Chapter 1151 1159 [How to herd sheep on top of your head]
Mrs. Morokaku half-knelt down, like a caring housewife, and helped Soga Fusaku up:
"Okay, stop squatting in front of the cabinet. My husband will be home soon.
"The reason you came to my house today was to have a drink with him, right? If that's the case, then act like you're having a drink with friends and don't look so gloomy. After all, you're college classmates and you know each other a little bit. If you act too abnormal, my husband will notice it, and you don't want others to know about this, right?"
“…”
Soga Misao stood up silently, and the two of them left with different feelings.
…
After they went out of the house.
The three detectives also slipped out of the yard silently and returned to the hidden alley where they had been stalking.
"…The adult world is so complicated."
Conan and Hattori Heiji sighed, feeling awkward when they thought of the huge amount of information they had just overheard.
"Among the commissions that detectives receive, quite a few are to find evidence of the client's partner's infidelity." Jiang Xia looked back at the rather pretty single-family house. "Some are routine inspections because they have nothing better to do. Most are to get evidence, get a bigger share of the property, or to offset their own infidelity."
Jiang Xia actually likes this kind of commission very much, it's like a lottery. But most of the time, he will only go once: look at the client, and then look at the client's surveillance object from a distance.
If neither of them shows any murderous intent, leave the tracking task to those bad guys.
"..." Speaking of which, Jiang Xia secretly thought that after mastering the essence of the two detective skills of "catching cats" and "investigating infidelity", the younger brothers would be able to find a job in a detective agency... I'll ask them if they are willing to go one day. Perhaps in this way, Tokyo will once again produce a large number of detectives and develop sustainably.
…
Just as they were thinking, Conan suddenly discovered something and whispered to them, "Why did the antique shop manager suddenly come back?"
Jiang Xia put away his thoughts and looked in the direction he pointed. He saw that this time, Genda Ryuichi did not go to Mrs. Morokaku's house to get scolded. Instead, he walked out of another house and left quickly.
Before I could take a closer look, another middle-aged man approached.
This time it was a stranger who came. But he was only a stranger to the detectives - he walked straight into the Morokaku's house, with a briefcase under his arm, looking calm and at ease. This natural way of coming home made him look like Mrs. Morokaku's husband.
"..." Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at the man with a subtle hint of sympathy in their eyes.
…
"I'm back." Mr. Zhujiao walked through the courtyard gate and entered the door of the house.
When I opened the door to the entrance, I saw Mrs. Morokaku and Mr. Soga walking out of the living room together.
Soga Matsufu looked a little absent-minded. He nodded and said hello to his old classmates who had just returned home.
Mr. Morokaku didn't care that there was suddenly a man in the house. After all, Soga Mitsuo had a good relationship with them and often came over. Moreover, today, the two of them had made an appointment to go for a drink together.
"I'm going to the bathroom first." Morokaku Akira said, looking at Soga Sofu, "I saw your car at the door - since you drove here, I won't go to the garage, I'll take your car later."
Mrs. Morokaku took the briefcase from him, and both her actions and words were like a caring housewife: "You guys are going to drink, so don't drink and drive. Anyway, the izakaya is not very far from here, so just walk over and think of it as exercise."
"Haha, okay then." Zhu Jiaoming thought of something and said, "Aren't you bored at home? Come with us."
"No, I don't like drinking." Mrs. Zhujiao declined.
No matter how considerate she seemed, she didn't want to miss her favorite TV show just to listen in on the conversation between these two stupid men: "There's a late-night broadcast of a football game tonight. I'm going to catch up on some sleep now so I can have the energy to watch it tonight."
"Okay then." Zhu Jiaoming also knew her temper and did not force her to persuade her.
…
Not long after, the two men walked out of the house, talking and laughing, and left.
“…Finally left.”
Hattori Heiji looked at their backs, especially that of Soga Mitsuo, and breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked up at the sky. The three detectives had arrived at two in the afternoon and had been waiting until dark. "I'm so hungry. Let's go have dinner first, and then discuss what to do."
…
The area is full of residential areas, and the nearest restaurant is on the street.
The three of them walked towards that direction hungry. On the way, Hattori Heiji remembered something and turned to look at Jiang Xia:
"There is no clear pattern in the time when an arsonist commits a crime. It may take ten days or half a month, or it may happen in the next moment. We can't just wait like this forever... You must have encountered similar cases in your detective agency. How do professional detectives usually solve such problems?"
Jiang Xia: “…” Of course, throw it to my younger brother, or steal electricity nearby and install a camera.
However, it is difficult to say these things directly, so he slightly modified it: "Teamwork, let people who are good at this field come to help, or use technology."
Hattori Heiji and Conan understood: "Should we find someone to help keep an eye on us, or install a camera? This will indeed save a lot of effort."
Jiang Xia: “…”…Tsk, he is indeed an excellent detective, he translates so quickly.
The two genius detectives not only understood Jiang Xia's meaning in seconds, but also accepted it well.
Conan looked down at the button on his body, twisted it and sighed: "Dr. Agasa only gave me eavesdropping equipment, no portable video recording... When I go back, I will ask him when I can upgrade the equipment."
…
Once you leave the residential area, you'll see a few restaurants scattered around the street.
I took a quick look at every restaurant in Jiangxia, and was disappointed to find that there was no extra murderous aura here, and the food was the same in any restaurant.
So the three of them randomly chose a store and sat down.
…
Not long after the dishes were served, there was a faint sound of chaos on the street.
The three looked up at the sound and saw several fire trucks approaching with their lights flashing. They quickly passed by their street and headed towards the residential area.
“?!”
The word "fire truck" is undoubtedly closely associated with "arson".
Hattori Heiji and Conan became alert instantly and stood up abruptly: "Could something have happened in 4th chome?"
The three of them looked at each other and quickly rushed out of the restaurant.
Jiang Xia remembered something, and in order to avoid being caught by the store manager, he turned back when he just left the store, put down the cash, and then caught up with the two people who had just run away.
…
Running back along the same route, the detective was surprised to find that the fire happened at the Morokaku family.
