Chapter 2965 2977 [The Beautiful Fantasy of Wuzo's Subordinates] Ask for a monthly ticket (`)
Conan: "But in this case, the buyer also meets the requirements..."
As he was speaking, Officer Takagi's cell phone suddenly rang.
He answered the call and heard his colleague's voice on the other end: "I went to the cinema that the sofa buyer mentioned to investigate. A staff member said he remembered Miss Hosono. Then I checked the surveillance according to the specific time and found the footage of her entering and leaving the cinema - her alibi is valid."
Conan, who was eavesdropping with his ears pricked up, said: "..."
Jiang Xia looked at Officer Gao Mu and continued, "If this sofa used to hide the body was once Mr. Tokunaga's, then we must be able to find corresponding traces in his house. In addition, there will be a lot of evidence related to the deceased left at the first crime scene..."
Officer Gao Mu immediately understood what he wanted to say: "I'll apply for a search right now!"
…
Fourth floor.
Tokunaga Kazuhiro hummed a song and popped open a bottle of champagne, intending to have a drink to celebrate: the annoying person died, and the sofa he wanted to get rid of was moved away by a kind person. Although it was soon messed up by the annoying neighbor again, the wronged person immediately took the blame for him...
"Today is really my lucky day."
He sat at the table and took a sip of wine. Suddenly he felt like he was missing some snacks, so he put on his coat and planned to go to a nearby convenience store to buy some.
When I walked downstairs, I saw the stupid policemen still standing there in a daze. As I walked out of the corridor, the policemen raised their heads and looked over at me.
Tokunaga and Hirohiro were stunned at first, and then they remembered the key clue they had just provided.
He nodded to the police, and like a concerned citizen who shared honor and disgrace, he earnestly urged them, "We must catch the murderer as soon as possible. Speaking of which, at noon, in addition to Miss Hosono's quarrel, I vaguely heard the sound of someone being hit."
After saying that, he saw a policeman walking towards him.
Tokunaga and Hiroshi cleared their throats and were about to describe in detail what they had seen and heard. However, at this moment, there was a click, and a pair of shiny handcuffs fell on his wrists.
Tokunaga Kazuhiro: “……?”
"We just got evidence - Miss Hosono was not at home during the time you mentioned." Officer Takagi, "We now suspect that you have committed perjury. Please cooperate with the investigation."
Tokunaga and Hirohiro came back to their senses and started to panic: "No, I, I just heard a quarrel, I didn't say that she was the one who quarreled..."
Conan looked at this guy who almost deceived him because of his unusual thinking, and snorted coldly with a hint of selfishness: "Don't quibble, it's actually you who killed someone."
Not long after, as forensic police officers entered his home, Tokunaga Kazuhiro's knees went weak and he fell to the ground.
"I, I didn't want to kill her at first." He murmured as if his soul had left his body. "A while ago, I borrowed some money from that old woman. Since I couldn't pay it back right away, I asked her to give me another week."
"I begged her so much! But not only did she not agree, she rushed to my house angrily and threatened me that if I couldn't pay back the money on time, I would have to use my tavern as collateral.
"That's the shop I spent my entire life working on! I've never taken a day off to run it. No matter it was raining, windy or sick, I would always open the shop on time. But she wanted to take my shop away with just a few words..."
Amid the murderer's cries, the young police officer put him in a police car and took him to the Metropolitan Police Department.
"I didn't expect such a complicated case to be over so quickly." Officer Takagi stretched happily: It would be great if I could meet Jiang Xia every time something happens.
Next to her, Maya Hashimoto looked at the sofa, then at the building, then at the murderer, and finally fell into deep thought.
——Based on experience, today's case should be just a part of Lord Uzo's daily entertainment. But the strange thing is... why did the secretary pass by here and was held by the ankle by the corpse?
"Could it be that she caused dissatisfaction from Lord Usa when she was doing things, and was punished?" Hashimoto Maya touched her chin, and when she thought of this, she couldn't help but curl her lips slightly:
“After all, according to my experience, the more capable a person is, the more complicated the situation they will deal with, and the more likely they will make mistakes, just like when Mr. Ireland wanted me to deal with Lord Uzo… If Miss Secretary continues to make mistakes, maybe my last place in the elimination order can be moved forward one step?
"However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this was just an accident. When Lord Uzo arranged these cases, he probably would not deliberately spoil the situation for his subordinates. Just like me, I am often involved in various stages, but I have never received any warnings...
"If that's the case, then judging from what happened today, when I get a higher position in the future and encounter a case I don't want to get involved in, I can just beckon to other colleagues nearby and ask them to come over and handle it for me, while I stay away from the dangerous stage and watch from the sidelines..."
Thinking about how Conan and Suzuki Sonoko would run around busily as soon as she hooked her fingers, Hashimoto Maya's mood quietly improved.
"Mr. Hashimoto?" A voice came. Seeing that he didn't respond, the owner of the voice raised his hand and patted him, "Mr. Hashimoto."
Hashimoto Maya was startled and came back to her senses from her beautiful fantasy: "What's the matter?"
Jiang Xia: "There is another crime scene nearby, do you want to go take a look together?"
"No..." Hashimoto Maya instinctively said no, but soon, his professional ambition made him take a deep breath and change his words, "Of course I will go. I want to learn more about reasoning from you."
Conan rolled his eyes quietly: "..." Ha, a bootlicker who would do anything to get close to Jiang Xia.
Hashimoto Maya seemed to have noticed something and looked down at him. Although she didn't fully understand Conan's thoughts, she successfully identified the disdain hidden in his expression.
Hashimoto Maya: "..." It seems that I made the right promise - this kid not only used the method of arguing to show Jiang Xia his false nature of being good at thinking and liking to learn, but also changed his mind and questioned the criminal after the truth was revealed, trying to use the contrast before and after to improve his favorability in Jiang Xia's heart...
Tsk, what a tricky colleague. I can't relax for a moment around this guy.
…
Soon, everyone walked along the street and came to a restaurant not far away.
——A murder also happened here, a poisoning case at a graduate student party.
Officer Shiratori was standing at the entrance of the restaurant, listening to his subordinates' reports. Suddenly he noticed something and turned his head to look over here.
After seeing Officer Takagi's relaxed expression and brisk steps, the corners of the rich second-generation policeman's eyes twitched silently.
