Sato Miwako finished her words quickly, and quickly calmed herself down from the excitement of finding the murderer of her father: "When did Shikano Shuji show up at the station? Do you still remember?"

Takagi Wataru tried to think carefully, but failed to remember:

"Before, my attention was focused on the arson suspect, and I didn't notice if there were any suspicious people around. It was when I was taking the elevator up and observing Jiang Xia that I suddenly found him next to Jiang Xia... By the way, we met Mr. Shikano in Haido Town. He should have come here by subway, so he came here about 7 minutes ago!"

Speaking of this, Shuji Shikano actually stayed in the subway for such a long time for no reason and suddenly went to scam Jiang Xia.

...It's becoming more and more suspicious.

Miwako Sato also heard something wrong.

She flipped through the communication records, her face grim: "7 minutes ago... That was when I was talking to Jiang Xia - at that time Jiang Xia mentioned some speculations about the real culprit of the 'Chou Silang Incident'. It may be that at that time, his words were heard by Shikano Shuji.

"Jiang Xia has only heard of this case and has never seen the suspect. He may not be on guard against the old man. If..."

If a murderer who only has one day left to escape prosecution suddenly encounters a roadblock that he doesn't know how high or deep the sky is when he is about to open a new chapter in his life...

Thinking of this, Sato Miwako couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

She subconsciously exchanged glances with the clever pupil with glasses next to her and said to herself, "Could it be..."

The clever elementary school student had obviously also overheard her phone call, and his expression was equally grim: "... Could it be that he went to attack Jiang Xia and was beaten to death by Jiang Xia? The elderly are physically weak..."

Sato: "...?"

…Even elementary school students know that Jiang Xia loves to beat people up. What’s wrong with this detective?!

Sato Miwako sighed anxiously.

Originally she was just worried about Jiang Xia's safety.

Now that Conan said this, she began to worry about Jiang Xia's reputation again...

Although she hated the prisoner, she wanted him to be punished and put in jail after being tried, rather than being beaten to death for no apparent reason and dragging a promising young detective into the case...

"… Report a kidnapping." Sato Miwako turned to Takagi on the phone, "Takagi, let me borrow your name. If it turns out that this was just a misunderstanding, you can say you had no knowledge of it and I will take the responsibility."

Then she hung up and called back to headquarters:

"Someone witnessed a high school student being kidnapped at Shinagawa Station. Please send someone to search the area immediately. The characteristics of the two people are..."

…

Shinagawa subway station.

Takagi Shigeru looked at the hung up phone, took out the address book, and continued to dial Jiang Xia, trying to get in touch with the high school student who suddenly lost contact, and remind him to be careful about the elderly around him.

After pressing the dial button, Takagi looked at the number on the screen and suddenly realized something a little too late.

——Before he said that the real culprit of the "Shou Shilang Incident" was suspected to be Shuji Shikano, Officer Sato seemed to have suspected Shuji Shikano first.

So, Officer Sato had said before, "She will marry whoever can solve this puzzle"... No, it was "She will grant a wish to whoever can solve this puzzle", but of course, that was it...

Gao Mu sighed sadly.

Then calm was quickly restored.

...Looking at the bright side, even if he was given this opportunity, he would be too embarrassed to ask for things like "Marry me!", "Be my girlfriend!", "Let's have a workplace romance!", etc. The most likely thing is to ask Officer Sato to have dinner together.

So, rounding it off, now that Sato Miwako has solved the puzzle herself, for Takagi Wataru, he has only lost a dinner, but for a shameless competitor, that man has lost a wife.

...After all, according to Officer Sato's characteristic of always keeping her word, even if someone really proposed to her in this way, she would probably agree.

Thinking of this, Takagi Shigeru's mood instantly improved a lot.

In addition, according to Officer Sato, Jiang Xia seemed to have given her a lot of clues about the "Chou Silang incident."

If this good thing of fulfilling a wish falls on Jiang Xia...

Takagi Shigeru couldn't help but feel nervous.

Then he pondered for a moment and let it go.

...Even if Jiang Xia really proposed to Officer Sato, Sato would probably just ask Jiang Xia to study hard and consider this issue after graduation. After all, there is an age difference between them of nearly ten years, and Officer Sato would not do such a thing to harm such a young girl.

In addition, no matter how you look at it, Jiang Xia is not as enthusiastic about Sato Miwako as he and Shiratori are. Instead, he avoids her a little. Especially when knocking people. Isn't this even better...

...No, now is not the time to think about these messy things.

We have to find Jiang Xia and Shikano Shuji as soon as possible. If we can find them, Officer Sato will definitely be very happy. The lost dinner can probably be replaced immediately.

…

Jiang Xia’s phone was set to vibrate mode.

The subway station is very noisy, and the buzzing vibration sound can be easily covered up.

But after leaving the station, following the directions given by Shuji Shikano, the two gradually turned towards a very quiet place.

When you receive a call at this time, the sound suddenly becomes much clearer.

Shinagawa 6-chome, in an abandoned warehouse.

Jiang Xia took out his vibrating cell phone and glanced at the screen. He neither answered nor hung up.

He swung the baton with his other hand - Shikano Shuji tried to rush out of the warehouse in one breath while he was distracted, but was cleverly deflected by the tip of the baton and staggered back to the corner.

"...You, what on earth do you want to do?!" Shikano Shuji fell to the ground, looking at the "enthusiastic person" who was blocking his way. He gritted his teeth and kept a straight face, but couldn't help showing a little fear in his eyes.

"Don't steal other people's lines." Jiang Xia muted his phone completely, put it back in his pocket, and looked at Shikano Shuji with condemnation, "I was kind enough to send you home, but you turned a blind eye and attacked me..."

As he spoke, he took a step closer and raised his hand. Against the backdrop of the setting sun behind him, it was like a ray of light of justice.

However, in Shuji Shikano's eyes, he only saw a devil.

…

At the same time.

Dozens of kilometers away, in the suburbs of Tokyo.

In front of a desolate detached house, a woman in a long windbreaker and sunglasses pushed open the door, walked quickly across the courtyard and into the room.

As soon as Gen Hongna entered the living room, she saw Koizumi Hongzi standing in a corner of the living room, looking at the new magic circle on the ground in confusion.

Yuan Hongna took off her sunglasses, frowned and reminded her: "Be careful, don't break it."
