Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Although we cannot interfere in police cases, the daily cases of the Metropolitan Police Department cannot be relaxed and must continue to be deepened."

After Toshiro Odagiri finished speaking as his immediate superior, Officer Megure gathered his subordinates together and took advantage of the banquet at the Shiratori family to start the follow-up work of the Search Section 1.

"The most troublesome thing is our place."

Holding their chests, Matsuda Jinpei and Shiratori Rensaburo both sighed: "I don't know why, the chief asked the Criminal Department to thoroughly investigate previous cases. Recently, our heads have become big."

The criminal police produces talented people. Unlike several other departments, as long as they can solve a major case that shocks the country, promotion is sometimes easy.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you are in the professional group, not the non-professional group.

Half of the cases that Matsuda Jinpei and his two men have been reviewing recently are cases that Officer Megure has cracked before. Considering that Kudo Yusaku, Kudo Shinichi and Mouri Kogoro have been on the scene to assist, the problem of misjudgment and miscarriage still exists. It's barely bearable.

But it is different for those old people who have already held high positions in various local police headquarters in Japan. Most of them want to quickly close the case, and their arrests are based on subjective judgment. Many cases can be turned over.

If it is revealed that many of the prisoners they arrested in the past were wrongly convicted, it is absolutely inevitable that they will be forced to resign.

"Many people have found us recently through connections, Manager Memu."

Seeing that the heads of other departments had wisely moved away, Shiratori could finally speak the truth.

"I really don't understand how people like this joined the police in the first place. They should have sworn an oath to Sakura!"

"Shiratori." Matsuda Jinpei rubbed his chicken coop: "I told you a long time ago, there are not many good people in the top management, so you should punch them in the face."

"I didn't realize that you wanted to beat me so much."

Officer Megure raised his eyebrows and scanned Matsuda Jinpei as if he were looking at an idiot.

"Based on what you said, it seems that I have to think carefully about whether I should give Sato's hand to you at the wedding."

Ignoring the choked look of Matsuda Jinpei, Officer Megure hesitated: "First check out my cases in the past few years, and let those people's cases go."

"Is that it?! Because of their mistakes, many innocent people are sitting in jail!"

Shiratori Rensaburo seemed to have forgotten that this was his sister's wedding: "This is not like Officer Megure's speech at all. Have you changed too?"

"Shiratori! Calm down." Miwako Sato couldn't stand listening any more: "The management officer doesn't want this either, but no matter what, he doesn't do it just by slapping his head."

After a moment of silence, Shiratori Rensaburo said silently: "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Megure Thirteen waved his hand: "But while you two are solving the case, Sato-kun, I have something else to ask you."

"Me?" Miwako Sato nodded.

"The two of them were talking about this just now, and I suddenly thought of Narazawaji."

"He was killed by terrorists today, right?" Fortunately, both of them were members of the First Investigation Division, and Sato Miwako immediately remembered his appearance.

"Although he is no longer in the third department, I have asked him about the cases involved in the investigation, and he had his police manual in his hand before he died."

"Do you suspect that those local high-level officials hired killers to kill them?" Matsuda Jinpei's face also became serious.

"So I hope that you, Sato, can secretly investigate the cases related to Narazawaji while the two of them are dealing with those guys. I will also give you the extra gun I applied for."

Officer Megure took out a key from his pocket and handed it over: "If you are careful, those guys won't notice you, so it should be very safe." "I understand."

The police who searched the first class finally dispersed. After seeing his wife, Megure Thirteen took her to talk to his old friend Dove Jing writer, while Takagi Wataru formed a duo with Chiba as usual, wandering around the banquet hall. , they would occasionally joke when meeting acquaintances, but only the former love triangle remained in place.

"It's great that you're getting married."

Officer Shiratori seemed to remember that he had mistaken Sato Miwako for his first love, and when he thought about it, he felt embarrassed and wanted to hit the wall.

With a snort, Matsuda Jinpei put his arms around Sato Miwako's waist, but was slapped down by his fiancée.

"Tonight, these police officers will ask you, Officer Shiratiao, to send them back."

"That's for sure. If they were killed because they attended the White Bird Group's banquet, I would never be able to forgive myself."

Shiratori and Matsuda Jinpei looked at each other, and both looked at Sato Miwako: "Where do you plan to start investigating?"

"It would be great if we could take a look at all the records related to these seventeen police officers."

Sato Miwako put forward her own idea, which was undoubtedly rejected by Matsuda Jinpei and Shiratori.

"You need to leave your name when borrowing cases, and they can only be viewed in the file area. The monitoring system has always maintained stable operation."

Matsuda said regretfully: "It would be fine if it was before the replacement of the commander. The current commander has updated the equipment, and each floor of the Metropolitan Police Department has independent power supply. It is impossible to take advantage of the chaos."

"Then we can only start with the police within our first division." Sato nodded: "Have you ever seen the investigation cases involving Narazawaji?"

"Yes, only one."

Shiratori Rensaburo slowly looked at his immediate superior: "It was the murder of Ninoho who was ordered by Minister Odagiri to be put on the inventory list. It was also because of this that Manager Megure called Narazawaji for questioning."

"Ninoho? That's not..."

Of course, Matsuda Jinpei knew that this was a case three years ago. I don’t know why, but the superiors ordered the now deceased police officer Tomonari to take Narazawaji, Sato Miwako and Matsuda Jinpei to track Odagiri Toshiro’s son, as if they were suspicious of him. Killed Ninoho who was suspected of committing suicide.

"It should not be the reason for this case. Other police officers have not participated in any cases related to Narazawaji."

Sato Miwako sighed again: "But no matter what, I'll go check it out."

The first person to be killed today was Narazaharu. At least as a colleague, although he could not do much to avenge him, he could still complete his unfinished investigation work.

"Speaking of which, my attending doctor is an alumnus of the same class as Ninoyasu. Do you want to talk to him about the situation?"

"Really? That would be great."

Taking out a notepad from his bag, Officer Sato walked towards the psychiatrist while staring at Kyousuke Futo.

"Mr. Shiratori, tonight's activities are different from what I expected."

Kyousuke Futo stiffened for a moment when he saw Sato, then quickly returned to normal: "I thought it was just an ordinary wedding, who is this?"

"My colleague is also an expert in the First Investigation Division, he is very famous."

"That's it..." (End of Chapter)
