Famous Detective Conan: Eating and Waiting To Die - Chapter 75

“I heard from Officer Shiratori just now that Sato-san’s father died on the way from the ambulance to the hospital, so he had time to name the prisoner, why didn’t he say it? Don’t you think it’s strange?”

“Huh? Conan, it’s really a bit strange for you to say that. Sato thought back and said, I remember that Dad did say a few words to me in the ambulance…”

“That’s right!” Conan clapped his hands, “Just now Xiaotong accidentally said that he would surrender himself, so I think that the prisoner should at least be familiar with Officer Sato, and Officer Sato would ask him to surrender before he died, and Officer Sato also believed in his heart that he would turn himself in, so he did not say his name. The person who can make a dying policeman believe so, Sister Sato, must be a person who has a very good relationship with your father. …”

Shiratori shook his head, “Even if the scope is narrowed, there is no way to do it. The only clues at that time were the pictures captured by the monitor, the figure of the prisoner in the raincoat, and the words “Chou Silang” or “Surrender”, and the matter has already passed. It’s been eighteen years, and even if the prisoner lies, we can’t investigate anything. It’s really hard to solve this foggy case with these few things…”

“There is one more clue. Sato raised his head and looked at Shiratori. I remember there is another clue. The fourth clue is three strange katakana names written by my father in the police manual, カソォ (Kan Yiwu).”

Shiratori scratched his hair, “This is the first time I’ve heard it.”

“Of course, that’s because the police didn’t disclose the katakana on Dad’s notes, and the other police officers who cooperated with Dad’s investigation had never heard of Dad, so the police didn’t release this information, but from the father’s account before and after Looking at it, I believe it seems to be closely related to the case…”

“And I still remember that my mother and I were asked several times the meaning of these katakana names, but since I had never heard of them, I didn’t understand the meaning at all. When I was a child, I stared at I thought about these three words very carefully, if anyone can help me solve this puzzle and catch the prisoner, I am willing to do anything I can for him, and fulfill all his wishes that I can accomplish!”

“Ah…anything…” Takagi said.

“…request?” Shiratori said.

So a happy Sato in a wedding dress appeared in the minds of the two flower protectors unconsciously. . . . .

“Any wish? Can I have a thousand servings of eel rice?” Yuan Taiyu.

“Can.”

“I’m going to Dorobika Paradise,” Ayumi said.

“Can.”

“My ticket to the International Space Station,” Mitsuhiko said.

“Can.”

“I want a certain idiot to bow his head.” Haiyuan mourned.

“Okay, if he doesn’t bow his head, I beat him to bow his head.”

“Shh…” Hitomi Mori glanced at Sato secretly, wiping the unwarranted cold sweat on her forehead, “This female tyrannosaurus…”

“I want a ticket to this World Cup,” Conan said.

“Can…”

“Then what about you little guy?” Said Sato and rubbed Hitomi Mori’s hair.

“I want to restore my memory.”

“This… hehe… this elder sister can’t do it…”

“It’s Auntie,” Hitomi Mori rolled her eyes at Sato.

“Hey hey!” Sato sighed helplessly, “Looking at these little devils with embarrassment, they are really a group of extremely realistic little devils, just Haiyuan and Xiaotong are better…”

“Huh? Haiyuan, your dress is so beautiful!” Sato, who was squatting in front of the juvenile detective team, discovered that in the sunlight, the T-shirt that Haiyuan was wearing turned out to be a superposition of scales similar to snakes. clothes, and reflected a lavender light.

“Yeah! What a dazzling dress!” Hearing what Sato said, everyone turned their attention to Haibara’s clothes.

“Really?” Haiyuan narrowed his eyes with a look of disdain, “This is the worst piece of clothing I have. Today, the rest of the clothing happened to be washed, so I can only wear this one.”

“Uh…is that so??” Although Sato is a policeman, she is also a woman, so she can see the value of this dress at a glance, looking at Haibara Ai’s happy expression and completely inconsistent tone words.

Sato smiled and touched Haiyuan’s head, “It seems that this is what the idiot who you want him to bow his head gave to you.” At the end, he added in his heart, “It’s probably the little guy with white hair. Hey, I’m so old and no one has given me such beautiful clothes…”

“Hmph~” Mao Litong snorted softly, turned up the volume of the headset, and closed her eyes to listen to the music. . . .

“Uh…” Conan glanced at the two guys, if he couldn’t see the problem, he wouldn’t be Kudo Shinichi, “I didn’t expect that, this bastard… This guy Xiaotong looks stupid. Stupid, it turned out to be like this… so…” After thinking about it for a long time, Conan’s poor emotional intelligence could not find a word to describe Hitomi Maori, but he glanced at the happy face of Hui Yuan, “It is estimated that Haibara-san has already been bribed by this dress…”

“Is it here?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“Haha, as I get older, my memory is not very good.”

Hearing the chatter, Ayumi turned her head and saw that there were a few people who had also put flowers in the place where Sato had just put them, “Look, Sister Sato, someone is also putting flowers there!

Sato looked up, “Oh, that’s my father’s friend, I’ll go say hello to them…”

“Hi! Long time no see, everyone!”

“Huh? Could it be Miwako? You’ve grown up!”

“Miwako?” Takagi was a little surprised when he walked behind Sato, “Miss Sato, do you know each other?”

“Idiot, didn’t I say it just now!” Sato glanced back at Takagi, “They were friends of Dad’s baseball team in high school, forget it, let me introduce you, this uncle with glasses is my dad’s best partner. Mr. Fujii, this hook-nosed uncle is the pitcher Mr. Saruto Hideyoshi, this is Mr. Shuji Shikano who has super strong arms and super fast feet, this fat uncle is the trustworthy fourth Mr. Homano pig, The last one is the beautiful manager of the team, Miss Toriko.”

“Stop laughing at me, she’s already a fifty-year-old old woman…”

“However, why are you two together today?”

“Oh, I haven’t seen you for a long time, I want to get together for a drink,” Saruto Hideyoshi said with emotion, “And before that, I want to say hello to Captain Sato, let’s have a look today!” He put the flower in his hand on the At the crossroads, “I really can’t think of it, things are different. Haha,” Saruto Hideo shook his head, “People like to sigh when they are old, don’t talk, don’t talk, then let’s go. It’s still the old hotel, You can also sit down when you have time…”

“Okay. Bye bye..”

“Jingling!” Shiratori took out the phone from his pocket, “Hey, I’m Shiratori! What? Officer Megumi, now? Our location? We are now on the 4th Street of Cuphu, and we found a suspicious arsonist like an arsonist. figure?”

“Yes, the location is on Shinagawa 6th Street. A man suddenly ran away during the inspection. He is currently being pursued. His features are long hair, a hat, and a long gray coat. I passed it on to you before. The portraits are very similar, and the location is very close to you, so please ask Sato to watch the group of children, and you and Takagi will immediately go to the scene to support!”

“Hi!”

“That’s what happened,” Shiratori then told everyone the content of the phone call, “The situation is urgent, these little devils will ask you to Sato! Let’s go, Takagi!”

Shiratori, who got into the car, had put the siren on the roof of the car, “Huh? Where are my handcuffs?” . .

“Hey!” Shiratori in the car urged, “Takagi, get in the car quickly, what are you dawdling about?”

“Handcuffs… I forgot to put the handcuffs on the table,” Takagi smiled apologetically.

“Really…” Shiratori sighed helplessly, “It’s always lost, forget it, there’s only one suspect anyway, just use mine, get in the car quickly!!”

“Hi!!”

“Hey, Takagi, is it really okay not to wear handcuffs?”

“Haha, it’s alright,” Takagi waved his hand, “don’t worry, Miss Sato, there is only one prisoner, anyway, Shiratori is fine, and I read the astrology column in the magazine, today is my super lucky day. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t wear handcuffs…” Squeak! Sato’s heart shrank suddenly! “Lucky day? Handcuffs?” A flood of memories poured out. . . . . . . .

“Dad?” Sato couldn’t help recalling the incident back then, “Dad said the same thing before he left…”

Hitomi Mori looked up at Sato in surprise, “What’s wrong, Auntie? Why did she get so distracted with just one sentence?”

Haibara Ai pouted, and following Hitomi Mao’s gaze, she saw Sato with a dazed face, “It is estimated that a certain sentence or action just now stimulated her and reminded her of some of the bad things she had done before. memory…”

“Really?” Hitomi Mauri chuckled a few times, “It seems that this kind of thing happens to someone often…”

“Humph…..”

“Dad…you have to be careful…don’t worry…today is dad’s lucky day…mom, dad forgot to put handcuffs…what? My husband was hit by a truck?… Why does my father do this, why does a father who fights for justice do this… Silly child, the so-called justice is… just…”

“Miss Sato!! Miss Sato!!” Takagi called out to Sato, who was suddenly dumbfounded, “If it’s okay, let’s go first, and those little guys will ask you.” Takagi also got in. vehicle. . .

“Wait, Takagi.” Sato thought for a while, and took out a pair of rusty handcuffs from his pocket, “I lent you this, my pair of handcuffs is broken, so I temporarily use my father’s handcuffs. That pair, I’m lending it to you now…”

“Do I still need to carry a pistol and handcuffs to arrest the arsonist?” After watching Takagi and the others leave, Haibara turned to look at Sato, “And the ones who sent Officer Takagi and the others were still from the Criminal Investigation Division.”

“Oh, that’s because the body that was stabbed to death was found at the arson scene. Although there is no conclusive evidence that it was done by the arsonist, the criminal police will be dispatched for the sake of safety, so please don’t leave my side! Go! Well, let’s also go to the place Ayumi said…”

The fourth arson at Shinagawa train station

“Hey, Megumi Police Department, I’m Shiratori, we’ve arrived at Shinagawa Station, the suspect on the run has been arrested, but it’s not the same as the face on the portrait, I guess it’s not the arsonist you’re chasing, he’s just a thief …”

Sitting on the public chair, Takagi loosened the button of the shirt on his neck, “This guy can really run.” Takagi, who complained a few words, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and subconsciously looked up at the stop sign.

“Huh?” Looking at the katakana marked under the text on the sign, Takagi clapped his hands! “That’s right, it turned out to be so, it turned out to be so, I have already thought of the meaning of the fourth clue!”

Takagi waved his arms excitedly, “I’m really lucky today, I have to tell Officer Sato about this matter and tell her the meaning of those katakana names!” So he imagined Sato in a wedding dress in his mind. Takagi, trembling a little, took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Sato.

“Takagi~~” After hanging up Meguro’s phone, Shiratori sighed when he saw Takagi dancing on the chair, “This guy… Hey! Who are you calling?”

“No… No, haha, I’ll check the time, by the way, my stomach is uncomfortable, I’ll go to the bathroom!” Takagi covered his stomach and ran in the direction of the bathroom. . . Shiratori looked up at the sign at Shinagawa Station, and shook his head for unknown reasons. . . .

“Yes, that’s right here, Ayumi pointed to the Masked Rider vending machine. When I got the Masked Rider Gacha, a strange uncle suddenly came out from there…”

Sato, who was recording Ayumi’s confession, heard his phone ring suddenly, “Hey, hello, I’m Sato, ah, Takagi, what’s the matter? What? Sato’s face tightened, you know eighteen years ago Who is the murderer?”

“Yes, according to my reasoning, don’t be surprised when you hear it!” Takagi, who was hiding in a corner, said excitedly, “The prisoner is one of the four people we met this morning, according to My reasoning, when your father shouted, was indeed to surrender, Conan’s reasoning is correct, this person is…”

“Ah…” Takagi let out a scream and fell to the ground.

A man with a stone in his hand stood beside Takagi, who was lying on the ground, glanced at the phone that had fallen to the side, and hung up the phone after throwing away the stone. .

“Takagi? Takagi?” Hearing Takagi’s screams, Sato hurriedly shouted to the phone, but with a beep, the phone was hung up!

“Damn,” Sato, who had not come out of the painful memories of the afternoon, stared at the phone that was hung up in a little panic, “Shiratori? By the way, Shiratori should be around there!”

“Hey, I’m Shiratori, ah~www.mtlnovel.com~ Officer Sato, what’s the matter? Takagi? He said just now that he went to the toilet, what? Maybe Takagi was attacked?”

“Yes, just when I was on the phone with me, I heard Takagi’s screams, and the phone was hung up! It’s very likely that the other party is the arsonist, be careful!”

“Well, I see, I will notify the Mumu Police Department immediately.”

“Auntie, when Officer Takagi wanted to say who the prisoner was 18 years ago on the phone just now, he was attacked by surprise. The person who attacked him should be the prisoner from 18 years ago, why are you talking to Officer Shiratori? Said he was an arsonist…”

Sato shook his head, “It shouldn’t be. That incident has expired three years ago. The prisoner would not be so stupid to attack the police. Besides, Takagi’s inference is not necessarily correct…”

“But, Sister Sato, I remember Officer Takagi said that the murderer was one of the four people we saw during the day. Where was the pub where the four people we met at that time went to?” Conan asked.

“Oh, the name of that pub is Nanya, and it’s located in front of Shinagawa Station…” Sato seemed to have thought of something here, and looked at Conan with a look of surprise, “No way… Could it be?”

“That’s right, if Officer Takagi was on the phone just now and the murderer happened to overhear it, so he attacked Officer Takagi in an attempt to silence him, it’s not impossible.”

Hearing Conan’s reasoning, Sato was a little shocked, “Anyway… Anyway, I’ll go to Shimo-Shinagawa Station, everyone take the train home first, and then go to the main hall tomorrow to talk about the confession.”

“But,” Haibara raised the corner of his mouth, “The person who attacked Officer Takagi may also be an arsonist, so should you bring your only witness, Ayumi?”
