Then, under Inspector Megure's watchful gaze, Takagi led the group out of the lounge.
The media remained outside, and immediately perked up when they saw someone come out of the lounge.
The leader was Takagi, who had just been reprimanded and had a worried look on his face. Compared to him, the expressions on the faces of the four suspects were much calmer.
These media outlets were unaware of the truth. When they saw the leader with a worried expression, they were like cats smelling fish, their eyes seemingly shining.
A headline flashed through their minds: "Top Wrestler Found Dead in Locker Room, Police Look Grim – Another Cold Case?"
It has to be said that these media outlets are really good at making things up.
So much can be interpreted from a simple expression.
Photographers raised their cameras to capture the expression on Takagi's face.
Fortunately, the police had set up a cordon and stationed several people at the intersection; otherwise, these media outlets would probably have crowded into the lounge entrance to take pictures.
Everyone says to respect the dead, but these media outlets don't care about that; what matters is getting firsthand photos of the scene.
Watching Niu Jinyan's departing figure, Guangyou's thoughts were in turmoil.
Of the four, Niu Jinyan is the only suspect.
That foreigner with the same first name as Leonardo DiCaprio but a different last name is easier to deal with.
This person had originally considered retiring, and his return to the ring was probably due to his love for wrestling, so there shouldn't be any conflict with Nagase Hyota.
As for the great god Jingqing... Guangyou didn't have a deep relationship with him, they only exchanged a few words.
However, judging from his previous remarks, he doesn't seem to be the kind of person who is very jealous.
The impression that the great god Jingqing left on Guangyou is that he is approachable, down-to-earth, and has a good sense of humor.
Kousuke has no way of knowing the extent of his private relationship with Nagase Hyota, but there probably wasn't any conflict between them.
Compared to Sako Hiroyuki, Niu Jinyan is actually more suspicious.
The first few sentences of the former sounded like normal human speech, but the latter sentences just didn't sound right to Guangyou.
In fact, solving cases based on impressions of people is a big no-no, because you never know if those seemingly upright gentlemen are hiding a heart as devilish as a devil.
However, this method can be helpful if you are good at judging people. But you should use it sparingly, because it would be terrible if you misjudged someone one day.
Guangyou is not sure whether Niu Jinyan had any motives; perhaps he was overinterpreting things just now.
But he has the time and the means, and given the current situation, he and Sako Hiroyuki are the most likely suspects.
Just as he was thinking, he heard Ai say softly, "Do you think it's possible that he couldn't see the road clearly, which is why he was looking around?"
“How could that be? He’s not blind…” Guangyou had just said this when suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips. “So that’s how it is. No wonder he was looking around.”
Seeing Kōyū smile, Ai's lips also curled up slightly.
She wasn't really interested in either wrestling or this case.
She only came to watch the game because Guangyou invited her.
Solving the case... well, it's not really solving the case, it's just giving me a clue.
She did all this simply to help Guangyou.
"Ai, you're so smart!"
The sudden voice beside her brought Ai back to her senses. She glanced at Kyou, who was smiling, then stopped smiling and said softly, "It sounds like you're praising a child."
"Hehe..." Guangyou chuckled twice, but did not reply.
Suddenly, Ai reached out her hand and said to Kousuke, "Shouldn't you give a child a piece of candy when you praise them?"
Guangyou knew the girl was joking, so he played along and said, "What if you didn't bring it?"
"Then don't forget next time." Ai withdrew her hand, her expression calm, but a hint of a smile was hidden in her eyes. "Business comes first."
Although she didn't know why he suddenly became so interested in solving the case, Ai knew that all she needed to do was support him.
"Okay." Kōyū gave Ai a deep look, then turned around to discuss the case with Conan.
Walking up to Conan, Kousuke leaned closer and lowered his voice: "I might know who the murderer is."
Upon hearing this, Conan turned his head and asked seriously, "Really?"
Guangyou added, "It's pretty close."
"Who is it?" Conan only knew that the culprit was among the four people from before, but he still couldn't figure out who it was.
“I suspect it’s Niu Jinyan.” Guangyou paused slightly before continuing, “If we remove the suspicion, it should be him.”
"Why?" Conan couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
Speaking of evidence, Guangyou was also helpless. According to that method, there was only one piece of valid evidence, but he dared not be sure whether that evidence was on Niu Jinyan.
"Currently, I know of two pieces of evidence, but there is only one valid piece of evidence, which I do not yet have."
Guangyou changed the subject, "But we can try to trick him."
Hearing this, Conan also felt that things were a bit difficult. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Mitsuyu and asked, "What are the chances of success?"
“Let me calculate…” Guangyou thought for a moment, held up his hand and made a five-point gesture, and said seriously, “Fifty, either it will succeed or it will not, so the success rate is fifty.”
Conan remained silent.
Isn't that obvious?
Just as Conan was about to complain, he realized there seemed to be nothing to complain about.
