Chapter 20: The dust settles or the situation rises again?
"Tsk, I'm not responsible at this time and I'm still running to ask what the cat's condition is." Hattori complained to Conan with dissatisfaction.
"Hey, he has his own opinion." Conan was very upset about Matsuda treating himself as a child for a long time, and said perfunctorily: "Now we need to try from next door whether we can jump from the balcony."
"Ha? Could it be me to try it?" Hattori smiled bitterly, and then made a malicious guess: "It was Officer Matsuda who knew you would suggest this, so he slipped away first."
He said that, but Hattori still tied a hemp rope and tried to jump from the balcony of the next room to the first floor: "It's a little easier than I thought." Then he saw something on the tree opposite and told Conan.
When Conan stretched out to look into the distance, Akira suddenly appeared on the balcony and yelled at Conan: "What are you doing!?"
Conan suddenly fell out half of his body, and was frightened by this. Fortunately, he quickly grabbed the guardrail of the balcony, but he was also shaking.
And Kikuto was lying at the door and shrank timidly and did not dare to take a step forward. Just as Conan couldn't hold on and his hand had already let go, Sakura Ting suddenly appeared and grabbed Conan.
When Conan was pulled up, Hattori rushed to this room from the first floor. After confirming that Conan had nothing to do, Hattori grabbed Atsuto and said, "Damn it, why didn't you save people? You were obviously right next to you!"
"This cannot be blamed on Apricots. He has been afraid of acrophobia since he was a child." Yuri Jiang came over and opened the Hatred while explaining.
"Hmm? What's going on?" Matsuda walked in: "Why is it so noisy? What happened?"
"This little brother almost fell down from the second floor." Yingting explained.
"On the balcony?" Matsuda just glanced at the balcony and looked at it with a clear expression: "So, since there is nothing, then you can continue." After walking, he turned around and left. Is he afraid of heights? Now he slowly understood.
"Hey, Officer Matsuda." After Hattori and Conan chased him out, Hattori called him bluntly: "Don't you care about what we are doing at all?"
"Why should I care about the kid's tricks?" Matsuda asked back.
"You! I tell you that we just conducted an experiment and proved that we can indeed go from the balcony on the second floor to the balcony on the first floor. This way, the mystery of the secret room will be solved." Hattori choked and fought back proudly.
"This kind of thing, within one minute, I can jump off the first floor on the balcony on the second floor, and then climb back to the second floor from the balcony on the first floor, but so what? What can it prove?" Matsuda spread his hands: "We are not playing detective games. Every word we say must be thoughtful and we must tell the evidence."
"Hey, evidence?" Hattori wanted to tell Matsuda what he found in the tree, but now he has no idea at all. He sneered, turned around and left, and began to eagerly see what Matsuda's expression would look like after he caught the murderer.
"Wait a minute." Matsuda called Hattori and tapped his temple with his index finger: "It's evidence. If you want to find the murderer, then you must bring conclusive evidence, otherwise you will be alarmed."
"A blood-stained shirt, a knife, and a rope with tape on the front end." Hattori and Conan climbed onto the tree and found what they saw: "This way it's over, we mastered the secret room technique."
"That's right, but I still feel that there are still many things that are wrong." Although Conan was very happy, he still expressed his doubts.
"Yes, there are many doubts." Hattori began to be confused: "Speaking of it, does that guy Matsuda know what?"
"Go and ask? Exchange some information?" Conan suggested.
"No." When I think of Matsuda's indifferent face, Hattori felt that he was underestimated: "Kudo, with the mystery that you and I can't solve even if you and I work together, how could he find the answer?"
At this moment, the man under the tree shouted to them: "Hatsuke, Conan, it's raining, hurry up and get down!"
It was raining? After getting this prompt, the two people suddenly remembered something and smiled at the same time.
In the room where Shigematsu's body was found, Hattori called all the relevant personnel to the scene, and then reasoned that the murderer was Sakurato Yuki, the servant of Morien's family.
The secret room method is to use a rope with tape to lock the balcony door from the outside through the small hole in the glass, and then jump from the second floor balcony off the first floor.
Although Kataki Kaeduki tried his best to confirm that Sakura Ting was with her at the time, Megu still decided to take Sakura Ting back to the Metropolitan Police Department for the next step of investigation.
During the whole process, Matsuda said nothing, and he whispered when Matsuda kanako passed by after taking Sakura Ting away: "I hope your plan will succeed. But no matter what you do, at least let us see the evidence."
When he returned to the Metropolitan Police Department, Matsuda rarely applied to stay and take care of the suspect this time. Of course, Megu would not easily believe this kind of thing: "Brother Matsuda, what do you want to do? You probably aren't on duty today."
"Is it a very difficult thing for me to ask for it?" Matsuda asked aggrievedly.
Hey, what do you think? When I was on duty, I was yelling that there were children at home to take care of something. Megu rolled his eyes and ignored Matsuda's grievances: "Where is Xiao Ai? Why can you feel at ease if you leave her alone at home today?"
Do I want to tell you that what I am not at ease is here? After seeing Megu off, Matsuda called first and told Xiao Ai that he worked overtime tonight.
Then he poured a glass of water to Sakura Ting in the inquiry room. Seeing his depressed look, he comforted him and said, "Don't worry, we will investigate the truth clearly, and it should be over tonight."
End? Sakura Ting raised her head and said to Matsuda: "I didn't kill anyone! I didn't kill Mr. Shigematsu!"
"This kind of thing is not what you say, nor is it what we say. However, there should be a result soon." Matsuda smiled lightly: "You may go out tomorrow."
After calming Sakura Ting's mood for a little, Matsuda left the inquiry room and sat on a chair by the wall through the glass to observe Sakura Ting's actions inside.
"Does Officer Matsuda think he is not the murderer?" Takagi, who was beside him, also heard the conversation between Matsuda and Sakura Tin. He was able to be on duty with the Officer Matsuda whom he admired, of course he would like to ask more questions.
"As a detective, if you easily conclude a person's sin, it will be easy to destroy someone's life." Matsuda said calmly: "And there are many doubts this time, and the young Hattori's reasoning is full of loopholes."
"Huh?" Takagi was stunned when he heard this. In his opinion, the impeccable reasoning was actually said by Matsuda as full of loopholes. "Then why should I bring Mr. Sakura Ting back? If Police Officer Matsuda refuted Hattori at that time..."
"This is their plan, in order to lure the snake out of the hole." Matsuda frowned and said, "In this case without any direct evidence, it is not convenient for us to intervene in the identity of the police. Otherwise, those jury people will start to pick on the verdict again. There are fewer people, lack of confidence, and there are too many people and are prone to flaws. The murderer may not take the bait. I can only rely on them, hoping that they can be quicker and have other special circumstances, and eventually they will be alarmed."
Oh? Did you stay and wait for news because you were worried? Takagi had an enlightenment in his heart, and when he knew Matsuda's thoughts, he admired him even more.
The next day, Hattori and Conan brought the surrendered Kikuto Morieno to the Metropolitan Police Department, and Yuji Sakura was acquitted and returned.
He ignored Hattori's power and power. In order to avoid Ye Chang Mengta Matsuda used the fastest speed to collect materials, collect information, and then reported for inspection. After seeing Morizo Kikuto being taken away by Prosecutor Kyujo, Matsuda was relieved. This way, it was settled and he could have a good rest.
But what Matsuda didn't know was that he welcomed a special visitor in the prison of Kikuto Morien who was temporarily detained and waiting for trial.
"Hello, are you Mr. Kikuto Morito's heir to the Morito family?" A young man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a gentle smile on his face introduced himself: "My name is Asano Ekawa, who is a private lawyer. My client feels that Mr. Kikuto has been treated unfairly, so he wants to help Mr. Kikuto."
"Help me?" Kikuto sneered: "I killed someone."
"No, Mr. Kikuto, don't underestimate yourself." Asano Ekawa smiled unabashedly: "I have read the file, but the police have not obtained direct evidence to prove that you killed Mr. Shigematsu, the housekeeper in your family."
"In fact..." Kuruo said impatiently. He felt that this person who suddenly appeared as a lawyer was particularly annoying, especially his smile, as if he was laughing at him.
"There is no fact." Asano Ekawa interrupted Kikuto's words: "Mr. Kikuto is now a legal society, and all facts need to be evident. It is better for Mr. Kikuto to say less about the terrifying words of killing."
"Speaking of this, as the heir to the Morito family, how could Mr. Kikuto have such a wealth and social status have the reason to have a dispute with his housekeeper?" Asano Ekawa said to himself: "Even if you are willing to give up your freedom and reputation in exchange for this matter to come to an end, how sad and lost should Mr. Katsuo, the owner of the Morito family?"
Freedom, money, status. Although Asano did not say it clearly, Kikuto still heard his voiceover, and his heart began to move as if dead and ashes.
"What to say." Seeing Kikuto move, Asano smiled without a trace and poured oil on the fire: "I believe Mr. Yukishi Sakurato and Miss Kataki Feng don't want Mr. Kikuto to suffer such grievances?"
"You..." After hearing these two names, Kikuto finally responded: "Can you help me get rid of my sin?"
"No, no, no." Asano shook his head in disappointment: "If you believe in this fabricated fact, then how can I defend you? If Mr. Kikuto wants to see your friends one day earlier, please stay consistent with me. In fact, when it comes to misunderstandings like getting rid of sin, I prefer to use the rhetoric of proven innocence."
