With further investigation, he quickly found the other party's current address.
The only thing that bothered Jiang Hang was that when he was investigating the other party's address, he also found out the other party's bank account statements.
Almost every week, the funds in the other party's account fluctuate greatly, but overall, the decrease is at a very steady rate.
In just a few years, the funds in the other party's bank account have grown from tens of millions to hundreds of thousands.
Based on Jiang Hang's experience, either this guy has been scammed and hasn't realized it yet, or he's a complete gambler who has lost all his family's money at the gambling table.
"It seems the investigation yielded some additional results," Jiang Hang thought to himself, backing up the information he had gathered to his phone before leaving his room.
In the living room, Sakaki Shizuka was having a friendly conversation with Hattori Shizuka.
Seeing Jiang Hang come out of the room, Shizuka Sakaki quickly stood up and gave him her seat. At the same time, she secretly gave Jiang Hang a look, as if she wanted to remind him of something.
It seems that this "Ms. Ikenami" has just revealed some flaw that Shizuka Sakaki noticed?
Although she is the wife of the head of the Osaka Police Department, her disguise skills seem to be completely inadequate.
Jiang Hang gave Shizuka Sakaki a look that said, "I'm under your control," as if to reassure her.
Then he sat down and smiled at Hattori Shizuka, saying, "Ms. Ikenami, I have found out the whereabouts of Shibata Shiro, the man you are looking for. He is currently living in a villa in Shizuoka Prefecture. If you are in a hurry, I can drive you there."
It takes an hour and a half to travel from Tokyo to Shizuoka Prefecture by Shinkansen, while it takes about three hours by car.
But Jiang Hang is not a normal person.
After experiencing the artistic driving style of Bunta Fujiwara in Gunma Prefecture, he returned and upgraded his riding skills to the advanced level.
Although he might not be as good as Fujiwara Bunta, who had dedicated his life to mastering Akina Mountain, Jiang Hang felt that he could still be compared to him in other areas.
If he speeds up, getting to Shizuoka in an hour and a half, just like the Shinkansen, is not a problem.
He glanced at the time.
2 p.m.
So as long as nothing unexpected happens in Shizuoka, I should be able to make it back in time for dinner.
Seemingly sensing the light in Jiang Hang's eyes, Shizuka Sakaki suddenly had a bad feeling.
She remembered that after Kiharu Yuno returned from Gunma Prefecture last time, she was in a daze for several days. When she asked her about it, she repeatedly reminded her not to let Jiang Hang touch the steering wheel outside the city, otherwise something terrible would happen!
So, just how scary is it to have Jiang Hang drive?
Chapter 507: Chapter 503: Murder Cases Always Appear Around Detectives
At 3:50 p.m., 20 minutes later than expected, Jiang Hang couldn't help but show a regretful expression.
You can't drive too fast in Tokyo. Even though he has a good relationship with the Metropolitan Police Department, he still has to obey traffic light rules and can't just speed over 150 km/h in Tokyo.
He drove slowly through Tokyo city for half an hour before finally leaving the city and entering the suburbs, where he was able to showcase his true skills.
In contrast to Jiang Hang's regret, the two women in his car were not so calm at this moment.
However, since one of them came from a prestigious family and received a ladylike upbringing, and Shizuka Sakaki had her physique slightly enhanced by the system, neither of them vomited in the car while Jiang Hang was driving.
It was only after she parked her car that she ran to a nearby public restroom and rested for twenty minutes before she could barely recover.
"You shouldn't drive so fast next time, you'll scare people to death..." After personally experiencing Jiang Hang's driving skills, Sakaki Shizuka finally understood why Koharu Yuno said that.
It's really scary.
The uphill roads were alright, after all, the performance of the AE86 is what it is, even if you want to speed, you can't go very fast.
But going downhill is practically like flying at a very low speed.
Sitting in the passenger seat, she felt absolutely no grip on the road. With every bend, she felt like she was going to heaven with Jiang Hang.
But Jiang Hang always manages to take the corner perfectly just before reaching her limit, and before she can even catch her breath, she's already at the next corner.
This cycle repeated itself, and even though Shizuka Sakaki thought her endurance was pretty good, she still almost fainted from fright a few times along the way.
Fortunately, they have finally arrived at their destination. Now she is only thinking that she should drive herself back. She really can't let Jiang Hang touch the steering wheel when there are other people in the car again.
Which client could withstand such stimulation?
Sakaki Shizuka muttered to herself, while frantically apologizing to Hattori Shizuka, who also looked rather unpleasant, saying that she had no idea Jiang Hang would drive like this.
Hattori Shizuka waved her hand dismissively at Sakaki Shizuka, indicating that her training was still insufficient. After all, it was Jiang Hang's way of driving so wildly on the road so that she could find her photo more quickly.
In short, after they had calmed down a bit, the two of them left the bathroom.
"This time, I saw that the client was in a hurry, so next time I'll drive a little slower," Jiang Hang explained to the two women without showing any apology on his face.
Shizuka Sakaki is his assistant, a well-rounded talent who will develop in multiple fields in the future. It wouldn't do if she felt nauseous even while riding in a car.
At worst, he can just give Shizuka Sakaki an intermediate driving skill level, and she should get used to it after riding in his car a few more times.
As for Hattori Shizuka, well, why did she choose to find a friend in Shizuoka Prefecture instead of someone she could easily reach in Tokyo, just to test her abilities?
After greeting them, Jiang Hang led the two women toward the apartment he had previously found out about.
However, when they arrived at the Shibata house, they rang the doorbell several times but there was no response from the other side.
"Maybe they went out. After all, it's the weekend, so it's normal for no one to be home..." After waiting a while longer, Shizuka Sakaki explained, "How about we come back later?"
However, Jiang Hang shook his head.
"No, there should have been no one at the Shibata house before this morning."
He looked at the two women and said, “While you were in the bathroom, I glanced down at the apartment building and noticed that the Shibata family still hadn’t picked up their morning newspaper subscription from this morning.”
Sakaki Shizuka was still a little confused: "Isn't that also going out for fun? What's the difference between the two?"
"So you're still quite a ways off from being a qualified detective."
A qualified detective must always consider the worst-case scenario, no matter what happens. After all, famous detectives around the world are always surrounded by all sorts of cases.
Of course, this was also because Jiang Hang, with his keen senses, sensed an ominous atmosphere in the room.
As he said this, Jiang Hang took out the lock-picking tools that were essential for an assassin... no, for a detective agency, from the toolbox at his waist.
"Even so, it's not good for you to suddenly pull out lock-picking tools. What if they really just went out to play?" Although Shizuka Sakaki always trusted Jiang Hang, her trust in him had slightly decreased after she had just ridden in his car, so she couldn't help but confirm with him again.
Jiang Hang had just inserted the lock-picking tool into the keyhole and pried it twice before pulling it back: "So the door wasn't locked. Then we need to check it even more. Even in an apartment, no one would leave the door unlocked if they were staying out overnight."
As he said this, he gently turned the doorknob and opened the door.
Almost as soon as the door was opened, the subtle sense of unease that had been building up suddenly intensified.
Although it wasn't very strong, it definitely smelled like human blood!
Jiang Hang, who was already very familiar with this smell, quickly reminded Sakaki Shizuka to call the police, and then rushed into the room where the bloody smell was coming from.
Behind him, Hattori Shizuka also showed a look of surprise and doubt as she followed Jiang Hang into the house.
In the kitchen, a middle-aged man with a bloody head lay on the floor.
Jiang Hang only glanced at the person before confirming that it was indeed Shibata Shiro, the one Hattori Shizuka had asked him to find.
He crouched down and briefly checked the other person's breathing, quickly confirming that the person was already dead.
Judging from his eyesight, the man had probably died this morning, which matched his guess.
The cause of death was a blunt force trauma to the head.
Based on the current situation, it is highly likely to be a wooden knife.
He stood up, took the phone from Shizuka Sakaki, who had already dialed the police and was on her way to check what was happening inside the house, and told her about his discovery.
After doing all this, he hung up the emergency call and then looked at Hattori Shizuka.
“Ms. Ikenami, it seems we’ll have to stay here for the night.”
If the other party's identity is unknown, then Hattori Shizuka in front of us is indeed the most suspicious one.
But now that he knew the other person's identity, Jiang Hang could only think that this world's "blessing" for detectives had appeared again.
Before his time travel, he always complained about Conan's death aura, but now it seems he has completely unlocked that ability himself.
Fortunately, Shizuka Hattori came from a wealthy family, and her husband was the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, so she remained calm in the face of the situation.
To put it bluntly, her expression was much worse when she got out of Jiang Hang's car than it is now.
She stood in a position that wouldn't interfere with the crime scene, calmly watching Jiang Hang, wearing professional gloves, examine the body of her high school friend.
The entire process can only be described as professional, making one wonder if the person had worked as a forensic pathologist for several years before coming to Japan.
While Shizuka Sakaki wasn't as daring as Jiang Hang, she immediately started filming the crime scene after hanging up the phone, preserving all the evidence.
Jiang Hang quickly realized that this was not the primary crime scene.
The actual crime scene should be in the living room.
There were traces of blood dripping from the living room to the kitchen.
Judging from the victim's actions before death, it seems that he was eating breakfast when he was suddenly struck on the head from behind by the assailant wielding a wooden knife, and then immediately lost consciousness.
Then the murderer probably thought the victim was already dead, so he didn't continue to stab him, since the victim only had this one fatal wound.
But the murderer probably didn't expect that the victim, who had been unconscious for a while, would regain consciousness before dying and use his last strength to crawl to the kitchen.
As for why it was the kitchen...
Jiang Hang quickly determined the other party's purpose by observing the direction the deceased crawled before he died.
"There's no phone installed in the entryway or the living room, but the phone is installed in the kitchen... This is quite a rare design," Jiang Hang concluded.
The deceased wanted to call for help before he died, but unfortunately, his awakening was just a final burst of energy before he died. He died completely from his head injury and excessive blood loss before he could even reach the phone.
While muttering about the cause of death, Jiang Hang soon noticed that the other person seemed to be tightly gripping something in their right hand.
What you can hold in your hand at the very end of someone's life is probably the last clue they left behind before they died.
Please don't let some kind of riddle-solving person appear at this time.
Thinking about how the victims in the Conan world left behind increasingly riddles in their last words, it's as if they were all afraid that the murderer would see their last words and tamper with them, so they simply left behind riddles that only someone with Conan's almost superhuman associative abilities could solve.
In response, Jiang Hang could only say that if the murderer had noticed the last words, even if they were written in a way that was completely incomprehensible, wouldn't the murderer have simply altered them to make them even more incomprehensible or completely erased them as a precaution?
However, thinking back to the previous case, Miyoshi Asako, even though Tsukumo Motoyasu had clearly indicated that there was a problem with the phone, she was still able to take advantage of the brief chaos when Tsukumo Motoyasu's body was discovered to cut the thread behind him and then reconnect the severed phone line, ensuring that the police would not find anything when they came to investigate.
But they just didn't notice the number that had been dialed on the phone.
Without that number, Jiang Hang really wouldn't have been able to directly identify Sanhao Mazi.
