Chapter 22: Shinichi Kudo's Challenge

"Huh?"

"Is that so?"

"Hahaha, Brother Kudo is right!"

Twilight Thirteen didn't feel ashamed in the slightest, but generously patted Kudo Shinichi on the shoulder, skillfully defusing the embarrassment.

"Oh, in the end, it's up to Brother Kudo to make a move."

Kudo Shinichi raised his head proudly and glanced at Makoto by the way.

"Huh?"

Sakaki's eyebrows and hair follicles twitched, and he saw the spark of battle intent in the other party's eyes.

Fighting spirit?

How could such a thing come about?

It's the first time I've met Kudo today, so it's naturally impossible to have a gap with him.

Feud and hatred... Not to mention it.

Since there was no injustice in the past and no enmity in the near future, where does the fighting spirit come from?

Thinking of Suzuki Sonoko's evaluation of Kudo Shinichi, Sakaki Makoto suddenly realized something.

A person who loves reasoning, when he encounters a comparable opponent, he will subconsciously compare them and want to distinguish between high and low.

In addition, the other party is just a high school student, young and frivolous, and it is normal for him to have an impetuous personality.

Sakaki smiled silently, not thinking of competing with Kudo Shinichi.

I cross my Yangguan Road, you take your single-plank bridge, and everyone's well water does not interfere with the river water.

It's no good to tear each other down, so why do you have to fight for the high?

Besides, it's no good to solve the case.... Why do you bother with this tongue?

He is crossed by him, and the bright moon shines on the river.

Let him show him.

Kudo Shinichi took the physical evidence and came to the hall with confidence, where everyone in the clubhouse gathered.

There were quite a few people, 24 people.

Among them, there are 18 cowherds, 4 waiters and 2 cleaners.

But among the 24 people, 7 were in the lobby at the time of the crime, 11 were in the public dressing room and could prove to each other, and two more followed Ishikawa Shu out of the door, so there were only three suspects left.

They are: Kawasaki Sakumo, twenty-five years old, Cowherd.

Gen Shigeji, twenty-four years old, cowherd.

Fukuyama Silver, 23 years old, waiter (preparing cowherd).

Gen Shigeji is the second-in-command of the club who follows Ishikawa Shu, and everyone calls him Brother Shigeji on weekdays, but Ishikawa Shu likes to call him Genji.

was treated as a suspect, Gen Shigeji's expression did not change in the slightest, and he still had a cold dead face.

"Mr. Yuan, may I ask where you were and what you were doing at the time of the crime?"

Shinichi Kudo was the first to ask.

"Upstairs, sort out the bills."

"Can anyone prove it?"

"Nope."

Kudo Shinichi nodded, turned to look at Kawasaki Sakumo:

"Mr. Kawasaki, do you have an alibi?"

"I... At the time of the incident, I was smoking at the back door... No one can prove it...."

Kawasaki Sakumo stammered, looking weak-hearted.

"Mr. Fukuyama, what about you?"

Kudo Shinichi looked at the emaciated Fukuyama Gin, but he didn't treat him as a criminal in his heart.

The reason is very simple, in the club, Fukuyama Silver is too young, and Takizawa Akira is the top card in the club, Fukuyama Silver is not qualified to enter his dressing room at all, so he can only stand outside the door and pass the word.

Once Takizawa has finished his makeup, he will follow him to see Mrs. Yoshida, and if he is a prisoner, the makeup on Takizawa's face should be intact.

Of course, this is only Kudo Shinichi's preliminary speculation, and he will not give up asking because the other party is suspicious.

"I, I'm talking to Mrs. Yoshida, and every ten minutes, she asks me to knock on the door."

Fukuyama repeated what he had said before.

"Humph! I don't think you can pretend, Takizawa Akira was killed by you! ”

"You had a big fight with him before."

Kawasaki Sakumo said in a weird way.

"You, you!"

Fukuyama Yin's face changed, and he defended: "I just have a quarrel with him, where will I kill him?" ”

"Besides, don't you have a motive to kill?"

"I see that you often go to Brother Takizawa with a small box, and Brother Takizawa will give you money, you must have some ulterior secrets in private!"

"Deal?"

Twilight Thirteen sensed the elements and asked, "What the hell is going on, Mr. Kawasaki?" ”

Kawasaki Sakumo's face was ugly, and he slurred: "It's just that Takizawa bought some souvenirs from me, it's not a deal....."

"Heroin...," said Minamoto Shigeji.

"Takizawa is a drug addict and often buys drugs, we never know where he bought it from, it turned out to be you."

"Nope! Not me! What proof do you have! ”

Kawasaki Sakumo yelled with a red face: "What qualifications do you have to say about me!" ”

"You used to be the top brand in the store, Takizawa has never been able to compete with you, so he found someone to cut your face, compared to us, you are the one who hates him the most!"

The corners of Gen Shigeji's stiff mouth twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "That incident, it's been a long time since then. ”

"I don't remember for a long time."

Seeing that several people were about to quarrel, Twilight Thirteen hurriedly came out to play a round.

"Okay, okay, let's go over and rest for a while, and when we finish our investigation, we'll tell you a few answers."

"How long will it take, I've got a few reservations tonight."

Kawasaki Sakumo looked impatient: "They are all big customers, if I break the contract, I don't know how much money I will lose!" ”

"Shut up!"

Ishikawa Shu spoke: "Until the murderer of Takizawa is found, the clubhouse is temporarily closed!" ”

"Everyone, stay here honestly!"

Compared with the police, it was obviously Ishikawa Shu who was more prestigious, and although Kawasaki Sakumo and the others were displeased, they still obediently sat aside and waited.

Ishikawa Shu retracted his gaze and said to Kudo Shinichi, "I've heard your name, Kudo Shinichi. ”

"No matter what method you use, I want you to solve the case as soon as possible, if you can't do it, then say it as soon as possible!"

"Shinichi will definitely be able to! I believe in him! ”

Moriran grabbed Kudo Shinichi's sleeve.

"Hum ....."

Ishikawa Shu turned.

"Let's go, Mr. Sakaki."

"Wait a minute!"

Kudo Shinichi suddenly stopped the two.

Under Sakaki's incomprehensible gaze, Kudo Shinichi smiled and said slowly, "Mr. Sakaki, I have a proposal. ”

"Let's have a showdown to see who can find the murderer as quickly as possible."

"Race?" Sakaki Makoto was a little surprised: "But I already know who the murderer is." ”

Shinichi Kudo: "????? ”

Twilight Police Department: "╰(*°▽°*)╯! ”

"Nani?!"

Shinichi Kudo looked incredulous, looking like a hen with her butt burned by fire.

He said anxiously: "You, you, you already know the prisoner?" ”

"Of course."

Sakaki squinted at him.

Isn't it the savior of the police?

Such a simple case can be seen through at a glance.

"You should know who the prisoner is."

Murder and heart.

Kudo Shinichi's face suddenly turned the color of pork liver, and he said embarrassedly: "Well, but I... No evidence has been found...."

"Isn't the evidence there?"

Sakaki stretched out his hand and pointed: "It's on theirs." ”
