On Saturday, December 2, outside the Kakudo station, near a phone booth.

"Miss, your pen. Maori waved a pen to catch up with the woman in the short skirt in front of her, and patted the woman's shoulder with a small step, but the woman grabbed Maori's arm and leaned back, and at the same time stuck her foot behind Maori's outstretched foot, using the weight of her body to make Maori lose her balance, and the whole person pressed on Maori's body and fell to the ground with Maori.

At this time, the Twilight Police Department stood up from a nearby van and shouted, "Arrest him!" Some pedestrians on the road immediately rushed towards Maori, and at the same time, some other vehicles on the side of the road, and some people rushed out of the dark alleys behind the street, and rushed up to pounce on Maori.

"......" Yamazaki and Conan were speechless together, although it was winter and he was unrecognizable when he was dressed more, but did Uncle Maori really look that bad guy?

At this time, Maori, who was crushed by a group of adults, saw the handcuffs and reacted and shouted, "I, I'm Maori!"

"Maori?" The Twilight Police Department heard that it was indeed Maori's voice from the out-of-shape cry, and quickly let his subordinates disperse, helped Maori up, and smiled embarrassedly, "Sorry, I misunderstood." ”

Maori recognized the woman and asked with a bitter face, "Officer Sato, do I look so bad?"

Officer Sato smiled embarrassedly, "Your whistle really makes me very uneasy." ”

"......" Maori has nothing to say.

Yamazaki stepped forward and smiled: "Uncle, the police department, let's find a place to sit down first." ”……

Moments later, a nearby drink shop.

The Twilight Police Department explained to Mori that there had been a recent series of attacks in which the killers targeted scantily clad young women, so Officer Sato dressed up as bait.

Maori asked, "So, can you let me know the details?"

"Well," the Twilight Police Department thought for a moment, "well, don't tell me about it." Then he said, "In the past month, there have been three attacks near the Kakudo station, all at night, and the targets were scantily clad young women. ”

Maori asked, "Why did you start it now?"

Officer Sato explained, "The three victims said that they were shopping in front of Kabito Station during the day, so we speculated that the killer must have been targeting the target near Kabido Station during the day, and I was going to go shopping until the evening." ”

Maori sighed, "I see. ”

"The first person to be attacked was a young lady named Ryoko Mizutani, who was driving at an intersection waiting for a green light at an intersection one night more than two weeks ago, when she was suddenly chased from behind by a car, and when she got out of the car and was about to reason with the owner behind her, she was beaten. ”

Maori said: "So the gangsters have cars. ”

Officer Sato said, "Ryoko-sama didn't pay attention to the license plate at the time, and we haven't found the car until now. ”

Yamazaki said, "So, does Ryoko-sama see the types of cars? I mean cars, vans, SUVs, and so on. ”

"This," Officer Sato said after a moment's thought, "Miss Ryoko said it was a big truck. ”

Yamazaki said, "Officer, I don't think anyone is going to drive a car around that they hit, and since three incidents in a row happened in Kakudo-cho, the gangsters might be able to repair the car at a repair shop in Kakuto-cho." ”

Officer Sato said, "We also know that we have already checked the repair shop in Kakuto Town. ”

Maori said: "Then check again, after the incident, the gangsters may not immediately go to repair the car." ”

Yamazaki said, "Also, the truck may be owned by a company, and maybe they repaired it themselves." ”

"Yes, you have a point. The Twilight Police Department immediately called someone to investigate.

Yamazaki asked, "There is another question, what did the gangsters use when they attacked that Ryoko-sama?"

Officer Sato said, "According to the three victims, it is inferred that it was a metal rod or something, and now it seems that it may be a crowbar or something used to move the goods." ”

Maori asked, "Isn't it intentional?"

The Twilight Police Department said solemnly: "Judging from the events that happened later, this gangster did not intend to target Miss Ryoko, and the target of his attack is indiscriminate. ”

"No wonder it hasn't been exposed. "Indiscriminate attacks on women at night can cause panic here." ”

"The second person to be attacked was a young lady named Hitomi Endo, who was attacked from behind when she was coming out of a public restroom more than a week ago. "The second person to be attacked was a young lady named Michiko Ishiguro, who was attacked by gangsters a few nights ago when she walked out of a phone booth. ”

"Uh," Maori couldn't help but ask, "it can't be that phone booth just now, right?"

"Yes. Officer Sato couldn't help but laugh.

Yamazaki asked, "By the way, Miss Ryoko came by car to go shopping, so what about Miss Nimi and Miss Mitsuko?"

"Also by car. Officer Sato said.

Yamazaki asked, "And where is their car parked?"

Officer Sato said, "They said it was the basement parking room of the Kabido department store because you can park for free as long as you shop for a certain amount. ”

Yamazaki said: "The gangsters all operated at night three times, and if the gangsters were wandering here during the day, observing and tracking the target all the time, then the truck is not easy to explain, and a truck parked in the parking lot costs a lot of money." And if he's driving a truck here to make deliveries......"

"By the way, the gangsters must have parked the truck in the underground parking lot of the Kakudo department store so that they could catch up with the three victims at night," Maori said. ”

The Twilight Police Department got up and said, "Very good, let's go to the cup department store immediately, Sato, you go and inform the others, I'll call to apply for a search warrant." Then he went first.

"Yes, police department. Officer Sato said, then looked at the back of the Twilight Police Department and praised, "The police department is really motivated this time." ”

Maori said, "Maybe it's because of that." ”

Officer Sato asked, "What?"

"I just heard that it was before I became a police officer, and there was a similar incident at that time, the incident of a high school girl being hit by a car, and it is said that this incident was handled by the police department, and I heard that the prisoner is still on the run," Maori said. ”

"I see. Officer Sato said, "Then, Mr. Mori, I'll go first." "Leave with that.

Maori looked outside and complained, "Really, why do women always go shopping endlessly?" ”

Yamazaki smiled: "Uncle, you go, I'll wait for Mei Daizi and them here." ”

"I'll leave it to you. Mori left, and Conan followed.

When they left, Yamazaki took out his mobile phone and called to ask where Midaiko was. ……

On the other side, time was pushed forward a little, in a dark alley.

When Ran, Sonoko, and Midaiko came out of the store and passed by a dark alley, Midaiko faintly heard a complaint, which sounded like Officer Takagi's voice, so she stopped and listened, "Really, Officer Sato, what kind of date is this......"

"Why aren't you leaving?" Lan noticed that Mei Daizi hadn't followed.

Midaiko pointed to the dark alley, "I think I heard Officer Takagi talking about dating Officer Sato." ”

"Really?" Lan and Yuanzi's eyes lit up.

"Shhhh ”

"Yes, yes, be quiet. "Let's go and see." ”

The three of them tiptoed into the dark alley, and found Officer Takagi pacing back and forth around the corner alone, muttering words in his mouth, complaining about Officer Sato, and then found the three of them, and their faces turned red in surprise, "You—Why are you here?"

"Why can't we be here?" asked Midaiko rhetorically.

"We hear you, Officer Takagi. The garden sneered.

"Behind my back, I said bad things about Officer Sato. Lan sneered.

"Don't, don't, I didn't say anything. Officer Takagi was sweating in a hurry.

Yuan Zi smiled: "Then you tell us, what is the date you are talking about." ”

Lan smiled and asked, "Could it be that you and Officer Sato are planning to date here?"

Mei Daizi smiled: "Be honest." ”

"This, this, that's it. Officer Takagi said the matter with a weak heart and embarrassment.

It turned out that Officer Sato had been owing Officer Takagi a meal, but every time Officer Takagi wanted to invite Officer Sato, he was always disturbed by the person headed by the Shiratori Police Department.

This time, Officer Takagi invited Officer Sato to eat at the food court in front of Kakudo Station this Saturday and today, and it turned out to be successful, although Officer Sato said that it was just lunch, but after all, it was better than nothing, and he thought that it was impossible to break up after eating, and it would be considered a date at that time, so he was very happy and happy.

Officer Takagi picked out the clothes he chose, and finally decided that he couldn't be too grandiose, so he chose a set of ordinary casual clothes, but he still carefully combed his hair and sprayed some men's perfume. When I came over in the morning, I found that Officer Sato had also dressed up carefully, made his hair, put on makeup, put on lipstick, wore earrings, not only sprayed perfume, but also wore a short skirt, he almost didn't recognize it, and as soon as he saw himself, he enthusiastically grabbed his arm and pulled him shopping, and he was so happy that he couldn't find the north.

However, Officer Takagi suddenly found that there were a lot of eyes looking at him halfway, and he felt like a policeman, and he woke up with a thrill in his heart, and then found out where this was dating, which was clearly pretending to be a couple fishing, and he was about to cry for a while, what was going on.

Finally staying up until lunch, Officer Takagi finally inquired from Officer Sato, it turned out that after the third woman was attacked, in order to solve the incident as soon as possible, Officer Sato volunteered to act as a bait, and the Twilight Police Department and the Shiratori Police Department formulated an arrest plan.

Officer Takagi immediately guessed that it must be that the Shiratori Police Department deliberately did not notify him and let himself get into trouble, but he happened to hear Officer Sato say that according to the plan, he would leave after lunch and come to this post to squat, so he ran over.

"Oh, I was an ostrich. Yuan Zi smiled.

"Garden. Lan stopped, and then couldn't help but laugh.

"I think it's good. Mei Daiko said.

"Is this alright?" asked the garden.

"Of course. "Aside from all else, Officer Takagi, you did have a date with Officer Sato, and it was very intimate, much better than you originally thought of being together." ”

Lan smiled: "By the way, if you say so, Officer Takagi, you earned it." ”

"Is that so?" asked Officer Takagi, confused.

Yuan Zi smiled: "You are all shopping arm in arm, isn't this good? ”

"Is that so?" said Officer Takagi with an embarrassed smile.

At this time, Mei Daiko's mobile phone rang, and when she took it out, she saw that it was the number of Yamazaki's mobile phone, "It's my brother's, he must be looking for us." He answered the phone.

"Tell him we'll go back right away. The garden said.

"Daddy's in a hurry, let's go. Lan said.

After that, Midaiko, Sonoko, and Ran said goodbye to Officer Takagi, who had recovered his spirits, and left. ……
