I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 785 Shiratori Rensaburo’s awakening
Shiratori Ninzaburo and Chen En briefly recounted the situation at the scene.

Kasakura Nami claims that she is stalked by a crazy suitor every day.

The boyfriend she called over was most likely the one who was murdered by her suitor after he broke into her home.

However, officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's forensic division searched the entire house.

They also found absolutely no trace of any so-called trackers.

Moreover, there were no signs of damage to the door locks and windows.

Here's a brief summary of the current information.

Inspector Megure frowned and then asked.

"Ms. Kasakura Nami, could you please provide your alibi?"

Even if he makes no further contributions in reasoning.

After all, he's a veteran criminal investigator with decades of experience; how could he not see something wrong here?
What kind of obsessive pursuer tracks you down every day?
Does this suitor even have a key to your house?
It looks like you lured your boyfriend into the room and then smashed him to death.
Upon hearing this, Kasakura Nami said somewhat uneasily.

"Of course I have an alibi."

"I was watching the movie Gomera the Monster at the Beihu Cinema with these kids and Officer Shiratori two hours ago, and then we came back here in Officer Shiratori's car."

"I wouldn't be able to leave during that time, would I?"

Cuphouse Cinema?
Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure frowned.

He turned to look at Shiratori Ninzaburo beside him, who simply nodded slightly in agreement.

The members of the Junior Detective Club quickly added their own words.

"Yes, yes, we've been seeing Kasakura-neechan all the way ahead."

“Her white knitted hat is very easy to spot; we won’t mistake her for someone else.”

White knitted hat?
Inspector Megure's brow furrowed even deeper.

He turned to look at Chen En, who nodded slightly.

Seeing this, he immediately understood and spoke directly to Takagi Wataru.

"Bring me a map of Beika Town."

Should we look at a map of Beika Town at this point?

Takagi Wataru was taken aback, but he immediately took out the map of Beito Town from his waist bag.

He skillfully spread the map on the table next to him.

With just a glance, Takagi Wataru realized that something was wrong.

He turned to look at Kasakura Nakai and said directly.

"It takes less than 5 minutes by taxi from Beika Cinema to this apartment."

"That means you have a real possibility of committing the crime."

"As long as you leave the journey for more than 10 minutes..."

He looked up and asked Shiratori Ninzaburo seriously.

"Officer Shiratori, can you prove that Ms. Kasakura Nami did not leave for more than 10 minutes from beginning to end?"

Shiratori Ninzaburo only pondered this for a moment.

Kasakura Nami, who was standing next to him, also looked up at Shiratori Ninzaburo.

To Kasakura Nami's disappointment...

After a moment's thought, Shiratori Ninzaburo spoke directly.

"To be precise, I cannot confirm that."

"Because I had already dozed off during the movie."

“I wasn’t woken up until the movie ended. I can’t be sure that this lady was with me the whole time, but judging from the children’s testimonies, she probably wasn’t gone, right?”

"If you've left, the white knitted hat should be..."

As he said this, his gaze fell on Kasakura Nami's face.

"...You won't always be in the children's sight, right?"

The members of the Junior Detective Club nodded repeatedly.

They felt that this was indeed the case.

Kasakura Nami wore a white knitted hat from beginning to end.

In the dark movie theater, a white knitted hat stands out quite a bit.

With just a little light, the movement of the white knitted hat could be clearly seen.

However, they noticed that the white knitted hat hadn't moved at all from beginning to end. Therefore, Kasakura Nami should have never left the movie theater.

However, when we get to this point...

Chen En's gaze, however, fell on the white knitted hat on Kasakura Nami's head.

Then his gaze shifted slightly and landed on Shiratori Ninzaburo's head.

The facts of the case are now quite clear.

Even Inspector Megure was able to immediately recognize Kasakura Nami as a prime suspect in the murder.

Even if Shiratori Ninzaburo were replaced by a random passerby.

Inspector Megure is highly likely to be able to solve cases independently.

Not to mention that he and Shiratori Ninzaburo were present.

"Inspector Shiratori, before Inspector Megure arrived, you seemed to have asked me a question?"

Chen En said this suddenly.

This statement also drew everyone's attention to Chen En.

Shiratori Renzaburo turned to look at Chen En, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Did I just ask a question?

I think I did ask a question just now, but Inspector Megure interrupted me when he came in...

"You asked me about Ms. Sumiko Kobayashi, the teacher at Teitan Elementary School, earlier."

"I can tell you that Ms. Kobayashi Sumiko looks very much like Officer Sato Miwako. It's like they have the same face with a different hairstyle. Isn't that enough?"

Chen En's answer surprised Shiratori Renzaburo.

Does she look very much like Officer Miwako Sato?

Previously, both Wataru Takagi and Kazunobu Chiba had told him about Ms. Sumiko Kobayashi.

However, due to a series of events, he was unable to find the time to check on Ms. Kobayashi Sumiko's situation.

Chen En, now a parent at Teitan Elementary School, gave this answer.

Shiratori Ninzaburo couldn't help but think of another possibility...

He turned to look at Kasakura Nakai.

All the things that had happened at the Beihu Cinema flashed through his mind.

When buying tickets at Beihu Cinema.

He once mentioned to the members of the Junior Detective League what happened to him in elementary school, and said that the reason he pursued Sato Miwako was because he believed that Sato Miwako was the girl destined for him when he met her in elementary school.

Afterwards, Shiratori Ninzaburo and the members of the Junior Detective League went to a nearby convenience store to buy food.

The timing of this was quite close to the time when the members of the Junior Detective League bought their tickets.

In other words, the reason Kasakura Nami found him and handed him the Coke cup with the purple flower wreath was because she was nearby and overheard the whole story...

This person is most likely not the girl he met back then.

Thinking of this, Shiratori Renzaburo pondered for a moment, then his eyes became serious.

"So that's it, I understand."

Seeing Shiratori Ninzaburo suddenly gave me a burst of energy.

Although Takagi Wataru was somewhat puzzled, he still reached out to cheer on Shiratori Ninzaburo.

After being glared at by both Shiratori Ninzaburo and Inspector Megure, he reluctantly lowered his hand.

"In that case, I'll leave this case to you to clean up."

Chen En said casually.

Anyway, he's already made the assist, and Inspector Megure is already on the scene.

Since that's the case, the extra points for the security mission are already secured, so there's no need to steal the spotlight from Shiratori Ninzaburo. Besides, if nothing unexpected happens, Ms. Kobayashi Sumiko will be arriving soon.

If you can lend a hand, then do so.

His gaze fell on the phone that Ai Haibara had just put back.

Ai Haibara just spoke with Sumiko Kobayashi on the phone.

Sumiko Kobayashi was already on her way from the fireworks festival site.

　I'm writing late today, I'll write slowly.

　　Everyone, don't wait any longer, don't stay up late... otherwise you'll lose your smile just like me.
