Chapter 187 Tokyo Criminal Arrested Osaka Criminal
Hattori Heiji noticed Sakata Criminal's unusual reaction very keenly, but he couldn't believe it and couldn't accept the speculation.
Hattori Heiji forced a very forced smile and looked at Sakata Criminal. Some organizations couldn't speak properly and said: "Sakata-san, why are you...why are you so stingy.
I just lent it to the Gumeimen Police Department for use. We can’t give the Tokyo people the impression that Osaka people are stingy, right?”
Criminal Sakata clenched his fists and opened his mouth. It took him a long time to say a word.
"Sorry... it's a little inconvenient, there's... some personal privacy stored in it..."
"Is that so..." Hattori Heiji's hands seemed to have nowhere to place, and he rubbed his hands on his pants. Then he looked up with a complicated expression and asked, "Is that so?"
The masseter muscles of Sakata Criminal's jaw tightened, "That's it."
Shizuo Komemon sighed quietly, "If it's not convenient for you to lend it to me, would it be convenient for you to take it out yourself? Just let us see the screen."
After saying that, he looked to the side of the coffee shop owner who had no idea what the situation was like, "Can you still call back the call you received?"
The coffee shop owner scratched his hair and nodded blankly, "Okay, but you need to go back to the store because the call was made to the store's landline."
"That's fine." Shizuo Komemon's eyes fell on Hattori Heiji again, "There are more and more people watching."
This reminder forced Hattori Heiji to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise the news that the Osaka police had been convicted of a serial murderer would soon spread.
Hattori Heiji closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Toyama Kazuha beside him looked at him with some worry.
When he opened his eyes again, he no longer hesitated. He took a step closer with firm eyes, placed his hand heavily on Sakata's shoulder, and said in a low voice:
"Sakata-san, although I always say that detectives are the best, in my heart I always think that the Osaka police are the best in Japan.
You are engaged in a job where you can legally hold a gun and protect people. As the number one Osaka police officer in Japan, haven't you ever been proud of it?"
Seeing that he remained silent, Hattori Heiji pursed his lips, reached out and took out the police manual from Sakata Criminal's breast pocket, opened it, and held the cherry blossom sign in front of the latter's eyes.
"You look at it."
Criminal Sakata closed his eyes.
"Open your eyes and look at it, bastard!" Hattori Heiji suddenly grabbed his collar with his other hand.
Even if he roared angrily, Hattori Heiji lowered his voice to a level where only a few people nearby could hear him.
Criminal Sakata opened his eyes, but turned his head.
"sorry……"
"Is it useful to be sorry? You are not sorry for me, you are sorry for it, you are sorry for yourself!" Hattori Heiji pressed his forehead against the other person's head and looked at the other person.
"Heiji..." Toyama Kazuha called out worriedly.
Seeing this, Shizuo Komemon spoke again, "Isolate the onlookers first, maintain order, and don't let anyone destroy the scene. Remember to seal up the phone number, and wait to handle the rest after returning to the Osaka Police Station."
Hattori Heiji calmed down a little after hearing this. Looking at more and more onlookers around him, he had no choice but to suppress the irritability in his heart and start doing trivial tasks that he usually wouldn't care about.
Criminal Sakata made no move to resist and allowed Hattori Heiji to take another phone from his pocket and seal it with an evidence bag.
The pistol was also taken away. Originally, Criminal Sakata thought that he could commit suicide with the pistol when the incident was revealed, but now he can no longer do so.
If he really commits suicide in fear of crime in the street, things will no longer be under control and all the Osaka police will be humiliated along with him.
There were isolation tapes and other things in the trunk of the police car. After Hattori Heiji took care of everything, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, returned to the body, and looked at Shizuo Komemon with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Thank you very much."
The corners of Shizuo Komemon's mouth raised slightly, "Even without me, I believe you can find out the truth."
Hattori Heiji shook his head, feeling a little depressed, "I am confident that I will be able to find out the truth eventually, but I don't know how many people will die by then...
To be honest, before you suspected Sakata of committing a crime, I never thought about him at all."
He paused and continued, "And I would like to thank you for showing mercy to the Osaka police."
"It seems that you actually admire your father very much." Shizuo Komemon said suddenly.
Hattori Heiji suddenly became uncomfortable and curled his lips, "Who would worship that stinky dad with fox eyes? I just... I am also from Osaka after all. Isn't this normal?"
Seeing the expressions of "I just pretended to believe it" on the faces of Komemon Shizuo and others, Hattori Heiji was on pins and needles and said quickly: "What, let me first ask Sakata-san why he killed someone."
Criminal Sakata was placed in the back seat of the police car. He had no intention of escaping and just waited silently for processing.
Hattori Heiji leaned against the car door and asked in a low voice: "Tell me about it. It will take a while for the other criminals to arrive. Tell me why you want to do such a thing."
Criminal Sakata slowly raised his head and looked at the body on the hood with a bitter smile on his face.
"There is no way. The prosecution period for murder is only 15 years. I can't rely on the law to punish these murderers who killed my father 20 years ago."
Suzuki Ayako, who was leaning on Gu Meimen Shizuo's chest, couldn't help but ask: "Shizuo-kun, what does this mean? Isn't it true that as long as the murderer has been absconding for 15 years, there is no way for them to accept legal sanctions?"
Shizuo Komemon nodded slightly, "Any criminal law system has such provisions, mainly because cases that take too long make it too difficult to search for criminal evidence and the judicial costs are too high.
If there are no restrictions, it will greatly waste judicial resources, leaving insufficient energy to deal with the current cases."
In a sense, the disagreement he had with Conan before about possible errors and omissions in the case had a similar meaning.
Although idealism is good, one must face reality. After all, both police and judicial resources are limited, and it is impossible to invest unlimited resources in a case.
It's just that the issue of the prosecution period would be even more ruthless if it were evaluated by Kenjie. With Shizuo Komemon's understanding of Kenjie, he could even guess what Kenjie would say:
The essence of crime is the destruction of social order, and the destruction of order caused by the case 20 years ago has long been restored, so it is not high and meaningless to pursue the "cost-effectiveness".
Probably like this.
For the entire judicial system, from a macro perspective, the prosecution period is indeed the best choice for "using good steel on the blade". However, when it falls on individuals, it becomes an unbearable source of pain.
Sakata Criminal seemed to not want to continue talking about this matter, and was silent again. After a while, he suddenly remembered something and said to Hattori Heiji:
"By the way, I'm still imprisoning Numabuchi Kiichiro in the wooden house on Minoh Mountain. You should take him back as soon as possible."
