Chapter 1753-1760 [Bodyguard] Ask for monthly ticket ()
Amuro Toru: "..." Isn't it just Jiang Xia's classmates who brought the production crew here? Why hide? I firmly refused the interview, so could they still go against the public opinion and film it?
Not to mention Jiang Xia’s classmates, even if Jiang Xia himself came, he couldn’t disturb him in the hospital… The only thing to pay attention to is to prevent the congressman from being murdered during this period.
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro slid into the quilt again and lay down silently.
But he looked out the window at the long night and listened to the sound of the ambulance outside, and he no longer felt sleepy.
…
Tonight's affairs were all handed over to the police and the forensic department, as well as Ito Tamonsuke's self-healing ability. Jiang Xia didn't stay too long and went home to rest.
The next day, remembering the live broadcast that had not yet ended, Jiang Xia pretended to attend a day of classes.
At night, Jiang Xia remembered that he had a classmate lying in the hospital and his two ghosts were still hanging on someone's legs, so he thought he should go to the hospital to visit him. He also brought along Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko who were also worried.
After finishing their meal, several people bought flowers and gifts for the visit and went to the hospital.
When they arrived at the door of Ito Tamonsuke's ward, it was already dark. Just as they were about to go in, they found a policeman guarding the door.
Jiang Xia looked at the man and walked over: "You look familiar, are you from the Investigation Section 1?"
The policeman was stunned. He didn't expect that Jiang Xia could remember him just a few days after he was transferred here. He was immediately a little touched.
He thought for a moment and whispered, "Ito Tamonsuke hasn't woken up yet, and even if he did, he would refuse visitors. I heard from the police that he has not been completely cleared of suspicion, and there are even his fingerprints on the murder weapon."
Jiang Xia: "But it's just a suspicion, we can't be sure yet."
The police officer nodded. "In fact, several members of the troupe left fingerprints on the murder weapon. After all, that thing is a daily necessity and is often touched by people. However, there are no fingerprints of the financial manager who died last night.
"In fact, we have another speculation internally, saying that it was the financial manager who attacked Ito Tamanosuke last night, and then she thought she had killed someone, and she was so panicked that she accidentally fell to her death. But in this case, according to your testimony yesterday, someone else killed the screenwriter, and there will be two murderers in this case."
Suzuki Sonoko frowned as she heard this: "Since everyone's fingerprints are stuck on it, why do you suspect Ito Tamonsuke is the murderer and ask you to guard him? There's obviously no one guarding the other troupe members."
The police officer glanced into the ward, motioned for her to lower her voice, and then he whispered, "The doctor said that Ito Tamonsuke's injury is not that serious. When we asked why he was still not conscious, the doctor said it was a mental problem.
“Although the doctor didn’t dare to say it explicitly, there is a strong possibility that he is not dizzy due to physical reasons, but because he doesn’t want to face reality and is pretending to be dizzy.
"Also, weren't there two identical pieces of letter paper found at the scene? Judging from the handwriting of the two letters that called people out, they were written by Ito Tamonsuke. Although the evidence cannot be strung together yet, all the details now are very unfavorable to your classmate."
As he was talking, the young police officer couldn't help but sigh: "Such a malicious handwriting was actually written by that pretty student. You can't judge a person by his appearance."
Jiang Xia: "...Maybe his handwriting is just not very good?"
The young police officer still felt that Ito Tamonsuke was highly suspicious: "In fact, there were more than two copies of the letter - we asked separately yesterday, and the other members of the group all received exactly the same thing.
"Also, the person who wrote the letter was clearly Ito Tamanosuke, but he wrote the Romanization of "to Ito" "itoe" at the beginning. It's so weird no matter how you look at it, it smells like a conspiracy!"
Mao Lilan still didn't want to believe that her classmate was the murderer: "Forget about the screenwriter...but he had no reason to kill Miss Jiang. The financial manager treated the brothers and sisters very well and was a good person."
"Alas, you don't understand. You can't judge a person by his appearance." The police officer shook his head. "According to our investigation, the financial manager who died last night had embezzled a lot of the troupe's funds over the years. The entire troupe combined is not as rich as her. She also purchased inferior materials to make a profit, and almost caused the actors to be injured.
"One is the troupe's cancerous screenwriter, and the other is a vampire lying on the troupe. Not to mention the hot-blooded high school students, even I can't help it... Well, anyway, although there is no hard evidence that your classmates committed the crime, you should be mentally prepared."
After hearing what he said, Ito Tamonsuke's motive for murder was clear.
Jiang Xia looked at the police officer, felt that he had great potential, and handed him a business card.
Conan's attention was much more focused, and he suddenly remembered something: "Did you find the disk where the screenwriter put the script? It disappeared after the first murder happened yesterday. I suspect it was taken away by the murderer."
"Found it. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten to tell you." The police officer happily put away the business card. "The disk was found in Ito Tamonsuke's room. The information inside was completely cleared, leaving only an empty disk, thrown into the trash can... Alas, we don't want to suspect a high school student, but he is too suspicious. All the evidence points to him."
Jiang Xia suddenly turned around and looked towards the corner.
Conan was still listening to the police officer, but suddenly he saw his movements and became alert. He looked over and asked, "What's wrong?!"
Jiang Xia retracted his gaze: "Nothing." ... I just suddenly found this hospital quite lively.
…
The police officers could not let them into the ward, and Ito Tamonsuke did not seem to want to wake up.
Jiang Xia did not insist on going in: "Let's go to the theater again. Maybe there are some missing clues there that can help Ito Tamanosuke clear his suspicion."
They placed the flowers and gifts at the door and asked the police officers to pass them on and then left quickly.
Conan followed Jiang Xia out absentmindedly.
When passing by the yard, he was startled as if he had been electrocuted, and suddenly noticed a sight.
Conan turned his head suddenly and looked at a window in the ward, but it was empty, with no one there.
"...I felt like someone was staring at us just now." Conan frowned and whispered to Jiang Xia, "I always have a bad feeling."
Jiang Xia also looked back as he did: "Maybe it's an illusion."
Conan is a practical detective. Without evidence, no matter how strong his intuition is, he only maintains a hint of suspicion and is not sure.
Several high school students took a taxi and left with different moods.
After they completely disappeared in the distance, the curtain of one of the hospital's wards moved slightly, and Toru Amuro walked out from the side.
