"Ah? How could this be possible... Miss Kataki caught fire all over her body and fell into the river and died on the spot?"

After listening to Officer Otaki's story.

As the real murderer, Shigehiko Yoshikazu showed an incredible expression.

If you have to give an example to describe it.

It’s probably the kind of girlfriend who has been dating for 10 years. After she talks about marriage and has sent out the invitation to the wedding banquet.

As a result, on the day of the marriage examination, the doctor told you...

He is a man.

What?

You are even more excited!?

Then when I didn't say...

In short, Shigehiko Yoshikazu's acting skills are quite outstanding.

Except for Ye Gengyi, who knew the truth, the murderer did not arouse any other suspicion.

Of course, this also depends on a truth someone said before.

Yes: When the 'Masaki Kataki' was in the fire, a man holding a black umbrella, about 1.7 meters tall, and wearing a purple coat appeared on the other side of the bridge.

And of these three people, exactly one of them is in line with the above clues.

Fukushima Junaki...

Therefore, he was undoubtedly suspected.

"So, can you tell me why you want to go back to the hotel to change your clothes?" Kogoro Mori stared at him with a scrutiny gaze, "And I remember that before you left, you were the only one who walked with Miss Kataki."

"Because... because when I was looking for Kato before, my clothes were wet with the rain," Fukushima Junaki looked panicked, "As for Miss Kataki, we were separated in front of the hotel.

..Don’t look at me like this. If I had known that this would happen, I would have been by her side at that time!"

"Yeah?"

Kogoro Mori was skeptical of his testimony.

At this moment, the police officers on the side found a piece of ceramic fragment and a photo of the deceased.

There are 5 people in the photo.

Located in the middle is an old man with white hair and a pair of round-frame glasses. He held the scroll found in his hand from the first deceased Yuki Kato.

Of course, Yuji Kato himself is also in the photo.

Immediately afterwards, the woman on the far right was the second deceased, Masaki Kataki.

"It seems... this is a group photo from at least ten years ago."

Hattori Heiji gave a judgment based on his appearance and said, "In this way, they did not know each other recently from the Internet, but had known each other a long time ago."

"But, who are the other three?" Officer Otaki was still identifying carefully.

"This person seems to be Mr. Hirano." Fukushima Junaki pointed to a certain place among them.

"Haino? Who is that? Is that also in your tour group?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"He is not here, but he is the initiator of this tour group," Wuya Yuhiro took over the topic and said, "We all met on Mr. Hirano's website, and later everyone decided to go out for a trip together."

Yosaka Shigehiko couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that he had something to do before he set off, so he couldn't come with us..."

What a pity?

Hearing this sentence, Ye Gengyi couldn't help but look at him.

Could it be that self-violence is a compulsory course for every murderer?

"But the people who planned to travel did not come, can you still get together?" Kogoro Mouri continued to expand his doubts.

There is a suspicion of 'As long as there are murderers among the people I suspect, I will be a qualified detective'...

"Because everyone likes Osaka very much, and..." Wuya Arihiro said: "If you really think someone is using this trip to kill people, why not just go to the initiator, that is, Mr. Hirano to ask for an explanation?

?”

"Yes, Mr. Police Officer, it's too rude to just suspect us like this. After all, it's not certain whether Kato and Kataki are committing suicide or killing him..."

Seeing that Hiroshi was about to leave, Hiroshihiko Yoshisaka quickly added, "By the way! Mr. Hirano's website is called 'Legend of the Golden King', and you can find it immediately by searching the Internet."

After saying that, he followed.

"That... I can leave too, right?" Fukushima Junaki pointed at himself with a little thought.

After all, there is no evidence. Just based on the testimony provided by Ye Gengyi, the police cannot directly arrest people... Officer Otaki waved his hand helplessly: "Let's go, let's go..."

Looking at the backs of the three of them leaving.

Hattori Heiji and Conan fell into deep thought again.

The wind was getting heavier and heavier, and the two of them stood for more than ten minutes.

When they come back to their senses and want to find Ye Gengyi to confirm the details again.

Looking around, he found that the other party was missing.

Eh?

"Haye, do you know where Gengqin's first brother went?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Oh... I saw him walking over there when you were discussing the photos just now." Yuanshan and Ye said, pointing to the other end of the bridge.

Did you go to the bathroom?

Two detectives guessed.

......

On the other side.

Next to the road outside Osaka Castle.

Ye Gengyi got on a black business car.

Beside him, two senior police officials in the Osaka area are discussing the next arrest.

During the conversation, the corpse burning and robber murder incidents 13 years ago were also mentioned.

At that time, the two of them were not their current positions, and they had some youthful habits in their thoughts.

And those thoughts that were very persistent at the time, but now seem extremely naive, were the reasons why they failed to catch the group of murderers and delayed for 13 years...

Why does it sound like it feels like I see the shadow of my son when I was young? So the punch I used to swing some personal grudges?

Ye Gengyi Ben wanted to collect information silently.

It's a pity.

In a short while, Ginjiro Toyama took the initiative to hand over the topic under the instruction of an old fox.

"Mr. Ye, you won't blame us for bringing you in too, right?"

"Where, the two of you have planned it carefully," said Ye Gengyi.

"It's still worth it? Haha..." Ginjiro Toyama asked with a smile: "Mr. Ye, how do you say this?"

"I heard from two people that the suspect had a gun and asked Heiji to track a criminal gang that possessed a gun. The safety seems to be not guaranteed."

Ye Gengyi answered very skillfully. He avoided the discussion of the case lightly and immediately turned the topic to the bait. "And, Conan's child also seems to have an adventurous personality."

Upon hearing this, Ginjiro of the Far Mountain was silent.

Take risks with your kids...

They really don't have any reason to deal with this matter.

Hattori Heidaki finally stopped silent and said, "This is my reason, otherwise Mr. Maori would not have acquiesced to this happen. However, Mr. Ye, don't worry, Otaki and the others will protect Conan."

Ye Gengyi: "..."

Protect Conan only?

It seems that Heiji is asking for more blessings this time...

"By the way, before I could congratulate you, I heard that Mr. Ye has repeatedly solved strange cases in the Metropolitan Police Department and has already served as an expert in the "Technical Association". Now we can be considered colleagues." Hattori Heizo Miki Hattori

Looking at it, he could not tell the emotions at all from his expression, as if he had just learned about this news.

"It's not like a strange case that is so exaggerated. In short, I happened to run into a few robbers first, and then helped the police department solve several cases," Ye Gengyi said: "Compared with the experience and ability of you two old detectives,

I'm still far from it."

Upon hearing this, Ginjiro Toyama's expression froze.

Hattori Heidi also opened one eye slightly.

By the way, after hearing the conversation between the two of them 13 years ago, they still said this.
