Chapter 3409 3421 [Detective Huiyuan Ai]
"I'm sure it was that shameless fellow who killed my brother." The long-haired man clenched his fist silently. "So from then on, I made up my mind - I must kill him to comfort my brother's soul in heaven!"
Jiang Xia took a look at his clothes and asked, "Is this the contestant your brother likes?"
"Yes." The long-haired man grabbed the hem of his shirt and looked down. "Every time my brother goes to watch the Nova team play, he wears the same No. 9 jersey as Higo. This shirt is also his... I didn't expect that in the end, my plan would be ruined by this."
"But on the other hand, maybe this is my brother's last act of protection for me - if I wear this jersey to the stadium and the Nova fans see me and point it out, I won't be able to kill people as planned.
"It's just a pity that my hair is too long and it blocks the letters and numbers on the back... Haha, I really let my brother down with this jersey."
…
Under the complicated gaze of the crowd, the fake fan who was seeking revenge for his brother was put into a police car and taken to the police station.
A murder case that occurred on a crowded tram and would have kept ordinary police busy for weeks with little prospect of resolution was resolved so easily.
Inspector Megure breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the dark sky and waved his hand generously, "Takagi, find someone to send these kids back."
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Xia again. For the three elementary school students of the Junior Detective Team, it was time to go home. But for Mao Lilan and Jiang Xia, it was not too late.
So Inspector Megure asked kindly: "Are you going home, or are you going somewhere else to play?"
Mao Lilan looked at her watch and found that it was too late to go to the suburbs and she could not catch the return bus.
And just now, I think I ran into Mr. Arata. If I remember correctly, this school doctor seems to often appear with Teacher Judy. The two of them might have a close relationship in private. If I continue investigating, and Dr. Arata mentions this to Teacher Judy, I'm afraid there's a risk of being exposed.
Thinking of this, the only remaining female high school student could only sigh and whispered to Jiang Xia, "Why don't we go another day?"
As she spoke, she remembered something: "By the way, where is Dr. Shinichi?"
A young police officer said, "As for the doctor, he had been watching from the corner. After he found out the case was solved, he left."
Inspector Megure felt a pang of regret: "Why is this new brother so introverted? He didn't even say goodbye before leaving." But it's not a big deal. We are all in Tokyo together, and there is a chance to meet again in the future.
…
High school and elementary school students who were planning to go home followed the police out of the station and prepared to board the bus.
The three children didn't know that Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan had also come out. They were walking in front and chattering.
Ayumi Yoshida even called Haibara Ai and told her what had just happened: Although the email had been sent, she had not told Ai the follow-up yet, and the reasoning was so long that it was almost dawn by the time she finished typing.
However, when the call was connected and she was about to tell Haibara Ai about the follow-up situation, Yoshida Ayumi found that she seemed to have almost forgotten the content of the reasoning.
"..." After an awkward moment, the elementary school student with a bad memory scratched his cheek and had to bring up another matter, "Xiao Ai, how is your cold?"
Perhaps having received a good answer, Yoshida Ayumi suddenly brightened up: "Then we can go to the tennis tournament the day after tomorrow together! ...Huh? Did you forget, it's the Youth Cup that will be held soon at the Prefectural Comprehensive Sports Park? We made it to the finals!"
Mao Lilan was originally looking at the cute child with a smile, but when she heard this, she stopped in her tracks.
Jiang Xia glanced at her: "What's wrong?"
"..." Mao Lilan lowered her voice, "I remember the place that Teacher Judy often went to. It's near the County Comprehensive Sports Park!"
There are no landmark buildings in that suburb. Every time you zoom in on the map, the closest one is this park, so Mao Lilan is impressed by it.
"Teacher Judy has been going there these days, and now, the children are about to go there too..." Mao Lilan thought of Conan who had walked out of Teacher Judy's house not long ago, and was shocked. "Could it be that she will not only attack Conan, but also other children?!"
Jiang Xia was shocked along with her, and then comforted her, "If that's the case, then things are actually simple. We just need to follow these kids and we'll know what she wants to do."
"Yes!" Mao Lilan nodded vigorously, her belief in saving innocent children burning.
Perhaps noticing her burning gaze, Yoshida Ayumi turned her head as if she had sensed something.
The elementary school student was startled when she suddenly met Mao Li Ran's eyes. She was stunned for a moment and asked carefully: "Sister Xiaolan, what's wrong with you?"... Her eyes suddenly became so scary, completely different from her usual look!
Mao Lilan quickly smiled and said, "I'll go with you to that tennis match. I've loved tennis since I was a child!"
"Sure." Yoshida Ayumi breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be just because of this. She nodded, "Then I'll call you before we leave."
After a pause, she suddenly remembered something and looked carefully to the side: "Brother Jiang Xia, you, you also..."
"I'll see." Jiang Xia knew exactly what she wanted to ask. "If you don't have any commissions that day, I'll go with you."
Yoshida Ayumi and the other two children who pricked up their ears to eavesdrop: "..."
Oh, heaven! Please grant Brother Jiang Xia an important commission so that he can't go to the tennis match!
The three children began to pray devoutly in their hearts.
…
The police skillfully sent these familiar witnesses home.
Jiang Xia entered the house and had just poured a glass of water when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
I walked over and opened the door, and saw that it was Haibara Ai.
This mini scientist seemed to have a lot of questions in her mind. But in the end, she just asked cautiously, "Could that tennis match Ayumi mentioned be related to your foreign teacher?"
Jiang Xia poured her a glass of water as well: "Why do you say that?"
Ai Huihara: "When Ayumi mentioned the tennis match, Ms. Maori's reaction was too abrupt, unlike her usual personality. And I only saw her like this recently when she was investigating Teacher Judy."
Jiang Xia smiled and skillfully handed over a business card: "It seems that you also have the talent to be a detective."
Huiyuan Ai looked at the new business card, a new design she had never seen before, and put it away with some reluctance. The tension in her heart suddenly dissipated a little: No matter what, at least from the outside, Jiang Xia is no different from before, for example...
I still like to recruit people to be detectives.
