For a moment, Hattori Heiji suddenly realized that if Shiraishi and Numabuchi Kiichiro were in the same group, everything could be easily explained.

- For example, when Shiraishi was chased, why didn't he shout and ask for help.

Another example is that after so many police officers and police dogs searched for a day, the search area was so large that no one or his body was found.

However, in the final analysis, this is only an unreliable assumption.

On the way, Hattori Heiji asked Maurilan, and learned that Shiraishi had been in Tokyo all the time. He just arrived in Osaka the day before yesterday, and he went on a non-stop trip to Sherlock Holmes.

In other words, Shiraishi had no time or motivation to contact Kiichiro Numabuchi.

And if he was caught up and threatened by Kiichiro Numabuchi, he was forced to cooperate with the crime... This contradicted the situation in which he did not shout loudly.

Moreover, Shiraishi does not carry a voice changer with him, and his mobile phone has also been handed over to the owner of Kanaya. Numabuchi Kiichiro wants to get these through Shiraishi, so he can only buy it for himself in the city.

If you let Shiraishi go by himself, Shiraishi can take the opportunity to escape and call the police.

And if Numabuchi Kiichiro goes to him with a knife... The photo of Numabuchi Kiichiro has just been posted all over the streets of Osaka. I am afraid that the moment he appears, the public will notice him and call the police.

From this point of view, the accomplice of Numabuchi Kiichiro must not be a passerby he **** at random, but offered help to him voluntarily.

Therefore, Shiraishi, who came from Tokyo, has no criminal record at all, and is said to be a good man, can be directly ruled out.

As for those doubts... Maybe it's just like the kid's analysis, that Shiraishi was lucky to stop a car on the road, or got lost in a mountain home.

Hattori quickly abandoned this speculation.

Detectives, when encountering a case, it seems very unremarkable if you don't quickly make up ten and eight guesses.

Among so many speculations, often only one is correct, and the others must be ruled out. Hattori Heiji has long been accustomed to rule out.

He quickly put aside his speculations about Shiraishi.

What is more important now is to understand the motives of Numbuchi Kiichiro's murder and to protect other potential victims.

Last time, the people killed by Numbuchi Kiichiro were all passers-by wearing black clothes.

The victims this time are of various types, the only thing that is the same is that they all had their wallets nailed to their chests.

When it comes to wallets, money is associated with financial disputes. But the money in the wallet was not taken away.

Hattori Heiji thought as he went downstairs and returned to the corpse.

At this time, he suddenly felt that one of the onlookers had a strange reaction.

He quickly locked on to the target, and saw a thin long-haired woman staring at Ye Anheren's corpse. Unlike the other onlookers who were nervous and excited, she looked very panicked.

...that's not the way passersby should react.

Hattori Heiji felt that this person must know something.

He walked over to talk to him, but as soon as he took a step, the other party shivered and turned around and ran.

After rushing out of the crowd, Gangqi Chengjiang got into his car and drove away quickly.

Conan chased after Hattori Heiji and ate a look of exhaustion.

He is relatively small and does not have the ability to see Okachi Chengjiang in the crowd. Although I don't know what happened, people who suddenly run away at this time have some problems.

With that in mind, Conan resolutely wrote down the license plate number.

Failing to catch the murderer nearby, several people could only go to the police station first, and silently ponder over this suspicious murder on the way.

…

At the police station, Sakata Yusuke communicated with his colleagues and brought new clues to Hattori Heiji.

—Someone discovered a tape of interviews from the past, in which Kento Toju, Kazuto Noan appeared at the same time.

One of the two deceased was the secretary of the Gosi Councillor and the other was his driver.

Judging from the contents of this videotape, the police felt that Senator Goji might have something to do with this matter, so from the people who arrested Kiichiro Numbuchi, a few old detectives were selected to visit the Senator.

Hattori Heiji also wanted to join in the fun. Although this congressman is notorious for hating the police, if he is lucky, he happens to meet him on the road.

Sakata Yusuke is more down-to-earth than Hattori Heiji. He knows that he will never see the Councilor of Goji if he just passes by.

Hattori Heiji had to be guided to think of the driver's license in his wallet, and then he went to the driving training class 20 years ago, and then passed the drunk driving accident 20 years ago, and thought of the hidden details of the accident. Using this to threaten the Councilor of Koji, the councilor has only Might put them in the door.

However, there is one more Okachi Chengjiang to deal with before contacting the Goji Senator.

By the way, there is that Numbuchi Kiichiro who has disappeared.

Numbuchi Kiichiro is okay, he is a fugitive with mental problems and has been sentenced to death. As long as he handles it properly, there will be no major problems.

Let’s focus on Okachi Chengjiang first.

Hattori Heiji said that he was going to visit Senator Goji, and of course Yusuke Sakata would send him there.

Hattori Heiji often helped the police solve cases, and he was the son of his immediate boss. He also often used police officers as coolies. No one felt that this was wrong.

The police car was smashed by the body just now~lightnovelpub.net~ and can't be driven again.

Sakata Yusuke rented a car and drove with Hattori Heiji... There was also an elementary school student who had been following Hattori Heiji for some reason, and a beautiful high school girl to the Goji Senator's house.

When there was a traffic jam on the road, Sakata Yusuke deliberately brought up Okachi Chengjiang.

He acted as if he had just remembered, and said that he found out the woman's address and phone number from Gang Qi Chengjiang's license plate number.

The address is right on the way. Heiji Hattori remembered the look of that woman, and thought that she might drop by her house to have a look.

Sakata Yusuke called and asked if Okaqi Chengjiang was at home.

Okazaki Chengjiang was indeed at home, and he was terrified—on the radio, the news of the fall of Ye An and people's bodies was being broadcast.

Suddenly receiving a call from the police, her eyes lit up, remembering that she actually had a way to call the police.

She used to be a thief with a guilty conscience and hide from the police.

But now that I think about it, the prosecution period for the case has long since passed. During this period, she has always abided by the law and has never committed a crime, so she doesn't need to go to jail because of that dead person.

Tell the truth. It's better to be watched with condemnation by the police than to be killed!

She shouted for help: "I'll tell you all about the past! Come and pick me up to the police station! Please, come quickly, or I'll be killed too!"

"Calm down." Sakata Yusuke tried his best to persuade in a calm tone, "We'll go there right away, lock the door first, and don't let anyone in."

Hattori Heiji and Conan were all listening beside Sakata Yusuke's head.

Mao Lilan didn't get too close, but also pricked up his ears nervously.

At this time, Hattori Heiji glanced at the rearview mirror inadvertently, and was stunned for a moment: "Wait, the Xidu Apartment has passed!"
