Ke Xue: Miss Haiyuan wants to attack the police again today?

It’s really hard to get used to taking the train to work now that we have a new home.

Higashino Ning strolled around the system mall, thinking that since 3 of the 20 reward points had been used, he might as well just buy a car.

Taking into account his own economic level, he didn't care about a car that was too high-end. There happened to be a Toyota that could be exchanged for it, and it could also take him to chase the sunset.

The efficiency of the system is still very high.

Spend the 7 reward points and you can pick up the car after get off work.

Come to the Metropolitan Police Department.

I didn’t see Yuki Nagasawa today.

"Can I still take two days off in a row?"

Dongye Ning didn't think about it carefully and walked directly upstairs.

Not long after he went upstairs, he heard Officer Nakamori screaming in the large conference room, shouting things like "We must catch Phantom Thief Kidd."

It seems that today is the official start of the theatrical version.

It's a pity that this theatrical version really has little to do with him at the moment.

"Officer Higashino? Good morning!"

At this time, Mao Lilan, who was sitting on the bench in the corridor waiting, stood up and waved to Dongye Ning.

Last night, she learned about Kudo Shinichi's general movements through Higashino Ning, and now Higashino Ning still lives in Kudo Shinichi's family.

Therefore, Mao Lilan subconsciously felt that she was more familiar with Dongye Ning than before.

Higashino Ning responded with a warm greeting, then looked at Conan and asked, "Why are you here?"

As he said that, he looked at the conference room and then "suddenly" said, "Oh, Mr. Mori must have been invited by the Search Section 2 to be a special operations consultant, right?"

Mao Lilan smiled and shook her head, "No, it was Yuanzi's father who invited my father to participate."

Then, as if she was worried that Higashino Ning wouldn't remember, she quickly added, "That's the girl who was with us at the door of the police station last time."

Dongye Ning's eyebrows trembled, "Oh... that... um... she was the more enthusiastic girl, I remembered it."

It’s time to say it or not. It’s really tiring to pretend that I don’t know him.

After a brief exchange of greetings, the "pre-war meeting" happened to be over, and Mouri Kogoro was not surrounded, but came out alone.

After saying hello, Dongye Ning watched several people leave, then returned to the office to wait for the case to happen.

Today should be another very leisurely day, after all, Conan is going to Osaka to meet people.

"Speaking of which, since we are in Osaka...how can I get involved?"

Higashino Ning thought about it carefully and felt that there was nothing to worry about. Every movie version would have Tokyo Police F4. What did he have to worry about?

He who has already joined Tokyo F5 will definitely be able to participate!

Unfortunately, the leisurely day that Higashino Ning expected did not happen.

11:47 am.

The police call came into the Metropolitan Police Department.

Another murder.

But this time it seems to be easy to solve, because the murderer was sleeping in the deceased's room and was caught by the first person who found the body.

Megure Thirteen is going to give a quarterly work report today, and Shiratori Rensaburo is on his way to Karuizawa for vacation.

So the police officers became a combination of Higashino Ning + Takagi Wataru + Sato Miwako.

To be honest, if possible, Higashino Ning would really like to give his good brother a chance to investigate the case alone with Miwako Sato.

But...ahem, didn't I just spend a lot of money, and I need to replenish my reward points.

The crime occurred in Room 504 of a building.

"Officer Takagi, why do you seem a little uncomfortable?"

In the elevator, Miwako Sato looked to her side in confusion.

Hearing the sound, Takagi Wataru immediately stiffened and scratched his head, "No... no... I'm pretty relaxed ha... ha..."

Although he cannot create the opportunity to solve the case alone, Higashino Ning can assist in other ways.

For example, occupy the position at the entrance of the elevator and let Takagi Wataru and Sato Miwako stay behind.

Now the distance between the two is only twenty or thirty centimeters. If there is an accident in the elevator now, Takagi Wataru can immediately put Miwako Sato into his arms.

It's a pity that the elevator is in very good condition.

When the door opened, Dongye Ning saw two men waiting in the corridor.

He stepped forward quickly, "Which one is Mr. Kitagawa Kaede who called the police?"

The taller and thinner man immediately raised his hand, "I am."

Although Sato Miwako is one level higher in terms of position, she still prefers to let Higashino Ning be the operational commander.

So Higashino Ning got over the addiction of being a police officer in advance and asked Mr. Kitagawa to lead them in to inspect the scene.

Since the car was driven by Miwako Sato, a hot-tempered car god, it would take some time for the forensics department staff to come over.

"Please come with me. The body is in the bathroom, and Mr. Higashida on the sofa must be the murderer."

As soon as Kitagawa Kaede finished speaking, Mr. Higashida, who was obviously still hungover, stood up emotionally and said, "I didn't kill the person!"

Hearing this, Kitagawa Kaede immediately shouted, "Who else could it be if it weren't you? As soon as I came in, I saw Miss Muranishi's body and you lying on her bed."

"I asked the administrator to open the door to the room. It would be too ridiculous for you to say that you weren't the one who killed me!"

Higashino Ning patted Kitagawa Feng on the shoulder, "Don't be impatient. Take me to see the body first."

Takagi Wataru immediately went to Higashida Yuichiro's side to comfort him.

The body was in the bathroom and there appeared to be no signs of dragging.

The cause of death was most likely suffocation. There was something like a video tape signal transmission line wrapped around the body's neck.

Dongye Ning put on gloves to conduct a preliminary inspection of the body. He found that the time of death was probably last night.

After looking at the bathroom carefully, he said: "Please, Mr. Kitagawa, please wait outside the house. The female police officer Sato outside will ask you some questions. Please make sure you don't hide anything." , so as not to cause trouble to yourself.”

Soon, the forensics department personnel arrived.

Higashi Yening arranged for them to conduct a detailed investigation of the entire room, and the body was also sent to the forensic doctor for detailed examination.

One thing to say is that there are really few forensic doctors in Japan.

During Conan's particularly active period, there were even queues to send corpses for examination.

Naturally, Higashino Ning would not be idle during the investigation. He was also carefully observing the strange things in the room.

According to Ke Xue's rules, the prisoner can basically identify Kitagawa Kaede who reported the crime.

It’s just that evidence is needed to convict someone. It doesn’t mean that you can arrest whoever you arrest.

"Officer Higashino, there are signs of movement on the furniture in the room, but it's very slight. It doesn't look like a large-scale movement."

"Officer Higashino, the door lock has been confirmed to be intact. Fingerprints were found on the door handle and chain lock, and they are being rubbed."

"Officer Higashino..."

Clues passed into Higashikata's ears one after another.

It would be better if "police officer" could be replaced by "police department".

Ah... why is progress so difficult!

Two hours passed in a flash.

The search in the room was basically over, and the questioning of Kitagawa Kaede and Higashida Yuichiro was almost over.

"Dongye, the fingerprint comparison has results."

Takagi Wataru put down the phone with a serious expression, "The signal transmission line wrapped around the deceased's neck and the fingerprints on the door handle and chain lock all match Mr. Higashida."

"I think this must be a drunken impulsive murder."
