Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 168: Officer Obasan

The next day, Utsumi Yui returned to the office with her tired body at the Kaizuka North Police Station, and colleagues immediately greeted him curiously.

"How is it? Is the detective introduced by your classmate okay?"

"I don't know," Utsumi rubbed his sore waist, "I have been studying on the spot for a long time, but I haven't gained much. Even now, there is no news."

"No? Isn't it a well-known detective all over the country?" The colleague asked in surprise, "I heard that he is very popular in the main office."

Uchiha was exhausted enough by this case, and smiled bitterly: "I won't rely on any detective anymore. Even though that guy is a detective, he is just an adult kid... and he's still a kind of star-chaser. "

"The kind of what?"

"Anyway, I will investigate the truth myself."

The colleague laughed and looked at the busy Uchikawa: "You are still holding this case in the police station. I think you might as well find an expert."

Utsumi put down the case information and asked, "Expert? Except for the sleeping Kogoro in Tokyo, who else is better than Takasei Joshito?"

"I'm not talking about a detective, but a scientist. It should be better to find a scientist for such things as spontaneous combustion of the human body?"

"makes sense……"

Hearing this, Neihai was a little moved, and was about to ask how to find it, when the phone rang suddenly, it was Gao Cheng's call.

"It's that little detective." Uchiha looked at the screen to his colleague with a wry smile, and turned to answer the phone.

"Inland Sea Police Officer," Gao Cheng stood in the corridor of the office, "Can you take me to the scene? There are some things I want to ask clearly."

"Hi?"

...

The location of the Sakuragawa crime.

Gao Cheng's figure walked back and forth by the river, and once again investigated the scene.

This time, even the stone duck in the middle of the river was not let go. A stone duck had obvious black holes in its eyes, just like the statue on the bank and the bulletin board.

"Are these holes made by cigarette butts?"

"What?" Nei Hai was standing next to him in doubt, seeing Gao Cheng still wearing dark circles under his eyes, and said helplessly, "You have been thinking about this these two days? No, it's not good for your health if you don't take a good rest..."

"Take me to meet the residents around you."

Gao Cheng suddenly turned around and walked towards the streets first, but Nei Hai was stunned and quickly followed.

"and many more!"

"To be honest," several young people holding their children responded at the children's playground. "Everyone is relieved. They are all nasty guys. They come to make trouble every night."

"Yeah, I can't help it if I didn't listen to the police's warnings," an uncle of the shop complained. "If killing people weren't illegal, I would have killed them."

"excuse me."

Gao Cheng walked between the streets, and Kazuo Utsumi was still holding a notebook to explain.

"The rest will be asked after they go home at night, but they are almost the same. The residents here really hate the victim and their companions. If there is a murderer, it is likely to be someone nearby..."

"Are there any other useful clues? Small things are fine." Gao Cheng interrupted.

I asked a lot of people, housewives, shopkeepers... the only thing I knew was that bad group was hated by people nearby.

"What do you mean by small things?" Uchikawa said in a daze.

"Sometimes details that are difficult for ordinary people to pay attention to can often explain a lot of problems."

"In this case," Uchikawa muttered, "a little girl said that she had seen a red thread in the sky... Maybe she just read it from a fairy tale. The children's imagination is really rich."

"Red thread?" Gao Cheng thought, holding up his elbow. "If you see that girl again, please ask carefully."

"Hi, hi," Nei Hai said tiredly, "So, does the red line in the sky have anything to do with the spontaneous combustion of the human body?"

"do not know."

"do not know?!"

"However, I found a lot of information," Gao Cheng thought while walking on the street. "If this incident was a homicide, the murder weapon is likely to be a laser gun. There is no such thing as a sci-fi movie that can melt people. The lost laser gun?"

"Laser gun? Science fiction movie?" Uchiha stopped walking with an ugly expression, "What a joke! You called me here and thought you found something... What do you think of this case? Someone was killed! Not yet twenty years old..."

"Are you sympathizing with the bad guy who was killed?" Gao Cheng turned around calmly and looked at Uchikawa. "I investigated this case just to find out the truth. It doesn't mean that I am on the bad side, his life and death. It has nothing to do with me."

"what?"

"Sorry," Gao Cheng paused and shook his head slightly, "I'm just an adult kid, when I didn't say anything."

"Damn it!" In the evening, Beihai North Police Station, Inland Sea clutched his hair frantically, "That stinky kid! I just threw my sister aside!"

The colleague smiled and said, "Don't you still dislike others and say you want to investigate the truth yourself?"

"That's right, but it's easier to investigate with one more person, right?"

Utsumi took a few mouthfuls of dinner, but had no appetite, and complained to a colleague: "I just said one thing to him and asked him to investigate it carefully, so I need to drive me back? What bad life or death has nothing to do with him. , Just want to find out the truth..."

"Even a detective is only 18 years old," the colleague said with a laugh, "is it normal to hate bad things? People don't think so much like you Obasan."

"O, Obasan?!" Neihai raised eyebrows, "I'm only 28!"

"Yeah, it's 28."

"Woohoo."

...

By the banks of the Yingchuan River, as night fell, houses lit up.

"Excuse me!" Gao Cheng walked to a Jinsen house and rang the doorbell.

This case is indeed as troublesome as he imagined. Unlike other cases, the crime method has exceeded his knowledge level ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ can only be inferred by a little bit of side exploration.

A man opened the door in doubt: "You are?"

"Ah, hello, it was the Inland Sea police officer of the Beizuka North Police Station who asked me to come over," Gao Cheng asked in consultation. "Can I ask you some questions about the previous case?"

The man looked at Gao Chengdao: "I have already told your police about everything I want to say?"

"This time it's an in-depth investigation. It's a little different from before," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "Well, is it convenient to enter the house and talk?"

The man's face changed for a while, but he nodded and welcomed Gao Cheng into the house.

"Would you like something to drink?"

"Boiled water will do, thank you."

Gao Cheng stood in the room covered with tatami mats, taking advantage of the opportunity of the man to pour water, his eyes swept across every corner.

The eye-catching bookshelf and recording equipment, everything is in order and very neat.

Looking around, Gao Cheng walked to the window and opened the curtains.

This house is right next to the crime scene, with a clear view of the river.

"Huh?" Gao Cheng stepped on a pit suddenly, and lowered his head to find that the tatami on the ground had a rough mark, as if it had been rubbed hard with his feet.

"Is there any problem?" The man appeared at the door with a water glass.

"Ah," Gao Cheng regained his gaze and smiled, "I think this house is pretty good, and I have always wanted to have such a bookshelf...Are these recording equipment?"

"Well," the man glanced at the print on the tatami by the window, walked over to the table and sat down on his knees, "I'm doing a reading volunteer for those with inconvenient eyes."

"Oh? Read the volunteers aloud."

Gao Cheng looked at the full bookshelf again, and tentatively looked at the man and asked, "Are you here when the crime happened?"

The man looked away and nodded: "But because those people are making noise again, I can't read the recording aloud..." 2k reading network
