Not long after, Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan came back.
With an uncle who seemed to be out of sorts.
Of course, how could the murderer be caught so easily?
Is this uncle just being used?
So he was caught by Hattori Heiji and the elementary school students without even running.
"It's the same as the previous case..."
"They all died by piercing the heart with a knife from the pocket of their coat, through their wallet..." Hattori Heiji murmured, touching his chin.
Among the onlookers, a woman ran away in panic after hearing this.
Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan immediately chased after him.
"Wait a minute, that aunt——"
The woman got in the car and drove away without hesitation.
Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan stopped as they watched the car go away.
"What's wrong, she ran away." Hattori Heiji frowned.
"It doesn't matter, I've already written down the license plate number." Edogawa Conan's voice was low.
"Hattori, now you should tell us about that incident." The primary school student's glasses began to reflect light.
The real murderer is always around everyone.
So scary~
Tsushima Shuji silently glanced at Officer Sakata who looked calm beside him.
Everyone came to the police station.
They sat in rows and listened to the case.
"You mean, this is already the third victim?" Mouri Kogoro said in a surprised voice.
"Yes, the three victims were fatally stabbed in the chest after being stabbed through their wallets." Hattori Heiji held his chin with one hand.
"But the murderer would strangle them with something before." He told the case in a calm tone.
Toru Amuro and Mu Midorikawa, who were sitting next to Tsushima Shuji, exchanged a look.
Three, exactly three.
Hattori Heiji, Kudo Shinichi, and Kao, one for each of them.
its not right……
Toru Amuro suddenly looked at Mouri Kogoro.
What about this one?
There are four detectives here, and there is one less victim.
Could it be...
Toru Amuro looked at Tsushima Shuji again.
Maybe Kaa was really implicated by them? The dead man has nothing to do with Kaa?
"Could it be that they were killed because of a feud over money..." Yuan Shan and Ye put their faces in their hands and speculated.
"Impossible, it doesn't make sense." Hattori Heiji denied her guess without hesitation.
"The first deceased, Hidetoshi Nagao, was the store manager of a supermarket, the second deceased, Tadai Nishiguchi, was the owner of a tavern, and the third deceased, Kazuto Noyasu, was a taxi driver."
"It is impossible for any of them to get into disputes over money. Apart from the modus operandi, they have nothing in common." Hattori Heiji listed them one by one and then came to a conclusion.
The next moment, Officer Sakata ran over happily.
"I found something the victims have in common." He was happy.
Hattori Heiji was slapped in the face quickly:? ?
"Cough..." Tsushima Shuji couldn't help coughing.
Suppressing laughter?
"Really?" Hattori Heiji immediately forgot what he said a second ago that they had nothing in common, and looked at Officer Sakata with an expression of surprise.
So Officer Sakata took out a tape and started playing it.
In the video, a group of reporters surrounded a car and kept asking questions.
A man in a suit stood under the car and took questions.
The man in the back seat of the car remained expressionless.
"Isn't this... the news that Sotaro Goji was involved in corruption and malfeasance six years ago?" Hattori Heiji said with his hands in his trouser pockets.
"Later, his secretary stepped forward to take responsibility and resigned voluntarily, and the matter was dropped." Mouri Kogoro recalled.
"I remember that his secretary... seems to have the last name Nagao? Could it be..." Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized.
"Yes, it was the first victim, Hidetoshi Nagao." Hattori Heiji confirmed his guess.
"But what's the use of finding this now? It's all over now..." Hattori Heiji asked Officer Sakata behind him.
"I'm not telling you to look at the secretary, look at the driver." Officer Sakata pointed at the driver in the camera.
"This is..." Hattori Heiji took a closer look.
"The third deceased, Yean Kazuto?!" He sounded surprised.
"Yes, Noyasu Kazuto has been working as a driver for Sotaro Goji until four years ago." Officer Sakata explained.
"His secretary and driver are both dead... It seems that this has something to do with the mayor." Hattori Heiji thought thoughtfully.
Officer Sakata nodded and agreed, "That's right, so the seniors have already gone to the home of the township council member."
"But that guy is famous for hating the police. It might not be that easy to see him." Mouri Kogoro said from the side.
After all, he was once a policeman.
"In that case, let's go there together." Hattori Heiji zipped up his coat and said to Officer Sakata.
By the way, he grabbed Shuji Tsushima with one hand.
Shuji Tsushima, who was watching Hattori Heiji stuffing Edogawa Conan into his coat:...
"Wait...I'll just..." No need.
Shuji Tsushima tried to refuse.
"Why are you two going? Can't we just leave it to the police?" Mouri Kogoro asked in confusion.
"Please, this murderer ruined your trip to Osaka. I can't let him go so easily." Hattori Heiji turned his cap and lowered the brim.
"Yes." Tsushima Shuji nodded.
It was too much to ruin my trip to Osaka!
"Heiji, do you have the amulet I gave you with you?" Toyama and Ye suddenly asked.
"Of course." Hattori Heiji replied.
Then he concealed the fact that he was carrying a primary school student in his belly, and rushed out with Shuji Tsushima.
"Sure enough, driving a patrol car is too conspicuous... I need you to write a car damage report." Hattori Heiji changed to an ordinary car this time.
He said to Officer Sakata.
"It's nothing..." Officer Sakata didn't care.
Shuji Tsushima sat in the back seat, and Toru Amuro and Muya Midorikawa quickly followed.
"But... what's in your clothes?" Officer Sakata asked, looking at Hattori Heiji's bulging and moving clothes.
"This..." Hattori Heiji opened the zipper, and the elementary school student stuck his head out and took a big breath.
Officer Sakata:? ? ! ! !
"Hey hey hey..." Hattori Heiji chuckled.
"Hehehe..." The primary school student also showed a classic giggle.
Tsushima Shuji silently turned his head away from the two of them.
I didn’t see it, ugh~
"But you just left like this, Mr. Mori..." Officer Sakata said hesitantly.
Heiji, is this kidnapping a child?
"It's okay, just give me a call then." Edogawa Conan silently got into the back seat and sat down without panicking at all.
"By the way, brother Heiji, we have found out the identity and address of the suspicious woman you mentioned through the license plate number. Sumie Okazaki, 39 years old, lives in the Saito Apartment nearby. Should we go to her first? "Officer Sakata took out an information card and said.
"Okay, maybe that aunt will know something." Hattori Heiji said with one hand on his chin.
"Then let me make a call first." Officer Sakata said.
"Hello, I am Officer Sakata from Osaka Police Station..."
"Mr. Police, please come here quickly to protect me. If this continues... I will be killed." The woman on the other end of the phone sounded frightened.
"I can tell you what happened in the past. Come here quickly." The woman's voice was on the verge of madness.
