Chapter 2559 2571 [Tracing] Asking for monthly tickets ヽ(〃〃)~
Yuya Kazami: [Except for a few children, most of the other passengers in that seat have been to the Metropolitan Police Department. I marked them with numbers. You can check the corresponding records according to the numbers.]
[However, there was one passenger whom I could not find in the transcript list—he seemed to have left during the journey.]
Toru Amuro's eyes swept across his subordinates' messages, comparing the photos and transcripts one by one.
Soon, his eyes paused and stared at a picture that was cut out from the video.
The high-speed bus made the whole picture blurry, but after simple processing, the target's features were still clearly revealed - it was a curly-haired man wearing black clothes and sunglasses. He was sitting leisurely in his seat, and although his expression could not be seen clearly, it could be seen that he was in a leisurely posture, as if he didn't care about the brutal robbers in the bus at all.
"Kurosawa..." Amuro Toru muttered the last name with mixed feelings, "It's him."
The last time they met at the Golden Annex, Matsu... this "Kurosawa" who looked very much like Matsuda was acting suspiciously, which made Amuro Toru briefly suspicious.
He had also tried to investigate the other party, but unfortunately, after that incident, this person seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and the public security authorities were unable to find out any information despite their best efforts.
Later, because there were too many important things, Toru Amuro had to let go of his subordinates who were on the verge of sudden death and asked them to shift the focus of the investigation elsewhere... But unexpectedly, just today, this person appeared again, as the suspect of "Uzo".
"Could he really be Uzo? But why does he look so much like him, so much like..." Toru Amuro recalled the many suspicious points he found last time in the Golden Villa, as if he could hear his own heartbeat.
After several seconds, he took a deep breath and clenched his fists secretly: "Whether it is a trap or Wu Zuo really made a mistake, this time, we can't let the opportunity slip away from us."
After muttering to himself, his thoughts suddenly paused: "..." Wait, what did Feng Jian say just now?
Amuro Toru silently flipped through the pages and his eyes fell on a line of words: [However, there was one passenger I could not find in the transcript list—he seemed to have left on the way.]
Toru Amuro: "..."
If I had known I wouldn’t have chased Akai Shuichi then…Damn FBI!
At this moment, Toru Amuro's anger towards an innocent agent reached its peak.
Having said that, as a rational adult, Toru Amuro can only try to calm himself down and find ways to save the situation.
"The man ran away, but the traces he left behind will not disappear." Amuro Toru took a deep breath and returned his gaze to the transcript. "Since Kurosawa showed up on the bus so brazenly, he must have left traces behind."
…
Not long after, Yuya Kazami's cell phone rang.
He was startled, turned around and saw the familiar string of numbers on the screen, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
However, no matter how much he felt, he still had to work. Thinking of this, Kazami Yuya slowly reached out his hand and answered the phone with difficulty: "Mr. Furuya."
"Yes." The boss responded, and then made a devilish voice, "Go check, check all the stations along the way before the car was hijacked, find out at which station Kurosawa got on the bus, and then expand the investigation from that point - he is a living person, and he will always leave traces wherever he passes by!"
"This..." Feng Jianyuya thought of the number of sites and his eyes went dark. "Okay, I'll do it right away."
With the backup support, Toru Amuro hung up the phone and felt relieved.
After thinking about it, he reopened the report and looked through it carefully.
It didn't take long for this experienced intelligence agent to discover something wrong: most of the other people who were taking the statements did not notice the curly-haired man mixed in the crowd, but the last statement, which was extremely brief, actually mentioned Shuichi Akai and "Mr. Kurosawa" in great detail.
——The recorder even knew that the curly-haired man called himself "Kurosawa".
Almost in an instant, Toru Amuro came to the conclusion - there was something wrong with the guy who was taking the notes, and it was a big problem.
Thinking of this, he deliberately found the man's name and took a look at it.
Then silence fell.
"Edogawa Conan?" Amuro Toru's eyes twitched slightly, "Isn't this the smart little kid next to Jiang Xia?"
…
Jiang Xia left the Metropolitan Police Department and passed by a car.
After a moment, he slapped his forehead, as if he had forgotten to take something, and turned around and walked towards the Metropolitan Police Department, passing by the car again.
When passing by for the third time, the people in the car finally came to their senses and caught sight of the figure next to them.
"Jiang Xia." Toru Amuro pushed the door and got out of the car. It was rare that he took the initiative to talk to his employees.
"Boss Amuro?" Jiang Xia waved at him in a good mood, "Just now I felt that the person in the car looked familiar, and it turned out to be you."
Amuro Toru went straight to the point: "I heard that Akai held a curly-haired man hostage on the bus you were riding just now. Do you have any impression?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "On the way, Conan angered the kidnappers. When the kidnappers wanted to kill people, the gentleman stopped them."
Amuro Toru: "..." I didn't expect him to be a good guy. He really looks more and more like Matsuda... No! Uzo is different from other organization cadres. He has his own style. In addition to goodwill, there are too many other factors that may make him take action - for example, he doesn't want the stage to be destroyed in advance, or he doesn't want important actors who haven't appeared on stage to be scared away by the unexpected. In short, we can't take it lightly because of this matter.
He continued to ask: "What else?"
"What else?" Jiang Xia sighed, looking very regretful. "Then I was a little distracted and didn't pay much attention to the situation in the car."
Toru Amuro: "..."
He originally thought that with Jiang Xia's insight, he would definitely notice many details that others could not. The reason why Jiang Xia did not mention Akai Shuichi and the curly-haired man too much in the transcript must be because he found something wrong and was reluctant to tell the police.
But now... Jiang Xia is just distracted?
This originally sounded like an excuse, but when you think about the fact that the vehicle was about to explode and everyone was trying to escape, but Jiang Xia was still sitting in the car in a leisurely daze... Amuro Toru's suspicion could only dissipate at this point.
"Before, I was thinking that maybe I could investigate psychologists openly under the guise of 'finding a psychologist for Jiang Xia' and then find clues related to Uzo."
Amuro Toru sighed and muttered to himself, "But now it seems that this is not a cover-up at all. We really need to find a doctor for Jiang Xia. The conclusion drawn by the psychologist who pretended to be Mrs. Cat is really unreliable. What do you mean by 'Jiang Xia doesn't have any serious problems, he just has some teenage fantasies'... This means there is no problem? We should let her come in person to see how calm Jiang Xia is on the bomb truck."
