"Dead?" Sera's surprise was palpable. "Did he also be sniped by the murderer?"

"It's not like that." Conan explained, "In the early hours of the day before yesterday, there was a fire at Scott Green's motorcycle shop in Machida, and his body was found in his room, but... he was already dead before the fire. , and no bullet casings or dice were found at the scene.”

"I see. Different from the previous handling, maybe there is some connection between Scott Green and the murderer. The fire was also set to destroy the evidence." Masumi Sera muttered.

"Yes." Conan nodded, "Although no useful clues have been found from the scene, it is basically certain that the suspect is Kevin Yoshino, whose whereabouts are mysterious."

"This is really a bad development." Sera Masumi felt that the clues were mixed into a mess.

"If that person doesn't care about hurting innocent people before completing the final goal, there will be no way to predict his next actions."

"Ah..." Conan frowned and analyzed thoughtfully, "However, he should continue to use sniping against Jack Waltz."

"By the way, I remembered something. When I was sniped yesterday, I noticed that the other party used a laser sight. It was strange."

Masumi Sera analyzed: "Normally, laser sights are not used during sniping because they are easily detected by the target and reveal their position..."

"It turns out that this is the case," Conan mused, "that's why Hunter did not commit suicide but engaged in a duel."

Shiliang Zhenjun was startled: "What do you mean?"

Conan explained: "At that time, everyone thought that the prisoner was Hunter. If he chose to commit suicide, the police would stop the investigation. That would make it easier for Mr. Murphy and the others to take it lightly, right? But Hunter didn't do that..."

"I understand." A flash of realization flashed in Sera Masumi's eyes, "This is the final test arranged to make the murderer a calm and composed sniper."

"Yeah." Conan nodded and thought to himself:

"The first sniper was a long-range sniper weapon like the MK11, the second sniper was a moving target at night, and the third sniper was an unwavering willpower no matter who the target was. Hunter... probably wanted to kill him before he died. Train the murderer to become the most powerful sniper."

Swish—

At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko walked in carrying shopping bags: "Wait a long time, let's see what I bought you... Huh? Those little devils haven't come yet."

"The doctor said that Sister Sera had just woken up and was worried that too many people would affect her recovery," Conan explained.

"That's it..." Suzuki Sonoko put the shopping bag on the table, "It seems that these things can only be given to them when I go back later."

After being reminded by her, Conan noticed that in addition to nutritional supplements, there were also some model toys in the shopping bag.

"Uh...Sister Yuanzi, this is..."

"Of course I bought it for you little devils." Suzuki Sonoko said: "When we visited the Belltree Tower before, everyone was scared, so I just discussed it with Xiaolan and bought these model toys for you. ,How about it…"

She looked at Conan: "Are you very moved after hearing this?"

Hey, hey... Could it be that it was your idea for Xiaolan to call us and ask us to come over to visit Sera who woke up? But...thinking about it from another perspective, Yuanzi is really quite good to us... After Conan cursed a few times, he said sincerely:

"Thank you Sister Yuanzi."

"Ah, by the way." Suzuki Sonoko suddenly thought of something, "Were you two just talking about the sniper case?"

Starting from the news that Bill Murphy was killed by a sniper, random killings and premeditated killings have become hot topics today.

Sometimes the direction of public opinion is so immediate.

For example, when Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan went shopping just now, they discovered that there were significantly more pedestrians on the street today, and most of them no longer held umbrellas.

"No, just a casual chat..." Conan said in an understatement.

He came here not only to visit Sera Masumi, but also to confirm with the other party whether Sera Masumi noticed anything else when he was focused on the Toto BELLTREE line yesterday.

If this idea was known to Xiaolan, a certain detective boy was worried that he would probably be taken back to the office, and even if he sneaked out again, he would waste the investigation time.

"I was asking Conan what happened while I was in coma." Masumi Sera helped smooth things over.

"Sera-san, don't worry! The murderer will definitely be caught!" Suzuki Sonoko said confidently.

ah?

Hearing this, the other three people in the room all cast questioning glances at the young lady.

Thinking of the background of the opponent's Suzuki Consortium, Masumi Sera couldn't help but ask:

"Yuanzi, do you know any news?"

"No."

Suzuki Sonoko's face, unable to hide anything, had a calm look on her face:

"Isn't it always like this before? It's either Brother Gengyi or Uncle Maori. As long as they are given time, they will definitely be able to find out the sniper who is causing trouble everywhere!"

Mao Lilan added from the side: "Dad has been studying the map since morning. He said he will definitely solve the mystery of the dice."

So, is this the reason for this groundless confidence...

I'm afraid you don't know that the uncle came to the conclusion that the shaking of the bridge caused the number of the dice to jump from 1 to 5...

Conan really didn't want to throw cold water on a few people. He was still complaining in his heart, while Suzuki Sonoko changed the topic in a casual chat:

"Glasses, when you go back later, you can join us and send these toy models to their homes."

"No need to bother, because they have been staying at the doctor's house these days." Conan said.

Suzuki Sonoko said softly: "Live at the doctor's house?"

"Well, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com he...ah, it's us..."

Conan almost spilled the beans, but quickly changed his words: "We have been doing summer homework at the doctor's house these days."

"No wonder they were together when we called just now. Hmm..." Sera Masumi covered her injured shoulder and adjusted her posture.

She was lucky, otherwise if the bullet had hit her heart any further, she would have been dead.

"Sera-san, are you okay?" Conan, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko stopped chatting and hurriedly gathered around the bed.

"It's okay, it's okay, you don't have to worry."

Sera Masumi waved her hand: "It's just that I can't move my shoulders. I'm not used to it for a while. I believe it won't take long to recover."
