Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 445

Chapter 445

After dismissing the police, the store manager Masuo walked to the door of the room where the exercise bike was located, and unscrewed the doorknob.

...but failed to push the door open.

—the door was locked.

Normally, Masuo Kayo has never had the habit of locking the door of his room. When exercising, he likes to open the doors and windows for ventilation.

But today, she circled the photo album with a red pen, called the handsome young detective again, held the photo album and thought about the appropriate words, and the pitiful expression she should have when she confided... Think about it, after all, it is In her husband's house, it was unavoidable to feel guilty, so in the afternoon, Masuo Kayo turned the lock on smoothly.

... This undoubtedly brought great trouble to her husband who wanted to destroy the evidence.

Manager Masuo failed to turn the doorknob, staring at the locked door, dripping with cold sweat.

He took a quick look at the direction of the police behind him, it was blocked by a wall, and the two sides could not see each other.

Manager Masuo calmed down a little.He gritted his teeth and hurried to the study.

...don't panic.There are spare keys for the doors of the house. Although he has not used them for a few years, he is a very planning person, and he probably knows where the keys will be kept.

The second floor is huge, and the two policemen needed to search for a long time, and he had no time to destroy the evidence...

……

When the store manager Masuo was digging through the drawers in the study.

The scene on the second floor was different from what he had imagined.

Miwako Sato had already turned out of the yard before reaching the second floor.

——When she stepped up the stairs just now, through the window of the side room, she vaguely saw a suspicious figure passing by.

Officer Sato immediately became alert.

——They rushed over very quickly. Although when the robber found out that Mrs. Masuo was on the phone when he was attacked, that person probably realized that his whereabouts were exposed and would flee the scene immediately, but it was difficult to keep his courage people will want to stay and search for their belongings.

In addition, even if they were not suspects, the person who sneaked into the yard should be able to provide them with a lot of information.

Thinking of this, Miwako Sato left a sentence to Takagi, "Look for the second floor, I'll go to the yard to have a look", then quickly turned over the open window and entered the yard.

At the same time as she landed, she looked around vigilantly, and soon caught a fleeting hem from the corner of the room.

... Sure enough, there are people.

The man went around to the back of the house, what was he trying to do? !

Miwako Sato frowned, feeling that the matter was not simple, and rushed across the corner quickly.

I thought it was going to be another run.

Unexpectedly, that "suspicious person" stopped less than two meters away from the corner.Officer Sato was astonished, and with a stride of his long legs, he was already sent to the "suspicious person" by inertia.

The sudden closeness made Officer Sato, who has been fighting on the front line for a long time, feel a little sense of crisis—when Masuo and his wife came to the police station to take notes, she already knew something about the couple's situation, and knew that the family only Live with the two of them, there will be no one else.

And now, Mr. Masuo is looking for his wife in the house. As for Mrs. Masuo... Although he only glanced briefly, the person in front of him is obviously a man, and it cannot be the lady who screamed not long ago. In short, Even if the "suspicious person" is not a gangster, he is at least a thief who broke into the house illegally.

This thought flashed by, and Miwako Sato didn't have time to think about it, and grabbed the opponent's shoulder, intending to capture and knock him down first.

However, the man suddenly pulled his hand as if he had eyes behind his back, and dodged to the side.

Hiding really fast... When I started fighting, my instinct was faster than my thinking. When I recovered, Sato had already hugged the "suspicious person" from behind and made a German-style arch bridge throw that she liked. preparatory action.

Suspicious Person Jiang Xia: "..."

... Is Officer Sato short-sighted?

Almost a second has passed, haven't you noticed that she is about to attack the allies?

Jiang Xia grabbed the external pipe in front to stabilize her figure.I intend to remind you euphemistically.

But before he could make a sound, a muffled groan came from behind him.

Immediately afterwards, the strength on the waist suddenly loosened.

Miwako Sato closed her eyes sleepily, and fell straight to the ground.

"...?"

Jiang Xia supported her by hand, turned around, and saw a child holding an anesthesia watch in the corner, with a slightly dazed expression, and the appearance of "causing trouble".

—Conan also followed.

Jiang Xia glanced at Miwako Sato who fell asleep in an instant, then silently turned to Conan who caused the scene: "...Why are you stabbing her?"

They are all acquaintances, and a shout should solve the problem... But now, Miwako Sato is asleep, and he has to find another eyewitness who is easy enough...

Conan closed the watch cover awkwardly: "...I didn't realize it just now."

——As a detective who is extremely good at observation, Conan and Miwako Sato noticed a suspicious figure outside the window when they stepped up the stairs.

After Officer Sato chased him out, Conan immediately opened the cover of the anesthesia watch and hurriedly followed, intending to anesthetize the "suspicious person" depending on the situation.

Because of his slow sprinting, when Conan arrived, the two people behind the house had already started a unilateral fight.

Conan heard some fighting movements, rushed out to take a look, and saw Jiang Xia and the "sneak attacker" behind him who was about to throw him in a dangerous position.

Because Conan's mind was full of "suspicious people in anesthesia" at this time, and he was more familiar with Jiang Xia, when he saw this scene at this time, he released the anesthesia needle reflexively.

Then, he realized that he seemed to be nervous and accidentally attacked the police...

... Next time, I still have to see clearly before acting.

It took Conan a second to briefly summarize his mistakes.

Then it took another 0.1 second to forget the summary, and looked at Jiang Xia: "Why are you here?"

"A client asked me to bring the cat over, but when I knocked on the door just now, no one came to open it. In addition, when she called me before, her tone was very nervous, as if she was involved in something important. I was worried that something might happen, so I wanted to go to the lighted room, but I ran into Officer Sato on the way.”

Hearing this reason, Conan nodded clearly, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Xia breaking into other people's yards—if it was him, he would probably take the same approach.

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, she looked down at the faint pinhole on Miwako Sato's neck.

I think Officer Sato might have to faint for a few more minutes.So he didn't carry her all the time, but temporarily put the person beside him and asked her to sit against the wall first.

After standing up straight, Jiang Xia looked into the room through the window.

——This happens to be the room where Mrs. Masuo was exercising just now.Today is a cloudy day, and the outside of the house is quite dark. Instead, there are bright lights inside the room, and the scene inside is not difficult to see.
