Chapter 449: Flame Red Horse, the arsonist who surrendered himself
"What? You say you're going to set it on fire?! ”
Maori Detective Agency, Gao Cheng and Xiaolan interrogated Uncle Gentian Lund face-to-face.
"Yes, I'm sorry!" Uncle Womb lowered his head with tears in his eyes, "I'm really sorry!" I just want that keychain back, otherwise...... There's going to be a fire, uncle, I'm going to set it on fire because of that keychain......"
"Hmm......"
Looking at the fat man who was crying, Xiaolan and He Ye looked at each other on the ground a little unbelievable, and finally looked at Gao Cheng together.
"Mr. Xuantian," Gao Cheng picked up the key chain with Guan Yu and the Red Rabbit Horse pendant, and asked after a moment of silence, "You mean that you made the key chains that left at the scene in the previous fires?" Why do you want to do this? ”
"I don't know, I really don't know anything!" Gentian cried bitterly and hugged his head, "I have another self in my body, he must have set fire to it when I was unconscious, this is 5-chome, if the keychain is here, he will definitely mess around, please ......"
Gao Cheng was a little speechless.
"The keychain can't be returned to you yet, but we've notified the police and they'll take you shortly...... Mr. Genda, maybe you should go to the hospital......"
"I've been there, I had sleepwalking when I was a child, and it seems to have had another attack recently," Gentian wiped away a handful of tears, "I've gone to the psychiatrist several times, but it didn't work......
Gao Cheng frowned and looked at Xuantian, who had quieted down.
The arsonist was caught so quickly, and the other party confessed to his crime...... Although the statement of sleepwalking feels a little unreliable no matter how you think about it, there is no other explanation for the time being, so it can only be handed over to the police for investigation.
Soon the police came to the Maori Detective Agency to take away Xuantian, and took away Guan Yu's keychain as evidence.
"Senior Chenghu," Xiaolan and the two silently watched the police car go away, feeling a little uncomfortable, "Is that uncle really an arsonist?" On the bus back today, I saw that we were holding a bunch of things and gave up our seats, and now we are running hard to get the key chain back......"
"Who knows if he wants to find out where the arson target is first?" Gao Cheng retracted his gaze and said, "Okay, now that the arsonist has been caught, Xiao Ai and I should also go back......
In fact, he also had a lot of doubts in his heart.
First of all, why did Xuantian hurry to find Xiaolan and Heye at night, and even found him, a detective, that anxious look didn't look like a fake.
And it happened to come after a fire broke out in the 4-chome side of the cup......
I remember the bus route from Shibuya back to Rice Flower, it seems to be Shibuya to Kakudo to Rice Flower and then to Rizen Town......
Rizen Town?
Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai walked downstairs to the Maori Detective Agency together, and suddenly stopped.
"How?" Xiao Ai raised her head, "Do you still want to meddle?" ”
"I'm sorry, Xiao Ai, you stay here first," Gao Cheng sank down, "I think there is still a secret in this incident, and I can't let that uncle become an arsonist like this." ”
Xiao Ai sighed softly, and a softness flashed helplessly: "Detective is so much to do, then I'll stay here for one night." ”
……
Metropolitan Police Department, after Gao Cheng made a phone call, followed his old acquaintance, Officer Sato, who happened to pass by, into the building.
"You're going to the arsonist search team?" Sato asked curiously as he led the way, "I've heard about the arsonist, didn't you say that the prisoner has already been caught?" ”
"Yes, I called the police, and the other party also turned himself in, but ...... I always feel that there are still some problems. ”
Gao Cheng looked around, and occasionally felt that all the fierce eyes were staring at this side, and there was a police uncle who gritted his teeth when he looked at it.
He retracted his previous words, there are also such terrible uncles in the Metropolitan Police Department, but what's the matter with these people, aren't they just getting closer to Officer Sato?
"That detective kid came over, and I heard that he had a blind date with Officer Sato?"
"Damn, Takagi forget it, and now there are outsiders interfering......"
“???”
Gao Cheng followed Sato's side a little inexplicably, and didn't feel better until he found the arsonist search team.
The uncle and the others followed a flat-headed police officer in the room to discuss the case, and there were many exhibits on the table.
"Gentian still can't say anything," Officer Gong pointed to a few burned red horses, "However, these red horses left at the arson site are indeed the red rabbit horses on the key chain, according to your statement, Gentian not only visited the victim, but also wandered around before the fire, so ......"
Officer Gong was pondering, and suddenly saw Hattori and Conan touching the evidence, and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, these evidence are all from the laboratory department, you be careful!" ”
Hattori picked up the toy horse from the first case: "This horse still retains the base of the red rabbit horse, and there is a 'rabbit' character on it...... How is it that only this horse is scorched? ”
Gao Cheng happened to enter the room and took the initiative to speak: "Could it be that the base of the Red Rabbit Horse after that has been ripped off by the arsonist?" ”
"Joto?"
Conan was shocked when he heard this, but Officer Gong was very calm: "Detective Chenghu has been in contact with Xuantian, so I also brought him here." ”
Hattori pestle his face: "What do you mean by ripping off the base?" ”
"If there is a base, maybe it will be found to be a red rabbit horse, and it is easy to suspect Mr. Gentian, who takes the Guan Yu keychain everywhere as a promotional gift......"
Gao Cheng sat down next to him.
"I've already asked Mr. Genda's antique store in Katomachi, and there's a very strange place, Mr. Genda has been handing out product descriptions and gift keychains in the store near the antique store since the morning, but because of the bad evaluation before, the keychain sent today has actually been replaced with a lucky cat ......"
"What's so strange about that?" Uncle Maori was stunned, "Maybe he took the wrong ......"
"Here's the problem, the pendant is in a box, and it's not strange to get confused, so when I came here just now, I studied the route of Mr. Genda's activities today."
Gao Cheng spread a bus map on the table and pointed out the red line markers.
'Mr. Genda first distributed the keychain in the area near Zhujiao's house, right? ’
"This ......," Uncle Maori nodded, "We did see him handing out key chains and catalogs to Mrs. Zhujiao at the Zhujiao house, and he was kicked out by Mrs. Zhujiao......"
"Then it was about 5 o'clock in the evening, and Mr. Genda went back to the antique shop to have a look, and then when Xiaolan and the others met Mr. Gentian on the bus," Gao Cheng continued, "It was about 5 o'clock, and Mr. Genda should have taken the bus back to his house in Rizencho......
Uncle Maori nodded stunned: "Speaking of which, that bus did pass through Kato, Rice Flower and Toshizen Town...... But why did he go to Zhujiao's house and set fire to it later? ”
"Wait," Hattori looked at the road map drawn by Gao Cheng, thought for a while, and his expression suddenly changed, "The reason why Mr. Genda went to Zhujiao's house again is probably not to set fires, but to find out that he sent the wrong keychain and wanted to recycle it...... That's why after the fire broke out, I hurried to 5-chome to find Kazuha and them......"
Officer Gong frowned, lit a cigarette and said, "It's very similar to the Xuantian I know...... Actually, when the fire first broke out, we were suspicious of Gentian at the time, but I don't think that guy is a person who can set fires. ”
"Was it the first case of arson in Rizencho?"
"Well, he was watching the crowd at the time, looking at the flames and talking to himself strangely, muttering to his father......"
The bow chief let out a long puff of smoke under the gaze of everyone, and fell into memory.
"That guy's father was a firefighter, and when he was in elementary school, he was killed by a fire in order to save people trapped in the fire, so we thought, maybe Genda set the fire because he missed his father, and he might fantasize that his father would rush over if there was a fire......
"Then it's obvious," Uncle Maori said in a deep voice, holding the red horse, "if his sleepwalking is severe, then it is possible that he is saying another story of setting fire himself...... But how could the police still be affected by the development of the situation? ”
"That's because there's really no evidence to be found, and it's ...... He's not the kind of person who would set fire to someone else's house, he's not that kind of person," Captain Gong looked tired, shook his head and got up to leave the room, "Impossible, I'll ask him again." ”
"Mr. Bow Chief......
Hattori looked away from the road map and watched the bow chief leave in confusion: "What's wrong with him?" ”
"I also don't think Gentian-sama is an arsonist," Gao Cheng gently picked up the first charred horse, "I can't let this end the matter." Fupin Chinese
