Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 1614 Investigation by Two Police Officers

Officer Takagi looked at the hotel in front of him with a slightly embarrassed expression, and couldn't help but whisper: "Officer Sato, I always feel like someone is staring at us. It's so scary..."

"This is not your illusion." Officer Sato replied with a natural smile, but his voice was extremely serious: "I have just discovered at least two suspicious characters."

"Huh?" Officer Takagi was immediately startled.

"Watch your expression! Don't expose it!" Sato reminded quickly.

"Oh!" Takagi reacted after hearing this and quickly adjusted his expression.

The two continued to communicate as they walked, and Officer Sato continued: "There were two guys looking around, looking at the people around them with obvious scrutiny. I only see this kind of look on colleagues who are investigating suspects and criminals who are selecting targets." Pass."

Officer Takagi swallowed: "Then have we been discovered?"

"No." Officer Sato shook his head slightly: "We are not the only ones entering and leaving the hotel, but we still need to be careful later."

"I understand." Officer Takagi nodded quickly.

"Then cheer up!" Officer Sato held Takagi's arm tightly and leaned closer.

"Uh!" Feeling the touch on his arm, Officer Takagi's face suddenly turned red.

Although the relationship had been confirmed for quite some time, Takagi still felt blushing and heartbeat at some of the common physical contacts between normal lovers.

Seeing Takagi's reaction, Officer Sato's lips curved slightly. This guy is still so cute... He shouldn't be suspected now, right?

Officer Takagi didn't know what Officer Sato was thinking at this time. He was led into the Cupido Hotel by Officer Sato in a state of confusion.

The two came to the front desk, and the waiter immediately showed a professional smile: "Hello, may I ask if you have reservations for meals or accommodation?"

"Hello, is Mr. Keiya here? We are his friends and we have something to ask him about." Officer Sato smiled.

"Ah! Are you looking for our general manager? Wait a moment, I..."

"No need." Before the waiter finished speaking, a cheerful male voice sounded.

Several people turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man with a slightly stout figure walking over quickly.

The man smiled warmly at the two Satos: "It's been a long time, you two. Come on, please come with me. Let's go to my office to talk."

After Sato and Takagi looked at each other, Officer Sato nodded slightly: "Then I'll excuse you."

Not long after, the two followed the general manager to an office.

Officer Sato closed the door of the office smoothly, and several people sat down respectively.

General Manager Keiya chuckled: "Your superior has already greeted me. I will notify the people in the security department to hold a temporary meeting later. The two police officers can go to the monitoring room to check the surveillance."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Keiya." Officer Sato thanked him.

Keiya waved his hand: "You're welcome. As Tokyo citizens, it is our duty to cooperate with the police. The two police officers can just do what they want."

Officer Sato understood that the other party was seeing off a guest, and immediately stood up: "Then let's take our leave first. Thank you again for your help."

Afterwards, the two left the office and headed towards the monitoring room.

In the monitoring room.

"Let's start watching an hour ago." Officer Sato said.

Officer Sato was a little helpless in choosing this time period. Originally, he should have moved the time earlier to be on the safe side, but the screening time would have been too long.

The other party's possible deal didn't know when it would end, so Officer Sato could only do the next best thing.

But based on her experience, she should be able to find something within an hour.

So the two police officers began to check the surveillance.

Officer Sato soon made a discovery: "Takagi, look at this man!"

"What's wrong?" Officer Takagi came over.

Officer Sato pointed at a man on the surveillance camera: "This man appeared in the lobby twice. The first time he pulled a large suitcase up, but he came down soon. By this time, the suitcase in his hand was gone."

"After a while, he hurried upstairs again, and shortly after he went up, several more people followed him."

Officer Sato said, adjusting the surveillance to that picture, pointing at the people who appeared in the picture: "There is nothing suspicious about the clothes of these people, but their behavior is obviously not ordinary people."

As she spoke, she called up the monitor facing the elevator.

During the surveillance, the group of people regarded as suspicious by Officer Sato got into the elevator with three other guests.

Officer Sato zoomed in and carefully observed the changes in the number of floors on the elevator display.

"Fourth floor, seventh floor, eleventh floor..." Officer Sato muttered, and then pulled the surveillance camera back to the scene where he first saw the man holding the suitcase, and observed the changes in the elevator floors.

Soon, Officer Sato came to the conclusion: "Their destination is probably the 11th floor!"

"Then do we want to go up and take a look now?" Officer Takagi asked.

Officer Sato immediately shook his head: "No, if we go up directly like this, we might alert the enemy."

"Now that we know the floor, we can ask the front desk and maybe we can get some information."

"Oh! That's it!" Officer Takagi suddenly realized.

Just as they said, the two left the monitoring room and returned to the lobby, where they chatted with the front desk again.

"Guests who recently stayed on the 11th floor... someone did check in to room 1103 this morning, and just now, another gentleman checked into rooms 1101 and 1105," the waiter replied.

"Did anything strange happen on the 11th floor during this period?" Officer Sato asked.

"Well... I haven't heard of it, but something happened on the 10th floor," the waiter replied.

"What's the situation?" Officer Sato asked quickly.

"Some guests reported hearing the sound of breaking glass. We asked people to go up to check and found a big hole in the window glass of a room on the 10th floor. But strangely, no guests were staying in that room."

The two police officers looked at each other and instantly understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

There is definitely a problem!

Officer Sato rolled his eyes and said, "Please help us get a room on the 10th floor."

"Of course, no problem. What kind of room do you need? There is a couple's suite left on the 10th floor." The waiter enthusiastically recommended.

"No, just a regular double room." Officer Sato replied.

"OK."

The waiter quickly completed the check-in and handed the room card to Officer Sato.

The two of them didn't stop any longer and took the elevator straight to the 10th floor.

Not long after, the elevator door on the 10th floor opened, and the two of them walked out holding hands, looking like a sweet couple.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the elevator, Officer Sato felt his gaze keenly.

She remained calm and continued walking toward the corridor with Officer Takagi, only glancing in the direction they came from with her peripheral vision when turning a corner.

Soon, she found a retracted head at the entrance of the safety staircase.
