With his height, standing in the yard, it was difficult to see clearly what was going on inside the house.
But he saw Jiang Xia's increasingly serious expression.
Immediately afterwards, Conan noticed that his neighbor raised his hand slightly anxiously, as if he wanted to open the window.
...what happened inside?
Conan's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at the wall, trying to find a support point to climb up and take a look.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind and asked: "What are you doing?!"
Jiang Xia and Conan were startled at the same time. Looking back, they saw a tall police officer with a coral head.
——The Shiratori Police Department followed me at some point.
As a police officer of the Investigation Section 1, Shiratori Rensaburo often encountered Jiang Xia and picked up well-behaved and obedient prisoners from Jiang Xia.
Therefore, it is not difficult for him to see through some of Jiang Xia's behaviors under his gentle appearance.
At this time, Leng Buding saw Sato Miwako lying next to Jiang Xia. The Shiratori Police Department immediately became vigilant and secretly held the gun in his pocket to strengthen his courage.
However, before asking Jiang Xia in detail, he suddenly heard some faint rustling sounds coming from the house in front of him.
Shiratiao approached suspiciously, and saw through the window that the door of the side hall was opened.
A stout figure walked into the house - the store manager Masuo strode to the collapsed cabinet. He raised his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat off his head, then tore off the thumbtacks used to fix the fishing lines on the top of the bookcase and hid them.
Then he lifted the cabinet up and straightened it.
After that, without looking at the body on the ground, he bent down to pick up a few fallen books and stuffed them back into the bookcase one by one.
After smoothly completing this set of actions that had been simulated in his mind for a long time, the Masuo store manager breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his back. Only then did he realize that something was not right.
He frowned and looked at the window.
The weather is extremely cloudy today, and the lights in the house are very bright.
The Masuo store manager took a quick glance and saw his own reflection on the glass. After a few seconds, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
——There were three faces stuck to the window, looking at him with different expressions. A small piece of water vapor was faintly exhaled on the glass in front of the faces. It was unknown how long these people looked at him in shock.
The Masuo store manager and the three witnesses looked at each other, and there was a buzz in his head. He couldn't take a breath, covered his heart, and fell into a pool of blood on the ground.
…
ten minutes later.
Under questioning from the Shiratori Police Department, a new witness, the Masuo store manager's mentality collapsed and he confessed that he planned to kill his wife.
A few meters away, Sato Miwako rubbed her neck, walked to Jiang Xia, and asked suspiciously: "What happened just now?"
Conan was originally leaning next to the exercise bike to observe. When he heard this question, he froze slightly and slowly moved behind the bookcase.
Jiang Xia seemed very calm because of his innocence: "You suddenly came to arrest me. I thought there were gangsters, so I fought back... Maybe I accidentally knocked you unconscious at that time."
"..." Officer Sato was still a little confused. She was hugging someone from behind. In that position, it would be difficult for Jiang Xia to hit her neck... Oh, by the way, Jiang Xia had a swing stick, which might be able to hit her from an angle that she couldn't see.
Extended blow.
…Anyway, I just fainted for a short while, with no sequelae, and it did not delay the case. Although Miwako Sato still felt suspicious, she did not ask any further questions.
She then remembered another thing.
Miwako Sato glanced at the Shiratori Police Department and Officer Takagi who were busy next to the Masuo store manager, and pulled Jiang Xia away.
Then remind in a low voice:
"You'd better restrain yourself. Although it's not a bad thing to hate evil, beating a suspect is illegal after all——
"This morning I accompanied the Megu Police Department to the archives room and found that someone was retrieving case files related to you... Although I also think some suspects deserve to be beaten, there are always police officers who will object to this kind of behavior. If you are arrested for this
Use it as a target to scare the monkeys..."
"Retrieve the case files related to me?" Jiang Xia was startled, and then quickly remembered yesterday, after he finished talking about Moon Shadow Island, Amuro Toru looked thoughtful and walked away.
Jiang Xia pondered for a moment and nodded: "I understand, please pay attention next time."
"..." Sato Miwako's tone was stagnant.
...Although there is no problem with the attitude of admitting mistakes, after hearing Jiang Xia say "next time" too many times, she has become a little confused about the true meaning behind this guarantee.
I am debating whether to continue to emphasize the seriousness of the matter so that Jiang Xia will really "pay attention next time".
But at this time, Police Shiratori and Takagi Wataru had already seen her, and their eyes lit up at the same time: "Are you awake? Are you okay? What happened just now?"
Sato Miwako's thoughts were interrupted and she was instantly brought back to reality.
She remembered that when she was chasing the "suspicious person", she didn't recognize Jiang Xia and her car unfortunately overturned. She smoothed out her raised hair with a little embarrassment: "My foot slipped and hit the wall, and I accidentally knocked myself unconscious."
"Oh." Takagi Wataru touched the back of his head empathetically and said calmly, "You must be careful in the future. Well, how do you feel now? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Shiratori Police Department silently and suspiciously glanced at Jiang Xia next to Sato Miwako, vaguely feeling that the colleague he admired seemed to be covering up someone who attacked the police, but he had no evidence...
In the end, Officer Shiratiao could only ask Jiang Xia the reason for appearing here.
Jiang Xia repeated the excuse he just told Conan and excused it.
Not long after, other police officers arrived at the scene one after another and began to collect evidence and handle the follow-up.
Jiang Xia followed Officer Sato and others and first brought the Masuo store manager to the Metropolitan Police Department.
Before getting in the car, he remembered something and took Mrs. Masuo's cat that was left in the car - it had just climbed the wall, so it was not easy to take it with him.
…
When she arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department and was waiting to take notes, Jiang Xia suddenly remembered something.
He looked at Conan: "Why did you go to Masao's house with Officer Sato and the others just now? Did you encounter a case before?"
Conan nodded.
After clicking, he keenly discovered that Jiang Xia moved her fingers and unconsciously touched the swing stick hidden on her body.
Then the neighbor's tone was filled with slight regret and condemnation: "Why didn't you call me when there was a case?"
Conan: "..."
He silently moved a step behind the chair and his voice became softer:
"It's just an ordinary robbery case. The prisoner is a malnourished and unemployed young man, which is not suitable for you. Next time if we encounter a patient... cough, if we encounter a very dangerous prisoner, we will definitely ask you for help."
Jiang Xia nodded, moved his hand away from the swinging stick, and turned to touch Mrs. Masuo's lively Siamese cat.
Touching it, I remembered something.
...Speaking of which, Mrs. Masuo is dead and the store manager Masuo is about to go to jail. What should I do with this cat?
