Chapters 3557 and 3569 [Vermouth or Sonoko Suzuki] Requesting monthly votes ()
In Sato Miwako's mind, some tattered figures quietly appeared—the prisoners they had managed to snatch from Jiangxia with great difficulty.
Will this be another Nth time?
But unlike before, there's a police inspector at the crime scene today. If he disagrees with Jiang Xia's actions and insists on arguing...
"Sato?" Inspector Matsumoto narrowed his eyes, increasingly suspicious of his capable officer who was both distracted and sweating profusely.
He approached, about to press for answers. Just then, a voice broke in.
Officer Takagi ran back and reported loudly, "Inspector! There's no one in the security room. I asked the suspect's colleagues, but they don't know where Yoshio Sadakin went either."
"In addition, according to Yoshio Tadasu's colleagues, he did have a son who died young—someone saw him holding a photo of his son when he was drunk, muttering things like 'that damned perpetrator.'"
Inspector Megure was torn between relief and a moment of despair: "Looking at it this way, the motive is quite clear; he's probably the killer. But where did he go? Could he have already gone home?"
Officer Takagi scratched his head: "Deokjin Yoshio's car is still in the parking lot and hasn't been driven away. According to his colleagues, his home is some distance from here."
“Since the car is still here, I figured his men probably haven’t left either; maybe they went to the restroom. So I left a few people at the security room to arrest him as soon as he came back!”
Inspector Megure's expression was rather grim: "If it really was just going to the toilet, that would be fine. But since he specifically changed the shoes of the corpse, it means he knows the progress of our investigation. If he feels he's about to be exposed and wants to commit a series of crimes before being caught, things will get complicated... We can't just wait around. Take some men and search the area immediately!"
"yes!"
Officer Sato responded enthusiastically and was the first to rush out.
"There are police underground and media outside, so please don't knock on the door randomly..."
Thinking of that familiar detective, Sato Miwako sighed worriedly, then clenched her fist with fighting spirit: "No matter what, I can't let anyone see Jiang Xia hitting people. I have to be the first to find him!"
...
After a group of police officers scattered in all directions.
Ran Mouri looked at the empty passageway, glancing left and right, a look of worry gradually appearing on her face.
Conan, noticing this, asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Ran-neechan?"
Ran Mouri, recalling the conversation she had overheard between Sonoko Suzuki and Kogoro Mouri, frowned and asked, "Why hasn't Sonoko come back yet?"
Conan was startled, a bad feeling suddenly creeping into his heart: "Where did Sonoko go?"
Ran Mouri: "Sonoko just asked my dad for the car keys because she wanted to go to the restroom and put the things she bought in the car... Could it be that she had a stomachache today and took a long time to go to the toilet?"
Conan suddenly remembered something and his expression changed drastically: "I remember Sonoko-neechan was wearing platform shoes today... weren't they also platform shoes?"
Ran Mouri belatedly realized: "No wonder Sonoko seems to be a head taller than me today... Wait, platform shoes?!"
Her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly reassured herself, "It should be fine. Sonoko wasn't wearing any sexy makeup, and she wasn't driving. I... I'll go check the car!"
Conan ran over and took out his phone to dial Sonoko Suzuki's number.
“She definitely wasn’t driving, and she wasn’t wearing sexy makeup…” As he listened to the ringtone while waiting for the call to connect, Conan’s bad premonition grew stronger. “But she’s going to put something in her car. If that thug gets agitated because of this, or if he misunderstands something… things will get complicated!”
...
A few minutes ago.
Sonoko Suzuki, twirling her car keys and carrying shopping bags, strolled over to Kogoro Mouri's car.
When riding in Kogoro Mouri's car, she and Ran usually sit side by side in the back seat, so they usually put their things on the front passenger seat.
As usual, Sonoko Suzuki tried to open the passenger door, but unfortunately, a delivery truck was parked there. The massive vehicle filled the parking space, and the passenger compartment was pressed tightly against Kogoro Mouri's car, making it impossible to open the passenger door.
"Does this driver even know how to park?" Sonoko Suzuki muttered in dissatisfaction. "And these parking spaces are drawn too small. Couldn't they have been widened to the sides so that the cars could be parked more space?"
She shook her head as she walked around to the driver's side, opened the car door, then reached in, stretched out her arm, and placed the shopping bag she was carrying on the passenger seat.
At the same time, seven or eight meters away.
Ding Jinfang carefully reviewed the crime process he had just committed and assessed the chances of being exposed. While performing the superficial duties of a security guard, he continued to patrol the parking lot.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. Turning his head, he saw a young woman leaning her upper body into the driver's seat next to a car, and her feet sticking out of the car were wearing a pair of thick-soled platform shoes.
"...?"
Having just brutally killed someone, Yoshio Tadakin was filled with murderous intent upon seeing this scene of dancing on his fury point.
"One after another... How come we can't kill all these demons with their pretty faces?"
He slowly moved his hands, walked to the corner, and picked up a metal rod hidden under the car.
Just as he was about to go and uphold his own sense of justice, he suddenly noticed out of the corner of his eye that there seemed to be another person next to another car.
"?" Ding Jin Fangxiong held his breath, leaned against the pillar and peeked out, and saw a black car.
At this moment, the car door was pushed open from the inside, and a pair of legs wearing heavy leather shoes stretched out from the car and stepped on the ground.
...Dingjin Fangxiong had never seen such high men's leather shoes before; the soles looked to be at least seven or eight centimeters high.
Then, as the driver got out of the car and stood up straight, his trouser legs fell down, and the unusual feature of his shoes was quietly concealed in the fabric.
The old-fashioned Yoshio Tsunemura looked at the male waiter who elegantly stepped out of the car and thought, "...?"
Why would a man wear platform shoes? Are you crazy?!
Moreover, this material seems to make it even harder to brake than platform shoes.
Looking to the left, then to the right, a serial attacker, gripping a stick, briefly fell into deep thought.
However, he didn't hesitate for long before letting out a cold snort and turning his gaze back to Sonoko Suzuki.
"It's not because he's strong and hard to kill, but because I need to prioritize eliminating demons."
"These makeup-loving demons are best at disguising themselves as innocent and naive—killing someone in a car accident is not the most terrifying thing; what's even more terrifying is that they can whine and cry to deceive the judge and successfully exonerate themselves."
Ding Jinfang thought to himself, "My beloved son died at the hands of this kind of guy."
"but……"
After hesitating for a moment, Ding Jin Fangxiong turned back and looked hesitantly at the male waiter.
