Some criminals who had nothing to do followed Shiratori Rensaburo and surrounded him.
"How could the Gumeimen criminal think so? Isn't it too strange?"
"That's right, didn't everyone already have this awareness from the day they stepped into the gate of Search Class 1?
We are responsible for all the major murders in Tokyo, and we have always faced the most vicious murderers, and being retaliated against is nothing new."
Matsumoto Kiyonaga, the manager of the Search Section 1, also came over and said in a calm voice:
"Gumeimen Criminal, in the thirty years I have been engaged in criminal work, I have experienced many similar things.
People often even died for this, but no one would ever blame the criminal who caught the criminal in the first place.
Although some family members of the victims may not understand, I can guarantee that every criminal who searches the first section is not a narrow-minded guy.
When facing criminals, we are always united. Fighting crime is our duty and the meaning of our existence. Don't have so many worries."
Takagi Shita also followed: "That's it, Gumeimen Criminal, we are teammates, and we should have faced criminals together.
If the Megu Police Department and I knew about what happened last time, we would definitely have helped. After all, there are so many dangerous gunmen and we cannot turn a blind eye."
The Megure Police Department came over and patted Komemon Shizuo on the shoulder, saying sincerely: "Komemon-kun, you are not alone. You have to trust the colleagues around you."
"You guys are really verbose, but I didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. It was just Sato's guess." Shizuo Komemon turned around uncomfortably, not looking at them.
Sato Miwako clapped her hands knowingly and said with a smile: "Hey, hey, it's all my guess, everyone should leave~"
There was a burst of good-natured laughter, and everyone went about their business again.
"Manager Matsumoto! Over there... there seems to be something wrong in the bridal lounge..."
Finally, a criminal found something unusual. Matsumoto Kiyonaga was shocked. He ran two steps quickly, turned to the back of the church, and looked at the second floor on the other side. He saw some burnt marks on a certain window...
…
Everyone stood in the open space in front of the church, watching silently as the ambulance took Sayuri Matsumoto away. They looked at Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who was obviously very generous, but at the moment very rickety, and no one said a word.
"Why?" Matsumoto Kiyonaga asked with a trembling voice, "Why do you do such a thing?"
Takasugi Toshihiko, who was also lost and slumped on the ground, asked without answering, "You should have noticed that Sayuri's room was on fire when you were behind the church, right? Why didn't you come to save her?"
Matsumoto Kiyonaga said in a hard and authentic voice: "At that time, there was smoke and fire everywhere behind the church, and my attention was all on the enemies. I didn't notice that the second floor was also hit by a Molotov cocktail.
Moreover, my subordinates are all facing danger, and I cannot abandon them... Even if I find out, I can only hope that you will put out the fire quickly..."
"Isn't Sayuri facing danger?!" Toshihiko Takasugi stood up suddenly, grabbed Matsumoto Kiyonaga by the collar and asked.
The scars on Matsumoto Kiyonaga's face twitched, and he said with red eyes: "This is my duty!"
Takasugi Toshihiko was angry, "Duty! Duty! In order to catch criminals, you can ignore Sayuri's life or death! In order to catch criminals, you can abandon my mother who was injured by the criminals you are chasing! You are obviously capable of saving them!!"
Matsumoto Kiyonaga was startled for a moment. Looking at Takasugi Toshihiko's face, he suddenly remembered something, "It's you...you are that child back then..."
"That's right, twenty years ago, if you had not chased the criminal but used a police car to take my mother to the hospital, she would not have died..."
Takasugi Toshihiko's voice dropped as he spoke. There was no anger, only emptiness, "Arrest me, you are not worthy to be Sayuri's father, and I am not worthy to be her husband."
Matsumoto Kiyonaga stared at him blankly and murmured: "I hurt her...but why don't you just come to me?"
Takasugi Toshihiko said: "I want you to taste the pain of losing a loved one, and I also want to see if you will make the same decision as you did when your daughter is in danger.
Maybe I should comfort you, after all, you really did this, and you didn’t treat my mother, a stranger, any differently from your biological daughter."
"It may be useless to say this now, but... I did not notice that your mother was hit. What happened today is probably because of my eyes that only stare at the prisoner..." Matsumoto Kiyoshi said.
Tears flowed down the scar.
Kazumi, Sayuri Matsumoto's good friend in college, suddenly broke away from the crowd and rushed to Takasugi Toshihiko and slapped him hard.
Takasugi Toshihiko didn't react at all, he just suffered.
Yimi yelled at him with red eyes: "Do you know that she has already known that you approached Sayuri for revenge?"
Takasugi Toshihiko's lifeless face suddenly moved again.
"Because you look a lot like her first love, she asked me to help with the investigation, but she found out what happened twenty years ago...
She always wanted to apologize to you, but she didn't dare to ask for your forgiveness. She struggled painfully alone for a long time..."
Conan, who was listening on the side, finally realized that Sayuri Matsumoto's behavior at that time was not because she was hurt by the person she loved, but because it was too painful and struggling to be caught in the middle. She hoped that her death would eliminate the hatred...
Hey, Junyan, am I beautiful today?
"ah--"
Takasugi Toshihiko covered his head and knelt on the ground screaming like crazy.
…
At the entrance of the hospital, Shizuo Komemon was on the phone with Ayako Suzuki.
"...This is roughly what happened. If the Suzuki family has a way, can you help?"
Suzuki Sonoko stood in front of him and raised her head and said dissatisfiedly: "So, you don't have to call my sister, don't I just stand here? Mr. Matsumoto is my teacher, how could I ignore it?"
Shizuo Komemon pressed her forehead, pushed her away, and talked to Suzuki Ayako by himself.
"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you..."
Seeing him hang up the phone, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but said: "Do you have any objections to me?"
"No."
"Then why don't you come to me? My surname is Suzuki too, and she is my teacher. I will definitely take care of it. There is no need to call my sister to ask for help."
Shizuo Komemon was sitting on the steps, silently waiting for the news, and suddenly felt a little emotional.
One is that I feel that I have the temperament of a creditor. If I owe once, I will not be afraid of owing a second time. If I owe more, I will not worry about it.
Another one is that I have a friend from a chaebol background, which is really convenient.
It didn't take long for Shizuo Komemon to receive a reply from Suzuki Ayako. She contacted top experts in this field. After confirming Sayuri Matsumoto's condition, she said that burns could be cured and skin transplants could also be arranged. No accident, it should be
There will be no sequelae.
Suzuki Sonoko curled her lips and said, "You're such a fool. If you had asked me to come, I would have confirmed it a long time ago, and you still have to go to such trouble."
Shizuo Fumimon ignored her and immediately called Miwako Sato and asked her to inform Matsumoto Kiyonaga of the good news.
Miwako Sato on the opposite side turned on the speakerphone directly. Matsumoto Kiyonaga was so excited that he couldn't stop crying after hearing the news, "Thank you so much, Komemon Criminal Justice, you have been a big help..."
"Don't take it to heart. Take care of the things over there and come here quickly. Before she wakes up, don't let her wake up without seeing a relative."
"Hi, thank you..."
"You have time to talk about this, why not hurry up and hang up." Shizuo Komemon was not used to these words and hung up directly.
By the way, you have to take the time to do some research and introduction. Defending people can inspire criminals.
If Takasugi Toshihiko hadn't exposed too much himself and confessed when Conan asked, it would have been difficult to collect enough evidence to prove that he did it.
If you want to verify the murder by hiring a murderer, you have to catch the contact person and obtain a confession, and you also have to verify the transaction records and evidence of money transactions between the two parties. These are no small troubles.
Especially for Japan, which currently seriously lacks control measures, it will be difficult to detect if the other party is more careful.
If future criminals follow this example, they will really have to rely on surveillance...
