Of course, this inference is not convincing.
It makes no sense to think that Takagi Wataru will definitely have an accident based on the phrase "As long as the serial murderer is caught, he will go to the hot springs."
Should I say that Takagi is still the same Takagi...
To actually make such an expression and attitude without any confidence... But no matter what, I was still careless when I came to the wrong judgment.
Let’s first ask him about the progress of his investigation...
Thinking about it, Ye Gengyi took out his mobile phone and called Gao Mushe.
All are all...
The phone rang for a few seconds and then connected.
"Mr. Ye?"
The sound is very hollow...
Beside them, one on the left and one on the right, Haiyuan Ai and Conan came closer. Ye Gengyi pressed the hands-free button and said:
"where?"
"I just learned about the situation from the wife of Doctor Fangchuan, the first victim 20 years ago, and I was about to drive to the next place." Wataru Takagi said.
The full name of the doctor Fangchuan he was talking about was Fangchuan Jiji, and he was 50 years old when he was killed.
Because he was also the director of a hospital, his wife Maiko Hogawa inherited all of his estate after his death, and was listed as one of the suspects under investigation at the time of the incident.
However, the police later found no conclusive evidence, and Maiko Hokawa had no connection with Atsunori Umatada, an associate professor at the Department of Science and Engineering at Toto University who was killed two days later.
Ye Gengyi asked: "What have you discovered?"
"No……"
Takagi Wataru sighed, "Because Mr. Pingtong was only 21 years old 20 years ago, and it is usually difficult for them to have any intersection..."
"Could it be that the three of them met in the hospital?" Ye Gengyi reminded.
"Well, that's probably not the case. I heard that after the serial murderer was stabbed by Administrator Matsumoto, our police immediately investigated all the hospitals and clinics in the city. If anything happened, they should have been there early. Found it..." Takagi Sheta said.
"Um?"
Ye Gengyi raised his eyebrows in an incomprehensible manner: "Did the serial murderer's knife wounds be inflicted by Manager Matsumoto?"
"Mr. Ye, you don't know?"
Takagi Wataru explained: "The scar on the management officer's left eye was caused by a suspect who was under surveillance when he was still serving as a supplementary position in the police department. At that time, he took the opponent's knife and slashed the suspect horizontally. The suspect’s back.”
It turns out that the clue that the Megure Police Department said that the serial murderer had a knife wound on his back came from this, but under normal circumstances, no one would have thought that the police and the murderer would chop each other...
Matsumoto Kiyonaga is very angry...
Ye Gengyi finished his emotion and continued the previous question: "The reason is not sufficient, but there is a possibility. Since the police did not investigate the clues in the hospital, it also means that the serial murderer may have something to do with the doctor." Did you know each other and asked the other party to help treat the wound in private? If this inference is true, the doctor may have been silenced. Don’t just investigate the relationship between Heidong Tangji and several victims’ family members. Asking more questions will not delay you. spa."
"Eh!?!?!"
Gao Mushe's face turned red immediately, and he stammered: "Mr. Ye, how do you know?"
"Conan told me." Ye Gengyi decisively betrayed him.
He deliberately mentioned the hot springs, not just to tease Takagi Wataru, but mainly to instill in him the idea that Conan was unreliable, so as not to lead them around when they met Guzi.
Conan: "..."
Although I said it, is it appropriate for you to tell the person involved like this? But then I thought about it, if it hadn't been for this incident, Brother Gengyi might not have called Officer Takagi...
"cough!"
On the other side of the phone, Gao Mushe scratched his head in embarrassment, took the initiative to change the subject, and said: "Then...Mr. Ye, please wait a moment, I will go back and ask again."
"No hurries?"
Ye Gengyi said: "How old is Fangchuan Maiko? How many people live in the family now?"
Takagi Wataru didn't know why, but he still answered seriously: "Ms. Maiko is over 70 years old and lives alone. She has not remarried and has no children."
"...It's okay, go ahead and ask, don't hang up the phone." Ye Gengyi said.
If you still encounter danger, don't quit your job and become a detective. Just take a pill and go to Didan Elementary School to become a primary school student... From there, following Conan will probably be more rewarding than working at the Metropolitan Police Department.
"oh……"
Takagi Wataru put the phone back in his pocket, kept it in call mode, walked back quickly and rang the doorbell of Fangchuan's house again.
Maiko Bokawa saw the young detective leaving and coming back. While feeling puzzled, she still answered the other person's question about her husband's private social circle:
"I don't know many things very well. However, he often went to parties with some people on Saturday nights during his lifetime... Once he was so drunk that he kept talking incoherently, and he kept laughing. I'm a crybaby, don't look down on others', so I think the other person is probably a friend of my husband's who has known him since he was very young, right?"
As she said that, she asked in a daze:
"If I remember correctly, I told the police about these things 20 years ago..."
"Ah! Is that so?" Takagi Sheba made a completely unaware voice.
This is the phone.
Ye Gengyi fell silent... something that the police already knew? Therefore, Takagi Wataru was not prepared at all.
Half a minute later.
Takagi Shita's voice came from the receiver again:
"Mr. Ye? Did you find anything?"
I found out that your account is completely useless, so you might as well give yourself a shot and start practicing from the age of 0...
Ye Gengyi controlled his finger to hover over the hang-up button: "I found a lot, which one do you want to hear?"
"Ah?! Really!"
Gao Mushe was startled at first, and then said excitedly and urgently: "Mr. Ye, please tell me quickly!"
Here, Conan and Haihara Ai also showed surprised expressions.
Found a lot...
Didn't everyone listen to this together? Why didn't I notice anything?
Ye Gengyi said: "The three deceased people should have the habit of going out every Saturday night."
"Brother Gengyi, you mean they and the serial murderer met at a party?" Conan suddenly realized.
"I'm not completely sure, but it shouldn't be too different." Ye Gengyi said.
Since it is a serial killing, there are only two possibilities: random killing and non-random killing.
There is no need to analyze random killings, and no assumptions can be made.
Rather than killing randomly, there must be an intersection between the deceased and the murderer.
The so-called 'friends' who don't even know their family members are the only ones they meet at parties...
In addition, with such obvious clues, what have the police been doing for the past 20 years? Or... if we continue to investigate, it's a headless hanging eucalyptus?
This is also the reason why Ye Gengyi is not completely sure.
