Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Chapter 206: Lively Celebration Banquet (1)

Friday afternoon, in front of the Poirot Café.

"Shirakawa, here!"

A police car stopped in front of the coffee shop. Shirakawa Akira walked over in surprise and leaned over the window to look at Matsuda Jinpei and Takagi Wataru in the car.

"Are you driving the police car directly over there?"

Bus for private use?

it's not good.

Takagi Wataru stammered and explained: "No, it's not like that."

Matsuda Jinpei took over the conversation: "Takagi and I just got back from a mission, and since we happened to be passing by, I'll just give you a ride and go back to the Metropolitan Police Department together."

Bai Chuanqiu rolled his eyes: "Are you afraid that I will run away?"

I even took him to the police station, as if I was afraid he wouldn't go.

Matsuda Jinpei chuckled and pointed towards the rear driver's seat: "Get in the car!"

"Ok."

Baichuan Qiu had no choice but to get in the car.

The group returned to the Metropolitan Police Department in a police car.

As soon as they got off the car, they saw several police officers coming out of the Metropolitan Police Department building with serious expressions and walking to several police cars next to them.

Matsuda Jinpei took a look and saw that it was Officer Yuminaga, the Inspector of the Arson Investigation Division of the First Investigation Section.

At this time, except for the police officers on duty, most of them had already gone to the celebration banquet.

Judging from Inspector Gongchang's expression, he doesn't look like he's going to a banquet.

"Inspector Yuminaga." Takagi Shigeru greeted politely.

"It's Takagi." Yumachi walked over.

"Inspector Gongchang, what are you doing?"

"Alas, another case." Inspector Yuminaga sighed, then called out to the officers behind him and said to Takagi Wataru, "I'm afraid we won't be able to attend the celebration banquet this time. Takagi, enjoy yourselves, we'll be leaving first."

Takagi Wataru nodded quickly: "Okay, Inspector Yumio, take care."

After several police cars drove away, Matsuda Jinpei said, "It looks like another arson has occurred somewhere."

Takagi Wataru sighed: "Inspector Yuminaga and his men are really working hard."

It's rush hour now, and it takes a while just to get stuck in traffic.

I didn't expect it to happen today.

Matsuda Jinpei patted Takagi Wataru's shoulder and said, "Go and call Sato and the others down. If it gets any later, we'll be stuck in traffic."

"it is good."

After a few friendly police officers came downstairs, we all went to the Rice Flower Restaurant together.

Because there are so many police officers participating in the banquet, the sixth floor of the Mihua Restaurant was fully booked today, becoming the main venue for the Metropolitan Police Department's celebration banquet.

When Baichuanqiu and the others arrived, many people had already gathered at the scene.

It must be said that the aura of a criminal police officer is very different from that of an ordinary person. When they stand there, their eyes are sharp and their aura is strong. Even when they are chatting with colleagues and friends, the eyes they look up at are sharp.

Shirakawa Akane was a little nervous at first, feeling that her presence would be abrupt, but after seeing Maori Kogoro and the others, that awkward feeling instantly disappeared, accompanied by the intuition that "it's over, something bad is going to happen."

No, why are the Maori family still haunting us?

It was then that Shirakawa noticed that Megure Jusan had also brought his wife. Many of the officers who had come had their families with them, making the scene seem less solemn and more lively.

Baichuanqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I have a lot of acquaintances, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

Hagiwara Kenji walked over from the other side and approached Shirakawa Akane with a smile: "How are you, Shirakawa? Are you feeling well?"

Bai Chuanqiu spread his hands: "I haven't done anything wrong. There are so many police officers here, I feel very safe."

He has now completely adapted to Conan's detective BUFF, and he is now completely different from before!

Hagiwara Kenji put his hands on his hips and gave me a meaningful look: "Is that so~~~"

Baichuan Qiu: "..."

Tsk, I'm in great spirits! Did Furuya and the others tell you about my social death?

unacceptable!

Shirakawa Qiu glared at the culprit, Conan, with half-moon eyes, and finally couldn't help asking, "Why are Mr. Maori and the others here too?"

Do they know what this means?

Hagiwara Kenji glanced at it and said nonchalantly, "It seems that Section Chief Matsumoto and his team invited them. After all, Detective Mori has helped the Investigation Section solve many cases."

Baichuan Qiu: "Haha, that's true."

From the perspective of Conan's high-intensity murders, why aren't the Mori family considered non-staff members of the Investigation Division?

Very (outrageous) and reasonable.

Maori Kogoro was originally talking to Megure Jusan. When he saw Shirakawa Akane, Hagiwara Kenji and others coming over, he greeted them with some surprise: "Shirakawa-kun? You're here today too!"

Baichuan Qiu greeted with a smile: "Mr. Maori, Xiaolan, Conan, you are here today too."

Mao Lilan and Conan replied: "Hello, Mr. Shirakawa."

Looking at the little Conan in front of him, Baichuan Qiu's thoughts couldn't help but diverge——

I don’t know what kind of case will happen this time.

"The squad leader isn't here today, so I'll introduce you to more people." Hagiwara Kenji put his arm around Shirakawa Akira's shoulders and said to her, "No matter what happens in the future, you'll have someone to protect you."

Matsuda Jinpei added: "But if you do commit a crime, the efficiency of being caught will be greatly improved."

Baichuan Qiu: "..."

Hehe, I thank you.

I'm really impressed. How come he, a criminal (reserve soldier), knows so many policemen?

The system was extremely excited, feeling as if it had infiltrated the police force: "Host, host, recognize a few more people. If plainclothes officers come to arrest you in the future, you can also find them first!"

Baichuan Qiu: "..."

And you, dog system, you didn’t let me go either!

Shirakawa Akira has an elegant and polite smile on her face. She is taken by the super social master Kenji Hagiwara to different departments and meet various police officers.

The most amazing thing is that most police officers originally had a very bad impression of him, but after Hagiwara Kenji's explanation, many police officers looked at him with a bit of regret and remorse.

Within half an hour, all the police officers attending the celebration banquet knew about Baichuan Qiu's affairs.

They regretted Shirakawa Akane's ability and felt sorry that the police force was missing such a talent. At the same time, they were also full of disgust for the former police academy principal Kazuya Tsukamura who expelled Shirakawa Akane.

If he had believed his students and insisted on investigating the case thoroughly instead of immediately distancing himself from them and kicking them out of the police academy, there would probably be very outstanding police officers in their team now.

Of course, there were also more perceptive police officers who sensed something unusual and looked Baichuan Qiu up and down with puzzled eyes.

But they said nothing, just kept the matter in their hearts, like a seed, waiting to take root and sprout.

In the end, even the highest leader who participated in the celebration banquet, the Minister of the Criminal Department, Toshio Odagiri, knew about the existence of Shirakawa Yu.

Who knew that Kenji Hagiwara had such strong social skills that he actually dragged Shirakawa Akane in front of Toshiro Odagiri.

Although Odagiri Toshio did not say much, he also expressed his regret for Shirakawa Akane.

Baichuan Qiu: "..."

Hagiwara, you have the ability and you will succeed in whatever you do!
