Chapter 32223234 [Haunted]
But no matter what, it's good that the case is solved.
The two policemen high-fived each other and shook hands vigorously, "Brother Inoki, immediately list Kumada Tatsuya as a key suspect and bring him to the police station!"
Officer Inoki's face was also filled with joy that he was about to get off work: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
The two of them went out happily.
Curacao looked at their cheerful backs: "..."
Although I have no idea what sinister script Uzo has written this time, based on experience, these two stupid cops will probably be happy in vain.
However, with new clues, we are finally one step closer to solving the case.
Curacao turned her head away and yawned quietly: it was the third sleepless night. Compared with the little grudge between her and the police, she was just like a simple and enthusiastic citizen, praying wholeheartedly that this case would be solved quickly. Only in this way could she leave this deadly place and return to her safe home which was not very warm but at least there was no Uzo.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Jiang Xia also stood up.
The famous detective walked out of the door and caught up with the two policemen. "I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well go over and take a look. If the murderer is really Mr. Kumada, I might be able to help find some important evidence."
The two policemen looked back in confusion: "This..."
They originally thought it was unnecessary, but then they thought, even with the red hat and a few witnesses, it seems that they cannot directly prove that Kumada Tatsu is the murderer.
In addition, if I remember correctly, this important suspect was also an important suspect in another murder case five years ago, and he successfully got away with it - it would be a fantasy to expect someone who has successfully escaped the law to honestly confess his guilt.
Thinking of this, the horse-faced policeman immediately changed his tone: "Then thank you for your help!"
Suzuki Sonoko and Huihara Ai also peeked out of the gate. Although they didn't understand, they said in unison for different reasons, "I want to go too."
Conan did not participate in the speech - as an experienced mini detective, he had already quietly slipped into the police car while Jiang Xia was talking to the two policemen.
…
Finally, a packed car set off towards its destination.
With a name and a rough address, and the fact that the other party had been involved in a lawsuit...it didn't take long for the police to find out where Tatsuya Kumada was currently living.
"I didn't expect that his home is only about 20 minutes' drive from Lawyer Ju's home." The two policemen sat in the front seat and chatted while driving. "It seems that this guy is becoming more and more suspicious."
Conan stroked his chin, feeling that things were not that simple - there were too many doubts in this case. Speaking of which...
He looked back and saw that behind the police car, there was another car following openly - it was Lawyer Shirai's car.
Just now they were planning to go find the suspect with Jiang Xia, but they didn't expect that Lawyer Shirai would follow them and take the initiative to propose that they go together.
"How far will she go to follow Jiang Xia?" Conan sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of urgency as if a sharp knife was hanging over his head. "She has been following me for so long but has done nothing. Or has she actually done something but I just didn't notice it?"
In the back car.
“A-choo!”
Curacao sneezed slightly.
In the passenger seat, Mao Lilan looked at her and said with some concern: "Are you okay, Ms. Shirai? You don't look well - do you have a cold?"
Curacao was silent: "It's okay."
It was normal for anyone to look pale after three days, but it was not a big problem - as long as the case was solved and she left Jiangxia, she was sure that she would return to normal immediately.
But this wonderful future without Uzo would come later. As for now...she had to grit her teeth and keep up with this fake detective, preferably without leaving his side.
——More than ten minutes ago, when Curacao found out that Uzo was going to follow the police to find the suspect and his minions rushed out, he instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that the air around him without Uzo and his minions became sweeter.
But before he could take a few more breaths, Curacao looked at the remaining people in the villa and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
——The male secretary, the old maid, the guy with a middle-parted hairstyle in the office, the young wife who has not yet appeared but has a subtle relationship with the deceased, and even himself... The suspects this time seem to have far exceeded the three choices that Uzo likes.
And in this case...
"Could it be that this time, it's not just Lawyer Tachibana who died - another one of the remaining people will die, making it a serial murder?"
"If that's the case, no wonder Uzo suddenly took his people away from the villa..."
Thinking of this, Curacao slowly raised her head. The magnificent villa in front of her seemed to be twisting in front of her eyes, gradually losing its bright and beautiful colors and turning into a black and white blood-stained curtain.
...I can't stay here! On one side are the police and Uzo's gang, and on the other side is this villa where everything can be turned into a murder scene. Which side is safer? There is no need to think about it!
With this in mind, Curacao fought against the feeling of "not wanting to stand with Uzo", took extremely heavy steps, and relied on reason to chase after him and join the crowd.
She had endured so many days, and it was not the first time she had to stay next to Wuzo. She only had to endure it for a little longer, and it would be over in the blink of an eye. In comparison, she did not want to be like the tragic characters in those stories, collapsing miserably in the last moment before dawn.
…
The people in the two cars in front and behind were wary of each other for their own reasons.
Jiang Xia turned around and glanced at the fragrant aloe vera car behind him, feeling a little regretful.
If I had known that Curacao wanted to go with me, I should have left a little later and sat in her car... But if I really got in, and Curacao changed his mind and didn't want to go, it would be a waste of time.
——Forget it, just stay away from him. Anyway, we are so close and the murderous aura will not be lost.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia took out a mint mixed with aloe vera and iced black tea, intending to satisfy his craving.
But after taking a look at the two policemen in the front row, and then at the little hand that suddenly appeared and hugged his arm... After a moment of silence, under the gloomy gaze of Huihara Ai, Jiang Xia had no choice but to flick away another cigarette butt and push the delicious ghost mint back.
…
"arrive!"
When they arrived at the building where Tatsuya Kumada lived, the two policemen perked up and tiptoed up the stairs.
When they arrived at the door, they first waved their hands to signal the high school students to step back to avoid accidental injuries, then they rang the doorbell with a serious face, as if ready to catch someone at any time.
