Chapter 794 It got accidentally broken into pieces
Percy's voice came from inside, "The door is unlocked, please come in."
The staff member pushed open the door and entered, followed by... a group of people.
Percy looked slightly surprised, but quickly composed himself.
The guest rooms on the fifth floor are usually reserved for important guests, so the rooms are quite spacious, and even with a group of them all in, it didn't feel crowded.
"What happened?"
Percy clasped his hands together in front of him and did not call out to Kita Ayane directly, but asked them first.
“Mr. Naoto Hiraguchi, who lived in room 521, was brutally murdered. We heard from this young man that Mr. Kita Aya met with Mr. Hiraguchi at 6:30, so we came to ask him a few questions,” Officer Takagi explained.
Percy nodded without changing his expression. "I understand. Please wait in the living room for a moment."
About two or three minutes later, Percy helped Kita Ayane out of the bedroom.
Kita Ayane yawned, as if he had been woken up from a dream, and therefore seemed to be in a bad mood.
Is there a problem?
He sat down on the sofa and spoke immediately, his clear voice tinged with a hint of hoarseness.
Officer Takagi coughed lightly and began questioning.
"Would you mind sharing what you and Mr. Hiraguchi discussed?"
Perhaps it was because the young man opposite him had a somewhat domineering aura that he unconsciously used honorifics.
"It's just some discussions about cooperation."
Kita Ayane answered calmly and accepted the calming tea that Percy offered.
Officer Takagi: "So, may I ask how long you two have been talking?"
Kita Ayane took a sip of tea but did not answer.
“To be precise, it was 13 minutes,” Percy said. “The young master’s meeting with Mr. Hiraguchi was from 6:23 to 6:36.”
"..." Officer Takagi paused for a moment before continuing his questioning.
Apart from the first question, which was answered by Kita Ayane herself, all the other questions were answered by Percy.
This also indirectly shows that they almost always stayed together.
Kita Ayane wouldn't make a move, and neither would Percy.
Their suspicions were almost immediately ruled out.
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Kita Aya." Officer Takagi nodded in gratitude.
After leaving the room, Officer Takagi inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Inspector Megure, awaiting his next instruction.
Inspector Megure pondered for a moment, then, after hearing Kogoro Mouri muttering to himself, remained silent for a split second before giving the order.
"After the investigation, bring all the suspects here."
"Yes, officer."
Takagi Wataru saluted and then went back to work.
Conan, of course, went to the crime scene to investigate.
Ran Mouri turned her head and then turned back, only to find that Conan was gone again.
"......."
"Never mind him, that little guy always does this, doesn't he? I'm getting a bit hungry from walking around like this, let's go back to the banquet hall and get something to eat."
Kuno Naya took her arm and smiled, diverting her attention.
“Actually, I’m a little hungry too, so let’s go over there~” Sonoko Suzuki chimed in, her stomach rumbling at the opportune moment.
Sure enough, Ran Mouri is someone whose attention is easily diverted.
Listening to what her two best friends were saying, she nodded and walked downstairs to the banquet hall, completely putting Conan out of her mind.
—As long as I'm eating, drinking, and having fun with my best friends, I won't think about any worries related to men.
Kuno Naya smiled and picked up a cute and chewy dessert for each of them.
Qianzhu naturally didn't come down with them. Instead, after watching the people gathered in front of 511 leave, she turned around and went to another place.
He went up to the sixth-floor deck, where there was no one else but him.
Under the cover of darkness, the boundless ocean seemed to transform into a colossal beast capable of easily devouring any creature, with the sound of its surging waves echoing through the night.
The wind that blew by wasn't strong, but it wasn't gentle either, and it had a salty smell.
Her black hair swayed slightly in the wind, and the hem of her clothes rustled softly.
There was no moon or stars tonight; the darkness merged with the sea.
Qianzhu gazed gently into the distance.
In an instant, his amber eyes turned gold.
His suit had somehow transformed into a white cloak with gold patterns.
He raised his hand, holding a semi-transparent sphere with wisps of golden light swirling around the golden mist at its center.
He tossed the ball up and down, then easily crushed it as he caught it in his palm.
Golden light emanated from his fingertips.
The pitch-black sky seemed to brighten for a fleeting moment.
In the bedroom of room 521, there was only a small corgi crawling around on the floor, searching for clues and evidence.
He heard a slight noise from the window, and when he looked up, he saw a white figure sitting on the windowsill.
Conan's pupils contract slightly.
'gentlemen'! ?
He confirmed it with Phantom Thief Kid.
The 'sir's' cloak was different from that of the other members of the church, and the obvious difference made him recognize him at a glance.
"Did you do this?" Conan asked in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on the other person.
"What?" The man's lazy voice came, revealing a casual indifference. "Of course I didn't do it, but... I did tamper with it a little. Are you curious?"
What did you do?
Conan pressed for an answer.
"Hmm...did it make him even more determined to seek revenge?"
The man crossed his legs, rested one elbow on his knee, and supported his chin with his half-fist.
The open window let in the sea breeze, causing his cloak to billow and sway, but the hood covering his face remained perfectly still.
"Why did you do this? Do you have a grudge against Mr. Hiraguchi?" Conan frowned. If he didn't know that the other party would not tell him directly who the murderer was, he would have asked directly.
The man was silent for a moment, then chuckled softly, his tone enigmatic, "Truly worthy of being a detective, you have a lot of questions."
"As for why I did this? It's because he was so rude, and I wanted to get justice for my dear Xiao Mo."
"I just didn't expect that guy's desire for revenge to be so strong; he accidentally tore the victim to pieces..."
His words seemed regretful, but his tone was full of schadenfreude.
Finally, he added with great interest, "If he manages to escape from those useless neon police, perhaps my church would be a suitable next permanent refuge for him. What do you think, young detective?"
