Chapter 714 Joining this team
"Come to think of it, I think I heard something fall into the water. It was a little quiet, but I definitely heard it." Sonoko Suzuki looked up slightly, recalling the sound she heard.
"Let the police search the Xi River outside. If the murderer really threw the murder weapon outside, then there might still be a chance to find it." Kawasaki Machi leaned against the window, crossed his arms, and looked down at the river.
Behfinger stood next to him and peered into the river to see officers searching for the murder weapon. "It seems the police had considered this possibility as well."
"Then let's just wait for the search to end... I wonder where Heiji and Conan have gone."
Kazuha Toyama sat at the table, feeling slightly helpless as she thought about this.
"Indeed, the detective's efficiency is truly astonishing." Behringer shrugged helplessly.
After the police told them they could leave, they got up and went back to Sannoji Temple. Conan and Hattori Heiji, who had gone to Sakura Seizo's antique shop to look for clues, returned shortly afterward.
They learned that Sakura Seizo was Ise Saburo, one of the members of Genji Hotaru.
Qianzhu and the other two sat beside them listening to their discussion, occasionally interjecting with their own "guesses".
It was quite late when Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha finally prepared to leave Sannoji Temple.
After escorting Conan to the gate of Sanonji Temple and watching them get into the car, Kawasaki Machi suddenly reminded Hattori Heiji with a slightly ambiguous tone, "Remember to be careful, don't get attacked."
Hattori Heiji paused for a moment upon hearing this, but instantly realized what he meant. He nodded to indicate that he understood and then drove away.
The guy who attacked him at Kurama Temple back then will definitely try to take him down again for the crystal bead.
Watching them disappear down the road, Behringer raised an eyebrow and said hesitantly, "I have a feeling something's going to happen..."
"Huh?" Conan looked up at him when he heard his voice.
“Intuition, plus a bit of guesswork.” Behringer pressed his palm against his head, frowning as he continued, “Because I’ve noticed that all sorts of things, big and small, always happen around you detectives, and injuries are quite common.”
Conan instinctively opened his mouth, only to find himself at a loss for words, because what he said seemed to be true...
However, he still coughed lightly and managed to come up with a reason, "As a detective, you definitely have to face dangerous criminals..."
Bechfinger chuckled and reached out with his bent finger to grab him. "I'm a criminal now. If you've got the guts, come and face me right now!"
Conan's eyelids twitched, and his body moved faster than his brain, taking a step forward first.
"Stop! Don't run!"
Kawasaki Machi looked up at the sky, which had only a few stars, with a blank expression.
The result of these two making such a ruckus was that they were exhausted and collapsed on the tatami mat.
Meanwhile, Qianzhu and the others were leisurely drinking tea, a stark contrast to their usual leisurely activities.
"They really have boundless energy," Sonoko Suzuki remarked with rare elegance.
Ran Mouri smiled helplessly and said to Conan and Behefinger, "It's late, don't make any more noise."
The Samoyed and Corgi, sprawled on the ground, weakly replied, "Okay..."
Not long after, they received news that Hattori Heiji was injured.
Early in the morning, they went to the hospital to visit Hattori Heiji, who was lying in bed and still unconscious.
Seeing this, Behringer secretly exchanged a glance with Conan: See, see, I told you so!
They waited for a while, and Hattori Heiji woke up. A look of confusion crossed his eyes, and after he was fully awake, he felt a pain in his head and couldn't help but gasp.
This brings us one step closer to global warming.
After the police officer left the ward, Ran Mouri also made a phone call to Kogoro Mouri.
Meanwhile, Kazuha Toyama seemed lost in thought. Seeing that Behefinger and the others were still there, he asked Heiji Hattori to look after them before turning and leaving.
Behffiner blinked, realizing that the subsequent developments required a "Kazuha being kidnapped" scenario to continue, and that nothing serious would ultimately happen to her, so she simply remained silent. Instead, she looked expectantly at Hattori Heiji and Conan, who were discussing, and asked, "Where are you planning to go next?"
"We plan to go to the Mizuo residence to inquire about Mr. Mizuo Harutaro's alibi."
Based on Behefinger's help to them and his 'convincing buff', Behefinger's level of trust among the main characters was over 80%, so the two of them didn't hide it from him and even pulled him into the discussion.
Bechfinger was delighted with this, and then quietly slipped out of the hospital with them.
Take care of Hattori Heiji ×

They took the subway to Harutaro Mizuo's residence.
Upon arriving here, they discovered that Ryuen and Saijo Taiga were also there, which meant they would have to go find them later.
Sitting upright on the cushion, Behfinger caught a glimpse of a black figure flashing past the wall outside the courtyard.
He raised an eyebrow slightly, then casually looked away.
Listening to the alibis of Mizuo Harutaro and the other two, they said that they were doing something else by themselves when Hattori Heiji was attacked last night, but because they were alone, no one could verify whether what they said was true.
So they asked a few more questions, but the answers were all pretty much the same, making it hard to rule out any one candidate or pinpoint the others.
However, if it were possible to lock in the progress bar that quickly, then the progress bar for this theatrical version wouldn't need to be so long.
Chiga Rei, who was arranged to meet Ryuen and the others, is the dancer at the teahouse where the murder occurred last night, so she can be considered one of the suspects.
Behrfinger leaned to the side and peered outside.
Unlike last night when she was a dancer and her face and neck were painted white, her makeup today looked more understated, though it seemed she had only applied some lipstick.
She looks like a pretty young lady.
Behfinger blinked, then thought for a moment.
This young lady can also sing the ball song that the little girl sang when Hattori Heiji met his first love when they were kids.
Is it possible to mistake someone for someone else?
Behringer glanced at Hattori Heiji, then at Chiga Rei.
They didn't talk much, and what they did talk about was almost entirely related to the murderer who killed Sakura Seizo.
