Chapter 1509-1517 [Catching the younger brother’s flaws]
"Oh?" Inspector Yasa's eyes lit up when he heard the good news, and he was certain in his heart.
He hid in the building stealthily and ran away when he saw the police. This guy has a big problem, even bigger than the "brutal Asian man" who had no further information in the afternoon. He must be the murderer who shot the deceased.
——As he expected, the murderer was hiding in this building!
As long as you catch the person through searching first, there is no use of having a detective.
From the moment he got on the plane to now, Inspector Yasa finally felt refreshed for once: "Send some equipment over, and make sure to catch the man! We can't let this dangerous person escape and threaten the safety of the citizens."
As he spoke, he pressed his police hat and hurried downstairs, his eager steps strangely carrying a hint of ease.
Conan looked at the police officer who left like a gust of wind, and was stunned for a moment: "..." Wait, the clues have not been collected yet, and he has not started reasoning, but the police have found the murderer... Is this the end?
Just as he was thinking about it, another gust of wind blew past him - Jiang Xia had already walked past him and out the door, following Inspector Yasa. It was obvious that he was also very interested in the criminal who did not run away.
Conan came to his senses and hurriedly followed: Thinking positively... is not right, thinking negatively... is not right either. Think carefully, what if Inspector Asa made a mistake in identifying the wrong person? Don't give up on reasoning, think carefully.
…
The elevator was soon called up, and Inspector Yassa walked in with great vigor.
And just as he walked into the elevator, a figure followed him in and stood next to him naturally.
Turning around, I saw that it was indeed the young detective.
“…”
The middle-aged police officer glanced at Jiang Xia with a slight twitch in the corner of his eye, remembering the failed phone call he made to Ms. Lotta to complain at noon, and in the end he didn't kick the person out.
He just looked at the subordinates who entered the elevator later than Jiang Xia, and said unhappily: "Hurry up! If you keep dithering, what if someone runs away?"
After hearing this, Jiang Xia briefly communicated with the Mist Tengu placed on the "suspicious person" and felt that there was no big problem.
…
In the corner room on the third floor.
Okiya Subaru's eyelids were twitching wildly. He listened to the footsteps coming and going in the corridor outside and felt so anxious that he wanted to pull his hair out.
Okiya Subaru: “…” How did things suddenly turn out like this!
Just now, Okiya Subaru observed secretly and found that Jiang Xia and the others had no intention of leaving for the time being, and would check every member of the crew sooner or later.
So while this hardworking detective finally went to eat and rest, Subaru Okiya planned to take the opportunity to pack his luggage and make some preparations for his midnight escape.
Who would have thought that something would happen here while we were cleaning up?
By the time Okiya Subaru carefully figured out the situation and wanted to run, it was already too late - the building was surrounded by the crew from all sides, and every window was being watched by countless pairs of eyes, so he would be seen no matter where he walked.
The crew had been with him for a while, and if he forced his way out, it was hard to say whether he could escape, but he would definitely be recognized - and Subaru Okiya really didn't want to go through the wanted period in the afternoon again.
So he simply gritted his teeth and hid in the building: as long as he was found later than the real murderer, he would be safe!
Originally, Okiya Subaru was very confident in his hiding skills.
Who would have thought that now, he would be the first to be exposed. Facts have proved that no matter how good the stealth skills are, they seem to be no match for extremely bad luck - who would have thought that just when he was about to slip away from the gap of the police's search, the decorative lampshade on his head actually fell off, and the crisp clang ruthlessly exposed his figure, so he was finally blocked here.
"The police haven't come in yet. Maybe they think I'm a gunman and are making some protective arrangements."
Okiya Subaru tried his best to calm himself down and sorted out the current situation in his mind:
"I don't actually have a gun. It's only a matter of time before they complete the setup and come in to catch me. If I'm caught by the police as a murderer, I'll definitely have to go through a rigorous investigation... I heard that the organization has influence all over the world, and London Metropolitan Police is a relatively central location. If I'm unlucky and run into a colleague who is good at identifying members of the organization, and my identity is exposed, then I'm done for, right? And it will also implicate Mr. Akai in Tokyo..."
...No, I can't just sit there and wait for death! I have to find a way to escape quickly.
Subaru Okiya glanced around, and suddenly, he looked at the vent in the corner of the room.
…
A few minutes later.
The police broke in with heavy shields and searched the house carefully.
Then he paused for a moment, returned to the corridor, and reported to his superior: "Inspector, there is no one in the room."
"...No one?" Inspector Yasa's expression of planning a strategy froze on his face. "Didn't you say that you blocked the person here? Wait, did he escape out of the window?"
He rushed into the warehouse, ran quickly to the window, and looked out, just in time to meet the eyes of his subordinates who stayed below.
After staring at each other blankly for a moment, Sheriff Anna reacted belatedly: "Inspector, I have been guarding here with my men, and no one has escaped through the window."
Inspector Yasa: “…”
At this moment, he suddenly found that Jiang Xia also entered the warehouse.
The young detective walked to a corner of the room, looked at a pile of junk, then raised his hand and pointed to the top of the junk, where there was an old newspaper pasted on the wall.
"Half of this newspaper is dusty, but the other half is clean. It looks like it was temporarily unfolded to cover something." Jiang Xia suggested, "Take it off and take a look."
The nearby police officer nodded and instinctively began to run towards the wall. Halfway there, he suddenly noticed a very strong gaze.
"..." The young police officer hesitated, "Uh, Inspector, can't we reveal it?"
Inspector Yasa snorted, "What's the problem? Reveal it now."
The young policeman climbed up the pile of debris and suddenly made a discovery: "Inspector, the dust marks on it have signs of being wiped off - someone may have passed by here just now."
He looked at the newspaper again. The four corners of the newspaper were taped to the wall. Only the tape on the top was pressed firmly, while the bottom was just loosely covered on the wall. If you don't look closely, you may not be able to see it.
He lifted two corners of the newspaper and carefully tore it, revealing a hole in the wall.
"This looks like an old vent?" Jiang Xia looked up, "Where does this lead to?"
"Let me see..."
The director was also mixed in with the crowd of spectators and sneaked to the door at some point.
Hearing Jiang Xia's question, he quickly asked someone to go to his temporary office next door to get the design drawings of the building - there was a scene he wanted to shoot in this building, so he specifically asked the fan who lent the building to them for the drawings.
