Chapter 1372 1380 [Kill Again]
Secretary Nishino tried to recall with difficulty: "I took a shower around seven in the evening, and then took a nap. I was dealing with the 'Egg of Memory' last night, and I was really sleepy. When I woke up, it was almost eight o'clock. I was a little hungry after waking up, so I wanted to go to the kitchen to get some dessert. But when I passed by Mr. Hanchuan's door, I suddenly saw that his door was ajar. I took a peek inside and saw..."
He didn't finish his words and shook his head, as if he didn't want to recall the bloody scene.
Inspector Megure stopped listening halfway, so he could only ask, "So you went into his room?"
"No." Secretary Nishino was puzzled. "There was a body with a blown-off head lying across the door. How could I dare to go in?"
Inspector Megure looked suspicious: "Then why is your pen in his room?"
Secretary Nishino: “…I want to know too.”
The two looked at each other in silence: "..."
Conan was originally eavesdropping intently.
After listening for a while, I found that the conversation between these two people was completely meaningless.
He simply began to think for himself: "Speaking of which, in shooting incidents, few people actually aim at the eyes. But this time the victim was shot in the right eye... I feel like I've heard of a similar feature somewhere."
Jiang Xia: “…” You can even think of this?
Seeing Conan looking over, he thought for a moment, took out his phone and pretended to search for a moment: "I have heard similar rumors - there is an international thief codenamed 'Scooping', his age and gender are unknown, he specializes in stealing the secret treasures of the Romanov dynasty. It is said that he only hits the right eye when killing people, which is one of the reasons why it is judged that the crime was committed by the same person."
"The secret treasure of the Romanov dynasty?"
Suzuki Sonoko heard it with her sharp ears, and clapped her palms, feeling that everything was right: "The 'Egg of Memory' and the photographer's ring seem to be things from the Romanov dynasty - it seems that his death was indeed caused by the Scottish soldiers!"
"..." When Pu Siqinglan heard this, the corner of her eye twitched violently: He actually dared to describe her in a tone of describing a pest. When he killed the photographer just now, he should have shot this little girl as well.
…
When a group of people think about their own things.
The forensic department personnel came running over: "Inspector, we searched the deceased's room, and there is one thing that is worrying - the deceased was a photographer, but now, all the videotapes he used are gone. In addition..."
Another man came out and carefully picked up a gem ring with his gloved hands:
"We found this under Secretary Nishino's bed - a ring attached to a necklace with some Russian letters on the inside of the ring. It's exactly the same ring that Jiang Xia just described."
Inspector Megure's eyes became sharp, and he looked at Secretary Nishino: "Why is the ring in your room?"
Secretary Nishino saw his hands trying to grab the handcuffs and was so anxious that his hair almost fell off: "I'm not the murderer!"
"I don't think so either." Jiang Xia looked at Pu Siqinglan, whose movements had become relaxed, and suddenly interrupted their conversation. "Just now, when Mr. Nishino was at the door of the deceased's room, he kept sneezing. It was only after he stepped back that the symptoms eased a lot. Yesterday in Osaka Castle Park, when pigeons approached, he also hid - there might be something in that room that he can't touch."
Secretary Nishino gradually came to his senses after hearing what he said: "Oh, I'm allergic to feathers! - There are scattered feathers everywhere in the deceased's room. It should be that the feather pillow was punctured. I can't do such a thing!"
Chairman Suzuki nodded quickly: "Indeed, I can prove that he has always been allergic to feathers, and it is not just an act to avoid punishment."
As soon as Jiang Xia opened his mouth, Suzuki Shiro also breathed a sigh of relief:
This young detective often appeared in the news with his daughter, and Suzuki Shiro would inevitably pay attention to the cases that Suzuki Sonoko encountered. Therefore, he knew very well how strong Jiang Xia's ability to solve cases was - since Jiang Xia also felt that his secretary was not the murderer, then Nishino was probably really innocent.
Suzuki Shiro: "..." It seems that there is no need to change the secretary. You know, it is not easy to find a good secretary...
Conan also felt that Inspector Megure should focus on the right direction and let innocent Secretary Nishino go. He said bluntly: "Have you heard of 'Scooping'? A thief who traveled around the world in search of the treasures of the Romanov dynasty. Now it seems that Kidd's sudden fall from the sky last night was probably caused by him."
"Inspector Shiratori" thought of his bad experience last night and shifted his gaze uncomfortably: "..." Compared to Skoubing, he always felt that the reason why he lost his grip and fell from the sky was mainly because of the sudden wing of Mist Tengu.
Kidd: “…” But if you think about it carefully, Brother Tengu just meant well and wanted to knock him out of his trajectory, but this monster underestimated the strength of his wings… Maybe Mist Tengu thought that fake wings like hang gliders were as strong as his real wings.
As he thought about it, Kidd couldn't help but imagine two Tengu fighting and hitting each other's wings. Whoever fell first would be the loser: It sounds really interesting. Using your own wings to move around is definitely more flexible than the rigid wings of a hang glider... How far has Grandpa Terai's friend's wing research and development progressed? I really want to use it sooner. If Brother Tengu is willing to show the wings to the researcher, maybe he can figure out the principle faster...
Beside him, Mist Tengu suddenly shuddered, his wings became fluffy, and he felt a sense of crisis as if he was being targeted.
It was stunned for a moment, and turned its head to look at Jiang Xia out of habit.
Jiang Xia noticed its gaze and looked back in confusion.
After looking at each other for a moment, Mist Tengu seemed to understand something. He looked away and turned to look at Kidd, feeling his wings go cold for some reason.
…
Next to him, Inspector Megure was completely unaware of the divergent thoughts of his fake colleague.
When he heard Conan's words, he actually had some impression of him: "Is it the guy who likes to shoot the victim's right eye and is wanted internationally?" As he said this, he felt that a word sounded very familiar, "Right eye, right eye... huh?! Wait, is he the criminal who committed the crime on the ship this time?!"
Inspector Megure suddenly turned his head to look at Jiang Xia, and instinctively sought confirmation from this useful and convenient reference book.
Jiang Xia nodded: "It is indeed possible. The Egg of Memory and the Ring are both secret treasures of the Romanov Dynasty. They fit his goal very well."
Pu Siqinglan didn't expect that with just a few words, the target would be set on "Shi Kaobing".
She clenched her fingers silently, her heart in turmoil: How could a first-grade kid know the information about "Scorers"?
...That bastard detective must have instructed him to say that. He is targeting her!
