“I remember you were formerly a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, so…”

Upon hearing this, Kuroda Hyōe frowned and then rebuked him righteously.

"You have a prejudice against the Japanese Public Security Bureau!"

"So what if I was a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau in the past?"

"Do all members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau have to possess extraordinary memory recovery abilities?"

The officer on the other side whispered in his ear.

"This man has a sniper rifle, which he intends to use to kill Kogoro Mouri."

Kuroda Hyōe: ?

Wow, what a wild approach!

He glanced around and then said.

"You have a good eye for people."

"Go close the door, and you over there, go fix the security camera."

"I chatted with him about everyday things."

Inside another conference room.

Inspector Megure is currently taking statements from Kogoro Mouri, Chen En, and Conan based on their descriptions.

During the recording of the statement.

The operator called back, saying there was a new case in Beika Town, and the Ministry of Transportation had assigned Inspector Megure to answer the phone.

Inspector Megure picked up the phone with some confusion.

Then I heard someone from the Ministry of Transportation say...

"Inspector Megure, is there a criminal case on your end involving a traffic accident?"

“We just received a report that a coffee shop in Beikacho was hit by an unidentified vehicle and suffered extensive damage. Citizens at the scene reported seeing a police car from the Criminal Investigation Department, so I came to ask you about it…”

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure paused for a moment before replying.

"Yes, yes, that's right."

"The person who crashed into the coffee shop is still unconscious and is being questioned by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

"Why don't you have your brothers from the Ministry of Transportation drive the shop owner over here? We can let him discuss compensation with the murderer on the spot, which will save your Ministry of Transportation from having to go through several procedures."

"That's what the traffic officer over there replied."

"Okay."

Another day of leaving get off work early, how wonderful!

After hanging up the phone with the Ministry of Transport.

Inspector Megure then supplemented the case record of yesterday's incident.

Then, somewhat uneasily, he asked Chen En.

"By the way, when is your dark-skinned friend coming to give a statement?"

“I remember he was from Osaka Prefecture.”

"Don't let him run back to Osaka Prefecture by himself. We haven't even taken a statement here yet. We'll have to go to the Osaka Police Headquarters to negotiate and get him to come back to give a statement. It's such a hassle."

Of course, although it's troublesome, it's not actually that troublesome.

It's just that Inspector Megure, being a police officer in the Kanto region, doesn't really want to deal with police officers in the Kansai region.

It is well known that the relationship between the Kanto and Kansai regions has always been very bad.

Consequently, the relationship between the two police departments is also very bad.

If the Osaka Police Headquarters found out about this, they'd probably laugh at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for a long time.

"Hattori Heiji?"

"Don't worry, he won't leave Tokyo until Sunday."

Chen En replied.

"I'll talk to him later and ask him to come over as soon as possible to give a statement so we can settle this matter."

However, since last night, after Hattori Heiji went to see Toyama Kazuha.

He hasn't seen Hattori Heiji yet, nor has he contacted him. He really doesn't know what Hattori Heiji is doing now. He'll have Noah's Ark check on him later.

Chapter 1007: Daydreaming again, daydreaming about Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri...

"What did you say?"

Inside the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, the coffee shop owner collapsed upon hearing that the person who stole the truck and crashed into his shop would not receive a single penny in compensation, startling several nearby police officers who rushed to his aid.

If you're going to die, die outside the police station, don't die inside.

Do you know how much public opinion would be stirred up if you died at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters?

In this regard, as the person directly involved in this case...

Hiroshi Ukita still looked blankly at the many busy police officers.

He acted as if everything before him had nothing to do with him.

Even his eyes seemed to have become a little purer.

Notice the change in Hiroshi Ukita's eyes.

Inspector Megure couldn't help but give a thumbs-up to Kuroda Hei, who was carrying a cup of coffee and preparing to search the Fourth Division's area.

I have to say, you're the most authoritative on this topic.

In response, Kuroda Hyōe merely glanced at Inspector Megure and Hiroshi Ukita.

Then he sighed and disappeared from Inspector Megure's sight.

I haven't used the memory recovery technique for many years.

I never imagined that I would need to use the Great Memory Restoration Technique one day.

It made him nostalgic for his glorious days when he was still working for the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

Unfortunately, time can never be turned back.

Before Hiroshi Ukita could recover, they took advantage of the moment.

Inspector Megure quickly instructed Wataru Takagi to take a notebook and question Hiroshi Ukita about the motive, the course of events, and other aspects of the case, preparing to take a statement and compare it with the testimony given by Sei-on and the others, so as to quickly close the case.

Soon, Hiroshi Ukita explained the details of the case clearly.

This includes, but is not limited to, his work as a bartender at the Lemon Bar in Beika Town after his release from prison, and his anger upon discovering that Kogoro Mouri and his friends were drinking at the Lemon Bar, which led him to plan to harm Kogoro Mouri.

Mr. Kimura, who received a home visit call from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, was just a casual customer at the Lemon Bar at the time.

He was a habitual thief in the past.

With the mindset that a thief can't leave empty-handed, Hiroshi Ukita stole Mr. Kimura's phone to send death threats to Kogoro Mouri. It was just a quick thing to do, and it wouldn't take long.

He went on to describe where he stole the truck and obtained the sniper rifle.

This prompted Wataru Takagi, who was standing nearby, to quickly jot down everything that Hiroshi Ukita had described, intending to verify it later.

This information is already quite detailed.

If I'm lucky, I can get everything sorted out before I leave work today, without having to work overtime.

Just as Inspector Megure and Wataru Takagi were about to wrap up work.

Two slightly hurried footsteps appeared at the main entrance of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

They both turned around at the same time and saw two familiar figures appear in their line of sight.

It was Eri Kisaki and Ran Mouri.

Unlike the usual professional uniform.

Eri Kisaki changed into a casual outfit, which was similar to Ran Mouri's, making them look like they were wearing matching mother-daughter outfits.

This alone shows that she didn't go to work today.

Although it's not entirely clear why Eri Kisaki only arrived at this time.

However, Inspector Megure could tell at a glance that Eri Kisaki had come to see Kogoro Mouri.

So he took the initiative to greet Eri Kisaki, and then pointed to the conference room over there.

"Sister-in-law, Mori is over in the conference room."

"I need to verify some case information, so I won't go with you. You can look for it yourself."

Inspector Megure's words caught Eri Kisaki's attention, so she quickly nodded in acknowledgment.

Only then did he and Ran disappear from Inspector Megure's sight.

After all, she and Inspector Megure were old acquaintances.

Although their close relationship is mainly due to Kogoro Mouri.

"Oh dear, Inspector Megure, I have a feeling that Detective Mouri's side is going to be in an uproar later."

Takagi Wataru chimed in from the side.

He felt that the conflict between Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mouri wasn't actually that big, but for some reason, they would always disagree and argue every time they met.

Last time, Kogoro Mouri got drunk and had an affair with a female friend, only to stumble upon a heinous murder case.

At that time, Eri Kisaki came to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and had a big argument with Kogoro Mouri.

Finally, the two of them went out together, but no one knows where they went.

Let's just hope the couple doesn't fight too badly...
