In the end, Nakamori did not resign.
This was not because he caught Gid the Monster Thief, but because … That night, Gid the Monster Thief did not show up at all.
That's right, they wasted the whole night in vain. In the end, Gid the Monster Thief disappeared without a trace.
This puzzled Nakamori and the others. They could not understand why the Monster Thief, who had always appeared on time, suddenly disappeared this time. Did he also learn the bad habit of standing people up?
Only Fangzheng knew that it wasn't that Thief Gid didn't come, but that he couldn't make an appearance even if he came. After all, he had beaten Thief Gid so badly that he couldn't take care of himself. He wouldn't be able to get out of bed for at least five days. Unless Gid the Monster Thief planned to appear in front of everyone in a limping manner, it was better for him not to appear at all. He just had to say that Nakamori and Mouri Kogoro had misinterpreted the code.
Come to think of it, perhaps this was why Gid the Monster Thief always sent such neurotic notice letters? After all, if you wrote down the time and place and did not show up, you would be standing up. But if you wrote the code and did not show up, you could blame others for being stupid and misinterpreting it …
Anyway, you were the one who wrote the code, so you could say whatever you wanted.
When Fangzheng boarded the plane and went to his seat, he happened to hear Conan excitedly deducing the true meaning of Gid's notice letter to Little Grief. He said that he had seen through Gid the Monster Thief's tricks and that Gid was actually going to commit a crime on this plane!
But … …
"It's a pity that he can't come this time."
Fangzheng silently sat down in his seat, buckled his seat belt, and said casually. Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Conan and Little Grief both looked at him.
"Why?"
"It's simple."
With that said, Fangzheng sneered.
"I treated him to a meal of fried meat with leather. He won't be able to walk properly for at least three to five days. Unless he wants to cover his butt and limp out to embarrass himself, he can only go home and sleep. "
As he spoke, Fangzheng snorted coldly.
"I told him that if this little bastard dares to appear as Kudo Shinichi again, I will beat him until he can't take care of himself. Even his mother won't be able to recognize him!"
"Uh …"
Hearing this, Conan also quietly shrunk his head. He was now sure that after being taught a lesson by Fangzheng, Monster Thief Gid would never dare to use his main account to appear again. It's just that …. He felt that half of Fangzheng's words were directed at him. After all, there were plenty of times when he didn't listen to Fangzheng.
Perhaps one day, Fangzheng would reward him with a meal of fried meat with a piece of skin. That would be really scary …
"Since Monster Thief Kid won't appear this time, then we have nothing to do."
Xiao Ai, on the other hand, appeared very calm.
"That better be the case. Actually, if you ask me, you guys shouldn't have boarded the plane."
"What can we do?"
Xiao Ai, of course, knew that Fangzheng was referring to his "Ke Xue Theory". To be honest, Xiao Ai herself was now a little convinced of Fangzheng's words. Last time, they even encountered kidnappers on the bus. This time, it was not impossible for the plane to fall from the sky. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a collapsing wall. Although Xiao Ai was not a gentleman, she did not want to court death.
"Dr. Ali and the children were all invited. I had to come with them."
"Sigh …."
Upon hearing Little Grief's answer, Fangzheng sighed in exasperation. Only Conan was still looking blankly at the conversation between the two of them that seemed to be a secret signal. He looked here and there.
"What are you talking about?"
"Hehe, guess."
Looking at the culprit in front of him, Fangzheng did not want to say a word.
At this moment, the conversation between the two women sitting in front of him attracted Fangzheng's attention.
"What's wrong? In the tree? "
"Ugh … I feel a little uncomfortable …."
Hearing this, Fangzheng raised his head and looked forward. He saw a middle-aged woman with short red hair sitting on a chair. She had an ugly expression on her face. This person was none other than Mu Shuli, the person whom Kidd sent the notice letter to. She was also a quite famous drama actress.
Of course, she also thought highly of herself and was quite arrogant to others. She was the kind of person who could not survive even one episode of Detective Conan …. Huh?
It can't be.
"I'm sorry."
With this in mind, Fangzheng had an idea. He stood up and walked to Mu Shuli's side.
"Miss Mu Shuli, please let me take a look. I know a little about medicine."
"Ah, Mr. Fangzheng, sorry to trouble you."
Mu Shuli forced a smile when she saw Fangzheng. After all, Fangzheng was sent by the Metropolitan Police Department, and he was also the president of a large company. Although Mu Shuli was a famous drama actress, she was still just an actor. She would not dare to show disrespect to someone like Fangzheng.
"How do you feel now?"
"I feel a little dizzy and nauseous …."
"Shortness of breath and rapid heartbeat?"
"Yeah …."
"Are you too tired?"
At that moment, the other actor beside Mu Shuli looked at her and took out a bottle of vitamins from her bag.
"Do you want some vitamins?"
"Please wait a moment."
Fangzheng waved his hand and squinted his eyes to carefully observe Mu Shuli in front of him. When he was the Emperor, he had learned how to look, smell, question, and feel the pulse from the imperial physicians at that time. Now, Fangzheng quickly discovered the problem. He moved closer to Mu Shuli and sniffed her arm, then her neck.
"F- Mr. Fangzheng?"
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little surprised. Fangzheng's action was a little too intimate for a man and a woman …. However, Fangzheng completely ignored it. He only sniffed Mu Shuli's face and stopped in front of her cheek. His expression darkened.
"Miss Mu Shuli has been poisoned."
"Huh? Poisoned?! "
Everyone present was shocked when they heard this.
"Fortunately, the degree of poisoning isn't too serious …. Can anyone help her remove her makeup?"
"Ah, I'll do it …."
The actress who was sitting beside Mu Shuli hurriedly stood up. Fangzheng glanced at her and nodded.
"Then I'll have to trouble you. Be careful. Her makeup might be mixed with poison."
"Huh?!"
The actress jumped in fright when she heard Fangzheng's warning.
"She'll be fine, right?"
"She'll be fine as long as it's cleaned thoroughly."
"Okay."
Although she was a little scared, the actress still nodded and looked at the stewardess next to her.
"Then please take us to the bathroom."
"Ah, yes …."
At that moment, the stewardess was given quite a fright by the series of twists and turns. Upon seeing the situation, she hurriedly led the groggy Mu Shuli and the actress to the bathroom. As for Fangzheng, he turned his head and looked at everyone.
"Although this is the time for a famous detective to reason, I'm not good at it. Besides, I think at this point ….. we should be able to guess who the culprit is even without reasoning."
Just as Fangzheng said, when he said that Miss Mu Shuli's makeup was poisoned, everyone immediately turned to look at Mu Shuli's personal makeup artist. Everyone knew that she had just touched up Mu Shuli's makeup before boarding the plane ….
"You … you mean I'm the culprit?"
The makeup artist's face was pale.
"Do you have any evidence?"
"Hah …. Miss, I think you're mistaken."
Faced with the makeup artist's question, Fangzheng sighed helplessly.
"We're the police, not detectives …. Okay, give me your hand. I suspect that you're the one who poisoned Miss Mu Shuli. Please cooperate with our investigation. If you don't …. I think you know the consequences."
"…."
After that, the plane quickly flew back to Tokyo. On one hand, it was to arrest the suspect, and on the other hand, Miss Mu Shuli needed to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible. As for the makeup artist, she only lasted a few minutes before she exposed herself. The reason she killed Mu Shuli was that she had a chance to develop in Hollywood, but Mu Shuli ruined the opportunity because he wanted her to stay by his side, so she wanted to kill him …. Any reason would do. Fangzheng felt that it was meaningless.
If you're unhappy, why don't you just resign? If you don't want to stay here, there will be other places for you to stay. Why are you acting like a maid? Did you sign a contract to sell yourself to Mu Shuli?
After asking Dr. Agashi to send Conan and the girls home, Fangzheng escorted the criminal to the Metropolitan Police Department. After a series of handover procedures, he handed over the disheartened makeup artist to Officer Muki. He then planned to go home and sleep. However, at this moment, Officer Sato stopped him.
"Ah, Mr. Fangzheng, you're here at the right time."
"Huh? What's the matter? Officer Sato? "
"It's like this …."
Speaking of this, Officer Sato showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"Actually, just now, a girl came to the Metropolitan Police Department to look for you …."
"Who?"
Fangzheng was stunned by Officer Sato's words. Lan and Sonoko were on the same plane as him. If it was Kun Shimabuki, Natsumi Kasaka, or Yoko Okuno, they could have called him directly. As for the rest … Who else did he know?
"Well, it's actually …"
Just as Officer Sato was at a loss for words,
Just like that, a girl rushed in.
"Let me go. Isn't that Fangzheng guy in the Metropolitan Police Department? I want to talk to him! "
"Who is this?"
Fangzheng glanced at the girl in a sailor suit, and decisively expressed that ….. he didn't know her.
And looking at her murderous look, she probably wasn't here to confess.
"Ah, Mr. Fangzheng, she's actually …"
"You're Fangzheng, right?"
At this moment, seeing Fangzheng, the girl hurriedly broke free from the policeman who held her, rushed to Fangzheng, and pointed at him.
"My name is Nakamori Aoko, the daughter of the Nakamori Police!"
