Tourism is always closely related to eating.

After eating udon, they went to eat takoyaki.

After eating takoyaki, they went to eat okonomiyaki.

When Yusuke Sakata, who had gone to the bathroom, reunited with them, everyone walked out of the store while thinking about where to go next.

"There's also a nice shop, recommend you-"

"Of course, I'm going to Osaka Castle next." And Ye interrupted.

“… Osaka Castle is okay, too," I fought several times a day, and Hattori Heiji was a little tired, "But it's better to call a police car again, it's not good to always let Xiaolan follow you for a taxi..."

Heiji Hattori said as he pulled out his phone.

He still wants Xiaolan to take a police car and give her a complete trip to Osaka.

Kaedehara, who has always walked at the back, followed out of the store, and then...

Bang.

A body smashed into the hood of a police car.

It's just a few meters away from them.

……

Screams came and went.

"What's going on?"

Uncle Maori, who was well-informed and didn't know whether it was wide or not, was quite calm, walked to the car and checked it, and knew at a glance that the man was dead and couldn't die anymore.

"Who is this man?"

"I don't know!" Heiji Hattori stuffed his phone back into his pocket and ran over as well, "Suddenly it fell off!" ”

As they spoke, everyone subconsciously looked up and found that there was a person on the roof of the building looking down.

Heiji Hattori and Conan immediately rushed forward, and Kaede followed Uncle Mori to take a few glances at the corpse.

The deceased apparently died from the knife that pierced the heart, with a purse in the middle.

Although the man looked like he was already out of help, Uncle Maori still probed, and then reminded Yusuke Sakata, who was standing aside, to call the police immediately.

Obviously I'm a police officer, but I'm still so slow to react...

Uncle Maori was slightly dissatisfied, but his attention was quickly turned to the man looking down from the roof.

Obviously I'm a prisoner, and I'm still so slow to react...

After a while, Heiji Hattori and Conan walked down with the "prisoner".

But things weren't as Uncle Maori thought.

"What? Was he called to the roof? ”

"Well," Hattori Heiji said with a serious face, "he's the owner of the tea shop on the second floor." Someone called him and told him there was a strange man on the roof and told him to go up and have a look. ”

"How did the corpse fall?"

"The body was lassoed and hung from the handrail of the roof, covered with plastic sheeting, and secured with one end of the rope by the door. So that as soon as the door opens, the rope will be released. ”

"Then the body will fall." Hattori Heiji carefully looked at the body on the hood, and continued, "He must have been dead all day, I guess he was called here yesterday and killed, and then he was hanged." ”

"But how did it end up in a police car?"

Yusuke Sakata wondered.

"It may just be a coincidence, but if there is a corpse in the city, it will be reported... It could also be a deliberate warning to someone. ”

"Warning?" Conan asked.

"Well, the knife that pierced through the purse and into the chest..."Heiji Hattori pondered, "It looks a lot like the previous murders..."

As he spoke, as if confirming Hattori's guess, a middle-aged woman in the crowd suddenly let out a frightened scream, but by the time they went to chase her, the woman had already driven away.

Fortunately, both Kaedehara and Conan remembered the license plate number, and the group planned to go to the Osaka Prefectural Police Tojiri Office first, so that people could investigate the identity of the woman, and at the same time ask Hattori Heiji to give a detailed account of the "previous murder" he just mentioned.

After sitting down, Hattori Heiji explained to everyone.

"Serial killings?"

"Well," Hattori nodded, "that should have been the third murder just now." All three had knives through their wallets and into their chests, and all after being strangled to death. ”

"Wallet?" Xiaolan asked.

"Is it because of a property dispute?"

"Not really."

Heiji Hattori rejects Kazuha's idea.

"The first to be killed was Hidetoshi Nagao, the manager of a convenience store. The second person who was killed, Tayo Nishiguchi, was the proprietress of an izakaya, and then, Kazuto Noyasu, who had just fallen, was a taxi driver. ”

"None of them looked like people would be killed for money," Hattori Heiji continued, "and so far these three have nothing to do with each other." ”

"Unrelated?"

Uncle Maori is obviously a good guy.

"Yes, even though my place of birth, school, and place of work are all in Osaka... But the location is completely different..."

Kaedehara doesn't think so.

With Conan, who didn't pretend much, present, he didn't need to pretend to be a child too much, so he opened his mouth directly.

"How could it not be related," Kaede Hara said in a curious tone, "deliberately running through the wallet, so what must have something to do with the wallet?" ”

"Heiji..."

Yusuke Sakata happened to come over with something and shouted, but then stopped.

"That's right, Pingji!"

Toyama Kazuha's approval overpowered Yusuke Sakata.

It's something that can be easily associated, and Kazuha is very happy that his ideas are recognized.

"I've thought about it," after all, it was Kudo who said it, and Hattori Heiji took it seriously, "but the victim's wallet was all destroyed in a mess, and there was nothing strange in it..."

"Why something weird?"

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment.

"Maybe it's a certificate of deposit from the same bank, or a membership card from the same club, or something else..."

"That's how it is done on TV!" Kaedehara continued.

"Indeed," said Uncle Maori, thoughtfully, "you kid should tell me what's in your wallet, and let me, the detective, show you—"

With a snap, Hattori Heiji slapped the table and stood up.

"Driver's license! Yes, that's right, this is it! Hattori Heiji looked happy, "There are driver's licenses in all three wallets, and the driver's licenses have also been pierced with knives!" ”

Hearing what Hattori Heiji said, Conan thought about it.

"What happened to the driver's license?" Uncle Maori was a little upset that he was interrupted, "They're all adults, what's so strange about having a driver's license." ”

"It's not about weirdness, uncle."

Heiji Hattori explains:

"This means that they may have been involved in a traffic accident, so the killer will deliberately penetrate the driver's license out of revenge. Of course, it is also possible that they have a driver's license together, but in short, there must be something in common..."

As he spoke, Hattori turned to Yusuke Sakata, who had come over and was standing aside, "Hey, Sakata, I remember the driving supervision office is near here, right?" Take us there! ”

"Heiji!" And Ye shouted, "Then what should we do?" ”

One car can't fit so many people, so she can't take a taxi with Xiaolan, right?

"You send Xiaolan back to the hotel, the one I told you about during the meal, I've arranged everything," Hattori Heiji said, looking at Kaedehara and Conan, "Let's go?" ”
