Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

The fall from the building was of course a homicide. Nagai Mitsuru sent an email to Haba Shira to explain the situation, and then watched Inspector Megure from the First Investigation Division come with Takagi Wataru and others to solve the case.

Nagai Hikaru sighed, "As expected."

"Sure enough?"

Nagai Hikaru turned to look at Takagi Wataru who was holding a notebook in the back: "What are you doing standing here?"

"I wanted to ask if you saw the perpetrator?"

"what?"

Takagi Wataru was a little embarrassed: "When you were here, didn't you see the perpetrator directly?"

“…It’s not always the case.”

Takagi Wataru looked regretful.

Nagai Hikaru stood downstairs, watching Conan follow Takagi Wataru and others up to the fourth floor, and asked each person for their alibi one by one. When he saw them find the victim's cell phone and take it away.

I heard a bark.

"Sally?" Nagai Hikaru turned around in surprise and saw Hayao Mitsukoshi walking slowly towards him with Sally.

"Someone's dead?" Habashiro walked over to Nagai Hikaru and looked at the body that the police had marked with a white line. "Falling from a building?"

"Yeah, it seems like he dropped it while trying to get his phone." Nagai Mitsuru spread his hands, "Why are you here?"

"I was just about to go out to walk the dog when I received your email. So I came to take a look." Hanako Hashira looked up at the height of the fourth floor, "There? Where he fell?"

Nagai Hikaru nodded.

They saw the people coming downstairs looking at them.

Sera Masumi walked over with some confusion and looked at Haba Shiro.

Nagai Hikaru introduced, "This is Hanaba Haku, the brother who is taking care of me now." Then he pointed to Sera Masumi, "This is Ran and the others' classmate, Sera Masumi."

"Scotland." Sera Masumi said suddenly.

Haba Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You are Scottish, right?" Sera Masumi was a little excited. "Yeah, it's me. You taught me the bass, remember? You were with my brother at that time."

"I don't remember, I've never seen him, I don't know him." Yuba Bai said calmly.

"Impossible, I remember it very clearly. You had short hair back then, and you had a little beard." Sera Masumi confirmed, "I have a very good memory for people's appearances. I will not forget the children I met ten years ago."

Sally, who was being led by Shiraha Haba, wagged her tail and raised her front legs to try to put them on Nagai Hikaru.

Nagai Mitsuru caught Sally's front legs, shook her paw, and watched the scene with interest.

A thoughtful look appeared on Habashiro's face. "You said you saw me with your brother. Who is your brother?"

"My brother is..." Sera Masumi paused, as if thinking of something, and did not continue speaking. He only looked at Hakari Haba's face seriously again, "Scotland, I heard someone call you that."

"You got the wrong person." Haba Bai took out a cigarette from his windbreaker pocket and lit it slowly. "I have never seen you before, and I don't know what you mean by Scotland?"

"Impossible!" Sera Masumi raised his hand to grab Hayao Miyazaki's hand, but Hayao Miyazaki was faster. The moment Sera Masumi reached out to grab him, he turned the cigarette in his hand over, and the burning cigarette butt burned the palm of Sera Masumi's hand.

Sera Masumi screamed and quickly withdrew her hand: "What are you doing?" She looked at the red spot on the palm of her hand, and the wound had quickly formed red blisters.

"What are you doing?" Yuba Bai looked at the cigarette he had just put out and frowned, "You were the first one to do it."

"I want to see your hand." Sera Masumi held her burned right hand and said seriously, "I want to see your hand."

"Why?"

Nagai Hikaru put Sally's paw aside, walked over and took Haba Shiro's right hand, removed the cigarette from it, flipped it over and handed it to Sera Masumi: "Do you want to see Brother Shiro's hands? He never plays the bass, so he doesn't have calluses."

Sera Masumi looked at the hand in surprise. It was very clean, without any trace of calluses. "What about the left hand?"

Nagai Mitsuru let go of Haba Shira's right hand and tried to pull his left hand. He didn't move it at first, so he looked up at Haba Shira and softened his voice: "Please, Brother Shira, let her take a look."

Bai Yuba frowned, raised his left hand to transfer Sally's leash to his right hand, and then spread out his left hand.

It's still clean, only the nails of the middle and index fingers are slightly yellower than the others. If you don't look closely, you won't see it, it's the mark of smoking too much. But there are no calluses. Even if you use a protective fingertip on your right hand when playing bass, there will definitely be some marks on the left hand where it presses the strings. Even if you don't play for a few years, calluses are not so easy to soften and disappear.

Sera Masumi looked at the fingertips of that hand in disbelief, while his other hand was pressing the burn on his right hand: "How is this possible?"

"Maybe you recognized the wrong person?" Nagai Mitsuru said gently, "The last time you saw me was many years ago, and you only met me once."

Haba Shiro retracted his left hand, took the cigarette from Nagai Hikaru and relit it: "I don't know what's wrong with you, but your hand is the price you pay for your rudeness."

Sera Masumi wasn't paying attention to what he said and seemed to be lost in her own thoughts.

On the other side, a crowd of people gathered in one place. Conan seemed to have just noticed this place and shouted over here: "Sister Sera, the director has filmed the falling scene. Do you want to come and see it?"

At this time, Sera Masumi reacted and smiled at Nagai Mitsuru: "Sorry, I think I really made a mistake." Then he turned and ran towards the crowd to watch the video camera.

Nagai Hikaru touched his chin and said, "Brother Bai, shall we go and take a look too?"

Bai Yuba held a cigarette in his mouth and pulled Sally's leash shorter: "Can't we leave until the case is solved?"

"Yes, everyone present is a suspect." Nagai Mitsuru shrugged, and the two of them took Sally to the crowd.

The video had already been played once, and the crowd, who didn't understand what was going on, dispersed a little.

Only Inspector Megure, Conan, and Sera Masumi repeated it again.

"It's a pity that the most critical fourth floor was not captured in the picture, and besides Xiaolan and the others, only four people were captured in the picture." Takagi Shigeru said in a low voice.

Habashiro stood behind Takagi Wataru with a cigarette in his mouth: "Replay it again."

"Ah!" Takagi Wataru was startled and turned around to look, "Ah, Mr. Yuba, when did you come? Are you here to pick up Nagai-san again?"

"Well, play the video again."

"Okay... okay." Takagi Wataru nodded quickly and turned back the time a little.

After someone fell to the ground in the video, Yuba Bai reached out and clicked pause, then pointed at a person and said, "Why are everyone else looking down at the body? She's still looking up at the upstairs?"

"Ah! Yes!" Conan said in surprise, "What is she looking at?"

"Maybe she saw something?" Officer Megure shouted, "This is Miss Yui. Takagi, go ask Miss Yui."

"Yes!" Takagi Shigeru nodded, turned around and ran to ask.

Sera Masumi carefully looked at the paused screen, then turned to look at Hakari Ueba and said, "You have a good eye for observation. What do you do for a living?"

Bai Yuba glanced at her, took out the cigarette with two fingers, shook out the ash, turned around and walked away.

Conan looked at the two of them strangely, then looked in the direction of Takagi Shigeru, and ran over to listen to Takagi Shigeru's questions.

Nagai Mitsuru smiled awkwardly at Sera Masumi: "Brother Bai might not be in a good mood today. Oh, his job is to take care of me. Didn't my house in Beika Town burn down last time? So he came here specially to protect me."

"But you seem a little afraid of him."

"Because he's my brother, I'm sorry, Sera, please go to the hospital to check your hand. I will compensate for the medical expenses."

Masumi Sera shook her head: "It's okay, it's just a minor injury." She looked up and saw Haku Haba holding Sally and slowly walking towards Takagi Wataru who was questioning people.

"Is there really someone who looks that similar?" Sera Masumi murmured.

"Why not? Conan and Shinichi looked exactly the same when they were children." Nagai Mitsuru said with a smile.

Sera Masumi looked at Nagai Hikaru with a complicated expression: "Have Conan and that Kudo appeared together?"

"Of course, often. But you'd better not tell everyone that Shinichi showed up. He's in some trouble and can't show up in front of people." Nagai Mitsuru lowered his voice.

"Isn't this just an excuse?"

"When Xiaolan was on a school trip."

"what?"

Nagai Hikaru laughed softly and said, "When Xiaolan was on her school trip, Shinichi gave her a bracelet on the Shimizu stage. At the same time, Conan, the Junior Detective Team, and Okiya were riding a train at the other end of Kyoto. The two sides are almost an hour apart."

"Maybe he left the team midway...he only showed up for a short while?"

"Then you can ask Ayumi and the others. Conan always goes to the bathroom with Mitsuhiko and the others." Nagai Hikaru looked at Ishira Masumi, "Maybe you can remember that Xiaolan and I, who met once ten years ago, were really strong, but like Brother Bai, is he really the Scotland you met? Or is it just your wishful thinking?"

Sera Masamune showed a hesitant look on his face.

Nagai Hikaru smiled and walked towards Takagi Wataru where the crowd was gathering.

The makeup artist named Yutian seemed to have found some reason to defend herself, but Conan asked a few more questions. She began to look a little panicked, but still within the range of panic that a normal person would experience after being suspected.

Habashi walked up to Takagi Wataru and said, "Since there are no clues, can't we search them? Check the belongings of all the people present at the time to see if anyone has any suspicious items."

Youtian's face became truly panicked at this time, and the deputy supervisor Odo who had just come to listen also changed his face.

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan noticed the arrival of Haneba Shira. Suzuki Sonoko smiled and said hello: "Mr. Haneba, are you here to pick up Xiaoguang?"

Bai Yuba nodded, then suddenly turned his head and looked in one direction.

Kyogoku Makoto and Haba Shiro stared at each other, their faces showing fighting intent. Haba Shiro was a little puzzled, but instinctively glared back, both of them had fierce eyes, even the people around them could feel the burning fighting intent of the two.

Mao Lilan hurriedly grabbed Suzuki Sonoko and said, "Sonoko, go and explain to Kyogoku."

"What to explain?" Suzuki Sonoko looked confused.

Mao Lilan leaned close to her ear and lowered her voice: "You praised Mr. Yuba for being handsome before, and Kyogoku was jealous."
