A group of people drove away from the scene where the body was dumped.
Mouri Kogoro drove Fei Eri, and Hayasaka took his place. Conan chose the latter between 'confirming the answer with Ike Feichi' and 'following the suspect' and got into Moori Kogoro's car.
There were only so many clues at the moment. After much deliberation, he felt that there were not many key clues. No matter how powerful Chi Feichi was, there was no way he could have thought of more than him.
As for Hayasaka Minato, he was very suspicious. He felt that it was better to keep an eye on Hayasaka Minato, and he might be able to find key clues faster than Chi Feichi.
Ahem...well, the main reason is that Xiaolan is worried that her uncle and Aunt Yingli will quarrel. This time she took the uncle's car, so he will definitely follow Xiaolan!
Behind the white car, Takagi Sheba drove a police car, followed by Mu Shisan, and after that, Chi Feichi's Lexus SC.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki sat in the back seat with Haibara Ai. When he saw the car driving all the way up the ramp, he looked at the figure of the person driving in the front seat and whispered, "Mr... Chi, I think Ms. Hasaka is very suspicious.
Many times, criminals will return to the scene of the crime or the scene of dumping the body, some to appreciate the results of their crimes, and some to keep track of the progress of the police investigation. And she is a hairdresser. This is such a coincidence, so I proposed
Let’s go to her place first, and she once dated the deceased, and she also made an appointment with the deceased for a haircut tonight..."
Haiyuan Ai was also brought into the rhythm of thinking. Before Chi Feichi could respond, she warned aloud, "It is indeed suspicious, but she has the concubine's lawyer as a witness, and the concubine's lawyer will not lie to protect others."
"Yes, she can take us to her shop, which shows that she is very confident. How she dumped the body is also a mystery," Koshizu Nanatsuki looked at Feichi who was lying on Chi Feichi's shoulder and sighed.
He said, "Before the body was found, Fei Chi suddenly jumped up. He must have discovered something. It would be great if he could tell us."
Fei Chi felt excited, raised his head and said, "Master, I did see it, tell them quickly..."
"Maybe the body flew down." Chi Feichi drove up the driveway.
Feichi froze, speechless and turned to look at Chi Feichi, "Master, you won't..."
Chi Fei Chi gave Fei Chi a calm look: What do you think?
Feichi suddenly felt that he had lost his value again, so he backed away a little and moved under Chi Feichi's collar.
Alas, it's better to go to sleep. The temperature dropped at night and it's a bit cold tonight...
"Flying down..." Yuesui Nanatsuki was speechless at Chi Feichi's answer. He paused, his face changed slightly, and he frowned in thought, "Flying down?"
"If the body could fly down on its own, we wouldn't see any cars or people on the road." Chi Feichi reminded him calmly.
Yes, he was giving Koshimizu Nanatsuki a hint.
Conan and he don't open a detective agency, and they don't rely on their reputation as detectives. His teacher's reputation is already big enough, and there is no shortage of this case. But Koshimizu Nanatsuki has just arrived, and he is in need of someone who can establish 'reliability' with the police.
Chances are, this case will be left to Yueshui for reasoning.
The detective had no choice but to resist.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki thought, "The sounds we heard before and after the body was found were also very strange. The 'pop' sound before the plop sound seemed to be not far away from us..."
Haihara Ai thought, "With human power, there is definitely no way to throw a 90 kilogram body into a garbage dump across a slope, but if we use some mechanical equipment, maybe we can do it."
"Well..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki hesitated and looked up at Chi Feichi who was driving in the front seat, "Mr. Chi, could you please do me a favor?"
"What are you busy with?" Chi Feichi asked.
"I'm afraid there won't be any clues in the barber shop, but the police will definitely investigate Kadai's alibi in a while. Maybe there will be some loopholes. When I got near the barber shop, I wanted to take a look at the guardrail directly above the body dumping site.
So I would like to ask you to help me listen to her alibi," Koshimizu Nanatsuki paused and then added seriously, "Of course, I will also tell you the clues I have investigated."
"No problem," Chi Feichi agreed readily, and then asked, "But it's okay if you're the only one going to investigate nearby, right?"
Hui Yuan Ai thought silently.
Wait, it seems the time has come for her to show off.
Brother Fei Chi just lacks the opportunity to be alone with girls, and he doesn't seem to object to being alone with Detective Yueshui. Then she can help listen to the alibi and let Brother Fei Chi protect Detective Yueshui...
"It's okay," Koshimi Nanatsuki smiled, clenched his fist and waved, "Detectives always need to master some self-protection skills. I used to be the leader of the kendo club, and I also won the Nanbu High School Student Award three years ago.
The champion of the competition! Unfortunately, during the national competition, I was delayed by the case not long after I arrived in Beijing. I didn’t arrive at the competition venue in time for the semi-finals, so I was judged to have lost."
Chi Feichi: "..."
The champion of the Southern High School Competition and the semi-finalist of the national competition...
That level is definitely no worse than Hattori Heiroku, and even worse than Okita Souji of Kyoto. Okita Souji is a potential national champion. Koshizu Nanatsuki was judged to have lost in the semi-finals that year, and he has never seen Koshizu.
It's really hard to judge Nanatsuki's sword use.
However, Koshimi Nanatsuki definitely still has the ability to hold a hammer, aim at a man's head, and beat him to death, so there is no need to worry about Koshimi Nanatsuki being killed by some serial murderer when he walks down an alley.
Got knocked down.
Haibara Ai:"……"
Okay, okay, it’ll be fine if the cross-water detective goes there by himself.
…
Three cars stopped at the entrance of the beauty salon.
After Koshimizu Nanatsuki got out of the car, he saw Megure Thirteen and others following Hazaka Minashiro into the store. He looked at the nearby alley and said in a low voice, "Then let me go first to see if there is anything suspicious nearby."
"Wait a minute..."
Chi Feichi walked around to the back of the car, opened the trunk of the car, took out a sheathed knife, turned around and asked, "Can the unbladed Tang Dao be used?"
Koshimi Nanatsuki sweated and nodded, "That's enough, no problem, but... do you still put a knife in the trunk?"
Chi Feichi threw the wooden knife to Nanatsuki Koshimizu and continued to rummage through the trunk, "There are also iron bars, wrenches, hammers, gardening shears, fish-killing knives..."
Koshizu Nanatsuki: "..."
Iron rods, wrenches, and hammers may be used to repair the car. She can understand it, but why are there large gardening shears held in both hands in the trunk of the car? And that sharp fish-killing knife?
Just like a mobile cold weapons depot, is Brother Xiaoqi really not doing anything dangerous?
"Sometimes I take my children camping, and the doctor always forgets to bring things, so I bring a kitchen knife in the car, as well as gardening shears that are convenient for cutting tent ropes. The Tang knife was bought in Chinatown before, because
I didn’t have Kaifeng, and then I forgot to take it home, so I kept it in the trunk of the car..."
After Chi Feichi finished explaining, he looked towards Yueshui Nanatsuki.
If it were something hard to explain like a bone-crushing knife, he wouldn't have put it in the car. And what he said was true. The things in the trunk were used for car repairs and camping emergencies.
Even if he encounters a fugitive or something, he will rarely encounter a situation where he has to use weapons.
Okay...Which one Yueshui likes is yours to choose.
Yuesui Nanatsuki understood what Chi Feichi meant, and said with a sweaty smile, "Don't bother, Tang Dao is already very good."
She was carrying a hammer, a wrench, a knife, an iron bar, and gardening shears. It was strange no matter how you thought about it. It felt like she was not carrying a weapon for self-defense, but a murder weapon to commit murder.
Haibara Ai:"……"
(っ?-?)
These two people, one dares to go into the dark alley by himself, and the other dares to provide cold weapons, they are really...
Have you never thought of asking her to help you listen to the alibi?
"Then I'll leave first!"
Koshizui Nanatsuki waved the hand holding the Tang sword in a good mood and turned around to enter the alley.
This is proof that Brother Xiaoqi cares about her safety!
On the wall, a crow lowered his head and stretched out his claws to kick his dozing companion beside him.
Dare to be lazy during the shift with the master, be careful of being ripped off by boss Fei Mo!
…
"I see……"
In the barber shop, Takagi Wataru stood behind the chair and confirmed to Fei Yingli, "Lawyer Fei sits here and lets Ms. Hasaka cut her hair, right?"
Chi Feichi brought Haiyuan Ai in and joined in to listen.
"That's right," Fei Yingli looked at Hayasaka Minashiro, "I came here at eight o'clock. It took about ten minutes to wash my hair and twenty minutes to dye it..."
Conan listened intently to Fei Yingli's timeline, and even Chi Feichi didn't notice when it happened.
As Fei Yingri said before, during the entire process, Hayasaka Minato was only away for about 10 minutes from 8:20 to 8:30.
According to Minyo Hayasaka, she just went to the convenience store to buy something. Since there was a garbage collection point next to the convenience store, she dropped off the trash and offered to take everyone to see it.
Hayasaka Minyo led a group of people through the back door and into the alley behind. The moped he was riding to the convenience store to buy rice was also parked at the door. On the other side of the door, there were also abandoned tables and chairs and other sundries.
Conan determined the direction, pointed to one end of the alley and said, "So, is that over there above the garbage dump where the body was found?"
"Ah, yes." Hanasaka Mindai said.
Conan got the confirmation and started running towards the other end of the alley.
"Hey! Conan!" Mao Lilan quickly chased after him.
"Oh, this kid is really..." Mouri Kogoro looked away speechlessly, and suddenly saw someone approaching at the intersection at the other end of the alley, and turned around in confusion.
There are no street lights in the alley, the only light source is the light from the street lights at the intersection at the end. The person has short hair and is wearing a long coat. He is walking towards the street with a backlight. He is holding a long sheathed knife in one hand. His shadow is cast on him from behind.
The light is stretched very long...
When Nanatsuki Koshizui came closer, she realized that everyone else was looking at her, and turned to look at the unclosed back door, "Huh? Is this the back door of the beauty shop?"
"Yes, yes, Miss Koshizui, where were you before?" Takagi Shitama smiled and looked at the Tang sword in Koshizui Nanatsuki's hand, "And this..."
He felt that Miss Yueshui, who had just walked over, was like the legendary samurai swordsman, holding a sword and walking softly on the path, preparing to declare war on the opponent waiting here.
"I want to go nearby and see if there are any clues," Nanatsuki Koshizui looked down at the Tang Dao he was holding and then looked at Chi Feichi, "As for this Tang Dao, Mr. Chi lent me it for self-defense.
"
"Uh, but brother Chi," Mumu Shisan looked at Chi Feichi with a dark look, "Why do you bring a Tang knife when you go out? It's easy for others to misunderstand you if you bring such a sharp thing out...
…”
"No front," Chi Feichi explained calmly, "It's only half a decoration."
Mu Mu Shi San's bean-eyed eyes said, "Yes, that's it..."
