So, not long after the thief uttered this deduction, he had already scanned Cheng Shi and the girl inside the gate several times.

Then, with a look of sudden realization, he said: "Oh, I see."

But Cheng Shi only came to his senses at this moment, and then looked at him with an expression as if he were crazy.

"You really have a vivid imagination. Don't you even think about who could be here, huh?"

At this point, Cheng Shi suddenly paused, and he subconsciously turned to look at Yukinoshita.

Yukinoshita also realized what was happening and looked over.

The two looked at each other.

Subsequently

Cheng Shixue said: "I am not her (his) boyfriend (girlfriend)."

Although both of them were well aware that the other was just an ordinary classmate who had no feelings for them.

However, because of the thief's earlier explanation, the police officers did not seem to believe them so easily.

Upon seeing their expressions, Yukinoshita couldn't help but retort, "Officers, you wouldn't be so foolish as to believe what a thief says, would you?"

Upon hearing this, the police officers immediately coughed awkwardly.

"Cough cough cough! Of course not!"

"Yes, yes, how could we so easily believe what a criminal says?"

"Yeah!"

Yukinoshita and Naritsuki still looked skeptical.

In the end, Inspector Megure couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to defuse the situation.

"Alright, hurry up and bring the prisoner over here. What's the point of leaving a child to watch over him all this time?!"

"Oh, yes, yes!"

Upon receiving their superior's order, the officers went over and took the prisoner into custody.

Cheng Shi was thus freed up his hands.

Once the situation was under control, an officer took out his phone, retrieved the relevant information, and began comparing it.

"Inspector Megure, that's him, no doubt about it."

“Very good,” Inspector Megure nodded, then smiled and patted Narutoshi on the shoulder: “Thank you so much, Narutoshi-kun, your family is truly my lucky star!”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi did not nod in agreement, but instead reached out and patted Inspector Megure on the shoulder.

"You must be exhausted, Inspector Megure. It must be tough seeing them at crime scenes all the time."

""

Upon hearing this, a magnificent melody suddenly resonated in Inspector Megure's mind.

(PS: Ninelie)

What followed was the memory of all the cases in recent months in which Kogoro Mouri had been involved.

Recalling all this, Inspector Megure's expression gradually changed from normal to emo.

"Sigh, it's a long story."

"Thank you so much, Inspector Megure."

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Inspector Megure waved his hand wearily. "Who called you?"

Inspector Megure suddenly realized what was happening.

Who's comforting whom here?!

“Sei-kun,” Inspector Megure looked at him with a worried expression, “do you know that it’s wrong of you to play tricks on your brother-in-law’s friend like this?”

“No, Inspector Megure,” Cheng Shi shook his head and said, “Besides, you’re not Mouri’s brother-in-law’s friend; you’re his superior.”

""

Inspector Megure hesitated for a moment, then retorted, "Then isn't this even more serious?"

"How could that be?" Cheng Shi spread his hands and gave an example: "I neither tricked you nor lied to you, so how could it be so serious? Right?"

"Uh," Inspector Megure thought for a moment, "Yes."

"Right? Besides, even if you are Mori's brother-in-law's boss, you are already his former boss."

After explaining, Cheng Shi forgot to add a harsh dose of reality.

"So, even if you wanted to teach him a lesson, you couldn't, right? On the contrary, what if you saw him at a crime scene again someday? What do you think?"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Inspector Megure quickly interrupted, "Alright, alright, stop talking about it, I won't bring it up again."

If I continue, it will hurt my feelings.

But then again, what was he originally going to say to Cheng Shi?

Thinking this, Inspector Megure glanced around.

When Inspector Megure saw the people his subordinates were holding, he suddenly realized what was happening.

Oh, right, they brought the prisoner over to thank the crowd.

Chapter 62 complete.

"In short, we'll take this prisoner with us for now. As for the statement..."

Inspector Megure thought for a moment and said, "I'll wait until you have some time off before you come over again, either here or in Tokyo, it's fine."

"If you ever come to Tokyo, remember to let me know, and I'll treat you to a meal."

"Okay, I got it." Cheng Shi nodded, giving a perfunctory reply.

Let's talk about this during the holidays. We can ask Xiaolan on Line if she has any cases before deciding whether to go or not.

"Hmm," Inspector Megure said without saying anything more, just waved his hand: "Alright, go back now, no need to see me off."

"Remember to go to bed early, I remember you have school tomorrow."

“Yes, that’s true.” Cheng Shi agreed.

After saying that, Cheng Shi walked into the elevator amidst the astonished gazes of the police officers.

""

The two stared at each other for a few seconds.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going down?" Cheng Shi asked, looking puzzled.

“Of course I’m going down, but why are you going into the elevator? Don’t you live here?” one of the police officers couldn’t help but ask.

"Huh?" Cheng Shi looked confused. "Who told you I lived here? Didn't I say I came in from outside?"

"What!?" Inspector Megure couldn't help but exclaim.

"What you just said is actually true? You really went out for a stroll in the middle of the night!?"

"How could this be fake?" Cheng Shi rolled his eyes. "Besides, I did it just now, didn't I? You just didn't believe me."

Upon hearing his words, the police officers glanced instinctively at the arrested criminal before quickly looking away.

At the same time, Yukinoshita's words, "You wouldn't be so foolish as to believe a prisoner, would you?" suddenly started playing on repeat in their minds.

At this moment, the police officers fell silent.

They suddenly felt incredibly stupid.

At the same time, a nameless anger suddenly rose within me towards this prisoner.

Damn it, how could I have believed what he said!

Seeing that they remained motionless, Cheng Shi couldn't help but say:

"So, are you guys leaving or not? If not, I'm going downstairs now."

"Oh, let's go, let's go."

The group, urged on, quickly entered the elevator.

The prisoner, who was being held in the middle by the group, looked on incredulously.

"How could that be! How could my reasoning be wrong?"

"You're clearly wearing a high school uniform. Minors aren't allowed to go out at night, are they? Wouldn't they be forcibly sent home by the police?"

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, the police officers finally realized what was happening.

Yes, they said, how could they believe it so easily?

So that's what happened inside.

Cheng Shi nodded in understanding: "I see, that's what you think."

No wonder that guy looked so confident just now.

"That's understandable, it's normal for you to think that way, but unfortunately—I'm not from your country."
