Chapter 74: Branch, International Criminal Capture!

Dongye Ning no longer wanted to deal with his good brother, so he took the investigation manual and read it carefully.

Gao and Zuo interviewed many people yesterday, and the information they received all pointed to the reasonable fact that "Higashida killed Muranishi in a drunken rage."

Yuichiro Higashida said something like "I must teach her a lesson" in front of many people in the izakaya downstairs of the apartment that night.

If no evidence is found to prove that the murderer is someone else, then the case will basically be closed.

But Higashino Ning was able to confirm that the murderer was Kitagawa Kaede and not Higashida Yuichiro.

Because he has not received the reward from the system.

He doesn't need to wait until the case is concluded to receive the reward, he can just catch the criminal himself and bring him to justice.

Obviously, there is no reward for capturing Yuichiro Higashida.

This is also one of the important reasons why Higashi Yening had to review the natural death case again last night.

Previously, he thought that because there was no murderer in this case, he could not get the reward.

But now it seems that it is clearly the fact that the murderer was not caught that caused Sister Tongzi to remain silent.

It’s true, the natural death case was caused by the organization using APTX-4869.

"Higashiya, I think the current investigation results are enough to close the case."

Seeing that Higashino Ning had read the investigation manual, Takagi Wataru initiated an application to close the case.

Although it is not Higashino Ning's turn to decide whether to close the case, but since the good brother has spoken sincerely, he can just intervene again.

Dongye Ning shook his head, "Don't close the case yet. I think there are still problems inside. It would be safer to investigate for a few more days."

Takagi Wataru wouldn't be angry. He thought about it and agreed, "Okay, but you have to hurry up, because the prisoner has been brought back and will be escorted away the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Higashino naturally understands these process systems.

Then I'll go out in person and conduct another round of investigation later.

But before that, he needed to read today's newspaper.

Today's newspaper headlines are very headline-grabbing. The headline on the front page is "Phantom Thief Kidd was sniped by an unknown person and fell into the sea, suspected of death."

The content of the article roughly tells what happened in Osaka yesterday evening.

Kaitou Kidd took advantage of the city's power outage to find the place where Nakamori Ginzo had hidden the egg of memories. However, when he was escaping with the items, he was sniped and fell into the sea and disappeared. The egg was also picked up by Conan on the roadside.

In order to check whether the Egg of Memory was damaged due to falling from a high altitude, the Suzuki Foundation has suspended the exhibition and is preparing to use the Suzuki family's cruise ship to send it back to Tokyo for professional inspection.

"No wonder Tokyo F4 was able to get involved. It turns out that the second half of the incident came within our jurisdiction."

After roughly looking through the rest of the newspaper, Higashino left the Metropolitan Police Department alone.

What he has to do now is to investigate the case as soon as possible and then wait for the police call from Mu Mu Shisan.

Naturally, when you go out to do errands, you have to drive a police car. If you can, you can do it for free.

Arriving downstairs in the apartment where the crime occurred again, Higashi Yening did not choose to immediately go to the scene of the crime upstairs to investigate. Instead, he went to the tavern.

Different police officers interviewing the same target may sometimes get new clues.

This is not because the target deliberately conceals it, but because ordinary people are often very nervous when facing police interviews, which leads to the inability to remember some things at the time.

When they remember that they still have something to say, they will choose not to contact the police out of psychological effects.

Moreover, Higashino Ning's interview will also expand on other aspects that Takagi Wataru did not mention.

Therefore, a secondary investigation is actually very necessary.

After finishing the questioning, Higashino Ning called Higashida Yuichiro, you really deserve to die.

The depth of the conflict between this guy and the deceased is well known in this area. He even dislikes and opposes the team that the deceased likes.

The motive for the murder is completely exhausted.

There are now enough definite criminal facts to support closing the case.

It is really difficult to overturn the verdict.

Dongye Ning came upstairs with complicated thoughts and asked the building manager to open the door again.

I went into the house again to investigate and found something new.

Just like a matchbox that fell to the ground.

He opened the matchbox and saw something like a note hidden inside. It unfolded to reveal a marriage application, but there was no name in the "husband" column.

Higashino Ning can't stand the police's deliberately weakened setting.

He was sure that the matchbox forensics department personnel must have discovered it yesterday, checked it, and finally put it back on the ground intact.

As a result, he didn't hear even a word of information about this thing, which was simply outrageous!

"Is it possible that I will have to do the forensic work in the future?"

Higashino Ning felt that the investigation mode was a bit too desperate.

Come to the balcony.

"Okay, there are so many cacti here, and no one told me."

"Since there are more than a dozen pots, it means that the deceased liked them very much. And since it was raining that day, the deceased will definitely move the cactus indoors."

"So, it is unreasonable for the cactus to appear here. The murderer should have moved it here for some purpose. The drunk Mr. Higashida could not do such a thing."

Higashino Ning was talking and recording while frantically wiping the buttocks of his colleagues.

If the case is closed today and someone wants to overturn the case in the future, all these missing clues will become bullets for the police.

The main target of shooting was still Higashino Ning.

Alas... I have been walking on thin ice all my life...

After writing the last stroke, Dong Ye Ning's phone suddenly rang.

He frowned and looked up, "Fuck, how come it's already dusk?"

Dong Ye Ning quickly took out his phone and answered it.

"Inspector Megure, what's the matter?"

"Are you on a police call now?"

"Okay, I'll be back soon, please wait for me."

Theatrical version, here I come!

Call Huihara Ai first...

After telling the little loli that he had a temporary mission, Dong Ye Ning packed up his things and ran downstairs.

With the police lights on, he moved like crazy on the road to overtake and no one dared to stop him.

It took more than half an hour to get here, and less than ten minutes to get back.

As a result, as soon as he got off the car, Megure Jusan started to scold, "Brother Higashino! How can you use the police lights casually?!"

Higashino Ning shrugged, "Didn't you, the police chief, ask me to come back as soon as possible?"

Everyone: "..."

Megure Jusan was too lazy to waste time arguing with Higashino Ning on such things, "Anyway, you are absolutely not allowed to use the police lights casually unless it is an emergency. Let's set off now. The crime scene is on the sea."

This time we need to take a helicopter.

Higashino Ning didn't have a chance to speak on the way. After getting on the helicopter, he looked at Shiratori Rensaburo and asked, "Inspector Shiratori, didn't you go to Karuizawa for vacation?"

Shiratori Rensaburo smiled, "I felt it was meaningless, so I just came back again. At present, I came back in time."

This Shiratori Rensaburo was pretended by Kuroba Kaito, Higashino Ning remembered.

Unfortunately, Kuroba Kaito didn't kill people, so Higashino Ning couldn't get any rewards through him.

[The host has successfully seen through the disguise of Kaito Kidd, and now the large branch line: Capturing international criminals]

[Each successful capture of an international criminal will earn you a minimum of 10 reward points and a chance to draw a lottery. ]

Hitano Ning's eyes, which had just fallen, instantly focused on Shiratori Renzaburo's face.

Buddy, I think you smell good now too.
