Although the God of Death cannot change time, he can bring about murder.
While the two were looking at each other in silence, some diners at the dining table on the other side had already finished inquiring about the news and were preparing to gather friends to join in the fun.
"A murder happened..."
"Yeah, I heard that the person who died seemed to be the president of a video game company..."
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true. I just came over there and he was shot in the head and he bled a lot."
The conversation reached the ears of the two people intermittently.
The deceased was the president of a video game company?
Ye Gengyi originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but when he heard this, the look he looked at Kudo Shinichi gradually became weird.
So, this kid was dissatisfied with the fact that he happened to interrupt his date and just killed Tatsumi Taiji?
"Ye...Teacher Ye?"
What was originally just an ordinary greeting turned into the current stalemate.
A certain detective was also secretly worried.
Finally, Xiaolan was not in trouble. If he continued to delay here, not only the murderer might take the opportunity to escape, but even some evidence that could have been left behind would be accidentally destroyed by the crowd watching the excitement.
But...why does the instinct of the body tell me that it is best not to turn your back to the man in front of you?
Could it be that when I transformed into Conan, I was frightened by him?
Just when he was feeling melancholy, Ye Gengyi suddenly stood up and walked straight towards where the crowd was gathering.
Kudo Shinichi was startled, but he quickly and cautiously followed.
The two of them walked side by side, and even the air they breathed had an aura of silence.
A certain detective wanted to say something to lighten the atmosphere, but his mind could not be completely focused on this matter, so he, who was always eloquent, could only remain silent at this moment.
Ye Gengyi took a few more steps forward, suddenly turned his head, and looked at the other party expressionlessly: "Don't be so nervous. If I were a precocious brat with problems, when he grows up to your age, he would be the leader today." I wouldn’t be surprised if kids go out.”
"Um...Mr. Ye," Kudo Shinichi felt that he still needed to figure this out. "Isn't the problematic kid you are talking about referring to Conan?"
"Yeah." Ye Geng nodded.
A certain detective: "..."
Thanks, that's me too.
But what image does Edogawa Conan have in your mind? Hey!
The topic suddenly became more tortuous! And how can you break this situation where you are obviously complaining about yourself, but you can't explain it?
"Kudo-kun, you should be considered a celebrity at Didan High School." Ye Gengyi continued to talk casually.
"Fortunately..." Kudo Shinichi did not admit or deny, he just smiled: "I happened to assist the police in solving some cases. By the way, I heard from Hattori and Conan that Mr. Ye, your reasoning and solving of cases The ability is also outstanding.”
"Yeah?" Ye Gengyi shook his head, "They misunderstood, I don't know how to reason."
You can't reason? So what am I if I lose to you several times in a row...
Kudo Shinichi's face was full of depression, "But I have heard that you have solved several cases."
And there was one at yesterday's garden party...
But...if Ye Gengyi didn't take the initiative to mention this matter, he was going to pretend to be stupid and get through it.
"I just sorted out the logical relationships in the case and supplemented the links that were insufficient or unreasonable," Ye Gengyi said.
"Hey, isn't that just reasoning!" Kudo Shinichi said with embarrassment.
"There is still a difference," Ye Gengyi said: "Compared to detectives who like to use evidence to supplement details, I personally prefer to let the prisoner supplement it by himself. After all, it is better to develop the habit of doing things by yourself."
Kudo Shinichi: "..."
God should do his own thing...
How much do you like to let suspects 'self-destruct' on the spot?
The restaurant is neither short nor long.
While talking, the two came to the corridor in front of the elevator.
Here, the murder scene was already crowded with people, and President Tatsumi’s body fell into the elevator.
"At first glance, it looks like a robbery leading to death..."
Noticing that the security personnel in the building were undergoing maintenance, Kudo Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly focused on solving the case.
This time he did not rush forward. Instead, he imitated Ye Gengyi's usual behavior and stood in the crowd from a distance to observe.
Trying is only one aspect.
As for the desire to compete with Ye Geng, yes, but it is not the focus of today.
He had just returned to his original appearance, and what he needed more at this moment was to keep a low profile.
Observe in a low-key manner, solve the case in a low-key manner, and then... go back and confess!
The wait didn't take long, and Mu Mu Thirteen's efficiency remained the same.
In addition, the Metropolitan Police Department is also in the center of Mihua City.
Including the elevator ride, it took less than 10 minutes for the police officer in a khaki suit to appear at the murder scene as expected.
The police quickly took over the work of maintaining order at the scene.
very quickly.
All the customers watching the excitement were blocked outside the cordon.
In front of the elevator, only a few employees from the video game club were left to answer questions.
Ye Gengyi ignored the cordon and walked over very naturally, followed closely by Kudo Shinichi.
The temperament of the two of them, coupled with their skillful movements, made even the police officers responsible for maintaining order feel in a daze for a while, and after reacting, they did not stop them at all.
It seems like this is simply a normal thing.
Here, Memu Shisan rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, "Takagi, has the identity of the deceased been investigated clearly?"
"Well," Takagi Wataru nodded, "his name is Tatsumi Taiji, he is 58 years old, and he is the president of a video game company. The ones who found the body were several members of the same company over there as the deceased. They seemed to I forgot to bring something and when I was about to go back to the company to get it, I saw this scene in the elevator."
"Forgot to bring something?" Mumu Shisan was confused: "This floor seems to be a restaurant..."
"Because today is their company's anniversary celebration, these people forgot to bring the flowers that will be used at the end of the party, so they came here to get them in the company's special elevator."
Takagi Wataru looked at the notebook in his hand and continued: "By the way, they also said that President Tatsumi seemed to have answered a phone call before and then ran to the 24th floor to wait for someone."
"Oh? Could it be...a threatening call?" Mumu Shisan dragged his chin to analyze, "Where is his call record?"
"The forensic officer is still deciphering the code, but...it shouldn't be a threatening call," Takagi Wataru quickly added: "Because they said President Tatsumi was very happy when he went to pick up the person, and said that if this thing is done, Well, that will be the biggest good news for their 20th anniversary..."
"So, who is the person he went to pick up?" Mumu Shisan was even more curious.
