"Cut, at this time, I didn't run irsponsibly to ask what cat's condition was. Hattori complained to Conan with dissatisfaction.

"Hey, he's got his own ideas. Conan was very unhappy with Matsuda for a long time for treating himself as a child, and said perfunctorily, "Now we need to try from the next door to see if we can jump from the balcony." ”

"Huh, it won't be me trying, right?" Hattori smiled bitterly, and then maliciously guessed: "It can't be Officer Matsuda, you will propose this, so you slipped away first." ”

Said so, but Hattori still tied a hemp rope and tried to jump from the balcony of the next room to the first floor: "It's a little easier than I imagined." Then he saw something in the tree opposite and told Conan.

And when Conan stretched out to look into the distance, Kikuto suddenly appeared on the balcony and yelled at Conan, "What are you doing!?"

Conan was half of his body burst outside, and was so frightened that he immediately fell down, but fortunately he quickly grabbed the balcony guardrail, but he was also crumbling.

And the chrysanthemum lay on the side of the door, cowering and not daring to step forward. Just when Conan couldn't hold on anymore and his hand had already been released, Sakuraba suddenly appeared and grabbed Conan.

By the time Conan was pulled up, Hattori had also sprinted from the first floor to the room. After confirming that Conan was fine, Hattori grabbed Kikuto: "Damn, why don't you save people?

"You can't blame Ju for this, he has had a fear of heights since he was a child. Yurie came over and explained as he pulled Hattori away.

"Hmm, what's going on?" Matsuda walked in, "Why is it so noisy?"

"This little brother almost fell off the second floor. Sakuraba explained.

"On the balcony?" Matsuda just glanced at the balcony and had a clear expression: "Well, since there's nothing to do, then you continue." When he was done, he turned and left. Fear of heights? Now I slowly understand.

"Hey, Officer Matsuda. After Hattori and Conan chased him out, Hattori unceremoniously stopped him, "Don't you care what we're doing?"

"What should I care about about children's tricks?" Matsuda asked rhetorically.

"I'll tell you that we've just done an experiment to prove that it is indeed possible to get from the balcony on the second floor to the balcony on the first floor, and the mystery of the Chamber of Secrets has been solved. After Hattori was choked, he fought back triumphantly.

"This kind of thing, I can jump off the second floor balcony in a minute, and then climb back to the second floor from the first floor balcony, but what about this? What can it prove?" Matsuda spread his hands: "We are not playing a detective game, everything we say must be carefully thought out, and it is all about evidence." ”

"Hey, the evidence?" Hattori had wanted to tell Matsuda what he had found in the tree, but now he had no idea at all. With a sneer, he turned to leave, and began to wait to see what Matsuda's expression would be like after he caught the murderer.

"Wait. Matsuda stopped Hattori, and then tapped his temple with his index finger: "It's evidence, if you want to find the murderer, then you must bring conclusive evidence, otherwise you will startle the snake." ”

"Bloodstained shirts, knives, and rope with tape on the tip. Hattori and Conan climbed up the tree and rummaged through what they saw: "That's the end of it, we've mastered the secret room." ”

"Yes, but it still feels like there's a lot going wrong. Conan was also very happy, but he still expressed his doubts.

"yes, there are a lot of doubts. Hattori also began to be confused: "Speaking of which, does that guy Matsuda know something?"

"Excuse me, exchange information?" Conan suggested.

"Don't go. Thinking of Matsuda's indifferent face, Hattori had a feeling that he was being underestimated: "Kudo, with a mystery that you and I can't solve together, how can he find out the answer." ”

It was at this time that Kazuha under the tree shouted to them: "Hattori, Conan, it's raining, hurry down!"

After receiving this hint, the two men suddenly remembered something and smiled at the same time.

In the room where Shigematsu's body was found, Hattori summoned all the people involved to the scene, and then deduced that the murderer was Yuji Sakuraba, a servant of the Morien family.

In the secret room, a rope with duct tape was used to lock the balcony door from the outside through a small hole in the glass, and then jumped from the balcony on the second floor.

Although Katagiri Kaede tries her best to confirm that Sakuraba was with her at the time, Twilight still decides to take Sakuraba back to the Metropolitan Police Department for the next step of the investigation.

During the whole process, Matsuda did not say a word, and it was not until after Sakuraba was taken away that Matsuda and Hattori passed by and whispered, "I hope your plan is successful." But whatever you do, at least let us see the proof. ”

Returning to the Metropolitan Police Department, Matsuda rarely took the initiative to apply to stay and take care of the suspect this time. Of course, Twilight wouldn't easily believe this kind of thing: "Brother Matsuda, what do you want to do? ”

"Is it hard for people to accept that I take the initiative?" Matsuda asked aggrievedly.

Hey, what do you think. When I was on duty before, I was still yelling that there were children at home to take care of. Twilight ignored Matsuda's grievances with a roll of her eyes: "What about Xiao Ai, why can you leave her alone at home today?"

Am I going to tell you that I'm not worried about this place? After sending Twilight away, Matsuda first made a phone call and told Xiao Ai that he was working overtime tonight.

Then he poured a glass of water for Sakuraba in the inquiry room, and when he looked depressed, he comforted: "Don't worry, we will investigate the truth of the facts, and tonight should be over." ”

Sakuraba raised his head and said to Matsuda, "I didn't kill anyone! I didn't kill Mr. Shigematsu!"

"This kind of thing is not up to you, and it won't be what we say. However, there should be results over there soon. Matsuda pretended to smile lightly, "You may be out tomorrow." ”

After calming Sakuraba's emotions a little, Matsuda left the inquiry room and sat on a chair by the wall to observe Sakuraba's movements through the glass.

"Don't Officer Matsuda think he's not a murderer?" Takagi, who was on the side, also heard the conversation between Matsuda and Sakuraba. Being able to be on duty with Officer Matsuda, whom he admires, is a rare opportunity, and of course he needs to ask for a lot of advice.

"As a criminal policeman, if you easily judge a person's sin, then it is easy to ruin someone's life. Matsuda said flatly: "Moreover, there are many doubts this time, and the reasoning of the young man in Hattori is full of loopholes." ”

"Huh?" Takagi was stunned for a moment, and his seemingly impeccable reasoning was said to be full of loopholes by Matsuda, "Then why do you want to bring Mr. Sakuraba back? If Officer Matsuda refutes Hattori's words at that time"

"This is their plan, to lure the snake out of the hole. Matsuda frowned and said, "In this kind of situation without a little direct evidence, it is inconvenient for our police identities to intervene in it." Otherwise, the jury people will start picking again. If there are fewer people, the credibility is insufficient, and when there are more people, it is easy to have flaws, and the murderer may not take the bait. I can only rely on them, I hope they can be sharp, and no special circumstances will happen, and in the end, they will become startled. ”

Oh, is it because you don't feel at ease that you deliberately stayed to wait for news? Takagi had a realization in his heart, and he admired Matsuda's thoughts even more.

The next day, Hattori and Conan brought Kikuto Morizono, who had turned himself in, to the Metropolitan Police Department, and Yuji Sakuraba was acquitted.

Ignoring Hattori's bravado, in order to avoid a long night of dreams, Matsuda used the fastest speed to collect materials, collect information, and then report for inspection. It wasn't until he watched Kikuto Morizono be taken away by Prosecutor Kujou that Matsuda breathed a sigh of relief, so that the dust could be regarded as settled, and he could rest and rest.

But what Matsuda didn't know was that in the prison where Kikuto Morizono was temporarily detained, awaiting trial, he welcomed a special visitor.

"Hello, are you Mr. Kikuto Morizono, the heir of the Morien family?" a young man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a kind smile on his face introduced himself, "My name is Egawa Asano, and he is a private lawyer, and my client feels that Mr. Kikuto has been treated unfairly, so he wants to help Mr. Kikuto." ”

"Help me?" Kikuto sneered, "I'm killing someone." ”

"No, no, Mr. Kikuto, don't be presumptuous. Egawa Asano smiled: "I have read the file, and the police do not have direct evidence to prove that you killed Mr. Shigemomatsu, the housekeeper of your family." ”

"Actually," Kikuto said impatiently. He now felt an extra annoyance at the man who called himself a lawyer, especially the smile, as if he was laughing at himself.

"There is nothing about it. Egawa Asano interrupted Kikuto's words: "Mr. Kikuto, in today's society with a legal system, all facts must be evidence-based. If you want to kill someone, Mr. Kikuto should say less. ”

"Speaking of which, as the heir of the Morien family, Mr. Kikuto has such a net worth and such a social status, how can he have a reason to have a dispute with the housekeeper of his own family?" Asano Egawa said to himself: "Even if you are willing to give up your freedom and reputation in exchange for the end of this matter, how sad and lost should Mr. Kamio, the owner of the Morien family?"

Freedom, money, status. Although Asano didn't say it explicitly, Kikuto still heard his voiceover, and his heart began to move.

"Speaking of which. Seeing Kikuto's move, Asano smiled without a trace, and poured a handful of oil on the fire: "I believe that Mr. Sakuraba Yuji and Miss Katagiri Kaede don't want Mr. Kikuto to suffer such a grievance?"

"You" After hearing these two names, Kikuto finally responded: "Can you help me get away with it?"

"No, no, no. Asano shook his head in disappointment, "If even you believe this fabricated fact, then how can I defend you? In fact, when it comes to the word that is easily misunderstood, I prefer to use the rhetoric of proving innocence. ”

PS: This time a new character has been added, the supporting role of the book friend YY control, uh, it may account for part of the scene in the future. Let's wear it twice, and if you mess in, you can get in, but I'll try to write it well and win everyone's approval. Because then comes Smino's re-appearance, I'm going to keep trying to show him.
