Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

"Actually, I am..." Takagi Shigeru was about to take out his police officer ID to prove his identity when he suddenly remembered Sato Miwako's instructions.

"We just came here to play the game of police catching thieves and accidentally walked in here." Xingchen stepped forward and said quickly.

"This uncle is our friend's parent, and he came to see us." Huibara Ai said lightly.

"Yes, yes. That's it." Takagi Shigeru looked at the two of them with gratitude and said while touching his head.

"Really? Take the kids down quickly. Don't barge in next time. Got you?" the worker said, waving his hand.

"Okay, okay. We'll go down right away." Takagi Shigeru nodded in response.

The time came to 7:30 in the evening.

Several people came downstairs to the art gallery.

"Just in case, I'll go buy a hat and sunglasses first." Takagi Shigeru saw a convenience store across the street and walked straight towards it.

Several people looked at each other and followed in. Conan thought about the case he would investigate later, so he bought gloves for everyone with his own money.

"Why don't you guys go back first and leave the rest to me." After coming back, Takagi Wataru looked at the little ones and said with some concern.

"Can you do it?" Mitsuhiko looked at Takagi Wataru in confusion.

"Yeah, Officer Takagi always looks confused." Xingchen nodded in response.

Every word the two said pierced Takagi Shigeru's heart, causing the corners of Takagi Shigeru's mouth to twitch and he thought to himself, I'm really sorry for always being confused.

"That's right, how can a case like this be without a professional young detective team like us? Tell me, is it Conan?" Genta said with his hands on his hips.

"Yes, yes." Conan looked at Genta's expression and nodded, responding awkwardly.

Apart from him, Xingchen and Huihara Ai, there are probably few professionals among the others.

According to Takagi Wataru's recollection, they came to the izakaya where Uncle Higashida was drinking.

A police car drove past them and they quickly hid in the alley across the street.

"But why are there so many police officers patrolling outside, Officer Takagi?" Xingchen turned and looked at Takagi Wataru and asked. They had encountered patrolling police officers of all sizes along the way.

I managed to avoid danger every time.

"They are also looking for suspects, and I also have Officer Sato." Takagi Shigeru said in a low voice, pointing at himself.

"But this is the fifth police car. Before this, we encountered several patrolmen on bicycles." Huihara Ai was confused because these were too many.

"Did something happen?" Yuan Tai guessed.

"I've already said it, they are just looking for the suspect, and I also have Officer Sato." Takagi Shigeru repeated.

"But, this is too much police force," Conan murmured.

"Officer Takagi, you look like a gangster now." Ayumi looked up at Takagi Wataru and said.

"What can I do? I have to investigate the case secretly now." Takagi Shigeru said helplessly, covering his hat.

"Anyway, let's stop here." Conan put his hands in his pockets, looked sideways at the entrance of the tavern and said, "The place where Mr. Higashida stayed before the incident was that tavern, right?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go straight in. If we stay here any longer, the police car will come to this place again." Xingchen said, pointing at the entrance of the tavern.

"Yeah." Everyone responded.

The group looked around and confirmed that there were no police officers nearby.

They went into the pub and found the pub's madam, a amiable middle-aged lady.

After showing his ID, Takagi Shigeru asked Mr. Higashida about the relevant matters.

For example, is he very drunk here?

The mama-san at the bar nodded and said, "Yes, he was very drunk that day. He also said that he would definitely teach her a lesson today."

"However, I didn't expect Dongtian to do such a thing."

"So did he leave here alone later?" Conan asked.

"Mr. Kitagawa, who was drinking with him, supported him, and the two of them went back together." Mama-san answered with an affirmative tone.

"It's confirmed that two people went back together." Xingchen confirmed again.

"Yes, I'm not wrong about this." Mama-san nodded in confirmation.

"Look, he's right there." Mama-san shook her head slightly, and everyone followed her gaze. They saw an old man in green clothes sitting on a chair, reading a newspaper intently, with a cigarette between his fingers.

Mama-san continued, "He and Mr. Higashida are colleagues in the same company."

"That's him, Mr. Kitagawa was the first person to discover the body." said Takagi Wataru.

"The first person to discover the body." Conan muttered.

"Yes."

"The day after the incident, because Mr. Higashida and Ms. Muranishi did not come to the company, he asked the administrator to open the room, and the body was found at that time." Takagi Shigeru looked at the small notebook in his hand and explained in detail.

"..There is a lot of room for maneuver here." Xingchen murmured. If this person sent Mr. Dongtian back to his room, it is also possible that Miss Muranishi had been killed and deliberately placed in Mr. Dongtian's room.

Mr. Higashida was so drunk at the time that there was no way he could have discovered Miss Muranishi's body.

"Do you think he is the murderer?" Huihara Ai looked sideways at Xingchen and said.

"Not necessarily. We can't draw a conclusion yet. But I think he is a suspect. Let's wait and see." Xingchen put his hand on his chin and looked up at Mr. Beichuan.

The next moment, Mr. Kitagawa stood up with the newspaper in his hand.

The sound of the chair moving attracted the attention of Conan and Takagi Wataru.

He put the money on the receipt and said as he passed by Mama-san, "I left the money on the table."

"Thank you, come again next time." Mama-san said with a compassionate look on her face.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Kitagawa." When Takagi Shigeru saw Mr. Kitagawa preparing to leave, he hurriedly shouted.

But Mr. Kitagawa didn't seem to hear his shout, so Takagi quickly chased after him and said, "I'm a policeman, and I want to ask you two or three questions."

Xingchen and others watched as Gao Mushi chased after him.

Conan saw a report about football on the newspaper placed on Mr. Kitagawa's seat.

"By the way, Auntie. Does Miss Muranishi have anything she likes?" Conan asked.

"Yes, for example, she likes beige things very much. Not only that, she also likes cacti very much." Mama-san replied with a kind smile on her face.

"So what does Mr. Dongtian like?" Xingchen asked curiously.

"Well, it seems to be related to the video equipment."

"When he talks about things like video recorders, he will talk to us nonstop. Although we can't understand him, he seems very powerful."

"But he hates taking a shower. Miss Muranishi said that he always smells of alcohol when he comes to work drunk." The mama-san knows the regular customers in the store very well, and her words are full of intimacy.

"By the way, they all like football." Mama-san said after thinking for a while.
