Snap!
Cold shackles were put on Aohara Daisuke's hands. As he was caught red-handed, any excuses he made would be a waste of time.
"Steal diamonds! Steal diamonds! I'll let you steal diamonds!"
Ishimoto Kyokichi slapped Aohara Daisuke's head hard a few times, and the pent-up anger in his heart almost burst out of his eyes:
"For a broken diamond, you killed two people. Is that really necessary? Now, you didn't get the diamond, and you have to go to jail. Do you feel better now?"
Hearing this, Sakaki Makoto's face changed and he wanted to open his mouth to stop him, but it was too late.
Aohara Daisuke, who was humiliated, suddenly raised his head and said angrily:
"Why do you accuse me of murder? Where is the evidence?"
"evidence?"
Ishimoto Kyokichi opened his mouth:
"Weren't you caught red-handed? Are you trying to play rogue?"
"I do want to steal diamonds, but does that mean that a person who steals diamonds must be a murderer?"
“.......”
Ishimoto Kyokichi was suddenly speechless.
He had been sure of victory, but now he was outmaneuvered.
What Aohara Daisuke said was right. The police did not have any evidence to prove that he killed Takenaka Momoe and Naoki Seiichi. They could only prove that he was guilty of stealing diamonds.
The sentencing levels for murder and theft are very different, and Kyokichi Ishimoto would not allow the case to end in such a whimper.
After all the effort, they couldn't even catch the criminal, and the case ended up being an unsolved mystery...
Forget about your face, even my grandma’s pants are gone!
no!
Absolutely not!
"Police department!"
A young policeman suddenly ran over, looking nervous and frightened, and shouted:
“Oh no!!!”
"What's your name?"
Ishimoto Kyokichi frowned and said calmly:
"The criminal has been caught, is there any need to panic? If even we police officers lose our composure, how can we protect the safety of the residents?!"
"The diamond... the diamond is lost..."
"Look, it's not a big deal, it's just...what?!"
Pulling up the policeman's clothes, Ishimoto Kyokichi shouted in a roaring voice:
"You guys lost a 300 carat diamond?!"
"No, we didn't lose it, you lost it..."
The young policeman was so sad that he couldn't even cry:
"We opened the bag you gave us and saw that the diamonds... the diamonds had turned into a broken stone!"
"Nonsense! I have been carrying the diamond with me except for when I was taking a bath just now. How could it turn into a broken stone out of thin air?!"
"Really? If you don't believe me, just check it out for yourself..."
The young police officer opened the bag and found that the diamond, which was originally covered with a layer of gray skin, had now become a stone of similar weight. It was a real stone and it was obvious that it was picked up from the roadside.
The police officers surrounding the scene looked at each other in confusion. It was impossible for the diamond to fly away out of thin air. Someone must have stolen it.
From yesterday till now, not many people have come into contact with diamonds, including the first discoverer, forensic doctor Toyokawa, Ishimoto Kyokichi himself, Aohara Daisuke, as well as Sakaki Makoto, Kid, and Conan, a total of no more than 6 people.
"Impossible... Impossible..."
Ishimoto Kyokichi said to himself:
"At 12 o'clock, I checked and the diamond was still there, so the diamond must have been swapped after 12 o'clock..."
Thinking of this, Ishimoto Kyokichi looked at Aohara Daisuke and asked:
"Did you do this?!"
"Oh..."
Aohara Daisuke sneered and pursed his lips at Sakaki Makoto and the other two:
"Inspector Ishimoto, I was caught just after I touched the diamond. How could it be possible that it was switched?"
"If you don't believe me, go search the bathroom. I haven't left since I got the diamond. If I did it, the diamond must still be in the bathroom, but..."
"Compared to me, aren't these three guys more suspicious? After all, they have been alone with the diamond for so long, it would be easy for them to switch it."
What he said made sense. Under the surveillance of Sakaki Makoto and the other two, it was impossible for Aohara Daisuke to switch the diamonds. This was also the reason why Ishimoto Kyokichi dared to agree to use the diamonds to lure the snake out of its hole.
Now, the snake has been lured out of its hole, and now the snake is out, and the bait is gone!
A group of Hakone police officers, including Kyokichi Ishimoto, looked at Sakaki Makoto and the other two, their strange eyes filled with doubt.
Makoto Sakaki is also a famous detective. Logically, he should not take risks for a diamond, but people's hearts are hidden. Under the temptation of huge profits, how many people can stick to their original intentions?
Miss Miyano, who had received the news, squeezed out of the crowd and saw that her boyfriend was in a bad situation. She immediately rushed over and blocked Ishimoto Kyokichi:
"You suspect him of stealing the diamond?"
"Detective Huihara, this..."
Ishimoto Kyokichi still felt in awe of Miss Miyano. He stood there awkwardly and said:
"There are only five suspects who could have swapped the diamond. It's impossible for Aohara Daisuke and I to do it, so the rest are probably them... Don't worry, we're just doing a simple body search. If we don't find the diamond, we'll make further plans."
Conan and Makoto Sakaki don’t care. Do they have any contraband on them?
No, Kidd is different...
This kid is covered in contraband. Wouldn't he be exposed if he were searched?
In order to prevent the police from taking coercive measures, Sakaki Makoto took the lead:
"Put yourself in their shoes. If we stole the diamond, we should have fled the scene immediately. Why would we stay and wait to be caught?"
The policemen remained silent. They also felt that Sakaki Makoto and the other two were not that stupid. However, there were no other suspects. They couldn't just point at Ishimoto Kyokichi's nose and say, "We're going to search you!"
