Chapter 3306 3318 [The FBI is catching cats again]

Mao Lilan opened her mouth, then closed it again without saying anything about Judy.

If you think rationally, it sounds too strange to suspect that someone around you has a problem just because of a facial expression. After all, Teacher Judy is just a high school foreign teacher. What could be wrong with her? At most, she might have conspired to make the test questions more difficult.

"Besides, maybe when Teacher Judy has a stomachache, she will also show that kind of painful expression. Before we figure it out, we should not talk nonsense. First... um, observe first."

After a moment of thinking, Mao Lilan evaded Conan's question and then carefully began her own observation.

Jiang Xia looked at her, then at Judy, then retracted his gaze and looked back at the crime scene. He said to Inspector Megure, "Since we are here, let's watch the complete video first. Maybe we can find more key information."

Inspector Megure was thinking the same thing. He turned on the camera, went back to the moment before the crime occurred, and then began to watch it carefully.

In the camera's picture.

Nagase Baota, who had the same hairstyle as Suzuki Sonoko, was sitting at the table to rest. Suddenly, he looked towards the door and said, "It's you."

Officer Takagi tilted his head, as if trying to see the person outside the screen: "The one who came in should be the murderer."

In the video, Nagase Baota obviously didn't know his future fate. He stood up, spread his hands and said, "Why did you come to me? I have nothing to say to you - or are you planning to give me a gift by deliberately losing to me in the final later?"

At this moment, the picture suddenly shook.

Inspector Megure asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

Jiang Xia pointed at the luggage on the ground: "When the murderer came in, he accidentally kicked the bag that contained the camera."

Sure enough, the camera quickly regained stability. At this time, a man wearing a "wolf-faced warrior" mask, holding a dagger, slowly walked into the picture.

Nagase Baotai didn't notice the dagger hidden behind his back, and continued to speak provocatively. But just when he turned his back to the wolf-headed man, the wolf-headed man rushed forward and stabbed him in the back.

Nagase Baota turned around in shock and was stabbed in the abdomen again. At this time, he seemed to have discovered something and was about to speak loudly, but before he could speak, the murderer covered his mouth.

At this point, Nagase Baota finally made some movement other than being dazed. He raised his hand with difficulty and grabbed the murderer's hood, as if he wanted to tear it off.

Seeing this, Officer Gao Mu remembered something and said to Jiang Xia, "The bloody hood we found in the restroom just now has a crack about 10 centimeters long under its right eye."

As he was speaking, a muffled groan was heard from the camera. Everyone looked closely and saw that the murderer stabbed Nagase Baota in the heart.

The last blow finally took away Nagase Baota's life. The strong wrestler leaned against the wall and slowly slid to the ground, leaving a long trail of blood on the wall.

Strangely, the murderer did not run away immediately. Instead, he stood in front of him with a dagger in his hand, looking around as he backed away, as if he was frantically searching for something.

After taking two steps back, he tripped over the chair behind him and fell backwards awkwardly, right in front of the camera. Then he got up and hurriedly left the room.

"Leaving now?" Inspector Megure looked disappointed. "What a pity! If the hood had fallen off during that fall, things would have been much easier."

Jiang Xia looked at Officer Gao Mu: "When the murderer left the lounge, he was covered in blood. He should be very recognizable - have any witnesses seen him?"

"Yes... yes!" Officer Takagi actually remembered someone:

"When I was questioning just now, a rookie wrestler said that when he came out of the restroom, he saw a man wearing the same team uniform with a towel on his head passing by him and walking into the restroom."

"At the time, he thought that a senior had fought with his opponent and broke his opponent's nose, so he was covered in blood. But now that he thinks about it... that person might be the murderer."

Inspector Megure understood: "It seems that the murderer had prepared in advance. He hid a clean coat in the toilet beforehand, so that after killing someone and changing clothes, he could blend in with his teammates openly."

He looked at his men who were packing the bodies to be carried away and asked: "About when did the deceased die?"

Officer Gao Mu was like an intelligence gathering center: "The exact time of death is still being calculated, so I can't give a very accurate range for now."

Jiang Xia pointed at the camera and said, "From this video, three minutes after the murderer committed the crime, there was a cheer in the background and someone was shouting Mr. Kiba's name. This should be the scene when he won."

"I see." Officer Takagi circled a suspect's name and moved him back - the first person to discover the body is often an important suspect. As the first person to come into the lounge with Jiang Xia and to have contact with the body, the squinty-eyed Mr. Kiba undoubtedly received special attention from the police.

But now, Mr. Kiba probably didn't have time to commit the crime, because he was playing in a game when the murderer killed someone. Officer Takagi began to look through the schedule: "Mr. Kiba's game time, I remember it should be..."

"Around 7:20." A deep voice came from beside them.

Jiang Xia looked in the direction of the voice and saw the heavyweight Mr. Kiba walking over with three middleweight fighters who were a size smaller than him.

Kiba gestured to the four team members behind him. These were the people the police had asked him to help find. "Their body shapes are most similar to Nagase and the Wolf-Faced Warrior. Of course, the Wolf-Faced Warrior himself is here too."

"Also..." He stroked his chin, "When I was looking for someone just now, I saw a stranger running by stealthily. But his body shape was different from the person you were looking for. Instead, he looked similar to me, so I ignored him. Maybe that reporter sneaked in."

…

The other side.

“A-choo!”

A sturdy foreign man sneezed, looked down at his phone, and then looked up at the vent.

After a short standoff with the black cat standing at the vent, he sighed, took out his phone helplessly, and dialed a number:

"Mr. Akai, I have found the person who carried the bug, uh, the cat - yes, I am sure that the person who was running around with the bug that Judy had placed was a cat."

"..." Akai Shuichi was silent for a moment, "The one where everything else is black except the claws which are white?"

"Yes!" The FBI nodded, "It looks familiar, but I forgot where I've seen it..."

Akai Hide nodded, as if he understood a lot in an instant: "That's Usa's cat."

FBI: “!!!”
