Hoshino Sora returned to the restaurant to eat with Kazuye and Xiaolan, and the two girls ate faster than usual.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Eat slowly. As for bringing food, I believe they will buy breakfast on the way." Hoshino Sora advised.
"No, once Heiji becomes serious, he will put aside other things that are not important to him. He was wearing his hat when he left, which means he is serious, so he will not buy breakfast. He must have rushed to the scene of the crime immediately." He Ye shook his head and explained.
"In that case, let's not eat here. We will buy some breakfast on the way and send it to them." Hoshino Sora immediately stuffed it into his mouth, stopped chewing, and just swallowed the steamed buns, fish, and eggs...
Seeing this, He Ye quickly persuaded: "Akong, it's not okay!"
"I'm fine..." Hoshino Sora stood up, and then thought of something, "Oh, by the way, I'll go and bring Kadowaki Benzo down first. Let's take him with us to avoid him waking up and causing confusion. run."
With that said, he ran upstairs and carried the person down. When he came down, the two girls had already finished eating.
Immediately, they rushed to the scene of the crime. As for whether they knew the way... wouldn't they just ask?
Just like that, by the time they arrived at the port beach where the crime occurred, people were already watching from a distance. On the beach, they suddenly saw two familiar figures, one large and one small, talking to the police personnel.
Hattori spotted them first, waved to them quickly, and said to a bald police officer from Fukui Prefecture: "The man my companion is carrying is the Kadowaki Benzo I told you."
"Well, leave the person to us." The bald police officer nodded and asked Kadowaki Benzo to take it from Hoshino Sora.
Perhaps due to the bumpy journey, Kadowaki Benzo finally woke up. Of course, it was inevitable to wake up angry.
"You bastard, who is dancing on my bed? Get out of here and don't pull me..."
Kadowaki Benzo's eyes were still blurry with eye mucus and he couldn't see his surroundings clearly, so he swung his arms roughly in an attempt to break away from the police officer's restraints.
But how could he, a middle-aged man who drank too much and hadn't eaten breakfast, break free from the constraints of two young police officers?
After struggling for a few times but unable to break free, Kadowaki Benzo became angry and was about to curse the person who was pulling him. Then he saw his surroundings completely and suppressed the words that came to his lips. Confused, he asked: "Police officers, why are you arresting me so early in the morning?"
"Huh, don't you know why we arrested you?" the bald police officer snorted coldly.
"I...I am a good citizen, police officer, you can't arrest me just because I drank too much, right?" Kadowaki Benzo screamed loudly.
"Stop pretending, let me ask you, did you really hit the dugong arrow?" the bald police officer stared at him and asked.
"Uh... Of course, everyone can see this." Kadowaki Benzo felt a sudden thought, but on the surface he was still holding on.
"Do you know that everyone has a registered name when they get a license plate? Just go to the temple and check, and it will be clear. Do you still want to continue to deny it?" the bald police officer said coldly.
"..." Kadowaki Benzo opened his mouth with a look of astonishment on his face. He was a little drunk at the time and really hadn't thought about it that much.
"Tell me, why did you kill Ebihara Hisumi? Was it for the dugong arrow?" the bald police officer asked loudly.
"I...I didn't kill anyone. Really, I actually picked up that number plate by the pool. There was a lifebuoy with it, but I threw the lifebuoy back..." Kadowaki Benzo explained hurriedly, "Everything I said is true. I have no reason to kill Shou Mei..."
"Where did the dugong arrow that your daughter, Ms. Saori, drew last year go?" Hattori asked suddenly and abruptly.
"This..." Kadowaki Benzo turned away, "Who are you? Why should I answer you!"
Hattori turned to the bald detective and said: "Officer, we came here after receiving a request from Miss Saori, but since we came, we haven't found anyone. According to our investigation, she died because of the missing dugong arrow. Missing, and this Mr. Kadowaki, when he was drunk yesterday, he said he had made a fortune, so..."
"Hey, don't slander me. I did sell Saori's arrows, but they are our family's belongings. You have no control over what I do with them! As for Saori, she often runs away from home, which is nothing to worry about! "Kadowaki Benzo shouted.
Later, no matter how anyone asked, he refused to admit the murder, but only admitted some things that he could not deny.
Seeing that nothing could be found during the investigation, the bald police officer asked people to take him away and said to Hattori and others: "Okay, leave the rest to us."
Hoshino Sora could finally see that this police officer seemed to have some prejudices against detectives. Even if he was a famous detective like the sleeping Kogoro, he had no intention of getting close to him or inviting help.
If it were Henggou or Shancun, they would definitely regard the uncle as a master and be willing to help him.
The bald police officer issued an eviction order and left.
"Uncle, Hattori, have you found anything?" Hoshino Sora looked somewhere, where the body had been carried away, leaving only the marked human-shaped mark.
Mouri Kogoro and Hattori took the breakfast bought by Xiaolan and Kazuha. Hattori said while eating: "When we came, the body had already been taken away. However, according to the police, the place where the body fell except Outside of the seafood, there was only a line of footprints of the deceased walking past, and then another type of footprints extended all the way to the sea and disappeared completely."
"The murderer went to sea?" Hoshino Sora blurted out.
"Not necessarily, it could also be to create suspicion. As long as you leave along the edge of the beach, the waves will wash away the traces of your passage. In the end, people will mistakenly think that the mermaid came ashore from the bottom of the sea and returned to the sea after committing the crime. This may be That’s the murderer’s plan,” Hattori said in a deep voice.
"It's a mermaid again... Why do you feel like since we arrived, there have only been murder cases related to mermaids?" Mouri Kogoro complained while eating his breakfast bread.
Hoshino Sora: "..."
Who can blame this? Your bad luck is too strong. Maybe if you hadn't come, the situation wouldn't have turned into what it is now.
Xiaolan sighed: "I feel that Miss Saori is really miserable. Her father stole her dugong arrows, and her friends who grew up together were killed one after another..."
He does not mean that. Xiaolan's casual words made Hoshino Sora exclaim: "Wait a minute, aren't the things the deceased have in common are all Miss Saori's friends?"
"Hey, isn't Miss Junhui also her friend?" Mouri Kogoro's expression couldn't help but change.
"No, Miss Junhui may be the next victim!" Hattori was shocked and ran towards the temple.
