"Well, according to the law, if someone isn't a criminal but pretends to be one, it's one of the most serious crimes among identity fraud."
Tang Ze touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then looked at Akimoto Yasuyo, who looked a little depressed, and said, "Ms. Akimoto, I understand your feelings. After all, you feel that the other party has helped you many times.
However, until you find out his purpose in impersonating a criminal, I advise you to put away your sympathy.
Because the other party is impersonating a criminal, it is very likely that it is to facilitate crimes such as scouting and theft.
Because I always run into you, so in order not to arouse your suspicion, I pretend to be patrolling there."
"How could this be..." Akimoto Yasushi said with a sad face.
"Of course, this is just a possibility. Our top priority now is to find him and figure out his purpose."
Tang Ze comforted him, "Ms. Matsumoto, could you please tell me about the time you met him?"
"I see..."
Akimoto Yasuyo nodded, sorted out his words and said, "I've been busy with work recently and have been working overtime this week.
Until yesterday, I basically took the last tram home every day.
Because I was walking alone late at night, I was actually very scared...
The first time I saw the criminal was on the first night I started working overtime, which was Monday night.
After getting off the last train, I was walking towards the Sanmachime Apartment where I lived when I ran into him...
He was on patrol at the time. When he saw me, he specifically reminded me that it was very dangerous for a single woman to walk home alone at night, and I must pay attention to safety.
He’s a really nice guy!”
Akimoto Yasuyo was afraid that Tang Ze would not be able to cope with this, so he quickly told everything he had seen: "A few days ago, I saw him escorting a group of elderly couples who went to the convenience store to buy things at night on a rainy day.
Last night, she was supporting a drunk middle-aged man.
He's definitely not doing anything bad!"
"The more I listen, the more I feel that he is a good person." Ayumi couldn't help but say after hearing Akimoto Yasuyo's description of the situation when he saw the fake criminal.
The other little ones also nodded in agreement with the beautiful words.
"No wonder people believe he is a real criminal." Huibara agreed.
"But it's also puzzling that he's disguised as a criminal to carry out his mission." Conan stroked his chin in thought, "I wonder what his purpose is."
"I think it's just like what Detective Tang Ze said. If someone pretends to be a criminal, there's a high probability that he wants to do something bad." said the young inspector on the side.
Upon hearing this, Yasuyo Akimoto wanted to say something, but she hesitated and ultimately did not say it.
"Ding-ling-ling~"
Just as the room fell into silence, the phone on the desk in the office suddenly rang.
The young criminal walked over and answered the phone. After a moment, he said in a surprised voice: "Ah, your house was robbed a few days ago..."
"No... I'm really sorry, we haven't caught the criminal yet."
The young inspector explained into the phone, "But based on the methods used at the scene, we suspect the culprit is the same criminal who broke into houses repeatedly this week."
"There's been a series of break-ins lately?" Yuan Tai asked after hearing the young inspector's phone call. "Do you think there's a connection?"
"We can't be sure at this point." Tang Ze shook his head and said, "Preconceived notions will affect the search."
"Besides Miss Akimoto, there should be other people who have been helped by the other party and have seen the detective." Conan said: "Let's go and ask those people."
"Well, I wonder if Miss Akimoto knows those people who were helped?" Tang Ze looked at the other party and asked.
"Let me think..."
Akimoto Yasuyo pondered for a moment and then said, "I don't know the drunk middle-aged man last night, but I've encountered that elderly couple many times at Iron Dragon."
"Iron Dragon?"
Tang Ze asked in confusion: "What is this? It sounds like the name of a store?"
"Yes, it's a ramen restaurant I went to after checking. It's delicious." Akimoto Yasuyo said as he stood up and said, "Why don't I go with you."
"That would be troublesome."
Tang Ze did not refuse the other party's request. After greeting the young inspector, he followed him to the ramen restaurant called Tielong.
"Fake criminal?"
The busy man in a blue headscarf replied coldly after hearing Tang Ze's question: "I haven't seen it."
"He seems angry." Mitsuhiko whispered to Genta as he looked at the ramen shop owner who had a stern face and a unhappy expression.
"Yeah, and he looks super angry..." Yuan Tai took the lead.
"I'm not angry!"
At this moment, the two little ones who thought they were speaking discreetly were frightened by the expressionless explanation of the busy boss.
"Don't be afraid," Akimoto Yasuyo said with a smile. "The boss may seem a little difficult to deal with, but his ramen is actually very delicious!"
As he spoke, Akimoto Yasuyo picked up a magazine on the counter, flipped to a page, handed it to the little ones, and said with a smile, "Come, look here."
Ayumi took the magazine and saw a photo of Yasuyo Akimoto eating ramen in one of the columns. The photo introduced the store called "Teiryū".
"Ah, this is it, the seasoning that makes ramen delicious."
