Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 471 Are you a prophet? Ask for a monthly pass (づど)

   Jiang Xia was keenly aware of that murderous aura.

   He didn't look directly there, but continued to observe with his peripheral vision.

   I saw the murderous old man and the other companions saying hello.

After   , the three companions continued to chat and walked outside the station to have dinner at the restaurant.

  The murderous old man turned to the vending machine by himself. He looked up at the colorful beverages in the machine. On the surface, he was choosing, but in fact, he pricked up his ears nervously, eavesdropping on Jiang Xia's words.

   Jiang Xia did not expect to go out casually and even get the consolation prize after missing the movie.

   He thought about it for a while, then continued to make calls, tentatively following the topic that caused murderousness just now:

"I remember that the 'Chou Silang Incident' happened 18 years ago. At that time, gangsters stole 550 million from the bank and killed a guard. Because of his careful planning, the police could not find any effective clues. A criminal policeman named Sato Masayoshi somehow locked the suspect.

"However, when he went to chase him alone, he was hit by a moving truck. After that, the rescue was ineffective, and he died unfortunately... When he fell to the ground, he used to shout the name 'Chou Silang' to the escaped prisoner. , However, the police followed this clue to conduct a large-scale investigation, but still nothing..."

   in front of the vending machine.

   Luye Xiujie overheard Jiang Xia's words, and unconsciously clenched the drink he just bought.

  ——Sato Masayoshi is his high school classmate. They, together with several other classmates, formed the baseball team in high school. They have a good relationship and have regular dinners until now, decades later.

   So eighteen years ago, after the robbery, although Shuji Shikano was closely shielded, Sato Masayoshi, a police officer, still recognized him from the short surveillance video and ran to ask him to surrender.

At that time, Masayoshi Sato shouted "Worry Silang" after being knocked down. In fact, he asked Shuji Shikano to "turn himself in", but at that time, Masayoshi Sato was seriously injured and his pronunciation was slurred. The name "Chou Silang" led the police to take a fork in the investigation.

  Shino Shuji of course did not turn himself in, but calmed down.

   The statute of limitations for this case is fifteen years. He once went abroad to study for three years, so in fact, the case has not yet passed the prosecution period - as long as it passes 12 o'clock tonight, he will be able to completely recover his freedom.

  Shuji Shikano has a case on his back, so it is inevitable that he pays special attention to the police and detectives. Coupled with the sensitive time of "there are only a few hours left before being held accountable", when he got off the subway just now, he suddenly heard the word "Chou Silang Incident", and Shuji Luye's spirit instantly became tense.

   When Xunsheng looked around, he realized that the person who uttered the word turned out to be a very famous detective, and Shuji Shikano's heart rate rose unconsciously.

   He finally decided to stay in place and observe the situation on Jiangxia's side - he waited for more than ten years for the dawn, and he must not fall before victory!

  …

  Across the phone, Sato Mikazu heard Jiang Xia's words, and was surprised that he remembered the name of the deceased criminal policeman "Sato Masayoshi".

   Speaking of which, just now she only said the words "18 years ago" and "father died in the line of duty", Jiang Xia immediately thought of the Chou Silang incident... Could it be that Conan mentioned the name of the incident?

  Sato Miwako lowered her head, saw Conan who was being hammered by several children, raised her hand and pulled the frame.

Then she put down one hand and held the mobile phone, and said to Jiang Xia with emotion: "I didn't expect you to know so much about the 'Chou Silang Incident', obviously not too old... I thought detectives wouldn't like this kind of thing. A suffocating case that cannot bring the culprit to justice even if it is solved.”

   Jiang Xia observed the growing murderous aura of Luye Shuji, and secretly added fire:

   "Don't say that. Even if the case has passed the prosecution period, since the truth has not been revealed, it is still a 'difficult case' and deserves our attention.

"Speaking of which, in this case, I've always felt that the word 'Sorrowful' and 'Go to surrender じしゅしろ' sound very similar - especially if the speaker is injured, he can only say it intermittently "To surrender", the difference between the two sounds even smaller.

"Following this line of thinking, your father was an active-duty criminal police officer back then, but he didn't report the criminal's clues, but went to persuade him to surrender alone. The relationship between that person and your father must be extraordinary. , even so close that he is willing to make an exception."

   Sato Miwako: "!"

  Eavesdropping Shuji Shikano: "!!!"

   Jiang Xia's eyes moved slightly, and he saw that the murderous aura on Luye Shuji was like a gas stove when it was ignited, from a half-dead transparent flame to a dazzling flame.

   Jiang Xia let out a slight sigh of relief and was relieved.

   Opposite the phone, Sato Miwako is just the opposite.

  She froze in place, clutching her phone.

  ——Following Jiang Xia's words, she suddenly remembered that after her father was hit by a truck, he did not die on the spot, but he remained conscious and able to speak until he saw his family members in the ambulance.

   But at that time, the old police officer Sato only said some words of comfort and encouragement, but did not mention who the murderer was.

  ...If it was just a simple act of kindness and felt that the criminal this time was very pitiful, so he wanted to set aside time for the other party to surrender, then Masayoshi Sato would never give in to this level.

   allows his father to keep a secret until he dies, leaving room for the gangster to turn himself in... Jiang Xia is right, that person is definitely someone who has a very close relationship with his father!

  The interpersonal relationship of a single person is limited, and people who are close to this level are very rare. If you follow the investigation, you will definitely find decisive evidence - after all, according to Sato Miwako's knowledge, the stolen money that was stolen at that time has not yet entered the market. At that time, as long as you look for this huge sum of cash around the suspect, you will be able to catch the other party's tail.

   But soon, her eyes full of light calmed down again, and said softly: "...The prosecution period for the case has passed for a long time."

On the other side of the phone, Jiang Xia seemed to hear her loss, and comforted her half-jokingly: "Think for the best, in case that person is more cautious and goes abroad to hide for more than three years when it is easy to be exposed, then the prosecution period has not expired. - I've seen a few cases like this before."

   Officer Sato: "!"

  Shuji Shikano, who went to Italy to study for three years: "?!!!"

   Jiang Xia felt the obvious rigidity of the murderous aura.

   After this sentence, although the murderous aura still increased, it did not have the same sudden increase effect as before.
