Chapter 20
Chapter 20
The store was in chaos. The few customers who heard the news subconsciously wanted to run out, but were stopped by the reliable adult male Zhu Fujingguang.
Theoretically, he was able to work on his own, but since he had not graduated and had no ID, Morobushi Kagemitsu could not openly say that he was a policeman. However, he looked very reliable and was able to control the situation temporarily, and at the same time called Yayoi to call the police.
Hearing the familiar name, Kudo Shinichi, who was originally observing the shop assistant, turned around and looked at Yayoi who was looking at him.
"It was that day..."
Yayoi took off his mask when talking to Morobushi Kagemitsu, which is also one of his personal habits. If you want others to have a good impression of you, you have to show your sincerity, so when talking to others, he will definitely look into the other person's eyes.
Although I don't know why people often avoid his sight.
Yashiro nodded politely to him and continued to communicate with the police on the other end of the phone, explaining the address and the general situation. The next step would probably be to wait for the case to be solved.
Kudo Shinichi looked down at his phone, which was why he was scolded by Xiaolan. After meeting Yayoi at the aquarium last time, he was nostalgic again because the comics were on hiatus for a long time, so he read the comics again from the beginning.
As expected, it is always great to watch no matter how many times you watch it. Even though you already know how Yashiro will handle those things, it is still amazing to see him come up with such a solution.
The person on the phone was Nishitaka Yayoi, who was also on the phone.
The comic used a relatively small grid to depict this scene, giving the action of the finger unconsciously touching the pigtail, and the look of turning the head and smiling, which instantly overlapped with the real person.
"You must be lying."
Zhu Fu Jingguang comforted the other customers and talked to the crying waitress. When Yashiro called the police, he asked, "How is it?"
"The police said they'll be here soon." Yayoi stood in the middle, blocking Kudo Shinichi's sight and preventing him from becoming interested in Jingguang.
When the salesgirl heard the word "police," she shuddered.
The number of people with meaningful looks has become three.
Kudo Shinichi also showed the demeanor of a high school detective. He ran over and asked the shop assistant many questions by taking advantage of his identity as a child.
His father is a world-renowned mystery novelist, and he is deeply influenced by Sherlock Holmes.
Hibiki, Kudo Shinichi's dream since childhood was to become a detective, and he has accumulated a lot of experience for this.
He is still an elementary school student, and although he is still a little immature, he is simply too cute in Yashiro's eyes.
Nishitaka Yayoi is a otaku with a wide range of interests. He has seen almost all kinds of products that can be found or not found on the market, whether they are general or otome-oriented. He is not picky at all.
Especially since he is a universal person, there is no one he can dislike in real life, and it is even more impossible in the two-dimensional world. He can maintain a very kind and friendly impression towards almost all characters.
However, there is a difference between liking and being liked. For example, Kudo Shinichi has always been at the top of his list of likes. Every time he sees Conan's plot about Valentine's Day, he feels strangely relieved.
The shop assistant was already a little overwhelmed by Kudo Shinichi's questions, and hurriedly said "I'm going to wash my face" and left, leaving Shinichi, who was not allowed to enter the women's restroom, parked outside.
Yayoi extended her hand to the young detective who had not yet grown up, and said with a smile in her eyes: "Shinichi, come here."
Kudo Shinichi took a deep breath. He knew rationally that he should ask the other party what he wanted to do and be wary of strangers...
But this person isn't a stranger, right? It's not the first time we've met...
As if by some strange coincidence, Kudo Shinichi put his hand in Yayo's hand, and then the boy who looked very much like his favorite comic character took him directly to the crime scene at the back, and no one stopped them.
"Let's finish this quickly before the police arrive." Yashi didn't think there was anything wrong with bringing a child to see the corpse. She squatted carefully beside the corpse and paused for a few seconds.
"How pitiful." He heard the young man whisper, his tone full of regret.
The deceased was a young woman in her thirties. Probably because she worked in a dessert shop, she dressed relatively young. Her clothes were all light pink and white. She looked to be in her early twenties at most.
"First, we need to determine whether it was suicide, homicide, or an accident." Yashiro said, taking out a pair of disposable gloves from his pocket and putting them on, then began the most basic autopsy.
Kudo Shinichi took half a second to react and suddenly realized that the person in front of him seemed to be teaching him.
The tone of voice, micro-expressions and small movements, all of them...
Perhaps because the other person looked a lot like Nishitaka Yayoi, Kudo Shinichi didn’t think anything was wrong and squatted next to him and got into the state: “It doesn’t look like suicide.
”
"Well, if it was suicide by hanging, there wouldn't be such obvious bleeding at the groove of the neck, and the marks wouldn't be so even." Nishitaka Yayoi pointed to Kudo Shinichi, "Since it's so obvious, we can rule out the possibility of accidental death."
"It's murder." Zhu Fujingguang walked in and saw Yayoi and Shinichi and two minors performing an autopsy seriously. He couldn't even say anything to blame. Logically, he should have asked them to leave the scene and protect them until the police arrived.
Moreover, their analysis was surprisingly accurate. He could see that Yashiro was smart, and the little kid next to him was not a naughty kid who was just playing around. He was also analyzing seriously.
"When it comes to murder, we have to start by selecting the murderer. There are generally only two possibilities for the murderer. One is that he is not compatible with the deceased, and the other is that he is a psychopath who kills indiscriminately." Nishitaka Yayoi turned around and gave a flattering smile to Morifushi Kagemitsu, but still did not finish his behavior. "This kind of analysis is too troublesome, so usually, we start by considering the motive for the crime."
He had heard of these theories. While remembering them in his mind, Kudo Shin also devoted some time to thinking. However, this was his first time to face a case alone, so he was inevitably inexperienced. He could not understand the reasoning knowledge that he had memorized very well.
Under Yashiro's deliberate guidance, he quickly found the clue. When he was thinking about the murderer, sirens were heard from outside and the police finally arrived.
The murderer was the shop assistant. Her ex-boyfriend abandoned her to pursue the rich store manager. After the store manager invited her to his wedding, she finally couldn't bear it and killed the store manager. She killed in the heat of the moment and didn't think about how to hide the evidence of the crime. She was eventually taken away by the police.
The rest of the people could go back after registering their names with the police. After this incident, no one was in the mood to continue sightseeing and most of them chose to go home.
However, Yayo was stopped by Kudo Shinichi. The Shinichi in front of her was much younger than the high school students Yayo was familiar with, and older than Edogawa Conan. This feeling was very novel.
"Thank you for today, brother." Kudo Shinichi looked up at him and said, "I learned a lot."
"Sorry for showing off your skills in front of an expert. Criminal investigation is not my specialty." Yayoi responded politely. If the person in front of him was a smaller Conan or a grown-up Shinichi, the little he had learned through his intelligence would not be enough.
"Can we still keep in touch in the future?" asked Kudo Shinichi.
I had seen it once before at the aquarium, but he was too embarrassed to observe it carefully.
When I looked closer, it looked even more like it.
Be it appearance, personality, or even small movements that some comics don't depict in great detail, they are all so similar.
Kudo Shinichi inevitably developed a liking for him.
Of course Yashiro would not refuse. He left in a hurry last time, and he was a little confused, so it was a pity that he did not say a few more words to young Shinichi.
After seeing off Kudo Shinichi, Nishitaka Yayoi heard the sound of Morobushi Kagemitsu clearing his throat.
After a moment's silence, he turned around and promised Morobushi Keimitsu that he would never run around the crime scene again. He was not the kind of person who liked to join in such fun, but today when he saw the young Kudo Shinichi, he couldn't help himself.
"I'm not controlling you. It's okay if it's just me. If there were others, they would scold you." Zhu Fu Jingguang said neither lightly nor seriously. Seeing Ya Shi admitting his mistake with a very good attitude and lowering his head, he couldn't help but rub his head. "If you are interested in the case, you can be a detective in the future. Maybe we can be partners."
Zhu Fu Jingguang continued the conversation, but he didn't expect that Yashiro's attitude was very serious.
"If we can be partners, I can give it a try." Yayoi said. He raised his eyes and looked at Morifushi Keimitsu. There were very complicated emotions in his green eyes, just like the slightly sad expression when Morifushi Keimitsu told him that a senior official from the Metropolitan Police Department wanted to see him.
Zhu Fu Jingguang didn't know where his emotions came from, and he instinctively felt that it was better not to ask, so he could only soften his attitude and said with a smile: "Then it's a deal, we'll be partners from now on."!
