Chapter 3378 3390 [Judy, go jump off the building]
Hattori Heiji and Conan's plan is actually very simple: to conduct a small experiment to solve the case, and let Teacher Judy play the victim and experience the fear of falling from a building.
After discussing with Conan how to harm Judy...well, after discussing the details of the experiment, Hattori Heiji returned to the living room and walked towards Jiangxia.
Conan was stunned for a moment, then quickly grabbed him and said, "If you want to test Teacher Judy, then test Teacher Judy. Why are you looking for Jiang Xia?"
Hattori Heiji said speechlessly: "This plan requires the approval of the police. You don't think that I can convince Officer Megure by myself."
As a detective, reading people's expressions is also an essential skill. During this time, it wasn't hard to spot the occasional look of disdain the fat officer gave him.
"The police in Osaka usually give me some face, but now that I'm in Tokyo, I'm afraid your inspector won't be so obedient." Hattori Heiji whispered to Conan:
"At times like this, we still have to find a local tycoon. Anyway, the case has been solved now, so I'm not afraid to talk to Jiang Xia - let Jiang Xia help convince Inspector Megure, and things will definitely go smoothly."
Conan hesitated: "But our plan is too targeted at Teacher Judy. Inspector Megure is a bit stupid and probably won't find out before the incident, but Jiang Xia will definitely see through our purpose at a glance - then how will we explain our suspicion of Teacher Judy?"
"You are the one who is confused." Hattori Heiji clicked his tongue and shook his finger. He glanced at Jiang Xia from a distance and lowered his voice even more:
"You've already noticed something's wrong with Teacher Judy, and Jiang Xia has just as much contact with her as you do, so how could he not notice it?
"Do you think Jiang Xia really just happened to pass by today? He said he was looking for a client nearby, but if that's the case, why isn't he rushing to solve the case? I remember that he was very attentive to his clients and very dedicated to his work. He wouldn't treat any of them lightly."
Conan was stunned: "You mean, Jiang Xia is also here to investigate Teacher Judy?!"
"It's very likely." Hattori Heiji whispered, "But he's not as direct as us. Judging from the situation, he must have been hiding nearby and observing secretly. Later, when he saw the crime, he couldn't help but come out."
Conan: "..." You call this kind of direct approach direct? It's clearly reckless! If you ask me, I should have followed Jiang Xia's method.
However, Hattori Heiji's statement made sense. There was indeed something strange about Teacher Judy, and Jiang Xia...did he really not notice it?
Conan thought about it and quickly sorted out his thoughts: "Jiang Xia doesn't know about the Black Organization. In his eyes, although Teacher Judy is weird, she is still an ordinary citizen after all. So he won't use too drastic methods to investigate, but will only observe from afar... which makes sense."
And Conan suddenly realized that this situation was quite good: Jiang Xia's occasional law-abiding behavior, to a certain extent, protected himself from the Black Organization.
Thinking of this, Conan no longer hesitated and nodded: "Then I'll do as you say."
Not long after, Hattori Heiji and Conan found Jiang Xia and whispered the plan they had just discussed.
As expected, Jiang Xia didn't refuse. Instead, he nodded with interest, emphasizing, "Although Teacher Judy seems to have some little secrets of her own, I think she's a good person. Those quirks may have been caused by unavoidable reasons. During your experiment, you must ensure her safety."
Conan: "..." Here we go again. Even though you know she is suspicious, you still think she is a good person... I don't think you have the same opinion about Gin.
When Conan thought that one day when they meet again, Jiang Xia might say something like "I think you are a nice person" to Gin or other members of the organization, his eyes went dark: "..." He hoped that the other party would not take this as an insult and shoot Jiang Xia out of anger.
…
Soon, with the support of enthusiastic Tokyo detectives, Hattori Heiji stood in front of Inspector Megure and told him his plan.
"Practice makes perfect." The Osaka detective put his arm around Jiang Xia's shoulder, looking like a good friend, and said to Inspector Megure:
"If we just do a small experiment and repeat what the three suspects did before the deceased fell from the building, we might be able to easily solve tonight's mystery and find the murderer."
Inspector Megure: "..."Hasn't the mystery been solved? It's just in the form of another puzzle...Brother Jiang Xia is usually very good. He will start to find the murderer after seeing all the clues, but why is he acting as a riddler tonight?
Looking at Jiang Xia, then at Hattori Heiji beside him, Inspector Megure seemed to understand something and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Hattori Heiji suddenly felt a chill on his back: "......?"
What's going on.
The script seems to be different from what he expected?
Is it true that Jiang Xia’s support is useless?
I was a little shocked, but at this moment, I saw Inspector Megure nodded reluctantly.
——Seeing that Jiang Xia didn't object, the police captain, although he was grumbling in his heart, still said for the sake of his Diamond VIP brother: "Okay."
Then he turned to his subordinates and said, "Sato, you play Shimoda Chika, Takagi plays Nakamachi Michiya, Chiba, you play Kawakami Kawasaki - is that okay?"
The last sentence was said to Hattori Heiji.
I thought that this would allow me to conduct the experiment that the Osaka kid mentioned, which I didn't know if it would be reliable or not. But Hattori Heiji pondered for a moment and said, "It's not enough. There's still one thing missing - a drunk victim."
"A drunken victim?" Inspector Megure frowned slightly. "Is it that strict? Why not just find someone else to play the role?"
"How can we be so careless!" Hattori Heiji said seriously, "Only by reconstructing the whole thing as closely as possible can we find more details. Therefore, the victim must be drunk. Otherwise, this experiment is meaningless."
"Let's do this." After saying that, without waiting for Inspector Megure to object, he had already made arrangements, "Police officers cannot drink alcohol while performing their duties, and of course the three suspects can't drink either. Jiang Xia and I are not yet 20 years old, so we can't drink either. Not to mention the little brat Conan, so in the end..."
He and Conan turned their heads and looked at Judy at the same time.
Inspector Megure and the other police officers also subconsciously turned their heads and looked over in the direction they were looking.
Teacher Judy, who was quietly yawning, waiting for Jiang Xia to solve the case, asked: "......?"
Instantly becoming the focus of countless gazes, Judy recalled what Hattori Heiji had just said, raised a finger, and pointed at herself with a forced smile: "Me?"
It would be fine if I could be anything else, but to play the victim... that doesn't sound right!
What about "try to restore it as much as possible"? When you say restoration, you don't mean to restore it to the extent that I have to jump off the 21st floor, do you?
