Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

Chapter 508: Sato Miwako and the suspect in handcuffs

After going downstairs, everyone climbed up the stairs outside the next building and entered through the door on the next floor where Sato Miwako entered.

"Officer Sato." Takagi Wataru shouted, "Where are you, Officer Sato?"

"Strange."

"This is an art museum, right?" Huibara Ai said curiously.

When Takagi Wataru heard her words, he looked down at them in confusion.

"Yeah." Conan nodded in response.

"Why isn't there even a single painting on the wall?" Haibara Ai said, feeling something was wrong.

"They are probably going to do some renovations." Mitsuhiko guessed as he looked around.

Xingchen held his head in his hands and said, "Maybe we should move away."

"Okay, it's too dangerous here. Didn't I tell you guys to go back quickly?" Takagi Shigeru said helplessly as he lowered his head and looked at the little ones.

"Officer Takagi?!"

"Officer Sato." Takagi Wataru heard the voice and looked back, only to see the bathroom behind him.

"Takagi, I'm here."

"Officer Sato?" Takagi Wataru pushed open the door of the men's restroom, looked around and asked with a little confusion.

"Takagi, here, here."

Takagi Wataru looked up in the direction of the voice and saw Officer Sato leaning half of his body out and waving at him.

"This is the men's room, what are you doing?" Takagi Wataru said awkwardly, then walked up to Sato Miwako and asked, "By the way, where is the suspect?"

Xingchen and a few others behind him peeked out from the door. Xingchen wondered in his heart how the suspect and Officer Sato got into the bathroom.

"Ah, this. I have caught him, but something unexpected happened." Sato Miwako pulled the handcuffs on her wrists and said with an awkward smile.

"What are you doing? Isn't it generally required to handcuff the suspect's hands?" Takagi Shigeru saw that the handcuffs on Sato Miwako's wrists were connected to the handcuffs on the uncle's hands.

The embarrassing thing was that the uncle's hand just went around the drain pipe on the back of the toilet.

It is blocked at the top by the drain tank and at the bottom by the toilet body.

It's really a dilemma.

"I didn't want him to run away again." Sato Miwako smiled sheepishly, "That's why I handcuffed myself."

"What about the key?"

"I think I lost it." Sato Miwako stretched out her hand and apologized, asking, "It would be so embarrassing if the people in Section 1 knew about it. Can you help me secretly get the key?"

Xingchen and a few others looked at each other and saw that they seemed to have been chatting for a long time.

Several people walked in curiously, wanting to know what was going on.

"How could it be so secretive? The Metropolitan Police Department would have been alerted by the suspect's escape a long time ago." Takagi Shigeru said dejectedly, if he were to go back to the Metropolitan Police Department alone now.

The moment he stepped into the gate of the Metropolitan Police Department, he would be surrounded.

By then, he would really be unable to defend himself, as what awaited him was the wrath of Sato Miwako's fan club and the blame from his superiors.

The lightest loss would be this police hat.

"What's the matter? Is this the tone you use to talk to a senior?" Sato Miwako stretched out her hand and lifted Takagi Wataru's chin, saying calmly, "If we trace back this matter, it's because you didn't keep a close eye on the suspect that he escaped."

Xingchen raised his eyebrows, Officer Sato is a good colleague.

Officer Takagi, you must seize this opportunity.

"Yes, yes. You are right." Takagi Shigeru was instantly sweating profusely.

"Then I'll leave everything to you, Officer Takagi." Sato Miwako stretched out her hand and turned Takagi around, pushing his back and said,

"Okay... okay." Takagi Shigeru could only nod in response helplessly.

"It's not me. I'm definitely not the culprit." The uncle suddenly said, "I don't know what happened. When I woke up this morning, Miss Muranishi was already dead."

When Takagi Shigeru heard the voice, he turned and looked at the uncle again.

"The suspect has been saying he is innocent," said Miwako Sato helplessly.

"This is true, please believe me." The uncle said quickly.

"Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Higashida. The person who died this time was Ms. Muranishi Mami, who lived in the same apartment as you and was your superior in the company."

"The crime scene was the bathroom inside her room, and she was found strangled in the bathroom."

"Your man was obviously drunk and fell on her bed." Takagi Shige looked at Mr. Higashida and gave a brief account of what happened.

He thought the suspect was still struggling and making excuses.

Xingchen listened to their conversation, stroking his chin and thinking to himself, so that's how it is, no wonder he was considered the murderer.

"The key to the entrance door was also inside the room and the chain was locked at the time."

"The room is like a secret room. In addition, your fingerprints are on the key to the door, the door handle, the chain lock, and the videotape cable that strangled the victim's neck."

"According to our investigation, you often clashed with her at work. On the day of the incident, you excitedly told her in the bar that you would teach that woman a lesson before going home."

"After getting drunk, you went to her room and after an argument, you killed her. This is also possible." Takagi Shigeru continued to explain what happened.

"The reason you locked her up was because you didn't want her to escape. After killing her, you were too drunk to handle the alcohol and fell asleep on her bed," Miwako Sato guessed.

"I really can't remember anything about what happened that day." Mr. Higashida said weakly, leaning against the wall.

"That's because you were very drunk that night," said Miwako Sato.

"You are right. I really hate that woman because she always makes trouble for me at work."

"But I wouldn't kill her," Mr. Higashida explained with tears in his eyes.

"Then tell me, why did you want to escape?" Sato Miwako asked, suddenly feeling that something was wrong.

"Because I have to go somewhere." Mr. Dongtian murmured.

"Where?" Takagi Shigeru asked puzzledly.

"My daughter in Chicago was raised by my ex-wife after the divorce. Recently, my daughter sent me a wedding invitation. I thought my daughter had hated me for the past 17 years."

"How could I not attend such an important day?" Mr. Higashida said affectionately with tears in his eyes.

Hearing this, Takagi Shigeru and Sato Miwako looked at each other.

Mr. Dongtian thought they didn't believe him, so he continued to explain, "Everything I said is true. If you go to where I live, you can find a letter from my daughter and a plane ticket she sent me."

Xingchen looked at them and fell into deep thought. If what this man said was true, the real murderer might be someone else.

Because it is impossible for someone who is preparing to attend an important party to kill someone before that.
