Chapter 369: Serial Mystery Case
Hattori's house, Gray Yuan and Hattori's mother watched TV in the living room together, and dinner had been prepared for a long time and no one came back.
"Are you eating out for dinner today?" Hattori's mother looked at the entrance worriedly.
"Maybe it's another case," Gray Yuan took out his mobile phone as usual, "It's okay to make a call......
"Little mourning?" At the scene of the crime, Gao Chengcai handed over the dry battery to the forensic personnel for investigation, and was shocked when he received the call, because Xiao Wai was completely forgotten about the case.
"Haha, there's something going on here in Osaka Castle......" Gao Cheng swallowed and laughed dryly.
"Huh?" He Ye noticed Gao Cheng who was calling, "Is it Xiao Wai?" We ate out and I knew there was a nice restaurant across the street from Osaka Castle Shimbashi that happened to be around here......"
"Stupid!" Hattori didn't have a good breath, "It's all fatal, how can we have the time to eat?" ”
"It's okay," He Ye smiled and waved his hand, "I've already called my dad to call him over, anyway, the police headquarters is nearby, and this incident is also a bit related to my dad's previous case...... Okay, I'll leave it to my dad later, Xiaolan, you're hungry too, right? ”
"What are you kidding?" Hattori yelled with a dark face, "Someone died right in front of us, how can you still be in the mood ......"
Yu Guang noticed that Father Ye had a serious face on his face, and Hattori's voice was lowered: "How can you be in the mood to eat leisurely...... Haha, so I think you just leave us alone and go to dinner with Xiaolan first, okay? ”
"Don't eat and pull down," He Ye looked at Hattori with disdain, and pulled Xiaolan away, "Xiaolan, let's eat by ourselves!" ”
Gao Cheng watched the two of them walk away and touched their stomachs.
It's okay not to say it, but when I say it's really hungry, these guys are embarrassed to go to eat when they make a fuss......
Gotta hurry up and find a way to solve the case.
"Xiao Ai," Gao Cheng asked intently with his mobile phone, "How much do you know about Japanese history?" In particular, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's ......"
Next to him, Hattori wiped a cold sweat and discussed the case with his future father-in-law.
"Every time Taiko Hideyoshi won a war, he would hang a small gourd on the horse seal, which later became the famous golden horse seal - a thousand scoops, if each small gourd was filled with gold, a thousand would be quite considerable, and with the eagerness to add historical value, it was almost priceless."
Hattori speculated, "Judging from the charred corpse that was burned 13 years ago, the charred corpse found a few days ago, and the pottery fragments found on Mr. Kato's body this time...... All three of them may have coveted this treasure, but in the end they were killed by someone who wanted to take it for themselves......"
Hattori looked pointedly at the tour group.
The old man's face was slightly gloomy: "Officer, can we also go to have dinner first and then come over?" Because we haven't eaten since lunch......"
"yes," the others said, "My clothes are soaked in the rain, so I'll have to go back to the hotel to change my clothes first......"
"We'll be back right away because the hotel we're staying at is very close."
"Okay, okay," Officer Otaki said helplessly, "but you have to go back quickly, and there may be something to ask you later." ”
Gao Cheng frowned and hung up the phone.
There are still too few clues......
Although it is known that the murderer should be among these people, there is no way to determine who it is, and there is not enough evidence.
Perhaps the identities of these people should be investigated more closely, and it doesn't seem as simple as forming a tour group by chance after meeting them on the Internet.
Especially the old man's bad house, the sneaky phone call just now is also very problematic.
"Mr. Yuanshan," Gao Cheng found Officer Yuanshan, who was father of Heye, "In the previous two cases, there have been no clues about the murderer?" ”
Yuan Shan squinted slightly and watched the group leave: "We haven't found any more clues about this, but after the scorched corpse was found thirteen years ago, several robbers and robberies occurred one after another, resulting in the killing of seven people, and there is probably something related to the middle." ”
"Robbers?"
"Otaki!" Yuanshan's expression was solemn, and before he could say a word, he handed over to his subordinate Officer Otaki, and commanded in a low voice, "Find a few people to keep an eye on that old man, don't be discovered." ”
"Yes," Officer Otaki hurriedly replied, "I'll go and explain to my subordinates right away!" ”
Gao Cheng looked at Yuan Shan who continued to make phone calls in a deep voice.
It seems that he doesn't need to be reminded, and Father Ye has already begun to suspect the old man's bad house.
If the bad house was a robber who haunted thirteen years ago, the suspicious phone call did have an explanation.
But is the bad house really the murderer?
Looking at that, I am very jealous of the police, and there is no reason to make such a big fuss......
Gao Cheng sighed lightly and touched his stomach and looked up at the roof of the castle tower where the deceased fell on fire.
It is still necessary to wait for the police to find out the identities of those people...... I don't think I have anything to eat today, right?
"It's really you, Detective Joto," Soji Okita and his Kendo Club classmates walked out of the crowd with umbrellas to find Takasei, "I knew you would be at the scene of the murder." ”
"Okita?"
Gao Cheng turned his head and almost collided with a big man, his tall and strong figure didn't look like he was learning kendo at all, and he would stare at Gao Cheng with thick eyebrows and big eyes to look at him closely.
"It's really like," the big man said in surprise, "it's like the Okita brothers, just with a lazy posture and a loose ......."
"Loose and sloppy?"
Gao Cheng stiffened and didn't know how to respond to the big man, so he simply asked Okita, "Why are you here?" Didn't the high school competition end yesterday? ”
"We watched the university games again," Okita explained, "and everyone wanted to have a good time, so we just happened to have dinner nearby...... By the way, Joto, is there anything we can do to help? ”
Gao Cheng smiled bitterly: "No, no need, the police have already taken over." ”
This is the home of the Osaka Prefectural Police, and he, a detective, can only fight, so how can he ask a group of lay students to help?
……
Opposite the new bridge in Osaka Castle, Xiaolan was dining at the restaurant with Kazuha, and suddenly reacted and lost Conan, and left the restaurant in a hurry in worry.
"It's going to be fine," Ye comforted, "He should be with them peacefully, and there are still a lot of police officers here, there can't be any more cases......"
On the new bridge washed by the rain, a figure in an overcoat suddenly turned on a lighter and lit his clothes, and struggled to fall off the bridge with flames under Xiaolan's frightened eyes.
"What?"
Xiaolan and the two hurriedly ran to the bridge, only to see a raging fire on the water.
"Come on!"
"It's Xiaolan's voice!" Your Excellency the Tenshu, Gao Cheng and Hattori looked in the direction of Shimbashi together, and didn't care about continuing to chat with Okita, and quickly followed Officer Toyama and his party to Shimbashi.
"What's going on?"
"That, there!" Xiaolan grabbed each other in fear and pointed under the bridge.
Looking down, I saw a whole burning figure floating on the water, and I couldn't see that there was still salvation.
"That's ......"
Several police officers went down to the river to pick up the body and lay it flat on the bank, where Katagiri could be seen staring at his face.
"The deceased's name is Maho Katagiri, and she was also a member of the tour group just now," Officer Otaki explained, "According to Kazuha's description, she suddenly set fire to her coat and fell off her body...... However, the main cause of her death was a blow to the back of the head, I think she hit the stone pier when she fell......"
"Is it suicide, that means?"
Gao Cheng's eyes jumped.
It's 'self-immolation' again......
