At Longwei's house, in the tearoom with the flag of 'Feng Lin Shan'.
Conan, Hattori Heiji, Yamato Gansuke, Uehara Yui and Ryūo Kage stared at each other in silence with big eyes and small eyes.
Another ten minutes passed.
It was already past midnight.
Tatsuo Kei finally couldn't help but said: "That... Officer Yamato, as you said, I already know the cause of Kai-senpai's death, but will Mrs. Torada really come to kill me?"
If this question had been asked two hours ago, Yamato Kansuke would have definitely scoffed at it and coldly warned the 'bait' in front of him not to ask any more questions.
But now...
My legs are almost numb from sitting to standing. Why hasn't Tatsuei Torada shown up yet? ? ?
Doesn't she plan to kill Long Wei Jing...
impossible.
The information provided by Yui has been confirmed many times by himself in the past few days, and it can be confirmed that the woman is indeed gambling on Yabusuma's selection.
Conan and Hattori Heiji are equally confused and puzzled by the current situation.
They had sneaked outside to check it out before.
To say that this Yamato Gansuke is indeed a ruthless person... In order to avoid alerting the enemy, except for Uehara Yui, who knew part of the inside story and took the initiative to protect Ryuubikage, no police officers were brought here.
If this can still leak information...
Huh? Wait a moment. Have we overlooked something?
The two detective boys felt that this situation felt strangely familiar.
Of course, this familiarity does not refer to omissions at the level of reasoning, but rather to the fact that every time in a case, just before one is ready to show off one's skills with great ambition, one expert surnamed Ye will always get the upper hand.
Speaking of which, since this Nagano Prefecture detective is stationed here, it proves that the other party's judgment is the same as ours. According to this logical analysis... Brother Geng should be nearby too.
And after so long, he didn't show up...
Conan felt more deeply about similar situations. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this guess was close to the truth. He couldn't help but whisper:
"Hey, Hattori, why don't you call and ask Sarada-san?"
"……All right."
Hattori Heiji hesitated for a moment and took out his mobile phone in silent mode. There were no missed calls or unread emails on the screen.
It seems that He Ye did not encounter any situation...
As he thought about it, he opened his address book.
This action instantly aroused Yamato Kansuke's alertness, "Hey! What are you doing?"
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't predict the time when Torada Tatsuei would appear and he was worried that the two children would ruin his ambush plan after going out, he would have driven them away long ago.
Hattori Heiji pondered: "Mr. Police Officer, don't you think something is a little strange? When I went outside to check the situation, the rain was not heavy anymore. Once the rain stops... no matter how cautious the murderer is, he will still be in the mud. There are traces left on the ground that are not easy to erase. If the situation is like what you said before, there is absolutely no way they would miss such a good opportunity."
"That's right."
Yamato Gansuke responded without comment, then frowned and said, "But what I want to ask is, who are you planning to contact!"
"Of course it's Brother Gengyi..."
Hattori Heiji sighed, "Well, I can't explain this kind of thing in one or two sentences. In short... Since Brother Genichi hasn't appeared until now, it means that he has either encountered trouble or has solved it. Trouble."
Well……
Hearing this, Yamato Gansuke was speechless for a while.
If you encounter trouble, it is really inconvenient for you as a criminal police officer to stop him, but if the trouble is solved... is Expert Ye really so powerful?
He looked down at the camouflage armor he was wearing.
The opponent is an unknown number of underworld-type gangs. Even his original plan was to kidnap Tatsuei when he was not prepared and delay as much time as possible so that the firefighters who were on standby outside the village could cooperate.
How could that expert Ye be alone... He must have listened to his own advice, he must have fallen asleep now...
Thinking of this, Yamato Gansuke couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
Next to him, Hattori Heiji, who had already made a call, exclaimed, bringing his thoughts back again:
"Eh??? Brother Gengyi, what did you say!"
Everyone turned around when they heard the sound and saw this dark-skinned young man. The expression on his face was particularly wonderful, including shock, surprise, relief, and a hint of loneliness...
"Well, yes...I'm at Longwei's house, oh...I know..."
A few seconds later, Hattori Heiji hung up the phone, faced his eyes and spread his hands and said:
"Brother Gengichi said that Tatsuei Torada and her men have been arrested."
Conan: "..."
I knew it……
Yamato dares to help: "..."
Uehara Yui: "..."
What's going on?
Long Wei Jing: "..."
So what...when can I go back to the house and sleep? Tomorrow I have to participate in the trials for Yabusame Archer...
…
The next day.
The festival was held as usual, but the trials for the Yabusame archers were postponed for a few days.
Ye Gengyi learned the news earlier than most people, and answered the questions:
"Tariei Torada did not reveal the identity of the detective who accepted a large amount of bribes from her and abused his power."
"So that's the case. He was probably just lucky, hoping that those people could save him." Mouri Kogoro said.
"Well," Ye Gengyi nodded slightly and analyzed: "There is actually no evidence for her murderous behavior. As long as the person behind it is energetic enough, it is not the case to find someone to take the blame and give her a suspended sentence, or to be paroled for medical treatment during her sentence. will not happen."
"Well……"
Some people were silent.
Conan couldn't help but retorted: "Even if it really turns out to be like that, it might be a trap set by the police to find out who is behind her!"
"oh……"
Ye Gengyi asked: "Is there any difference between this and what I said?"
"..."
Conan choked.
"Of course there is a difference," he muttered in his mind: "But those are two explanations before the above situation occurs."
But obviously, this explanation cannot refute Ye Gengyi's hypothesis. Instead, it is an extension of the hypothesis put forward by the other party as a prerequisite.
Conan stopped talking.
When Hattori Heiji saw this, he said 'haha' and followed the topic, relaxing the atmosphere and saying:
"However, I really didn't expect that Brother Genichi would actually contact the Megure Police Department and the others."
In fact, in principle, this kind of cross-regional case handling requires the assistance of the local police station... But it seemed that he only saw the Yamato Police Department.
"I just informed Manager Matsumoto of the situation here. It was his decision to send the Memu Police Department here." Ye Gengyi said.
"Eh?"
Mouri Kogoro was a little curious, "Saraichi, what did you say?"
"It's mainly about the situation I investigated after coming to the village. It's very interesting to talk about. Not only did Yamato Gansuke hide information from me, but even Manager Matsumoto didn't know about many things. So I said, there is a disobedient high school student. Taking a disobedient elementary school student and running with a criminal policeman who likes to show off his personal hero, preparing to arrest criminal gangs...that's about it." Ye Geng said.
A disobedient high school student: "..."
A disobedient primary school student: "..."
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻……
No wonder the Mumu Police Department was sent here... If you tell me this, if they don't come, who will be the one who dies?
