My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 153 Mouri Kogoro’s voice trembles

Most of the adult world is gray, so if you are not careful, you will be dragged into the darkness, and you will never be able to get rid of it.

No, the next day was supposed to be the weekend, but in the afternoon, Aokisong received a call from the Metropolitan Police Department. There was a very urgent case that Aokisong needed to handle.

He didn't say anything on the phone, but Aoki Song could tell the seriousness of the matter and quickly drove to the scene of the incident and arrived at the scene of the incident.

When I asked, it turned out that the incident was somewhat serious - when the leader of the search section four, Katsutoshi Teraoka, had a dispute with a member of a black society in private, the other party pulled out a pistol, and during the fight, the two

Katsutoshi Teraoka killed the opponent.

The Fourth Investigation Section is mainly responsible for violent gangs and organized crime, and the most common of these two types of criminals is the Black Society.

Neon Black is a legal organization, but you will still be caught if you do illegal things.

After decades of development, no large-scale black club in Neon now engages in things like collecting protection fees, robbery, and theft, because the money from these sources is unstable, and not to mention breaking the law, there is a ceiling.

The money that can be collected in a year to defraud, kidnap, and rob is just there. It's not much, 10 million yen is a lot.

Therefore, large-scale black clubs are engaged in "legitimate" business, such as discovering countless teachers to make love action movies that will enlighten the majority of teenagers.

You must know that the ceiling of this industry is US$70 billion, and it is completely legal. Isn’t it better to make money than cheating?

But Heisehui is Heisehui. Some traditions have not been lost. They just go to the streets to rob large businesses. Nowadays, they no longer do it. However, security guards are still needed to look after various industries, and they are all over the city.

Therefore, veterans who have been in the Metropolitan Police Department for a long time, especially those police officers on the front line, are more or less acquainted with people who are mixed up in society.

Don't think wrongly, it's not all transactions, there are also the ones where thieves are often caught. They are caught several times a year. As time goes by, everyone will naturally know each other.

But there are indeed some private transactions, commonly known as "informants". These people are really useful when looking for clues in certain cases.

As the saying goes, if you have a short mouth and a short hand, you will become acquaintances after a few contacts with each other. If you do something trivial, you will turn a blind eye to the other person.

This kind of thing is considered an unwritten rule of the Metropolitan Police, and it is the same in every country.

Especially in beautiful countries, if you don't use this trick in those slums, you won't be able to find clues to the case at all, because the other party will subconsciously reject you and deliberately not tell you.

As the team leader of the Fourth Investigation Section, no one in the Metropolitan Police Department would believe it, except for the young rookie who had just joined the job.

Then this is the problem of this case - the person who died was an informant of Katsutoshi Teraoka. So if the other party died, was it an accident, or was Katsutoshi Teraoka intentional murder and silenced?

This question is very serious!

If it's an accident, it's okay. If it's the latter... then it's possible that a demon was released.

After all, as long as you kill the first person without being discovered, when you encounter difficulties again, that person will definitely choose to do it again. After all, the first person was not discovered, and since he was not discovered the first time,

Then the second time, the third time... it will definitely not be discovered.

If this person is still in a high position, it will be even more terrifying.

And the reality is - such a terrible thing has really happened.

Because Aoki Song remembers this case!

This can be regarded as the second crime committed by a police officer in "Detective Conan".

Well, Mouri Kogoro is a bit pitiful. The first one is his classmate, and the second one is his senior.

There will be his colleagues and students in the future.

Anyway, the person who appears suddenly and is related to Mouri Kogoro, unless it is a long-term supporting role like Okino Yoko, is very likely to be the murderer.

Don't ask why, just ask!

This case involves the leader of the search section 4, so even if Aoki Song clearly knows that the other party is the murderer, he cannot reveal the matter immediately. He must follow the rules and case handling steps step by step.

This is not because he is afraid that Katsutoshi Teraoka will get away with it. After all, the evidence in this case is irrefutable and can be hammered to death.

But he was afraid that other criminals would have objections to Aoki Song. After all, we are all criminals, and it stands to reason that we should trust each other. As a result, when Aoki Song came up, he said that Teraoka Katsutoshi was the murderer. Even if he was right, he would be hated by others.

.

Aoki Song walked to the Megure Police Department. At this moment, the Megure Police Department was holding a small book and looking at Teraoka Katsutoshi with a serious face and asked: "So, just when you were trying to persuade Matsuyama to surrender, Matsuyama suddenly

He pulled out the pistol and forced you to hand over your cash and credit card to him, right?"

"Yes!" Teraoka Katsutoshi responded: "It seems that he had planned to fly away from the beginning." As he said this, he glanced to the side. A criminal was searching the luggage bag brought by the deceased Matsuyama. From this angle

You can roughly see a few pieces of clothing inside.

Teraoka Katsutoshi withdrew his gaze and said to the Megure Police Department and Aoki Matsuyoshi: "I told him that even if he did this, he would not be able to escape the punishment of the law, so he had to have a good talk with me. Then I raised my hands and slowly

Approach him slowly to let him relax his guard, and then look for an opportunity to pounce on him."

Saying this, Teraoka Katsutoshi's tone became a little sad, "Just when I tried to grab his pistol, the pistol suddenly went off..." After a pause, Teraoka Katsutoshi said again: "Wait until Matsuyama falls.

When he was on the ground, Maoli and the others also ran over and then called the police."

When Mouri Kogoro heard this, he immediately said with some excitement: "This was an accident, an accident, a sudden fire. Megure Police Department, this is completely an unfortunate accident."

The Megure Police Department still has some professional ethics. They did not immediately judge that this incident was an accident just because Katsutoshi Teraoka was a colleague and Kogoro Mori was a friend. Instead, they looked at Katsutoshi Teraoka and continued to ask: "Who was the one who was arrested?"

What was the name of the person Matsuyama killed?"

"I don't know his name, Matsuyama said he was a gambling guest." Teraoka Katsutoshi replied.

Megure Police Department then asked: "What kind of relationship do you have with this Matsuyama?"

Mouri Kogoro was shocked when he heard this. He quickly turned to look at the Megure Police Department and said what Teraoka Katsutoshi told him before, "That boy has always wanted to quit. He has talked to my senior several times before, so

My senior also trusts him very much, so he went to see him alone."

Hearing this, Katsutoshi Teraoka was afraid to look at Kogoro Mouri and said, "I didn't expect that things were completely different from this." Then Katsutoshi Teraoka lowered his head and said, "I don't want to be like this either. I'm very sad about this."

It looks like "All of this should be considered my responsibility. I was too naive for this to happen."

Hearing what Teraoka Katsutoshi said, Mouri Kogoro, who knew the hidden rules of the Metropolitan Police Department and was unwilling to think the worst of people, looked at Teraoka Katsutoshi with some sadness and said: "Senior..."

Aoki Song, who was watching the other party's performance, said at this time: "Police Department, I want to talk to Detective Maori alone. Is it convenient for you, Detective Maori?"

"Ah!" Several people were stunned.

Then Mouri Kogoro said quickly: "I have no problem."

Megure Police Department knew that Aoki Song would not mess around when handling a case, so he nodded and indicated that he could take Mouri Kogoro to talk far away.

"Detective Maori, please come here." Then, Aokisong looked at Mao Lilan and Conan and said, "Xiaolan and Conan, come too!"

Mao Lilan was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly said: "Okay."

Conan looked at Aoki Song, his eyes flashing slightly. After a series of observations, he had determined that this case was a murder, and the murderer was 90% likely to be Katsutoshi Teraoka!

The reason why it is not 100% is because Conan has not yet found any evidence that can kill the opponent!

Before there is 100% evidence, even if Conan believes that the other party is the murderer, he will not kill him immediately, because if one clue and evidence is wrong, all the previous reasoning will be wrong.

Aoki Song led the Maori trio to the far side, and after making sure that Teraoka Katsutoshi could not hear the sound, he said: "Uncle Maori, the person involved in this case is your senior, and I know your temper.

I never like to think bad of the people I know, especially the people I have feelings for, but some things still have to be realistic. I ask you to answer the question truthfully."

Upon hearing this, Mouri Kogoro immediately showed a serious expression and nodded: "Don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter and I will answer truthfully."

"Teraoka Katsutoshi is your senior, but we have been neighbors for ten years, and I have never heard of any contact between you. How is your relationship? When was the last time we met?" Aoki Song said unceremoniously.

asked.

As soon as these words came out, Mouri Kogoro's face looked a little ugly, and he had a vague feeling in his heart.

But he still had very upright views, so he answered truthfully: "Teraoka Katsutoshi was my senior, two grades ahead of me. He was the senior who took the best care of me at the time. We had a very good relationship. But since I left the police force

Behind the hall, he is busy handling cases, so we have less contact. The last time we met was a few months ago, when he held a birthday party and I went to celebrate."

"Then why are you here with him this time?" Aoki Songqi asked: "It stands to reason that he went to meet his informant and went alone. Although I don't recommend it, it is understandable why he would bring him with him.

You?"

Mouri Kogoro answered without thinking: "I received an invitation from my senior last night, and his family held a barbecue in the backyard today. Later, when he received a call from Matsuyama, the senior was shocked because the other party told the senior that he had killed someone.

He exclaimed in surprise and I heard him.

The other party asked the senior to go alone. I was really worried about the senior, so I came with him. However, in order to prevent the other party from misunderstanding, Xiaolan and I just stayed outside. The senior went in alone. Unexpectedly,

…”

Mouri Kogoro sighed and continued: "I didn't expect something like this to happen. After we heard the gunfire, we ran in immediately and saw Matsuyama already lying on the ground."

Aoki Song narrowed his eyes when he heard this, "Uncle Maori, you are saying that you only received the invitation last night. When was it specifically?"

Mouri Kogoro thought for a moment and said, "It was about nine o'clock, when Conan was taking a bath."

"I only called to invite you at nine o'clock in the evening. Uncle, don't you think it's a bit too coincidental and too purposeful?" Aoki Song said.

Mouri Kogoro's expression changed, and he quickly defended: "Senior, he just suddenly wanted to relax, and it was a last-minute idea."

Qingkisong shook his head and said: "I had an impromptu idea, and I didn't invite the other party until nine o'clock in the evening, and I attended it the next day. This is not in line with the rules of treating guests. What if the other party has something to do today?

Even if the invited person doesn't want to offend him and comes on time to attend, he may not be angry because this is not in line with his desire to relax.

Moreover, I have dealt with people from Section 4 before, and they said that Teraoka Police Department is a person who loves to make plans. Uncle Maori, please don’t act like you are blind on purpose just because of your feelings.”

Mouri Kogoro's expression changed after hearing this, and then he said firmly: "I really don't want my senior to become a murderer, but if he becomes a murderer, I will never protect him. At this point, Mr. Aoki

, you are right, it may be a coincidence, but the senior’s behavior does feel a little wrong.”

Aoki Song heard the words and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. As long as Maori Kogoro cooperates, he is afraid that Maori Kogoro will not cooperate. Even if he gets the information from Maori Lan and Conan, because both of them are underage,

The legal effect is not that great.

"Uncle, can you tell me how Teraoka behaved when you walked into his house?" Aoki Song asked.

After hearing this, Mouri Kogoro looked up at Aoki Song, pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice: "Boy, let me ask you, why do you think the senior is the murderer?"

After all, he also had a criminal background, and he could clearly detect that there was a core behind all Aoki Song's questions, that is - Teraoka Katsutoshi was the murderer.

That's why I asked him everything.

Aoki Song thought for a while and said: "There are two reasons. He and the deceased were the only two people at the scene. The other person is dead, so it is normal to suspect that he killed the other person. The other reason is, I don't know if you have noticed,

The index finger of the deceased's hand holding the gun did not reach the trigger."

Mouri Kogoro was an expert with guns, and his pupils shrank when he heard this.

"If it was like what he said, the other party pointed a gun at him and asked him to hand over his cash and bank card. After the gun went off, and he didn't touch the other party's body, then how could his index finger not be on the trigger.

"Qingmu Song continued.

Mouri Kogoro was vaguely shocked at this time, and said with a trembling voice: "That means that the person who pulled the trigger of the pistol was the senior. It is very likely that Matsuyama did not take out the gun, but

The senior brought me here."
