Chapter 651 alibi

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Chiba said that the evidence that the two had been watching TV at that time was a video tape.

The content is Ms. Okino Yoko's "Four Minutes to Prepare Cooking" session. After clicking play, the content is Okino Yoko's tutorial on how to make sweet potato omelette rice today.

"This is it. Because the dishes taught in the "Good Morning at 7" unit are simple and delicious, I will record them every time!"

Chiba smiled and explained: "Usually I would use the scheduled recording function to set it in advance, but last night Kato and I were drinking while watching a video and fell asleep in the living room without knowing it, so I forgot

set in advance.

I didn't think about it until I woke up this morning, and then I recorded it live so that he couldn't play me the pre-recorded program because there was only one video recorder available."

"But isn't there a video recorder under the TV?" Tangze pointed to the cabinet below and said, "Can't that one be used?"

"That one, that's only used when copying video tapes!"

After hearing what Karasawa said, Chiba explained: "If you must use this video recorder, you must use the connector on the front of the TV, but that will cause a lot of noise, and the video recorder will have to be pulled out of the cabinet.

Put it on the ground.

No matter how drowsy I am in my sleep, I won’t fail to notice this when I watch TV.”

Having said this, Chiba picked up today's newspaper and unfolded it for everyone to read: "If you still don't believe it, just call the radio station and ask about the content broadcast today.

Today is Friday, September 19th, and I was recording the "Good Morning 7:00" segment of Radio Japan, after the weather forecast..."

"Looking at how many TV programs you have collected," Miwako Sato sighed as she leaned over to read the unfolded newspaper in Chiba.

"Really, even the cable TV stations have them..." Takagi glanced around the newspapers and nodded in agreement.

"That's because there are a lot of TV shows I want to watch, so I marked them in circles for fear of forgetting them." Chiba said with an embarrassed smile.

"There are even sticky notes on the corners of the TV screen."

Tang Ze looked at the notes on the TV and found that they were all broadcast time of a certain program. He couldn't help but shook his head slightly: "You are really messed up..."

If Karasawa can't stand watching TV in this kind of environment, putting so many notes on the TV, not to divert attention, will also block part of the picture.

Although the four corners may not be able to block some important scenes, for Tangze, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder, this is absolutely intolerable.

"The main reason is that I'm afraid of forgetting..." Qianye said helplessly: "For the convenience of searching, this is the only way."

"Let's not talk about it for now. It will be eight o'clock after you and your friends finish watching "Good Morning at Seven"."

Uncle Chang, who was suddenly silent, suddenly asked: "What are you doing after this?"

"After eight o'clock...this...that...is watching the video..." Chiba replied a little shyly at this point.

"What video tape?" Officer Takagi continued to ask.

"Uh...this...that...that's..." Qianye glanced at the three little ones behind him, hesitating to speak.

Seeing Qianye's hesitant and thoughtful expression, everyone present realized something.

"Hey, Chiba, you guy..." Takagi stuttered: "Could it be..."

"Adult video?" Miwako Sato asked with her hands on her hips and a scrutinizing expression.

"No! It's this!!"

Seeing that his "social death" was about to become an absolute "public execution", Chiba didn't care anymore and directly took a video tape and put it into the video recorder.

"Da lang da lang da lang~~ da ka da ka da ka~~"

Soon after the video tape was played, the scene appeared, and the familiar music instantly attracted the three little ones who were still carefully checking the models in Chiba's collection.

"It's Masked Superman!!"

Seeing the Masked Superman on the TV screen, the three little ones immediately came to the TV.

"And it's the first episode of the first generation of Masked Superman!" Yuantai said excitedly: "I've seen this before!"

"Although the first-generation mask looks a bit ugly, it's not bad at all!" Mitsuhiko agreed.

"That's great, I haven't seen this before!" Ayumi said happily.

Seeing that what he was worried about came true, Qianye could only warn with a helpless smile: "Watch and watch, but don't press the record button."

"So, until what time do you watch this thirty-minute episode of children's program?" Miwako Sato looked at Chiba speechlessly and asked.

"This videotape is one hundred and twenty minutes long..."

"Then you watched it for two hours?" Takagi asked in surprise.

"No, this seems to have been recorded at triple speed. I saw there are advertisements in it..." Tangze said after operating the remote control.

"A thirty-minute program, a total of twelve episodes..." Even Conan glanced at Chiba speechlessly: "A total of six hours..."

"Six hours!!?"

Sato Miwako and Takagi were instantly shocked, "You actually watched this kind of children's program for six hours!?"

"I'm fascinated by what I'm looking at..." Qianye smiled: "Don't worry about what I'm looking at. In short, this is the situation..."

"By the way, did you record this video yourself?" Tang Ze asked.

"No, it was Kato who recorded it before and gave it to me as a thank-you gift for temporarily staying at my house." Chiba answered truthfully.

"Then during the six hours of watching TV here, were you and your friend Kato always together?" Uncle Chang asked.

"That's not true. I remember that about halfway through watching it, I went to take a shower. It took about half an hour...

After that, I continued to watch Masked Superman, and after watching all twelve episodes of the season, I started watching professional baseball games."

Chiba opened the newspaper as he spoke and pointed to one of the program broadcast schedules: "It's the game broadcast by Toto TV from 2:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon, the Flying Eagles VS Jaguars game!

Then I saw Uncle Chang and you guys coming over on the way."

"I see, I understand..." Uncle Chang nodded after hearing this.

"Now the situation is almost clear..."

Sato Miwako touched her chin and said in deep thought: "It takes more than an hour and a half to go from Chiba's house to the apartment where the victim lives in the morning when there are so many vehicles..."

"Mr. Kato and Chiba watched TV together from 7:00 to 8:00 in the morning, the time when the victim was killed, and for the next six hours they basically spent the next six hours watching the Masked Superman video together."

Takagi echoed: "Looking at it this way, Mr. Kato does have an alibi..."

"But to be on the safe side, let's search it."

Uncle Chang said: "Let's see if any of the children saw the gray hooded sweatshirt and black backpack that the prisoner was wearing when he fled the scene."

But after Uncle Chang finished speaking, the two of them looked at Tang Ze in unison.

"Don't think about saving trouble. I confirmed this when I entered the house."

Karasawa said angrily: "Kato has been staying at Chihe's house for several days. If there is no smell of blood, it is no different from his other clothes, so we still have to search them one by one."

"Well, it seems that I can only search it personally..." Takagi said, looking at the little ones watching TV on the side and said: "What about them?"

"Let them watch TV there, wouldn't it be very quiet?" Tang Ze smiled and said, "And if you can find the backpack and jacket, it will be easier for us to testify."

"That's it." Uncle Chang nodded and began to explain the task: "Then I'll check the entrance, and Tang Ze will check the kitchen...

Sato, go check out the bedroom, Takagi and Chiba, you two go check out the bathroom and toilet..."

"Isn't that right, Uncle Chang!?" Qianye said in astonishment: "I won't have a day off today, and what's more, you are checking my house..."

"Don't worry so much about such small things..." Uncle Chang's words made Chiba sigh helplessly. In the end, he could only accept it honestly and went to check the room with Takagi.

For him today, this vacation is really a bit bad.

First, his friend who was living in his house was suspected of being a murderer. Then, his otaku hobby was seen by his colleagues and he was "publicly executed".

Then a group of naughty children came over and started playing with their collections. They were frightened when they saw themselves, for fear that some baby would be missing arms or legs...

Later, he was used as a coolie to search his home for possible criminal evidence...

What kind of devil's vacation is this? It's really too bad!!

But complaining is complaining, and you still have to do the work that you should do. When you are busy with criminal work, you have to work regardless of the days off and off work.

What's more, today's case involves his good friend and he is at his house, so he is naturally forced to work.

Naturally, after a search, nothing was found, which is normal. If it could be found at Chiba's house, the case would be too simple and almost impossible.

"What, is what you said true?"

Suddenly, an exclamation suddenly sounded in the room, making Tangze, whose thoughts were scattered, startled.

'It won't be so embarrassing, right? Just slap me in the face?'

Tangze thought to himself and ran quickly towards the source of the sound.

"What's wrong!?"

"Did you find any relevant evidence?"

Karasawa was not slow, but Miwako Sato and Conan rushed to the room where Chiba and Takagi were in an instant.

It's just that this was just an error, and Chiba and the two quickly explained the matter clearly.

"Really, if you don't find anything, don't be surprised!" Miwako Sato glanced at the two of them angrily, and then continued to search the room with Conan who ran over.

"What's wrong? You're so surprised all of a sudden." Tang Ze looked at Chiba and smiled: "What news did you hear that made you so surprised?"

"You should know about Karasawa Criminal Investigation. Takagi said that he will be transferred to the investigation headquarters in Tottori." Chiba looked at Karasawa and said.

"Ah, I know, we both knew it together at the time." Tang Ze nodded and said with a smile, "Takagi was quite shocked when he found out about it."

"The seniors in the first department said that this kind of large-scale search operation can take as long as three years or as short as one year..." Takagi said with a sad face: "I felt bad when I heard the news."

"Then what did Sato Criminal say?" Chiba secretly glanced at Miwako Sato who was searching next to her and asked in a low voice.

"At that time, I just asked Takagi to help bring the local 20th century pears." Karasawa bumped into Takagi's shoulder and said narrowly: "As for whether there was anything whispered behind his back, I don't know."

"No, I didn't say anything."

Takagi smiled a little reluctantly: "But I heard that if you go to Tottori to support, you will have one vacation a month. As long as you keep in touch with me, it should be fine."

"Then you need to be more careful." Chiba patted Takagi on the shoulder: "I hope you won't end up like that kid Kato..."

"I just heard them arguing. Miss Shimura seems to be your friend's ex-boyfriend." Karasawa looked at Chiba and said, "Is it possible that the reason for the breakup was a business trip?"

"Yes, that's it..."

Chiba nodded and said with emotion: "Kato, he has been traveling abroad on business before. Last month was only a year...

Originally he was happy when he came back, but who knew that his girlfriend who lived with him was already in love with someone else and kicked him out directly.

He had no choice but to call me for help and ask to live with me..."

"Hey! This must be the reason why he didn't keep in touch with his girlfriend!"

Takagi immediately panicked when he heard the other party's miserable situation, and desperately hoped that it was because of the other party that this ending happened.

But unfortunately, Qianye slowly shook her head under his expectant gaze: "It's not what you think, he basically contacts his girlfriend every day, and not only that, he also writes postcards to her...

But when he mentioned it to his girlfriend, she completely refused to admit it..."

Speaking of this, Chiba looked at Takagi with a serious expression and suggested: "Takagi, I sincerely suggest you that if you take this relationship seriously, it is better to express your feelings to Sato seriously before you go on a business trip.

The two of you can talk frankly about your feelings and seriously discuss your future plans together, so that you can better maintain this relationship.

After all, feelings are mutual, not to mention Sato, even you may have changed a lot by then..."

"Me?" Takagi looked at Chiba with a puzzled smile and said, "What changes can I make..."

"This is hard to say..."

Before Qianye could say anything, Genta on the side said directly: "Maybe I will make a new love over there!!"

"If that's the case, then maybe he won't come back..." Mitsuhiko said pessimistically.

"No way..." Ayumi said in disbelief when she heard what the two said.

"It's impossible to tell. After all, people's hearts are always fickle. Things like feelings will become farther and farther away with time and distance..."

Haiyuan glanced at Conan when he said this: "However, it's hard to say this kind of thing, there are a few exceptions..."

"Hello..."

Facing Haiyuan's teasing, Conan could only passively resist with his dead fish eyes. He was obviously a little shy, and for a while, the air of happiness filled the air again.
