"Since Officer Uehara's guess is so accurate, why don't you guess who would need such a powerful bomb?"
After a brief moment of daze, the blond man raised his head slightly as the secret in his heart was poked. The ferocious look that appeared in the corner of his eyes tore apart the repentant coat like an animal's claws, and the almost mocking tone made Miwako Sato frown at the side——
"Mr. Ikeda, if you could—"
"No, I've already been arrested, why should I think about those people outside?" Ikeda turned to look at Miwako Sato and grinned, his smile full of chilling: "Isn't it better to wait and watch the fireworks? Or Officer Sato, you? Can you convince the judge to release me in court?”
If he hadn't encountered that strange boy named Edogawa Conan, the entire Shinkansen carriage would have been destroyed in the explosion. Ikeda Jin didn't think that he would have any possibility of overturning the case after being stolen.
Both the left and the right are in jail, so do you still have to choose?
"I still hope you will seriously consider cooperating with the police. I can apply to reduce your sentence as appropriate."
Miwako Sato put down her ballpoint pen and crossed her arms across her chest. Her sharp eyes looked directly at the prisoner who said harsh words: "You must have a lot of money in your overseas bank account, and I think you don't want it all to be embezzled by the bank manager." Already?
"I can give you time to think about it, and think about whether you are willing to go to jail for the rest of your life, and whether you are willing to let your savings, which you have worked hard for most of your life, be used by a stranger far away across the ocean."
The murderous Miwako Sato closed her notebook and glanced at Katsumi Uehara, who was still sitting on the table. The latter suddenly got the idea, moved his butt off the table and jumped up and down a few times: "You'd better pray. Your little brother can be as tough as you, otherwise..."
Uehara Katsuki, who paused for a moment, patted the prisoner's shoulder twice at the end, leaving a threat that made his face look uncertain - "Actually, one tainted witness is enough."
After closing the door of the interrogation room, Sato Miwako stood by the window and stared inside through the one-way glass for a while without looking back: "Uehara, what do you think?"
"He is a veteran and is familiar with all kinds of interrogation routines. Of course, he is also ruthless." Katsuki Uehara took out a box of chewing gum from his suit pocket, poured two of them into his mouth and chewed them. He shook his head and felt a little bit. Tricky: "It's very difficult to pry open his mouth in a short time."
Being able to kill a whole carriage of people is so easy. Generally speaking, this type of prisoner has a very strong psychological quality. Unless the police can find the weak points in his character defense, it is basically impossible to pry open such a person's mouth.
"Unless, we can trace his account."
Sato Miwako turned sideways and looked directly at her partner: "As you said, he even dared to ask for 100 million yen when selling gold. If we can trace the fund transactions in his account... "
"The truth is indeed true, but... although it may be a bit rude to say this, we don't have people in the third line who can do this kind of work."
Katsuki Uehara, who blew his mind, obviously didn't have much confidence in the technical work within the third series. He estimated that he would still have to go to the next door to call someone for this job.
But this point...
The place next door is probably overcrowded.
Miwako Sato had obviously thought of this as well, biting her lips and thinking, while showing a little helplessness on her brows.
"Sato? Uehara? Why are you two here?"
In the room at the corner at the end of the corridor, Shiratori Rensaburo and Takagi Wataru, who had also finished their interrogation, saw Katsumi Uehara and Miwako Sato chatting against the wall as soon as they went out, and they felt a little curious.
"There was an explosion on the Shinkansen. The prisoner was brought back. Uehara and I are interrogating." Miwako Sato, who rubbed her brows, waved her hand and briefly explained the whole story. Shiratori and Takagi both heard this. They were looking at each other.
An elementary school student who can break the glass of a Shinkansen carriage with one kick?
They have never seen this before.
"Where's the kid?"
"The Megure Police Department is taking notes. The child's guardian is Moori Kogoro."
Sato Miwako pointed to a room not far away and turned to look at Shiratori: "Where are you? How are you?"
Hearing this, Shiratori Rensaburo suddenly smiled bitterly: "There is still no big progress. The only good news is that no new dead people have appeared. I don't know if the murderer has killed the person he wanted to kill.
"So we are currently taking the time to investigate all the people who had any relationship with the seven deceased. If no new deceased appear in the future, then the murderer must be hiding in this area."
Using random killings to cover up real targeted killings is a bit troublesome to implement, but it is definitely feasible.
"What about you? We've been arrested. Have you heard the results of the trial?"
"No."
Uehara Katsuki pressed his head against the wall, chewed gum and sighed, looking straight at the ceiling: "Not only no, that guy seems to have sold out a batch of bombs, so Sato and I's main goal now is Find the buyer of the bomb.”
"What?"
……………………………………………………
"Are you sure?"
Search the third department and department head's office.
Mumu Shisan carefully studied the notes in his hand for a while, then raised his eyes to look at the two subordinates standing in front of his desk.
"Police department, the prisoner admitted this, but refused to disclose the information about the buyer of the bomb." Sato Miwako took a step forward, reached out and took the notebook and pen handed back by her boss, and said in a deep voice.
"Did he say how many bombs were sold?"
"No."
"..."
Mumu Shisan leaned back on the chair slightly tiredly, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.
He was very tired.
There was a serial murder case that has not yet been discovered, and later there was a transaction involving the sale of military-grade bombs. Bringing one of these two items together is a big deal for the three series, but now they are combined.
"Sato, you are solely responsible for this bomb case. You must find the buyer of the bomb for me."
After pondering for a while, Mu Mu Shisan opened his eyes to calm down the thoughts in his mind and said solemnly: "Once such a military-grade bomb explodes, it will cause immeasurable losses and casualties. It is best to find it before it explodes."
"I understand, police department." Miwako Sato saluted seriously after receiving the order.
"Uehara-kun."
"Police department." Uehara Katsumi, who was still wondering why Sato was responsible for the bombing and had nothing to do with him, heard his name and nodded in response.
"Regarding the case on Yueying Island, the prosecutor found a problem that requires you to go over and help solve it. Thank you for your hard work."
"Problem? What problem? Is there something wrong with my closing report?"
Hearing this, Katsuki Uehara was a little confused.
Is it possible that the prosecutor is illiterate? Or blind?
"Police department, which prosecutor is in charge of the Moon Shadow Island case?"
"Miss Reiko Kujo from the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office."
"..."
The corners of Katsuki Uehara's mouth and eyes twitched, and a lot of complaints came to his mouth and he suppressed them.
The trump card of the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office, that's fine.
If Ace says there is a problem, then there really is a problem.
"Okay, if you have anything to say, just scold me. It's uncomfortable to hold it in your heart."
Coming out of Megure's office, Sato Miwako, who was obviously holding back a smile in her eyes, arched her eyebrows and turned her head funny to look at her partner with puzzled eyes.
"I'm not that kind of person, don't mislead me." Katsuki Uehara rolled his eyes: "Then the closing report was polished and revised by you."
"Correction, I polished it based on your original one. I didn't change the structure. Maybe you didn't submit some evidence chain."
Miwako Sato, who smiled and patted her partner on the shoulder, turned around and left: "Okay, you can revise it slowly. Miss Kujo is famous for being strict. I hope you won't be pushed to the point of swearing and losing your temper. I should go." Looking for clues.”
"..."
Katsuki Uehara bared her teeth as she watched Sato leave. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Mouri Kogoro and his group, who were almost passing her in front of and behind her. She was suddenly stunned for a moment——
So, Sato is in charge of the bomb case, and Shiratori Takagi Chiba is in charge of the serial murder case. Is this why the Four Heavenly Kings did not appear in the Conan series at all in the early stage?
