Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 127 Split the Reluctance into Two

Seeing this, Makino and others on the side blinked their eyes, as if they did not expect to see such a scene.

The next moment, Makino looked at Nagato Nobuko with a puzzled look.

Did he remember it wrong?

There were actually two victims in this case?

Is this Nagato Nobuko also one of the victims?

Even if this Nagato Nobuko was not the victim in this case, given her personality, it would be difficult for her to have a good ending in the world of science.

How dare he be so arrogant in front of the three Death Gods...

Ms. Nagato Nobuko, I notice that your forehead seems to be a little dark.

The next second, Secretary Hyuga, who was lying on the bed, found that the pen in his pocket had fallen on the bed, and he quickly reached out to get it.

After getting the pen, she held it carefully in her arms.

Seeing this, Nagato Nobuko continued to mock: "Why are you still holding that dirty pen? I don't care if it's your father's relic, it makes me feel sick just looking at it!"

At this point, Nagato Nobuko turned her head and looked at her sister behind her: "Kan Jiang, if you are not careful, your most important light will be snatched away by such a shameless woman~"

The next second, Nagato Nobuko turned around and left the bedroom.

The younger sister, Nagato Yasue, quickly chased after her: "Sister!!"

Seeing this scene, Xiaolan on the side looked in the direction where the Nagato sisters left with a complicated expression.

The others silently looked at Secretary Hinata who had just struggled to get up from the bed, with a hint of sympathy in their eyes.

Nagato Michizo, who was lying on the bed, calmed himself down and looked at Secretary Hyuga awkwardly: "I'm so sorry, Miss Hyuga! Nobuko is a little anxious because no one has come to propose marriage to her at such an age..."

After saying this, he subconsciously glanced at the pen pinned to Hinata's secretary's collar, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

No wonder I keep thinking about that person recently...

Hearing this, Makino and the others on the side blinked helplessly.

With the kind of character that Nagato Nobuko has revealed, who would dare to propose marriage to her?
Maybe living alone until the end of her life is a dream for her, and it is probably only a matter of time before someone like her meets Xiao Hei.

Secretary Hyuga glanced at President Nagato on the bed and nodded, "Don't worry, I know. Then I'll go back to the company to deal with things."

Nagato Michisan hesitated and said, "Okay... By the way, Miss Hinata, I plan to announce the matter to everyone tonight. If you still sympathize with my son..."

"My feeling towards him has never been sympathy. This is the fate between him and me. We have been bound together by the bond of fire for a long time." Secretary Hyuga turned around and looked at Nagato Dosan, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Everyone present listened to the conversation between the two in confusion, and no one fully understood the deeper meaning of their words.

As soon as Secretary Hinata walked out, Makino found an excuse, said goodbye to President Nagato and other people present, and walked out of the bedroom.

Seeing Makino suddenly leave, Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at each other and followed quietly.

Hattori Heizo glanced at the three people who had left the bedroom, and without saying much, he started chatting with Nagato Michizo and Mori Kogoro.

……

In the courtyard.

Makino called out to Secretary Hyuga who was about to leave and said, "Ms. Hyuga, can I talk to you for a moment?"

"Hmm? What do you want?" Secretary Hyuga turned to look at Makino and blinked in confusion.

Although today was her first time meeting Makino, she always felt that he looked strangely familiar.

The next moment, Makino took out his police ID from his jacket pocket and showed it to Secretary Hinata: "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself just now. I am Inspector Makino of the Metropolitan Police Department." Secretary Hinata: "!"

After seeing Makino's police officer ID, Secretary Hinata finally understood why she felt Makino looked familiar. She had seen this police officer in newspapers and on TV before!

"The Metropolitan Police Department's destruction..."

Before Secretary Hinata could finish her words, Makino immediately coughed lightly, interrupting her spell.

Although so much time has passed, he is still not used to hearing others call him by his nickname, and always feels a little ashamed.

Makino glanced at the two figures, one large and one small, behind him and spoke again, "Ms. Hinata, let me be frank. The running sound that President Nagato heard late at night should be related to you, right?"

Secretary Hinata: "!!!"

After hearing what Makino said, Secretary Hinata's pupils widened instantly.

At this moment, her brain was working rapidly, constantly thinking about how to respond to Makino's sudden questioning and suspicion: "Officer Makino, what are you talking about? The sound of running?"

Makino did not answer this question. Instead, he looked at the pond beside him and said, "There seem to be a lot of traces of digging on the ground around the pond. That should have been dug for planting trees, right?"

"Yes, do you have any questions?" Although she didn't know why the other party suddenly changed the subject, Secretary Hinata still tried to remain calm.

"If that's the case, then if I have someone dig there now, I don't think we'll find anything 'special', right?"

Hearing this, Secretary Hyuga, who was about to continue to talk to Makino, was stunned on the spot.

She seemed to have all her strength drained away and leaned weakly against the wall.

After a long time, Secretary Hyuga said in a dry tone: "How...how did you know?"

Makino shook his head and said, "I was just guessing, but judging from your expression, I seem to be right."

"Just a guess..." Secretary Hinata looked down at the pen on his chest with a lonely expression.

She knew that her plan had completely failed since Officer Makino had discovered the body buried deep in the soil.

This is a crucial "prerequisite" if she wants to realize her murder plan.

……

At the same time, inside the mansion.

After eavesdropping on the conversation between Makino and Hinata's secretary, Conan and Hattori Heiji looked at each other in confusion.

Although Officer Makino and Secretary Hinata spoke simple words, they didn't understand their conversation at all.

Secretary Hyuga was the one who made that sound?

What is her purpose?
What's special about the soil around the pool?

Judging from the tone of Hinata's secretary, Officer Makino seems to have known something...

Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji and Conan subconsciously clenched their fists.

For them, this "feeling of being outside the mosquito net" that others have already known something ahead of time, while they are still kept in the dark, is even more uncomfortable than having their reasoning go wrong.

Conan looked up at Hattori Heiji, who looked unwilling and confused, pursed his lips, and a brief smile flashed in his eyes.

I guess Hattori must be very unwilling now!

It was always like this before. Before he could understand the current situation, Officer Makino had already solved the case inexplicably.

Now finally someone can experience and understand how he felt at that time!
Thinking of this, Conan's resentment was immediately alleviated a little.
