Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

Time passed by minute by minute, and Shuji Kano still had no intention of speaking.

Miwako Sato sighed. She noticed that the hands on her watch had turned to 12 o'clock. "You won. The statute of limitations has expired. Now you can tell me the truth about what happened that year, right?"

Shuji Kano didn't trust Miwako Sato. He glanced at the clock in the store and confirmed that it was already the next day, and then he prepared himself mentally to talk.

He took a sip of his wine and began to think back to that day.

"You guessed it right. Your father, Sato Masayoshi, saw my movements from the surveillance video and confirmed my identity. He advised me to turn myself in. I was disheartened and planned to follow your father to the Metropolitan Police Department.

When I was crossing the road and waiting for the red light, I saw a truck coming. At that moment, I felt that life was meaningless, so I rushed forward. I didn't expect that justice would push me away.

Maybe I am a selfish person. When Zhengyi got into trouble, I didn’t think about how to save him, but that the only person who knew my identity was finally gone...”

Miwako Sato didn't expect the truth to be like this. She hated the uncle in front of her even more. Her father was still nagging him to surrender before he died, but he had no remorse at all!

"Click."

"Meiwako, what are you doing?"

Shuji Kano looked at Miwako Sato in shock. Wasn't the statute of limitations already over? Why was she still handcuffing him?

"I think you may have forgotten that there were some force majeure events that year, which caused you to stay in Italy for one more day, so the statute of limitations has not expired."

Shuji Shikano collapsed to the ground with a dead heart. He kept this secret for eighteen years, but in the end the truth was revealed.

“Today, oh no, where did you put the policeman you attacked yesterday?”

At this moment, Shikano Shuji didn't intend to struggle any more. "At the warehouse in the sixth district of Shinagawa."

Miwako Sato felt that this place was extremely familiar. After a while, she remembered where she had heard of this place. Wasn't that where Kirihara Akaya and the others were?

She asked anxiously, "Did you tie him up?"

"I found a pair of handcuffs on him, so I handcuffed him to the iron window. I have the key. I plan to release him tomorrow. I don't think I'll keep him for a long time."

Sato Miwako almost fell down. She hoped that Takagi Shigeru wouldn't have any accidents, otherwise what would she do?

After handing Shuji Kano over to other colleagues who had arrived, she immediately drove to Shinagawa District 6.

As soon as I got off the car, I ran straight to the fire scene, wanting to see the person alive or the body dead.

When she was about to squat down and search the fire, Takagi Wataru came over and grabbed her.

"Officer Sato, I'm here, I'm fine."

"Takagi, you..."

Miyano Osamu looked at the two people who were looking at each other affectionately. He was almost dying of anxiety, "Why don't you hug each other!"

However, the development of things was beyond his imagination.

Miwako Sato grabbed Takagi Wataru by the collar and said, "As a criminal police officer, you don't even have the most basic anti-detection awareness."

Gao Mushi touched his head and apologized aggrievedly: "I'm sorry, I was too careless."

Then, Sato Miwako softened her attitude, stroked from forehead to cheek, and asked softly: "Does it hurt?"

Gao Mushi bravely held the hand of his beloved, "It doesn't hurt much..."

After eating too much dog food, Miyano Osamu stepped forward to interrupt them.

"Let's go, the arsonist has been arrested and the fire has been put out, let's go back and interrogate him."

I saw his figure out of the corner of my eye, and the two of them separated in an instant.

Almost simultaneously, the two men lifted up the arsonist and walked towards the police car.

"Let's go too, Akaya. You are eyewitnesses and need to give a statement."

Kirihara Akaya and the others, who also got into Miyano Osamu's car with shining eyes, were also enjoying the dog food.

Yoshida Ayumi said excitedly: "I knew that Officer Takagi and Officer Sato were a couple!"

Kojima Genta curled his lips and said, "I don't know what Officer Sato likes about Officer Takagi. Officer Takagi's car doesn't even have air conditioning!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya guessed, "Maybe he thinks Officer Takagi is very reliable."

Haibara Ai added, "Is it reliable to be knocked down by a criminal with one blow?"

"Haha, I just said it casually."

After knowing the truth about her father's case, all the invisible pressure on Sato Miwako disappeared, and her relationship with Takagi Wataru improved rapidly.

Colleagues like Miyano Osamu would eat a handful or two of dog food every day.

After this incident, the members of the Junior Detective Team spent a week of peaceful school life.

Kirihara Akaya couldn't help but sigh: "Wow, we didn't encounter any weird cases this week!"

He found it a little unbelievable because he couldn't skip classes openly unless there was a case. It was really boring.

Yoshida Ayumi thought about the recent changes, "Not really, there is a new beautiful attic near Conan's house. Every time I pass by, I want to go in and see what it looks like inside."

Conan himself reacted calmly, "Really? I didn't even notice."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima pushed Conan away.

"Ayumi, do you like that house very much?"

"What does that house look like?"

Yoshida Ayumi noticed that her friends were also interested in the house, so she suggested, "I haven't been there either, why don't we go take a look together?"

If she was alone, Ayumi Yoshida would not take this step, but since there were several companions with her, she really wanted to go in.

"Yeah."

"Shall we go in and take a look together?"

Kirihara Akaya frowned and looked at Kojima Genta and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko. Seeing his strange expression, Conan asked in confusion.

"Aka, what do you want to say?"

"Ah, I remembered something Miyano-nii said before, but I can't remember it completely. It seems like a drunkard doesn't care about alcohol?"

Huiyuan Ai chuckled, "The drunkard's intention is not to drink."

"Yes, yes, that's it."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya understood the meaning of these words and blushed.

The idiot Kojima Genta hadn't realized that the others were teasing him yet, "What does Haibara mean by that?"

"Nothing, doesn't Ayumi want to go look at houses? Let's go quickly, or the agent will be off work soon."

Yoshida Ayumi trotted, "No, we have to go today. What if the house is rented out? Then we won't be able to see it."

They pretended to be serious and walked up to the house.

This house had been vacant for a long time and had not been rented out. The agent saw that the people who came to see the house were a few children. In order not to miss any opportunity, he invited Kirihara Akaya and others to visit the house.

"Okay, let's go in."

The house covers a very small area and the interior space is not large. Yoshida Ayumi and others looked from the bottom to the top.

Conan stood in front of the attic window and looked out. He could clearly see the Mouri Detective Agency.

This discovery gave him goosebumps.

If the people from the Black Organization rent this room, they will be able to see everything the Mori Detective Agency does!

No, he should not have been discovered yet. No one would target Uncle Maori.

Conan calmed down and left the house with the others.

"Oh, I thought this house would be well decorated, but it looks just so-so."

"Yes, the space is so small, it's totally not enough for a family to live in."

“It’s just that the appearance is better.”

They belittled the house and pretended not to like it.

Although the agent wanted to swear, his professional ethics told him that he couldn't do that.

"Children, if you like, you can ask your parents to come and see it. Bye."

Because her curiosity was satisfied, Ayumi Yoshida quickly put the matter behind her, but Conan still cared about this house.

Not long after, the house was rented out, and the first person to discover this was still Ayumi Yoshida.

"Conan, do you remember the house we visited before?"

Kirihara Akaya dug out that memory from his mind, "Ah, is that the small but exquisite house?"

"Yes, when I passed by today, I found that the agent was no longer there, and the house looked like someone had lived in it."

"What?! Ayumi, are you sure?"

"That's right, that's right."

Conan couldn't forget this incident, and after school, he ran to the house.
