The owner of the souvenir shop was stunned by Amuro Toru's observation. He didn't know why the two young men rummaged through the pile of keychains as if they had a target as soon as they entered the door.
Then one of the young men handed the pendant to another young man with darker skin, who kept staring at him.
No wonder he was staring at the merchandise store owner suspiciously at this time.
In fact, after the serial arson cases, this red rabbit was always left at the scene. Suddenly, seeing the exact same thing here, no matter who it is, will doubt this souvenir shop owner.
Fortunately, it was not Mouri Kogoro who came with him.
Otherwise, Uncle Maori would be alone, and if Conan was not around, the owner of the souvenir shop might be taken back to the Metropolitan Police Department for interrogation.
"Um, what's the problem with this gentleman?"
The owner of the souvenir shop, who had been stared at by Toru Amuro for a long time, couldn't stand the look and had to ask.
After coming back to his senses, Toru Amuro smiled apologetically at his boss, indicating that he was just distracted, while calming down the excitement of suddenly seeing the key evidence.
As an elite public security agent and a senior member of the organization, Toru Amuro could naturally tell that this thing was a mass-produced commodity.
There are not 100 merchants but dozens of merchants carrying this kind of pendants, so it is quite difficult to investigate.
The three fire scenes were not far from Yoneka Town, so Toru Amuro felt that the life trajectory of the arsonist must also be near Yoneka Town and Aipado Town.
The possibility of opening a souvenir shop in Yokohama is slim.
However, nothing is certain. Toru Amuro decided to wait until they left and then ask his men to come here to investigate whether the souvenir shop owner had an alibi when the crime occurred.
Now Jiang Yuan has caught a thread in this complicated case. As long as you follow the clues and dig deeper, there will always be a result.
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yuan. Not to mention that this half-time detective looked like he was a bit fussy!
"Boss, we bought this pendant and will give you the money."
Toru Amuro looked at the price of the pendant and then handed over a banknote to the owner of the souvenir shop. Although the pendant seemed to be about the same size as the evidence left at the scene, more professional testing was still needed to prove that the red horse left at the scene was this thing.
.
Ehara didn't say anything when Toru Amuro bought the pendant. After the owner of the souvenir shop asked for the money, Ehara and Toru Amuro left the souvenir shop and returned to the car one after another.
"Jiangyuan, you are indeed a detective who has been in the newspapers. I didn't expect that you have found a breakthrough in a case that the Metropolitan Police Department has no clue about!"
Toru Amuro started the car, omitting the honorific in his words, and intended to get closer to Ehara.
Jiang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I'm lucky, I happened to find this thing familiar. I guess I won't be so lucky in future cases."
"But then again, does it matter if you are at the Metropolitan Police Department?"
"If it's convenient, ask them to compare this pendant with the evidence left at the scene. If the materials and dimensions are the same, then find the manufacturer of this pendant."
"When the time comes, we will roughly know the scope of the suspects by looking at who gets the goods from the manufacturer."
Jiang Yuan was not at all as listless as when he was at home, but instead began to arrange follow-up work for Toru Amuro.
Amuro Toru nodded after hearing this. He had thought the same thing just now, so he bought a pendant back.
If this serial arsonist plans to use this pendant to provoke the police, he will definitely have a lot of Guan Yu Red Rabbit Horse pendants in his hands.
But if you buy in large quantities at the same retail store, the store owner will definitely remember it, so the best way is to go to the wholesale market or buy directly from the manufacturer.
At that time, as long as you get the buyer's list from the manufacturer, you will be able to get a large list of suspects.
Although there are many suspects, it is better than having no clues now.
Suddenly, Toru Amuro paused in shifting his gear and became slightly distracted.
All the matters arranged by Jiang Yuan just now seemed reasonable, but there was only one thing that made Toru Amuro feel that something was wrong.
That is, Jiang Yuan's method of reasoning or solving crimes is very different from that of detectives in Tokyo.
The reason why Toru Amuro got together with Ehara was because he was not only a middle-level and high-level person with a code name in the organization, but also a middle-level leader of the Metropolitan Police Department’s Public Security Department.
At least he has a group of people for him to motivate.
Detectives on the market generally work alone. Even if there are clues, they prefer to dig deeper on their own. They will only rely on the power of the police after narrowing the suspects to a certain range.
However, Ehara's deployment just now was completely carried out by a superior or professional with sufficient logistical strength. Toru Amuro would not find it strange if it were placed on Mouri Kogoro.
Because Mouri Kogoro was also a criminal police officer at the Metropolitan Police Department before, he also has a certain influence within the Investigation Division. At the same time, the police's case-handling thinking will also affect him.
But Gangwon is different. A high school student in Gangwon has never experienced systematic police academy training. How can he be so familiar with this system?
So the question is, who is Jiang Yuan?
Things are getting more and more unpredictable...
The true identity of Uozuka Saburo, Toru Amuro, has not yet been discovered, and the relationship between Ehara and Uozuka Saburo is also a mystery.
Now that the fog has enveloped Jiang Yuan again, Toru Amuro feels that this time a lot of his brain cells will die.
Whether they are police officers, agents, or even detectives, they are never afraid of complicated cases. What they are more afraid of is that there is no breakthrough in the mess.
Tohru Amuro is now full of confidence. In his opinion, Jiang Yuan is the breakthrough point of all incidents. As long as Jiang Yuan is dealt with, everything will be solved!
I have to say that Toru Amuro’s idea really has no problem at all.
Jiang Yuan, who is an undercover agent from three parties, does have a lot of information about their respective organizations, but it is a pity that Jiang Yuan, who has read the original work, naturally knows this policeman who regards the country as his lover.
Toru Amuro is more like playing cards with Akira Ehara, how can you tell me how to lose?
.........Please give me a monthly ticket......
There was no words all the way, and Toru Amuro safely sent Jiang Yuan home. Because he was not in a hurry, Toru Amuro did not use drag racing this time.
"See you tomorrow, Jiang Yuan. I will inform you when the test results come out tomorrow."
Toru Amuro bid farewell to Ehara at the gate of Ehara's house. The energetic Toru Amuro decided to let his subordinates work overtime after a long absence.
Jiang Yuan waved his hand at the disappearing taillights and swallowed what he was about to say before he could say it...
To be honest, it seems that the commission recommended by Hattori Heiji is also related to this arson case, but Amuro Toru ran too fast and Ehara didn't have time to tell him the news...
