It's a disguise, absolutely a disguise.

Just then, a sound came from the next room again, and several people immediately went over to eavesdrop.

"Oh? A robbery at a convenience store."

"No, I just have something I'd like to ask Officer Takagi. Inspector Megure, please tell him to focus on the case."

Seeing that Shiratori Renzaburo had hung up the phone, Sato Miwako quickly asked, "What about the convenience store robbery you mentioned? Wasn't Officer Takagi checking eyewitness testimonies today?"

"Just as he finished questioning the eyewitnesses, a convenience store robbery happened. I heard that although he has now found three suspects, the eyewitness testimonies do not match up at all."

Seeing that Sato Miwako was about to make a phone call, Shiratori Ninzaburo stopped her, saying, "That's a foul."

"Furthermore, the police officer who was handling the case left the scene midway and came here, which is a violation of regulations and must be punished. I remember he was punished with a pay cut once, right?"

“If he really has the courage to accept a second admonition and come here to pick you up, I would admire him as a real man.”

...

Yusuke Suzuki frowned as he listened. Inexplicably, the words transformed into, "Officer Sato, you don't want Takagi to lose his job, do you?"

Something's wrong with me!

Sweeping away the strange thoughts in his mind, Yusuke Suzuki got up and left.

"Brother Yusuke, where are you going?"

Conan immediately followed, feeling that he needed to go to the toilet and have a remote call with Officer Takagi. But what was Suzuki Yusuke going to do?

"Call him and see what's going on with Takagi."

Conan was overjoyed. As expected of his trusted friend, their thoughts were quite aligned. This was good, as he wouldn't have to reveal his identity as Shinichi Kudo.

Chapter 151 Live Broadcast

"How much longer are you going to keep us locked up in this car?"

"The sun is almost setting!"

Takagi Wataru was at his wits' end when confronted with the interrogation of the three suspects.

"Just wait a little longer..."

At this moment, his cell phone rang.

Yusuke?

"Yusuke, I'm busy right now, let's talk about it later."

Wait a while longer? If you wait any longer, your wife will belong to someone else!

Yusuke Suzuki, too lazy to waste words, directly explained everything clearly.

"If you don't believe me, you can look at the text message Yumi sent you."

Takagi Wataru, puzzled, checked the messages.

"Miwako's in trouble, so you lied and said she went on a blind date at the Mizuto Tower..." Takagi Wataru read through each word, completely stunned. "Officer Sato really went on a blind date!?"

"Calm down, Takagi. There's still time before sunset. Suitoro is in Beika, not far away."

Takagi Wataru was still in a daze.

After the sun sets, Officer Sato will marry him... she'll marry him...

"Hey, Takagi! Takagi? Takagi!?"

Seeing that there was no response on the phone, Suzuki Yusuke became anxious and called out several times before he managed to pull Takagi Wataru's soul back from leaving his body.

"In short, tell me the details of what happened first."

After hearing what happened, Suzuki Yusuke exclaimed in disbelief, "Didn't you even consider having them identify each other? The robber was definitely the last one to enter the public restroom! Surely the other two couldn't have missed a single sound?"

"But they all said they didn't hear anything..."

Now even Suzuki Yusuke was stunned. Is this the power of Detective Conan...? Do we really have to choose one of three to solve the mystery?

Taking a deep breath, Yusuke Suzuki said into the phone, "Tell me the detailed characteristics of the three suspects."

"One of them was named Hiroshi Zama, 21 years old, unemployed, about 180 centimeters tall, wearing a blue sweater and earrings."

"The other man is named Yasuo Kamie, 32 years old, a cram school lecturer, about 170 cm tall, wearing a green sweater and glasses."

"The only woman was Ms. Eiko Koshimizu, 28 years old, an office worker, about 160 cm tall, dressed in all black, and wearing two watches on her wrists."

"The robber was wearing a helmet, a jacket, and gloves when he robbed the convenience store. He didn't say a word. The tricky part is that the eyewitness testimonies are completely different."

"The old man who was knocked down by the robber in front of the park said that he saw a woman wearing blue."

The girl who saw the robber in the clothing store said that among the crowd, the robber was a head taller than everyone else, so he must be a man taller than 180 centimeters. She also saw that he was wearing green clothes under his coat.

"However, the coffee shop owner said that when he was at the shop entrance, the robber he saw was about 170 centimeters tall and wearing a black shirt under his jacket."

"Brother Yusuke, the eyewitness testimonies are completely different. This case seems quite interesting."

Conan listened intently to the phone, a mysterious smile on his face.

Yusuke Suzuki gave him a cold look and asked, "What exactly are you here for?"

"Of course, I'm helping," Conan said with an awkward smile, scratching his head.

After thinking for a moment, Yusuke Suzuki asked, "Was the coffee shop owner wearing sunglasses?"

"Sunglasses? No, but I am wearing glasses."

Upon hearing this, Conan whispered, "I remember that the boss didn't used to wear glasses."

???

Yusuke Suzuki was immediately amazed by Conan's incredible memory.

"Takagi, go ask if that boss is wearing non-prescription glasses, the kind that change color when exposed to ultraviolet light for more than 15 seconds."

Takagi Wataru immediately complied and led the coffee shop owner outside.

"It really looks like sunglasses!" Takagi Wataru exclaimed excitedly. "So, what the boss saw was black clothing, but it was actually because of the glasses."

"Okay, locked on. The culprit is that 170cm tall Yasuo Kamieda."

Yusuke Suzuki drew a definitive conclusion.

"Huh? Why? That girl said the prisoner's height should be over 180 centimeters."

Conan also looked inquisitive.

"The girl saw the robber in the crowd, so her judgment of height might be affected by some factors. But the coffee shop owner was different; he brushed past the robber, so his judgment of height was almost accurate."

"Similarly, the color of the clothes can be determined based on the girl's testimony, because she saw it through the shop window, so the color would not be affected. The clothes the robber was wearing under his coat can also be determined to be green."

"Wouldn't that identify people who exhibit both of these characteristics?"

“But,” Takagi Wataru still felt uneasy, “the old man who was knocked down said the other person was wearing blue clothes, and his eyesight wasn’t affected either, was it?”

"Older people often use 'blue' as a general term to refer to all colors, including light blue and blue-green."

The phone died as soon as I finished speaking.

Yusuke Suzuki looked shocked, but then relaxed. He had already said everything he needed to say. The only thing he hadn't mentioned was the crucial evidence, but he couldn't help with that. It was up to Wataru Takagi to figure it out himself.

He remembered that even when Conan was ambushed by Ran Mouri, Wataru Takagi still managed to find the culprit himself. The young man was quite capable.

Just then, a familiar figure passed by in the corridor.

Shuichi Akai?

Yusuke Suzuki frowned slightly. How did this guy get here? The FBI has stopped monitoring him, so he probably didn't come with him.

Vermouth?

It seems that Shinichiro's true identity has been exposed.

That makes sense, after all, Judy orchestrated Shinichi Masaaki's car accident herself, so it was easy for her to see through the identity of the Thousand-Faced Witch.

Why not just take action directly?

In the current situation, with Shuichi Akai arriving with the FBI, there's a high chance he'll capture Vermouth. He's probably worried she'll take Conan and Ran hostage...

If that's the case, then Suzuki Yusuke can only say they're overthinking it. Vermouth would rather come and kidnap him than harm Conan and Ran Mouri.

"Let's go back."

Yusuke Suzuki glanced in Akai Shuichi's direction; the latter was talking to a waiter, presumably checking Vermouth's whereabouts.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw three people pressed against it, spying on him.

Is there something new going on?

Yusuke Suzuki and Conan immediately found their respective positions and became fully focused.

"Mr. Suzuki, where are you...?"

The five people turned around, and the waiter stood at the door with a puzzled look on his face.

"Let's listen to what's going on next door. He's about to propose, so we can surprise him."

"Oh, I see," the waitress said with a smile, covering her mouth. "Then I won't bother you any longer."

Chapter 152 It Has to Be Me Again

Honestly, Suzuki Yusuke ran to close the door tightly, but out of the corner of his eye, he didn't see Akai Shuichi.

Where did this guy go?

Never mind, let's eat some melon seeds first.

next door.

"I think the sun is about to set."

Shiratori Ninzaburo looked out the window at the sky, his smile growing even brighter.

"yes..."

“Officer Sato, it’s not that I don’t believe your promise,” Shiratori Ninzaburo said, closing the window and turning back. “If Officer Takagi can’t make it in time, and I win this match, I want proof.”
