Of course, when facing the police, Conan kept part of the truth, only saying that the murderer who killed Councilor Tunkou was probably among the people who were issued purple commemorative handkerchiefs.
The murder of a congressman in full public view is undoubtedly a major case.
Although the police were unable to detain all the guests, they only managed to find seven people to cooperate with the investigation.
Soon, the police officers began to look for the above people based on the list of seven people provided by the front desk.
Although the list does not come with photos of the guests, the people who received the invitation letter to this memorial service are more or less famous, and their faces can be found by searching online.
Just now, Miwako Sato was also looking for someone.
When she passed the banquet hall, she accidentally glanced inside and saw Jiang Xia.
Immediately afterwards, he noticed Pisk who was following Jiang Xia. In Miwako Sato's impression, this old man's name was Kenzo Masayama, and he happened to be one of the seven people who were assigned the purple commemorative handkerchief.
There were seven people in total, and she caught two at once.
However, when Miwako Sato crossed the banquet hall and chased her from the main entrance to the side entrance, Jiang Xia and the old man had already entered the winding and deep corridor.
Sato got sidetracked at the corner and arrived a little late.
Fortunately, in the end, she found the person in time... Thinking of this, Miwako Sato led the way and couldn't help but take a peek at Pisk who looked like he had just been beaten. She emphasized in her heart, well, in time.
In short, the two people who had been assigned purple handkerchiefs were detained by the police and led to the same room.
In order to prevent his suspiciousness from being exposed, Pisk could only cooperate with the investigation quietly. He looked at Jiang Xia from time to time, his wrinkled face squirming from gritting his teeth, and his face looked ugly as if he had just eaten someone alive.
…
Different from what Pisk thought was a routine interrogation, this time the police not only refused to let them leave, but also refused to allow them to communicate with the outside world.
Pisk thought of the sherry stored in the wine cellar, and could only feel sorry for Jiang Xia who had delayed his time, while comforting himself: Fortunately, he locked the door before leaving.
Apart from the door, the only thing that connected the wine cellar to the outside world was a chimney with a width of more than one meter.
An adult might be able to support the wall inside the chimney and climb up along it, but with Shirley's current size, it's absolutely impossible.
Moreover, Pisk remembered that he was in a hurry to capture Jiang Xia and left his laptop in the wine cellar.
There is a sender installed on that computer.
Now that his communication is blocked, Gin and others will definitely follow the locator to check.
Even before Ginjiu, another member of the unknown organization present would rush over to help clean up... Speaking of which, who is this unknown member? He is so good at paddling, and he agreed to be there at the critical moment.
He was always supported, but no one was seen the whole time, tui! What a worm in the organization.
Although his mood had already hit rock bottom, Pisk took an overall look at the current situation and felt that it was not a big problem. At most, he could give some of the credit that was about to be obtained to his teammates... Thinking of this, he reluctantly suppressed his unhappy mood and pulled
Open a stool and sit down while waiting for police questioning.
…
Although the Megure Police Department followed Kudo Shinichi's request and detained relevant suspicious persons.
But after that hasty conversation, he discovered that Kudo Shinichi actually had no next step, and the evidence was far from complete.
But if this is the case, these people will not be detained for too long...
After thinking about it, the eyes of the Mu Mu police department couldn't help but turn to Jiang Xia again.
Among so many guests, there were only seven people who had been given purple handkerchiefs. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xia was one of them.
Since Jiangxia himself meets the characteristics of "being given a purple handkerchief" that Kudo Shinichi cares about, then he may have a better understanding of what this "key point" is because he is among them.
Even if alcohol is harmful to people, Jiang Xia is not in good condition today, but the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse... And after thinking about it, the Mumu Police Department felt that based on Jiang Xia's daily performance, his speed in solving crimes is so fast that it is almost like some kind of instinct.
, what if he can really see through the murderer's true identity.
The more the police department thought about it, the more they thought there was something wrong.
He leaned over and looked out the window with half-open eyes. Jiang Xia, who seemed to be admiring the snow scene, came to her senses.
Then he told him in a low voice the cause and effect of today's incident.
Finally, I did not forget to add in a low voice: "If there is anyone among these six people who you think is suspicious, don't say it directly, just tell me secretly."
Those who can sit here, even if they are not wealthy, are at least elites from all walks of life.
If Jiang Xia's reasoning is wrong, it would be very offending.
And if the reasoning is correct...it will offend people even more.
The most fearful thing is that the reasoning is correct, but no evidence is found. In this way, it always feels like Jiang Xia will soon be accidentally killed because "you know too much".
In short, even if the murderer is to be announced, it will have to wait until the police actually catch him.
…
Jiang Xia was inexplicably fed a head full of incomplete spoilers for the Mumu Police Department version.
After hearing this, he pondered for a moment and nodded - anyway, he has now found an excuse not to solve the case. No matter what the police department says, he will just agree first and then take action.
After fooling the police department, Jiang Xia continued to look out the window.
Looking down from the window here, he could see most of the road. It was easier for him to judge the time to sneak away to the wine cellar.
…
In the wine cellar.
Haihara Ai was gradually awakened by the hard floor.
She raised her hands to cover her eyes in confusion, looking through her fingers at the ceiling that was higher than the ordinary room. When her eyes fell on the old chandelier on the ceiling, countless memory fragments jumped out quickly and joined together, waking her up.
memory.
Haiyuan Ai suddenly remembered the murder in the banquet hall, and the unknown person who took advantage of the chaos and took her away after the banquet hall was lifted.
She sat up in panic, turned her head and looked around, and found that she was in a strange room.
The room occupies a large area, the walls are old, and the edges are decorated with wooden wainscoting with simple patterns. There are many display cabinets with wine bottles in the middle.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is a dilapidated wine cellar. At a cursory glance, it seems that there is no one else in the room...
Hui Yuan Ai was in shock and looked at her with some doubts. At this time, the tips of her ears twitched slightly and she heard something in her pocket calling her name intermittently.
She reached in and touched it, and took out a thumb-sized, tan badge.
This is the Junior Detective Team badge made by the Doctor.
In order to catch Conan today, when she went out, Haihara Ai took the coat hanging at the door.
She had been staying at home for quite some time, and she wore this coat when she went out with the elementary school students last time. She put the badge in her pocket and forgot to take it out.
On the other hand, Conan was too anxious to pry into Gin's car and didn't have time to put on his badge.
After discovering that Haihara Ai was missing, Conan first tried to find Jiang Xia in the crowd and asked him to help. However, he was unable to find Jiang Xia's whereabouts and couldn't get through on the phone.
Conan had no choice but to try his luck again and find the doctor.
Dr. Ali was still driving the Beetle at this time, waiting on the nearby snow-covered street.
Conan asked him to try to contact Haihara Ai's badge, and then he was surprised and lucky to find that Haihara Ai actually carried it.
However, it may be because the badge is running out of power or the signal is poor. The signal point displayed on the screen for this badge, which is supposed to have a positioning function, is floating around from time to time, and it can only be vaguely positioned at the Cupido Hotel.
Around the city, its communication function is also subject to certain limitations. I don’t know how long it can last.
In the cellar.
Haiyuan Ai silently stared at the badge that was shouting from a distance. After hesitating for a while, he picked it up and answered a few questions briefly, and told the people in the car what he had observed.
Then she got up, walked to the wine cellar door, raised her hand and turned the doorknob.
Finding that the door was indeed locked, Haiyuan remained silent for a moment, losing his focus.
She faced the badge and whispered sadly: "The drug-related information and the organizational information I know are all stored in the hidden folder of the computer. The doctor knows the password. After the organization takes away my body, you can try to use
information to study APTX4869 and its antidote.
"In addition, after this incident, the number of people who know that it has a chance of causing adults to shrink will also increase. You can no longer be so leisurely in the future. Be careful to hide it and don't implicate Jiang Xia and the doctor... Okay, I have to say it."
It’s all said and done, go away and don’t contact me again, you’ll be implicated.”
"...Wait!" Conan's eyes twitched when he heard it. Affected by the signal, Haihara Ai's words were very intermittent, but the pessimism like his last words was conveyed undiminished.
It can't go on like this...
