Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

After regaining his freedom, Takagi Shigeru looked at the fire in front of him and knew that if he didn't leave, he would most likely be buried in the sea of ​​fire. After determining the direction, he moved quickly.

Only when he breathed the fresh air outside did he feel alive again.

Kirihara Akaya noticed a person standing not far away, and after carefully identifying the person's figure, he said, "Eh? Isn't that Officer Takagi?"

Yoshida Ayumi and the other three looked in the direction that Kirihara Akaya pointed, and the man's back looked very familiar.

The man seemed to have heard the noise behind him and turned to look at them.

"It's really Officer Takagi!"

Kirihara Akaya and the other four ran towards Takagi Wataru, "Officer Takagi, are you okay?"

When Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya saw Takagi Wataru's head still oozing blood, he exclaimed, "Officer Takagi, you're injured!"

As an adult, how could Takagi Shigeru show his weak side in front of children?

"It's just a minor injury, don't worry."

Except for Ayumi Yoshida who was still concerned about his injuries, the other three boys had already started to complain about him.

Kojima Genta was the first to fire, "Officer Takagi, you are a police officer, and yet you were knocked down by the criminal in an instant."

Kirihara Akaya echoed, "That's right, that's right, Officer Takagi, you are too lame. If it was Officer Miyano, he would definitely not be injured by the criminal."

Even the usually angelic Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya didn't let him go, "Officer Takagi, you should practice more taijutsu, otherwise other officers may not be willing to partner with you."

Kojima Genta burst into laughter: "Hahaha, are you afraid of being held back by Officer Takagi?"

Takagi Shigeru was so angry that he couldn't say a word and swallowed back the words he wanted to say in defense.

He was concentrating on talking to Officer Sato at the time, and the man attacked him from behind, but he... just didn't react. Well, his anti-reconnaissance ability was too weak, he had to admit that.

"By the way, Officer Takagi, did you see who attacked you?"

Takagi Shigeru smiled innocently and touched his head with his right hand. "I was knocked unconscious from behind, so I didn't see the criminal's face. Was he an arsonist?"

"You can ask him yourself."

Kirihara Akaya pointed at a person who was lying on the ground and still struggling.

Takagi Wataru saw a man with a face as swollen as a pig's head. It was difficult to recognize his appearance, but judging from his clothes, he was almost exactly the same as the man described by Yoshida Ayumi and the man that his colleague had met before.

"How did you catch him?"

Yoshida Ayumi raised her hand and took credit, "I remember his appearance. I recognized him as soon as I saw him. Then we followed him all the way here. He was just lighting a fire and trying to catch us. Fortunately, Akaya acted in time."

She took Kirihara Akaya's hand and pushed him in front of Takagi Wataru, who was their savior.

Genta Kojima and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya shot jealous looks at Akaya Kirihara, but the ignorant Kirihara simply thought they were thanking him.

"Haha, I told you I would protect you!"

Takagi Shigeru swallowed his saliva. He noticed the tennis racket in Kirihara Akaya's hand and asked in disbelief, "Was it the tennis racket that Akaya used to attack the arsonist just now?"

"correct."

Then the yellow-green thing he saw in the fire just now was a tennis ball!

Oh my God, it was just a tennis ball. He thought it was a new type of weapon.

While they were chatting, Conan and others also arrived at the scene, and the fire truck arrived here earlier than them.

When the fire truck arrived, Kirihara Akaya and the others finally felt relieved.

"How dare you guys run around like that!"

As soon as Conan got off the car, he went straight to where Yoshida Ayumi and the others were and gave them a scolding.

"Aren't we afraid that we won't find the arsonist?"

Huiyuan Ai was no longer gentle this time, "Even if this is the case, you can't risk your lives. He is an adult man, and you are just a group of children. Have you thought about the consequences of being discovered by him?"

Kojima Genta curled his lips, "It's not like we haven't been discovered, we have Akaya!"

I don’t know when it started, but Kirihara Aka has become their confidence when they go out.

Yukimura Seiichi heard Kojima Genta's muttering and thought to himself, "This won't work. After we return to normal, it won't be a good thing for them to get used to relying on Aka."

He stepped forward and chose to convince others with reason, "Chiye is very good, but have you ever thought that he would still be so good without tennis?"

Kirihara Akaya always showed his strong strength. The tennis ball and tennis racket were always with him. They had never seen a friend without equipment.

He answered honestly: "Although I don't want to admit it, once I leave tennis, I am just an ordinary person. At most, I can run a little faster than you, but I can't beat adults."

Kojima Genta and others lowered their heads in disappointment, but Yukimura Seiichi had not yet finished his questioning.

"Have you ever thought about another question?"

When they heard that there was another question, Kojima Genta and the others felt even more disappointed.

"Chi Ye is only one person, but he has to protect the three of you. What will he do in a critical moment? He can't split into three."

Yukimura Seiichi is a teacher they trust deeply, and what he says will be remembered by these three little kids.

As expected, the three little ones realized their mistakes and apologized to them and promised that they would not be so reckless next time.

Whether their words can be trusted depends on their subsequent actions.

After they finished educating the child, Miyano Osamu walked over to the arsonist and handcuffed him. When he saw his face, he realized that his injuries seemed to be quite serious.

Miyano Osamu asked Shiratori Renjiro beside him, "It should be okay to injure a criminal, right?"

"It's not a big problem, as long as he's not seriously injured." Seeing the arsonist's injuries, Shiratori Renjiro became a little hesitant, "It shouldn't be a big problem, right? Who hurt him?"

"Didn't you listen to what those kids said just now? Even Chi could do it!"

Shiratori Jinjiro's pupils trembled, "Use a baseball bat?"

Miyano Osamu was speechless. This guy was beside him just now, how could he hear, "Tennis."

"Ah? Can tennis cause this kind of injury?"

Shiratori Renjiro has begun to recall whether he has ever offended Kirihara Akaya. If he offended him unknowingly, he would not be punished by him, right?

"Officer Miyano, you have a good relationship with Kirihara-kun?"

"It's okay, what's wrong?"

"Cough cough..."

Shiratori Renjiro hesitated and didn't ask in the end. It was too embarrassing to be afraid of a primary school student.

At this time, a gust of "wind" flew by, and everyone looked over and found that the "wind" was actually Sato Miwako.

Just now, Miwako Sato learned the true identity of the robber from eighteen years ago through Conan's indirect questioning. He was none other than her father's high school friend Shuji Kano.

Sato Miwako didn't know whether he felt a little guilty every time he met her and her mother, but she knew that she was very angry.

When she opened the door of Shikano Shuji's shop, he looked surprised.

"Miwako, are you off work?"

"Yeah, almost."

"Then uncle will make you something delicious."

Sato Miwako sneered, "Ha."

Shikano Shuji looked at her in confusion, "Miwako, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I want to hear the truth of what happened eighteen years ago."

Shikano Shuji's body froze in place for a moment, and then he pretended to be sad, "Ah, Zhengyi is really something, working so hard, but leaving you and your daughter behind..."

Sato Miwa waved her hand and said, "I'm not here to listen to this. I'll pick a bottle of wine and we can drink and talk. How about that?"

Shuji Shikano couldn't refuse, so he had to sit opposite her.

Sato Miwako didn't care about his thoughts. She raised her hand and looked at her watch. "Uncle Shikano, you should be looking forward to today, right?"

"It's not that bad, it's just my fiftieth birthday."

"This is the day you've been planning for a long time, right? The law stipulates that the statute of limitations for criminal cases needs to deduct the time the criminal is out of the country. You finally managed to set the day when the statute of limitations expires on your 50th birthday, didn't you?"

Shuji Shikano did not respond, he remained silent.

"Uncle Luye, I just want to know the truth. My father saw the criminal's signature move in that video and discovered your identity, right?"

Time passed minute by minute, and Shuji Shikano still didn't respond.
