Conan: Chief of Rice Flower's Science Points

Chapter 264 Arrest
"Director, do you think...the judge did something wrong?" Teng was silent for a while, but couldn't help asking.

Shiraishi did not answer directly, but stated: "Humanity has emerged from the bloody and dark period of revenge and laid the foundation of order and civilization with the law. It is not based on the symbolic goddess of justice, nor on the votes and signatures of cabinet ministers and parliamentarians...

"Instead, everyone gives up some of their own rights and interests and hands over the power of 'revenge' to the law... People use the law to gain redress, compensation, and forgiveness.

“There are many theoretical and moral requirements for the formulation of laws, but only the compromise of everyone is the basis of the law. It is meaningless to talk about the loftiness of morality and the perfection of theory while ignoring the basis of people's belief in the law.

"Just like the case five years ago, if Naruse could be sentenced to death under the criminal law, even though the dead cannot be resurrected, it would be a comfort to Nishizawa...

"But in the end, he was deprived of even this opportunity, and the Supreme Court changed his verdict to not guilty... In this case, if the person he hated the most was the judge, I think it actually shows that he is a person who believes in the law."

It took Fujiya a while to understand the logic of Shiraishi's last statement...

If Nishizawa had no faith in the law at all and wanted to carry out "private justice and revenge", he would definitely have had the opportunity to kill Naruse - although I don't know how he gained Naruse's trust, but since Naruse committed crimes with him, he must have done something behind his back countless times!
Only if he believed in the law would he hate his parents even more, and even want to try it out. What would happen if the victim was the judge's wife or daughter...

……

After the police officers from the Mihua Police Department and even the entire Dongdu mobilized their full strength, they soon found a clue.

The Metropolitan Police Department's Traffic Division checked key road surveillance and found that after the incident, Gao Tang did ride his patrol bicycle towards Jianggutian, and...

Judging from the surveillance footage from more than an hour ago, he was already exhausted!

Although Gaotang often rides a bike, he is not young after all, and the one he is riding now is not an ordinary road bike. More importantly, in his haste, he certainly did not care about the physical exertion and pedaled too hard at the beginning, which made it difficult for him to continue later.

The last time Gao Tang was seen on the surveillance footage was forty minutes ago. At that time, Gao Tang did not look well - probably the criminal must have threatened him, so he had no choice but to use the bicycle.

After checking the surveillance footage, the Ministry of Transportation also exchanged information with the Taiwan Affairs Office...

"Can you determine your parents' approximate location?" Shiraishi asked the traffic department in the office.

"No... He should have entered a small road without surveillance. But we can be sure that he changed direction an hour after leaving Koban. He was no longer heading to Ekoda. We don't know where his destination was."

……

At this time, Fuji drove the car back to Gochome Koban, and then called Kawai to drive the patrol car - there was no one on duty at the Koban, so he could register first.

Anyway, the regional classes will be mobilized soon, and someone will come to take over...

When Kawai heard what Fuji said, he couldn't help but said uncomfortably: "What? Mr. Nishizawa's family has already... When he registered before, he said that his wife was waiting for him to come home."

"This is not the time to talk about this. We need to find Mr. Gaotang as soon as possible... and his wife and daughter." Teng said in a low voice.

in fact……

Fujiya knew that if the other "accomplice", or even the "mastermind", was really Nishizawa, and his purpose was to take revenge on Gaotang...

First, he replicated the "ride home within an hour", but it is absolutely impossible to ride back home on the patrol bicycle, and his purpose should be to make his parents experience despair, so there is this "impossible task".

Two hours have passed now. I'm afraid your wife and daughter... may have been killed!
When Shiraishi heard what Kawai said, he frowned at first, then immediately said: "Wait! He said... his wife was waiting for him to come home? Fuji, immediately find... the address where the mother and daughter of the Nishizawa family were killed when the case happened five years ago!"

"Five years ago... yes!" Teng immediately obeyed.

After a quick search, Fuji immediately said, "Kamurocho! It's an apartment building in Kamurocho... But it's also a rented house, and Nishizawa doesn't live there now."

According to the bicycle anti-theft registration, Nishizawa is currently living in Beika Town...

"Kamurocho? Go there!" Shiraishi said immediately.

"Yes... Director, should we contact other people?" Teng immediately took the order and confirmed.

After a moment of hesitation, Shiraishi said, "Well, notify... everyone in the Beika Agency who is involved in the investigation of the case to go to Kamurocho!"

Shiraishi thought about it and decided that even if he guessed wrong, it didn't matter. After all... all the police officers in Touto were dispatched now. Someone should have already gone to investigate Nishizawa's current address or Naruse's house, so the Beika Police Station wouldn't be a big deal.

……

At 1:30 pm on January 9, police cars and plainclothes police cars from the Beika Police Station rushed to Kamurocho in a mighty manner!
Kamurocho was in chaos for a while, and many violent organizations were facing a formidable enemy. There were even rumors that...

Shiraishi Kuro is furious and wants to bring police officers from the Beika Police Station to wipe them out!
For a while, the Dongcheng Society was also investigating who had offended that madman...

……

At the same time, the detectives led by Inspector Megure have arrived at Jun'ichi Nishizawa's current residence.

But there was no one at home, and...

Takagi found Junichi Nishizawa's passbook at the scene. Judging from the income and expenditure records, Junichi Nishizawa had reached his limit and his deposits were basically emptied.

At times like this, people are indeed more likely to go to extremes!
The reason why Caesar, who doesn't spend money recklessly, spends money so cleanly is, on the one hand, because in the past five years, Caesar quit his original job and only did odd jobs everywhere, and his income dropped sharply. On the other hand, it is also because...

"Inspector Megure! Look here..." Takagi quickly showed the passbook to Megure and said, "Here... this monthly payment seems to be the rent, but... the landlord clearly said that he accepts cash."

"Hmm? Could it be that he rented two houses... Oh no! Go check where the crime took place!" Megure said hurriedly.

That’s right, Caesar has been maintaining the rent payments for his former home.

On the one hand, I was reluctant to destroy the last memories, on the other hand... I couldn't face the fact that I was now alone in my once warm home, so I moved out and rented another small apartment.

But even here, you can see Nishizawa's family portrait...

Apparently, in the past five years, Caesar has reached his limit, both financially and psychologically...

……

At this time, Gao Tang staggered and panted as he climbed up to the sixth floor of the Nishizawa family's original apartment, which didn't even have an elevator.

Arriving at Caesar's house, as soon as Gaotang entered the door, he saw Caesar leaning against the dining table...

"Here we are, Your Excellency the Judge." Caesar said calmly.

"You...it's you? What do you want? Where are Jiko and Meimei?" Gaotang immediately asked.

"Oh, I don't think you recognized me at all..." Caesar saw that until now, Gaotang only recognized that he was the person he bumped into, so he reminded him: "I'll give you a hint... Five years ago, my wife and daughter were killed by a beast here... And he was sentenced to death by the court in the city, but you acquitted him."

Gao Tang paused when he heard this: "You..."

"So you don't remember any of this? You just want to go home and drink bourbon?" Caesar had obviously been staring at him for a long time, and even listened to his radio every day.

"As the Supreme Judge, I feel a lot of pressure from all sides when trying a case... So we have special training to 'forget', otherwise we won't be able to continue working. Bourbon and the like are just self-deprecating jokes on the show..." Gao Tang explained hurriedly.

"No wonder, no wonder. So you don't know that my other accomplice is the one who killed my wife and daughter?" Caesar asked as a matter of course.

Gao Tang's pupils shrank when he heard that. Although Caesar's words were somewhat weak, Gao Tang had already realized that his wife and daughter might be... with that "madman"!
"What did you do to them?" Gao Tang asked sternly.

"First of all, it wasn't us... it was him. I just tied them up and tricked Naruse into drinking sleeping pills and antidepressants... Oh, you know what antidepressants are? After taking them, people will be super excited. According to the diagnosis five years ago, that guy shouldn't be able to take this kind of medicine. And sleeping pills and the like will probably only sleep for an hour. He should have woken up by now. Who made you miss it in time?"

Listening to what Xi Ze said, Gao Tang became more and more panicked. At this moment, Xi Ze's cell phone rang...

"Ah, as expected... Naruse sent me a photo... Hahaha... ahem..." Nishizawa suddenly laughed.

Gao Tang rushed over immediately: "Assholes! Why on earth did they…"

click -

Caesar pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Gao Tang's forehead as he rushed over.

"Don't be impulsive, Chief Justice... I think it's better for you not to watch it. After watching it, I had nightmares for five years." Caesar confirmed the death of his wife and daughter.

"You... damn it... if you want revenge... just kill me! Why don't you kill me! Why are you doing this!" Gao Tang seemed to have lost all his strength at this time and shouted hysterically.

"Why? Of course... to let you feel the pain too! Next, there's something even more interesting..." Caesar said, raising the muzzle of the pistol again.

"Oh...you're going to kill me in the end? Okay...go ahead!" Gao Tang said in despair.

"No, it should be...you killed me."

As Caesar spoke, he actually grabbed his father's hand and handed him the pistol.

"Let me think about it. That guy should be diagnosed as unconscious this time, right? He will most likely be released without charge. As for me... I didn't do anything. I just arrested the two of them and drugged that guy. But it's not poison, right?

"I am also a relative of the victim back then... Chief Justice, how many years do you think I will be sentenced to? It will not be more than ten years, right? It should even be less than five years... If there is another lawyer who thinks that my case has great social impact and helps me to fight the lawsuit, and also takes into account parole... Hahaha... Hahaha!" Caesar laughed at this time.

Gao Tang's expression was tense, he knew very well that Caesar was right.

but……

"But now you have a chance..." Caesar came forward, grabbed the barrel of the gun and put it against his head.

at the same time……

dong dong dong-

There's a knock on the door!
At this time, Fuji shouted from outside: "Mr. Nishizawa, Mr. Gaotang! You two are in there, right? Open the door!"

"Hey, why did the police come so quickly... What do you think? Do you want to kill your enemy here?" Caesar continued to question.

"You...I..." Gaotang's hands began to tremble, not because of fear, but because of... more conflicted emotions.

"If you miss it, you'll never have another chance... ahem..." Caesar said as a matter of course.

at this time……

click!
After a crisp sound, Bai Shi came in holding the door.

"Sorry, I'm a little anxious." Bai Shi came in and said, "Mr. Gaotang, please put down the gun and think about your identity!"

"Eh?"

The police officers from the Beihua Police Station behind were stunned when they heard this. They ran to both sides from behind Shiraishi, only to find out... it was Mr. Gaotang who was holding a gun at the scene?
On the contrary, Bai Shi didn't seem too surprised.

But no matter what, since one party had a gun and was pointing it at people, the police officers did not dare to step forward for fear of provoking the other party.

"That's right, Your Excellency, if you were to judge, how many years would I sentence you to? Let me do the math... The worst thing I've ever done was that when I caught them, I used too much force and punched each of them, breaking their noses, right? But they're dead now anyway, so it doesn't matter if I'm an ugly freak..." Caesar kept provoking him.

"Mr. Nishizawa, please stop..." Fujimasa tried to stop him.

but……

what--

Gaotang roared like a wild beast, and then...

boom--

The father opened fire!

The air in the room seemed to be stagnant, but...

After everyone came to their senses, they discovered that the scene they had imagined, with red and white objects flying everywhere, did not appear!
This gun...

Seems fake?
There was only a popping sound from the magazine, no flash from the barrel, and no bullets flew out...

At this time, Caesar looked at Gao Tang coldly and said, "So, this is your answer, right?"

At this moment, Bai Shi seemed to hear something, walked straight to the bedroom door, opened it with one foot, and then...

"Ah...are you okay?" Fujiya immediately saw that there were two women tied up inside.

Not only was he not dead as Caesar said, his nose didn't rot, and... there was no sign of him being violated at all. He was just tied up and his mouth was sealed.

Fuji and Kawai quickly stepped forward to untie the two...

"Mr. Gaotang, your wife and daughter are fine!" Kawai shouted with some excitement and some...resentment.

Gao Tang seemed to have lost all his strength due to the gunshot. He sat on the ground and his eyes were still blank after hearing the policewoman's voice. Until...

"Wait!" Gao Tang suddenly shouted in horror.

At this moment, Caesar turned around without any warning, rushed to the open window, opened the curtains and rushed out!
This is the sixth floor...

How can my parents, who are old, frail and suffering from great stress, catch up at this time?
When he reached the window, Gaotang didn't even dare to step forward to take a look...

Kuroki and other police officers rushed to the window at this time, and then... they breathed a sigh of relief.

under……

There are fire cushions!

At this time, someone from the fire brigade came forward to check and made a gesture - it was picked up just in time!

When the director arrived, he contacted the Kamurocho fire department directly.

In Kamurocho, Shiraishi's reputation is still very popular.

However, Kuroki and the others didn't expect that Director Shiraishi actually didn't come over to pull him - they really couldn't react just now, but... they believed that the director could definitely do it!

But I don’t know what Bai Shi was thinking, why didn’t he come over?
Although there is a cushion, but...

The sixth floor is also very extreme!
And what if I don’t receive it?

"Ah! Director, there is blood here!" Kanzaki seemed to have discovered something and shouted to Nishizawa who was leaning against the table.

Before her parents could get anxious, her wife Jizi and daughter Meimei had already escaped. It was obviously not their blood, and...

Meimei said quickly: "Xize... It's Mr. Xize's blood! He was injured when he was fighting with that man just now!"

"What?" Hearing this, Kuroki looked down again... Caesar was surrounded and carried into the ambulance.

Obviously, although Caesar was injured, his life was not in danger for the time being, so he was not rescued on the spot.

"That person... Naruse! Where is Naruse?" Fuji asked hurriedly.

She wasn't worried about Naruse's life or death, but was mainly worried...whether Nishizawa would kill him!

"Here... is this person? He's still alive!" Gen and Yamada turned Naruse out at this time - he was also tied up and stuffed in the closet.

Nishizawa didn't kill anyone. When Naruse wanted to hurt Kaoru and his daughter, he even struggled with him and was stabbed in the waist - that's why he was so weak when he spoke just now.

Just relying on willpower, I persisted in "acting" this scene...

Originally, Gaotang and her daughter thought that the two kidnappers had a fight and one of them was not that bad.

It was not until they heard the conversation between Caesar, her husband and her father in the room that they learned about the grudges involved.

"At least everyone is okay..." Teng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But just then...

click-

"At 9:45 pm, the murderer is under arrest!"

In the stunned eyes of everyone, Shiraishi tortured Takadobu...

"Director?"

"Ah...Officer...Dad..."

The police officers of the Mihua Police Station were stunned, and Gao Tang’s family members were even more so!

However, Gao Tang did not resist. Bai Shi said with a straight face: "Mr. Gao Tang, you used what you thought was a real gun, pointed it at the person you wanted to kill, and pulled the trigger... According to the criminal law of the East Island Country, the subjective and objective factors are completely unified, constituting the crime of intentional homicide, right?"

The attempted murder failed just because the gun was fake...that's all!

"That's right..." Gao Tang said dejectedly at this time, without further argument.

"Take him back!" Bai Shi urged. Seeing this, Hei Mu and Yuan who were standing next to him were the first to react. They also held Gao Tang on both sides without any hesitation.

The Director said it was intentional homicide, and...

It seems that it was indeed intentional murder...

Then take it back!
Just then, another alarm sounded outside.

The Metropolitan Police Department has just realized that Nishizawa might be in Kamurocho!

At the same time, I also learned that the police cars from the Beika Police Station... the convoy, came to Kamurocho in a mighty manner.

Although they guessed that Shiraishi was one step ahead, the Metropolitan Police Department still notified the Kamuro Police Station to come for support first.

When Shiraishi led the police officers and escorted Gao Tangbu downstairs, he happened to see Zeden coming in person - after all, he was the former Supreme Justice, so of course Zeden had to come in person!
At first, when he saw his parents coming out, Zedden was relieved...

Zeden really didn't have the guts to "compete" with Shiraishi for something like that - if any other police station dared to come to his territory to do such a thing, Zeden would have to talk to him about it...

But Shiraishi's words...

I just heard that when the police cars from the Beihua Police Station crossed the border in a mighty manner, Zeden didn't even dare to come out of the police station, for fear that Shiraishi would come after him.

Later, after receiving a call from the headquarters and learning the whole story, Zeden rushed over immediately.

Originally, Zedden just wanted to show off in front of his parents, but...

"Mr. Gaotang? Director Shiraishi, what are you doing?" Zedeng discovered that Gaotang was actually handcuffed when he came out.

"Arrest the criminal... Kuroki, take him to the car." Shiraishi said directly.

"Wait! You... this is Kamurocho! If you have any problem, come to Kamuro Police Station first... and stop them!" Zedden suddenly realized - since this was the case, he might be able to do something, so he gave the order.

In order to show his importance, Zeden also brought in the agency's mobile team members, each holding an explosion-proof shield, to try to stop them.

Bai Shi also waved his hand, and the police officers from both sides pushed each other...

It’s just that the Mika Police Department didn’t bring a mobile team or explosion-proof shields, so they were at a disadvantage in front of the shield wall.

"Director Shiraishi! What do you want to do? Let Mr. Takado go first... Even if you want to arrest him, this is Kamurocho, we should..." Zeden said as he retreated behind the "shield wall".

But at this moment, Bai Shi suddenly went from being still to moving, so fast that he almost "disappeared" on the spot!

The next moment, a huge crash sounded...

I saw a mobile team member holding an explosion-proof shield, flying backwards and hitting the car hard. I saw... the explosion-proof shield in his hand was half broken and half dented!
"The Mika Police Department has arrested a murderer in the act. If there is any resistance, you are allowed to fight back! Show me the results of the arrest training!" Bai Shi gave the order loudly.

After receiving the direct order from the chief, the police officers of the Mihua Police Department became more relaxed, and one by one they drew out the telescopic batons hidden on their waists and legs...

Follow Shiraishi directly and break through the explosion-proof shield wall of Kamuro Police Station. See Kuroki has already put people in the car!

At this moment, a police car from the Kamuro Police Department drove over and stopped in front of the Mika Police Department's car, blocking the path.

Zeden was actually quite panicked, and just wanted to delay the situation, but...

Shiraishi stepped forward and grabbed the lower body of the Kamuro Police Car with both hands...
