Chapter 3 Untimely Halloween

"The following is a man-made criminal, Mizumatsuki, former head of the Department of the Police Department's Department of Search 1, the police department killed three police officers in a row, including the Deputy Director of the Police Department of Police, Zhu Xingdeng Shifu, and then escaped."

"There were injuries during the escape, and the location of the injury was unknown. In addition, it is not clear whether the fugitive possessed a gun in his hand."

"The key point is that prisoners have strong fighting ability and are very dangerous. If citizens find their whereabouts, they should call the Hotline of the Metropolitan Police Department to provide clues after avoiding their safety. Remember not to try to contact and conflict."

"The bounty is announced below. If a citizen sees this person and provides clear location information to the Metropolitan Police Department, after verification, there will be a one million yen bonus provided by the Police Department."

Damn, Conan pressed the remote control and turned off the TV.

This is Dr. Agasa's house, Dr. Agasa, Conan and Ai Haibara sat in front of the TV and were speechless for a long time.

"Edogawa, do you mean that that person was framed by the organization and became such a situation?" Haibara Ai asked first and broke the silence.

Conan nodded.

"Shinichi, you said you met with the Mizuma Police Officer before he escaped?" Dr. Agasa looked at Conan nervously.

"Yes, it was the initiator of all this that he told me in person that the organization was the organization, but... he also said, 'In his memory everything was done by him', I don't quite understand." Conan thought with a dark face. For him, every time he accused a prisoner, the prisoner's answer was only "doed" and "not done". What does it mean to "do it in his memory?" Is there anything else outside of memory?

Dr. Agasa also helped Conan think: "Does Officer Mizuma mean that memory may be false, and the organization tampers with his memory through some means?"

"Have you ever considered a possibility that maybe you were not facing the real Mizuma Police Officer?" asked Ai Nao Haibara: "Don't forget that long before this, Mizuma Police Officer was surrounded by a gradually richer organizational atmosphere. Until the last time I saw him, it was no different from the people in the organization."

Conan's face changed, especially when he thought about the fact that the organization's people appeared around Mizumatsu several times, but after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head: "The fact that we are still alive is enough to know that the organization has not known our true identity yet. The Mizuma police officer clearly knew who I was until the last time he met, so it was impossible."

‘Don’t the organization know our identity yet?’ Ai Haibara lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

"That means..." Dr. Agasa asked.

Conan nodded: "The Mizuma police officer who has given up pursuing the organization has finally been retaliated by the organization."

None of the three people spoke. Shui Jianyue was not a kind person to them, but everyone was pursuing the people in the organization. Shui Jianyue's misfortune made them feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

"Give up!" Haibara Ai advised: "Give up and investigate the organization, and live well as Conan Edogawa before the organization discovers you."

"Impossible!" Conan flatly refused: "I will definitely turn back to Shinichi Kudo and defeat the evil criminal organization."

"It's up to you, cough cough." Ai Haibara did not argue with Conan. After saying something lightly, she went back to the room - her cold was not cured yet. After taking the matter at the department store last time to go to the hospital, Ai Haibara has been staying at home for the past few days to "rest"

"The school asked for leave for me." Before returning to the room, Ai Haibara said something. After experiencing the bombing of the toilet, Didan Primary School, which had been taken off for a month to rebuild, finally resumed schooling.

However, Haibara obviously asked for leave on the first day of school resuming classes.

Conan directly packed his schoolbag and went to school. On the way, he met the little devils from the Youth Detective Group.

"Conan Conan Conan Conan Conan!" Azumi shouted from afar: "Did you see the news? The Mizuma Police Officer has become a prisoner!"

"Yes." Conan nodded and walked forward with a gloomy face, neither intending to continue discussing nor saying hello to everyone.

"Haihara's cold has not been cured yet?" Mitsuhiko asked.

Conan didn't say a word, just nodded slightly. Obviously, he didn't want to talk much now.

Influenced by Conan's emotions, no one could tell a child who had wanted to discuss it, and walked forward silently like Conan.

But at noon, they got used to Conan's changes and talked about Mizumatsu as if nothing had happened.

"I want me to say that the fierce man deserves his sin. If he is fierce to children today, he may kill and set fire tomorrow!" Yuan Tai, who was talking while eating the bento, shouted and invented a 'famous quote', spraying rice grains everywhere.

"Wonta! You can't speak like this. The Mizuma Police Officer is clearly a good policeman!" Mitsuhiko Yoshinobu said in a proper manner.

Conan did not talk to them, and after eating the bento in three bites, he walked out of the classroom.

Until after school, Conan's depression finally cleared a little, and he didn't go back to the office, but went to Dr. Agasa's house again.

When I walked into Dr. Agasa's home, I found that the doctor was not doing strange experiments as expected, but was sorting out a lot of letters.

"That's...!" Conan remembered that because his father Yuzusaku Kudo announced the receiving address to the public because he was Kudo Shinichi's home, there were always fans and editors and strange people sending blades. He, a son, had to sort out these letters in different categories. Fans' letters were prepared to reply according to the draft left by Yuzusaku Kudo, and the editor's letters were selected for him to process, and by the way, he counted the blade rate at different times.

"It's time to process the letter again, but I don't feel like you are in the mood to deal with it, so I'll help you," explained Dr. Agasa.

"Thank you, Doctor, but let me come too." Conan sat listlessly at the table and read the letters one by one.

"Mr. Yusaku Kudo, Yusaku Kudo, Yusaku Kudo, Yusaku Kudo, Yusaku Kudo... Ahhhh, my email was filled with my dad's letters." Conan said irritably after just looking at it for a while.

"There's nothing to do. Compared to you, who has not been heard from for more than a year, Yusuo is a well-known mystery novel writer who has been around for a long time." Dr. Agasa twisted his beard and felt that Conan's complaint seemed very familiar.

"Hey, there is a letter to Shinichi here!" At this time, Dr. Agasa found that there was a letter in his hand that said Shinichi Kudo.

"Eh?" Conan was also startled and suddenly realized that history was always surprisingly similar. It seemed that the appeal incident had also happened once before the incident of Moriya Diji.

Conan took the letter and cut it open, and found that it was actually an invitation letter.

To Shinichi Kudo.

Could it be a person like Moriya Diji again? Conan swallowed and continued to read. Note that there was a separate piece of letter paper with the invitation letter. Conan chose to open the letter first to read it.

However, he almost choked to death at first sight.

Dear Mr. Conan Edogawa.

The full moon night is approaching, and you are invited to participate in a thrilling party and a bloody boat party.

Whether you attend or not, the poor lamb who dies will curse his own destiny, and the sinner will be at large.

Vermouth

The letter paper slid from Conan's fingertips. Conan didn't bother to pick it up, jumped off the chair and ran up the stairs.

...

After a while, Ai Haibara sat at the table holding a cup of hot water. Conan next to him had a red palm print hanging on his face, which was said to be the result of him breaking into the lady's bedroom.

"This looks like an invitation to a party, right?" Dr. Agasa read the letter and invitation without authorization when Conan was away. If he ran away without talking about it, the invitation letter read a party of "Inappropriate Halloween".

All guests are asked to dress up as ghosts to attend the party and conduct decryption activities.

In this way, the content of the letter seems to be provoking some famous detectives to engage in a reasoning contest, if you ignore the words of "Dear Mr. Conan Edogawa".

"Is Vermouth the code name in the organization?" Conan turned his head and asked Ai Haibara, which was the reason why he was slapped her downstairs.

"I haven't heard of it, I don't know much about wine." Ai Haibara shook his head.

Conan is already looking up the dictionary: "This is a wine native to Italy, and we usually call it...Belmode."

Hearing this name, Ai Haibara's face turned worse because of a cold.

"You can tell that you have heard of this name by looking at your expression, right?" Conan asked without surprise: "You have heard of this name? This is the code name of the member of the organization, right?"

"Then isn't this invitation?" Dr. Agasa said in surprise.

"Yes, the organization's trap." Conan nodded: "It's finally my turn after the Mizuma Police Officer. Let me take the trick..."

"No!" Haibara screamed: "You can't go! Don't go! This is a trap! You will definitely lose your life if you go!"

"I know this is a trap." Conan nodded: "But we have been exposed anyway. After they knew that I am Shinichi Kudo, it is not difficult to guess that you are Shirley. Even if they hide this time, they can come to the door directly, so this time it is a trap and it is also an opportunity to take the initiative to confront you."

"I still don't understand why they didn't come and kill us all?" asked Dr. Agasa.

"As for this... I actually don't understand, but I don't understand anything..." Conan said something inexplicable. After saying that, he didn't give the two people a chance to ask, so he put his schoolbag on his back and went to the office, leaving behind a confused Dr. Agasa and Ai Haibara who had panic and shock on his face.

...

"Xiao Ai? Who is that Belmode? Do you know him?" After a long time, Dr. Agasa asked. Compared to Conan, he thought it would be better to understand the enemy first.

Haibara Ai picked up the dictionary that Conan had read before, found the entry about Belmode and started reading it.

"Vermouth, flavored wine, originated in Germany. In order to adapt to the taste of Germans who like to drink bitter beer, the Germans used vermouth leaves to soak wine, and later developed a new wine variety that was developed by soaking various fruits or spices, herbs and plants in wine."

"In other words, are the wines with different aromas obtained by soaking different spices Vermouth? It is worthy of being the witch Belmode of the Thousand Faces." After closing the dictionary, Ai Haibara sighed.

"Thousand-faced witch? Is it a woman?" Dr. Agasa asked in confusion. This should be the one who describes the Belmode in the organization?

"Yes, this is the nickname given to her by the people in the organization. She is proficient in disguise. I don't know what her true face looks like, but since the nickname is this, it should be a woman." Haibara Ai nodded: "I have felt her breath, which is stronger and more suffocating and terrifying than the last police officer Mizuma, and is completely different from the breath of gin."

"She has a status in the organization that is not lower than Gin, and we can tell what a terrifying opponent she is, so no matter what dangerous plan Edogawa is doing, it would be better for the doctor to persuade her in the end."

"Uh...oh." Dr. Agasa hesitated for a moment and agreed.

...

"Hey, what is this?" After Xiaolan came back from school, she checked the newspaper box at home and did not have a letter of entrustment. She really saw an exquisitely plastered envelope.

"An inappropriate Halloween invitation?" Xiaolan frowned, and it sounded like it was related to the terrifying demon and monster.

Xiaolan recently vaguely felt this strange fog shrouded around her. Conan, who was sneaky and came back late, suddenly became the suspect's police officer, his old habit relapsed and started to drink drunk again, and the thing he saw at Teacher Judy's house last time...

...

Judy St. Timilion, a foreign teacher at Didan High School, put down a report in his hand and took off the pair of glasses that were somewhat old.

"Are you finally showing your feet? Rotten apples."

Judy slowly stood up and found that the room was a little dim. She walked to the window and pulled open the thick curtains.

The red sunset shone in and hit a wall. If someone saw it, they would find that most of the photos of a boy were on the wall.

Shinichi Kudo, a famous high school detective a year ago.

There is also a photo posted on it, which shows a little boy who is seven or eight years old and looks very smart at first sight. The English Coolkid is written on it with a marker.

Conan Edogawa.

Judy then found another document from the drawer.

"That arrogant police officer will actually fall to this level. Who did this? Is that person?"

...

"What should I do! What should I do now! Mr. Oto!" Mie Mie Miyato remembered walking around the ground, wishing she could move forward and shake Oto Prefecture Lake's neck.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm trying to contact him. I'm not dead or jailed, so I won't let you see your sister." Oto Prefecture Lake knocked on the computer and comforted her.

Mie Miyomi Miya was even more anxious: "Now is the most dangerous situation! Maybe his changes are the organization's actions. If he has fallen into the hands of the organization now, his sister might be found together."

"Oh, calm down...hehehehehe! Let go of my neck, it's not me who cleansed your sister!"
