Chapter 235 Interrogation Room II (5)

In Kambara Yasushi's house, the aroma of tea wafts through the air, but Conan and Maori Kogoro are not thinking about tea. After their previous conversation and observation, the two are quietly discussing the details of the case.

Conan frowned: "I still don't think Kamara Yasushi is lying."

Maori Kogoro also nodded in agreement: "Yes, at present, Mr. Kitao's alibi is still valid."

At this moment, Pu Yuanbao seemed to remember something and said, "Come to think of it, the teacher did go out once during the trip."

[Audience platform, hey, hey, Kambara Yasushi, you are the one who gave false testimony for the teacher! Aren’t you setting a trap for Kitao teacher?

Kambara Yasushi, I am just an ordinary citizen, I will say anything if I am happy to chat. 】

Maori Kogoro and Conan were both stunned and asked in unison: "Huh? Did you go out once?"

Kambara Yasushi nodded and explained, "Yes, I remember going out to buy cigarettes. Kitao-sensei even specifically asked for directions to turn right after exiting the entrance."

The scene at that time emerged in Kambara Yasushi's mind. Kitao Engo asked him the route to buy cigarettes, and he pointed out the direction clearly.

[Conan, actually, at this point, if I just asked whether the cigarettes were bought back, or how long it usually takes to get back from where the cigarettes were bought, the case would be clear. Unfortunately, the visual blind spot from here to the crime scene blocked my thinking.]

Kambara Yasushi continued, "He was only out for about ten minutes."

Conan asked in disbelief: "Ten minutes?"

Maori Kogoro was a little disappointed: "Ten minutes shouldn't be a problem."

Leaving Kamara Yasushi's house, the sun was still bright, but Conan felt a little heavy. As he walked, he thought about every detail of the case.

Maori Kogoro looked at Conan's furrowed brows and couldn't help but sigh: "Mr. Kitao is innocent after all."

Conan raised his head, his eyes gleaming with determination: "But something is still wrong. By the way, maybe we can find out something from Ms. Shifang Haruka."

Maori Kogoro was slightly stunned, then nodded: "Go meet her? Yes, I do want to meet her and hear what she has to say."

Walking into the handicraft shop of Sifang Yaoxiang, a fresh and natural atmosphere hits you. The shop is filled with a variety of handicrafts, each of which is unique and seems to tell the story behind them.

Shifang Haruka was a little surprised to see Conan and Maori Kogoro coming, but she soon regained her composure. She sighed softly and said, "It turns out that it wasn't Mr. Kitao who did it."

Maori Kogoro nodded and said, "Yes, that's right."

Shikata Haruka was slightly stunned, then showed a confused expression: "I am somewhat surprised that someone I know was arrested. In that case, why did Mr. Kitao say that he did it?"

Maori Kogoro thought for a moment and replied, "He seems to think you are a criminal, so he wants to protect you."

Shikata Haruka nodded thoughtfully: "Protect me, so that's how it is. Maybe it's a bit like 'a father can't leave his daughter alone'."

[Mori Kogoro, this reason is fine, but Kitao did not show such emotion. Didn't Ms. Shifang notice it? This is very doubtful.]

Maori Kogoro was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Father? This metaphor is quite appropriate."

At this time, Conan interrupted and said, "Aunt Haruka."

Shifang Haruka looked at Conan and smiled gently: "What's wrong, Conan?"

Conan hesitated for a moment, then asked, "But, Aunt Haruka, Mr. Kitao should have known that you couldn't commit a crime, right?"

Shikata Haruka nodded and explained, “Yes, when I talked about traveling in the haiku classroom, Kitao-san was there.

(Memories)

Shikata Haruka excitedly shared her travel plans in the haiku classroom: "I'm going to travel to the hot springs for a few days starting on the 20th."

Kitao Yanwu sat in a corner of the classroom and asked, "Ms. Haruka, who are you traveling with?"

Shikata Haruka replied: "With my parents."

(End of memory)

Conan silently calculated in his mind that he knew that Ms. Haruka had an alibi. This discovery made him even more curious about the truth of the case.

Maori Kogoro sighed and said, "But I tend to forget things when I get older."

Conan suddenly turned to Shifang Haruka and asked, "Aunt Haruka, do you often say terrible things like 'What if Yadou is gone'?"

Shifang Haruka was stunned, then shook her head: "I have never said that kind of words. But I did say it once three months ago, but that was just... well, it's not what you think." A blush appeared on her face, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

Kogoro Mouri and Conan left the handicraft supply store and were on their way home.

Maori Kogoro stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "I see. I didn't expect it to mean that."

Conan frowned and continued to think: "If Mr. Kitao knew that was the intention, then this kind of case...if he didn't know and hadn't given up, could it be that he was planning to kill two birds with one stone?"

Maori Kogoro sighed, "Anyway, Mr. Kitao is innocent. He has an alibi! Okay, I'm going to sober up, you go home and be safe."

[Ran Maori, Dad, are you drinking again?

Kogoro Mouri, no, you see how I looked when I arrived at the police station later, I was very sober.

Mao Lilan, where were you going? Why didn't you let Conan go with you?

Maori Kogoro is angry. I went to a place that is not suitable for children. Is that okay?】

Conan nodded and watched Kogoro Mouri leave.
