Chapter 988 The puzzle pieces begin to come together
The girl looked at Sera Masumi and said slowly, "In the past few encounters, I didn't see that he had the ability to match the rumors. I don't know why you believe in him so much. But there is another young man who interests me."
Sera Masumi was stunned for a moment: "You mean, Kamiya?"
At the same time, he felt a little dissatisfied. If Yuya had not been at the crime scene several times, not only would he have snatched away his part in reasoning, but even Conan would have watched like a good boy the whole time. How could he have had any chance to perform?
She had obviously been looking forward to seeing that man's heroic deduction.
The girl nodded. "Yes, he has extraordinary observation skills, karate skills that are unmatched, and reasoning skills that even I am amazed at. There are only a handful of people like him even in our country."
"No, this evaluation may be too low. No one can compare to him."
"Including your eldest brother."
Sera Masumi was very surprised: "Mom thinks so highly of him?"
Although she was called mother at such an age as a junior high school girl, the girl did not seem uncomfortable at all.
She nodded, coughed several times, and then said, "The ability he demonstrated is worthy of my praise."
Sera Masumi touched his chin and said hesitantly: "Should I continue to contact them? I always feel that Kamiya will see through me."
The girl thought for a moment and nodded: "It's okay, go ahead, before you make sure they are trustworthy..."
"By the way, if they come to you directly to ask about me, just tell them..."
The girl raised her face and said word by word: "Just say that I am a sister from outside the domain."
"A sister outside the realm?" Sera Masumi frowned slightly, not understanding the meaning for a moment. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "Okay, since mom said so."
The girl nodded, paused for a moment and said, "By the way, pack up, we are moving."
"Huh? Now?" Sera Masumi was very surprised, "We have only lived here for a few days, right?"
The girl didn't explain much: "Go ahead, hurry up."
"Oh, I see." Sera Masumi scratched his head and got up to pack his luggage.
The girl looked down at the bug in her hand and couldn't help squeezing it. She turned her head to look at the black sky outside the window and said slowly in her heart: The act of destroying the bug has probably made the boy confirm the fact that I am in this room.
You are so innocent! I'm afraid you have been seen through by others a long time ago.
They saw Conan in the live broadcast of the tennis match in London, and later found out that Kudo Shinichi's name appeared on the flight to London, but this person did not appear from beginning to end.
Conan, on the other hand, appeared in the team even though he was not on the list.
Although Masumi Sera has already confirmed that Edogawa Conan is Kudo Shinichi, it is better not to contact them until they are sure whether they are trustworthy.
After all, her identity is that of a dead person.

Beihu Primary School, staff office.
Natsuko Shibuya is working overtime to mark math papers, which she will need for her math class tomorrow.
At this time, the cell phone rang. She picked it up and took a look. The caller was Judy.
"Hey, Xia Zi, where are you now?"
Shibuya Natsuko sighed, "Still grading papers in the office."
Judy couldn't help but exclaimed, "Are you still working overtime? Are you used to your job as an elementary school teacher?"
Shibuya Natsuko rubbed her aching shoulders and said with a smile, "Yes, beautiful teachers returning from overseas are very popular!"
She sighed faintly: "Although I would like to say that, I am actually busy with various tasks. I also have an appointment to meet with the parents of the students next."
Judy: "So the drinks we planned tonight are ruined?"
Shibuya Natsuko stuck out her tongue, even though the other party couldn't see it: "I'm so sorry, no, why are you still in Neon? Isn't the undercover investigation over?"
"Wait a minute," Judy said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "How dare the person who invited me first. I have a lot of things to do as well."
The two chatted and laughed for a while and then hung up the phone.
Kamal saw Judy ended the call and asked, "Is this your friend?"
Judy nodded. "Yes, she happened to be involved in an incident when she went to study in the United States. I helped her deal with it at the time, and that's how we met."
"She also taught me the Neon language. This investigation was also helped a lot by her. On the surface, she is my classmate and friend in the role of teacher."
"Oh, I see." This was the first time Camel heard Judy talk about this.

Cupido Park.
A white Mazda was parked at the bottom of the park stairs.
Vermouth propped up her chin with one hand and looked out the window boredly: "So, who are we waiting for here?"
Amuro Toru looked at his phone, which showed a photo: "Shibuya Natsuko, 28 years old, an elementary school teacher."
Vermouth exhaled and asked, "Who is she?"
Amuro revealed a somewhat dangerous smile: "She is my client, and she is also the one who has the ability to help me complete the last piece of the puzzle I have been looking for."
Vermouth asked impatiently: "So, what is the last piece of the puzzle?"
Amuro Toru smiled slightly and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a sound of something heavy falling to the ground from behind.
The two were stunned and turned to look at the same time.
Vermouth said uncertainly: "Just now...did something fall from the stairs?"
Toru Amuro's eyes narrowed, he stood up and leaned over the car window on Vermouth's side, looking up the stairs.
In the distance, at the top of the stairs, there was a dark shadow, its body twitching as if it was gasping for breath, and then it turned and left.
Toru Amuro frowned slightly, opened the door, got out of the car and walked to the bottom of the stairs. As the dark clouds that covered the moon dissipated and the moonlight poured down, Toru Amuro could see clearly what was on the ground. It was definitely a person.
Moreover, his target this time, Shibuya Natsuko, was lying on the ground with blood all over her head.
Vermouth also followed, and when she saw the person on the ground, she frowned and said, "Let's leave here quickly. We can't let this happen... Hmm? This woman..."
After seeing the man's face clearly, Vermouth was stunned, and then subconsciously looked at Amuro Toru.
The corners of Amuro Toru's mouth curled up, revealing an extremely dangerous smile: "Yes, it seems that the last piece of the puzzle will be completed without my help."
