Chapter 568: The criminal cries and begs to surrender

Early in the morning, Inspector Megure brought the police to the entrance of the apartment.

"How strange. Lord Akaso said someone here wants to surrender, and it's for a case from a few years ago. Can such a thing really happen?"

He muttered while knocking on the door.

The door opened by itself, and the morning sun shone into the dark corridor.

Several men were lying on the ground, hugging each other.

"Eh? Kogoro Mouri, Conan, why are you here?"

Inspector Megure was confused.

Just as he wanted to ask clearly, a person wearing a skull T-shirt suddenly jumped up when he saw the sunlight and hugged Inspector Megure's thigh tightly.

"Help, there are ghosts!"

"There are so many ghosts inside, everywhere, it's too terrifying!"

"I, I want to surrender!"

"Hurry up and lock me in prison; I can't take it anymore."

"We killed that woman Tanokure four years ago, and I have an accomplice in the building across the street. Hurry up and arrest me; I want to surrender."

Huh?

Inspector Megure was stunned, "Someone really wants to surrender! Lord Akaso was right after all."

"What? Akaso Kaze?"

Hearing this name, Conan, whose gaze was a bit dull, suddenly woke up.

"Inspector Megure, are you saying that Akaso-niichan called you to say someone wants to surrender?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Inspector Megure asked puzzledly.

"So that's how it is!"

Conan felt very aggrieved in his heart.

That's right, how could there be ghosts in this world? It must be the Onmyoji's trick.

This guy's reasoning is better than mine, and his schemes must be better than mine too.

If it were him, deceiving the eyes and ears of me and Kogoro Mouri would be no problem.

Yes, that's right, these are all the Onmyoji's tricks; how could there be ghosts in this world?

In the afternoon, near the Shide house.

Inside the FBI's temporary stronghold, Jodie held binoculars and saw the Vermouth-disguised Dr. Shide walk out of the clinic, immediately stood up, and spoke to the subordinates around her with a serious expression:

"Vermouth just moved two boxes into the Shide house; we must find out what's inside them."

"Next, the second and third teams will remotely monitor Vermouth and pay attention to what she does. If she comes back, notify us immediately; the fourth and fifth teams, you come with me to sneak into the Shide house to investigate!"

"Yes, Agent Jodie!"

The subordinates around answered in unison and then prepared.

Not long after, Jodie and the others disguised themselves as cleaning company staff and snuck into the Shide house together.

Jodie observed the surroundings while communicating the situation with her colleagues using an earpiece intercom.

Suddenly, a subordinate's voice came: "Agent Jodie, there are a few more photos on the mirror in the restroom here!"

"Hmm? What photos?" Jodie said, walked over curiously, and saw three photos stuck on the mirror: one was a photo of a girl in a princess dress, one was a boy who looked like a high school student, and another was an elementary school student who looked very similar to the high school boy.

Besides that, "Angel" was written on the girl's photo, and "Coolguy" was written on the photos of the high school boy and the elementary school student.

Jodie looked at the three photos carefully, vaguely feeling a sense of familiarity, and couldn't help but ask the person next to her: "Strange, why do I feel that the people in the photos are all familiar?"

After Jodie finished speaking, the person next to her immediately replied: "Agent Jodie, that girl is Mouri Ran, and her father is Tokyo's top detective, Kogoro Mouri..."

"And that elementary school student is Edogawa Conan, who is living in the detective agency; as for that high school boy, it should be Kudo Shinichi."

The person next to her introduced the people in the photos, but Jodie still frowned, staring at the photos.

"So it's these people; Vermouth disguised herself as Dr. Shide and snuck into Teitan High School just for this 'Angel'?"

"Also, why would Vermouth label the little boy in the photo as 'Coolguy'? Shouldn't a child be 'kid'?"

Jodie pondered, and the FBI agents around also summarized the investigation situation to Jodie.

Unknowingly, more than ten minutes passed, and a voice came from Jodie's intercom: "Agent Jodie, the target is walking toward the Shide house, expected to arrive in ten minutes!"

Jodie was taken aback, replied "Received," and then turned to look at the subordinates around her, saying coldly: "Everyone pay attention, restore everything in the room to its original state in five minutes and prepare to retreat!"

"Yes! Agent Jodie!"

Ten minutes later, Vermouth walked into the house with a pile of ingredients, humming a song while putting things into the refrigerator, and then walked toward the restroom.

With a "creak," the restroom door opened.

Vermouth was about to go in when she suddenly stiffened, looked at a hair on the floor, her water-green eyes narrowed slightly, and then she entered the restroom as usual, took off her pants, and sat on the toilet.

"Someone has been here; who did this?" A sharp light flashed in Vermouth's eyes. ===== CHAPTER 570 =====
