Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Chapter 273 Baichuanqiu: I am waiting for the murderer CD, what are you waiting for?

The system looked at the person who was forced to sit on the bench and was a little puzzled: "Host, why don't you tell others about the geisha house?"

As long as Baichuan Qiu explained the part of the situation he knew, he would definitely not be suspected by the police like he is now.

Especially regarding the suspected pimping of the geisha house, if Shirakawa Qiu doesn't say anything, it will be difficult to clear herself of certain suspicions.

Baichuan Qiu: "I don't need to prove anything. As long as the murderer continues to kill, my suspicion will naturally disappear."

Furthermore, the suspicion on him wasn't too strong originally, especially in the second case, where he deliberately left a trail of his whereabouts. So even if there were some suspicious points about him, the police should be able to rule him out quickly.

System: “Huh?”

Suddenly, the system came up with an idea: "Host, do you want to attract the police's attention and let the murderer kill a few more people?"

Once Shirakawa Ki reveals what happened in the geisha house, the police will definitely increase their vigilance and carefully investigate the situation inside the geisha house. Perhaps they will be able to find Mikata Anko soon.

And now, with Shirakawa Akane taking the blame, the police would never think that the real murderer is actually a little girl.

So... the host is an accomplice?

System: "So, the host is helping Sanfang Xingzi delay time?"

Shirakawa Akane declared, "I didn't do that. It's just that it's a rare visit to the police station, and I wanted to experience it more."

system:"……"

The host is really stubborn.

……

"Eh? Mr. Shirakawa was taken away by the police?"

Sanfang Anzi covered her mouth with her hands, looking incredulous.

"Yes, so we would like to ask Miss Anzi if she knows anything about the situation." Hattori Heiji nodded.

Mikata Anzi was silent for a moment.

She didn't expect that the police would take Mr. Shirakawa away.

After all, that person... was her accomplice in the first case, and she knew clearly that she was the real murderer in all these cases.

Anzi Sanfang's mood was extremely complicated.

So in order to clear himself of suspicion, he will definitely turn her over to the police, right?

What should she do? Her revenge hasn't been completed yet. If she were caught now, she would be so unwilling...

"Ms. Kyoko? Miss Kyoko?"

Hattori Heiji noticed that Mikata Kyoko had fallen into a strange silence, and called out to her in a somewhat strange way. Mikata Kyoko reacted in time: "Hmm?"

"Miss Xingzi, you don't look well?"

"Eh? Really?" Sanfang Anzi gathered her thoughts and said, "Sorry, I was distracted just now. Could you please repeat it again?"

"Because there are still some doubts about Mr. Shirakawa, the police are still investigating, so Conan and I also want to help investigate these three cases..."

Sanfang Xingzi had a complicated expression: "What do you want to ask me?"

Hattori Heiji: "Well, we heard that Mr. Shirakawa came to Kyoto to look for someone, so we want to know, who is that person Mr. Shirakawa is looking for? Where is she now?"

Mikata Kyoko: "...You don't know?"

Conan shook his head: "Mr. Shirakawa didn't tell us."

Mikata Anzi fell silent again.

So these two people did not doubt her.

To be precise, Mr. Shirakawa did not reveal her true identity as the murderer to others.

—The police haven’t found her yet.

Thinking of this, Sanfang Anzi felt more confident and said to the two people in front of her, "The person he is looking for is called Nagai Nako, who also worked at the geisha house. Unfortunately, at the end of last year, there was an accidental fire and she died in the fire."

Hattori Heiji and Conan were both stunned: "What? She's dead?"

Mikata Kyoko nodded: "Yes."

Conan suddenly had an idea: "That fire...did it happen at the monk's restaurant?"

If he remembered correctly, they saw traces of fire inside the restaurant when they went there, so the fire that Ms. Xingzi mentioned should be...

Sanfang Xingzi nodded: "Yes, it's right there."

Hattori Heiji also recalled the scarred corner corridor and became curious: "What kind of fire was it?"

Mikata Anzi curled her lips. "The nun is old. She forgot to turn off the stove at night, causing a kitchen fire that ignited the gas tank. The nun and Nako were the only ones in the restaurant at the time. In the end, the nun was the only one who survived, having struggled to escape the blaze. But as you can see, her burns cover 60% of her body, with her face being the most severely damaged, completely melted. So now she basically covers her skin to prevent her burns from scaring customers."

The other two took a breath of cold air—

hiss--

I felt pain just listening to it.

Conan nudged Hattori Heiji's leg with his elbow and whispered, "Hattori, it seems our guess was correct."

Since the person Mr. Shirakawa was looking for was already dead, why did he continue to go to the geisha house to look for her? Perhaps he noticed something was amiss and was using this opportunity to find evidence of a crime in the geisha house.

Hattori Heiji squatted down and whispered, "Kudo, do you think the current case is related to the fire?"

Conan remained noncommittal: "We still need further confirmation."

"Then let's go find the monk," he said.

They won't let go of any suspicion.

……

"He didn't say anything?"

Nishizaki Hayabusa was a little confused.

The person on the other side said firmly, "Yes, even if the police are suspicious of him now, he hasn't revealed anything about the geisha house."

"That's really strange."

Nishizaki Hayabusa blinked in disbelief: "Could it be that he really killed the person?"

Is it because he feels guilty that he dares not speak out?

That's not right... Even if he is really the murderer, exposing the secrets of their geisha house doesn't seem to have any impact. Instead, it can bite them in the end.

"Probably not." The other party denied it. "The police have almost completed their investigation now. He has a clear alibi for the second case, so they should let him go soon."

"I see..." Nishizaki Hayabusa fell into deep thought.

What is the purpose of this Baichuanqiu?

"So what do you need me to do next?" the other person said, "Let me be clear, Ayanokouji Fumimaro is not someone you can easily mess with. This is his case, and the most I can do is disrupt the investigation. I won't get involved in anything else."

He was just an ordinary police officer, but Ayanokouji Fumimaro was an aristocratic police officer with the support of a big family, so he didn't dare to provoke him.

"I understand. Just let him out. It will be easier to take action outside." Nishizaki Hayabusa didn't care. After all, the person in charge of Shirakawa-no-Azuma was Nishizaki Kenji, and he only cared about his "business".

As for the three dead people? Nishizaki Hayabusa didn't care. He never took these people to heart. They were just two lackeys and a worthless prostitute. He wouldn't be hurt by them.

After hanging up the phone, Nishizaki Shaku walked in.

"Dad, what's going on? When will those useless police officers catch the murderer?"
