Ueno's residence for the first half of this year was very close to the mobile coffee shop where Heiwa Shoji worked. The distance between the two was only about two or three minutes.
Then due to some chance, the two met, and then Hei and Masaharu became each other's companions.
Judging from the investigation of the two people's movement trajectories and scope of activities, this is entirely possible.
But as said before, criminal investigations must be down-to-earth.
For some things, even if you know that they may be facts, you still have to investigate, come up with more convincing evidence, and run for it until it is actually confirmed.
After all, finding the button at the parking lot and thinking it was a clue left by Hattori Heiji all depended on Karasawa's understanding of Hattori Heiji.
He knew that a detective of Hattori Heiji's level would definitely try his best to leave clues even if he was caught.
Especially when he is around.
If you put yourself in someone else's shoes, you will know that if Karasawa was caught by gangsters, then if he knew that Conan or Hattori Heiji were around, he would definitely try his best to leave information.
But there is no evidence for the signals left by this tacit understanding between smart people.
In the case, these are all speculations, fantasies without any basis or evidence.
Therefore, although Karasawa reported this information before and suspected that this person was an accomplice of Ueno, the investigation headquarters led by the agency is still focusing on Ueno.
Of course, the information provided by Karasawa was not ignored. At least the big guys at the Metropolitan Police Department still attached great importance to Karasawa's judgment.
After all, the agency doesn’t know about Tangze’s record, how can they not know about it?
Since joining the company, Tang Ze has made great achievements many times.
For example, in "The Billion Robbery", he used his unique judgment to find the stolen money. For example, in "The Stolen Case of the Toyo Gunpowder Store", it was pointed out that Moritani Teiji wanted to destroy the asymmetrical building in the early days of his career because of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
etc.
In these major cases, Tang Ze's unique insights and precise judgment make the superiors dare not ignore his opinions easily. After all, this is Tang Ze's reputation gained through hard work!
But rules are rules. If all criminals were like Tang Ze, making random judgments and speculations without basis, everything would be in chaos.
What if this guy with a criminal record happened to be passing by and dropped a red button that was the same as the clown's coat?
If he is rashly included in a large-scale search, and if it is discovered in the end that the wrong person has been arrested, no one will be able to shoulder this responsibility.
Therefore, with the agency in the driver's seat, the Metropolitan Police Department acquiesced to Karasawa leading his troops from the three departments and acting under his judgment, which was regarded as a special team that was different from the action plans of the large forces.
Mainly because the agency relied on orders from above to intervene and had a disregard for the life and death of the hostages, which made the bosses of the Metropolitan Police Department angry.
After all, those guys will definitely put the blame on their Metropolitan Police Department!!
They are responsible for killing the terrorists, and the Metropolitan Police Department is responsible for taking the blame...ah, they are responsible for rescuing the hostages.
When the time comes to divide the responsibilities, the scene will... tsk tsk...
Therefore, letting Karasawa and Officer Megure lead the three departments to act alone is also the hope that the big bosses have high hopes that Karasawa can make another extraordinary achievement.
Moreover, finding the suspect's fingerprints from the ticket stub was their fault. Even if they found nothing later, it was enough to explain.
Karasawa was naturally aware of the above meaning. In addition to the displeasure of the Metropolitan Police Department bosses, he even felt that there should be some factors behind this that Hattori Hei was hiding behind the scenes.
After all, his son is also among the hostages now. If the agency really forces an attack, the most he can do is take care of him. He is the primary rescue target during the operation. The danger is still very high.
From this, you can also see the strength of the agency, especially after receiving the order from the superiors, even if the son of the Nishi-Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters was among the hostages, there was still no plan to withdraw the attack.
But this is not what Karasawa wants to see, so he needs to find another way when the agency is trying its best to investigate Ueno Hirayama.
And Heihe Masaharu is just the other breakthrough he needs!
After a series of investigations, they finally found the possibility of an intersection between Ueno Hirayama and Heiwa Shoji, and confirmed that the direction of the investigation was correct.
And just when the investigation at this stage made progress, everyone in the three departments was excited about it and wanted to investigate along the route and find out what was going on.
This early morning, in a place unknown to everyone.
Things have changed quietly.
……….
A red sun slowly rises on the horizon, emitting golden and vibrant sunlight.
The rising sun also generally means rebirth and a new beginning.
Looking at the rising sun, Ueno Hirayama sincerely hoped that this country would be as vibrant as the rising sun.
He was looking forward to it so much, but just thinking about it was useless, so he chose to act.
Although his methods were a bit extreme, he had no intention of harming the hostages. He would only let the hostages go when the government agreed to his request.
And he will choose to commit suicide to show that he is different from those saboteurs.
While atoning for his sins, he also hoped that his death would wake up the world.
And it’s easy to start taking action today.
Blue smoke flowed out of his lungs and he threw down the cigarette butt and walked into the room.
Taking the coffee from "Rabbit", Ueno took a sip and then said in a deep voice: "Then, let's get started!"
Hearing this, Huang Mao chuckled and immediately called the Metropolitan Police Department.
After waiting for a while, a rough male voice rang from the phone. The rabbit on the side ignored the threat and clicked to play the already processed audio.
[We have eight children in our hands. If we want to exchange the lives of the children, we ask the Neon government to release the five political prisoners and demand a ransom of 2 billion.
The time limit is 22:00 tonight. At the Tokyo City Heliport, prepare the helicopter, load it with five political prisoners, 2 billion yen, and the pilot on standby.
The five political prisoners are...Naruto Uchiha, Sasuke Namikaze...】
"How is this going!!"
After hearing the recording that was completely different from what he imagined, Ueno was furious. He stood up suddenly and looked at the three people and asked: "2 billion ransom, heliport and so on...what the hell is going on!!"
But the three of them didn't respond at all.
The next moment, pain spread through the whole body, and as the strength of the whole body disappeared, the cup in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously, and the whole person fell straight to the ground.
But when Ueno looked at the grinning Huang Mao, Heihe Zhengji who looked at him coldly, and the rabbit who turned his head away and didn't dare to look at him, he understood everything.
