Chapter 661: Share the Pot and Reputation
When Shenbao Daxiong mentioned the "mysterious man", he couldn't help but feel scared:
“He asked me if I wanted to join his killing game and become the second person to die last night. He also planned to torture me until I agreed. Fortunately, I refused to give in or agree. Otherwise, I would be dead now!
"And I saw him in the bathroom just now. He must still be around here and hasn't run far! Go catch him! He's the mastermind here!"
However, this time, the police's reaction was completely different from the last time they heard these words.
Shancuncao has also recovered from the "distress in the haunted house", and his inextinguishable spirit of questioning has grown stronger.
He stared at Shenbao Daxiong with contempt, as if he were a fool, and snorted coldly:
"Do you need to emphasize the existence of the 'mysterious man'? If he hadn't knocked you out and thrown you into the corridor at the door, you would have successfully attacked the police and escaped without any worries. Haha, and if that person was really a pervert, how could you still be alive today? According to my reasoning, the truth must be this -
"After you committed the crime last night, you tried to escape, but were discovered by a mysterious man who bravely stepped forward to save others. He chased you all the way to the western-style house in the mountains. I've been to that western-style house, and it's very hidden. Late at night, a guest who is not familiar with the area would have no chance of finding it in the dark forest. So you must have hidden yourself there, and then the mysterious hero chased you in and beat you up.
"As for why he didn't call the police. Ahem, in fact, there are many unsung heroes in our society. They are like Kamen Ultraman, who like to do good deeds without leaving a name..."
During the first part, others were still listening attentively.
As Yamamura So's words became more and more outrageous, a group of police officers from Gunma Prefecture skillfully ignored him and began to communicate in low voices.
Then suddenly the blind spot was discovered.
The detective looked at Shenbao Daxiong and tapped the table twice with his pen:
"You've been talking for so long, but you've never mentioned what the 'mysterious man' looks like - what are his characteristics?"
Judging from the situations when the mysterious man appeared twice, it was indeed as Inspector Yamamura said, he seemed to be acting bravely.
But now, the missing "front fallen Jizo" has not been found. And one more witness will make it easier to understand the whole story of the case. If the mysterious man is in the hotel and can be found, it is better to try to find him.
Hearing the police's questions, Shenbao Daxiong hesitated.
Although after the police find the mysterious man, they will inevitably have to confront him to see who is lying.
But with the police surrounding him, the mysterious man couldn't hit him, so he just had to be thick-skinned. Anyway, no one had any evidence about what happened last night.
On the contrary, if the mysterious man was not found and was still wandering around, then even if he escaped from prison in the future and happened to run into the mysterious man for the third time, who knew whether he would be killed by him.
In short, the best case scenario is that the police catch the mysterious man and find out the flaws based on the clues he provides.
——Shenbao Daxiong clearly remembered the scenes of these two encounters. He always felt that the mysterious man's words and the means he used to torture people were completely that of a desperado. Maybe there was really a series of bloody cases behind that man. In this way, once the mysterious man fell into the hands of the police, it would be difficult for him to leave.
…
So now, facing the police's question "What does the mysterious man look like?", Shenbao Daxiong did not hesitate about whether to answer or not.
He just didn't see it clearly.
——When he first encountered the mysterious man, he was put in a sack and couldn't see anything.
The second time, he was put in an opaque cleaning bag. It was unknown how long the cleaning bag had been there, and there was a handful of dust inside. After he opened his eyes, they were still misty and his vision was blurred.
Fortunately, I could see the general outline.
Shenbao Daxiong tried hard to recall the appearance of the mysterious man: "He was a man, quite tall, with a high hairline. He had a buzz cut, wore glasses... Oh, and had a disgusting beard."
Toru Amuro: "..."
…Why does it sound more familiar the more I listen to it?
Wait, this is definitely Yuya Kazami with a fake beard.
I was so lazy that I didn’t wear a wig, and someone saw me…
I was making some notes in my mind when I suddenly became aware of a hidden gaze.
When Toru Amuro lowered his head, he saw Conan looking at his hair suspiciously, as if he wanted to observe his hairline, but he couldn't see it clearly because of the loose hair.
Toru Amuro: "..."
For a moment, he wanted to casually lift the hair on his forehead to show that his hairline was healthy and not as dangerous as Fumi's.
But on second thought, this is too childish. It's okay for Jiang Xia to do this. I am a calm and steady public security officer...
So in the end I just pretended I didn’t see it.
Speaking of Kazami...
Toru Amuro suddenly remembered that his cell phone vibrated a few minutes ago.
But Conan was staring at him all the time, and after his phone vibrated, there was no second reminder email after a few seconds, which meant that the matter was not urgent, so Toru Amuro did not check it immediately.
However, now it seems that the message I just received may be related to Shenbao Daxiong and that mysterious person...
Amuro Toru glanced at Conan who was staring at him, and didn't want to make a big fuss with the child.
So he thought for a moment, went to pour a glass of water, and then came back holding the glass.
But this time, Toru Amuro did not walk to his original position, but stopped near Ran Mouri.
Then he drank some water, took out his cell phone, and browsed the web casually with a frown.
After watching for a few seconds, a surprised voice suddenly came from the side: "Conan? Don't make trouble!"
Turning his head, he saw Conan secretly climbing to the high point behind him, trying to peek at his phone screen. Unfortunately, he was caught by Mao Lilan, who took him down and held him in her hand.
The mysterious naughty child was severely punished. Toru Amuro took a sip of water leisurely, then exited the webpage and concentrated on checking his emails.
Xiaobai leaned on his shoulder, stuck his head out, and looked around leisurely like him.
…
The new email was sent by Yuya Kazami, a few minutes ago.
When he clicked on it and saw the content, Toru Amuro's eyes paused slightly.
The email reads:
[Just now, after I followed him, I heard a fall in the bathroom. When I went in, I saw Shinbao Daxiong and two policemen lying on the ground, and Kurosawa was sitting by the window. He saw me come in, said hello, and jumped down. I wanted to chase him, but was attacked by Shinbao Daxiong, which delayed me. So I knocked Shinbao unconscious first and sent him to the police]
Toru Amuro: "..." Kurosawa?
When he mentioned this last name, two people popped into his mind at the same time.
One of them is the busy Gin, and the other is Jinpei Matsuda who is a few years younger.
