Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 130 The Two Cheating All Night

Seeing that Makino and the other man hadn't mentioned the case yet, Conan couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer and asked directly, "Brother Heiji, what is the case you are talking about?"

Hearing Conan's deliberate "cute voice", Hattori Heiji shuddered in disgust and looked at Conan in front of him with contempt.

But the next moment, Hattori Heiji began to tell Conan and the others about the serial murder case that occurred in Osaka eight years ago.

After hearing the deal reached between Osaka's Inspector Nakamura and the criminal, Conan and the others fell silent.

Especially Kogoro Mouri, his expression was very heavy.

As a former police officer, he could imagine how painful and conflicted Officer Nakamura felt when he agreed to the criminal's request.

Maori Kogoro glanced at Hattori Heiji through the rearview mirror: "Since this case happened eight years ago, could the criminal have fled to hide somewhere else? What if he never shows up again?"

Hattori Heiji frowned and said, "It is indeed possible, but in the past few years, Inspector Nakamura has been secretly investigating the previous case. Although he has not found any clues about the criminal, he seems to have a deep understanding of the criminal's character. He believes that the criminal will definitely commit crimes again."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mori fell silent again.

Indeed, such prisoners cannot be treated with common sense.

Conan on the side also used his brain and thought carefully.

According to Hattori Heiji, Superintendent Nakamura seems to have officially retired today, and the criminal who learned the news will most likely start committing crimes again.

But at present, they don’t even know the criminal’s age and appearance. The only clue confirmed by the Osaka Prefectural Police is that the criminal is a male.

Therefore, the Osaka Prefectural Police had no way to stop the criminal before he committed the crime again using the same method.

……

In the evening, at the Maori Detective Agency.

After seeing Makino off, Hattori Heiji and Conan took the drunk Mouri Kogoro back to his room.

Only after confirming that Xiaolan was asleep did the two of them quietly slip out of the room and return to the office lobby.

At today's dinner table, the two of them deliberately did not talk about the case, just for this moment.

Hattori Heiji had already sent a message to Inspector Otaki in Osaka in advance, asking for the case information from eight years ago.

After Officer Makino solved the case at lightning speed, Hattori Heiji immediately reached a mutual assistance agreement with Conan.

This time, no matter what means they use, they must find a way to be one step ahead of Muye!
Hattori Heiji handed the phone to Conan: "Kudo, take a look, this is the case information I asked Officer Otaki to help take."

"Is it really okay for you to do this?" Conan complained as he took Hattori Heiji's phone and lowered his head to carefully look at the case files.

Soon after, seeing that Conan had finished reading the information, Hattori Heiji spoke up: "Kudo, Officer Makino must not have read this information yet! Let's compete fairly, and this time we must catch the criminal before him!"

Although this was unfair, in order to regain his confidence as a high school detective in front of Officer Makino, Conan nodded and said, "Hattori, you've read the information, right? What do you think?"

"I think we should start with the case in Yodogawa District. This case seems to be different from the cases that happened before and after it. Maybe we can find clues about the criminal!" Hattori Heiji frowned.

Conan showed a smile as if he had found a confidant, and nodded: "Huh, you found it too~"

Hattori Heiji also smiled: "How about it, Kudo, how about we analyze the case of that year together?"

This was the first time he experienced the feeling of being "kept in the dark".

In today's incident, he was completely an outsider! Apart from following Officer Makino's orders to dig the soil and carrying the unconscious Nagato Guangming upstairs, he played almost no role.

The burning detective heart in him seemed to be extinguished by Officer Makino's pouring a basin of ice water on the spot.

When he still knew nothing, Officer Makino had already realized the truth of the case and successfully prevented the murderer from committing the crime? !
After seeing the flame in Hattori Heiji's eyes, Conan, who was also a "victim", immediately understood what Hattori Heiji was thinking at the moment.

After two seconds of silence, Conan nodded heavily and said, "Okay! We must solve the puzzle in advance this time and catch the criminal!"

……

The next morning, at the Maori Detective Agency.

After a good sleep, Xiaolan stretched and slowly got up.

She made an appointment with Conan and Hattori Heiji yesterday to go around Tokyo together today.

After a simple wash, Xiaolan walked into the office lobby.

Kogoro Mouri, who was slumped on the sofa, suddenly appeared in her sight.

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri covered his head with one hand, struggled to pick up the remote control on the table with the other hand, and kept changing channels.

Seeing this, Xiaolan didn't know that her father was still in a "hangover" state.

She walked straight to Maori Kogoro and frowned, saying, "Dad! You're still drunk, why are you still watching TV? Go back to your room and continue to rest..."

"No, no! Miss Yoko's concert will be rebroadcast soon, and I missed it yesterday... I must watch it today!" Kogoro Mouri raised his blue and purple face and looked at Xiaolan beside him with a distracted look.

Xiaolan: "..."

Just as Xiaolan was about to drag her father away by force, the door of the office was opened.

Conan and Hattori Heiji, both looking exhausted, dragged their heavy bodies into the office.

After seeing the state of the two and the thick dark circles around their eyes, Xiaolan was immediately surprised and asked: "Ah! What happened to you two? What happened last night?"

Hattori Heiji and Conan waved their hands helplessly and said in unison: "We just didn't sleep well..."

"Really?" Xiaolan looked at Conan and the others suspiciously, then turned her head to look at Kogoro Mouri lying on the sofa. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little tired.

The next moment, Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other helplessly.

They had been discussing the case last night, listing many possible scenarios.

When they thought it was time to go to bed, they found that it was already daybreak, and then they realized that they had actually chatted all night...

——"Early this morning, a drunk office worker found a dead person on the roadside in Higashinari District, Osaka. Next to the dead person was a red Tengu painted in blood. It is reported that a similar case seemed to have occurred many years ago. Currently, the Osaka police are investigating..."

At this moment, the news broadcast on TV immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

After seeing the news on TV, Conan and Hattori Heiji, who originally looked tired, ran to the TV quickly with their eyes wide open as if they were given an injection of chicken blood.

Kogoro Mouri, who had been slumped on the sofa, sat up straight and began to watch the news seriously.
