In the evening, Gao Cheng walked into the lobby in a suit from a Western restaurant in Mihua and found that Neihai was already sitting at the window.

"I've been waiting for ...... for a long time" Gao Cheng walked straight to the opposite side of Uchihai and sat down, and was surprised to see Utsumi drink a glass of wine in his hand in one go, and even his face turned red.

"I've only been here for a while," Utsumi looked up at Gao Cheng and held his forehead slightly drunk, "I've read today's news, you're still so powerful, you can get the gem back from that monster thief Kidd......"

"The owner of the gem doesn't thank me at all...... Gao Cheng shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know what happened to come out of me...... Is there any trouble again? ”

"No...... Utsumi couldn't hold back his drinking, and his words were filled with deep exhaustion, "Detective Joto, am I really not fit to be a policeman?" ”

"Why do you say that?" Gao Cheng was stunned.

"Every time I investigate a case, I am the one who gets scolded the most, and I am the latest to complete the task, and no one wants to partner with me......"

"Well, I've worked with you a few times, except for the fact that I love to drill the horns of the bull and am a little stupid, everything else is fine."

"Huh?" Utsumi grabbed his hair and looked at Gao Cheng, almost collapsing.

"For example, be careful and careful, the person in charge, even if you are poor in other aspects, you are a good policeman with these," Gao Cheng Zhengse said, "Don't care what outsiders say, the important thing is yourself, and it is their loss that no one wants to partner with you." ”

"Really?" Utsumi felt a little better, "I'm sorry, but I still want you to listen to me complain......"

"It's okay, I don't have anything to do today," Gao Cheng paused, looked at Utsumi with a tired look between his eyebrows, and asked again, "But there really isn't any trouble?" ”

"No, no," Utsumi shook his head, "can you tell me a little bit about solving the case?" ”

Gao Cheng opened his mouth and didn't continue to ask: "Actually, it's not difficult to solve the case at all, as long as you collect enough clues and deduce the only truth in the end......"

“……”

The inland sea looked at Gao Cheng as if it was petrified.

"Let's talk about me......"

It's nearly 9 o'clock after eating with Uchimi, and it seems that it's really just a friend to talk to, and Uchimi didn't mention any cases in the end, but talked about a lot of work and daily life troubles.

After sending Utsumi home, it was already more than 10 o'clock when he returned to the office, and Xiao Ai rested early, leaving Gao Cheng alone in the office.

He doesn't have many friends in the Conan world, and Utsumi is a special friend, giving him the impression that he is a little stupid and very conscientious, and he doesn't seem to come to him if he has nothing to do.

The Metropolitan Police Department should have already left work at 10 o'clock, but Gao Cheng still picked up the phone and called Officer Twilight.

"Yes, I would like to ask the police officer on duty to check the Beizuka North Police Station...... The case recently investigated by the Inland Sea Police officer, I would like to know if there is anything special about it......"

……

In the area under the jurisdiction of the Beizuka North Police Station, at noon, Gao Cheng rode a motorcycle and parked at the embankment on the riverbank, took off his helmet and looked at a factory not far from the other side of the river, and took out a map to compare.

Out-of-body ...... That's what he got from the Metropolitan Police Department.

I heard that it was a little boy who had a fever and accidentally went out of his body, and then he drew what he saw, and just drew the alibi of the suspect, which was a red car parked on the bank of the river.

If what the child said is true, it can immediately prove the suspect's innocence, but the out-of-body statement is obviously too ridiculous, and the river bank cannot be seen at the boy's house since he was a child, because there is a factory in the middle, not to mention that one of the two gates in front and back of the factory is closed all year round, even if it is open, the river bank in the lower position is still not visible from the child's house.

Therefore, the police in Kaizuka Kita all think that the child is lying, and only Utsumi is still insisting on the investigation, and he is still as stubborn as he used to be......

"That idiot, is this a no-brainer?"

Gao Cheng looked at the closed factory gate, put on his helmet again, and rode around the factory area.

With its huge chimneys and noisy machinery, it's strange that the neighborhood is actually a residential area, and the children's home is right next to the factory, and the view from the windows is almost completely blocked by the factory.

Accompanied by Uemura's father and son, Gao Cheng walked to the bedroom window, and when he opened the curtains, he couldn't see the river or the embankment, only the closed factory gate.

"Did you really see the river?"

"Well," Uemura, who was a little old, pulled his son Xiaozhong, "this kid is lying here with a fever, and then he went out of his body and flew into the air......"

"Fly?"

"When I was sleeping," the child nodded, "my body suddenly floated up, to the ceiling, and I saw myself lying on my stomach with a fever...... Then he floated out of the window, flew higher than the factory, and saw a red car on the embankment......"

Gao Cheng looked at the bedroom for a week, and felt that the back of his neck was hairy, and his head was a little big.

"Out of body?"

"Of course I didn't believe it at the time," Uemura continued, "but then I heard that there were police on the other side of the river looking for clues, and it was to investigate whether there was a red sedan parked there at the time of the murder, and I realized that what my son said was true, because the painting was the ...... he drew at the time."

Gao Cheng picked up the children's picture album and flipped through it, frowning and not speaking.

To put it decently, it's impossible to go out of your body, but seeing the red sedan may be real......

Why does that policewoman always encounter some strange cases?

And......

Gao Cheng looked at the child who was a little dodgy.

"That," Uemura pulled away from the child, "do you want tea?" ”

"No thanks."

Gao Cheng left Uemura's house and looked around the factory.

It was a glass factory, and according to the factory director, the front gate may sometimes not be closed in a hurry, but facing the side of the embankment, the gate only opens when special large machinery is brought in......

What the factory manager said may not be true, but even if both doors were opened, the low-lying embankment could not be seen from the child's bedroom window.

"Bad weather, it's so hot before summer even starts...... Gao Cheng wiped his sweat and looked at the reporters who were being driven away at the factory gate.

He and Utsumi are right, it is not difficult to solve the case, collect clues and then reason, but sometimes the difficult thing is to collect clues, especially to collect accurate clues, and to rely on their own reasoning ability to eliminate misleading clues.

The actual situation is complex and changeable, and there is no guarantee that what is asked is the truth, and a little verification is enough...... If the child did see the red car, something special must have happened on the day of the incident.

Gao Cheng stood still outside the factory, exhaled, and searched among the factory waste.
