Chapter 0708: Takagi to investigate

Tuesday, July 27, evening.

Officer Takagi and the five members of the detective team took a bus to the outside of an izakaya and found two policemen on the road, so they immediately hid in a dark alley next to it.

"Why are we hiding?" asked Motota.

"Aren't you also a police officer?" Mitsuhiko asked.

Officer Takagi smiled bitterly: "No, I'm doing this secretly. ”

Conan asked, "Officer Takagi, are we here?"

"Mr. Nishikawa comes here for drinks after work, and now he should be here. Officer Takagi said.

"Off work?" Ayumi said, "Oh no, I'm going to call home quickly." ”

"Me too. Mitsuhiko said.

"I want it too. Yuan Tai said.

"What about you?" asked Conan with a smile.

"Well, let's fight one. Conan said, and then, amid Ashbara's laughter, he went to the phone booth next to him and called Dr. Asasa and told him that they were accompanying Officer Takagi to investigate the incident and would not be going back at night, so that he could help him round it up.

"Yes, let's just continue to rehearse the drama program here in the evening. Dr. Asasa said, "I'm relieved that you're with Officer Takagi, but don't be too forceful." ”

"I see. Conan hung up the phone after speaking, then went back and told the news to the three of them, and then asked Officer Takagi, "Is Mr. Nishikawa the first discoverer?"

"Yes, the day after the incident, because Mr. Higashida and Ms. Muranishi didn't go to work, he asked the caretaker to help open the door, and then the body was found there. Officer Takagi said.

"Wait, the two of them are from the same company?" asked Conan.

"Yes. Officer Takagi said, "Mr. Kitagawa is also a subordinate of Miss Muranishi, but unlike Mr. Higashida, Mr. Kitagawa and Miss Muranishi have not had any quarrels. ”

"So, does he live in that apartment too?" asked Conan.

Officer Takagi said, "No, he lives in a nearby one-family building. ”

"Oh? Conan said, touching his chin.

At this time, Officer Takagi noticed that the police had entered the izakaya, then he came out and turned on another road, and immediately ran into the izakaya with the detective team.

The proprietress smiled and asked, "Welcome, what do you want?"

"I'm sorry, I'm a police officer. Officer Takagi showed his police ID.

"Officer Takagi?" the proprietress laughed, "and those two policemen asked me if you and a female police officer had ever been here." ”

"Huh?" Officer Takagi said with a dry laugh, "uh, it's the phone that's dead, I'll call them later." ”

"Oh, I see. The proprietress laughed, and then said, "By the way, why did you come here? ”

"No," Officer Takagi asked, "Is Mr. Kitagawa here?"

"Mr. Kitagawa is inside. The proprietress said, and then reported the table number.

"Thank you. Officer Takagi went to find Kitagawa, but as soon as he reported his identity, Kitagawa stood up, "I don't have anything to say to you police, don't bother me again." With that, he left, and asked the boss to put the money in the account when he passed by the front desk.

"Mr. Kitagawa, Mr. Kitagawa. Officer Takagi hurriedly chased after him.

"Excuse me, did you take notes too?" Conan asked the izakaya proprietress as well.

"yes, I went, and I told the police. The proprietress said, "Mr. Higashida was very drunk here that night, laughing and crying. ”

"Huh, so strange?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"He seemed to be happy because he was going somewhere, but his boss wouldn't approve him to take a leave of absence, and he said he was going to kill her, so he really went to kill her. The proprietress said, "Really, alas. ”

"How did Mr. Higashida get back if he was drunk?" asked Conan.

"It was Mr. Kitagawa who sent him back. The proprietress said.

"Was he there then?" asked Conan.

"Yes, Mr. Kitagawa, Mr. Higashida, and Miss Nishimura came together that night. "But Miss Nishimura took a pot of cacti that she had bought for me and left." ”

"Do you know Miss Nishimura?" asked Conan.

"Of course I know, she's also my patron. "And we both like cacti, but I like baseball, and she loves football." He continued, "She likes the Tokyo Soul Team, and Mr. Higashida likes the Osaka Super Team, and I heard that the two of them often quarrel for the second time. ”

At this time, Officer Takagi came back dejected, apparently not stopping Kitagawa.

Conan smiled, "Thank you, boss." ”

"It's okay, it's okay. The proprietress laughed.

"Alright, Officer Takagi, let's go. Conan said to Officer Takagi and walked outside.

"Where are you going?" Officer Takagi followed.

"To the site, of course. Conan said.

"Wait, I'm hungry, can I go eat first?" asked Motota.

"Okay, then let's go eat first. Conan said.

"Food?" Officer Takagi said worriedly, "Wait a minute, Officer Sato, she ......" and then thought about it, took out his mobile phone, turned it on and called Officer Yumi, "I, I'm Takagi, Officer Yumi......"

"Huh, Takagi?" asked Officer Yumi, surprised.

"Whisper, whisper. Officer Takagi said with a bitter face.

"What's wrong, where are you, Miwako?" asked Officer Yumi, "You know what? I'm going crazy looking for you, is Miwako abducted?"

"No," Officer Takagi said with a wry smile, "could you bring some food for Officer Sato." As he spoke, he gave the address and directions.

"Men's restroom?" Officer Yumi asked, "what are you doing here?"

"You'll know when you arrive, remember to keep it a secret. Officer Takagi said, "Anyway, Officer Sato is safe, by the way, don't turn on the lights when you get there." And he said, "Okay, that's it." With that, he hung up the phone and turned off the phone. ……

At night, the men's restroom in the museum.

Listening to the voice coming from Officer Sato, Higashida couldn't help but say, "I'm really sorry, but you are here to accompany me, Officer Sato." ”

"It doesn't matter, if you really catch the wrong person, we should be the ones who should apologize. Officer Sato smiled, then looked at the moonlight outside the window and muttered, "Moreover, this is not actually done for you, I think, your daughter and I have the same bad memories and the loneliness of losing her father when she was a child......"

Due to the quiet of the bathroom, Higashida heard Officer Sato's words clearly, so he changed the subject, "Is that officer okay?"

"Takagi, you say?" asked Officer Sato.

Higashida asked, "That policeman doesn't seem to be confident, can he be trusted?"

"Well," Officer Sato said with a smile, "Takagi is indeed kind-hearted and prone to doing wrong things, and he is the kind of person who can't be reassured, otherwise he wouldn't have let you run away accidentally." ”“

"Heh, heh. Higashida laughed dryly twice and did not answer.

"But Takagi: He's going to work hard in an emergency. Officer Sato laughed.

"Do you work hard?" Higashida said worriedly.

"Don't worry," Officer Sato laughed, "with that kid by your side......"

"Kid?" asked Higashida, confused.

"It's the boy with the glasses. Officer Sato said, "He's a Maori detective." ”

"Detective Maori?" Higashida asked in surprise, "Could it be the 'sleeping Kogoro', the famous detective Mr. Kogoro Maori?"

"yes, I haven't seen what the sleeping Kogoro is like, but I think he'll be able to help you. Officer Sato laughed, and then said to himself, "I'm really looking forward to it." ”

At this moment, the door of the bathroom was pushed open, and the light of a flashlight entered the bathroom, and at the same time, a strange voice with a deliberately thick throat rang out, "What are you expecting?"

"Who?" Officer Sato had a bad premonition, and then was hit in the face by the light of the flashlight, and hurriedly blocked it with his hand.

"Poof! Ha......" Seeing Officer Sato trapped next to the toilet, Officer Yumi, who was in civilian clothes, couldn't help but laugh.

"Yumi!" Officer Sato shouted angrily, "Quickly remove the flashlight." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Officer Yumi laughed, and quickly removed the flashlight.

"Damn, how did you end up here. Officer Sato shouted, and continued, "It must be ...... Takagi."

"You blame Takagi for that, he remembers you. Officer Yumi smiled and showed the food box behind him, "But can you eat here?"

"What can you do?" asked Officer Sato.

"Of course it's to find someone to help, you wait. Officer Yumei took out his mobile phone and called Mei Dai Restaurant. ……

On the other side, Mei Dai Restaurant.

The first half is already finished, and Yamazaki, Midaiko, and Ran are resting, chatting about the sound of police cars everywhere outside.

At this time, the phone in front of Mei Daizi rang, Mei Daizi looked at the number, it was from the US police officer, picked it up and asked, "Find me at this time, is there anything wrong, Sister Yumi?"

"Of course, come and do me a favor. Officer Yumi laughed, and then reported the address, route, and precautions.

"Huh, where do you want me to go?" asked Midaiko, confused.

"Anyway, you'll know when you come here, hurry up. Officer Yumi laughed.

"Okay, I'll go over right away. Mei Daiko said, then hung up the phone, and then told the story.

"Men's bathroom?" Lan asked, confused.

"That place. Yamazaki thought for a moment and smiled, "Let's talk about it later." ”

After that, Midaiko said something to Miyako Miyamoto, and then the three of them changed into their work clothes and took a taxi away. ……

On the other side, the men's restroom in the museum.

Hanging up the phone, Officer Yumi smiled and said, "Okay, Miwako, you can bear with me a little longer." ”

Officer Sato asked, "By the way, is there something big going on outside? Why is it all the sound of police cars?"

Officer Yumi smiled: "It's such a big incident, I'm looking for you." ”

"Looking for me?" asked Officer Sato, confused.

Officer Yumi smiled: "The Twilight Police Department and the Shiratori Police Department thought you were abducted and reported the situation to the above, and now the police in Tokyo are almost everywhere looking for you and Takagi, who wants you to hide here and abduct yourself." ”

"Ah, all, all Tokyo?" Officer Sato felt his scalp tingle, and he was in big trouble this time. ……

On the other side, the apartment building where Mami Nishimura lives.

Officer Takagi shows the administrator his ID card and asks the administrator to take him to Mami Nishimura's apartment.

"That's fine. The administrator said, then glanced at the five members of the detective group and asked, "What about these children?"

Ayumi said, "We're here for life internships. ”

"We're going to see the work of Mr. Police. ”

Mitsuhiko said, "Then I went to the school to make a presentation. ”

"I see. The Administrator laughed, "Then come with me." ”

Soon after, the caretaker took them outside Mami Nishimura's apartment, opened the door for them, and left.

Seeing that the five members of the detective group immediately entered, Officer Takagi hurriedly chased in and shouted, "Hey, you can't touch things." ”

"Look. The five members of the detective team showed their gloves, and Conan said, "We bought them at the convenience store when we were waiting for the bus." ”

"Well," Officer Takagi said, "be careful not to move things around." ”

"Yes!" replied the five members of the detective group. ……

On the other side, outside the men's restroom in the museum.

"Yumi-san, I'm here, where are you?" asked Midaiko loudly.

"Here, come here. Officer Yumi walked out and shone a flashlight on Mei Daiko and smiled.

Kazuran Yamazaki greeted each other with Officer Yumi.

"Yumi-san, what are you doing here?" asked Midaiko.

"You'll know when you look at it. Officer Yumi laughed, and then took them to meet Officer Sato and Higashida.

"It's ......," the three couldn't help but laugh.

"Mei Daizi, help me get it done, I'll pay for the loss. Officer Sato said with a blush.

"Then why don't you do it yourself?" asked Midaiko.

"Miwako may now be fired for any mistake," Officer Yumi laughed with some schadenfreude, "Vandalism or other people's property certainly counts." ”

"Okay, I see. Mei Daiko smiled.

"Wait. Yamazaki smiled and asked, "Officer Sato, I have bad news for you, I wonder if you want to hear it?"

"What do you mean?" asked Officer Sato.

"Actually, this area will soon be converted into one of the stations of the rice subway, and these buildings have been abandoned, and a square may be built or something. Yamazaki laughed, "If you notice, there's no water in the toilet anymore." ”

"Huh?" Officer Sato and Higashida were stunned.

"Poof!" Officer Yumi, Midaiko, and Ran couldn't help but laugh.

"Damn!" Officer Sato kicked on the water pipe in annoyance, breaking one end of the pipe and sinking deep into the wall, making Higashida next to him sweat.

After that, the group left the museum, and the American police officer went to borrow a wrench, and Yamazaki cut the handcuffs.

Holding the severed handcuffs, Officer Sato sighed, "Alas, how to write this report." ”

"You'd better think about how to write a report of the incident. Officer Yumi laughed.

"That's right. Officer Sato said distressedly.

"Incident?" Lan asked.

Pointing to a restaurant in front of him, Officer Sato said, "Let's go there and eat." ”

Officer Yumi smiled: "Understood, by the way, I borrowed it from the bathroom." ”

"Yumi!" Officer Sato protested, blushing a little, and walked towards the restaurant. ……
