Be the god of death in the world of famous detectives

Chapter 118 The most important thing in a family is tidiness
Apparently someone thought so too.

Conan poked his head out from the corner, pushed his glasses, and there was a flash of light, "Can you tell us more about your actions? Also, the door of the deceased was locked from the inside. If you did it, can you tell us how you did it?" Did you leave?"

"...", this was a bit beyond the scope of Maeda Satoshi's knowledge, and he broke out in sweat instantly.

However, the words have been released, and Maeda Satoshi has no intention of going back on his word now. Even if the sweat flowed upstream, he could only bite the bullet and make it up, "At that time... I wanted the police to think that he committed suicide, so he forged it." At the scene, when I left, I fiddled with the crack of the door a few times with an iron hook, but I didn't expect to successfully hang the bolt from the outside of the door."

Conan's eyes sank, he was lying!

Not to mention the unreliable "door bolt method" that sounds unreliable, just from the fact that he thought Jiang Yuan's fall was in Jiang Yuan's own house, he could know that Maeda Satoshi was probably not the murderer.

And, speaking of it, the fact that he was still walking around in the clothes of the strange baron of the night after the incident was strange in itself.

...Compared to the murderer, he was more like a sudden impulsive, running out to take the blame.

"Then can you tell me the reason why you came out disguised as the strange baron in the dark night? And your motive for killing Jiang Yuan, how did you get in touch with other participants." Conan typed a small notebook and casually threw a few more questions When he came out, Maeda Satoshi continued to be dazed, unable to speak.

Henggou originally wanted to condemn Baishu for not being optimistic about the bear boy, but seeing that Conan asked several questions in succession, they were very reasonable, and immediately stopped talking about driving him out.

He patted Conan's head in relief, "The kid is very witty, is your future dream to be a policeman?"

"...Nope." Conan pushed his hand down in disgust. He is obviously a detective, so who is interested in being a policeman?

With Henggou's interruption, Maeda Satoshi had a little room to breathe, and he tried his best to mobilize his muscular brain to think.

Of these three questions, he was completely unaware of two.

After thinking about it, Maeda Satoshi decided to only choose the answer he knew, and the other two... just say that they don't want to answer. Anyway, the murderer, even if he doesn't cooperate with the police, it's fine.

After all, he was wearing the clothes of the strange baron of the night, and was caught by the young detective on the spot. In other words, he was brought here as a murderer. As long as the wrong answer is not too outrageous, there should be no problem...

Right.

After making up his mind, Satoshi Maeda took a deep breath and stated slowly, "A few years ago, Jiang Yuan stole my friend's very important program, which caused his company to fail, and my friend also jumped off the building because of this incident. .I wanted to avenge him, so I planned this murder."

Akiko Sayama in the corner suddenly covered her mouth, the corners of her eyes seemed to cry, but in the end, the tears didn't fall.

When she put her hand down again, her expression was as usual: deserted, and she couldn't tell whether it was sad or calm.

Seeing that the scene was going to be cold, Bai Shu nodded suddenly, "Oh, this motive is very tenable, true love."

Officer Henggou let out a groan, and then nodded. This motive is indeed very plausible...

What a ghost!
What kind of friend is so important that a person who has lived in a society ruled by law has the idea of ​​killing people, and if he listens to the words, that friend is still a man!

Now that he has a fiancée, Satoshi Maeda can't just kill someone for love!

Maeda Satoshi has no B number for his own flaws, and even because (he thinks) he made up a very good beginning and achieved his goal, he felt a strange sense of relaxation.

After being arrested, Satoshi Maeda let go of his twisted hands for the first time. He leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes and sighed, "I don't want to recall the past, anyway, you just want to catch the murderer. There's no need to tear people's scars, take me back to the police station."

"...", Henggou looked at him in disbelief, obviously thinking that there were still many doubts.

But seeing that Maeda Satoshi didn't seem to be prepared to reveal more, Henggou hesitated for a moment, and asked his subordinates to seal up the existing evidence, and planned to ask Maeda Satoshi carefully after taking Maeda Satoshi to the police station.

The police officer walked over with handcuffs in hand. Satoshi Maeda looked at the shiny metal handcuffs, sighed, and stretched out his hand silently.

The handcuffs fell and were about to be buckled to death, but at this moment, a hand suddenly pressed on his wrist, blocking the two cold iron rings.

Maeda Satoshi thumped in his heart, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Akiko Sayama walking beside him.

Although the woman's hand was warm on his wrist, she was cold and didn't even look at him.

Akiko Sayama looked straight at Henggou, "You have found the wrong person, the murderer is not this idiot."

"!" Although he was questioned, Henggou was not angry at all. He heard Akiko Sayama's subtext, and asked thoughtfully, "Then who do you think is the murderer?"

"You can also hear the loopholes in his excuse." Akiko Sayama brushed the shattered hair from his cheeks behind his ears, and answered him slowly, "Jiang Yuan will die because he indirectly killed someone, that Ren is not only Maeda Satoshi's friend, but also my brother."

"Maeda probably noticed something wrong with the way he tied the tie, or something else, and he suspected me earlier than you, so I wanted to pretend to be the strange Baron of the night to draw your attention away... Heh, because With his stupid move, my well-prepared plan went awry."

"Akiko, don't talk nonsense! I'm not trying to distract attention, I'm the strange baron of the night!" Satoshi Maeda paled, "Don't try to take the blame for me!"

"...", the onlookers felt a little full for some reason, and at the same time began to wonder, who is taking the blame for whom now.

What about the detective film that was promised, why did it suddenly become a romance film again?
In any case, Akiko Sayama's mind is much better than Satoshi Maeda's. When she was trying to get rid of the crime, she had one idea after another. Now she wants to get the crime back, and there is also a lot of evidence.

After all, there are some things that only the real murderer knows.

"Ever since my brother jumped off the building, I vowed to avenge him. In order to lure Jiang Yuan to the bait, I used the 'Dark Night's Strange Baron Virus' that I didn't have as a bait, and he really got involved like a fly smelling fishy. '", Akiko Sayama squeezed out a smile, she was trying to make herself look a little more sinister:
"In the evening, after finding an excuse to drive Satoshi Maeda out of the room, I used the virus as an excuse to invite him over, gave him sleeping pills, arranged the room as a secret room, and pushed him downstairs—this is the same as my brother The way he died, he deserves to die."

The audience was shocked.In the dead silence, Sayama Akiko turned her head to look around, and suddenly looked at Shirazu - she wanted to go to see Conan, but the target was too short, so she couldn't find it:

"The only thing I didn't expect was that there were detectives participating in this event. I wanted you to retreat, so I deliberately pushed the kid to make him fall into the swimming pool, but I didn't expect you to be so calm gas……"

"That child...is Conan?" Xiao Lan stared at Bai Shu with wide eyes, "When did it happen? Why don't I know anything about it?"

"..." Bai Shu's eyes flickered, and he decided to throw the blame back on Conan. Anyway, he was the one who first proposed to hide it. "I don't know, just ask Conan later."

Xiao Lan didn't plan to wait a while, a vein popped out of her forehead, and she rushed to find Conan, "Let him run around all the time! Also, why didn't you tell me such a big thing!"

Bai Shu looked at her menacing back, and prayed for Conan in his heart for two seconds, and soon, his attention was drawn away by another laugh.

After Akiko Sayama explained everything, the final ending was a merciless mockery of Satoshi Maeda, "And you! If you weren't meddling in your own business, how could my plan be seen through so quickly!"

One of the two asked three questions, and the other said that the scene reappeared. Who is the real murderer and who ran out to take the blame? The police already have a conclusion in their minds.

The handcuffs were finally placed on Akiko Sayama's hands. She turned her wrist indifferently, adjusted it to a slightly more comfortable angle, and followed the policeman to the door without hesitation, preparing to go to the police station.

"Akiko." Maeda Satoshi, who was ignored, stood up from his seat. This man, who had always looked a bit big, became sensitive for the first time, "...you describe yourself as so heartless, and you keep calling me Your full name, are you trying to draw a line with me?"

Akiko Sayama sneered, "It seems that you are a bit self-aware. Now that you've seen it, then stay away from me obediently. It's really a short life to have too much to do with mental retardation like you."

"Ahem, use civilized words." Henggou cast a reproachful glance at her.

No one paid any attention to him, even Satoshi Maeda, who was always polite, regarded Henggou as nothing, but now he only has his wife in his eyes, "Akiko, no matter what you say, I will never forget you."

"I'll be waiting for you to come back!"

pat.

Akiko Sayama turned her back to Maeda Satoshi, still expressionless, but a tear slid down her cheek and shattered on the back of her hand.

This was the first time she regretted her decision to take revenge after her brother died.

At the moment Maeda Satoshi jumped out to take the blame for her, she realized intuitively for the first time that besides her family, there would be another person who loved her so much.

Unknowingly, her future no longer belongs to her alone, but has been hooked up with Satoshi Maeda long ago.

It's just that she didn't notice it before experiencing this incident.

... In other words, if it weren't for this incident, she might never have found out.

Akiko Sayama paused, and suddenly felt the urge to turn her head and throw herself into Maeda Satoshi's arms, but the cold handcuffs on her wrists reminded her that it was too late.

… All people will pay for what they do.

Jiang Yuan killed her brother, and now he is dead.And she killed Jiang Yuan to avenge her brother, and the price may be to lose another family member.

If he had known A Cong's intention earlier, would he have acted so without hesitation?

……she does not know.

Just when Akiko Sayama was in a daze, the young detective next to him who had little sense of presence suddenly spoke. His words were like a thunderbolt, which instantly pulled Akiko Sayama out of the emotional vortex.

"There's no need to be so pessimistic. If you work hard, you two should be able to meet again at the gate of the police station."

"...", everyone looked at Bai Shu who suddenly spoke in unison, with different eyes.

Bai Shu paused, and with a bunch of unclear eyes, he said firmly, "Although Satoshi Maeda is not your accomplice, what he did can be regarded as obstructing the investigation, so in a short time, you are still on the way. "

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot." Henggou slapped his forehead, and quickly asked two people to handcuff Maeda Satoshi as well.

"..." Akiko Sayama watched all this helplessly, then turned to look at Bai Shu, looking like she wanted to pounce on him and bite out two holes for him.

In the complicated atmosphere, the couple was taken into the police car separately, and the police car roared away.

Amidst the humming sound of the sea breeze, Xiaolan held Conan in her arms, and looked at Bai Shu inexplicably, "Brother Zhishu..."

Conan touched his forehead that Xiaolan had slapped hard, and said fairly, "Although Brother Naoki doesn't look at the occasion when he speaks, he's right. Satoshi Maeda's behavior is indeed breaking the law. Respond, wait for him..."

Seeing Xiaolan glaring at her sinisterly, Conan hurriedly changed the subject, trying to make amends, "But because of those reasons, the judge may commute their sentences at the discretion of the time!"

"……Ok". " Xiaolan nodded sullenly.

……

I don't know if it's because someone died, or because the "Strange Baron of the Night" program as a prize doesn't actually exist, or because the host was taken away, and no one is paying for the room fee... In short, everyone is gone and continues to wait. Planning to go down, they all checked out and left the next day.

On the way back, Conan flicked through his notepad, his whole body listless.

While Xiaolan was explaining the details of the case to Mori Kogoro in front, Conan complained to Bai Shu in a low voice, "I feel that the cases I encountered recently are getting easier... No, it should be said that they are always before I solve all the mysteries. It all fell apart by itself.”

He lit his notebook with a pen, "Why Jiang Yuan's room is locked, why Akiko Sayama can throw people on the knight's sword, and how the blind grandpa's son died, some of which I have already guessed , but I can’t say it... It’s so uncomfortable, it’s like going out and suddenly forgetting whether the door of the house is locked or not.”

"Can't it be simpler?" Bai Shu dragged the suitcase and looked at him with weird eyes. It's really difficult for children nowadays to understand, and the workload is less, so they are not happy?
Masochism?
……

After returning home, there was another round of weather changes that came as soon as we said.

Just like there is an invisible prop to change the scene, one click, ding dong, autumn is here.

Bai Shu was prepared to go to the convenience store to buy a baby warmer. On the way home, he saw Conan hiding in the small alley next to him, with a voice changer in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, muttering for some reason.

But when he got back to the house, he knew right away.

"Are you really not coming, Shinichi?" Xiaolan held the phone and subconsciously used a coquettish tone, "I haven't seen Matsumoto-sensei since graduation, you're not at all curious about her being at the wedding. What will it be like?"
