Chapter 3241 3253 [Organization's Safe House] Added to Broken Moon i
Hideo Goda was startled and quickly argued: "But have you forgotten what I just said - when Mrs. Izuki was killed, I was with these two detectives!"
Conan: "..." What do you mean two? Shouldn't it be three?
Sato Miwako shook her head and said, "After killing someone, as long as you put down the pre-set tape, when the time is up, it will play the sound of running away and the door closing, creating the illusion that the real murderer is someone else."
"Also, judging from what happened with the projector just now, Mrs. Izuki turned up the volume very high when she watched the movie. With that kind of sound masking, plus the noise of the kitchen stove, even if you hit someone through two walls, it is very likely that others would not hear the movement."
Beside him, Calvados listened to the policewoman's speculation and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: when he was pulled up by the police just now, he thought it was bad, but he didn't expect that the situation would be reversed as soon as he showed his face... The identity of this enthusiastic citizen was unexpectedly useful?
Thinking of this, the wounds on my body that had not yet fully healed seemed to be less painful.
Conan suddenly realized something and secretly looked at the suspicious Mr. Yamaguchi, just in time to see the other person's relieved expression.
"..." Looking at this scene, and thinking about the scene just now when Toru Amuro decisively pointed out that Hideo Goda lacked an alibi, Conan touched his chin and felt that something was wrong.
"Although Mr. Goda is indeed suspicious, we cannot let the police focus all their attention on him as the two men in black wish without sufficient evidence." Conan muttered to himself:
"That would only help those two guys who are highly suspected to be members of the Black Organization achieve their goal - what if they were actually the ones who killed the person?"
Thinking of this, when the police surrounded Hideo Goda, he spoke like a good boy who spoke the truth, puzzled: "But that's not right, police uncle, when you checked the scene, you should have found a plate of sandwiches and a cup of coffee in the audio-visual room.
"——After making the sandwiches in the kitchen, Uncle Amuro, Brother Jiang Xia and I went to the audio-visual room to deliver the meal to the aunt. She was still alive at the time and even spoke to us.
"From then until the body was found, Mr. Goda was with the three of us. Anyway, he definitely didn't sneak out to kill someone while making a sandwich!"
"Ah." Officer Sato looked embarrassed. "Is that so? I'm really sorry."
Inspector Megure had experienced more than this young subordinate, so he didn't feel much shame for guessing the wrong murderer. When he heard that Goda Hideo didn't have the time to commit the crime, he immediately looked at another backup suspect.
Calvados, who just breathed a sigh of relief, said: "???"
He was stunned at first, then his eyes twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but glare at Conan.
"Not only did this kid accidentally discover my hidden guns, but now he has also inadvertently caused me such a big trouble... Is he born to be my nemesis?" An outlaw was furious, and murderous intent slowly rose up. "I'll find a chance to kill him another day - if I can't kill Jiang Xia, can I kill this annoying kid?"
Although he was furious, Calvados had to face the difficult situation of being treated as a criminal suspect once again.
"Why am I here?" Facing the police's question, Calvados took a deep breath and answered like an ordinary citizen, "Didn't something happen at Guangming Apartment where I live? The landlord's grandson was killed by his classmate. After that, the landlord sold the apartment, and the person who took over the new apartment was Mrs. Izuki."
"I was too lazy to move, so I made an appointment to ask her if I could renew the contract. But when I arrived, she said she had something else to do and asked me to come back another day.
"I thought since I was already here, I would just wait for a while at her doorstep. But who knew that what I would receive was the news of her death."
Toru Amuro: "..."
Hearing an organization cadre talking about moving, houses, and renting landlords feels really magical - it is said that money-making industries are written in the criminal law, and the organization has trampled on almost every article of the criminal law. Money comes easily and quickly, and which cadre doesn't spend money like water on a daily basis?
Even Gin, who seems to be frugal at first glance and eats his lunch box in the car every day, actually saves time, not money.
But now, Calvados is actually worried about where to live...
If the organization had not mentioned resignation, he would have suspected that Calvados had changed jobs without his knowledge.
"Even if it's inconvenient for him to buy a house because of his status, he shouldn't be so down-to-earth." Amuro Toru always felt that something was wrong. "As a cadre with a certain reputation, shouldn't he be able to use safe houses and safe bases at will?"
"But when I think about it, it seems like I haven't asked the logistics department for a safe house for a long time... Could it be that the situation of the organization has changed during this period of time?"
The key to a safe house is safety and concealment, but for Toru Amuro, the safe house set up by the organization does not give him the slightest sense of security - unless he is working with other cadres, he usually finds a place to live by himself.
The organization was used to his lone wolf image and did not think there was anything wrong with his habit of not using safe houses. They just thought it was a daily operation of a mystic who no one could trust.
"But now, it seems I need to find a logistics support person to try a safe house." Amuro Toru touched his chin, feeling that he seemed to have a new direction for investigation.
And next to him, in the eyes of the police, it was quite normal for "Mr. Yamaguchi" to rent a house.
"So that's how it is." Officer Takagi looked through the deceased's phone and checked Calvados' testimony. "There was indeed a call around the time of death. The same number had another call record yesterday... Is this your phone?"
Calvados looked at the number he was shown and nodded.
Officer Megure came over and looked at the time on the caller ID. His eyes gradually became suspicious. "Combining the testimonies of both parties, Mrs. Izuki was killed just a few minutes after receiving this call... What did you talk about on the phone?"
Calvados looked at him with a bad feeling in his heart. He said with a stiff upper lip: "What else could it be? Didn't I tell you that I asked her why she wasn't home, and she said she had something else to do, so she asked me to go back first."
"But you didn't go back, but remained in this building." Although Inspector Megure had some good feelings for the enthusiastic citizen in front of him, he was ruthless and impartial when it came to solving cases, and he doubted everything equally.
After thinking about it carefully, Inspector Megure discovered that the behavior of "Mr. Yamaguchi" seemed a little suspicious.
