Chapter 629: The Detective and the Junior Detective Corps
"Is it the Inaba editor? Actually, Mr. Sugimori was killed yesterday at noon," Gao Cheng took the initiative to speak, "I have something I want to ask you, you should know me, right?" β
"Uh," Inaba opened her mouth, "Most of the publishing industry knows the famous detective Taka Sei Hiroto...... Did you find any prisoners? My words ......"
"So," Gao Cheng interrupted, "why did you bypass me and go inside for questioning?" If the police are talking, the female police officer next to me can also ask, right? β
"Huh?" Inaba looked at Mr. Kobayashi and was stunned, "But she's not that ......"
"Yes, she is Teacher Kobayashi of Didan Elementary School, the question is how do you know Teacher Kobayashi, is it because there are many children here?"
Gao Cheng stared at Inaba with a miniature gaze and officially confirmed Inaba's suspicion.
"If I'm not mistaken, you knew these children and Mr. Kobayashi from the beginning, which means that this is the report you asked Mr. Sugimori to carry out in the message, right?"
Inaba looked at Gao Cheng tightly and swallowed: "Yes, is there any problem?" β
"The motive is probably mentioned in the message, 'I don't mind the report that exposed the inside story last time', so I specifically checked it, and it was a precious report that was not published in Koeikan and made Sugimori start to become famous......"
"Wait, wait," Inaba said anxiously, her heart racing, "Detective Joto, do you think I killed Sugimori?" I was in the editorial office all the time yesterday at noon, and I also left a message......"
"How do you know that Mr. Sugimori was killed in the middle of the day?"
"It's because ...... The editor-in-chief told me that the police asked me when I left a message, so I thought it was ......"
"Then let's start over," Gao Cheng pressed the player to play the recording of Inaba's message, "It's okay, it's a game at the Dongdu Gymnasium today...... This sentence was said by the editor-in-chief at the time, right? The problem is that yesterday your editor-in-chief had hay fever, and he went straight home and slept at night......"
"Hay fever?"
"Of course, the editor-in-chief thinks he has a cold, but in either case, it doesn't look like he will say the words in the message......"
"This," Inaba said with a dry smile in a cold sweat when she saw everyone looking at her suspiciously, "The editor-in-chief is a super fanatical baseball fan, and he has to participate in almost all games, and he used to go to watch the game even if he was sick, but he probably didn't go last night because he was too uncomfortable to ...... last night."
"So what is he worried about?"
"Huh?"
"Didn't you say, 'It's okay, it's a game at the Toto Gymnasium today'? If you're not worried about it at the Todo Gymnasium, it's just the weather, right? Because if it rains like today, there is no shelter in the open field, and the game is likely to be stopped......"
Gao Cheng continued to reason: "The problem is that it was sunny all day in Tokyo yesterday, but the last time I played on the 22nd was a rainy day......"
"Thisβthis is just your speculation," Inaba said profusely sweating, "Besides, did I hear any rain in my message, is there any evidence that I killed someone?" β
"Huh?" Conan interjected, "Big brother, the locomotive you parked outside is dirty and muddy, don't you rarely wash the car?" The boots are also worn like this, so why not change them with the gloves? Even the tag on the glove is ......"
The corners of Gao Cheng's eyes twitched, and he suddenly understood Uncle Ao, no wonder Uncle always likes to beat Conan.
"Boom!"
The itchy hand came to Conan's head, and Gao Cheng coughed dryly and continued to look at Inaba: "Because the gloves used during the murder are the gloves that I usually wear, and I only noticed the blood stains on the way here, so I bought another pair, if you have evidence, you can look for the handle of your motorcycle that has not been cleaned, or look for the old gloves that you temporarily lost on the way here......"
"Mr. Inaba," Twilight's face sank, and she walked up to Inaba, whose expression changed, and asked, "Can we check it out?" β
"I ......"
Inaba lowered her head and left the scene with the police in a distracted manner, leaving a few cheering children to surround Kobayashi-sensei.
Gao Cheng walked beside Twilight and looked at Xiao Ai helplessly.
At least Mr. Kobayashi's trouble is relieved......
"Hey, you guys," Kobayashi-sensei quietly looked at Gao Cheng, who was talking to Officer Twilight, "Has Joto always been so powerful?" If you add to the words of your young detective group, it's just like what was described in Edogawa Ranbu......"
"Haha," Conan realized that he was careless and a little swaggering, and hurriedly smiled and remedied, "Actually, we have always been with Brother Joto, because Brother Joto is one of the most well-known detectives in all of Japan......"
"That's it," Ayumi said proudly, "and Brother Joto is also a member of our Junior Detective Corps!" β
"Really?"
Mr. Kobayashi's face lit up, and suddenly it was as if he had touched something he loved.
"It's amazing! Detective ...... Junior Detective Corps...... It's all like running out of a work! Wise Kogoro and the Junior Detective Corps! β
"Uh......" Conan tugged at the corners of his mouth.
I didn't expect this teacher to be a detective fan......
"Detective Castle, Castle Household!" After Mr. Kobayashi finished dealing with Ayumi, he unexpectedly mustered up his strength and asked Gao Cheng, "Are you really also a member of the Junior Detective Group?" β
"Huh?" Gao Chengcai said goodbye to Officer Dusk, and when he heard this, he lowered his eyelids and looked at the grinning Ayumi, "It's all said, it's just a detective group badge......"
"Brother Chenghu acquiesced in the first place!" Yuan Tai Hutou emphasized the tiger head.
"Long-winded ......"
"Actually," Mr. Kobayashi suddenly blushed and said with a little excitement on his face, "I'm a loyal reader of Edogawa Ranbu, and I especially like the boy detective group in it, can I join you too?" β
"Huh?"
Ayumi reacted strongly to several times.
"Adults can't join!"
"Teachers have to think about their own age!"
"I'm not an adult anymore?" Gao Cheng looked at the children who were arguing, "Let's go, I still have a job......"
"Because Brother Joto has always been a member of the Junior Detective Corps, isn't he?"
"Whatever you want."
Gao Cheng regretted a little that he had fallen for these little ghosts in the first place, but Xiao Wai was very happy and smiled lightly: "Isn't this good?" With your sign, even if they are special, others won't find it too strange. β
"That's right......
Gao Cheng glanced at the children who were chattering.
In most people's eyes, these guys are a nuisance, right? As long as you take these guys with you, there will often be incidents......
Although he needs to solve the case, but anyway, it's okay to be a nanny, but it's strange to really become a member of the junior detective team, he tries to dress as mature as possible in front of his clients, after all, the society here has always been very prejudiced against age and the like.
"It's okay to be a consultant or something...... By the way, who is the head of the regiment? β
"Kojima-san."
