Chapter 172 Akai Shu1's Suspicion
Chapter 172 Akai Shu1's Suspicion
Xia Xi was also surprised to see Kaiya, a person who should not have been there, become the suspect in this accident, and almost couldn't help rolling her eyes.
Really, why does he join in all the fun? Now he has become a suspect.
"Okay, now tell me about the relationship between you and the victim." Officer Megure did not notice the strange looks from some people around him and began to continue questioning the suspect according to the procedure.
Among these four people, except Kaia and Akai Shuichi who just met Mr. Kono today, the other two have known Mr. Kono Hideki for many years.
"Officer, I'm here today because I heard that Mr. Takano was going to confess his love to my friend, so I came to watch the fun." Kaeya held Klee's hand with one hand and showed a helpless smile as if he had encountered an unexpected situation.
Xia Xi: “…”
You said you wanted to watch the fun right in front of me, Kaiya, just wait...
Akai Shuu glanced sideways: Confessing to a friend...So that means Kaia’s friend is that magical girl.
Is the reason why he suddenly appeared here really so simple? Has it nothing to do with the organization?
And there is the little girl named Klee. I didn’t expect that Kaia, who was strong and cunning when he appeared in the hotel, would be so gentle when facing his own sister.
When Kaeya just entered here, Shuichi Akai saw him. He thought that his appearance here was related to that Jundu, but when he saw the little girl he was holding, he realized that it was not what he thought.
His target today is Jundu. In addition to the warning given by the other party, although it was another person who attacked at that time, Shuichi Akai felt that Kaeya himself was not easy to deal with. Therefore, as long as Kaeya did not hinder their actions, he planned to ignore the other party's existence.
But Shuichi Akai did not expect that an accident would happen before the FBI had arranged its manpower. With so many police officers coming, it was not convenient to take action now.
Shuichi Akai could only send a message to his boss James, informing him to start plan B.
"Besides, I've only been here for a short time and I don't have time to arrange all this. Besides, I've always been with Klee. I can't possibly do this in front of a child." When Kaia mentioned Klee, he raised the hand that he was holding with Klee, indicating that he was still with the child.
"Well...what you said makes sense." Inspector Megure nodded. Based on the testimony of others, Kaia did not have the conditions to commit the crime, so he could basically be ruled out as a suspect.
Conan didn't have any different opinions. He didn't think that Kaeya did it at the beginning.
Now there are only three suspects, and somehow, Inspector Megure feels that this is normal.
"Officer, in this case, I didn't have the conditions to commit the crime. I just transported the tree here according to instructions, and I just met Mr. Kono today." Shuichi Akai explained right after Kaia.
"That's not necessarily true." Kaiya glanced at Akai Shuichi meaningfully, then turned to Officer Megure and smiled and reminded him, "I heard that Mr. Takano scolded Mr. Akai for a long time before, and even said that he would deduct his salary."
Then he applied eye drops, "And Officer Megure, this Mr. Akai looks so fierce, he doesn't look like a good person at first glance, maybe he did something impulsive in a fit of anger."
"Don't make assumptions about others when talking about clues." Jinpei Matsuda frowned and interrupted Kaia's dirty talk.
The corner of Matsuda's mouth twitched. Mr. Kaia, please look in the mirror before saying such things. Compared with Mr. Akai, he looks even less like a good person.
But although Matsuda said this, he actually felt that Mr. Akai's temperament was not like that of an ordinary person. As to whether he was a good person or not, it depended on the results of the investigation.
"Deduct wages? What's going on?" Inspector Megure caught the suspicious point and looked at Akai Shuichi inquiringly.
Inspector Megure suspected that he might have been influenced by Kaeya's words just now, and suddenly felt that Akai Shuichi had become more suspicious.
Conan looked at Officer Megure and Officer Matsuda looking at Mr. Akai with suspicion, and couldn't help feeling anxious, wondering if Kaia was planning to frame Mr. Akai.
Meeting Akai Shuichi's calm gaze, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and decided to hurry up and look for clues.
"It was Takano who saw the look on this man's face and thought he was trying to steal his limelight, so he found an excuse to teach him a lesson. Also, originally the tree was going to be moved by two people, but Takano deliberately made things difficult for him and made him be the only one responsible." Nakamura Masato saw that Akai Shuichi was becoming more suspicious, so in order to reduce his own suspicion, he spoke first and exaggerated what had happened before.
"So he must be holding a grudge against Takano for this reason, and that's why he wants to hurt Takano." Masato Nakamura also pushed the blame on Shuichi Akai.
At this time, Takano Hideki, who was standing by and listening, digested the information he had just heard, and immediately pointed his finger at Akai Shuichi, angrily accusing, "Okay, I knew the criminal was you, you don't look like a good person at first glance, Nakamura is right, you must be holding a grudge against me."
Hideki Takano didn't believe that what happened today was done by his friends and followers. After all, they had a good relationship and no conflicts. It would not be good for them to hurt him.
Then the only suspect left is this man whom he disliked from the first sight.
Yes, that's right, it must be him!
Hideki Kono firmly believed in his own conclusion.
"Officer, come quickly, arrest him, the criminal must be him." Takano Hideki turned around and shouted at Officer Megure. After shouting, he couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "Really, it's all his fault. He ruined my confession scene. Otherwise, my angel would have promised me."
Sonoko, who was beside him, heard Takano's complaint and rolled her eyes. She thought that he was still unable to read people's faces as usual. Did Xia Xi have an expression as if she was accepting the confession?
But Sonoko had no intention of reminding Takano. Takano didn't have any bad intentions. Let him hit the wall a few more times from Xia Xi and learn a few more lessons. Maybe he would make some progress.
Conan stared in amazement as the suspects and the victim teamed up to almost convict Mr. Akai.
It was only after Inspector Megure's persuasion that Hideki Takano reluctantly accepted that Shuichi Akai was just a suspect, but he was not sure whether he was the one who did it.
But judging from Hideki Takano's expression, he obviously still insisted on his point of view, and only stopped arguing to give face to the police.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Inspector Megure felt that since no one was hurt this time, why was it more troublesome than previous crime scenes?
