Metropolitan Police Department.
"Well, he wears a peaked cap, has long hair, what about his face, and what are the characteristics of his eyes..." Officer Sato received Sora Hoshino and his party, held a drawing board, and asked the person involved, Ayumi.
Ayumi thought about how to describe it and what words to use to express it accurately. Then, she found that words were not enough to express it, so she chose to use actions combined with language to express it.
I saw her pulling up the corners of her eyes with her hands and saying, "That's it, eyes slanting upward..."
"Oh, it's fox eyes." Officer Sato nodded and quickly started drawing.
Soon, she finished drawing the rough lines, tapered face, fox eyes, messy long hair, and hat. So, she showed the painting to Bumi, and asked quite confidently: "How does it look like? Does it look like it?"
However, Ayumi took one look at it, shook her head and said 'It doesn't look like it', which disappointed her greatly.
Yuantai even laughed and said: "What is this painting?"
"Yes, it's worse than Yuanta's painting. It's just graffiti." Mitsuhiko agreed.
"So, where are the professional painters? There should be some in the police station." Haiyuan said calmly.
Seeing the embarrassment on Officer Sato's face, Sora Hoshino had a different opinion, "On the contrary, I think Sister Miwako perfectly drew the characteristics Ayumi mentioned. It can be said that they are exactly the same."
Conan chuckled, "Yes, apart from these characteristics, there is nothing else ordinary about it. Rather than saying this is a portrait, it is better to say that this is a design sketch for a monster mask."
"..." Officer Sato yelled with an embarrassed look on his face, "You guys are enough, are you that bad? I only tried to paint because Mr. Tomokawa, who specializes in portrait painting, took a leave of absence due to illness..."
"Haha, you can't doodle casually. You won't be able to hand it over to the investigators..." Takagi looked behind for a while, and finally couldn't hold back and laughed.
When Shiratori heard that Takagi was so unable to seize the opportunity, he couldn't even say a word of praise. It was really shameful. So, he immediately came over with a cup of coffee, took a look at Sato's painting, and immediately understood why Takagi couldn't praise it.
Good guy, really a good guy, this painting... is really horrible, it looks like a car accident scene! But, who is Shiratori? With such a good opportunity in front of him, he must win Sato's favor!
Shiratori coughed slightly and said: "Ahem, actually, Officer Sato's painting is quite good. The lines are neat and the style of painting... is intriguing. If you look carefully, this character seems to come alive. It's wonderful, it's really wonderful..."
"Pfft~" Hoshino Sora suppressed a smile. Officer Shiratori is also a talented person. He can boast of graffiti-level paintings. It's amazing, it's really amazing!
As expected, whether it was Takagi who laughed at him or Shiratori who praised him, Officer Sato felt ashamed and annoyed. He said unhappily: "Takagi, if you are capable, you can draw it yourself! And you, Shiratori, since you feel that I draw His portrait has come to life, so I’ll leave the job of finding him to you, since you already know the prisoner well.”
Takagi and Shiratori: "..."
"Hahahaha~" Hoshino Sora couldn't bear it anymore and laughed.
One was not photographed, and the other was photographed on the horse's hoof. Absolutely amazing!
"Ah? No, no, no, my painting ability is very poor, I can't do it." Takagi waved his hands hurriedly.
Shiratori ignored Hoshino Sora's joke and changed the subject in a flash, "Actually, what the child saw was not necessarily the arsonist, maybe it was just a homeless man who happened to pass by the crime scene. After all, she didn't see it with her own eyes... …”
"What, are you saying Ayumi lied?" Genta shouted dissatisfied.
"Don't underestimate us. We are a young detective team and have solved many cases. We are different from ordinary children! No criminal can escape our eyes!" Mitsuhiko shouted loudly.
Takagi wanted to say something, but Hoshino Sora beat him to it, "I think what Ayumi saw was that he couldn't commit arson. First of all, he appeared at the crime scene. Secondly, he smelled of gasoline. Finally, his dress and condition, It is only the beginning of October, and the Mid-Autumn Festival has not yet arrived. Although the weather is no longer hot, it has been sunny and has not rained in the past few days. The temperature in the city is still in the twenties. In this case, it is You're wearing a long coat and gloves. How cold is it? Are you afraid that you won't be able to cover up the heat rash?"
"So, to sum up, this person either has a mental problem or is an arsonist! If he has a mental problem, then we can't let him out! If he is really an arsonist, then we can't let him go! "
Officer Sato nodded and agreed: "Akong is right, that person is indeed suspicious!"
"By the way, Ayumi said she saw it next to a convenience store. I wonder if the nearby surveillance camera captured it?" Hoshino Sora thought of this and said immediately.
"In that case, let's go there and have a look. I happen to be going somewhere on the way." Officer Sato said with a complicated look on his face.
"Sister Miwako, what's wrong? Is something wrong? If something happens, it's the same as asking Officer Takagi or Officer Shiratori to go with us." Hoshino Sora said, "No, arson seems to be the job of the fire dad. , so it can be transferred directly to him."
"I have something to do, but it won't take too long." Officer Sato tried not to show sadness on his face, smiled and shook his head, "In addition, this is not just as simple as arson, the arsonist is also involved in A body was found near where the fourth arson case occurred. It is suspected that he was killed because he saw the arsonist or wanted to stop him."
"Uh, why wasn't it reported in the newspaper?" Hoshino Sora asked doubtfully.
"Because I'm not sure!" Officer Sato shook his head and greeted, "Let's go over and take a look."
So, everyone set off for Yotsuya. Takagi and Shiratori also followed, mainly because they were very concerned about the sadness shown by Officer Sato just now, and they always felt that there was a story.
Hoshino Sora sat in the passenger seat of Officer Sato, and the detective team was divided into two groups. Ayumi and Haihara took Officer Sato's car, and Conan and the other three took Officer Shiratori's car.
Shiratori drove behind Officer Sato and soon came to a fork in the road and stopped. This is not Yotsuya, it should be the destination that Officer Sato mentioned.
After Officer Sato pulled over, he took out the white chrysanthemums and an empty can he had prepared. He went straight to a lamppost at the intersection, placed the things in place, and put his hands together in worship.
"Someone would do this after someone died..." Hoshino Sora was shocked, "Could it be that sister Miwako's friend died in an accident here?"
"It's Officer Sato's father, Officer Masayoshi Sato! Today happens to be his death anniversary!" Shiratori suddenly remembered the matter at this time and said in a deep voice.
