The news program, shortly after experts commented on the possibility of random killings, was quickly switched to another live broadcast.
"The recent plunge in the price of aquatic products has severely affected Japan's aquatic industry, and most of them are at risk of bankruptcy."
"In order to solve this problem, the government has launched a series of support policies to help the aquaculture industry tide over the difficulties."
"According to the latest news, in order to reduce losses, some production areas in Tokyo recently planned to distribute unsalable seafood to school meals for free to reduce stocks."
The news anchors on TV were reporting one report after another.
At this time, in the living room of No. 22.
Yuantai stared at the TV screen intently. When he heard that seafood would be provided to schools for free, his eyes shone with anticipation and he swallowed involuntarily:
"You want to give seafood to schools for free? Does that mean you can eat eel rice with open stomach after school starts?"
"Please!"
Conan shook his head helplessly and couldn't help but say: "Even if eels live in fresh water for half of their lives, they are seafood after all. It's still a bit uncomfortable to eat them now."
"Eh?" Yuantai looked over in confusion: "Why?"
"..."
Conan did not answer immediately, but after reading the news on TV, he seemed to be considering his words, and after a moment of silence he said:
"Because eating seafood now can easily cause allergic reactions in the body, and it may cause some unnecessary trouble."
"But I've never been allergic to eel rice!" Yuantai was even more confused: "And what kind of trouble are you talking about?"
This... Conan was speechless for a moment, thinking about how to explain.
At this time, Ye Gengyi said calmly: "It is a despicable behavior that seriously violates the law but knowingly violates it and is suspected of endangering public safety."
Hey, hey, that's too sharp... Conan couldn't help but was speechless, but had no words to refute.
"It's against the law..."
Genta nodded as if he understood: "I see, that's really disgusting... However, I'm still looking forward to eating eel rice after school starts."
Maybe you can become smarter after mutating?
Ye Gengyi did not respond.
I'm afraid 90% of the words in Genta's mind are related to eels... Conan also shook his head helplessly and did not break the stupid child's fantasy.
The problem isn't the eels.
The cruel reality is that those seafood will not be sent to the dining tables of those second-generation cocoons.
The topic of seafood will be discussed later.
After a while, Conan used the excuse of asking the doctor to help him repair his skateboard and mobile phone, so he skipped the hand-making project for his summer vacation homework.
He was thinking about how to use this opportunity to go out to collect clues and solve this difficult case as soon as possible.
At the dining table, Ye Gengyi used his mobile phone to continue to pay attention to the trend of public opinion. What was not too surprising was that Mu Mu Shisan called.
Ye Gengyi walked back to the bedroom with a coffee cup and pressed the answer button:
"Police department?"
"Brother Gengyi, have you read the news?" Mumu Shisan's tone showed fatigue. It was obvious that the successive changes had left him completely unable to find a way to investigate.
"Yes. The number one suspect targeted by the FBI, Timothy Hunter, is dead."
Ye Gengyi guided the topic by explaining the facts.
As expected, Mumu Shisan sighed again and said helplessly:
"The current situation is more serious than this... I can't tell you the details of the case over the phone. Brother, please come to the Metropolitan Police Department."
…
Metropolitan Police Department, conference room.
There was a depressing atmosphere in the environment.
Everyone has a more or less tired and anxious look on their face.
The participants at the meeting were still the investigation teams temporarily established by the Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI.
After Ye Geng entered the house, he looked around and found that Mouri Kogoro was not among them.
"Brother Gengyi, I'm sorry, I didn't originally intend for you to get involved in such a dangerous case, but uh..."
Mumu Shisan subconsciously wanted to pat Ye Gengyi's shoulder, but the height difference between the two made his outstretched hand pause for a moment before pointing to the seat next to him:
"However... the current situation is very complicated, and we need to rely on your reasoning ability."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly: "Let's get started."
The development of the situation was more or less as he expected, but he didn't expect that he would go from finding Hunter and dealing with hidden dangers as soon as possible to now looking for Hunter's murderer.
For Ye Gengyi's peace.
Megure Thirteen breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, and asked Chiba Kazunobu to bring in several forensic reports and photos of physical evidence, and listed Carlos Lee, Hitoshi Moriyama, Mark Spencer and others who died one after another after the previous investigation meeting. The story of Timothy Hunter comes out.
Of course, information about the two bodyguards who died outside Mark Spencer's suite is also included.
But no one would think that the murderer killed the former commander just to get rid of them.
Ye Gengyi looked through them in order, his eyes staying on each page of reports and photos for no more than ten seconds.
However, his mind was already rapidly sorting and analyzing the information.
Not long after, he turned to the report of the secretary Kanter, the suspect who killed Mark Spencer and died in the underground parking lot.
The cause of death column reads:
[Except for the injuries caused by the explosion and burning, no other fatal injuries were found on the body surface of the deceased. No residue of burning materials or smoke was found in the mouth, nasal cavity and organs. It is suspected that he died directly in the explosion. 】
It was not in vain to help him 'sew' his body.
Well… speaking of sewing ‘corpse’…
The black officer was not included in the death report, so it's unclear whether the eyewitness account played a role...
Ye Geng put Kanter's death report and the death report of Mark Spencer and the two bodyguards on one side of the table separately. He decided to start discussing this case first and then asked Mu Mu Thirteen:
"Police Department, the murder occurred in a high-rise building in the city. Three people here died indoors, and this one was in an underground parking lot. Four people were killed in succession. Were there no clues left at the scene?"
"There is surveillance video. It is said to be high-tech equipment from the United States. It will take some time for the video to be decoded and copied."
Mumu Shisan pointed to Kanter's death report and said, "However, we have confirmed in the monitoring room over there that he was the perpetrator."
"Um?"
Ye Gengyi frowned slightly, and his excellent acting skills put a puzzled look on his face.
He did not wait for an explanation, but after hesitating for a moment, he turned to an analytical tone and said:
"Police department, are you saying that the perpetrator died in the underground parking lot of that building after killing everyone?"
Mumu Shisan nodded: "Yes, that's it."
