"Yes," Mouri Kogoro nodded thoughtfully, "Feichi seemed to have said something about Amuro before..."
From the non-hypocritical reactions of Mouri Kogoro and Mao Lilan, Toru Amuro guessed that there must be Chi Feichi's deliberate thoughts. He glanced at Chi Feichi with a smile and sighed in his heart that his consultant was really great, and he talked to Maori Kogoro said, "Yes, I have admired Mr. Mori's name for a long time. It is really an honor to meet you today."
"Where," Mouri Kogoro's mood was a little subtle, that feeling of familiarity and unfamiliarity, which made him feel a bit unsatisfied. He still wanted to pay attention to the demeanor and posture of a famous detective, "Although I am your senior ,but……"
"Ahem!" Mumu Shisan coughed heavily and said with a livid face, "We still have cases to investigate. If you want to reminisce about the past, please wait until the investigation is over. Then you can chat for as long as you like!"
Mouri Kogoro saw that Megure Thirteen was really angry, and quickly echoed, "That's right! There is another important incident to be resolved now... By the way, where did we talk before?"
Takagi Wataru: "..."
When he rewinds the tape, he seems to have reached...
Sato Miwako: "..."
No wonder Officer Megure's face looked so bad. The topic did deviate from the incident for a while. However, they listened to this group of people chatting very enthusiastically, and for a while they couldn't return to their previous ideas for handling the case.
"We talked about it before," Megure Thirteen noticed in advance that the topic had drifted, and had already returned to his previous ideas for handling the case. He looked at Toru Amuro with a stern face, "You are a detective..."
Toru Amuro smiled.
Mumu Shisan looked at the man in sunglasses and said, "You are also a detective..."
The man in sunglasses forced a smile on his face.
Memu Shisan glanced at Moori Kogoro next to him and Chi Feichi at the table over there, his face became darker, and he said in a faint tone, "In this environment where there are more and more practitioners in the detective industry, this time The soon-to-be-married groom and the bride, Miss Kamen, both hired detectives to investigate each other..."
Thinking of this, Takagi Wataru couldn't help but look at his partner, Laita, and asked, "Even if you know that your girlfriend is meeting a mysterious man in private, do you still plan to get married?"
"When you encounter this kind of thing, you usually ask her directly, right?" Mouri Kogoro also looked at his partner, Yorita, depressedly, "Go and ask her directly, what is your relationship with that man!"
"Because the detective I hired told me that Hatsune only met the mysterious man once, and she didn't meet him again after that. I thought if it was just that one time, I would just pretend not to know," said Yoita Banba with a look of helplessness. , "And I hired a detective to investigate her. If she knew about it, she would be disgusted! Because our relationship has always been very good, good enough to admit to each other that we were adopted..."
Mumu Shisan was speechless, feeling that he really couldn't understand the newlyweds' thoughts, "But you still hired detectives to investigate each other, didn't you?"
"If you entrust me, that pretty boy is..." Mouri Kogoro complained to his partner Yorita, and suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. He looked at Toru Amuro and said seriously, "I have long since said that he is a detective. I’ve helped you investigate!”
Chi Feichi looked carefully at Toru Amuro's face.
How does Amuro look like a pretty boy? Is this considered white?
Toru Amuro forced a smile.
Mr. Mori is really funny.
Also, don't think that he doesn't know that when the consultant looked at him, he was complaining that he was "clearly a black face"...
"How could I entrust you! You are so famous, and she will recognize you if you follow her," Tamanba Yorita retorted to Mouri Kogoro without hesitation, "And I plan to introduce you to her. , wouldn’t it be very embarrassing if she knew you had followed her and I introduced you to each other again!”
"However, if you entrust me, Miss Hatsune may not be in trouble, right?" Mouri Kogoro said, looking at Toru Amuro again, "Miss Hatsune may have heard him call to report your situation, you know You were messing around in the store, and out of anger, you lit a fire in the car. As for the skin flakes on the fake nails, maybe she got them there in order to get back at you!"
"No, although I called Miss Hatsune, I didn't say anything about Mr. Banba," Toru Amuro said, "And Mr. Banba was just flirting with a woman when he was drunk. Ms. Hatsune wouldn't do it because of this." Just commit suicide?”
"Speaking of phone calls, in Ms. Garmon's cell phone call records, there are three phone calls at close intervals. They were all incoming calls when it was almost nine o'clock in the evening." Megure Thirteen recalled, "The number on one of the calls has the note 'husband', so it should be Mr. Bianchang who called, right?"
"It should be the call I made," Raita took out his cell phone to look at the call history. "After we decided to get married, Hatsune marked me as 'husband' in the address book of her cell phone. I called Hatsune's The time was 8:54 in the evening. At that time, I thought she had brought her lover to the party. I was in a bad mood and cut my wrist because of the broken glass, so I really wanted to call and hear her voice... "
"On that phone call, you heard her say 'goodbye', right?" Megure Shisan looked at Banba Yorita and asked.
"Yes, yes," Yaitai Banba nodded to confirm, "Her voice sounded like she was crying. I was very anxious, but the call was quickly hung up, and not long after, there was a crash from the parking lot. .”
"Hmm..." Megure Thirteen thought for a moment, then looked at Toru Amuro and asked, "You just said you called Miss Hatsune. Do you remember when it was tonight?"
Toru Amuro took out his cell phone, and before looking through the call history, he already confirmed, "The time I called should be 8:48 tonight."
Gao Mushe had already taken out a notebook to record the time, and asked doubtfully, "Do you remember the time so clearly?"
"Because I called Miss Hatsune according to the time," Toru Amuro pulled out the call record, showed the call time to Megure Jusan and others, and then turned to look at Banba Yorita, "At 8:20 Around the same time, Mr. Banba received an email from Miss Hatsune. He was only chatting with women and did not receive a call from Miss Hatsune. Later, Miss Hatsune seemed to have sent him an email, saying that since he did not After answering the phone, I took a photo for him to preview, and after half an hour for him to appreciate it, Mr. Bianchang read the content of the email in a low voice, and I think everyone near him heard it..."
Megure Thirteen looked at Banba Yorita to confirm, "Is that so?"
"Yes," Raita Banba glanced at Toru Amuro speechlessly, "I didn't expect that he turned around and left at that time, and he was still eavesdropping on me reading my email."
Toru Amuro smiled back.
He is responsible for the client!
"In other words, you can all deduce that Miss Hatsune will come back here around 8:50, right?" Megure Thirteen asked seriously.
Banba Laita nodded, "That's right."
"Mr. Amuro said before that he made the call according to the time, right?" Miwako Sato looked at Toru Amuro with doubt and scrutiny, "You specifically called Miss Hatsune when she came back here. , and said that she didn’t report to her that Mr. Bianchang was flirting with a woman, so why did you call her?”
When Mouri Kogoro heard this, he also looked at Toru Amuro with suspicion, "Yes, you are the detective hired by Miss Hatsune to investigate the companion. What are you calling to contact Miss Hatsune, if not to report?"
Amuro's clairvoyant eyes drifted towards Chi Feichi, "That..."
Chi Feichi was still sitting in his original position, looking away from Toru Amuro and continuing to smoke with a calm expression.
Now that he decided to mind his own business, he was prepared to be involved.
"I know!"
Mouri Kogoro suddenly shouted, startling Amuro Toru, and Mouri Kogoro was also staring at Amuro Toru with solemn and vigilant eyes, "You guessed that Miss Hatsune will come back at 8:50, but she... I called at the special time of 8:48 just to confirm the specific time of arrival with Miss Hatsune when she was about to arrive at the parking lot!"
Conan looked at Mouri Kogoro with some surprise.
Yes, the timing is indeed questionable.
Although the waiter may have been entrusted by Brother Chi to call at that time, Uncle Kogoro lacked this clue, so he discovered the problem from the call time...
"As long as you tell Miss Hatsune," Kogoro Mouri put his hand next to his ear and made a 'listen to the phone' gesture, deliberately showing a casual look, "Miss Hatsune, I have made an important discovery here, and I need to talk to you in person. You said, I wonder if you are back..."
After saying that, Mouri Kogoro switched back to his serious face for a second, put down his right hand, looked at Amuro Toru and said, "Afterwards, Miss Hatsune should tell you that she will arrive at the parking lot in about a minute or two. In this way, You get the exact time Miss Hatsune arrived in the parking lot, and go out and kill her!”
Toru Amuro looked at Mouri Kogoro blankly.
Mr. Mori correctly guessed the purpose of his call based on the time he called. Is this considered smart?
Regardless of whether such a guess may be a bit random, Mr. Mori has always guessed it right!
However, if you really want to use 'shrewd' to describe Mr. Maori, he feels like the word is insulting.
Did he leave the restaurant tonight? Even if the restaurant had a back door, he had been busy in the restaurant after 8:30 pm and never left the restaurant. How could he kill someone? If you ignore such obvious information, wouldn't Mr. Mori be considered a 'muddlehead'?
If a person appears both shrewd and confused, he may be deliberately pretending to be stupid, or his shrewdness may be just an accidental, short-lived inspiration...
He suddenly wanted to know if the consultant would be confused.
Even if Mouri Kogoro's performance seems to be the latter, a cautious and suspicious person will not easily clear the suspicion that it is actually the former, and vice versa.
Regardless of whether Mouri Kogoro is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, this characteristic will make people more uncertain the more they ponder, and the more uncertain they are, the more time they have to ponder it. The more they ponder, the more uncertain they become.
His consultant has been with Mouri Kogoro for so long, wouldn't he be going crazy thinking about it?
However, it is no wonder that the consultant would become a disciple of Kogoro Mori...
If nothing else, it's a skill that makes him unable to tell whether a person is confused or not at once!
