The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

If there is insufficient evidence, the opposing defense lawyer may commit a crime, and then all the work would be for nothing.

You have to understand that they are reasoning with the risk of being resented and retaliated against by the prisoners. If they are not sent to prison and given enough time to reflect on themselves and reform their thinking, they are very likely to be retaliated against as soon as they leave the prison.

Conan might be a little better off, since he has the identity of Kogoro Mouri, while the dark-skinned boy from Osaka has to rely on his own two hands.

"You two are still too young. Watch me."

Seeing the two of them working up a sweat but achieving nothing, Kaoru Kazama stretched, stood up from his chair, and decided to teach these two young people a lesson, showing them that experience is indeed valuable.

Although she herself is only twenty years old, if you add her twenty-five years old from her previous life, she is rounded up to the age of knowing one's destiny.

Putting everything else aside, he's more than qualified to be Conan's father.

Kazama's father rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach his two silly sons a lesson.

"Look closely, in a thief's den, how can the stolen goods be hidden without one or two secret compartments?"

Kazama Kaoru is right. Sakura Seizo's art shop was indeed opened for the purpose of selling stolen goods. A shop with such a large turnover is very likely to be investigated by officials from the Financial Services Agency. If there wasn't a reasonable place to accommodate those risk-free transactions, this old guy would probably be in jail more than ten years ago.

Kazama Kaoru didn't waste any words and went straight to the cabinet where the two of them had been rummaging through for a long time.

Adhering to the principle that "those who are not family should not enter the same door."

Kaoru Kazama bent two fingers together and gently tapped the seam between the cabinet and the wooden floor.

Two people with combined IQs that were almost more than two idiots stared at Kazama Kaoru's actions, as if waiting for a good show to begin.

Sorry, these two guys basically have no connection with TV dramas.

Conan's daily life consists of doing elementary school homework, and after finishing, he stays at home reading mystery novels.

Heiji Hattori's daily life consists of doing high school homework, and after finishing, he stays at home reading mystery novels.

However, he has an additional skill compared to Conan: kendo. Conan's soccer skills, on the other hand, have been limited to targeting criminals ever since he left the junior high soccer club.

Chapter 387 In order to become Yoshitsune

As expected, when Kazama Kaoru tapped the third floorboard, the hollow sound inside made the corners of his mouth curl up.

They really are from the same theft ring; even their methods and locations for hiding things are similar.

Or is there some shady relationship between Bizen Heishiro and Ise Saburo?

Kazama Asahi couldn't help but become very interested in this matter, but right now the most important thing was to see what was hidden in the secret compartment that Sakura Seizo had carefully crafted.

Compared to Bizen Heishiro's hidden compartment, Sakura Masazo's is much more exquisite. Perhaps it's because he was an art shop owner and his long-term interaction with art inevitably improved his aesthetic sense.

I thought I would find some secret, but to my surprise, there was nothing special in this hidden compartment except for a key, a key from who-knows-where.

Is this all?

Kaoru Kazama was a little disappointed, but then she thought again that she might have fallen into a misconception. Who said that the hidden compartment had to be filled with things related to the Genji Hotaru Group? Anything that the owner felt was important could be put in there.

In Bizen Heishiro's eyes, his past as a member of the Genji Firefly theft ring was his most important and secretive matter.

It's unclear where the diary is hidden, whether it's for concealment or to try and discard this past.

However, Sakura Seizo was clearly different from him; he didn't hold a grudge about the matter, obviously because he had more important things to do.

Kaoru Kazama took the key and wandered around the house for a long time, but couldn't find a place that the key could open.

So it seems that the key is not for use in this Sakura Art Shop.

"Let's go back, otherwise Xiaolan and Heye will get worried."

Kazama Kaoru glanced at the two detectives who were still somewhat reluctant to part and urged them on.

These two are quite strange; instead of spending time with their beautiful childhood sweethearts, they're so interested in other people's homes.

------------

"Is Mr. Sakura Saburo Ise?"

Uncle Mori's surprised voice could almost be heard through the window and across the Wedge River.

“That’s right, judging from the signature on Yoshitsune’s book, that should be the case. However, that picture is just a photocopy. So it seems that Mr. Sakura must have kept the original on his person, and then the murderer took it.”

Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and concluded.

"Based on the traces at previous crime scenes, the murderer must have arranged to meet the victims before going to their homes to kill them and retrieve their books."

As Kaoru Kazama finished speaking, she suddenly realized something.

The two cases that occurred in Osaka and Kyoto were only four hours apart.

Their initial assessment was that the killer, for unknown reasons, accelerated the pace of his murder plan.

However, even though the suspect, Saijo Taiga, is now in prison, the deaths of Genji Hotaru members have not stopped.

Therefore, it seems that the two cases were committed by murderers in two different locations.

Thinking of this, Kaoru Kazama immediately called Officer Otaki. Since Taiga Saijo was arrested in Kyoto, the other person might still be in Osaka.

The result was that no suspicious persons were found.

While the situation in Osaka cannot be described as martial law, the control over major transportation routes is much stronger than before.

Currently, the main breakthrough point lies with Saijo Taiga.

Are the people here too much of a gentleman? After asking for so long, they haven't given us a single useful piece of information. They're really useless.

As the highest-ranking officer in the task force, Kaoru Kazama naturally had the right to inquire about the interrogation.

However, she didn't treat it as a major issue at first, and when she caught this guy, she thought the case was basically solved.

To everyone's surprise, this guy remained silent the whole time, putting up a test of endurance with the interrogating officers.

There was no other way but to take the stage myself.

She didn't believe that no matter how strong this guy's mental strength was, it couldn't possibly be comparable to the Sharingan's genjutsu.

Led by a police officer, Kaoru Kazama entered the interrogation room of the Kyoto Prefecture.

The interior layout is not much different from that of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department; the only difference is that the exterior decorations have a more antique feel.

Sometimes Kyoto really does have a certain obsession with these external things. There's no need to make a detention center so fancy.

Kaoru Kazama walked into the interrogation room where Taiga Saijo was being held, making sarcastic remarks.

This guy probably hasn't slept for two days, but he still looks pretty energetic.

Seeing that Kaoru Kazama still had the energy to make expressions, it seems that she has been living quite comfortably in the detention center these past two days.

When he saw that the person who came was Kazama Kaoru, his expression changed slightly.

"How's life in the detention center? It's not bad, is it? If you like it, you can stay here as long as you like."

"Even if you catch me, what's going to happen will still happen. It's pointless. And you will definitely pay the price for your actions."

The man, with his handcuffed hand pointing at Kazama Kaoru, spoke with great certainty.

"Oh, I'd like to see what kind of price your accomplice can offer me. If he's not satisfied, let him come and fight me one-on-one. I'll send him over to keep you company."

"Humph"

Upon hearing this, Saijo Taiga smiled disdainfully, his handcuffs rattling as he shook them.

Kazama Kaoru, on the other hand, seemed indifferent. It seems he's having a really good time in the detention center.

Kazama Kaoru glanced to his left at the junior officer recording the interrogation notes, and a crimson light ignited in his eyes.

Three jet-black magatama appeared out of nowhere in the pupils.

The evil chakra instantly filled the entire interrogation room. The young officer didn't feel anything, but his exposed arm seemed to suddenly feel cold.

Saijo Taiga, however, instinctively looked at Kazama Kaoru, seemingly realizing that the root of the problem lay with her.

It seems that practicing swordsmanship has indeed given this guy an extraordinary intuition, allowing him to sense chakra intuitively. This is probably the first person she has encountered like this.

After some deliberation, Kaoru Kazama decided to abandon using Tsukuyomi and instead include the junior police officer next to her in the scope of Kotoamatsukami.

Applying a certain degree of psychological suggestion can change the other party's stubborn resistance.

As for trying to change someone's mind over a long period of time, it's not only time-consuming and laborious, but also offers no benefit whatsoever, so she wouldn't do such a thing.

"Tell me everything you've been hiding. Why did you target members of the Genji Firefly Group?"

"In order to become Yoshitsune."

Kaoru Kazama felt a little uncomfortable being stared at so intently by Taiga Saijo, but she endured it because of the remarkable effect.

Have the junior officer record Saijo Taiga's testimony, and ask follow-up questions one by one.

If she had known this would happen, she would have come along on the day they arrested him, and that would have saved her so much trouble.

Chapter 388 Goro Kamada

"Goro"

Saijo Taiga's voice came out in a broken and intermittent manner, as if he himself was hesitant.

"Goro? Kogoro Mouri?"

Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Kaoru Kazama instantly realized that the key to solving this case lay here.

"Kamada... Kamada Goro"

"Is this guy also a member of your theft ring?"

Kaoru Kazama pressed on with her questions.

"Yes or no"

"I'm asking you, not the other way around. Is it true or not?"

Looking at the guy's empty eyes, Kazama Kaoru felt a headache for the first time about the consequences of his illusions being too effective. Why had this guy become so stammering, making interrogation difficult?

After Saijo Taiga repeated it several times, Kazama Kaoru finally realized that what this guy probably meant was that Kamata Goro's relationship with the Genji Hotaru Group was not close and that he was in a state of detachment.

"Was Goro Kamata involved in what you did this time?"

Kaoru Kazama simply changed his questioning approach, directly asking whether this man named Goro Kamata was involved in the case.

"I'm in Tokyo... Kyoto, he's in Osaka."
