"Are you sure he hasn't been released yet?"
Conan questioned:
"No matter which country, once a person is imprisoned for a crime, as long as he behaves well, he will have the opportunity to get his sentence reduced. In many cases, there are many examples where a person is sentenced to 20 years but actually serves less than 10 years!"
"Of course I know that."
Hattori Heiji said:
"But because that person's crime was serious and endangered national security, and he refused to repent and insisted on his own opinion in front of the prosecutor, he was deprived of even the opportunity to have his sentence reduced."
"You can still remember things that happened 10 years ago so clearly?"
"I couldn't help it. It was my birthday that day, and I was just celebrating halfway when my dad received a call from the police. He picked up his clothes and rushed out. It left a deep impression on me."
"Nothing is absolute. We still need to check the information retained by the police to avoid missing any important information."
"Um."
Sakaki Makoto and his companions arrived at the blockade and were about to leave the station when they suddenly heard a familiar voice behind them.
"Heiji! Heiji! Wait for me!"
Everyone looked back and saw that the person coming was none other than Inspector Otaki Goro of the First Investigation Division of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.
"Uncle Otaki, why are you here?"
Seeing the other party, Hattori was stunned for a moment:
"Did my dad send you here to keep an eye on us?"
“No, no…”
Otaki Goro waved his hands repeatedly, and seeing that everyone looked unconvinced, he explained:
"It's really not my order. It was Minister Yuanshan who asked me to help you."
Everyone looked at each other, somewhat disapprovingly.
Who doesn’t know the relationship between Toyama Ginjiro and Hattori Heizo?
His order was the intention of Hattori Heizo.
"Heiji, I think you guys want to go to the headquarters to look up information about the case back then."
Otaki Goro says:
"That requires entering the archives room. You are not police officers and have no right to enter. Even if you find a way to get in, you cannot integrate the results into your reasoning, otherwise you will violate the law."
"Minister Yuanshan anticipated this and asked me to take you in... By the way, I just met a young man who claimed to be your friend."
It was only then that Sakaki Makoto and the others noticed that there was a person standing behind Otaki Goro. Because of the angle, the other person was completely blocked by Otaki Goro's broad and strong body.
"Hi."
Bourbon appeared from behind Otaki Goro and waved to Sakaki Makoto with a smile.
"Aren't you a waiter in the cafe downstairs?"
Mao Lilan looked at him with some surprise.
Except for Otaki Goro, everyone present knew Bourbon. After all, he worked in the cafe downstairs from the office and they saw each other every day, so they were considered acquaintances.
But friends definitely don't count.
"I was going to visit a relative in Kobe. What a coincidence that we were all taking the same train."
Bourbon said with a smile:
"Since I have nothing to do anyway, I was thinking that we should all go together to investigate the criminal's clues. What do you think, Mr. Sakaki Makoto?"
A ball was cleverly kicked to Sakaki Makoto's feet.
As a fellow member of the organization, at this moment, Sakaki Makoto would definitely help the other party. However, before he could say anything, Maori Kogoro on the side took the lead in expressing his opinion.
"Huh, what kind of coincidence? I think you did it on purpose."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!
Especially Conan, who looked at Mouri Kogoro in horror. Although he knew that Mouri Kogoro would occasionally have a burst of energy and become a different person, he couldn't do that now!
Bourbon was the person sent by Rum to monitor him. If Kogoro Mori realized Bourbon's intention, the last thing he should do was to reveal the other party's identity!
Playing dumb is the best!
But now that things have been said, it’s too late to stop it.
"Mr. Maori, seriously, what are you talking about..."
Bourbon took a half step back with a smile on his face:
"Why would I deliberately follow you?"
"Following us? When did I say you were following us?"
Maori Kogoro said coldly:
"You took this train not to visit relatives in Kobe, but to commit a crime!"
"....ah?"
Bourbon was dumbfounded, Makoto Sakaki was dumbfounded, everyone was dumbfounded.
"First of all, the slightly plump woman's son has a standard Tokyo accent, so I judged that she was from Tokyo, which can also be seen from her ticket."
Shaking his head, Maori Kogoro talked eloquently and started to reason:
"Although there are many people taking the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka every day, who would want to escape the scene the most after the explosion? It must be the criminal!"
"Besides, you only started working in the cafe after Hattori Heiji came to Tokyo. The director just said that the criminal's target is likely his son, so I have sufficient reason to doubt your purpose of working in the cafe!"
"Finally, you want to use your connections to escape from the station, or wait for an opportunity to assassinate Hattori Heiji again!"
"In summary...."
"The person who planned this explosion and kidnapped the little girl is you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room was shocked.
Sakaki Makoto's cheeks twitched, as if there was something stuck in his throat, and he couldn't refute it.
To be honest, Kogoro Mori has a rich imagination, and at least Makoto Sakaki has never doubted Bourbon.
The most exaggerated thing is...
This reasoning is quite neat!
Apart from the motive, basically all the factors are gathered together. If Makoto Sakaki didn't know Bourbon's true identity, he would have to think about it carefully.
Conan next to him was so ecstatic that he almost laughed out loud. He knew that the uncle would not let him down!
With just a few simple words, you can establish your own image!
If there is a universal reasoning method in the world, it must be the gross profit elimination method.
"Dad, how could Mr. Amuro be the criminal?"
Mao Lilan wondered:
"He has no motive to blow up Shin-Osaka Station!"
"That's because your reasoning was wrong from the very beginning!"
Maori Kogoro said with a firm expression:
"The criminal didn't intend to blow up the station at all. He just wanted to murder Hattori Heiji! Blowing up the station was just a cover-up!"
Nice!
Conan snapped his fingers, turned his back, covered his mouth, and dared not make a sound, but he laughed so hard that tears came out.
he...
I really can't hold it in anymore.
"Mr. Sakaki, great minds think alike. Tell me, is my reasoning correct?"
Kogoro Mori looked at Makoto Sakaki and asked him what he thought.
"No...Huh?"
Just as Makoto Sakaki was about to deny Kogoro Mori's reasoning, his body suddenly shook and he thought of a possibility.
Was blowing up the station just a smoke screen?
Is this reasoning really wrong?
Toyama Ginjiro said that the criminal wanted to take revenge on him and Hattori Heizo, so he arranged the bombing against Hattori Heiji. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it, and there is nothing wrong with it if you think about it carefully, but...
There is nothing wrong with what Kogoro Mori said!
