Chapter 1180 The Mystery of Red, White and Yellow(1/2)
"Hey, we've already explained everything we can say this morning, and we've also taken notes. What else do you want us to do?"
"Yes, officer, you don't really think of us as arsonists, do you?"
The three people who got off the police car, except Toru Amuro, the other two complained as usual.
Police Department Zhang stood in front of the three people and explained: "I am a little rushed this morning, and there are still some things that I need to reconfirm with you..."
"Okay, now please go over there with my men."
After all, Police Officer Zhang is an old police officer and still has experience.
He did not directly express his suspicions, nor did he disclose the testimony provided by the Junior Detective Team.
However, Toru Amuro had already guessed that the reason why the three of them were invited here again was because the police believed that there was an arsonist among the three.
In fact, he also had some doubts about the sudden fire in Mima Village Apartment.
Originally, if the police could not find anything, he would have used the police force to investigate.
But now it seems that this is not necessary.
The arsonist should be one of the other two people, as long as he is found...
Toru Amuro looked at the two people walking in front with his eyes like a hawk. When their eyes crossed, he saw a familiar man standing in front of him.
"teacher?"
"Hi~Xiao An."
Qin Zhibo stepped forward and said hello to Toru Amuro.
Police Officer Zhang next to him saw it and looked at the two of them, "Do you know each other?"
Qin Zhibo introduced with a smile: "Xiao An is my disciple, and he was my assistant before."
"I see……"
There was a flash of memory in Police Officer Zhang's eyes. When he routinely interrogated the three people in the morning, the other two were a little irritable. Only this young man was very calm and kept taking the opportunity to express his own opinions.
"Teacher, you..."
Amuro lowered her perspective and saw the young detective team next to Qin Zhibo, so she changed her words: "Why are you here? Did you come here specially after hearing the news of a fire here?"
Qin Zhibo shook his head, "I originally wanted to give you and your relative the same gift, but I didn't expect that there was a fire here..."
"These kids came to see Dr. A Li. When they saw the police car here, they came to join in the fun. We happened to bump into each other."
"By the way, how is the relative who lives with you now?"
relative?
There was a hint of doubt in Toru Amuro's eyes, but she understood immediately.
Qin Zhibo gave Akai Shuichi the status of a "relative".
Although Toru Amuro doesn't want to become "relatives" with Shuichi Akai, he can only follow Qin Zhibo's words for now.
"Thank you, teacher, for your concern. The 'relative' should be fine. He is currently undergoing examination at a nearby hospital. He is expected to be out in the evening."
The "nearby hospital" mentioned by Toru Amuro is obviously Seishi Hospital.
Akai Shuichi turned out to be there...
Hearing this, Qin Zhibo felt relieved.
"Okay, then you go and cooperate with the police first. We will talk about other things later."
"Okay, teacher."
Although Toru Amuro is a disciple of a famous detective, he is not exempt from suspicion.
When Toru Amuro followed the other two to the other side, Police Officer Zhang bent down and asked the young detective team.
"Among the three of them, have you found anyone who looks more like that suspicious person?"
Gentai and Ayumi answered in the negative confidently, "How do we know this?"
"It's because we want to know this that we came to meet with Kairen!"
When Police Officer Zhang heard this, he said with shame: "So that's it, then you should have said it earlier..."
He originally thought that as long as he called the three people over and let the children take a look, he would be able to know who the suspicious person was.
But as the saying goes, if your mouth is hairless, your work will be weak.
If the suspect cannot be found directly this time, it will not be easy to find any reason to call these three people over in the future.
After all, there is currently no direct evidence that the fire was man-made, and everything is just inference.
Conan naturally knew this too, with his hands in his pockets, and just as he was about to take a step forward to ask about the three people's specific situation, he felt a force pulling him behind him.
Conan looked sideways and saw that it was Hui Yuan Ai hiding behind him.
"How's it going? Do you still feel that way?"
"It was a little bit at first, but not too strong..."
"Now, it has completely disappeared..."
Haiyuan Ai frowned slightly and stared at Toru Amuro in the distance without relaxing for a moment.
When Amuro Toru came over just now, Haibara Ai used Conan as a cover to observe him carefully.
But it was only when Toru Amuro looked over at first that she felt a little palpitated.
Later, when Amuro Toru and Qin Zhibo started talking, this feeling disappeared.
However, she still dared not rule out the suspicion easily and wanted to observe for a while.
Conan looked at the hesitant Haibara Ai and felt very helpless.
It can only be said that this is a psychological shadow caused by being frightened by the organization. Even if Gin is dead, this shadow cannot be filled.
Seeing that Hui Yuan Ai still couldn't completely let down his guard, Conan could only give Qin Zhibo a look from a distance.
I can't get away from here, so I leave the case to you...
When Qin Zhibo received Conan's look, he also used the skill [Psychic Communication] picked up from the Kunyang people to reply to him.
Don't worry, just leave it to your father.
When this sentence suddenly appeared in his mind, Conan's expression froze.
What's wrong with this?
Why should I figure out “fatherhood” on my own?
Do I really think of Qin Zhibo as...father?
…
Qin Zhibo here looked away, not knowing that Conan had fallen into deep self-doubt.
He looked at the other two people except Toru Amuro.
One of the men had OK bandage on his face. His skin was darker than Toru Amuro's, his nose was turned up, and he had a fierce look on his face.
On top of the man's head, his basic information shows that he is Hosoi Ryuhei, 25 years old, and a carpenter.
The other man was short and fat with a big mouth like a toad. His name was Makabe Ginya.
Is it really compelling?
Although he doesn't look like him, he is only 29 years old, the same age as Toru Amuro, and is a stock investor by profession.
The carpenter man and the stock speculator man.
Qin Zhibo wrote down the identities of the two people, then turned to look at Police Officer Zhang and asked.
"Officer Zhang, why were the three of them not in the apartment last night?"
Faced with Qin Zhibo's question, Police Officer Zhang did not answer immediately, but corrected him: "My surname is Gong Zhang..."
"Okay, Officer Zhang."
Police Department Zhang: "..."
Looking at Qin Zhibo's solemn mixed-race face, Police Department Zhang decided not to worry about this. Who allows foreigners to have immunity in this regard?
"The man who put on the OK bandage said he went out drinking with the carpenter's foreman and other people at night... But my men confirmed that he disappeared after 1 a.m."
"He said he drank too much and slept on a park bench all night."
"The fat man said that he went to the cinema to watch an all-night movie. He originally made an appointment to watch it with a netizen, but the netizen failed to make the appointment, so he watched the whole movie by himself."
"He still kept the ticket stubs of the movie tickets, but since it was a midnight automatic ticket theater and there was no one else in the theater at the time, there were no witnesses who could prove it for him..."
"The last one is your disciple. He said he couldn't sleep at night and went for a drive alone..."
"In other words, when the fire broke out at 2:30 in the morning, none of the three of them could prove that they were not at the scene."
Police Department Zhang did not take out the records and read them, he just told the contents orally, and his memory is quite strong.
After listening, Qin Zhibo nodded and groaned.
