Chapter 96 Mitsuhiko's Detective Notes I (2)

The members of the detective team reunited in the park, and everyone's face was full of confusion. Mitsuhiko was the first to break the silence. He frowned and said, "Is that so! He ran away! We couldn't catch him."

Conan spread out his hands, showing the empty pizza box in his hand, and said helplessly: "Yeah, I only got this box back."

Ayumi also pouted, looking a little frustrated: "Me too, the box was just thrown away not far away, but the pizza is gone."

Huihara Ai smiled softly: "Me too, but fortunately, the pizza in the box is still there."

Yuan Tai was so angry that he stamped his feet: "This is unforgivable!"

Mitsuhiko pondered for a moment and said, "What on earth is going on? It doesn't look like the criminal did this because he was hungry!"

Mitsuhiko carefully observed the opened pizza box in his hand, a gleam of inspiration flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly said: "Could the criminal's purpose be this box?"

Conan nodded in agreement: "Yeah, very likely."

The five people came to the door of the pizza shop with doubts and curiosity, and saw the police asking the manager of the pizza shop about the situation.

The store manager explained helplessly to the detective team members: "The police were just asking me if I saw any suspicious people around here. I heard that a jewel theft occurred last night."

Mitsuhiko's eyes widened: "Jewel theft?"

The store manager nodded and continued, "The police said that after the alarm sounded, the store clerk immediately chased the criminal. But he was just a little short and didn't catch him."

Conan frowned and asked, "So was anything stolen?"

The store manager sighed and said, "Well... I heard it was 10 diamonds. The police are investigating to see if there are any clues that can point to the culprit."

Mitsuhiko suddenly thought of something and asked, "Manager, do you know the size of those diamonds?"

The store manager shook his head: "I don't know. The police seemed to say it was a diamond used to be set in a ring."

Huiyuan Ai calculated silently and said, "Assuming each diamond is 1 carat, the diameter is 6.5 mm."

Mitsuhiko nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm..."

Conan frowned and asked the store manager: "Manager, do you know which jewelry store was robbed?"

The store manager nodded and turned to look for a map. As he flipped through it, he said, "Well, wait a moment."

Soon, the store manager found the location on the map. He pointed to the map and explained, "This is the jewelry store. Our store is located here."

Huihara Ai immediately understood Conan's reasoning. She nodded and said, "Sure enough. It is indeed possible that the criminal ran in this direction."

Conan went on to analyze, "Yes, the criminal may have discovered this jewelry store while escaping. In the middle of the night, no one was in the store. He may want to hide the gems here first and then escape. This will distract the police and buy him time."

After hearing this, the store manager was surprised and said, "Ah! Is the gem hidden somewhere here?"

Mitsuhiko smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "No, the gem is no longer here. But we know where it is hidden." As he said that, he held up the pizza box and showed everyone the same parts that had been disassembled.

Yuan Tai began to recount their experience of having their pizza robbed: "Actually, after we left, we ran into the criminal. He suddenly rushed out and snatched our pizza."

After hearing this, the store manager frowned and said, "How could such a thing happen? But why did the thief hide the diamond in a pizza box?"

Huiyuan Ai smiled slightly and explained: "Because it's good to do this!"

Ayumi suddenly realized, "So that's it! The criminal prepared some takeout and asked you to deliver it on a motorcycle, so that the diamonds can be transported away without anyone noticing."

Yuan Tai rubbed his head and said with a simple smile: "Yes, and we can also eat pizza by the way."

Huihara Ai continued to analyze: "When we left, the criminal must have been watching nearby. He saw us leaving with the pizza box and took the opportunity to act."
