Chapter 315 Self-shark is prohibited here
After handing over the evidence, Mrs. Shibata confessed everything as expected, and also took her neighbor Yoshikawa Takezo away with her. Yoshikawa Takezo often gathered people at home to gamble big sums, and Shibata Shiro was a frequent visitor. By now, Shibata Shiro had lost all his savings and started selling things at home. Mrs. Shibata, who could no longer bear it, finally decided to kill her husband.
Unexpectedly, now that the person was successfully killed, her murderous act was also exposed...
Kyoko Shibata thought of the knife in the room, clenched her fist silently, and said to the police who were going to take her to the police station: "I'll go change my clothes first."
As she said that, she pushed open the door of the room.
Just as her sad gaze fell on the knife on the wall and she was about to close the door and pull it out to commit suicide, a voice suddenly came from behind her.
Jiang Xia muttered hesitantly but not slowly: "There seems to be a knife in that room. I saw it when I passed by just now."
“…”
The air suddenly became quiet.
0.5 seconds later, Mrs. Shibata kicked the ground hard and rushed towards the sharp steel knife. At the same time, several police officers reacted and rushed towards her.
A group of people dragged into the room. In the end, the police successfully held down Mrs. Shibata before she pulled out the knife, preventing her from committing suicide.
Things like suicide often follow the characteristics of being strong at first, then declining and finally exhausted.
Jiang Xia listened to Mrs. Shibata crying and the background sound of Shizuka Hattori comforting her. She took out her phone and sent a text message to Mao Lilan with a hint of expectation: "Are you done shopping?"
If you haven't finished shopping, add him again.
The record can wait until later. It just so happens that the leg-grabbing shikigami we met today was quite sensible. Just now, when Mrs. Shibata was huddled with the police, the shikigami had already fallen off her legs and was picked up by the mermaid who was watching the huddling.
Mao Lilan is indeed the most reliable ghost-hunting assistant. Not long after Jiang Xia sent the message, she replied:
[We met Hattori's friend at Meiji Jingu Shrine and are now visiting his home]
A detailed address is also included at the end.
…
The person that Hattori Heiji and his companions met at the Meiji Jingu Shrine was the Morizono family's fiancée Katagiri Kaede, and the butler who accompanied her, Shigematsu Akio.
Hattori Heiji knew that his mother's main purpose of coming to Tokyo this time was to attend the Morizono family's wedding banquet tomorrow. The couple who were about to get married were exactly the Katagiri Kaede he had met by chance, and the Morizono family's famous playboy, Morizono Kikuto.
It was a rare opportunity, so Butler Shigematsu invited a few people to visit the Morizono family.
Hattori Heiji didn't want to go at first, fearing that it would delay his commission tomorrow, but he always felt that the bride-to-be Katagiri Kaede's expression was a little strange, and he felt a little uneasy.
He hesitated for a moment, but still went to the Morizono family. Of course, Toyama Kazuha, Mao Lilan and Conan also followed him.
As the sons of Hattori Shizuka, the group received a sumptuous hospitality and met the people of the Morizono family one after another: the head of the family with gray hair, Morizono Mikio, his daughter Morizono Yurie, the adopted son of Shigematsu butler Sakuraba Yuji, and the son of the Morizono family, Morizono Kikuto, who has a romantic appearance but speaks cheesy love words.
Hattori Heiji was a little nervous before coming, but when he really arrived at the place and saw this relatively harmonious group of people, he immediately felt a lot more relieved.
After dinner, when he was about to leave, Hattori Heiji walked in the yard with his hands in his pockets, looked up at the crescent moon hanging quietly in the sky, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Yuanshan Heye asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Hattori Heiji looked at the two Tokyo high school students walking in front of him and whispered to her in a low voice: "Without Jiang Xia, the environment will indeed become safe."
"..." Yuanshan Heye glanced at him and felt that his childhood friend was wearing tinted glasses with extremely high degrees. "What does it have to do with Jiangxia? Don't you always encounter various incidents? Maybe the cases you complained about were actually caused by you."
Hattori Heiji snorted: "Although I have solved many cases, most of them are bloodless cases such as theft and fraud. But when I came to Tokyo..."
Halfway through their conversation, they suddenly heard a roar coming from far away, as if a motorcycle was approaching at high speed.
Hattori Heiji looked towards the door in confusion. The Morizono family's mansion was located in the suburbs with good air, some distance from the city. In the middle of the night, there were people racing in such a place...
Conan's face changed slightly. As an innocent neighbor who lived only one building away from Jiang Xia's house and was often seen passing by Jiang Xia, he always felt that the sound of the motorcycle was very familiar...
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he saw a motorcycle approaching at high speed, and finally stopped at the gate of Moriyuan's house, stirring up a fine dust.
Under the street light, the night racing rider took off his helmet, revealing a face that made Hattori Heiji's expression suddenly change.
Jiang Xia sat on the motorcycle and looked at the two guests from Osaka: "I didn't have time to play with you guys during the day, but I do know a lot of entertainment activities suitable for the evening. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"Suitable for the evening?" Yuanshan Heye rarely went out to play at night, and was very interested. He trotted over and asked, "Where are we going?"
"..." Conan immediately thought of Jiang Xia's group of Shamatte brothers who occasionally sent cats to the doctor's house, and then thought of the racing cars and game halls... Would Jiang Xia really use these to entertain guests? !
Although Hattori Heiji was somewhat interested in the night activities that Jiang Xia mentioned, his repulsion towards Jiang Xia was enough to suppress all kinds of curiosity.
He was about to decline and pull Yuanshan and Ye back, but at this moment, a crisp "click" sound suddenly came from behind him.
The shattering sound came from diagonally above, not close by, but the sound could be clearly heard from far away in the quiet night.
Several people were shocked and turned their heads to look at the tall and beautiful building of Moriyuan's house. They saw that a window on the third floor had been smashed from the inside, and debris fell in the moonlight.
Hattori Heiji looked at the window, recalling the fear he felt when he was a guest at the Morizono family, and then thought of Jiang Xia standing at the gate of the yard. For some reason, he felt as if a sword hanging in the air had finally fallen.
He quickly came to his senses, his eyes twitched, and he threw away the messy thoughts in his mind, then turned to the people behind him: "Watch that window, He Ye, go find Uncle Shigematsu!"
After saying that, Hattori Heiji quickly rushed to the third floor, wanting to take a look at the room with the broken window.
Conan quickly followed him.
It doesn't take too many people to guard the windows; Mao Lilan herself is enough.
Jiang Xia put down his helmet and ran towards the house where the problem occurred.
When he saw the address of Morizono's house before, he calculated the distance between the two places and thought he would not be able to get there in time.
I didn't expect that I would arrive at the right time.
