Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

What will happen if I go to jail?

"They could be sentenced to ten or twenty years in prison. The chance of the death penalty is not nonexistent."

Miwako Sato's tone remained icy.

Shiraishi Xiu gritted his teeth and said:

"Don't you know me? Do you believe me? I really didn't kill anyone."

"Ha ha……"

Miwako Sato sneered:

"Don't treat me and the police like fools. The evidence is conclusive, all the clues point to you. You didn't kill him, but you did. And now you're still trying to lie to me."

She is very disappointed, but even more so, she is angry, so angry that her body is trembling and cold.

"No, no!"

Shiraishi Xiu remembered something from the record and quickly said:

"I didn't, I'm sure I didn't. The report said my door wasn't locked at night, which means anyone could have come in, and anyone could have framed me!"

After listening, Sato Miwako remained expressionless, still coldly staring at Shiraishi Osamu, as did Inspector Megure and the others.

When Shiraishi Xiu saw this, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition rose from the bottom of his heart.

The next second his expression changed, his premonition had come true.

It's been twenty-four hours since the last chapter.

Let me explain the content of the previous chapter.

"The deceased was the female server at the comic book cafe, the same woman the protagonist first met at the counter."

"Because I received a reward of one-fifth of my physical constitution, I thought my body would become dirty, so I cleverly took off my clothes. Then, because I was hot, I lay down on the floor and fainted during the reward boost."

The next day, Sato Miwako was woken up by someone calling the police and knocking on the door. The moment she woke up, she found a corpse next to her, and it was a woman she had seen before.

"Then, Sato Miwako successfully broke down the door and saw everything before her. That concludes the previous chapter."

Chapter 0016: Anti-theft Camera

Sato Miwako's next words made Shiraishi Osamu shudder.

"This store has security cameras, which happened to capture everything from last night."

The surroundings became quiet.

A group of police officers were waiting for Shiraishi Osamu's reaction.

Shiraishi Osamu raised his head, his gaze fixed on Sato Miwako, and shook the handcuffs in his hands, saying:

"Can I see the camera footage? I really didn't kill anyone, I won't be satisfied until I see it."

Inspector Megure then stepped forward and sighed, "Sir, you don't need to struggle anymore. We've investigated thoroughly, and the evidence is conclusive. Even if you hire the best lawyer, it won't help."

"I am innocent."

"But……"

"No buts."

Shiraishi Osamu interrupted Inspector Megure directly, saying seriously:

"With so many police officers and me handcuffed, do you think I could run away? I'm saying I'm innocent and I want to see for myself, is that not allowed?"

Inspector Megure was momentarily at a loss for words to refute her, as what she said seemed to make a lot of sense.

Miwako Sato stood up and walked directly towards the computer counter, saying as she went:

"If you want to watch it, then watch it. I hope that after watching this video, you will no longer have any illusions about yourself."

"I didn't do it, so I didn't do it. Sato Miwako, I've got you cornered."

After shouting his words, Shiraishi Osamu stood up with his neck stiff and strode towards Sato Miwako.

He simply refused to believe that someone who had watched seven or eight hundred episodes of Detective Conan could be wrongly accused by anyone.

Di Renjie watched it quite a bit too.

I've also seen Kindaichi.

He had watched TV dramas about Song Ci and Bao Zheng before, and he refused to believe that he couldn't resolve this clearly unjust case.

Very soon...

Miwako Sato opened the video recorded by the computer's security camera, and Osamu Shiraishi stared wide-eyed, watching every detail intently.

In the video.

He hasn't gone out since he came back yesterday.

Fast forward to an afternoon when there were hardly any people around. Then at midnight, Tanaka Megumi walked over, and the door to the room to the left of his private room opened, and a man peeked out.

The man wore glasses, had somewhat disheveled hair, and looked very unkempt.

However, the man stood motionless at the door, watching Tanaka Megumi curiously walk in after discovering that her door was not closed before finally closing her own door.

Then the screen remained silent.

No one came out, and no one was wandering around in the corridor, because it was late at night.

Soon, it was the next morning.

The burly man in the private room to his left opened the door and came out. Then, he seemed to see the blood flowing to the door from next door and frantically called the police.

Shortly after, Miwako Sato arrived, and the scene paused.

Sato Miwako released her grip on the mouse and stared intently at Shiraishi Osamu.

Cold sweat trickled down Shiraishi's temples. The video footage was flawless. Based on what was shown in the video and the results of the police investigation, there was no doubt that he was the murderer.

But he didn't believe it.

His gaze was fixed on the somewhat evasive man in the paused scene.

There are quite a few cases like this in the world of Conan.

Generally, if there is only one suspect at the crime scene, the murderer is definitely that suspect. This is an experience he has gained from watching Conan for many years, and it is absolutely correct.

But o…

But he has no idea how the other party killed him.

It couldn't possibly be through walls, could it?

If someone truly possessed such skill, would they use it for something like this?

"What else do you have to say, Osamu Shiraishi..."

Sato Miwako's cold voice rang out.

Shiraishi Xiu turned his head to look at the face so close to his, and at that fixed gaze. Although he was panicking inside, he still tried to remain calm and said:

"The video seems fine. May I see the crime scene?"

Sato Miwako stared at Shiraishi Osamu, and at that defiant and indomitable gaze, and her heart finally softened. She nodded and said:

"This is your last chance. If we can't find any clues to prove you're not the murderer, you'll have no choice but to be taken away by me."

Thanks?

Shiraishi Osamu said in a low voice.

Surrounded by the police, the two returned to the crime scene, which was Shiraishi Osamu's private room.

Tanaka Megumi's body remained motionless, a knife stuck in her heart, her clothes somewhat disheveled.

"You go inside, I'll keep watch outside."

Miwako Sato gently nudged Osamu Shiraishi.

Shiraishi Osamu slowly walked into his room.

This was the first time he had been so close to a human corpse, and he felt a wave of unease. When he woke up in the morning, his mind was still foggy, so he didn't feel anything.

Looking at it now, I can hardly stand it.

Suppressing her discomfort, she almost took a quick look around her room.

The room was just as clean and tidy as it had been yesterday.

A bed, a small table, and a computer.

But now there is an extra, cold corpse.

Unable to figure it out, he could only examine the corpse.

The blood near his heart had already congealed, and he knew that a knife had pierced his heart and caused his death. The nail of his left middle finger was missing, and he didn't know where it had broken off.

"Huh...huh..."

Shiraishi Xiu breathed heavily, his mind racing as he tried to figure out what was going on.

There was a concrete roof above and a concrete floor on the ground. The only things that weren't concrete were the wooden walls on both sides.

Shiraishi Osamu suddenly turned his head and stared at the wooden wall on the left.

He himself was not the murderer. If the deceased did not commit suicide, the only possibility for the murderer was that he came to his room by passing through the wooden wall.

The wooden walls are smooth and have nothing superfluous about them.

He reached out and gently touched it, feeling a solid, substantial sensation. He pushed it hard, but it wouldn't budge.

Shiraishi Xiu did not give up. He pushed each wooden wall, but they remained unmoved.

"Thump thump... thump thump thump..."

He seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat, a nervous, trembling heartbeat.

No way.

He couldn't think of a solution.

Even after using the process of elimination to find out that the person behind the wall might be the murderer, he still didn't know how the other person had done it.

His gaze began to wander, thinking that even if he went to prison, it wouldn't matter, since he had the system and would be able to escape one day with the rewards from signing in.
