Chapter 3182 3194 [Dangerous Plan]
Facing the questioning gazes of the group of people, Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "In order to prevent innocent people from being wrongly accused, I need to talk to everyone one by one and ask some questions before deciding on the specific candidate for the murderer."
The program director was bewildered and asked, "Is there such a step in the reasoning? Are you planning to search me?"
"Of course not." Hattori Heiji shook his head, "It's just that there are some questions that only the murderer can give specific answers to. If we ask them in front of everyone, this screening method will be meaningless - so..."
He raised his hand and pointed at the dark-skinned, yellow-haired crew member: "Let's start with you. You look the most suspicious."
"I'm not the murderer." The yellow-haired man muttered dissatisfiedly, but did not resist.
He had been frightened out of his wits by what had just happened, and was eager to find the real culprit, so despite his dissatisfaction, he quickly stood up and said, "Go ahead and ask if you want to. Where are we going?"
"Into that room over there."
Hattori Heiji stepped aside to let him out, then closed the door until only a crack was left, and said to the others in the room, "Don't worry, we will be done with the questioning soon - you can use this time to decide the order of the next questioning."
As he said that, he closed the door and took Conan and the yellow-haired boy to another room.
Curacao looked at the two men, then at Jiang Xia: "..." He felt that the two lackeys had no good intentions. Then again, she wouldn't have to be questioned alone, would she?
...No, if that's the case, I must not agree to it even if I can find an excuse to delay until help arrives.
When a member of the organization was secretly anxious.
Beside them, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan also came back to their senses after being confused for a while. They whispered to Jiang Xia: "Has Hattori really found the murderer?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Probably."
"But..." Mao Lilan was a little confused, and lowered her voice even more, "Why didn't he just arrest people directly, but instead talked to them one by one?"
Jiang Xia seemed to think about it and said, "It might be a new way to find evidence."
"What are you guys talking about?" As he was talking, the long-haired man looked at the high school students who were huddled together and whispering, "According to what the black-skinned detective said, let's decide the order of questioning. Who will go first?"
Suzuki Sonoko said confidently: "Of course you came first - we don't know the two dead people, so it's impossible for us to be the murderer."
"That's not necessarily true." Although the long-haired man argued a little, he probably agreed with this statement in his heart, so he stopped asking questions and continued to discuss the order with a few locals.
After a simple arrangement, everyone returned to the dining table and sat down, waiting with heavy faces.
A minute passed.
5 minutes passed.
Half an hour passed...
"What's going on?"
The crew members finally got a little impatient and looked at the closed door in confusion: "Didn't that guy say that there would be results soon? It's been half an hour. If we keep going at this speed, the rescue ship will arrive before we finish the questioning."
Just as he was complaining, suddenly, there was a chaotic noise outside the door - clanging like tables and chairs falling, followed by the door opening and closing, and then Hattori Heiji's shouting: "Stop! Damn it, who told you to run away!!"
"Um?"
The deputy captain leaning against the door turned around and opened the door. The others also ran over and looked outside, and saw Hattori Heiji and Conan flashing past the restaurant door, as if they were chasing something.
Everyone asked in confusion, "What happened?"
"Do you even need to ask this?" Hattori Heiji stopped and looked back at them, "The yellow-haired guy ran away!"
Mao Lilan was shocked: "Why did he run? Could it be that he is the murderer?"
Conan complained loudly: "It's all Hattori-san's fault for saying those words to scare him."
Jiang Xia noticed that he was looking at her, and cooperated considerately: "What did you say?"
Conan: "Brother Hattori was annoyed that the blond brother was dragging his feet and refused to explain, so he urged him, 'By the time you give us the answer, we will probably all become Urashima Taro.'"
Hattori Heiji looked helpless: "Who made him keep silent all the time? I could only urge him, but who knew that he would run away as soon as I urged him."
He sighed and looked at everyone: "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this, everyone quickly split up to look for him - if he loses his mind and jumps into the sea to commit suicide, things will be troublesome, we must find him as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he rushed out first with Conan.
"Kume is actually the murderer?" In the corridor, the long-haired man thought of the yellow-haired companion who occasionally played with him, and felt a little bit unbelievable.
But the situation was urgent now and it was not the time to think about these things. The group of people did not dare to delay and quickly dispersed and left the room, looking everywhere for the yellow-haired man who had run away to an unknown place.
…
Jiang Xia and two classmates also left and joined the search for people.
But just as they reached the back of the house, a small hand suddenly stretched out from the side and stealthily pulled them into the woods.
"Conan?" Suzuki Sonoko looked down at him, "Didn't you and Hattori already... Hey! Heipi, why aren't you wearing any clothes!!"
"You're not wearing any clothes!" Hattori Heiji took off his shirt and hurriedly put on another light blue short-sleeved shirt.
Then he threw the changed clothes to Conan: "Let Conan tell you the details, I'm going to be busy now!"
As he spoke, he plunged into the dimly lit dense woods like an actor on a stage.
Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan looked at this scene blankly. After a moment, they looked at Conan again: "What are you two doing? Aren't you looking for the missing Mr. Kume now? By the way, why does the clothes that Hattori just changed into look so familiar?"
Jiang Xia: "That should be Mr. Kume's clothes."
Two high school girls: “???”
In other words, the yellow-haired guy took off his shirt before he ran away, and now Hattori Heiji has to pick up the shirt, put it on and go find him? ... What kind of weird plot is this? Cinderella and her midnight high heels?
They used their imaginations to try to recreate the chaotic scene, but they were unable to do so.
"Don't think too much, this is just a plan set up by me and... ahem, Hattori brother."
Conan said in a childish voice: "The blond brother is not the murderer, but the murderer's next target."
“So after calling Kume-nii-san into the room alone, we stalled for a while to make the murderer anxious.
"After that, when the atmosphere was right, we knocked Mr. Kume unconscious, took off his clothes, and hid him in the room, creating the illusion that he had run away in fear."
