Chapter 262 One Person, One Account: Takagi is Baffled



Guangyou wasn't in a hurry, but he was quite interested in doing this kind of thing.

If Vermouth's character, Tomoaki Araide, hadn't helped out nearby, Miwako and Shiratori would probably have already kissed.

They got engaged after kissing, married soon after the engagement, and then... hehehe.

Takagi is completely finished, and after learning the truth, she will definitely become withdrawn.

They might never recover.

Moreover, although Shiratori seems to be pursuing Miwako, as the only person in this world with an unfair advantage, Shiratori's ultimate destiny is not Miwako.

It was just a beautiful misunderstanding.

Therefore, if Shiratori and Miwako get together, it will be bad for both of them when the truth comes out in the future.

"Hehe, because of this, Miwako doesn't let anyone else in the Metropolitan Police Department know. It would be bad if it caused a riot. Last time Miwako went missing, basically all the single police officers in Tokyo or the old police officers who treated Miwako like a daughter went berserk."

"It's alright. If the other person is also interested in dating, then Miwako will ask someone else to help her get out of the matchmaking event."

Yumi showed no concern whatsoever about the outcome that the others were hoping for.

Conan asked in confusion, "But who would help Officer Sato escape from the matchmaking event?"

Yumi's face was practically overflowing with gossip: "Conan, I didn't expect you to be so good at solving cases yet so clumsy. Of course, it's Officer Takagi, hehehe."

"If I just send the information about the murder that happened at the Water Tower where Miwako was on a blind date to Takagi, he'll definitely be panicked and rush over to save Miwako. Who knows, maybe the two of them will suddenly confess their love to each other then."

Guangyou's lips twitched; Yumi's thoughts were just like those of a member of a demonic cult.

If Takagi knew, he'd definitely start overthinking things again.

For example, Miwako rejected her arranged marriage partner and was subsequently killed by him.

Or perhaps Miwako rejected him, and he became enraged and did *that* to her.

Or perhaps Miwako was only... you know, and then she huddled in a corner, clutching the only piece of clothing she had, screaming for help.

Anyway, given Takagi's imagination, this is the only outcome he could come up with.

"Xiao Lan, since we've already booked lunch at Shui Du Lou, let's go check it out while we're at it."

Sonoko also had a gossipy smile on her face, tilting her head to ask Ran for advice.

"I'm fine with it, I'm going to get there anyway."

Just as the group was about to set off, they heard a car horn honking from behind.

Turning around, Ran and Sonoko exclaimed in surprise, "A new doctor?"

Shinichiro leaned out of the car and asked, "What are you all doing here?"

Yuanzi raised an eyebrow. She was just about to leave when someone she knew showed up, and he even had a car. How convenient!

After explaining to Shinichiro, Sonoko asked him to take the group to the Water Tower.

"Sure, I'm free anyway, get in the car."

Shinichiro readily agreed to their requests.

"You guys go ahead, Ran-neechan. I need to find Ai-chan."

Guangyou did not plan to go to Shuidulou.

He plans to help Takagi here.

So he made up a random excuse to get away.

Xiaolan didn't ask any more questions and nodded: "Then be careful on the road."

After watching Xiaolan and the others leave from where he stood, Guangyou turned and left.

Although I don't know where Takagi is, it won't be difficult to find him.

You'll definitely find Takagi if you just head towards areas with lots of people and where something has happened.

After walking along the road for nearly ten minutes, Guangyou saw a large crowd gathered in front of a store, with many people whispering among themselves.

Clearly, something has gone wrong.

Yumi also mentioned that Takagi was actually patrolling in the vicinity.

"Excuse me, what happened here?"

To confirm, Guangyou deliberately walked through the crowd and pulled aside a young woman in a school uniform to ask her about the situation.

"The shop next door has been robbed, and two police officers are chasing after it now."

There are too many people gathered around the store to watch the commotion, and if Guangyou goes after them on his own, it might backfire.

He planned to wait and see.

After waiting for about five minutes, Takagi came over with two men and a woman.

Passersby weren't that idle either. Five minutes had passed without any movement, and they had no interest in standing around the store to observe what was different about the robbed store.

Apart from a few people who were genuinely bored and still chatting, most people who were supposed to leave had already left.

There were two people on patrol; the one with Takagi was Officer Chiba.

Chiba led the two men and one woman into the car, and Takagi called out as they walked, "Did anyone see what the robbers who robbed this convenience store looked like?"

Just now, Guangyou, who was pulling the young lady who was asking about the situation, suddenly stepped forward and said to Takagi, "Officer, I saw the height of the criminal just now. Was he the one wearing a helmet and a jacket?"

"I saw him through the glass when I was buying clothes next door. He was walking in the crowd and was a head taller than the others. I think he was about 1.8 meters tall."

The high school girl recalled for a moment, then said to Takagi with certainty, "Yes, I saw those things at the time, but because of the crowd, I didn't see too many."

"That was very helpful, thank you."

It's a little, but it's better than nothing.

After quickly jotting down the message, Takagi seemed to be pondering something.

"Oh, by the way, I caught a glimpse of his coat when I opened it slightly; he was wearing green clothes," the young woman added.

Takagi's thoughts were immediately disrupted, and his previous ideas were overturned. Looking at the young lady, he asked, "Green?"

"Yes, it's definitely green."

After writing these things down in the police handbook, a middle-aged man called out to Takagi.

"Officer, the owner of that coffee shop has been bragging that he saw the robbers."

Guangyou, listening from a distance, silently stared in the direction of the coffee shop.

"Hey, what's so great about that?"

Seeing Takagi walking towards the coffee shop, Kōyū quickly followed.

"Officer Takagi, something's happened again?"

"yes."

When Takagi heard someone ask him, he subconsciously responded, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Kuangyou? What are you doing here?"

"Please ignore these details; the case is the priority."

"That's true."

I followed Takagi into the coffee shop, where the owner was wiping cups at the bar.

"Excuse me, did you see the robber?"

"Yes," the shop owner put down his cup, crossed his arms, and said, "I saw it very clearly; it passed by me just now."

"Any distinguishing features?"

"I don't know if he was a man or a woman, but I remember he was about 1.7 meters tall and he was wearing a black shirt under his coat."

This testimony left Takagi completely stunned.

What the heck is going on?

Why does everyone have a different version of events?

Investigating a case?

Take a hammer and go investigate the case!

I'm so angry!
