Conan stood not far away, taking in the two people's reactions, his brows couldn't help but twitch slightly.
These two guys... are they acting?
Since he considers himself a detective, how could he be at a loss when seeing the body?
The quality of today's detectives is too low.
Or is it that they have stayed in Advanced Nurturing University for too long and have rarely come into contact with murder cases?
It's true when you think about it, that school implements a completely closed management system.
Over time, I felt a little physiologically uncomfortable facing such a bloody scene, which makes perfect sense.
Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but shook his head secretly, feeling that his vigilance just now was a bit ridiculous.
Could it be that I was too nervous and was making a mistake?
Kitagawa Kai After taking a few glances at the body, he calmed down and began to look at the details attentively.
After a while.
He glanced at Hiyori, who was still a little uncomfortable, and asked the police officer next to him, "If the body has been inspected here, can you cover it first?"
The police officer nodded and stepped forward to cover the body.
"Let's go, Detective Shiina, let's go see other places."
Kitagawa Kai stretched out her hand towards Hiyori in a warm voice. The embarrassment in the girl's eyes disappeared for the most part, she gently took his hand and followed him around the desk.
The two of them did not touch the items in the house at will, but just analyzed the clues at the scene.
Shiina Hiyori was a little cautious at first, but gradually, his love for reasoning surpassed his instinct, and he even took the initiative to lift the white cloth to check the details of the body.
The two of them observed and explored the scene for a while, combined with the testimonies of relevant personnel previously provided by the police officers, and the confession transcripts of several suspects...
The next second, Kitagawa Kai and Shiina Hiyori had a clear understanding of each other and showed a smile that they understood each other.
That's what happened!
"Kai-kun, you can see it too, right? It's that method... right?"
"Yeah, Hiyori, I didn't expect that we both thought of going together."
Conan next to him was stunned.
Wait!
What were these two guys muttering about just now?
What "that technique"?
What is "thinking of going together"?
I haven't gotten in the car yet!
He hurriedly stood up on tiptoes, wanting to take another look at the photo in the police officer's hand, but Kitagawa Kai and Hiyori had already stood up, ready to look for Mu Mu.
Conan hurriedly followed. Damn it, am I going to lose to them?
Kitagawa Kai held the girl's slender palm and came to the corner. On the surface, all he was thinking was actually in front of Inspector Megure, who was in a daze.
"Inspector Megure...?"
Mu Mu, who was in a state of wandering mind, trembled all over, came back to his senses, and immediately forced out an awkward yet polite smile.
I just fished out of habit for a few minutes, and then I was discovered by you.
He is worthy of being a college student detective.
"Ahem, it's Kitagawa, you guys. What's wrong? Could it be that... you have gained something new?"
"Well, there is one thing. Please, Inspector Memaku, please bring the relevant personnel here."
Hearing this, Mu Mu was overjoyed, and his eyes shone with joy. It seemed that he could get off work early again today!
He did not dare to delay and quickly waved to the police to call for someone.
It didn't take long for the three suspects to be brought over one after another. Mouri Kogoro, who came after hearing the news, also walked through the door in a hurry.
"What? You two brats already know who the murderer is?"
"I just need to ask a few people to confirm some details on site."
Kitagawa Kai finished speaking warmly, turned sideways and looked at his little girlfriend beside him. "The next step is up to you, Shiina Detective."
"Well..."
Shiina Hiyori stepped forward and glanced at the three suspects in front of him.
When she actually faced them, she was a little nervous at first, but as her thoughts unfolded, her speech gradually became smoother.
From the anomalies left at the scene to the time that was deliberately confused in the testimony, she explained them one by one, linking the seemingly unrelated details together.
The expressions of the three suspects gradually changed drastically as she analyzed them.
One of them finally couldn't restrain his inner panic and retorted sharply, trying to defend himself with his previously seemingly perfect alibi.
However, Shiina Hiyori was not disturbed and instead asked the police to present the verified evidence.
The man opened his mouth, and all the words he had prepared in his mind disappeared, and it was difficult to say a single word.
The room became quiet, and the girl's eyes fell on that person.
"So, the only person who can accomplish all this is you."
"The murderer is you, Secretary Iguchi Maiko!"
Conan stood beside the crowd, his brows furrowing more and more tightly.
He had rechecked the entire set of reasoning in his mind, but could not find anything that could overturn the conclusion.
All of them actually fit.
Could it be that these two people had already figured it all out just by casually looking at each other at the scene?
How many things have I missed?
Iguchi Maiko looked at the evidence in front of him, moved his lips a few times, and finally lowered his head.
"... I did it."
The other two suspects were so frightened that they backed away and stared at this usually gentle woman with wide eyes in disbelief.
Iguchi Maiko could no longer care about the eyes of others. He raised his hands to cover his face, tears falling from between his fingers.
"I worked hard for him for seven years... He said he would marry me when his career was stable."
Iguchi Maiko's shoulders kept shaking and his words were broken.
"The company was having difficulty with its turnover, so I spent all my savings to help him. He said he would give me an explanation after the exhibition was over."
"Today he called me into the office and asked me to prepare for his wedding. I thought he finally remembered our agreement."
She slowly raised her tear-stained face and smiled miserably and desperately.
"But on the invitation, the bride wrote my sister's name."
Several people in the room were completely stunned and looked at each other.
Kitagawa Kai is even more like thorns on the back and sitting on pins and needles...
"I asked him, what are my seven years?"
"But he asked me to take the overall situation into consideration. He said that I was his most trusted secretary and that the company would rely on me for help in the future. He advised me not to delay my work because of personal feelings!"
"Even the cost of the wedding, he asked me to pay for it first, saying that we are all a family from now on, so there is no need to calculate it so clearly!"
Kitagawa Kai heard the corner of his mouth twitching.
How on earth did this guy say these things so confidently?
If you want to open a harem, just give me some power!
If you were more responsible and just packed up the two sisters, wouldn't there be nothing wrong with you?
"I was so angry that I lost my mind and my mind went blank. I couldn't help but stab it on impulse..."
"When he fell, I realized how much trouble I had caused, but I didn't dare call the police."
Iguchi Maiko squatted down in despair, crying so hard that he was out of breath, and just repeated in a low voice that he regretted it over and over again.
Inspector Megure sighed heavily and motioned to the police officer next to her to help her up and take her away.
"What a hopeless tragedy!"
