File.56 Osaka Castle, City of Gastronomy (End)

(Copy another chapter...... Isn't the essence of the same person copied and copied? )

"Click, click, click......"

Far from diminishing, the raindrops in the sky became more dense, because a thin layer of rain accumulated on the ground, making the sound of shoes stepping on it especially crisp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The footsteps stopped in front of an open warehouse, and it was very dark inside, and if Chiri had been here, he could have heard the sound of rapid breathing and heartbeat caused by nervousness and excitement in the warehouse, which was masked by the sound of rain.

The person standing outside raised his feet and walked into the warehouse, the figure half-hidden behind the pillar was very familiar, and he sighed secretly and said, "If you wait a long time, the Xiangji will not come...... Mr. Sakata. ”

"You're the serial murderer, aren't you?"

Sakata, who was called to reveal his identity, turned out from behind the pillar, "Heiji, don't be kidding, I just think this warehouse is rare, come and take a look......"

"First of all, the body fell into the police car......"

Heiji, who ignored Sakata's defense, directly began his reasoning, "You know that the road was not smooth at that time, and if you propose to be nearby, you will definitely get our consent, so you will take us to that shop first, and then when you see us walking out of the store after eating, you immediately call the owner of the tea shop and lead him to the rooftop to open the door......"

"After the body fell, I ran upstairs and called Okazaki to come to the scene, calculating that she would leave a threatening message immediately after going out, so that she could hide when she returned."

"After smoothly let me find her at the scene, you mentioned her on the road again, and deliberately missed the Xidu apartment on the phone, and after I got out of the car, you who parked the car on the side of the road also ran with us, and called Okazaki while running, the content is probably that I am the policeman who spoke to you just now, the house is very dangerous, go to the public toilet downstairs and wait for me or something......"

"So that when we get to her house, you'll kill her in the public toilet."

After a pause, Heiji relieved himself, "The reason why you were able to drive there soon after we found Okazaki's body was because you rented two cars with the same interior, and after killing her, you just got into another car that was hidden nearby, and pretended to have just arrived from Midosuji, which could only drive north in one direction." ”

Sakata, who was still playing haha at the beginning, gradually became unnatural as Heiji's reasoning became more and more in-depth, and he lowered his head slightly and was silent, but Heiji's voice still didn't stop.

"There were also hints that deliberately led me into the whole series of killings, and that brought me closer to the heart of the incident...... All of this is to come here and kill the Township Councillor. ”

"The village secretary is a member of the city council, and when you go out, it is too conspicuous, and there may be bodyguards to follow, so you take the initiative to act as our guide, and if my driver comes with me, it will not be suspicious even if I walk around......"

“……”

A series of reasoning left Sakata speechless, and after a long while, he stubbornly held back a sentence: "When did you find out?" ”

"Is this ......?"

Hearing Sakata's initiative to agree, Heiji also put down the stone in his heart, and his expression was no longer as serious as before, "At first, it was the side mirror of the car, and the angle of the passenger seat when leaving the Xidu apartment was slightly different from before......"

"When I saw the fax photo, I realized that you were very similar to Coach Inaba, who passed away 20 years ago...... In the end, it was determined that it was you because of this habit of yours......"

Heiji, who raised his left hand and gestured in the air, continued: "I didn't think of it when Chiri did this action at the time, but I only remembered it after seeing your action of adjusting the inner rearview mirror, this action of habitually adjusting the inner rearview mirror after getting into the car is the same as Noyasu in the video and Okazaki who was in a hurry to escape at that time!" Although this action is common, you both have this habit in this incident, which proves that there is a relationship between you......"

"I don't know if it happened twenty years ago, but you'd better turn yourself in, Sakata......"

"It's a good time, you're right......

Sakata, who closed his eyes, exclaimed, then took out the revolver in the holster from his waist, and in Heiji's surprised eyes, he pulled the hammer with his right thumb and pressed the muzzle of the gun against his temple.

"It's time for this to come to an end, it's too late......"

"Live...... Stop it! ”

Under the urgency of the roar, the whole person pounced on Sakata, and before he could react, he grabbed the revolver in his hand with both hands, and Pingji's action made Sakata subconsciously pull the trigger, and the deafening gunshot accompanied by the entanglement of the two rolled in the warehouse, and finally when the two fell to the ground again, the last bullet penetrated a gasoline tank in the corner and embedded in the wall.

The gasoline tank that was pierced by the bullet immediately burst into flames, and the flowing gasoline ignited the wooden floor and many flammable items placed in the warehouse, and the fire quickly swept through the entire warehouse after engulfing the contents of the warehouse, and the violent smoke and flames made the people who heard the sound from all over the place a little overwhelmed for a while.

"Damn, you run away ...... Pingji"

Sakata, who was injured in his right foot by a stray bullet when the two were entangled, quickly turned his head, but when he saw Heiji who was bleeding outward in his abdomen, he understood that they were more than lucky, and muttered with his hand supporting his body: "The coach who died in the car accident 20 years ago is my father...... He drives very carefully and always tells my mother to make sure the rearview mirror in the car, so that's why I have this habit......"

"How can such a person drink and drive? In order to find out the truth, I became a criminal policeman...... When the mystery was revealed when I pursued me into the swamp that had fled into the mountains, he was terrified and told me everything. ”

Speaking of this, Sakata's face was hideous, and he gritted his teeth with anger: "They actually wanted to see if the father, who was known as the devil coach, would show a scared expression, so they teamed up to get him drunk and helped him into a car without brakes......"

"The statute of limitations for murder is 15 years, and even if I know that they are the murderers, there is no way to punish them, so I have no choice...... There is an old Chinese saying that the hatred of killing my father is not shared, and since the law has no way to do justice for me, then I will do it myself... Convict them! ”

Sakata, who finished speaking in one breath, relaxed, "I'm sorry, Heiji, I have bothered you......"

"What stupid are you talking about...... You're the only police officer in Japan who is legally allowed to own a gun, so why aren't you proud? ”

Heiji, who was struggling to stand up with his abdomen in his hands, didn't know where he got the strength, and pulled Sakata's collar and lifted him up: "Stand up for me, Sakata!" The cherry blossom badge on your police ID is going to make you cry! ”

After saying that, the feet of Heiji, who had erected Sakata, rushed out of the warehouse surrounded by raging flames, and the policemen who were watching from the warehouse did not expect the two to break out of the fire, and after seeing a large blood stain on Heiji's abdomen that fell to the ground, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to help and called an ambulance.

Soon after, Kogoro and his party, who hurriedly drove here because Numabuchi confessed that Sakata was the murderer, arrived with an ambulance, and the two who were wounded by gunshot wounds and burned by fire were carried into the ambulance respectively, and Koran Conan and Ye went to the hospital with the car, while Kogoro and Chiri followed in the car.

"I didn't expect it to be like this, but luckily the distance was so close that the bullet didn't have time to accelerate...... At most, it's a bit of a struggle. ”

Looking at the time on the phone screen, the girl who shook her head couldn't help but smile helplessly, stretched out her hand and pinched the little face of Gray Yuan, who was looking at the night scene outside the window.

"Looks like our trip to Osaka ended in just one day......
