Chapter 90: About the fact that I found clues and was preparing to investigate, but found that the prisoner had surrendered.

When Conan and Heiji crossed the street as quickly as possible and arrived in front of Saito Apartment, more than twenty minutes had passed.

"Hey, Hattori, what's going on?" Conan asked breathlessly while wiping the sweat from his face.

"Ah? What?"

"It's the matter where the murderer... pierced the wallet! If it has nothing to do with money, then maybe it has something to do with the wallet itself?"

"The victim's wallet was damaged and in a mess, and there was nothing strange in it..."

Heiji recalled the styles of wallets of several victims.

"If anything, the wallet cannot hold copper plates, but a foldable wallet that can only hold wallets and cards."

He couldn't think of a reason for a while, so he urged, "Anyway, I'll talk to the lady first."

"Well, asking her should help us learn more about the truth." Conan nodded.

Arriving at the house number that Yusuke Sakata told them, Heiji rang the doorbell.

"Ding dong - ding dong -"

"Auntie! We are friends of the policeman just now. Please open the door!"

Heiji tried to push the door in, but found that the door was locked tightly as Sakata Yusuke ordered.

"Who are you!!"

There was a scream in the room, and Sumie Okazaki heard the movement at the door of the room. Everyone looked at the door, feeling extremely scared.

Knowing that someone was trying to kill him, Sumie Okazaki chose to follow the policeman's instructions and never open the door.

Even if the people outside say they are friends of the police, they can't trick her into opening the door!

Who knows whether he is a good guy or a bad guy!

"If I had known, I would have asked Sakata to tell her on the phone..." Hattori Heiji felt a little headache, but putting himself in the other party's position, he felt that he could understand the other party's refusal to open the door.

Conan gritted his teeth and suddenly thought: "Auntie! You don't need to open the door, just tell us who wants to harm you by the door! Is this okay?"

After a while, they finally heard a still trembling voice coming from the room.

"Okay! I'll tell you everything I know!"

Conan and Heiji listened quickly.

"Nagao Hidetoshi, Nishiguchi Tadai, Noyasu Kazuto and I... participated in the same residential driving school class twenty years ago."

Conan and Heiji looked at each other and saw the shock in the other's eyes.

They immediately thought of the pierced wallet, and finally understood that the inner connection between several seemingly unrelated cases lay in the driver's license in the wallet!

Okazaki Sumie continued: "There are six of us in total... On the day of graduation, we committed irreparable mistakes..."

"We just wanted to play a prank and see if the man known as the Devil Coach would also show a scared expression."

"So we worked together to get Coach Inaba drunk, and then tricked him into driving a car that we had wiped out the brake fluid in advance..."

"Then Coach Inaba died in that car accident..."

Conan and Heiji couldn't help but have an angry look on their faces as they listened to what happened.

This approach... is tantamount to murder!

"You said there are six of you in total? Who are the other two?"

Hattori suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.

There are a total of six people in the dormitory, half of whom are now dead. Except for Sumie Okazaki, who is locked in his room and refuses to come out, the two remaining people who are alive are probably the key to understanding now!

Because these two people are very likely to be the next victims, and even... the culprits of these murders!

"In addition to us, there are also city council members Goji Sotaro...and, and Numagachi, Numagachi Kiichiro!"

"What?" Conan and Heji were shocked.

Kiichiro Numabuchi, a robber and murderer who is currently wanted!

Conan and Heiji looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes.

"I heard that Numagachi committed a robbery and murder and fled back to Osaka two weeks ago..."

After coming back to his senses, Hattori whispered to Conan: "Tell me, is there such a possibility? Numagachi Kiichiro, who lacks the means to escape, wanted to use past events to blackmail the Goji Councilor, but he was rejected..."

"So he killed the relevant people in the past one by one to threaten the congressmen?"

Conan then continued: "Perhaps Xiangji, who is planning to run for Congress this time, used Numabuchi to kill his former partners in order to eliminate past scandals?"

The two of them thought about it and felt that these two possibilities could not be ruled out.

"Anyway, let's go find Councilor Goji first. As for Ms. Okazaki, if she insists on not opening the door, nothing will happen."

Heiji asked Conan for his opinion.

"no problem."

After reaching a consensus, the two ran downstairs. Heiji looked at the roadside and said strangely: "Huh? What's going on? We have been out of the car for so long, why hasn't Sakata come over yet?"

According to his rough judgment, even if a detour is needed to get here from where we were just now due to the road conditions in Osaka, it shouldn't take so long.

Heiji took out his mobile phone and found Yusuke Sakata's number and called it.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hello? Sakata? Where are you now?"

Yusuke Sakata's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Sorry, Heiji. I can't pick you up. Please find a taxi. Let's meet again at the police station..."

After saying this, he hung up the phone.

"Beep...beep..."

Hearing the busy signal from the phone, Heiji looked confused.

What's the situation? What's going on? Why did you leave so quickly?

But now is the critical stage of the case. If they don't have the police to follow them to the township council member's office, they have to rush back to the police station. Since Sakata went back on his own for some unknown reason, the two of them can only do it miserably.

I hurriedly found a taxi and drove back.

Hastily, they stopped a taxi and headed towards the Osaka Police Station Higashijiri Branch at lightning speed.



When Conan and Heiji got out of the taxi, he ran through the door of the Tojiri branch and quickly ran to the place where they were staying before setting off.

To their surprise, Maori and his daughter did not go to Heiji's house with Kazuha. The three of them sat together and talked about something with surprised expressions.

"It's broken! I forgot to tell Sister Xiaolan and the others that I was out!" Conan suddenly remembered this matter.

Heiji ignored him, stepped forward and said loudly: "We have clues! The internal connections of this case and possible suspects have been identified!"

When the three heard his voice, they stopped discussing and looked over.

But what Kazuha said next made Conan and Heiji freeze, dumbfounded.

"But...the prisoner just surrendered..."
