Chapter 11411141【Itos】

"It should be Hattori. He found that Mr. Kusukawa had written on a note, but the note on which the writing was written was torn away, so he wanted to see what Mr. Kusukawa wrote through the marks on the next piece of paper... It's really An old but commonly used method."

 As he said that, Jiang Xia also picked up the pencil and scribbled it again.

Taro Kusukawa used to write with great force as a habit, and the traces of his words were printed on two pieces of paper.

Hand out the pencil flatly like this, the words written by the owner of the note gradually appear on the paper——

 Kenbashi Town, Ito.

There are some scattered numbers below, which look like phone numbers. But after all, there is a piece of paper in the middle, so the painting is very unclear and cannot be recognized.

"They should have gone here." Jiang Xia shook the painted paper, "Let's go and have a look. Although we can't see the number clearly, at least we have a name and area."

 …

Like a treasure hunt based on a map, four people with different thoughts followed the clues and took a car to Xianqiao Town.

 “Ito” is not a very rare surname. When I arrived near Kenbashi Town, I walked around for a while and saw two houses with "Ito" on them. If you look carefully, there must be more.

Knocked on a circle of doors, but couldn't find Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha. Moreover, the Itos had already been harassed once by knocking on the door at noon, and some of them seemed particularly impatient.

Okiya Subaru felt for a while that those who were impatient had a guilty conscience, and for a while he felt that those who were too calm seemed to have something wrong with them.

　　After looking at it for a long time, there was no conclusion. In the end, he simply gave up thinking and turned his attention to Jiang Xia. No wonder when boss Amuro was solving the case just now, he kept looking at Jiang Xia, trying to urge him to take action... It would save trouble to wait to hear the answer.

 …

 At the end, the four of them came to the door of an exquisite single-family house.

 “Two high school students who speak Osaka dialect?”

The owner of the house, holding a well-behaved Siamese cat, listened carefully to what they said. She thought for a moment and shook her head regretfully: "Sorry, I haven't seen anyone like that - but I went out for a while before. Maybe they came at that time and just missed it."

When Jiang Xia was talking to the woman, Mao Lilan's eyes gradually fell on the woman's chest.

There is a beautiful golden badge pinned there, very small, like a blooming sunflower. In the middle of it is engraved a scale pattern - this is a badge symbolizing the identity of a lawyer, with a number engraved on the back, making it unique.

"Excuse me..." Mao Lilan looked up and down for a while, and couldn't help but said with a slight excitement, "Are you lawyer Misari Ito?"

As he spoke, his fingers couldn't help but move to the signature book he carried with him.

Jiang Xia: "..." Your star-chasing areas are too broad.

Misari Ito didn’t expect anyone to recognize him. He was startled for a moment before nodding: “It’s me, are you...?”

Seeing her nodding, Mao Lilan happily took out the signature book:

"I heard my mother talk about you! She said that your commission fee is set very low. It's almost like generating electricity for love. You have helped a lot of people in need. You are a very good celebrity lawyer! ... Well, that's possible. It's a little presumptuous, can you sign your name for me?"

Ito Misari glanced at the book she handed over, glanced at Jiang Xia next to her from the corner of her eye, barely suppressed her impatience, took it with a smile, and signed her name.

 While signing, Conan kept looking up at Misari Ito.

He looked at this middle-aged woman who was a little chubby and had average physical strength. He didn't think too much: This person couldn't beat Hattori, or even Kazuha... In this case, the disappearance of Hattori and the others might have something to do with her. Nothing to do. Coupled with the justice bonus from Mao Lilan's words, Conan remembered that there were countless "Ito"s behind him, and asked: "Auntie, do you know anyone with the same surname as you around here who is suspicious?"

Ito Misari felt a thump in her heart.

How could a child ask such a question? It must be Jiangxia! It was the detective who somehow discovered that the missing person was related to "Ito", so he pretended to come to inquire, but actually came to test.

Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent gradually appeared in her eyes covered by lenses, and she wanted to kill these people together, especially Jiang Xia, who was too threatening.

but…

Ito Misari looked at the four people opposite: although two of them were weak women and children, there were also two adult men. And this was outdoors, and he rashly drew a gun and threatened. Maybe some nosy people would see it and call the police...

 It seems a little difficult to silence someone.

 Ito Misari recalled his actions today, especially those related to Hattori Heiji, and didn't feel anything went wrong.

She then secretly told herself in her heart not to think too much: no matter how amazing she was, Jiang Xia was just a detective who needed evidence after all, just like the two half-dead detectives in her attic, there was nothing to be afraid of - this area " There are so many "Ito"s out there, they may not be able to find them.

 …

Thinking about this, Misari Ito looked like she was thinking, and answered Conan's question in a gentle voice: "Let me think about it... By the way, there is an abandoned building with the 'Ito' nameplate next to the elementary school in the north. I heard Every midnight, there would be people who looked like homeless people coming in and out, and occasionally there would be children shouting."

 —It sounds suspicious no matter how it sounds.

 “Thank you, let’s go over and have a look.”

Jiang Xia seemed not to suspect anything and turned around and left with a few people.

Ito Misari looked at his back until Jiang Xia turned the corner, then breathed a silent sigh of relief and turned back to the house.

 …

Out of two streets, Jiang Xia seemed to have remembered something and turned to look at Mao Lilan and Okiya Subaru:

“You go to that elementary school first—I suddenly remembered that one of the ‘Ito’s just now was a bit suspicious, and I had to go back and ask a few questions.”

Mao Lilan was startled: "How about we come together?"

Jiang Xia shook his head and looked at the looming building in the distance: "We can't waste any more time - it won't take long to turn back, and the suspicious building is not far from here. Maybe by the time you arrive, I will have already arrive."

Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment. Although he thought the building was eerie, he was still worried about the two Osaka friends, so he clenched his fists and nodded: "Okay."

“…” Okiya Subaru pushed up his glasses. He always felt that Jiang Xia seemed to be hiding something, but it was hard to ask for fear of accidentally digging up some news related to Uzuo.

 He quickly suppressed his curiosity and decided to go to the building with Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan has already said she wants to go, but we can’t let a girl go there by herself, how dangerous it is.

 With him following you, if something happens, you might be able to help.
