The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. The police officer's accidental complaint made Hashimoto Maya suddenly alert.
He couldn't help but lower his head and looked at the Memu Police Department: "..." As your new brother, I advise you to stop here and don't think too much - I don't want to suddenly receive any mission to assassinate a cadre of the Metropolitan Police Department, or I don't want to be killed.
Received such a task but inexplicably carried out an autonomous execution.
"Yes, this is too coincidental. It's almost as if someone has deliberately arranged it."
Maya Hashimoto's fleeting guilty conscience was caught by some elementary school students who were observing him closely.
Conan's eyes moved vaguely between Maya Hashimoto and the front desk. Finally, he looked at the front desk and said in a long voice: "Brother, there are so many empty rooms, but why do you want to let the deceased uncle go to the surveillance room?"
A blind box?"
"You kid, why are you talking so weirdly?" The front desk muttered and had no choice but to explain:
"I originally wanted to take the guest to Box 1, but he didn't stop when he got to the door and walked straight back.
"Some guests have their own unique preferences for the location of the box. When I thought of this, I didn't bother to stop him and followed him to box No. 5...
"In short, if I have to say it, he chose the place of death himself. I am innocent."
At this moment, the police department was doubtful. At this time, Jiang Xia nodded: "The deceased seemed to be following us before he was alive - theoretically speaking, he would indeed prefer the hidden room No. 5 to the crowded No. 1 box.
The gentleman at the front desk must be right.”
The little guy at the front desk nodded in agreement, looking at him with bright eyes.
"As expected of the God of Wealth, he speaks well!" The front desk person thought about how busy the night was and secretly thought, "When the case is over, I have to give this high school student a discount card and invite him to come and visit often - this is better than the counter.
That liar lucky cat is much easier to use. My parents will be very happy to know that I am so witty."
Unlike the receptionist who was secretly happy, a primary school student next to him touched his chin and frowned.
Conan: "..." In terms of reasoning, Jiang Xia's strength goes without saying, and in fact, before Jiang Xia spoke, he had vaguely thought of this reason. But...
"If the truth behind 'accidentally leading the deceased into the death box' is really so ordinary, then what on earth was Maya Hashimoto so nervous about just now?" Conan always felt that he couldn't take it lightly, "Think about it again - there must be something involved in this matter.
There are also hidden secrets that I don’t know about.”
…
The suspicion at the front desk was temporarily eliminated, and everyone looked at the surveillance camera again.
After some fast forwarding, suddenly, the door of another box was opened - two muscular men left the box laughing and playing, and went to the bathroom together.
...Although they knew that the shorter one was a woman, the impactful scene on the screen still made everyone look away and politely avoid it.
When the two of them disappeared from the screen, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief and their eyes returned to the screen.
Soon, someone else came out.
"This is..." Megure Police Department looked closer for a moment and recognized it, "Mr. Hashimoto? Why do you look so panicked in the surveillance video? What happened?"
Maya Hashimoto looked at the embarrassing self through the screen: "..." It's hard for me to explain this... But from another aspect, it's easy to explain - just lock you in a box and let you go
The primary school student also joined in and sang a song, and you will know why I looked like that.
However, he is a seven-foot tall man, but he was scared away by a simple song from an elementary school student... This sounds really embarrassing. If you really say it, it seems like you are making excuses.
So after thinking for a moment, Maya Hashimoto said: "I...I also go to the toilet."
——Let me explain it in this way first, pretending that I don’t want to reveal the truth about the ugly singing of elementary school students, and I am protecting Conan’s fragile face and soul.
And if these people still want to get to the bottom of it...then don't blame him for actually coming up with the plan of "everyone go and listen to Conan sing to me".
Fortunately, the police department didn't think much about it, and Jiang Xia was considerate and didn't say anything.
Only the hateful elementary school student opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, two female high school students struck like lightning and covered his mouth. They seemed to be confused about the reason why Hashimoto Maya left the box.
Well aware.
The two sides looked at each other, and Maya Hashimoto smiled gratefully at them: "..." Compared with the elementary school student who was inherently evil, the other colleagues were made to look like good people...
…
Following Maya Hashimoto, the old man in box No. 1 also left the box and turned around the corridor to the surveillance blind spot.
Officer Takagi held his notepad and answered skillfully: "You also go to the bathroom?"
Who knew this time, the answer would be different.
The old man dressed in fishing gear shook his head: "I went to buy cigarettes."
"Buy cigarettes?" The police department was a little confused at first, but then they remembered - at the end of the corridor, at the door of the bathroom, there was indeed a vending machine with a lot of cigarettes in it.
The old man followed up and said: "But I didn't buy it - there were no cigarettes that I usually smoke in that vending machine. I hesitated for a while and finally gave up."
The time he disappeared from the surveillance camera was indeed very short, only two minutes. Soon the old man returned to his box and pushed the door open.
"Mr. Honma and Mr. Arimoto have returned to the box just now." Police Department Megure checked the record he just wrote and suddenly discovered a problem, "Mr. Hashimoto, did you stay in the toilet for a long time?"
Maya Hashimoto: "..." That kid is acting like a bully. Who knows how long he wants to sing...
Maya Hashimoto glanced at Conan, paving the way for him to reveal the truth later: "I... I had a stomachache at the time."
The police officer at Mumu made a sound, said nothing, and continued reading.
After a while, Maya Hashimoto finally appeared on the surveillance screen. He came back from the toilet, paused for a moment in front of the high school students' box, seemed to be leaning against the door and listened, and then pushed the door open and entered.
.
Memu Police Department: "...What are you doing?"
Two female high school students: "..." Although they had already speculated, it seems that Mr. Hashimoto is really hiding from Conan's songs.
When I think of Hashimoto Maya, she would rather be suspected than reveal the truth about the ugly singing of elementary school students...
Mao Lilan couldn't help but be moved. She thoughtfully helped Maya Hashimoto smooth things over: "Maybe it's because I'm worried about disturbing our singing. Me, I'm quite introverted. If someone opens the door while singing, I will be embarrassed to continue singing - Mr. Hashimoto can
