56. Five yuan copper plate

"You're thinking too much."

Conan, who heard it next to him, quickly said: "And Mr. Akai has already..."

"Diet?" The sudden appearance of deliberately lowering but unconcealed surprise was the tourists behind several people.

"Are you serious?"

"That's right, everyone was talking about it behind the bathroom."

"Let's go and have a look."

After the gossip tourists left, Conan also received a call from Dr. Agasa.

"Doctor, what's wrong?"

"Shinichi, no, someone was killed." Dr. Agasa's voice sounded quite panicked, "I just witnessed a murder case."

"What! You said you witnessed a murder case?" Conan said in surprise.

Azumi and others next to them were shocked and worried.

"Anyway, come here quickly, there are already many people watching the fun here." Dr. Agasa said: "I think you will know the location at a glance."

Conan looked around and Chen Xing pointed in a direction, "It should be there."

There were many people around there, which were very conspicuous.

"Did you see the murderer?" Conan asked while running.

"Because of the shade of the trees, I only saw my approximate figure and even knocked it several times with a stick of about 30 cm." Dr. Agasa said with lingering fear.

"Sorry, I borrowed it." Judy separated the crowd watching the fun, and Conan took the opportunity to get in.

Chen Xing and a few children also came to the forefront.

It was by the wall of the bathroom, and a figure with blood on his face was sitting back. It was the woman who had shouted for pickpockets before, but now she is dead.

"Didn't that person just bump into Teacher Judy's aunt?" Yuan Tai said in surprise.

Chen Xing looked around.

"Who are you looking for?" Haibara Ai asked.

"Maybe the murderer can be found." Chen Xing said.

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Ai Haibara hugged his arms and his expression obviously didn't care.

"From this point, it should have been killed not long ago." Judy briefly checked the body.

"Black Soldier," Conan frowned and saw three five-yuan copper plates painted with microphones next to the body.

"Black Soldier?" Judy looked puzzled.

"It's the nickname of pickpockets." Conan said: "Because they would put three blackened five-yuan copper plates onto the person being stripped, they had this title."

"Why do you do this?"

"What I heard is that 5 yuan copper plates are black, 3 three copper plates are combined into 5 black and 3. 'You work hard to make money, just to let me take it away, so thank you so much'.

While Conan was explaining, police officers from nearby came hurriedly.

As soon as he saw the two talking beside the corpse, he immediately said, "What are you doing? Get out of the victim quickly!"

"I am FBI agent Judy Steelin." Judy took out her ID and lit it. "Please block the entrance and exit of this shrine immediately, and the police officer comes over to deal with it!"

"Okay." The policeman nodded quickly.

Judy looked at Conan, "So, is the prisoner the black soldiers you mentioned?"

"No." Conan said in a deep voice: "The coin wallet in this person's arms is filled with blackened five-yuan copper plates. I think she is actually the Black Soldier."

As he said that, he put a handkerchief on his palm and groped directly in the arms of the corpse.

"In her wallet...a bundle of banknotes wrapped with rubber bands, and this one is a GPS sender."

"Message sender?" Judy was stunned.

Conan nodded, "If you use a mobile phone to receive it, the positioning error will not exceed five meters."

Judy pondered: "The banknotes tied with rubber bands are wrapped in the wallet of this pickpocket, which means..."

Conan took a deep breath, "Yes, I guess the person who took off this wallet by Black Budwei is probably the murderer."

After a while, Officer Meguchi and others arrived.

"Miss Judy, this is not good." Takagi Shizuki said: "Even if you are an internationally renowned agent in FBI, this is Japan, and you are on vacation and you are coming to Japan on a private itinerary, right? If you give orders to the police casually, then our Japanese police will be blind."

It seems that the Japanese police are very respectful to the reputation of being able to make an honest person say so much in one breath.

"I'm so sorry." Judy apologized: "Because of normal habits, I accidentally..."

She changed her subject, "But, the scene is very far from the entrance and exit of the shrine, and judging from the situation of the deceased, it should not be long before she was killed. Thanks to the blockade of the entrance and exit of the shrine, the prisoner should have been locked in it."

"No, the order you just issued was very correct, and it did help a lot." Takagi Shira scratched his head.

"But is it true?" Officer Meguri asked after seeing the body: "Who was killed by a blunt weapon, is the pickpocket black soldier who has been searching for many years in the third lesson?"

"I think it shouldn't be wrong." Conan explained the previous discovery.

Takagi nodded, "That's right. It is said that Black Soldier seems to put three blackened five-yuan copper plates onto the person locked in the person being stripped."

Officer Memu turned to Dr. Agasa next to him, "Mr. Agasa, I heard that you have witnessed the murder of this black soldier?"

"Yes, I happened to see this when I was going to the bathroom and was about to pass here." Dr. Agasa recalled and felt a numbness in the Mediterranean. "Because the shade of the trees was dim, I thought at first I was hitting wooden stakes or something here."

"What about the murderer's appearance?"

"Because it was too dark, I only saw a rough figure." Dr. Agasa recalled: "The man was wearing a hat and holding a slender stick of about thirty centimeters in his hand, that's all."

Takagi asked: "Does the murderer have other characteristics?"

Dr. Agasa thought for a moment, "When the murderer was about to leave the scene, his feet seemed to be dragging the ground, so I asked him if it was important."

"How did the murderer answer?" Takagi Sugh said hurriedly.

Dr. Agasa shook his head and said, "It seems that he didn't hear me. When I knew that the person was hitting the victim, he disappeared into the crowd."

"So that's it." Takagi Suk said: "Officer, if he would drag his feet when he usually wants to leave quickly, then..."

"It doesn't feel like it was performed specially to cover up." Officer Memu looked at the onlookers, "It is almost impossible to find out the murderer from so many flower viewers."

"I think the scope can be narrowed down." Just as the two were worried, Conan suddenly spoke: "Because there were strange things in that aunt's wallet."

"It's a GPS sender wrapped in money," Judy added.
