Chapter 231 Interrogation Room II (1)

In the corridor of the Metropolitan Police Department, Kogoro Mouri frowned and looked at Officer Megure Juzo with a look of confusion on his face.

"Officer Megure, what is going on? The suspect Kengo Kitao has already admitted to the murder, so why haven't the procuratorate prosecuted him immediately?" There was a hint of anxiety in Kogoro Mouri's voice.

Conan, standing nearby, also chimed in, "Yeah, it's been a week since he was arrested."

Maori Kogoro then added: "As a member of the investigation of the suspect, I am really concerned."

Officer Megure Juzo sighed and led the two to the observation room outside the second interrogation room. He stood in front of the window and spoke slowly: "Brother Mori, the more we investigate this case, the more we feel there is a problem. That Kitao Kengo..."

[Megure Jusan, based on my experience, if this kind of case is sent to the procuratorate, there will definitely be big problems.]

In the interrogation room, Officer Takagi was sitting at one side of the table, questioning the suspect.

"So, Mr. Kitao, how did you get the victim to drink the sleeping pills?" Officer Takagi asked calmly.

Kitao Yanwu, the once respected elementary school teacher, now looked extremely tired and confused. He frowned and sighed, "I can't remember that either. Maybe it's because I'm getting old. Many things have become unclear. It's really annoying."

Outside the interrogation room, Conan, Maori Kogoro, and Megure Juzo observed the conversation inside through the one-way glass. Conan frowned, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

[Kogoro Mori, this testimony is very questionable. The old man doesn't look forgetful.

Conan, yes. Especially if it is a carefully designed case, the details will not be forgotten so quickly, unless the suspect has a reason not to say or does not know at all. 】

"Is he hiding something?" Conan asked in a low voice.

Maori Kogoro also fell into deep thought. He stroked his beard and spoke slowly: "Mr. Kitao...could it be that he is actually innocent? Maybe he is shielding the real murderer?"

Officer Megure Juzo pondered for a moment and nodded: "Well... it is indeed possible."

In the interrogation room, Kitao Yanwu suddenly knocked on the table hard, and his voice became firm and resolute: "In short, I want to atone for my sins. Whether you believe it or not, I hope you can sue me quickly."

Conan narrated the case: "The case happened in the evening eight days ago. An anonymous call to the police broke the tranquility of the idle construction site in Asahidai. The caller said that there was a suspicious car parked there. When the police arrived at the scene, they found the body of a man who had been dead for several hours in the car. The deceased was the owner of the car, Honda Masato, who was only 25 years old."

Conan continued, "The cause of death of Honda Masato was carbon monoxide poisoning caused by burning honeycomb coal. But strangely, the police found sleeping pills in his body. Therefore, the police suspected that he was poisoned after being knocked unconscious."

[Conan, this is a very strange murder design. If the person was poisoned by carbon monoxide in a car, it would be more convenient to use the car exhaust. This is how the famous Japanese writer Kawabata Yasunari died. In the end, it was classified as suicide by the police. Such a design can easily make the police classify it as murder.]

“The next day, the case was reported as a murder.”

(Conan recalls the scene at that time)

"At that time, Uncle Kogoro jumped up after seeing the report in the newspaper. "Uncle was horrified."

[Conan, ah, shouldn't this be the time when I should be very interested?

Maori Kogoro, I knew you would say that, but this time I just happen to know who the criminal is? Haha, it won't be your turn to appear. 】

So my uncle and I found Inspector Megure.

In the Metropolitan Police Department, Officer Juzo Megure listened quietly to Kogoro Mori's story with a frown on his face.

"What? You said the victim had a heated argument with an elderly man two days before he was killed?" There was a hint of surprise in Megure Jusan's voice.

Maori Kogoro nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, it is that man. I think he is very suspicious."

Megure Jusan was silent for a moment, then nodded: "This person is indeed worthy of suspicion."

[Mouri Kogoro, I am a warm-hearted and kind-hearted citizen who is always eager to provide useful clues to the police.]

At this moment, Officer Chiba hurried into the room and interrupted the conversation between the two: "Officer Megure, this is Mr. Kambara. He said he saw a suspicious person near the construction site yesterday at noon."

Kambara Bao took a step forward and spoke nervously, "The case happened in the afternoon, right? I...I think that person has something to do with me."

Megure Jusan immediately looked at Kambara Yasushi, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "Oh? You know that person? Tell me about it."

Kambara Yasushi took a deep breath and pulled out a photo from his pocket: "Actually, I know that person. He was my homeroom teacher in elementary school, Mr. Kitao Yanwu. This photo was taken at our class reunion."

Maori Kogoro took the photo and looked at it, and exclaimed in surprise: "Ah! This is the man who had an argument with the deceased!"

Conan went on to say: "The former elementary school teacher. Kitao Yanwu confessed. It was also confirmed that he had bought honeycomb coal. He was arrested on suspicion of murder. He should have been transferred to the procuratorate."
