After completing the task of portrait, Kuroki Jin found a corner to coax the children to play. After Sato handed in the portrait and asked people to prepare a wanted order, he said to them:
"Just in time, let me take you to the scene for interviews and evidence collection."
Kuroki Ren raised his eyebrows slightly and said in his eyes: "Don't you want to do that?"
"I'm just on my way." Sato said, "But if you are included, I can't fit in the car alone."
"It's better to let us go with you." Takagi intervened, and Officer Shiratori came out from behind him at some point, nodding along with him in a serious manner.
The two of them had been holding it in for a long time, wondering like a kitten what Kuroki Jin and Sato were going to do next, and finally waited for the opportunity to interject.
"That's okay." Sato thought for a moment and agreed, "Then Kuroki, will you share a car with them?"
Kuroki glanced at the expressions of the two men and said wisely: "I'd better drive and follow you."
He was afraid that as soon as he got in the car, the two of them would join forces to suppress his words and deeds and force him to confess.
Having lost the opportunity to extort a confession through words and deeds, the three cars arrived at their destination without incident. They watched Sato go into a flower shop and buy a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums, put them on the side of the road, squat down on the spot with his hands clasped and his eyes closed to wish.
What are you wearing?
"This..."
"I remembered." Before Kuroki Jin could explain, Shiratori spoke first: "Today is the day when Officer Sato's father, Sergeant Masayoshi Sato, died."
Eighteen years ago, in order to solve a bank robbery case, Masayoshi Sato personally tracked one of the criminals, but was hit by a bus while crossing the road. Because it was raining heavily at the time, the ambulance arrived late, which led to the
The young Miwako Sato watched her father die in the car.
"I remember the name of this case is..."
"Chou Si Lang."
The ones who spoke were Kuroki Jin and Conan who was standing a little further forward. He was also thinking about this incident with a serious face at this moment.
"Aside from the family members, even our police officers don't know much about this kind of case. You two know a lot about it."
Shiratori's words seemed to be unintentional, but he was doubting the way Conan and Kuroki Jin knew the news.
"Uncle Maori told me." Conan immediately pretended to be stupid.
"Indeed, at that time, the Maori detectives were still working in the Metropolitan Police Department."
"Yes." Kuroki Ren said quietly.
Then everyone who remembered the past between Kuroki Jin and Mouri Kogoro quickly fell silent.
"I told Kuroki. I mentioned it when I was chatting with him about other things before." After paying homage to his father, Sato stood up and looked capable and straightforward again. Eighteen years have passed.
Years ago, she is no longer the little girl who was trapped in sadness and unable to escape.
"Someone told me that people can't always live in the past, they have to look forward." Sato looked up at the sky, as if looking at that person, "But I can't forget the memories of the past, because once I forget, he will really
's dead."
Yuantai thought about it for two seconds and then gave up. "What this 'someone' said is really confusing." He muttered.
I'm afraid only Kuroki Jin present knew who Sato was talking about. Just after Sato asked him about Matsuda Jinpei that day, he took a look at the two cases from that year and the internal police files.
Read it again.
For a person who only appeared in Sato's life for seven days, but has continued to influence him to this day.
The memories Sato mentioned that cannot be forgotten, who knows whose memories they are for.
Just as everyone was adding details of the case sentence after sentence, Sato Miwako suddenly interrupted:
"Actually, there are not three clues but four."
"What?!"
"In addition to the video footage of the robbery, the truck driver saying the robbers were wearing raincoats, and Chou Si Lang, there is another clue."
"This is what I want to tell you Kuroki today."
"What's the fourth clue?" Conan asked impatiently.
Sato glanced at the little detective. It was thanks to him that Higashida's case was successfully solved last time, so he didn't hide it from them now. Maybe they can guess it by brainstorming.
"It's "かんお" recorded in hiragana in my father's police handbook, and the Roman pronunciation is KAN·O."
"Because this information is not disclosed to the public, it cannot be found in the Metropolitan Police Department's files."
Sato seemed to be smiling calmly, but he still said with some reluctance: "Three years have passed since the effective prosecution period. I have been making a wish since I was a child. If someone can find this person for me, what conditions will I have?
You can agree to him."
This piece of cake! It’s too big!!!
In Takagi and Shiratori's minds, Sato has already put on a wedding dress to be their bride!
"So, Mr. Kuroki came to help solve the case because of this promise?"
"Yes... of course not!" Kuroki Ren almost said the wrong thing. He looked at Haihara Ai who raised this point with some annoyance, but was stared back by Haihara Ai without any hesitation.
Kuroki Jin...I don’t know why I’m still a little timid.
He quickly adjusted his mentality and explained to everyone who looked at him with suspicious faces: "I asked him casually because this topic happened to come up when I was chatting with Officer Sato. This promise... What kind of promise is this?
Is it a wish or I just found out about it just now."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Haiyuan Ai replied lightly, almost making Kuro Muren choke to the point of bleeding.
But that's what she said. Why is he so anxious here?
With a particularly frustrated sigh, Kuroki Jinqiu let it go: "Let's all brainstorm about Officer Sato." Don't stare at him.
"Then I want to eat a hundred portions of eel rice!"
Kuroki Ren:?
He was talking about the fourth clue...
Yuantai's brain circuit is not in the same area as everyone else, and the rest of the people around him are all going astray.
"I want to live in a castle in a tropical paradise!" Ayumi's wish is full of girlish dreams.
"Uh..."
"I want a ticket to the International Space Station."
"This..."
"If it were me, just give me the latest Prada leather bag." Haiyuan Ai added lightly.
When Conan heard this, he also made a request: "As for me, I want tickets for this World Cup."
Sato:……
She doesn't want to find the culprit anymore. I believe her father will understand her daughter's concerns about her wallet.
Isn’t it scary that today’s children are so smart?!
"Huh? If I can also participate..."
Kuroki Ren scratched his forehead with his index finger and showed an embarrassed smile:
"Can Officer Sato tell me a secret about Officer Miyamoto?"
"Hey?!"
"After all, I am inferior to others now." Kuroki Ren clasped his hands together and said with a flattering smile: "If you are really found by me, it will be settled."
Conan and Haibara Ai, who were blocked by Sato, narrowed their eyes at the same time.
