Tuesday, July 27th, evening, Mami Nishimura's apartment.

Officer Takagi searched and found nothing suspicious, so he called the five members of the detective team and prepared to go back.

"There are four strange places," said Conan, "the first is the color of the pillows, quilts, sheets, and curtains, and the kitchen utensils and utensils and décor are all beige, but only the bed and curtains are gray." ”

"The beige curtains and sheets are inside the cupboard," Officer Takagi said, "I guess it's a different tone." ”

Conan said, "The second is the empty space on the wall next to the bed, which is supposed to be a calendar. ”

"The calendar is in the drawer, and there are still days on it. Officer Takagi said, "It's hard to understand the mood of the fans. ”

Conan said, "The third is that the home has been moved. ”

"What's so strange about this, this is someone else's home, of course you can move it however you want. "And she also changed the color of the room." ”

"The fourth is the cactus," said Graybara, "and the cacti are so messed up that she doesn't tell she's a cactus lover, and the needles on this cactus are broken." ”

"This," Officer Takagi asked, "what does that mean?"

Gray Yuan asked, "What if another person moved?"

"Another person? Are you saying that another person created a fake scene to make Mr. Higashida think it was his home?" Officer Takagi laughed, "It's impossible, it's different from the last incident with Mr. Kozaburo Hijikata, he is his own home, so he can buy two identical furnishings, and if you set up the scene, it is more conspicuous when you lie on the ground alone." ”

"Then why don't you go and see it," Conan asked, "Mr. Higashida's apartment is in this apartment building too, right?"

"No need to go, we've already checked this, and the furnishings there are indeed similar to here, but that doesn't mean anything. Officer Takagi laughed.

"Why is that?" asked Motota.

"You're still young, you may not understand, this is an apartment building, there are only two types here, both are a room with a kitchen, a washroom with a toilet and bathroom, plus a balcony. Officer Takagi said, "In the case of the same room type, because each apartment is such a large place, the bathroom and kitchen utensils are in the same location, and the rest of the space, a bed, a desk, a dining table, and a TV cabinet are combined, these things are basically in the same position, but because of different preferences, styles and colors, it is impossible to enter the wrong room as long as you pay a little attention, unless the person is drunk and delirious." ”

"But wasn't Mr. Higashida drunk at that time?" Mitsuhiko asked.

Officer Takagi said, "yes, that's why we think he's the murderer." He came here by mistake and knocked on the door of Miss Nishimura's apartment, and then found out that it was Miss Nishimura and killed her. ”

Conan asked, "Wait, didn't you say he was sent back?"

"Yes, but the administrator can testify that Mr. Kitagawa sent Mr. Higashida downstairs to the hall and left. Officer Takagi laughed,

"There's a safety staircase here, and you can go up from there," Gray said. Also, as Mr. Higashida said, electrical appliances with fewer wires are neat, and this kind of thing is not something that a drunk person can do. ”

"That's why we're here to investigate," Officer Takagi said helplessly, "and maybe there are other outside criminals." ”

"By the way, by the way, didn't Officer Sato ask you to investigate the first discoverer?" Ayumi said, "That prisoner is him, because Mr. Higashida let me go, and he is a good man." ”

"Isn't that how good people count. Officer Takagi smiled helplessly, "There are many such things as good people who get drunk and become bad people." ”

Conan thought for a moment and asked, "Now, didn't the police suspect Mr. Kitagawa, the first discoverer?"

"Yes, yes," Officer Takagi said. There is a speculation that Mr. Kitagawa was at an izakaya at the time, and he heard Mr. Higashida's words that he wanted to kill Miss Nishimura, and then took the opportunity to send Mr. Higashida back, went up the safety stairs and knocked on the door of Miss Nishimura's apartment, went in and killed Miss Nishimura, and then waited for Mr. Higashida to wait in the corridor for Mr. Higashida, and went back to Mr. Higashida's apartment with him, and then waited for Mr. Higashida to fall asleep, took him to Miss Nishimura's apartment, let him touch the contents inside, and then put him on Miss Nishimura's bed, and used a hook or something like that to pick up the door chain from the outside and hang it。 ”

"Didn't you say the door was locked?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"It is guessed that the door was not locked at that time, and the lock was unlocked after the door was broken the next day, and Mr. Kitagawa locked it while the administrator was not paying attention. Officer Takagi said, "The administrator didn't open the door with a spare key, and Mr. Kitagawa did something to the lock, such as blowing some dust into the lock cylinder and causing the lock cylinder to break, which could not be detected at all." ”

Ayumi said: "Then arrest him, his attitude is so bad, he must be the murderer." ”

"That's because he's in a bad mood. Officer Takagi said.

"Feeling bad?" Conan asked.

"This," Officer Takagi said after a moment's thought, "I told you that you wouldn't tell it later." Then he said, "Actually, Mr. Kitagawa and Miss Nishimura already have a marriage contract, but because of their work, they haven't announced this matter to the public or handed it over, so Mr. Kitagawa has no motive to kill Miss Nishimura at all." ”

"What!" Conan was taken aback, "is this true?"

Officer Takagi said, "It's true, we found a marriage book with the names of both of them on it. ”

"I know, it must be a third party outside of marriage. Yuan Tai said.

"Yes, it must be secretly married, and then I am afraid that my wife will find out. Mitsuhiko said.

"So the killer hurts, he's so bad. Ayumi said.

"Both of them are single until now, so there's no such problem at all. Officer Takagi said with a headache.

"Hah, that's interesting. Gray Plains smiled as he looked at Conan's pensive appearance. ……

On the other side, in a private room in the restaurant.

Officer Sato told the story of Higashida's incident and the incident of his accidental handcuffing, including Officer Takagi taking the five Conan to investigate the case.

Hearing that Higashida had killed someone, Yamazaki continued to listen while carefully feeling the reaction of Higashida, who was sitting next to him, until Officer Sato finished speaking, he didn't feel dangerous, and he couldn't judge for a while.

"Damn, lying about it. Lan said angrily, "Dr. Asa is too, and he actually said that they are rehearsing the play. ”

"So, they didn't look for Mr. Maori?" asked Officer Sato.

"No, and my dad was already drunk. Lan said helplessly.

"What?" exclaimed.

"Don't worry. Midaiko said, and then asked Yamazaki, "Brother, how about we go to Canada for a few days?"

"I'm okay with that. Yamazaki laughed, "Mom should agree." ”

Mei Daizi smiled and asked Lan, "Lan, can you?"

"Yes, yes. Lan said, "But now ......."

"If we want to leave now, if we wait until tomorrow morning, we won't be able to pass through the airport. Yamazaki smiled, and then asked Higashida about the wedding location, the Lake Louise Castle Hotel in Alberta.

"Wait," Officer Yumi winked, "and what do we mean by that......"

"It's us, plus the garden. Mei Daiko smiled, "Let's go to Mr. Higashida's wedding and bring him back in two days." ”

"Yes, yes, I agree. Officer Yumi immediately agreed.

"Not so well. Officer Sato said.

"What's the matter, let's just say that I chased it back to Canada. Officer Yumi laughed, "Take Takagi with you again so that he doesn't leak out." ”

"Then how am I going to write this report? Officer Sato covered his forehead and said helplessly.

"Think about it slowly on the way. Officer Yumi smiled, "Let's take a look at how to get the passport out first." Then he said to Mei Daizi, "I will leave everything else and the cost of the road to you, okay? ”

"Two. Mei Daiko stretched out her hand and smiled.

"Well, two is two. Officer Yumi said, and then asked, "Miwako, where is your passport, it's not your mother who doesn't care, right?"

"No, in my room, in the drawer of my desk. Officer Sato said.

"Good. Officer Yumi smiled and continued, "Takagi lives in an apartment alone, it's no problem, the problem is how to find him, his mobile phone is turned off." ”

"If you investigate, you should go to the scene, Mr. Higashida's apartment is near the scene, you can go there first. Yamazaki said.

"That's fine. Officer Yumi said, then looked at Higashida, "Your passport is in ......."

"Also in the desk drawer, it's the key to the house. Higashida handed over a key, "By the way, please take out my daughter's letter and wedding card by the way." ”

"Of course. "Then there's the question of the assembly, and now the road is full of police." ”

"If they're there, let them wait there," Yamazaki said, then to Ran, "Let Sonoko pick them up, and by the way, give Sonoko's phone number to Officer Yumi." ”

"Okay. Lan said, then reported the number and asked the U.S. police officer to deposit it into the mobile phone.

"Damn," Officer Sato complained, "why do I feel like fugitives." ”

"Isn't that fun? Officer Yumi laughed.

"By the way, pistol, Officer Sato. Yamazaki reminded.

"I almost forgot, you helped me put it in the house. "Officer Sato gave the pistol to Officer Yumi," Takagina still has a pistol. ”

"I see. Officer Yumi smiled, "Then I'll go first." ”

"Then let's go, hurry up. Mei Daiko said.

"I'm going to call a taxi. Yamazaki said. ……

In the evening, Mei Dai Restaurant.

Let Officer Sato and Higashida sit in the taxi and wait, and Midaiko, Yamazaki, and Ran get out of the car and enter the Meidai restaurant.

Mei Daiko asked Miyamoto Miko for instructions, and it was approved, and she promised to help arrange it.

After Yamazaki and Ran sent Mori home, Ran immediately called Sonoko.

Maori listened to Ran's words, asked Yamazaki about it, and learned that they were going to Canada, and insisted on going together.

"Dad, what will he do if you leave Conan?" Lan asked, "And don't you have a commission?"

"It doesn't matter what the commission is, the information on the client's side is not ready yet. "As for Conan, let him stay at Dr. Asasa's house, isn't he going to rehearse a play?" ”

"Staying at Dr. Asasa's house?" Ran, thinking that Conan was lying, agreed, and then called Dr. Asasa to inform him. ……

On the other side, Dongtian's apartment.

At Conan's insistence, Officer Takagi went to the administrator to open the room, and brought the detective team to search here, but there was no suspicious finding, and when he was about to beckon the detective team to leave, he found that someone was opening the door, and he was immediately stunned, and then found that it was the American police officer who opened the door and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah, Takagi, you're just right here. Officer Yumi, who was wearing gloves, said, and called Sonoko to inform him that Takagi was here.

Conan had a bad feeling.

Hanging up the phone, Officer Yumi said, "Takagi, give me your pistol, and the key to your apartment, and tell me where your passport is." As he spoke, he went to look at the drawer of his desk.

"Passport?" Officer Takagi asked, "What do you mean?"

"I accompanied Mr. Higashida to Canada to attend his daughter's wedding. Officer Yumi smiled, and then took out Higashida's passport and other things.

"Huh?" Officer Takagi was taken aback.

"Don't be stunned, move quickly, be in a hurry. Officer Yumi said.

Conan asked, "Officer Yumi, who are you going?"

"Can we go?" asked Motota.

"I want to go to Canada too. Ayumi said.

"Can't you take us there?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"You'd better rehearse the play at home. Officer Yumi laughed, then explained that Officer Takagi was waiting here, and then took Officer Takagi's things and left.

"Hah, I was caught. Gray Yuan looked at Conan with a bitter face and smiled. ……

Soon after, two cars from the Sonoko family arrived, one picking up Officer Takagi and the other returning the five members of the detective team to Dr. Asasa's house.

Conan couldn't help but sigh when he learned from Dr. Asa that Lan had called and that he was really going to stay here for a few days. ……

On the other side, three groups of nine people, Mori, Ran, Midako, Yamazaki, Officer Sato, Higashida Yosonoko, Officer Takagi and Officer Yumi, gathered at the hotel in Rice Flower Square, went to the hotel's famous store to buy some underwear for Officer Sato, Officer Higashida, and Officer Takagi, took the bus from Haneda International Airport to Haneda International Airport, waited for the Kanger expeditionary business jet, and after the plane flew steadily, they started supper while discussing the shopping plan. ……
