Conan: Chief of Rice Flower's Science Points

Chapter 227 "Cunning"

At 12pm on December 26, Shiraishi and Matsumoto returned to the Beika Police Station, only to see...

"Huh? Why did Achuan protect the division just leave?"

Shiraishi saw Achuan leaving in a hurry in the corridor of the Criminal Division, and couldn't help but ask Huitani casually.

"Protection Division... She is worried about Shanchuan and wants to find evidence to prove his innocence." Huitani said nonchalantly.

In Huigu's opinion, Shanchuan is a liar who is full of lies and has no innocence at all!
After Yamakawa Akira was taken to the police station in the afternoon, Haidani first took him to identify the scene, but found that there were no marks at all where Yamakawa testified that he was beaten...

He kept saying that he was beaten to the ground, but there was no trace of it at the scene. This is obviously a contradiction.

And when he looked at the steps where the crime happened...

Detective Huigu's intuition told him that this guy was very panicked!

Now Shanchuan has been detained in the police station and may not be able to leave until tomorrow morning.

However, Achuan believed what Shanchuan said and did not want Shanchuan's hard-earned job opportunity to be affected, so he said he would find evidence himself...

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi made another trip to the interrogation room - Akasaka was still interrogating Yamakawa, who looked very devastated, but just refused to tell the truth... just like five years ago!
"I don't know... I was indeed knocked to the ground, and the clothes I handed in were also dirty, weren't they?" Shanchuan looked panicked and stupid at this time.

"You...are you kidding me?" Akasaka looked like he was about to get angry.

This time, Bai Shi listened outside and finally found something wrong.

Is it...

dong dong——

Hearing a knock on the door, Akasaka turned his head and saw the director coming in.

"Director." Akasaka stood up quickly.

And Bai Shi looked directly at Shanchuan and said, "How did you meet Nihube last night? And...why did he come to you? You'd better tell me the truth. Otherwise, in order to find evidence for you, the Achuan Protection Division may put himself in danger!"

"Eh? I..." Yamakawa was surprised when he heard that - Achuan Protection Division? Danger?
"Last night... it was Brother Erhubu who drove to the temple fair to find me, and then took me to the Green Park..." Shanchuan gritted his teeth and said honestly.

"And then? The Second Household Department wouldn't be so proactive just to lend you money, right?" Bai Shi asked with a stern face.

After a short silence, Yamakawa said, "No... Actually... Nihubu is asking me about... what happened back then."

"What happened back then? What does that mean?" Bai Shi became more serious.

Matsumoto outside also immediately noticed.

"I don't know..." Yamakawa's face was tangled at this time, but before Shiraishi could attack him again, he had already said: "I don't know why big brother suddenly asked, but... Manshima Sakura actually survived back then!"

"Alive?" Shiraishi was stunned when he heard that, and Matsumoto outside had the same expression.

"That's right. At that time, Manshima Sakura... must have fainted. Da... Nihube also thought she was dead, so he asked me to dispose of her body in the Beika Forest. However... when I was digging the hole, she suddenly woke up." Yamakawa told the truth that he had not dared to reveal back then.

"Awake? What happened next?" Bai Shi asked immediately.

"After that... I wanted to take action... but she begged me and said... she was pregnant, and she said she would leave, and begged me to let her go... so I..." Yamakawa told the truth for the first time in five years.

Although he still had doubts, Bai Shi basically believed his words, except...

"You're just going to let her go like that?" Bai Shi confirmed with a strange look on his face.

Shanchuan was silent for a while, then he said, "As you know, I was in prison once before, for only a little over a year, when I followed the Second Household Department... Actually, I just got out of prison not long ago."

Bai Shi did know this, which is why he said he was a second-time prisoner, because not long after being imprisoned for theft, he joined a violent organization and dared to dump the body of his "big brother"!

"My girlfriend was pregnant before. Because I went to prison, her life was difficult and she couldn't keep the baby in her belly... I only found out about this when I was released from prison, and she didn't want to see me again... So... when I found out that Mandao was pregnant, I was stunned..." Yamakawa said with emotion.

Bai Shi now understood why he looked so cowardly but refused to speak - he was indeed cowardly, but... he was afraid that if he told the truth, Nihubu would be the first to kill him when he got out!

At that time, the "Dongdu Violence Expulsion Regulations" had just begun to be implemented. In this situation, the probability of the mountains and rivers being "sunk" was indeed very high. In comparison, going to prison was safe.

The problem is that if this is said, Yamakawa's "meritorious service" is too obvious, and as an accomplice, he probably won't have to go to jail...

Therefore, although Yamakawa was extremely scared at the time, it was precisely because of fear that he was able to grit his teeth - at that time, for people like Yamakawa Akira, the deterrent power of violent organizations was indeed much greater than that of the police.

"What about Mandao?" Bai Shi continued to ask.

"I don't know, I haven't seen her again, but... if you haven't found her, then... she should still be alive." Shanchuan shook his head repeatedly. Shanchuan had been determined not to reveal the truth before, mostly for himself, but also for Manshima Sakura.

Mandao Ying, who escaped death, dared not show up again, and even dared not contact Fuman again.

After all, Fuman is just an ordinary person. If he is involved in such a thing, he will really die...

As for whether we can cooperate with the police in one go and arrest Erhubu?

Yamakawa Akira didn't even dare to think about such a thing - not only did it not make sense in terms of "benevolence and righteousness", it was also very difficult to do!
That was when the "Violent Expulsion Ordinance" was just introduced, and Shiraishi police cars were bombed twice. The violent organizations at that time were far more dangerous than they are now.

Even now, the guys like the "Sakaki Group" were able to survive after being captured by Shiraishi twice, leaving only a lot of militant cadres and team members in jail, and the core cadres had no crime to arrest...

How could the violent organizations in Dongdu five years ago be eradicated so easily? Even Bai Shi didn't dare to make such a guarantee!

Therefore, Yamakawa Akira remained silent, and Mandao Sakura also left...

But for Nihube Tsuyoshi, why did he suddenly remember this incident four or five years later and got so excited that he beat up Yamakawa Akira?
"It must have been April 2012, right? If Manshima Sakura was pregnant at the time..." Shiraishi calculated the days and thought that if Manshima Sakura was lucky and didn't have a miscarriage, the child should be four years old now.

Combined with the previous movements of the Second Household Department...

Just then, there was another knock on the door, but this time no one came in directly, but it was Ryuichi Kanzaki, who seemed to have something to say to the director after opening the door.

Seeing this, Bai Shi came out to read his report...

"Director, the comparison results are out... The seasoned egg liquid on the deceased's hands and the egg liquid for the takoyaki on Yamakawa's clothes... are not made with the same recipe, and each has ingredients that the other does not have, and they are not processed products." Ryuichi Kanzaki had just worked overtime in the forensic team to come up with the forensic results.

"Ah!" Aoki suddenly exclaimed.

After Shiraishi looked over, Aoki quickly said, "By the way, Director, when we were at the Nihube family before..."

……

At 10 pm, on the steps of the embankment near the east gate of Dixiangjinchuan Green Park...

There was no one in the park at this time.

It was a cold day and it was so late. It wasn't Christmas or Christmas Eve, but just an ordinary weekday. The park was very quiet at night - especially tonight. After all, a murder had just happened. Even in Mihua, it would be deserted for two or three days.

But it’s only “two or three days”, after all…if there are dead people everywhere, it means there are no dead people anywhere!

Just like the aquarium, they only closed one area on the day of the murder and reopened as normal the next day.

At this time, Kayo Agawa turned on the light of her mobile phone and searched for evidence nearby.

Finally, it seems that something has been discovered...

"This is... great!" Here, Kayo Agawa found a piece of fallen bushes, which matched Yamakawa's description of being beaten up and even pinned to the ground...

but……

"How come the police didn't notice it before?" Kayo Agawa was a little puzzled at this time - the traces looked very obvious!

Then Kayo Agawa looked towards the stairs again - the police officers said that this is where she fell, right?
Ah Chuan was becoming more and more confused at this point. In her impression, the case had not been solved yet, and the body was only found this morning... shouldn't the area be cordoned off with a cordon?
But now there is no...

Ah Chuan then came to the steps to check, but unfortunately she was not professional - the traces of being beaten and rolling on the ground were easy to find, but the traces of slipping were not so easy to identify.

However, Achuan still wanted to find the police as soon as possible and took pictures of the "traces of fighting".

It is said that in Beika-cho, even if a murder occurs in a public place, at most the popularity of the place will be affected on that day...Achuan is also afraid that there will be no trace of the murder here tomorrow.

And if Yamakawa cannot be released tonight, tomorrow... he may lose his job - Takigawa Foods will not keep a criminal with a criminal record who is "arrested" by the police, no matter what the reason, and will not verify whether it is "cooperating with the investigation" or "arrest."

But just as Achuan was making the call, several dark shadows slowly approached behind her!
fortunately……

At this time, the sound of an engine could be heard faintly. Ah Chuan turned his head and saw the "little blacks".

"Ah!" Achuan couldn't help but scream.

The next moment, the sound of the engine was getting closer and closer. Before the dark shadows could take action, they saw several police cars driving directly towards them, including the direction of the steps, and several police officers also ran over from below.

As soon as the high-powered searchlight was shone, several dark figures wearing black suits and sunglasses immediately calmed down!
