Detective Conan: Is Miss Haibara planning to assault a police officer again today?

"Why am I actually identifying with the role of a police officer?"

Higashino Ning ran outside, puzzled.

He finally concluded that it was because he was indeed a person with a strong sense of justice.

Chapter 84 I'm coming to get you

Speeding and parking.

Higashino Ning and Sato Miwako's driving styles gradually became similar.

I didn't see Nagasawa Yuki when I got here; she must have already left work at this time.

Thanks to his doubled stamina, Higashino Ning rushed upstairs to his office without even being out of breath.

Yuichiro Higashida caused a disturbance at the Metropolitan Police Department.

She's almost fifty years old, and she's crying so unceremoniously.

Sato Miwako tried to persuade him, while Takagi Wataru was on guard to prevent the other party from accidentally bumping into the wall or the corner of the table.

The other officers on duty were also busy and flustered, and could only do their best to ensure that Higashida Yuichiro would not be injured due to excessive force.

Higashino Ning didn't think for long before hurrying off.

He stepped forward quickly, grabbed the other person by the collar, lifted him up, and then slammed him against the wall with his forearm.

"Higashino!"

"Higashino-kun, don't do anything reckless!"

"Officer Higashino...!"

Ignoring the advice of those around him, Higashino Ning simply gestured for them to be quiet with his free hand before starting a conversation with Higashino Yuichiro.

"Have you calmed down yet, huh?!"

"Are you still going to cause trouble?"

People who are emotionally out of control need a stronger emotional shock to calm down.

Police violence is now an effective means of suppressing Yuichiro Higashida.

Takagi Wataru and others had subconsciously led him to believe that the police would appease him.

Then Higashino Ning will play the villain.

With all sorts of stimuli hitting him at once, Yuichiro Higashida instantly regained his senses.

But he still looked desperate and disappointed, and seemed unwilling to communicate.

Higashino was not going to let him get away with it, and tightened his grip again. "I'm trying to find a way to overturn your case. I've conducted three rounds of investigation."

"Tell me, what exactly are you breaking down about? And what are you so anxious about?!"

A moment of silence followed.

Yuichiro Higashida spoke up.

"It's my daughter."

“She’s abroad. She recently got married and even sent me an invitation.”

"If I can't get to Chicago by noon tomorrow, I'll miss her wedding."

"There are so many things I have wronged her in this life, and I don't want to be absent this time no matter what. I want to give her my blessings as an unworthy father in person."

"Officer... I beg you, please help me, really... please...!"

Instead of attacking the other person with words, Higashino Ning let go of his hand and let him slump to the ground before speaking.

"To be honest, you and Kitagawa Kaede are now equally suspected of committing the crime."

“Our police will not take your side just because you speak sincerely, nor will we abandon our suspicions about Kitagawa Kaede simply because there is no evidence.”

He pulled up a chair and sat down. "If I want to catch my flight tomorrow, I have to solve the case tonight."

"Now, tell us everything you can think of again, in its entirety. I need every detail; there can be no omissions."

Directive statements are effective.

Yuichiro Higashida began to carefully recall and recount his experience.

As he listened, Higashino Ning raised his hand to stop him, "You said that Kitagawa Kaede asked you to go to his house to help fix a video recorder a while ago?"

"Did you touch those wires?"

Yuichiro Higashida nodded quickly, "Yes, I have."

"Yes, please continue." Higashino Ning continued to ponder.

He only needs one piece of evidence to bring Kitagawa Kaede back.

His original plan was to explain the suspicious points he had collected to Inspector Megure the next day, and then apply to have Kitagawa Kaede listed as a key suspect and brought back to the police station for interrogation. He would then break through Kitagawa's psychological defenses by repeatedly applying pressure, thereby solving the case.

But it's a bit too late now, unless Higashida Eiichiro misses his daughter's wedding.

Although Higashino Ning is not a saint, if possible, he still wants the other party to get away to Chicago smoothly.

It's neither a sense of responsibility nor compassion.

This was a feeling that even Higashino Ning himself couldn't quite explain.

Before long, Higashida Yuichiro had said everything he needed to say.

Higashino Ning turned around in his chair and stood up. "Officer Sato, Takagi, I might have to trouble you two to work overtime with me."

Takagi Wataru punched him. "Can't you talk normally? When did you ever use the word 'trouble' to me?"

Sato Miwako rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "Then I'll drive. It'll be faster."

They acted quickly in groups of three.

Once in the car, Higashino Ning took out his phone and said to Sato Miwako, "Go to Kitagawa Kaede's house and put him under immense pressure. If he doesn't confess, take him back and interrogate him. He's definitely a criminal anyway."

Sato Miwako remained silent, shifted gears, accelerated, and sped down the road.

Higashino Ning was holding the handle with one hand and making a phone call with the other.

The call was naturally made to Kitagawa Kaede.

“Mr. Kitagawa, I am Inspector Higashino Ning, the First Investigative Division Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department.”

"Oh, so it's that idiot cop. Don't bother me, I need to rest."

"I suggest you don't hang up yet. Don't you want to hear what I have to say?"

"say what?"

"Of course I'm saying you, you brain-dead criminal, will definitely get hit by a car and die tomorrow, hehe, it's too late to start recording now~"

Higashino Ning changed his tune in the blink of an eye.

"Ahem, Mr. Kitagawa, our department has discovered that you are a prime suspect in a murder case. Please wait at your home at 9:00 AM tomorrow. I will personally come to take you back to the Metropolitan Police Department for interrogation and investigation."

Kitagawa Kaede, who was on the other end of the phone and had never expected the police to start cursing, was still in a daze, but then she was filled with shock and fear.

He feigned composure, "Officer, if you're just trying to trick me, you're overthinking it. No one killed anyone, that's all."

The more he thought about it, the more confident he felt his methods were flawless, and his tone became relaxed. "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, I will file a lawsuit with the court on time, complaining that you maliciously harassed and insulted citizens, and used improper means to investigate the case."

"Officer Higashino, you'd better wait and see what happens."

Seeing the silence on the other end of the phone, Kitagawa Kaede became even more smug. "What, too scared to talk? So police officers can be this cowardly?"

At this moment, Higashino Ning spoke up.

"No, I was just getting out of the car and didn't have time to talk to you."

"What I said before was just to keep you calm. Open the door, Mr. Kitagawa, I'm here to arrest you."

"This time, the evidence is conclusive."

Kitagawa Kaede's heart skipped a beat.

At the same time, a knocking sound came from the door.

He slowly turned his head to look at the door, his expression one of utter terror.

The phone, still pressed against my ear, once again emitted Higashino Ning's mocking voice.

"What, you're too scared to open the door? So the murderer can only talk big?"

"Officer Sato, turn on the siren. I think the murderer looks like he's about to fall asleep. Let's wake him up."

Kitagawa Kaede's thoughts were now completely in disarray.

When the sound of police sirens could be clearly heard outside the door and on his phone, he was so frightened that his legs went weak.

With such a large-scale operation, the police must have already obtained solid evidence.

Damn it, what went wrong?!

"Got to run!"

However, just as he had the thought of escaping, Higashino Ning and Takagi Wataru violently broke down the door.

The door collapsed with a loud bang.

Higashino Ning pulled out a police-issue New Nambu M60 revolver, strode forward, and pressed the muzzle directly against Kitagawa Kaede's forehead.

"You seem to be trying to escape?"

"Come on, run one and let me see."

A pistol was pointed at his forehead.
