Counting and counting, there are only a few detectives who can do it. Jiang Xia is the most outstanding one among them. From this point of view, it would be weird if Jiang Xia and Wu Zuo had no intersection at all.
Therefore, the conjecture of "Esuka = Usa" was temporarily placed in a relatively low position by Shuichi Akai.
Akai Shuichi: "..." However, after all, these two people are in the organization and are in Tokyo together. In a sense, if Usa has ulterior motives, it will be difficult for Jiang Xia to take the initiative to disconnect from him... These are also
Need to check carefully.
…
the other side.
After finishing the phone call with the FBI ace, Subaru Okiya put down his phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
——Compared to this little miscellaneous fish like him, Shuichi Akai is more likely to attract Usa's attention.
Since Mr. Akai is still very healthy, it means that Uzo has not attacked them yet, or has not noticed their movements at all. This is really...
How wonderful!
Subaru Okiya relaxed a lot invisibly, and broke away from the fear of being almost smashed into a cake just now. He couldn't help but start eating melon: Since it's not for him, then Usa is here to harm Jiang Xia.
?
...Always staring at the high school detective, what is the purpose of this guy? Do you want to compete with this modern Sherlock Holmes?
In any case, the speculation given by Shuichi Akai made Subaru Okiya breathe a sigh of relief.
His attention couldn't help but shift to the top of his head, wanting to see where the fourth floor was now.
However, compared to curiosity and desire to eat melons, in the end, reason and desire to survive definitely gained the upper hand.
After a lot of tangles, Okiya Subaru sat where he was and silently opened the group chat: "..." Fortunately, now that technology is advanced, everyone on the crew is good at eating melons. Even if he doesn't go, he can still start from there.
Read between the lines of other people's words and watch the progress there remotely.
Speaking of which, this is all thanks to the frontline reporter, Ms. Yoko.
…
The lounge on the fourth floor.
"Actually, we have seen the surveillance before." The police reminded while calling up the previous footage, "It was mainly facing the bathroom door, and the scene of the beating was not captured."
Jiang Xia looked at her watch: "It's okay, just leave it alone for now."
The police officer nodded and pressed a few keys. The image of the bathroom door on the fourth floor before the deceased fell was quickly replayed on the screen.
The situation in the picture is exactly what Hideki Sugimoto said: he spilled his drink, went into the bathroom, and left his luggage outside.
Not long after, the deceased Mr. Furuta also appeared in the picture. Of course, he was still alive at that time.
The deceased passed by the bathroom door and found an unattended suitcase and a backpack on it. He couldn't help but look at it twice, as if he was hesitating.
At this moment, the mobile phone in the backpack suddenly rang.
The deceased was startled, walked away a few steps, then stopped and looked around thoughtfully.
Until the bell rang, no one came to take care of the pile of luggage - its owner didn't seem to be nearby.
So soon, the deceased picked up his bag, dragged his suitcase, and left as if nothing had happened.
…
"Rather than looking for the owner, the way he looked around just now did look a little guilty." Police Department Mumu touched his fat chin and analyzed the scene, "Looks like a habitual thief."
In the surveillance, the deceased was unaware of the comments coming from outside the screen.
He took his luggage and quickly walked to the edge of the surveillance screen. Then he turned his back to this side and lowered his head to fiddle with the backpack he had picked up.
After a few seconds, Hideki Sugimoto walked out of the bathroom.
He rushed towards the deceased, and the two soon started an argument, pushing and shoving them to a place outside the surveillance screen.
"It's exactly what Mr. Sugimoto said." Police Department Megure looked at Jiang Xia with confusion, "Brother Jiang Xia, what's the problem with this?"
Haiyuan Ai glanced helplessly at the group of policemen. The surveillance cameras were placed here, and even she could see something was wrong: "The owner locked onto the target too quickly - after leaving the bathroom, most people should first look at the place where they put their luggage.
.If you find that your luggage is gone, you will look around in panic, and finally you will focus on the target and rush over, but..."
As he spoke, Hui Yuan Ai's voice gradually became lower.
——She is used to staying at home, unlike Conan who runs outside every day, so she has relatively little experience in "pretending to be a child".
Halfway through, she suddenly realized that these were not words that a first-grade primary school student should say.
Thinking of this, Haiyuan Ai looked around secretly with a guilty conscience.
Then it was discovered that the policemen who searched the first class were actually quite calm: it seemed that the children near Jiangxia were supposed to be taught like this.
But next to her, the people at the airport didn't look so calm. They all looked at her in surprise.
"..."
Haiyuan Ai's heart skipped a beat as she thought of the reporters who might be waiting outside and her shady identity - she couldn't expose herself.
She caught a glimpse of Conan next to her from the corner of her eye, and suddenly she was inspired. She showed a sweet childish smile to the adults in the room: "It's exactly what Brother Jiang Xia guessed before!"
Conan: "..." Haiyuan, when she sees him pretending to be a child, she would look at him with contempt. But now she herself is so skillful in pretending...
Jiang Xia seems to be used to helping fake children smooth things over.
He nodded, and continued what Haihara Ai had not finished: "But in the surveillance video, Mr. Sugimoto hardly hesitated, and rushed in the direction of the deceased as soon as he went out. It was more like he had expected that someone would take his luggage.
Let's go, count the time and rush out to intercept."
Sugimoto Hideki broke into a cold sweat. He forced a smile and said: "But you see, my suitcase is so big and very conspicuous. When I went out, I happened to be facing the direction where the deceased left, so when I looked up, I saw him holding it.
My suitcase - I didn't expect this, I just reacted faster than the average person."
Sato Miwako was doubtful. She always felt that in the surveillance camera, his movements became smoother and smoother. It was not something that could be achieved by "quick reaction" at all.
But based on this alone, it is indeed far-fetched to say that Hideki Sugimoto committed murder.
She turned to look at Jiang Xia.
Fortunately, detectives always make one reasoning after another and never run out of words.
As expected, Jiang Xia also inherited this advantage of being a detective. When he was refuted, he did not hold on to this point and just continued to talk about other things:
"There is also the mobile phone in the bag. It should be the one you left there specially. You prepared two mobile phones in advance, one was put into the bag and the other was carried with you.
"When you were hiding in the bathroom and saw the deceased passing by, you used the mobile phone on your body to make a call to the mobile phone in your bag, and the ringing attracted his attention.
"This is a tactful way of telling the deceased that the owner of the luggage is not nearby. If you want to steal the bag, this is an excellent opportunity."
