Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO
Chapter 88 Solving the case
After Conan, Xia Xi and others said goodbye to Teacher Judy, they walked into the elevator.
"By the way, Hattori, where's Kazuha? Didn't she come to Tokyo with you?"
In the elevator, Xia Xi looked at Hattori and thought of the scene at the school festival. She felt a little strange that He Ye was not with Hattori. Didn't they always stay together?
"He Ye?" When Hattori heard Xia Xi mention He Ye, he suddenly thought of something and his face changed drastically, "Oh no! I forgot that I had an appointment with He Ye today!"
Conan was speechless. Really, since he had something to do in the evening, why did he suggest coming to Teacher Judy's place?
Xia Xi:......
Kazuha is really pitiful! She actually likes a boy like Hattori.
Sometimes she wondered if he cared more about Kudo than Kazuha. At least he would cancel his appointment with Kazuha because of Kudo, right?
Hattori took out his cell phone and checked the time. It was almost 8 o'clock. He had made an appointment with Kazuha to meet in front of a store around 8 o'clock. It was definitely too late to make it now.
The signal in the elevator was not good, so Hattori decided to call Kazuha immediately after going out, hoping that she would not be too angry.
After walking out of the apartment building, Conan and the others waited on the side, ready to leave together after Hattori finished his call.
"Oh? Wait!"
Hattori's call had just been connected, and before he could say anything, he felt his clothes being suddenly pulled back. He uncontrollably took a few steps backwards.
Conan, who was standing at her feet, was also grabbed by Nashida's hand and took a few steps back.
The two saw something falling quickly in front of them. When they looked closely, they found it was a mobile phone. Before they could go forward to check, another thing fell in front of them. This time it turned out to be a person!
Hattori briefly spoke to Kazuha, ignored the questions from the other end of the phone, hung up the phone, and rushed forward with Conan to check the situation.
Judy, who was in the apartment upstairs, checked the room after seeing Xia Xi and the others off. She was about to call Shuichi to tell him about her findings today when she suddenly heard the doorbell ring.
I opened the door with some confusion, and found that it was Xia Xi and the others who had returned.
Through Hattori and Conan's explanation, Judy learned that a case had just occurred, the victim was her neighbor, and the police had just arrived at the scene. Conan and the others came up first to ask her if she knew any information.
Judy briefly explained what she knew, and then followed Conan and the others to investigate the situation next door, using the excuse of being curious about how detectives solve cases.
Hattori opened the locked door with the key given by the victim's girlfriend downstairs, and they walked into the room and looked around. Judy also took out her camera and helped them take pictures of the crime scene.
Looking at the torn curtains in the victim's bedroom, Conan and Hattori looked at each other and immediately realized that this was a murder case.
At this time, Xia Xi noticed that Teacher Judy's camera was quietly pointed at them. She turned sideways inconspicuously, not intending to expose her appearance.
Ever since she knew Kongye was in this world, Xia Xi had been careful to avoid having her appearance captured by any video or camera. After all, she looked too much like that careless brother, and that cheap brother hadn't contacted her yet, which meant that there must be something wrong with his identity. She didn't want her appearance to be exposed and cause him trouble.
At this time, Inspector Megure had questioned three suspects downstairs, including the victim's girlfriend and two colleagues. After learning that several people had asked the same question, he immediately guessed that there were detectives at the scene, and perhaps they had already gone to the victim's house to collect clues.
Worried that they might rummage around, Inspector Megure immediately rushed upstairs.
"Hu-hu-"
"It's you guys after all—"
When Officers Megure and Takagi arrived breathlessly, they saw several familiar people standing outside the door, thinking about something. They said thankfully, "It's a good thing you haven't gone in yet. Leave the rest to us, the police."
Hattori: "What are you talking about? We have already investigated everything."
Judy also raised the camera in her hand: "Yeah, I took a lot of photos."
When Xia Xi saw Inspector Megure arrive, she was ready to turn the table over and solve the case directly. After all, this could earn her some raw stones: "Inspector Megure, this is a murder case, and I already know who the murderer is!"
Conan, Hattori Heiji: ...
You must be kidding. We are investigating this together. How come you are so fast?
Conan had already prepared himself mentally, because when he was with Xia Xi before, she often found the murderer before him, which slightly hit his self-confidence. But because of his experience, he was mentally prepared.
But Hattori Heiji was not mentally prepared, and he and Xia Xi were not very familiar with each other. During the last school festival, Xia Xi did not make much deduction, so although he knew that Xia Xi was a detective, he heard her say that the commissions she usually took were to find cats, deliver food, and occasionally teach a few hooligans a lesson, so he thought she was similar to Uncle Maori.
Unexpectedly, she could find the murderer before him. Hattori was a little unwilling and wanted to hear her reasoning.
"The murderer is you - Mr. Kawakami." Xia Xi said, pointing at a person who had just followed the police to the scene.
Kawakami's face flushed, and he drunkenly retorted loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about! I was not here when Gao Jing fell. I just called him. How can you blame me for this?"
Xia Xi: "You killed Gao Jing through the phone."
Kawakami laughed: "How can a phone call kill someone? If I scolded him on the phone and he got upset and jumped off, can he blame me?"
"Of course it's more than that. This is the inspiration given to me by Hattori."
When Xia Xi said this, she looked at Hattori. Hattori pointed at himself in confusion. He really couldn't figure out what he had done to help solve the case.
"Before, Hattori wanted to call Kazuha, but the signal in the elevator was not good, so he had to walk out of the apartment building to call. Mr. Kawakami, you used the same principle to kill Takai."
"I see......"
When Xia Xi said this, Conan and Hattori thought of the traces of movement at the victim's bed feet, and they also understood the murderer's modus operandi this time.
While drinking with the victim, Kawakami took the opportunity to enter his bedroom and move the bed. He then left and called the victim, asking the victim to move closer to the window on the pretext that the signal was bad. The drunk victim didn't know that the bed was in the wrong position, and habitually sat on the window. He didn't know that the window was not the balcony he thought it was, but the sky without any cover. He lost his footing and fell down.
Kawakami sneered when he heard this. "These are just your guesses. Where is the evidence? Without evidence, this is a frame-up. As for the bed, I did move it, but it was at Takai's request. How could I know that it would cause him to fall?"
