Stay away from Conan.

"The swamp..."

"Kiichiro!"

Hearing this name read from Takato's mouth, Hattori Heiji and Conan both obviously knew this person, and repeated his first and last name respectively, showing surprise and doubtful expressions as if they wanted to confirm something and said——

"It's the robber murderer who is currently on the wanted list!"

Conan asked in surprise.

At the same time, Hattori Heiji seemed to remember something after hearing the name, and looked at the photo from 20 years ago again——

"That's right, this very special appearance is definitely Koiichiro Numabuchi!"

Hattori Heiji confirmed that among the people in the photo, there was indeed Kiichiro Numabuchi, and he couldn't help saying in surprise.

As for this, after hearing what Hattori Heiji said, Conan seemed to realize something, recalling the details of the incident he had just heard, he asked inexplicably:

"The accident that happened to Police Officer Sakata's father was related to the students in the driving class he taught? Then all the students at that time were the targets of Officer Sakata's revenge, so of course Kiichiro Numabuchi was also included. But..."

"But why do you say that Kiichiro Numabuchi is now in the hands of Officer Sakata?"

Hattori Heiji followed up and asked.

To this, Gao Yuan replied:
"Because the time when Officer Sakata knew the truth! If Officer Sakata knew the truth a long time ago, then there is no reason to take revenge now. According to the current known situation, the first incident happened half a month ago, and the clues obtained by the Osaka Prefectural Police, Numabuchi Kiichiro also fled to Osaka almost half a month ago, and at that time a lot of police forces were sent to search...

"It is very difficult to investigate the truth of the incident 20 years ago. Unless you can find the parties involved in the incident and ask the truth directly from the parties concerned, otherwise it will be difficult to investigate clearly..."

"I understand!"

Immediately, hearing Gao Yuan's half-spoken explanation, Hattori Heiji and Conan already understood Gao Yuan's meaning, and couldn't help but follow Gao Yuan's analysis to continue thinking:

"Officer Sakata must have met someone involved in the incident that year, and learned the truth about his father's accidental death from him, and then began to plan revenge against everyone who caused the incident. And this possible party..."

"It is very likely that Officer Sakata happened to catch him when he participated in the search for the whereabouts of Kiichiro Numabuchi! Kiichiro Numabuchi is a fugitive who is on the run, and he was also a party to the incident that year, so as a police officer, Officer Sakata took advantage of the opportunity to catch the fugitive and asked him the truth about that year..."

Conan also analyzed.

In this regard, listening to the conversation of several people, Sakata Yusuke also smiled wryly:

"That's right, it's exactly as you guessed. At that time, I also participated in the search for the whereabouts of Kiichiro Numabuchi, and found Numabuchi who fled to the mountain... At that time, when he saw me who looked exactly like my father, he suddenly said everything in fear..."

Saying this, Sakata Yusuke recalled that time, when he searched alone, he really encountered that vicious fugitive.

At that time, I was already ready to fight for my life, but I didn't expect the other party to show a frightened expression and beg for mercy after seeing my face——

"Forgive me, instructor Inaba, it was just a prank. The reason why we got you drunk and blew up the brake oil is all because we wanted to see if you, the devil instructor, would also have a scared expression..."

In this way, after briefly repeating what Numabuchi Kiichiro said to himself at that time, Sakata Yusuke fell to his knees and continued to confess to everyone:
"It wasn't until then that I learned the truth about my father's death. It turned out to be just a prank by those students at that time... This kind of thing... I thought that my father, who was so strict and serious, was killed because of this kind of thing..."

"So what? Because the statute of limitations has passed and you know you can't convict them, why don't you just kill them?"

In this regard, listening to Sakata Yusuke's explanation, Conan couldn't help saying seriously, absolutely disapproving of the other party's behavior.

"Don't be so pitiful..."

At the same time, Hattori Heiji couldn't help stepping forward, grabbed Sakata Yusuke's collar forcefully, pulled it up, and said angrily:

"The police are a group that can legally own guns in Japan, and you are one of them! Why don't you take pride in this, and continue to commit crimes as a policeman! Stand up for me, Sakata! The cherry blossom badge on your criminal police certificate is crying!"

It seems that because he has known Sakata Yusuke for a long time, he did not expect that the other party would embark on such a road of no return. Hattori Heiji seemed to hate iron and steel, and scolded him so angrily.

Seeing this, looking at Hattori Heiji who was so emotional, he also knew that Sakata Yusuke and Hattori Heiji had a good relationship. Goro Otaki looked at Hattori Heiji venting his emotions like this. After a while, he came forward to persuade Hattori Heiji to leave——

"Heiji, it's alright, alright... Now the fugitive Numabuchi Kiichiro is involved..."

Otaki Goro said this, as if he was a little tired, Hattori Heiji finally let go of the hand that held Sakata Yusuke's collar.

So Otaki Goro took advantage of this and asked:
"Then Kiichiro Numabuchi, where are you now!"

"I found him in the forest of Minoh National Park in the Meiji Forest, and after learning the truth from him, I locked him in handcuffs on the ceiling of an abandoned cabin near Minoh Falls... Originally, I wanted to let him pretend to commit suicide after the serial killings were completed, and put all the responsibility on him, so I spared his life..."

Slowly, Sakata Yusuke finally revealed the whereabouts of Numabuchi Koichiro.

In this regard, after hearing this, Otaki Goro immediately took out his mobile phone and began to report and ask for support.

After that, the police officers from the police station who rushed to the scene brought Yusuke Sakata and Sumie Okazaki back to the police station, and then he planned to drive to Meiji no Mori Minoh Quasi-National Park, where he joined the police force from the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters to complete the arrest of Kiichiro Numabuchi.

But unexpectedly, Hattori Heiji and Conan also got into Otaki Goro's car, and together with Otaki Goro and Takato, they were going to the scene where Numabuchi Kiichiro was arrested—

"Heiji, when you arrive at the location, don't act rashly...and Mr. Akechi too. By the way, this child..."

After getting in the car, facing Hattori Heiji and Conan who followed, Otaki Goro was a little helpless, knowing that he would not be able to persuade Hattori Heiji for a while, so in order not to waste time, he acquiesced that they followed, but for this, Otaki Goro still seriously advised Hattori Heiji and others.

In this regard, Hattori Heiji smiled and said:
"I know, I know! You don't need to worry about it, Officer Otaki! As for this child..."

"It's Conan who lives in the Maori detective's house. He is a kid who likes to reason and has a good relationship with Hattori-san."

And Gao Yuan helped Conan explain his identity.

Hearing this, Goro Otaki nodded and installed the police lights on his car without asking any further questions. After turning on the lights, he slammed on the gas pedal and accelerated to the place where Yusuke Sakata confessed that he was shutting out Kiichiro Numabuchi.

Then, after galloping like this, they arrived near Mino Falls in Meiji Forest Mino National Park. After meeting with the people from the Osaka Prefectural Police Department, the police force that arrived first found an abandoned cabin and looked for it on the ceiling.

but--

"Report, Kiichiro Numabuchi was not found!"

Soon, after investigating the ceiling of the cabin, the advance troops reported such an unexpected situation...
