Not Officer Sato, but Kobayashi...teacher? ? ?
Hearing this, Miyamoto Yumi and Chiba Kazunobu showed surprised expressions.
Seeing this scene, Shiratori Rensaburo suddenly had a bad feeling. He deliberately did not respond to their stares and led the way:
"Ahem! Let's go to the conference room to chat..."
"that……"
Kobayashi Sumiko looked at the slightly flustered Shiratori Rensaburo, hesitated for a moment and then asked:
"Do I really look like that Officer Sato?"
It's okay to be mistaken for someone else.
However, Ye Gengyi's words about Shiratori Rensaburo spying on each other were too devastating.
While making Kobayashi Chengko uneasy, she will inevitably care about the relationship between the two.
It was an unavoidable question, and he couldn't pretend not to hear it... Shiratori Rensaburo had no choice but to explain:
"I don't think it's too similar..."
"Yeah?"
The five young detectives all used their eyes to condemn a certain detective for blatantly deceiving his teacher.
"Ahem..."
Shiratori Rensaburo was choked and quickly changed his words: "It's a little bit like..."
"That's it," Xiaolin Chengzi whispered: "I suddenly want to see her..."
Eh? !
Shiratori Rensaburo was completely confused. He quickened his pace and came to the conference room as if running away. He motioned for everyone to come in and changed the subject:
"Ah, I have the opportunity to introduce you to each other... So, come on in, let's talk about the case we encountered last night first!"
"oh……"
Kobayashi Chengzi stopped asking and just nodded lightly.
The five young detectives continued to stare at a certain coral-headed detective with half-moon eyes and squinting eyes.
Ye Gengyi walked at the back and said as he passed by:
"You feel guilty."
"Mr. Ye..."
Shiratori Rensaburo looked nervous for a while.
He had never noticed before that this handsome young professor would actually become a roadblock in his love journey!
…
After a few people took their seats.
Shiratori Renzaburo said, "Wait a minute," and went to the tea room to bring juice, black tea, and a cup of black coffee without sugar.
Calm down a little.
He followed the procedure and asked Kobayashi Sumiko what happened before and after the case last night.
Xiaolin Chengzi's confession was basically the same as last night.
Shiratori Rensaburo nodded, took out a photo from the file bag on the side and handed it over:
"Teacher Xiaolin, I still want to confirm that the victim you found should be Sumida Akira... right?"
Kobayashi Chengzi took it and looked at it carefully for a moment: "That's right, it's this person... He, he bled a lot at that time..."
"Don't be nervous, we will definitely catch the murderer."
Shiratori Rensaburo quickly comforted him and continued: "Do you still remember the conversation between the murderer and the victim when they were arguing?"
These are the details that Sumiko Kobayashi did not explain to the police last night because she was too nervous and afraid.
Kobayashi Sumiko recalled for a moment:
"I heard the quarrel, but most of it was covered up by the fireworks at the time. However, I heard the female murderer's curses very clearly. She shouted at that time, 'Stop talking nonsense and hand over your things quickly. Give it to me, or I'll kill you'...that..."
She paused and said uncertainly:
"Could the suspect be a female robber who often appears in that area recently?"
"No, the female robber was captured by us yesterday evening."
Shiratori Rensaburo shook his head and asked about the details of the conversation: "Mr. Kobayashi, why do you think the murderer is a woman? Is it just because of that shout?"
"Because I saw the murderer running away. She had quite plump breasts and had a ponytail. Oh...she also wore a hat."
Xiaolin Chengzi's expression was very serious:
"Although, although it was too dark at the time, I couldn't see her appearance clearly, but it shouldn't be wrong."
On the side, Conan couldn't help but frowned: "But Teacher Xiaolin's face was seen by the murderer."
Because Kobayashi Sumiko is a teacher by profession, no one can guarantee whether the murderer has seen her before or even knows her home address.
"Eh?! Why do you say that?" Shiratori Rensaburo was very surprised... Takagi Wataru did not mention this matter when he handed over the case to him!
Kobayashi Sumiko said: "The murderer seemed to stare at me from a distance for a while, and disappeared immediately after Conan and the others arrived."
"I see……"
Shiratori Rensaburo looked serious: "Maybe the murderer has already targeted you."
"Um……"
Kobayashi Sumiko is not very optimistic about her situation: "That's what everyone said."
"Until the murderer is caught, the teacher can continue to live at the doctor's house like yesterday!" Ayumi suggested.
"That's right!"
Yuantai smiled and said:
"The doctor and brother Gengyi have created many interesting video games. We can play them together!"
"Thank you for your kindness," Xiaolin Chengzi shook her head: "But after I go back, I still have to prepare the courseware for tomorrow's class..."
She didn't know Ye Gengyi's daily routine, and thought that she had something to do with him spending the night in the basement. Especially when she saw Ye Gengyi helping a group of people make breakfast the next day, she felt extremely guilty.
"Then let's let our young detective team spend the night at the teacher's house." Yuantai had a new idea.
"We will protect the teacher just like last night, and we will never let the murderer touch a hair of the teacher." Mitsuhiko said.
"Yeah, so don't worry, teacher!" Ayumi made the final summary with a smile.
"Everyone……"
Kobayashi Chengzi was very moved and was ready to refuse after accepting this kindness.
Opposite the conference table, Shiratori Rensaburo, as if he had been given a shot of blood, slapped his hands on the table and stood up, shouting very excitedly:
"No! Leave the task of protecting Teacher Xiaolin to me! Even if I risk my life, I will never let you get hurt!"
It turned out that he had misunderstood!
Last night's 'living together' was not that Teacher Xiaolin and Mr. Ye went somewhere alone, but that all of them stayed at Dr. A Li's house together!
If I were to guard Teacher Xiaolin alone today, wouldn't I be able to...
A certain coral-headed detective showed an expression of "heart rippling".
"What's wrong with him?" Hui Yuan Ai looked over suspiciously.
Ye Gengyi drank coffee and said calmly: "You must have become a pervert."
Hey hey! No such slander!
When Shiratori Rensaburo heard this, his palms slipped and he almost fell under the table. After a while, he recovered and said with an embarrassed expression:
"Mr. Ye, please stop joking..."
