"Don't worry, they will stop after a few minutes." Conan had seen this scene more than once and was already used to it. "Can I see the photos, Officer Date?"
"Even though you're smart, those photos are very cruel, Conan kun."
"I'm not afraid!"
In the end, Conan failed to see those photos under Officer Date's strong opposition. Megumi Aiko and Matsuda Jinpei had also stopped fighting and started to talk about the case as they were about to enter the Metropolitan Police Department.
At this moment, a message flashed in front of her eyes.
[ICPO Undercover Agent in Winery[1]: Check the scene in XXX street within an hour or two. Don't forget to bring Conan]
Megumi Aiko was stunned and then she seemed to understand something.
If they wanted to capture Margaret, the best way would be to have the public security officer intervene in the case. But so far, no. 5 didn't want to while the other one, Furuya Rei, still hadn't appeared in Poirot Cafe just yet.
Still… she didn't understand why they wanted to use the local police officers.
Can they deal with Margaret?
From the battle that she saw from no. 7, it could be seen that Margaret is a very cruel person. Her attack was ruthless and she was by no means someone who would let them go even if they were police officers.
Her targets were all killed so cruelly that the people who watched it wanted to vomit.
If she was truly pushed into desperation… it was not impossible for her to kill them as revenge. After all, she was such a desperate criminal.
But this was only something that Megumi Aiko thought in her mind.
She had agreed to follow No. 5 and no. 1 order.
They were smarter than her and definitely had their own plans to let her get involved.
"Let's try to see the scene. We might be able to see something from the scene in Tokyo," Megumi Aiko gave suggestions.
And the other three people agreed.
"Is it really fine for you to follow us along, Conan?" Officer Date was clearly not used with Conan's presence. Even though the others had said that it was fine, he still looked at Conan with a complicated look.
No matter what, Conan is just an elementary school student in Officer Date's opinion.
It was impossible for him to fully trust the brat from the very beginning. So, Conan simply followed them while following Megumi Aiko.
As for why she trusted Conan so much….
That's naturally because Megumi Aiko needed Conan's help in various cases.
Conan when he heard it before: "..."
He felt that this police officer was really useless.
"This is the apartment building. The case happened last month, so the apartment is still empty, but it has been cleaned up after the scene was processed and all the photos have been taken. The family of four lived on the second floor and they're a family with average living income.
The son was said to have made bad friends, which they assumed to be the reason why the family was attacked. Unfortunately, no one saw who was here and the surveillance cameras in this area are broken."
Megumi Aiko looked at the building in front of her, suddenly feeling resistant to enter.
She had seen the photos from Officer Date.
And those pictures are even worse than what no. 3 sent.
Moreover, this is a real murder and not some fake scene like what no. 1 did.
The scale was completely different.
They easily entered the room and Conan started looking around. Megumi Aiko was bored since she was sure that she wouldn't be able to get anything. She walked to the balcony and looked outside.
She glanced at the restaurant on the other side of the street. It was a big restaurant and the second floor was filled with VIP rooms. The rooms were also decorated with large windows, allowing them to see the scenery outside.
Well, what they could see is the park and this apartment building, though.
One of the room's curtains swayed and Megumi Aiko swore that she saw blood splatter on the window.
"Matsuda! There's a murder in the restaurant on the opposite side!"
"What did you say?"
The four of them rushed over to the restaurant and Megumi Aiko reached the destination within a minute.
After saying excuse me, they pushed open the door.
Only to be greeted by the sight of blood splatter and bodies mutilated all over the room. Megumi Aiko's face paled as she turned around and nearly vomited. The waitress who followed them was shocked and screamed loudly.
"Kyaaaaa!
…
[Megumi Aiko [4]: (pic.jpg)
Megumi Aiko [4]: No. 1! Come out of here! The hell is this???
I thought there'll be a normal case, but what do you mean by giving such a cruel murder case to me? Do you want me to have nightmares?
High School Student [2]: ughhh. Take the damn picture back!
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Ahhh, no more! Why do I have to see such a scene again? Once is enough!
University Student [6]: no. 4!!!
ICPO Undercover Agent in Winery[1]: I thought you wanted to participate, so I told you the location where Margaret has her mission. I only received the information two hours ago and found out about it.
Doctor [9]: So that's a real scene.
Artist [11]: Ugh… I want to vomit
Journalist [12]: Wait! The decorations look familiar. Isn't that next door???
Megumi Aiko [4]: Wait, no. 12, you're here????
Journalist [12]: I was taking a break from an interview nearby okay? Damn, I was in the bathroom not long ago, so I don't have any alibi.
Undercover Agent from Metropolitan Public Security [7]: Given by how badly mutilated these people are… Do you really think that someone can do it within seconds or minutes??? Cutting bones isn't that easy.
Public Security Officer [5]: The cut was precise and it seemed she only cut their joints… Margaret's strength is really something.
She shouldn't have time to cut off all the limbs and only one or two, though. So the time of crimes are only a few minutes at most.
Megumi Aiko [4]: Margaret is really a woman, right???
Undercover Agent from Metropolitan Public Security [7]: Didn't you see the live stream from before? She's really a woman… a tall one at that. And her strength is a bit abnormal.
ICPO Undercover Agent in Winery[1]: Margaret's arm was modified in the laboratory because of injuries a few years ago. Be careful and if possible, try to cripple her arms first when you take action, no. 4
Megumi Aiko [4]: Got it. We're collecting the suspects since there are not many people using the second floor today. Uhm… Sano Marta, Tsukasa Rika, and Hikari Yuki.
High School Student [2]: It's one of the three, but Rika is no. 12.
Megumi Aiko [4]: And Hikari Yuki is so short… it's impossible for her to do it and her body frame doesn't match the video. So it can only be Sano Marta.]
