Chapter 1303 1311 [Silky Detective]
"I don't want to go down this path, but I really have no choice!" Aribasaka Shigehiko punched the electric pole next to him, and he suddenly sneered:
"Since you have already guessed who the charred corpse in the moat was three weeks ago, I will also tell you the identity of the charred corpse in the moat 13 years ago.
"——He is my grandfather."
Hattori Heiji realized something: "Could it be the old man in the center of the photo?"
Abarasaka Shigehiko nodded:
"Grandpa Masaaki was a fan of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. When he was alive, he often told me about the 'Dragon Scroll' and Toyotomi Hideyoshi's treasure. But then he suddenly gave up the treasure hunt and decided to donate the scroll to the country.
"13 years ago, he persuaded his treasure-hunting companions to go to Osaka alone, and never came back. Over the years, I started with that photo and finally found the four murderers who killed him... Haha, if one of them hadn't had plastic surgery, I would have gotten rid of them long ago!"
Thinking of this, Aribasaka Shigehiko's eyes could not help but burn with anger: he had successfully deceived the police, but he could not deceive the detective. If only the bastard "Tokugawa Ieyasu" had not had plastic surgery - if he could have been recognized earlier, he could have been solved earlier. Then now, the detective in front of him who saw through everything should still be a little kid in elementary school, and he would naturally not have been caught...
But now that things have come to this, it is too late to feel sad. I can only sigh that it is fate that plays tricks on me.
Aribasaka Shigehiko looked at the students opposite him and slowed down his voice: "Life for a life, this is the price those guys should pay. Besides, the other accomplices are already dead, and only he is alive. Isn't it very unfair? Just pretend you didn't see me tonight. I will turn myself in later!"
"..." Hattori Heiji was in a complicated mood. A group of bad guys killed four people and left only one. It sounded true... No, no, how could he have such an idea!
He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and was about to refuse.
But at this time, Jiang Xia had already spoken in advance: "Since that person had plastic surgery, and changed a not-so-good-looking face into another not-so-good-looking face, it means that his plastic surgery is more likely to cover up his identity.
"I just heard that these cases of charred corpses are likely related to the serial robbery and murder cases 13 years ago. Combined with the plastic surgery of 'Tokugawa Ieyasu', he should have accomplices, and more than one. If you want to kill him, it may not be easy to succeed. Even if you really kill someone, you can't leave alive - even so, do you still want to go?"
Shigehiko Aribasaka: “…” There are accomplices, and more than one?
...Since they were a serial robbery and murder gang, they might be experts in disposing of corpses and erasing traces. Perhaps the people who killed Grandpa were not only those treasure-hunting companions, but also those men of "Tokugawa Ieyasu"!
Killing one person is killing, killing a group of people is also killing.
Thinking of this, Aribasaka Shigehiko's eyes seemed to be burning with anger, and he quickly calculated in his mind: He had more than one explosive flashlight, and he also brought some other explosives. If he put them together, maybe he could find an opportunity...
A hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.
"Even if you want to go, we can't let you go." Jiang Xia said sadly, "One person can't fight against a group of people. Those people will naturally be dealt with by the police."
"Let go!" Aribasaka Shigehiko came to his senses and pushed him hard, intending to take advantage of Jiang Xia's unstable footing and rush out through the gap.
However, although he pushed the ball, he was unable to get the space he wanted.
Jiang Xia not only didn't get pushed aside, but quickly grabbed his shoulder, pulled the man who wanted to run back, pushed him aside, and asked casually, "By the way, where is the place where you agreed to meet?"
Shigehiko Abarasaka rubbed his face against the wall and got a splash of water. He tried to raise his head but the back of his head was pressed down and he couldn't lift it up. Only his mouth remained stubborn: "I won't tell you!"
Jiang Xia discussed with him in a friendly manner: "Don't get me wrong, we are not your enemies. Anyway, you can't leave now. If you don't say anything, what if 'Tokugawa Ieyasu' can't wait for you and becomes suspicious and runs away? - You have to know that they are professionals. They hid for 13 years before you found them. They are very vigilant.
"If they take the opportunity to disappear this time and hide for another 13 years, you will be stuck in prison and the police will have a hard time finding them. Is this what you want? On the contrary, tell me their location now, we will immediately bring people to block them, and the police will arrive later, making it difficult for them to escape."
Shigehiko Aribasaka: “…” That seems to make sense?
...No, the police have been trying to catch that group of people for 13 years but have not been able to catch them. Can they catch them tonight? He must avenge himself. He cannot trust others.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Aribasaka Shigehiko's mind. He gritted his teeth and reached into his pocket - he hadn't lost yet, he still had something he could use to threaten!
He grabbed for the exploding flashlight.
Then I touched nothing.
"Are you looking for this?"
Jiang Xia had pulled the flashlight out of his pocket at some point and was now holding it in his hand, looking at it curiously.
After the observation, in order to make it easier to hold an umbrella, he threw the flashlight to his companion next to him.
"!" Hattori Heiji caught it in a panic and held it carefully, "Don't throw it around! This is a bomb!"
Matsuda Jinpei was floating nearby. Seeing this, he shook his head and said, "The bomb inside won't be detonated by vibrations. It will only explode if you push the switch. Young people nowadays are really impatient."
And even if the switch was really turned on, he could use his skills to delay the explosion of the bomb by 3 seconds. This period of time was enough for the psychic master to throw the flashlight to a deserted place, so that it would not explode on him and his precious detective classmate.
Shigehiko Aribasaka didn't know that there was a group of ghosts staring at him attentively.
But even if it was just the people around him, it was enough to make him realize his current situation - it was indeed as Jiang Xia said, it was almost impossible to break through these two young and strong high school students and go kill people.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth. Although he was very unwilling, he still didn't want to let the demons go. He whispered, "...In the abandoned building over there on Narimachi Bridge."
After saying that, Aribasaka Shigehiko thought about it for a while but still felt uneasy, so he said, "I want to go with you..."
"Boom!"
Jiang Xia chopped over with a knife.
Aribasaka Shigehiko choked back the rest of his words, fell to his knees, and then lay completely flat, without any movement.
Jiang Xia withdrew his hand and turned to look at Hattori Heiji.
"!" Hattori Heiji had not yet recovered from his series of operations. He was secretly thinking that the detective who had worked in the agency was indeed different and handled things so smoothly, when he saw Jiang Xia suddenly looking at him.
He immediately became alert: "What's wrong?"
