Um?

Conan subconsciously said Qin Zhibo's name in the parallel world, causing the three little ones and Haihara Ai to look puzzled.

"Conan, where is your father?"

"Where? Where?"

Ayumi and Genta put their hands over their eyes and looked around. They only saw someone who seemed to be Conan's mother. Conan's father has always been a mysterious figure.

Conan also realized that he called it wrong and quickly started over.

"No way! I'm talking about Uncle Qin~"

Although the three little ones are not smart, they at least know how to count. They immediately retorted: "But you just said one word, 'Uncle Qin' is three words!"

"And the pronunciation is also very different." Mitsuhiko added.

Conan: It’s times like this when you become smarter...

At this time, Qin Zhibo came over, put his hand on Conan's head and rubbed it affectionately.

"Conan may have subconsciously called me that just because I look like his father..."

"Right? Conan?"

Qin Zhibo lowered his head and looked at Conan, with a fatherly smile that Conan couldn't refuse.

"Yes, hehe..."

Conan curled up his lips and could only bear the loss of being dumb with a smile.

Hui Yuan Ai had a cold look on his face and silently watched the whole process, murmuring in his mouth.

"fool."

At this moment, the policeman who had just spoken to the Young Detective Team also asked in a rough voice.

"You look familiar. Are you an arsonist I investigated before?"

Qin Zhibo turned to look at the policeman next to him. He had a stocky build, a wide chin with a mountain-shaped beard, and a flat head that looked like it had been trimmed with a ruler.

The name above the head is Gongchang Police Department.

Police Department Zhang?

"Am I an arsonist?"

Qin Zhibo smiled slightly, "If I were an arsonist, with my foreign mixed-race face, it shouldn't be easy to forget, right?"

In fact, this police officer Zhang had already recognized Qin Zhibo's identity. He just wanted to seize the opportunity to communicate and did not want to lose momentum, so he said this deliberately.

After all, not all police officers are like the Megu Police Department, hoping that detectives will "point their fingers" in the cases they are responsible for.

Police Officer Zhang was slightly stunned when he heard Qin Zhibo's answer. He didn't expect that his words could be easily deciphered.

Qin Zhibo didn't want to make the atmosphere too tense, so he directly extended his hand.

"My name is Qin Zhibo, and I am a detective."

Police Officer Zhang looked at Qin Zhibo's extended hand. It would be stingy to refuse, so he could only accept it.

"Search Section 1 Fire Criminals Section 1, Gongchang Police Department."

"Hello, Officer Zhang."

Gongchang Police Department: "?"

After the two shook hands, Qin Zhibo turned his head and asked the young detective team for information.

With the chirping of the three little ones and the appropriate supplements from Conan, Qin Zhibo quickly understood why several people appeared here.

It turns out that the son of the landlord of Mima Village Apartment went to Didan Primary School.

When Qin Zhibo was renting a house before, he met the landlord's son, named Sugiura Kairen.

This Sugiura Kaito recently discovered that a certain tenant in his apartment would behave suspiciously at night.

In order to find out what this man was doing, Sugiura Kaito found the Young Detective Team.

However, Sugiura Kaito had his own activities in the evening yesterday, so the few of them agreed to spend the night in the apartment after school this afternoon.

It only takes one night to figure out what this person is secretly doing.

But when the Young Detective Team came to deliver warmth today, they didn't expect that the "warmth" had arrived early, and the Trojan Manor had been burned into ruins.

"That means the fire started last night?"

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised after hearing the description from the Young Detective Team.

He originally thought it was a normal fire during the day. With Tohru Amuro's skills and Shuichi Akai's intuition, there should be no danger.

But if there is a possibility of arson, it may not be safe.

Fortunately, he turned to Police Officer Zhang behind him and learned that the fire did not cause too many casualties.

"Except for the landlord and the kid who called Kai Ren, who are still in a coma in the hospital, the other tenants escaped in time."

"There were three other tenants who happened to be out when the fire broke out, and they only came back this morning..."

"But if we go by what these children said, maybe this incident was not an accident."

Police Officer Zhang was listening to the exchange between Qin Zhibo and the child, and unknowingly fell into the rhythm of solving the case.

"Where are those three people now?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Police Department Zhang replied: "They came here once this morning, asked them to make a transcript, left their identity information and contact information, and then let them go."

"I'll ask someone to call them back now..."

Police Officer Zhang put his pockets in his pocket and walked to the other side to arrange his men.

After Police Officer Zhang left, Conan asked curiously: "Uncle Qin, are you here to find Dr. A Li?"

Qin Zhibo thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, uncle came to Mima Village to find my apprentice."

"apprentice?"

Conan and the three little ones shared a puzzled look.

Immediately, Conan remembered that Qin Zhibo did have an assistant or a student before. In short, there was such a person.

When Hui Yuan Ai next to him heard Qin Zhibo mention "apprentice", his eyes immediately widened.

It's him!

Haibara Ai's mind recalled the handsome dark-skinned blond guy, who had triggered radar warnings for him more than once before.

After several contacts, the heart palpitations caused by the radar warning gradually weakened, but the uncomfortable feeling still existed.

Later, this person disappeared from Qin Zhibo's office.

Qin Zhibo himself said that he was going back to his hometown to do some things and would not be able to come back for a while.

It turns out that this person lives in Mima Village?

Next door to Dr. Agasa's house?

Hui Yuan Ai's expression gradually became serious, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

She quietly tugged on Conan's sleeve, gesturing for him to take a step to speak.

Conan turned around and saw Hui Yuan Ai's strange expression. He was a little surprised and followed her to the back of a police car.

"What's wrong?"

"It's that person..."

"Who?"

As soon as Conan finished speaking, he remembered that Hui Yuan Ai once said that he felt the aura of the black organization in Qin Zhibo's apprentice.

But first of all, Conan himself still has reservations about Haibara Ai's radar reaction.

After all, people can identify a specific group of people by intuition, which has no scientific basis.

Secondly, Conan himself did not find any abnormality in that apprentice.

Besides, if he was really a member of the organization, it would be impossible to hide it from Qin Zhibo's eyes.

Now, Conan still very much recognizes Qin Zhibo's strength.

"Don't worry, it's absolutely impossible for organized members to lurk around Qin Zhibo..."

Hui Yuan Ai frowned, "But what if Qin Zhibo also makes a mistake?"

"Did he make a mistake?"

Conan did not answer immediately, but seriously thought about Haihara Ai's concerns.

A few seconds later, he replied: "I can probe Qin Zhibo's tone again and confirm this person's background."

"Yes." Hui Yuan Ai nodded, agreeing to this plan.

After the two discussed, they walked out from behind the police car and happened to see Qin Zhibo making a phone call.
