Chapter 847: she has a problem
Chapter 847 She has a problem
"..." Belmod was silent for a moment, pretending not to notice the vibration of the phone.
After a while and enough time staggered, she took out her phone and glanced at it as if she was bored and wanted to take a look at the time.
I saw an extra email in it.
Judging from the email address, it really came from Uzo.
This arrogant young man actually talked about dark topics in front of a group of police officers:
[I remember you said before, want to experience the perspective of the mastermind behind the scenes? ]
Belmode: "..."
She stared at the wordless sentence for two seconds, then raised her heart silently, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
…
beside.
Conan is trying to find clues while secretly observing Jiang Xia's progress in solving the case.
Seeing Jiang Xia yawning and moving towards the sofa, Conan was slightly startled, and also felt that Jiang Xia looked a little strange: "Are you sleepy?"
Jiang Xia responded vaguely: "A little bit, maybe I slept too late yesterday."
Conan showed a look of sudden realization: Jiang Xia went out racing again late at night?
He just thought about it in his heart and didn't say it, after all, the surrounding area was full of police. And this kind of thing that is more or less legal, it is better not to say it face to face.
Therefore, Conan's attention quickly turned to the current case.
He suddenly remembered something and asked Jiang Xia, "When Miss Shimamura and Uncle Maori were talking about their itinerary, did you want to say something?"
——Conan remembered that when Mouri Kogoro was reviewing the timeline just now, Jiang Xia's eyes kept going back and forth between him and Shimamura Sayuri, he was hesitating to speak, and he obviously noticed something.
It was only later that Xiaolan suddenly asked about Maori Kogoro dating a woman, but Jiang Xia didn't have time to say it.
…
"This..." Jiang Xia's tone became a little hesitant when he heard Conan asking about this.
While speaking, he yawned again, slowly leaned back on the sofa, and recalled:
"Actually just now, the place for a drive that Miss Takenaka took me to find, I can also see the Dongdu Beach Bridge.
"And when we were chatting, I accidentally looked through the front window of the car and saw a few dozen meters ahead, there was a man who looked like Uncle Maori - at that time, there was indeed a short-haired woman standing beside him. ."
Shimura Sayuri has short hair, what a coincidence? Conan was a little surprised: "In other words, you are also Miss Shimamura's alibi?"
"Almost. But when we got there, it was already around ten o'clock in the evening, and the murder happened at nine o'clock. I didn't see their movements at nine o'clock." Jiang Xia said, his eyes closed. Some, raving about his experiences and reasoning:
"When I mention this, I always feel that things are a bit strange. According to Uncle Mori, he and Miss Shimamura stayed there for an hour and a half.
"But when I saw them, they didn't look like they had been parked too much - there were only the tabs of the cans in the garbage bags, there were no leftover snack packages, and the drinks only had a can in their hands... It's not like I was talking for an hour. But the light was very dark at the time, and it may be that I recognized the wrong person..."
Conan shook his head: "Your observation has always been sharp. If you read it right this time, it means that the time they really got there is not at half past eight in the evening, but closer to when you passed..."
Before he could ponder this doubt, he suddenly noticed another problem.
Conan looked at Jiang Xia: "Speaking of which, you are so close, didn't you go over to say hello?"
"I wanted to go. But when I wanted to get out of the car, Miss Takenaka stopped me and said not to disturb them... I can't force her to get out of the car." Speaking of this, Jiang Xia seemed to recall a scene. As if blushing, he stopped, and after a while, he continued, "Besides, I thought that Uncle Maori went to an izakaya to drink with his friends, so I might have seen people who were very similar to him, but I didn't go there... Not too long after that, they left."
Conan was nodding and listening.
On the way to the point, he suddenly felt that something was wrong and looked at Jiang Xia: "...?" Why are you blushing?
Originally, Conan didn’t think much about it. After all, some people just like to make random connections—Miss Takenaka didn’t let Jiang Xia disturb Kogoro Mauri and Sayuri Shimamura, maybe it was just a gossip, and she wanted to make a pair.
But when Jiang Xia talked about this, he was strangely shy...
Conan recalled what Jiang Xia just said. Suddenly, I felt that I had grasped the point: Jiang Xia had to "leave" Miss Takenaka before getting out of the car...
Conan touched his chin, and the picture at that time gradually emerged in his mind.
——The moon is dark and the wind is high, and a man and a woman are sitting in a car. Jiang Xia saw an acquaintance and wanted to open the door and get out of the car to say hello, and help Xiaolan watch over her restless father. However, before getting out of the car, the "Miss Takenaka" next to him suddenly hugged his arm affectionately, pulled him back coquettishly, and continued to hold him until he persuaded Jiang Xia to give up getting out of the car to check.
Thinking of this, Conan's eyes gradually became suspicious: Why did Miss Takenaka try to prevent Jiang Xia from getting off the bus? And they just happened to go for a ride to the key point...
Is it simply not wanting to be interrupted on the date, or is there some crucial involvement between her and the murder?
…
In the corridor, secretly observing Belmode here: "..."
Although at present, Uzo has not begun to expose the method used in the case.
But Belmod followed him all the way, and combined with the news she had just heard from the police, she had roughly guessed the truth of the incident.
Combine this and see what Uzo is doing now...
Although the distance was a bit far, Belmod couldn't hear what Jiang Xia was talking to Conan.
But combined with their respective expressions and reactions, as well as Conan's suddenly solemn eyes...
Bermaud always felt that he understood the meaning of Uzo's email just now.
... Uzo probably wanted to make others think that she was the mastermind behind these cases.
Belmode: "..."...Although she did say "I want to see a behind-the-scenes perspective", that was just an excuse to hear spoilers about Kogoro Mouri.
Moreover, even if she really wanted to experience the behind-the-scenes experience, what she wanted to experience was definitely the magical planning process, and the thrill of looking down at all beings from the perspective of God and laughing at them spinning around like headless flies... Who would want to experience the behind-the-scenes perspective only in the aspect of "taking the blame"!
Belmod's expression was calm, but the cigarette in his hand creaked and deformed.
For a moment, she suddenly felt a little fortunate: fortunately, when she asked Uzzo to go out before, Uzzo always refused.
If Uzo promises every time...
