Chapter 702 Takoyaki Alibi (2)

"Huh? Of course!"

Hearing Gao Yuan's sudden question, the owner of the stall selling takoyaki said it as a matter of course, but his expression was slightly puzzled——

"After all, no one comes to my place to buy things with -yen bills. Of course, it is impossible to find out the -yen bills. If someone uses -yen bills here, then I will definitely be impressed. "

The boss who sells takoyaki replied in this way, and then glanced at Masahiko Michiwaki who asked him if he had seen him just now, with a slightly helpless expression——

Unfortunately, thousand-yen banknotes are different from ten-thousand-yen banknotes. There are quite a few people who use -yen banknotes, and you can meet them very often. It’s really impossible to leave an impression on them. What’s more, today is such a busy day. Come.

——"What's the matter? Brother Zhizhi, what's the problem?"

Regarding this, the curious Tie Zhuyu asked in puzzlement.

After getting this answer, Gao Yuan bowed his head and was silent for a moment, thinking slightly:
"If according to Mr. Michiwaki's statement, he spent yen notes to buy a takoyaki from the boss's takoyaki stall... and since the boss received the yen notes, he has no chance to treat these notes as If you find the change, that means the banknote should still be in the hands of the boss, right?"

"what?"

At a loss, hearing Gao Yuan's analysis, most of the people present were at a loss, and didn't understand the significance of Gao Yuan's point——

"It's fingerprints!"

But immediately, Conan pointed out the meaning:

"If what brother Michiwaki said just now is true, then as long as you investigate all the thousand-yen banknotes in the hands of the boss, as long as there is a fingerprint of brother Michiwaki on one of the banknotes, it can prove that brother Michiwaki is indeed in the The takoyaki bought at the owner's stall, not the takoyaki bought by other means."

"Oh! Yes!"

Hearing this, Henggou Sanwu suddenly realized, so he immediately confirmed to the takoyaki salesman:
"The thousand yen you received today, can I trouble you to investigate it for us?"

"Well, of course."

Nodding, the boss agreed.

So, after the police collected Masahiko Michiwaki's fingerprints, they asked the police officers of the forensics department to compare the fingerprints left on a stack of -yen banknotes taken from the owner of the takoyaki seller.

Then, before the results of the investigation come out, everyone can only wait for the time being——

"Brother wise, don't you think he is the murderer?"

In this regard, seeing Gao Yuan think of a way to help Masahiko Daowaki prove his alibi, Tie Zhuyu couldn't help asking.

But Gao Yuan's expression was very dignified, and he said silently:
"It's hard to say, but it's better to investigate all the clues..."

Saying so, Gao Yuan couldn't help looking at Masahiko Michiwaki, who was standing next to Sonoko, thoughtfully——

To be honest, I have a feeling that this name seems to be a certain character that appeared in the original work, but the original work has so many plots, and there are so many characters in various daily events, it is impossible for me to remember every one of them. Therefore, for a while, Gao Yuan couldn't think of which plot this character appeared in the original work.

Moreover, shouldn't it be time for the "Night Baron Murder Incident" to happen?

Why did a murder related to the fireworks show suddenly happen?
Is this also the plot of the original?

Not impressed...

So, when Gao Yuan was in doubt, after a while, the investigation results of the forensics department came out——

The fingerprints of Masahiko Michiwaki were found on a brand-new thousand-yen banknote received from the owner of the stall selling takoyaki. At the same time, apart from the fingerprints of Masahiko Michiwaki on this banknote, only the owner fingerprints.

In this regard, after reaching this conclusion, Henggou Shenwu couldn't help saying:
"Then it seems that Michiwaki-san did go to the stall to buy takoyaki, so it is basically certain that your alibi is valid."

Hearing this, Michiwaki Masahiko couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief from his originally tense mood, and then Michiwaki Masahiko said with a little helplessness:

"That's right... I told you that I went to buy takoyaki, so it's too unreasonable to suspect someone for no reason!"

Saying that, Masahiko Michiwaki said to Sonoko:

"You said so, Yuanzi?"

"Yup!"

Seeing Masahiko Mowaki's suspicion cleared up, looking at the gentle and handsome man in front of him, Sonoko couldn't help but echoed:

"At the end of the day... I suspect our friends for no reason. Is this how police officers handle cases?"

As he said that, Sonoko glanced at Henggou Sanwu beside him——

If the police officer hadn't suspected Gao Yuan on the grounds that he was "interested in women with brown hair" as soon as he came up, he wouldn't have doubted Mr. Daowaki and Mr. Zhizhi based on this doubt for no reason. over again.

And probably understood the meaning of Yuanzi's insinuation, Henggou realized this easy-going police department, so he could only smile bitterly in embarrassment, so as to relieve the embarrassment——

"Thank you very much, Mr. Detective!"

In this regard, since Gao Yuan's idea in this matter is the most critical point to help Masahiko Michiwaki prove his alibi, Masahiko Michiwaki walked up to Gao Yuan in an easy-going way, thanked him, and at the same time threatened Masahiko Michiwaki Masahiko also looked at Tie Zhuyu beside Gao Yuan, and gave her a gentle smile, and then Masahiko Michiwaki continued to look at Gao Yuan:
"If it wasn't for your thoughts, I would have been wronged for no reason!"

"Easy to do. I'm a detective after all!"

Gao Yuan nodded, and replied lightly——

"Besides, it's too early for you to be happy..."

Immediately, as soon as these words came out, Masahiko Michiwaki's expression on the face that was originally smiling with Xu gradually froze.

At the same time, everyone present was greatly surprised by Gao Yuan's sudden words, and they were a little confused, so——

"Hey?"

Dazed, Masahiko Michiwaki still had the smile just now on his face, and his expression was so stiff that he didn't recover from it, but there was still a puzzled voice in his mouth——

"The owner who sells takoyaki has a thousand-yen banknote with your fingerprints on it, which only means that you did buy takoyaki at the stall, but it doesn't mean that you bought takoyaki at that time. Since the boss didn't I don’t remember who ever went to his stall to buy takoyaki, so now with this banknote with your fingerprints on it, there is no way to prove when you bought the takoyaki.

"It's entirely possible that you've already bought the takoyaki before that, and then waited for the right time to take out the takoyaki you bought a long time ago as your alibi!"

Faintly, Gao Yuan mentioned a possibility, completely ignoring Michihiko Masahiko's face, and made this kind young man who greeted him feel a little embarrassed——

After all, judging from the dictation of Kashiwagi Shiyin and the others, subconsciously, Gao Yuan didn't have a good impression of this man who accosted Tie Zhuyu and Suzuki Sonoko one after another...
