Conan also looked up at Chi Feichi curiously.
The Ayanokouji police officer looked very cold. He chatted with Chi Feichi for a while in front of Benkei Stone. They thought they were friends with each other because they kept strange pets. But just now Ayanokouji said the words "Chi's family", Chi Feichi Fei Chi didn't seem surprised, and he realized that Chi Fei Chi and Ayanokouji seemed to know each other.
"His family background is not simple. He is a well-known family in Kyoto, and his family is influential in politics," Chi Feichi said briefly. "More than ten years ago, my father brought me to Kyoto to meet him once at a banquet hosted by his elders. , he should be in high school by then, he doesn’t like to talk much, but he’s not a difficult person to get along with.”
"Really..." Hattori Heiji turned to look at the direction Ayanokouji Fumimaro left.
Not a difficult person to get along with? That's for Brother Fei Chi.
That guy is as strange as Brother Fei Chi, not enthusiastic and doesn't like to laugh.
Conan could only laugh dryly, they really knew each other, and these two people had recognized each other before, but they didn't even say hello and catch up on old times. It was hopeless.
"Conan and I saw him walking alone on the other side..." Hattori Heiji hesitated for a moment, "It was indeed suspicious that he appeared alone near the murder case at night, but maybe we were overthinking it. That string that Conan found key……"
Chi Fei was too lazy to run away, "You go, leave it to me here."
Hattori Heiji took Conan with him, found an excuse to deceive the police guarding the door, and left in a big way to Sakura Masazo's antique shop.
Hui Yuan Ai stayed with Chi Feichi, "Do you think someone from outside did it?"
"The possibility is very low," Chi Fei walked upstairs. "The boss lady has been at the counter at the door. If someone comes in, she will be alerted. Xiaolan and the others are on the terrace. There is no one who can avoid their sight and sneak into the house. There is only a small window in the bathroom in other directions, so only children can climb in."
"And the other party knew that Mr. Sakura would go to the warehouse, so he could kill him there," Haibara Ai followed up the analysis, "In other words, the only possibility is that the murderer is Ryuuma, Mizuo, and Saijo, whom Mr. Sakura knows."
"After Mr. Ying, Xiaolan and the others left the room, the three of them and I went to the bathroom once each. The stairs next to the bathroom lead to the warehouse. You can go to the warehouse to kill people while going to the bathroom," Chi Feichi said. Then, they went up to the end of the stairs and walked towards the room where they were staying before. "When Mizuo and I went to the bathroom, Chika Rezu was with us. At that time, Saijo and Ryuumata, Chika Rezu was playing games with the teacher, so they The two of them went to the bathroom alone, of course, it is also possible that Chika Suzu was an accomplice."
At present, Saijo Taiga and Ryūen are the most suspicious. Conan and Hattori Heiji have probably reached this point in their reasoning, so they want to go to Sakura Shozo's antique shop to see if they can find any unusual connection between Sakura Shozo and these two people.
Back in the room, except for Hattori Heiji and Conan who escaped, everyone else cooperated with the police to check their belongings. All the sharp tools in the store were found, blood reactions were tested, and the murder weapon that killed Sakura Masazo was found.
But all the sharp weapons were checked, and the murder weapon that killed Ying Zhengzo seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. There was no blood reaction on other similar knives and objects.
Including Chi Feichi’s bag of arrows...
Ayanokouji Fumimaro put the arrow he took out back into his quiver, "Ten of them, which matches the number mentioned by the store that sells bows and arrows, and there is no blood stain on them."
"It doesn't match the incision of the deceased's fatal injury," Chi Feichi said.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro nodded, "Besides, you have no previous interactions with the deceased. If you want to deal with an antique dealer, you don't have to go to extremes."
"Unless he holds something against me that forces me to kill someone," Chi Feichi added.
Suzuki Sonoko, Mao Lilan, Toyama Kazuha: "..."
Is Brother Feichi following Officer Ayanokouji seriously to doubt himself?
"Well, but it's still impossible for you to do it yourself," Ayanokouji Fumimaro thought for a while and looked at a group of people, "and our police did not find the murder weapon. Everyone stayed here and never left. Later, because of Mr. Mori's request , if we all come to this room and wait, it’s impossible to take the murder weapon out.”
"Did someone from outside sneak in and kill Mr. Sakura?" Long Yuan asked in surprise.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro did not rush to deny it. Although the murder weapon could not be found, it could only be concluded for the time being. At least there was no reason for the people here to stay.
"What are you doing on the other side tonight?" Chi Feichi asked.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro came to his senses and said, "Walking alone. When I have something I can't figure out, I occasionally walk along the Kamogawa River."
"Who can prove that your squirrel is sleeping at home?" Chi Feichi asked again.
"No one can prove it," Ayanokouji Fumimaro said. "No one can go to my room, and it doesn't like to be in contact with people."
Haibara Ai:"……"
They are suspicious of each other. Do these two people have any grudge?
"Ah! I understand," Mouri Kogoro said seriously as he glanced at everyone present, "The murderer had an accomplice! After killing Mr. Sakura, he used some method to get the murder weapon outside the house, and then his companions recovered the murder weapon. For example, Take advantage of the squirrels.”
Suzuki Sonoko rubbed her chin and recalled, "Speaking of which, when we were watching the night cherry blossoms on the terrace, I seemed to hear the sound of something falling into the water..."
"Really?" Hattori Heiji, who had just returned, heard it outside the door, walked in quickly, and asked, "What kind of sound is that of falling water?"
"It's just a 'plop'," Suzuki Sonoko couldn't explain clearly, "anyway, it can't be a creature as big as a human."
"The answer is obvious," Mouri Kogoro said. "The murderer tied the murder weapon to the squirrel, then let the squirrel jump into the river and swim along the river to a certain place. The police officer recovered the murder weapon and made it disappear. method!"
Ayanokōji Fumimaro looked at Chi Feichi speechlessly. Do you really want to make him a murderer?
He was not targeting Chi Feichi, he just met someone he hadn't seen for a long time who was involved in the case, and wanted to eliminate Chi Feichi's suspicion first.
Why is it spinning around and turning to him?
Chi Feichi ignored Ayanokouji Fumimaro's gaze. He knew Ayanokouji Fumimaro's intentions, but he didn't want to lose face when staring at him in front of so many people. Just fight back.
"The teacher's reasoning is not supported by evidence." Chi Feichi opened his mouth to save the situation. He just wanted to fight back and did not want Ayanokouji Fumimaro to really become a suspect.
"Hmph, I will definitely find evidence." Mouri Kogoro glanced at Ayanokouji Fumimaro.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro didn't pay attention, and turned around and asked the others to go back first and cooperate with the police investigation if necessary.
After everyone else left and only the police, detectives and the detective's family were left in the room, Chi Feichi closed the door and asked, "Who are you spying on?"
Ayanokouji Fumimaro is wandering around here. It's a coincidence that he doesn't have a squirrel with him, so he might be conducting surveillance and investigation.
"Huh?" Maori Kogoro was confused and didn't understand who Chi Feichi was talking to.
"Sakura Shozo," Ayanokouji Fumimaro didn't hide it, "About three years ago, colleagues from the police station investigated and found that there were items from improper sources in his antique shop. However, no evidence was obtained in the end. It seemed to be a misunderstanding, because' In Genji Hotaru's case, I specially looked through the files related to the antiquities of unknown origin. Thieves' gangs always have ways to sell stolen goods, so I decided to have all the businessmen with criminal records observe it. I just planned to come tonight to see if Sakura Masazo had anything to do with it. I have no contact with anyone suspicious."
"Oh?" Hattori Heiji suddenly smiled, "We actually discovered something..."
Hattori Heiji and Conan went to Sakura Shozo's antique shop and found a copy of "Yoshisuke". The last page of the book had the signature of "Ise Saburo" and a copy of a picture sent to Sannoji Temple.
In other words, Sakura Masazo is Ise Saburo, a member of Genji Hotaru, and he also wrote the letter sent to Sannoji Temple. After killing Sakura Masazo, the murderer probably took the original, but he did not expect that Sakura Masazo not only went to the mountain Nodera sent a copy of the drawing, and he also left a copy in his antique shop.
After Ayanokouji Fumimaro went to the police station, the police prepared to search Sakura Masazo's antique shop and home, while everyone else dispersed.
Chi Feichi took Haibara Ai back to the hotel. Suzuki Sonoko and Mori Kogoro had no plans to return to Sannoji Temple and were going to stay in the hotel. However, Hattori Heiji did not agree to stay in Kyoto. He felt that Kyoto was not far from Osaka and decided to Take Yuan Shan and Ye back.
At around eight o'clock in the morning, Chi Feichi received a call from Mao Lilan.
Hattori Heiji was attacked on his way back last night.
When Chi Feichi took Haibara Ai to the hospital, Hattori Heiji was still awake.
"He Ye called me at about one o'clock in the morning," Mao Lilan explained, taking Chi Feichi and Haihara Ai into the ward. "When we rushed to the hospital, Hattori was already out of danger, so we didn't call again. I disturbed you and Xiao Ai with the phone call, I won’t tell you until the morning.”
As soon as Chi Feichi entered the door, he saw Conan, Suzuki Yuanzi, Yuanshan and Ye Zai, "You won't stay all night, right?"
"No, we paid a visit and then went back to rest." Suzuki Sonoko yawned, "But I didn't sleep well either."
Mao Lilan looked at Toyama Heye, who was sitting by the bed and was a little depressed, "Heye stayed here all night."
"I...I'm just taking care of Heiji as a sister!" Toyama and Ye said hurriedly.
Afterwards, Fumimaro Ayanokouji of the Kyoto Prefectural Police, Goro Otaki of the Osaka Prefectural Police, and Rensaburo Shiratori of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department also arrived.
The case of Genji Hotaru involves three regions. The police from these three regions jointly handled the case. They had just investigated Sakura Masazu's house and antique shop, and heard that Hattori Heiji had been attacked by someone suspected of being the murderer, so we decided to take a look at Hattori Heiji. Are there any clues here.
"What?" Shiratori Rensaburo was a little surprised when Conan told him about Chi Feichi's previous attack. "Mr. Chi was also attacked before?"
Ayanokouji Fumimaro looked at Chi Feichi and said, "You didn't tell me last night."
"Forgot." Chi Feichi said.
Otaki Goro: "..."
What answer is this? !
Shiratori Rensaburo said quietly, "If Hattori hadn't been seriously injured and hospitalized this time and had to call the police, they would have forgotten about it."
Ayanokouji Fumimaro felt his temples pounding. They are really a group of people who have their own way of doing things. "Then have you found any clues?"
"No," Conan said with a serious expression, "The other person was wrapped tightly and was wearing a motorcycle helmet, so he didn't see his face at all."
"But why did the other party attack Mr. Chi and Hattori?" Shiratori Rensaburo was confused.
"They seemed to be investigating the case of Hotaru Genji before. Could it be that they discovered something while wandering around?" Ayanokouji Fumimaro guessed.
"Ah..." Toyama Kazuha looked at Hattori Heiji who opened his eyes in surprise, "Heiji, you're awake!"
