Tuesday, September 3rd, evening, Medea Restaurant.

At eight o'clock, Midaiko, Ran, and Aoko went upstairs to watch Kaito perform a magic trick, Yamazaki and Conan brought beer and sat down in the rest area, while Mori went to the front to chat with the neighbors.

Drinking the juice, Conan began to ponder Yamazaki's words again, this incident, Yamazaki and Asai Ka participated in the past, but when did he get involved, thinking back to what he did last night, by the way, yesterday Yamazaki later gave us a code word for us to crack, or scattered, could it be picked out from the tax evasion ledger. Well, that's right, that is, the ledger was written in code, and we translated it, so I was really involved. Wait a minute, in the afternoon, the ledger in the box is obviously understandable at a glance, or printed, oh no, it's not stolen goods. So why did Sawaki Hako go with the police? Could it be that Yamazaki, Asai Ka, and Sawaki Hako are deliberately playing tricks on the police?

Thinking of this, Conan confronted Yamazaki, who was sitting next to him, "Yamazaki, you, Dr. Asai, and Dr. Sawaki, have you set a trap for the police, and what are you trying to do here?"

"Figured it out. Yamazaki laughed, and continued, "You're going too far, I'm just settling a grievance with Miss Hako Sawaki in a peaceful way, with the police, and with Mr. Katsuhiko Nakamoto." ”

"This incident will definitely be in the newspapers," Conan said angrily, "and the police will be embarrassed when Miss Sawaki Hako is acquitted." ”

"That's what the police owe to Ms. Sawagi, isn't it?" Yamazaki laughed, "and if you don't, Mr. Nakamoto might die." So you have to choose one of the two, you say, is the face of the police important, or Mr. Nakamoto's life is important. ”

"You ......" Conan was speechless with anger.

Yamazaki laughed, "Why are you so angry? What does it have to do with you if the police are disgraced? And I'm sure if the Twilight Police Department knew this, he would definitely choose the latter." Then he asked, "Aren't you angry that the police are disgraced, but angry that you have been used, or that you are angry that your ability is not enough, and you don't see it at first?"

"Well...... Conan pondered, and after a moment asked, "In that case, Dr. Sawaki's face changed at that time, because he was afraid?"

"I was also surprised by that playing card, very surprised, it was something I hadn't even thought about. Yamazaki smiled, "If you think about it, in fact, you didn't lose, according to your words, there is only one truth, and now that you have found the truth, as a detective, your business has been done, with Ayumi's card, you have successfully exposed Dr. Sawaki's alibi, and the following is the matter of the police, see if you can find out the traces of Dr. Sawaki's place from Mr. Nakamoto's apartment." Then he asked, "Or are you going to take the original ledger that has turned to dust, and turn that stolen goods out and hand it over to the police?"

"I'm not a magician, and a magician can't make it. Conan said angrily, and continued, "Maybe I'm really angry that I didn't see it, since it's a secret account, it should be handwritten, or a disk, and it's printed like that, it's my negligence." ”

"Actually, we also wanted to make it handwritten, so that it would be more realistic, but we didn't know when the police would come to the door, so we had to type it into the computer and print it out. Yamazaki smiled, "I faxed the key text you deciphered to Dr. Asai who returned to the hospital, and she copied it, along with the torn ledger into pages, and sent it to the employees who were working the night shift one by one, and then quickly printed it out page by page." If she had known that the police would not come to her door the next day, she would have asked Dr. Sawaki to copy it herself, and in one night, she could almost do it alone. ”

"Since there are so many people, why don't you let them help with the copying?" asked Conan, "Isn't it meant to be realistic?"

"Didn't you knowingly ask?" said Yamazaki with a smile, "Although it is very easy for one person to write one, but as long as you check the handwriting, you can know that it was written by many people, so it is difficult to explain." And if it is printed in this way, it can be interpreted as a secret investigation by Dr. Sawaki's client, which was sent by the person who entrusted it. ”

"By the way, since Dr. Sawaki has been acquitted, it means that this robber incident has not been resolved," Conan looked at Mori, who came to carry beer, and asked funny, "So Uncle Mori is busy for nothing again?"

"yes," Yamazaki laughed, "but that's fine, as soon as the news comes out, everyone will know that Uncle Maori also has an incident that can't be solved, or such a simple incident, so maybe there will be bad guys coming to Uncle Maori, wanting to take advantage of Uncle Maori and gamble on their luck." In this way, Uncle Maori has another kind of customer, unlike now, only the kind of customers who are out of the box will want to come to Uncle Maori. ”

"And the bad guys are the ones who are willing to pay," Conan laughed, "and then Uncle Maori will be free." ”

"I just don't know how long I'll have to wait," Yamazaki said with a smile, "There are still more than twenty days left, and I don't know if it's too late." ”

"Who knows?" said Conan, laughing, "We'll just wait to see the show." ”

"Yes, indeed. Yamazaki laughed. ……

Wednesday, September 4.

Today's Nippon Morning Post published the incident, which said that Detective Mori Kogoro beautifully exposed the alibi forged by Hako Sawaki, solved a robbery incident, and jointly solved a tax evasion incident.

In the morning, the Twilight Police Department called Mori to inform him that since the Economic Division was not involved in the investigation, the incident belonged entirely to the Search Division, and that he had secured a reward of 150,000 yen for Mori, which would be sent to him in the afternoon.

However, just as Mori was crossing his fingers and waiting for the bonus, the Twilight Police Department suddenly called him again and was embarrassed to tell him that his bonus had been lost, and he could only give him 5,000 yen for hard work, so that he could come to the Metropolitan Police Department to get it.

Mori was completely stunned, and then rushed to the Metropolitan Police Department, and only after asking, did he know, because although the account book in the box was an account book of Mr. Nakamoto Katsuhiko for tax evasion, it was not the account book that Mr. Nakamoto had lost, that is, there was no stolen goods, and after searching Mr. Nakamoto's apartment, he did not find any evidence that Dr. Sawaki Hako had entered Mr. Nakamoto's apartment, and Mr. Nakamoto did not see who was hiding behind the door to stun him. In this way, Dr. Hako Sawaki was acquitted due to insufficient evidence.

"So where did that ledger come about?" asked Maori.

The Twilight Police Department said, "Miss Hako Sawaki said that because she had a grudge against Mr. Katsuhiko Nakamoto, she was entrusted with an investigation of him, which was given to her after the investigation. ”

Maori asked, "Then why didn't she say it then?"

"She said," said the Twilight Police Department with difficulty, "she said she didn't know much about the law, and that whatever the police said, she was what she said." ”

She's talking nonsense. Maori exclaimed excitedly, "Don't believe her, Dusk Police, she said that on purpose." ”

"I don't know if it was intentional or not, but she has the right to say so. The Twilight Police Department said seriously, then after a pause, he said, "If it was intentional, then we owe it to her." ”

Maori was silent after a while, but after a moment he asked, "And what did she explain for her falsifying an alibi?"

She said that she took her because she wanted to go home to get things and she didn't worry about Ayumi sleeping alone in the clinic, and Ayumi later fell asleep again, maybe the effect of the anesthetic came up again. "The two identical rooms have been there for a long time, and it can't be said that they were specially prepared for falsifying alibi." ”

"That's in the past. Maori asked, "What about the motive?"

The Twilight Police Department said: "Because Mr. Katsuhiko Nakamoto is in the money lending business, there are many people who have the motivation to steal from Katsuhiko Nakamoto because of their loans, and there are several who do not have a clear alibi. ”

Maori said helplessly: "In other words, nominally, this robber incident will be re-investigated." ”

"Yes," the Twilight Police Department said with an embarrassed smile, "So, Brother Maori, thank you for your hard work." As he spoke, he handed an envelope to Maori.

Maori smiled bitterly without tears: "Thank you, thank you." He took the envelope with both hands. ……

Before evening, Yamazaki came to Sawaki Haji's apartment according to the appointment of Asai Kazuka.

"Senpai, this is Mr. Yamazaki, the son of my boss, Mrs. Miyakoto Miyamoto, and he said that he is half a detective. He also helped a lot that night. "Yamazaki, this is my senior sister, Ms. Hako Sawaki, she is a former student of my teacher, she is proficient in internal medicine, pediatrics, and otolaryngology, and she is a good hand in management, and I want her to help me manage the Good Mood General Hospital." ”

After greeting each other, Yamazaki asked, "Doctor Sawaki, how are you feeling now, is it much easier to let out a sigh of resentment?"

"It's a lot easier, and I don't think the police are annoying, after all, they're doing what the law is. Sawaki Hako sighed, and then smiled, "Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, if I had done what I had originally planned, because of that card, I might have been arrested." ”

"A person who does not have a clear alibi is not necessarily a criminal. Yamazaki laughs, "But that card was really unexpected proof." ”

"You're talking about that Kamen Superman playing card, right?" Asaika laughed, "I know that." ”

"You know?" said Sawaki Haha, taken aback.

"Yes," said Asai Ka, "Senpai, as you know, I have nothing to do with you for the past two days, so I played poker alone in the rest room and that room of the clinic, and I found an extra card when I was playing cards at your house the night before." ”

Sawaki Hako asked, "Then why didn't you say it?"

"I didn't know that the card was put down by Ayumi. Asai Xiang said embarrassedly, and continued, "Isn't it okay now? Then he asked, "Then again, senior sister, when are you going to come with me?"

Sawaki Hazi said angrily: "I didn't promise you to be the dean, you better do it yourself." Or go to someone else, and you can always find the one you like. ”

"No, Senpai," Asai said flatteringly, "just promise me." ”

"Dr. Sawaki," Yamazaki asked, "do you have something to worry about?"

"Nothing else," said Sawaki Hako, "but I still have a lot of patients, so I can't just leave them alone." ”

"I think you've misunderstood," Yamazaki said with a smile, "There isn't much administrative work at the Good Mood General Hospital, so you can come back when you have time." ”

"Let them transfer to the hospital," Asai said with a smile, "and then they will take a taxi to you, and the hospital will cover their round-trip expenses." ”

Sawaki Hako asked in surprise, "Is this okay?"

"That's a solution," Yamazaki said with a smile, and then to Sawaki Hako, "Good Mood General Hospital is Dr. Asai's word, and she says whatever she says, you just have to be responsible for her." ”

"Senior sister, that's it, we've decided. Asai smiled.

After thinking for a while, Sawaki Hako smiled and said, "Okay, Lady Asai, please take care of me in the future." ”

"Senior sister, I just want you to take care of me. Asai smiled, "Then let's go celebrate." Then he asked, "Yamazaki, do you want to come along?"

"No," Yamazaki said, getting up, "it's almost time, I'm going home for dinner." Then he laughed, "Goodbye, two doctors." ”……

In the evening, the Nikyoi Evening News published the latest developments in the Sawaki Hako robber incident, which said that the suspect Sawaki Hako had been acquitted due to insufficient evidence. And many other newspapers also said a lot of negative news about Maori, which made Maori look annoyed. Even some newspapers highlighted the motives for the theft, saying that Katsuhiko Nakamoto actually abducted her brother in front of Hazuko Sawaki twenty years ago, and later took the money and killed her brother, and then the two combined to make some slanderous remarks against the police. ……

Later, Mr. Katsuhiko Nakamoto had to sell most of the IOUs at a low price in order to avoid going to prison because the IOUs could not be mortgaged to the police, and only then did he barely scrape together 30 million yen in taxes and a large fine, as well as bank loans. Later, Mr. Katsuhiko Nakamoto, who had little money and no skills, started his life of odd jobs again, and he lived a very hard life. ……
