dr. Agasa and called Ayumi's house, saying that she had 5 million to pay back. The kidnapper must still be at her house now. I'll send you the address!"
Chu Ming drove and picked up Conan on the way, then drove all the way to Ayumi's house at full speed.
"This building... is quite luxurious. I didn't expect Ayumi's family is so rich. Tsk tsk."
Chu Ming stood downstairs and marveled in admiration.
"After all, Teitan Elementary School is considered an aristocratic school, so it's normal for them to live here."
Conan dragged Chu Ming into the elevator.
"It's right here. I'll knock on the door later. The moment the door opens, Brother Chu Ming, you rush in and beat him up!" Conan waved his fist.
As soon as the door opened, Chu Ming took a running start from the elevator entrance and kicked the door. The door and the gangster hit the ground heavily. The gangster rolled his eyes and fainted immediately.
Conan held out his hand to Erkang: "There's no need to be so violent—"
When Chu Ming saw Conan extending his hand, he turned around and high-fived him.
(*^o^) people (???)
"Oh, fuck, this little thief is not even worthy of my kick, what's there to celebrate?"
Conan's hand felt numb from being slapped, and he hissed and quickly pulled his hand back. Who wants to high-five with you!
He ran in and saw Ayumi with her hands and feet tied in the bedroom and her mouth taped, and he quickly went over to untie her.
"Conan...wow, I thought...I thought..." Ayumi, with tears in her eyes, hugged Conan and cried loudly.
Chu Ming looked at Conan, who was at a loss in the hug, and sighed. He saw it yesterday. When they went in to watch the movie, Ayumi and Haibara Ai both leaned on Conan. He had already taken a picture with the system!
When your identity is revealed, hmph, I'll see Xiaolan beat you to death.
Conan suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around and saw that the kidnapper had woken up and was looking at him unwillingly.
Conan didn't take it seriously. Many criminals had this kind of look when they were caught. As a qualified detective, how could he be afraid of this kind of threatening look?
Soon, Takagi came over and took the robber away. Ayumi's mother also rushed back and thanked Chu Ming and Conan profusely.
After leaving, Gao Mu also turned around and asked them to take a statement on the weekend.
"It looks like this weekend will be very busy." Chu Ming glanced at Conan, "The blue castle, the movie theater, and today's break-in case, so annoying, how about——"
"No!" Conan knew Chu Ming wanted to sneak away, "Brother Chu Ming, please come with us! It happens to be the weekend when we can go out after taking notes. Uncle Maori said he would take us to the amusement park. Brother Chu Ming, why don't you come too~"
Conan put his hands on Chu Ming's legs and said, "Go ahead, Chu Ming, Uncle Maori will treat you!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go. Please let go of my legs. We are on the street. Please be careful of the impact."
It was getting late, so Chu Ming didn't send Conan back to school, but sent him directly back to the detective agency.
Chu Ming politely declined Kogoro Mori's invitation to stay for dinner, sat for a while and then left.

"disk?"
Chu Ming put his legs on the sofa and lay sideways to answer the phone.
"Well, the disk containing the record book of Mihua Construction was stolen. It contained bribes to politicians and their underground transactions. There were several records of transactions with organizations. It would be troublesome if it was sent to the police. Big Brother asked you to find a way to destroy it directly."
"Oh, where is the disk now?" Chu Ming shook his legs.
