The sixth man of Conan's police academy

Chapter 300 The murderer exposed in the phone message
"Takagi, what are you doing?"

Ritsu Sasashima had no choice but to stand up and put his hands in his pockets and walked outside the house, where he saw Takagi Wataru flirting with a middle-aged man wearing glasses.

"Police Department! This man keeps wandering at the door, he is very suspicious!" Takagi Wataru looked seriously at the man in glasses who was still struggling, and scolded: "Don't move around, be honest!"

"I'm not suspicious!"

"Mr. Hatano!"

The beautiful woman with the tear mole at the corner of her eye was obviously the victim's wife Maru Inoko. She walked towards Takagi Wataru in a hurry and then turned back. She looked at Onizawa Takashi and explained: "Officer, this is my husband's attending doctor. He sees her every week I’m here to help my diabetic husband do a routine check-up, and it’s the same today, so he’s not a suspicious person!”

When he said this, Ritsu Sasashima didn't have too much doubt, but when he noticed that the two people were still secretly exchanging glances in front of him, he raised his eyebrows slightly... and felt that there was something in it.

As if he hadn't seen it, he waved his hand and planned to go in and listen to the message on the phone, but unexpectedly there was another burst of noise.Not far away, several police officers pulled a man towards this side. It seemed that they had arrested another suspect.

I don’t know if it’s Suwa Yuuji or Akutsu Makoto.

"Hey! What are you police doing? Let go, I am the master sculptor Akutsu Makoto!" Akutsu Makoto, who had pigtails and stubble on his face, shouted dissatisfied.

"Huh? Akutsu? Is he that famous sculptor?" Takagi Wataru said in surprise with his eyes shining.

Sasashima Ritsu glanced at Takagi speechlessly, how come this guy knows all the famous people? Is he secretly the same person as Vodka?

"Yes, I am Akutsu Makoto! I made an appointment with the owner of this place early in the morning. While waiting, I felt bored and went to the convenience store to buy cigarettes! I didn't expect to be caught by your police when I came back. I’m so confused!” Akutsu Makoto complained as he innocently pinched the cigarette case in his hand.

Ritsu Sasashima originally thought that the last suspect would be held up by the police in the same way, but he didn't expect that he would appear on his own. It was really strange.

"Why is it so noisy here? Hasn't Mr. Maru gone home yet?" A thin man with a long mustache and narrowed eyes appeared in everyone's sight. He looked polite and looked like the type who understands etiquette. .

"Hey! What a pity!"

Conan's shouting voice attracted everyone's attention. Sasashima Ritsu looked down at him. I really didn't know what Kudo was going to do. Did he want to use a child's tone to remind him?
"Why are you sick again, you little brat!" Kogoro Mouri yelled loudly, and just as he was about to punch him down to silence him, Conan quickly ran up behind Takashi Onizawa and said coquettishly: "Brother policeman, all the suspects I saw are... Just like them, they are all wearing black leather shoes!”

"That's good information." Ritsu Sasashima looked at Takagi and said, "Takagi, you are responsible for asking why the three of them came here and their alibi for the time of the crime."

"Yes, the police department!"

Conan was a little surprised why Mr. Onizawa didn't ask in person. He took small steps to follow, but he didn't expect a pair of hands to pass under his armpits and hug him directly.

"Conan, you can't cause trouble. This is a crime scene, not a place for you to play hide and seek."

Conan was still enjoying himself, but suddenly he noticed Xiaolan's sad look out of the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but was stunned and asked in a low voice: "Sister Xiaolan, are you unhappy?"

Mao Lilan realized that she was showing her emotions in front of a child. She immediately shook her head and said, "No, I just thought that if Shinichi was here, he and Mr. Onizawa would cooperate well."

"Sister Xiaolan, do you miss brother Shinichi?"

"I don't want that idiot reasoning maniac!" After blurting out these words, Mao Lilan smiled bitterly and hugged Conan tightly in his arms, and whispered: "I'm just a little worried, I don't know where he is now."

Xiaolan...

Conan lowered his head and looked a little overwhelmed. He wanted to tell Xiaolan his identity, but every time he confessed, he was swallowed back.

Because he knew very well in his heart that Xiaolan would intervene after knowing the truth to help him investigate the mysterious man in black, so he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't put Xiaolan in danger.

Living in her home already carries certain risks, and she cannot be allowed to take another step forward.

Inside the room, Ritsu Sasashima had already pressed the button on the landline and started listening to three phone messages.

The first phone message was from Hatano Ikuya at 16:38.

——"I'm Hatano, isn't Mr. Maru here? It's really troublesome. Let's stick to the original agreement. I will arrive around 17:[-]. See you later!"

The second phone message was Makoto Akutsu at 16:40.

——"Hello, Mr. Maru, I am Akutsu Makoto. I have something to do today and may be late. Please don't sell my master's masterpiece. I will definitely pay you back! If you sell it, I will be rude to you." !”

Um?Are you actually saying harsh words at the end?This doesn't seem like something a murderer would do.

Ritsu Sasashima looked at the traces around him. If Akutsu was the murderer, he could have left directly after committing the murder and deleted the phone messages.

But the masterpieces mentioned on the phone are probably sculptures.

Quietly dismissing Akutsu in his mind, he reached out and pressed the button to continue playing the third phone message from Suwa Yuuji. The time was actually only 1 minute apart from the previous one, and it was recorded at 16:41.

——"I'm Suwa. I originally made an appointment to meet you at 18 o'clock today, but I want to visit in advance so that I can go home early to prepare for the kendo upgrade appraisal next month. I'll see you later."

Hearing the content of this message, Sasashima Ritsu couldn't help but look at someone outside the house who was being questioned by Takagi Wataru. It turned out that this was what happened. Then he should have heard Akutsu's phone message at the scene, so he took advantage of this to want to Put the blame on.

He stood up and looked at the several intact carvings on the cabinet. It was obvious that none of them had been chopped down because he didn't know which carvings belonged to Mr. Akutsu.

"Police department, I have finished all the interviews. None of the three of them have alibi." Takagi Wataru walked into the house and found Onizawa Takashi admiring the sculptures. What a surprise. The police department is usually very serious and focused. I actually have some leisure time today.

Wait...does this mean the police already know who the murderer is?That's why I have this spare time!
"Well, I understand, please let those three people in."

Ritsu Sasashima put down the carving in his hand and noticed Takagi's slightly lewd expression. He took a step back and asked, "What's your expression?"

"Hey, police department, please don't hide it from me. Do you know who the murderer is?"

Takagi seems to have some insight, he nodded directly and admitted: "Well, it is basically confirmed. But before that, I have a question, let Mr. Mori come in together."

"It's great. As expected of the police department, it's very efficient. This way I have time to go home and see Okino...uh, no, hahahahaha!"

Okino...don’t be too familiar with this surname Sasashima Ritsu.

He raised his left leg and kicked Takagi on the butt. He frowned and said, "You want me to tell Sato if you still think about this kind of thing at the crime scene?"

"Hey? No, I'll go right away! Police department, please don't tell Officer Sato about this!"

"Really, is Okino Yoko so charming? There are people in black and white who like her."

Ritsu Sasashima, who had long investigated everyone around Kudo Shinichi, naturally knew that Kogoro Mouri was a fan of Yoko Okino. Detectives belong to the gray profession, so... the black profession has vodka, the gray profession has Mouri Kogoro, and the white profession has Takagi. wade.

"Oh, it's just like collecting stamps."
