A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 109 Going further and further on the road of bait
When the black figure saw Noah's shifting gaze, there was a trace of panic in his eyes, he turned and ran, and Noah quickly chased after him.

In the blink of an eye, the two had disappeared on the bridge, and the three girls by the bridge looked at Noah who had disappeared, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"He Ye, He Ye!"

Hearing this familiar voice, He Ye and the others were overjoyed, and their hearts were relieved.

Hattori and others who rushed over learned that another person set himself on fire and fell into the river, and hurriedly fished him up with the police.

It simply fell into the river, and it was salvaged in time, so you can vaguely recognize its appearance.

"This is... that nanny?"

"Ah."

The faces of several people changed slightly, what is the situation of this weird Toyotomi Hideyoshi fan group, self-immolation occurred one after another.

"At first I wasn't sure if it was self-immolation or homicide, but now I'm sure it was homicide."

"How is it possible? Xiao Lan, Noah Hui and I saw this with our own eyes, and it was ignited by ourselves."

"Look at the bloodstains on the clothes on her chest. This is the blood left by the murderer."

Hattori pointed to the blood stain on the zipper suit and explained to everyone.

"By the way, you just said that Noah saw it too, and others."

"When we saw this jumping into the river, there was a black figure at the head of the bridge. Noah chased it. I don't know where it is now."

"That must be the murderer, I hope Noah can catch up."

After examining the body, the searchers found that the so-called nanny was not burned to death, but suffered severe head injuries.

"That may also be because when she jumped in, she hit the bridge."

"No, he must have killed him."

Hattori couldn't bear others' doubts, and regardless of others' obstruction, he reached out to take off the nanny's clothes and examine them carefully.

"Snapped"

A loud slap hit Hattori's face. Seeing the person coming, Hattori's glaring eyes turned incredulous.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing? This sentence should be what I want to ask you, is the corpse something that a layman like you can touch?"

"My lord, this kid is very professional in Pingji."

The uncle came up to smooth things over, he didn't want the relationship between father and son to be so tense.

"Huh, the self-righteous high school detective is far from you, Mr. Mori, you are just a layman."

"Me? A layman? A layman?"

Hattori laughed back angrily, he was about to explode with his evaluation of his father.

"Why, are you not convinced? Did you catch the murderer, or did you have any clues?"

Straight to the point, Hattori Heizo's questioning left Hattori Heiji speechless, and he has no clues yet.

"I'll find the murderer myself."

After saying this, Hattori turned around and ran out of the scene. Conan looked left and right, and followed after gritted his teeth.

Kazuha and Xiaolan originally wanted to stop them, but Hattori Heizo stopped them.

Toyama Ginshiro next to him has already issued an order to seal off the scene and drive away the onlookers.

"Otaki, the person I asked you to watch, how is the situation?"

"According to the informant's response, he has been here just now, and now he seems to be on his way back to the hotel."

"Keep watching."

……

When Noah came back, he was holding a man full of scars in his hand. He was stopped outside the scene and was not allowed to enter. Finally, Officer Otaki saw him and led him in.

"Noah, where have you been, is he?"

"Well, he is the figure on the bridge just now."

After Noah's explanation, everyone could barely see that this person was Akechi Mitsuhide from that weird tour group.

The scars, of course, were dishonest and were taught a lesson by Noah, and the surrounding policemen chose not to see them.

Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginjiro paid more attention to this person than others imagined, and interrogated him personally.

Following the man's narration and Hattori Heizang's explanation, a tragedy 13 years ago gradually emerged in everyone's mind.

Back then, in order to find the treasure of the Golden King left by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a criminal gang committed five robbery murders in a row in just two days.

The number of victims was as high as seven, one of whom was a good friend of Hattori Heizo back then, who was also a policeman, and died in the line of duty because of this incident.

In order to avenge their friends, Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginshiro frantically went looking for the murderer.

The group of murderers may have sensed that the situation was not good, and stopped their search for the treasure. In the end, the two did not find the group of people, only the tape of one of the prisoners.

And tonight, the voice engraved in the minds of Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginshiro reappeared before their eyes.

"Could it be that this group of weird tourist groups were the murderers back then."

"No, it can be confirmed now. I am afraid that there is only one person in this tour group who belongs to that group back then. The others are not sure. This is why I have to interrogate myself."

The man captured by Noah has already told everything he knows.

He came here by someone's invitation, and it was the so-called Oda Nobunaga who sent the invitation, who didn't know anything about the murdered nanny.

The people gathered in the tour group were announced on the Internet, but that person was unable to participate due to an emergency before departure, and in the end there were only five of them.

"I think that person is dead, at the hands of that so-called Oda Nobunaga."

"My lord, you... how do you know?"

Heizang took out a photo from his bosom, which was found on the burned body that was found a few days ago.

There are a total of six people in the photo, namely the nanny in the tour group, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Oda Nobunaga, there is one who has never seen it before, and an old man standing in the middle.

"The person you haven't seen is the owner of this photo. We just learned through investigation that this person is the organizer of this tour group."

"Then why isn't he in this photo?"

The uncle pointed to Akechi Mitsuhide who was lying on the ground and asked doubtfully.

"He... is just an unlucky ghost who just happened to be involved."

"My lord, you know all the details, and you still ask Hattori to take a risky investigation?"

"This is the real purpose of Yuan Shan and I. First, we want to frustrate this kid's arrogance, and second, we hope that he can seduce those robbers and murderers."

... The scene was silent for a while, except for Toyama Ginshiro, the eyes of the others looking at Hattori Heizo were full of surprise.

You are so skilled, you dare to use your own children as bait, and you are not afraid of accidents.

"The deeper Hattori goes after him, the more attractive he is to those people. The son of the boss of the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department is enough to become an important hostage in their hands."

……

At this time, Hattori and Conan were waiting at the entrance of the hotel where the tour group stayed.

After Conan's persuasion, Hattori has calmed down and began to seriously think about these two cases.

More and more suspicious points appeared, which were gradually solved by the two of them. Their eyes had already been set on the group of people in the tour group.

"Come out, the bald man is out."

"Okay, I'll call the police and notify your father and the others."

Hattori stopped Conan from calling the police. He wanted to catch the murderer himself and put him in front of the man, so that he could see if he was a layman.

Seeing Hattori following him, Conan had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​calling the police. What else can he do after his friends have said so.

What they didn't notice was that in a shadow behind them, several pairs of black shadows with fierce lights were silently watching their backs.

The bald man didn't seem to notice that there was someone following behind him. He went straight to a warehouse, stopped and walked, and finally opened one of the warehouses and walked in.

Conan always felt as if something was staring at him behind him, and felt very uneasy. He wanted to call the police before going in, but was forcibly pulled in by Hattori.

After entering, I found that the inside was pitch black, with no light at all, only the flashlight in the hand of the bald man not far in front was shining.

After Conan and Hattori entered, they dispersed. Without turning on the lights, the two couldn't see each other's position clearly.

"Conan, you explore slowly first, I will pass first."

After speaking, without waiting for Conan's response, he followed behind the bald man lightly.

It's not that Conan didn't want to make a sound, but his mouth was covered by someone, so he couldn't make a sound, and he couldn't even open his mouth to bite someone.

Being forcibly taken to a certain place in the warehouse, Conan panicked and couldn't help struggling with all his strength.

"Don't move, are you tired?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Conan stopped suddenly, and through the moonlight outside the window, he could vaguely see Noah behind him, the uncle and a group of policemen.

……

As Noah explained the ins and outs of the matter in a low voice, Conan felt very tired.

The two worked tirelessly to solve the case, but the police had already figured it out.
