158 Past

Hearing Kogoro say this, Conan, who was innocently punched in the head, covered his head very depressedly, and looked helplessly at the old policeman who was still lying in the futon at the moment, and was still sleeping while he and others were talking like this-

In this regard, Conan only felt that the other party who played the second movement of "Moonlight" on the radio station would really give up the opportunity just because this unreliable old policeman was present?

And this kind of thinking is also a strange point for Gao Yuan, it stands to reason that with the current situation of the old policeman sleeping so dead, the old policeman may have slept before the person came here, this possibility is not zero, so the other party can be said to have a chance to start.

However, since there are no other clues at the moment, the matter has reached this point, and there is no better direction to trace it for the time being.

Seeing that it was already very late at this time, Gao Yuan suggested:

"It's late, it's almost time for us to rest. However, just in case, let's take turns keeping vigils. ”

There is no objection to this.

So, at half past eleven o'clock in the evening, the crowd began to keep vigil in turn......

……

It's night, early in the morning.

When Jinguji Reito woke up in the middle of the night, thinking that it was almost possible to change shifts and keep vigil, Jinguji Reito got up from the floor where the quilt was laid and looked around, wanting to change shifts with the people who were still keeping vigil at this time.

However, when he dimmed his vision and looked around carefully, Jinguji Reito found that there was no one keeping vigil in the piano room of the community center where he was at this time.

And after taking a serious look at the people lying around him who were still sleeping, Jingu Temple Reito immediately found out that Takato, who volunteered to be the first to keep vigil, was not here.

So, feeling a little strange, Lingren Jinguji immediately got out of the futon, as light as his hands and feet as possible, not to wake up the few people who were still sleeping, and then began to look for the traces of Gao Yuan-

Come to think of it, it can't be that Gao Yuan will have an accident, right? And it didn't wake us up.

With this thought, Jinguji Lingren walked out of the piano room lightly, first searched around the other rooms of the community activity center, and after finding no trace of Takato, he chose to walk out of the door of the community center and came to the outside of the house-

Then, obviously, Jinguji Reito saw a figure in a trench coat, standing on the beach at this time, and seemed to be looking very solemnly into the distance.

Obviously, this figure is lofty.

Seeing this, Jinguji Lingren thoughtfully felt a little strange, so he walked towards Gao Yuan, and then, by the moonlight of the full moon, Jinguji Lingren saw that Gao Yuan at this moment was holding a mobile phone in one hand to keep time, while paying attention to a wooden board floating on the sea, which seemed to be calculating the water flow-

"The ebb and flow of the tide will have a significant deviation from the speed and direction of the current. When we found Hideo Kawashima, it was just when the sea was at its highest, and now, the tide has long since receded. ”

In this regard, Lingren of Jinguji Temple, who understood Takato's intentions, couldn't help but persuade him.

Hearing this, after hearing who the person was, Gao Yuan turned his head and looked at Lingren Jinguji behind him, sighed a little helplessly, and replied with a faint expression:

"I know that, too. But I just wanted to give a simple estimate of the velocity of the sea...... If the current rate is too low, it will take more than an hour for the corpse to be pushed by the ocean current to the island office......

"So, you suspect that Hideo Kawashima's death has something else hidden?"

Faced with Gao Yuan's statement, Jinguji Reito asked with a little surprise.

"It can only be said that there are too few clues, and everything is still uncertain."

Gao Yuan shook his head and said.

"So, can you now confirm the possibility that Hideo Kawashima jumped into the sea and drowned, and then was pushed by the ocean current to the island office?"

Jinguji Reito couldn't help but ask.

"The speed of the ocean currents is sufficient, so this possibility cannot be ruled out. The rest is that I don't know if the direction of the current was correct at high tide......"

Gao Yuan reluctantly said this result that had almost no meaning.

In this regard, Jinguji Lingren only nodded slightly, and then said:

"It's a shift change, wise detective. Go and rest. ”

Hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but nodded, then put away his phone, and prepared to return to the community center-

"By the way, Director Jinguji, I remember you said before that although you investigated the problem of Tsukikage Island after the incident with the director of the Rice Flower Library, Tsukawa, before that, you mentioned that it was also related to an incident that happened on the Shinkansen that involved a student movement of illegal drugs. In that case, did you really not ask anything from those students? ”

Suddenly, hearing Gao Yuan suddenly ask about this, Jinguji Reito was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he still felt a little helpless and shook his head, and replied:

"I can't say no. It's just that according to the investigation, this clue seems to be related to an incident that happened in their school five years ago, but we can't trace it anymore. ”

"Why?"

Gao Yuan wondered.

"Well...... I don't know if the wise detective has heard that five years ago, there was a female student jumping off a building at Wangdao University? ”

After thinking for a moment, Jinguji Reito asked.

As for this question, originally because of the time point of "five years ago", Gao Yuan wanted to shake his head directly, after all, he had only been in this world for a year, how could he know what happened five years ago.

However, with the appearance of the name of the school "Royal Road University", Gao Yuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment-

Because, I really know this school, and it's in the original work.

Because there are not many universities that have appeared in the original work, and the name of this university is very special, so Gao Yuan is quite impressive.

And if I'm not mistaken, the original incident about this university is......

There is also a Jinguji Reito who mentioned this......

Illegal drugs?

Oh! I thought about it.

A female college student was falsely accused of selling illegal drugs on campus, and then she was found in the locker room for possession of illegal drugs. So, in order to prove her innocence, she jumped from the school building.

"The girl who was framed for selling illegal drugs?"

Thinking of this, the verifiable Gao Yuan asked rhetorically.

In this regard, Jinguji Lingren couldn't help but nodded, and said with a little surprise:

"Wise Detective also thinks that girl was framed?"

"I've heard rumors that it seems that the masterminds are two other students with very strong family backgrounds."

Seeing Lingu Temple Reito answer like this, Takato knew that he was not mistaken, so he couldn't help but nod affirmatively.

"yes...... The daughter of Senator Shibasaki, the daughter of the president of Anzai Global Construction. Before there was clear evidence, even if there were rumors, we could only do some simple investigations, but in the end we found nothing. ”

Jinguji Reito said a little helplessly.

"In other words, the incident of students transporting illegal drugs on the Shinkansen because they are also studying at Wangdao University, so you think this incident is related to the incident of a girl who jumped off a building at the school five years ago? However, since the incident of five years ago is itself an unsolved case, you will not be able to investigate it? ”

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help asking.

And Jinguji Lingren nodded affirmatively.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan thought for a while, and suddenly said:

"So...... You didn't doubt itβ€”the tutor at their school? ”
