Conan: The Mechanic

At 2:55, next to the lake below Satsuki-do, Chiba and Kudo Shinichi stood beside a stone, watching what the plainclothes policemen were finally packing.

"President Achiha actually called you out alone, but didn't inform us." Looking at the calm lake again, Kudo Shinichi pouted. "This guy... why exactly?"

"Maybe you think that if it was the two of you, it would probably stop him and prevent him from committing suicide, right?" Qian Yu shrugged.

"Speaking of this, I want to ask you, why didn't you stop him?" Kudo Shinichi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the non-professional detective beside him. "Even if he is prosecuted, he is likely to be placed on a life sentence or something. Even if it is a death sentence, he still has at least 5 years to live. During this period, he is likely to go back and revise his confession, and shift the responsibility. To Mrs. Satsuki. In this case, the prosecution has no evidence, and finally either reached a plea agreement, or there is insufficient evidence and can only investigate a murder case, and the final possible sentence may only be 13-20 years. , the court has given a death sentence, and such a sensitive sentencing result cannot be approved by the Minister of Justice. President Azhibo is still young, so as long as he reforms himself in prison, he can still..."

"He can still live, right?" Chiba glanced at Kudo Shin. "But whether it is President Achiha, or the family members of the deceased Nagoro Shikao or Yajima Toshiya, is it too funny that these two murder cases are concluded with one result without evidence?

"You and I are not qualified to judge his crimes, only the law can..."

"What we are discussing here is how he can get his inner relief and how to comfort the family of the deceased," Qian Yu turned his attention to the police officers who were about to close the team. "He needs to be responsible for the lives of two people... Seriously, do you believe that after 20 years of reform in prison, he will be able to forget about his murder? Do you think that after 20 years of reform in prison, family members will Will you be comforted? President Azhibo, there is no doubt that you are remorseful for the crimes you have committed. Do you really think that in just 20 years, you can heal the scars of the murderer himself, or the family members of the victims, or any of them. Yet?

"What's more, I didn't judge his crime, I just didn't mind my own business, I just stood in the identity of a high school student to do the police business. If you want to criticize me, you should save it. I really have the time to blame. In my case, I should improve my reasoning ability, and try not to wait for the prisoners to commit suicide next time before arresting them."

"Well, you have your own ideas after all, and it's too late to say anything..." Kudo Shinichi could only finally turn all his thoughts into a long sigh. "Stop talking about this, let's change to another troublesome topic - now that the case is closed, how are we going to tell Hattori?"

"Just say what you want to say," Qianyu didn't respond. "Could he still have..."

"Have you forgotten what day should be today?" Kudo Shinichi quickly reminded. "If Toyama-san wins the competition today, she will tell Hattori..."

"Ah, yes..." Chiyu immediately realized the problem. "If he was told that the case ended in this way, I'm afraid Hattori wouldn't have the heart to accept Toyama-san's confession, right?"

"So what should we do, do we need to hide it from him?" Kudo Shinichi had a bitter look on his face. "Although this is not good, I always feel that it would be better to destroy such a perfect confession atmosphere..."

"Would you like to make up a lie, such as that Azhiha has already subdued or something..." Qianyu sighed heavily, and then proposed an even more outrageous plan.

However, when they were discussing these matters, there was a voice behind them that made them all feel captured on the spot.

"Anyway, no matter what you want to do," this voice made both Chiba and Kudo Shinichi look bad. "I know it all by now."

"Ah..." Chiyu turned her head and looked at Hattori Heiji with an unnatural expression. "You... when did you come?"

"Just now, the hidden meaning of Kudo's body movement when he went out was capital unease." Hattori Heiji looked at Kudo Shinichi, who was a little embarrassed. "Then I came out and bumped into a few policemen from Kyoto who had known me before. Just ask a little and I'll know. Anyway, in short..."

Speaking of which, Hattori Heiji's expression turned positive.

"We failed, right?"

"..." Chiba's expression darkened slightly, and then she glanced in the direction of Kudo Shinichi. "What do you think?"

"Although I want to hold on, but..." Kudo Shinichi also showed a bitter expression. "Anyway... I can't call it a success. In contrast, it's a little unwilling to call it a failure, but it would be too self-righteous to not call it that."

The three faced each other, standing in a somewhat dull atmosphere.

"Recently, my family has also consciously exposed me to some more difficult cases~www.readwn.com~ Hattori Heiji said. "You know, I used to be involved in some civil investigations and other commissions. , even if there is a case, it is often the kind that is mainly based on physical strength with criminals.

"But during this time, I have basically experienced all the difficult and miscellaneous cases that the Osaka Police Headquarters can encounter, and I have also come into contact with a lot of unsolved cases in the forensic department.

"You're welcome, all I see is despair."

"I've come across similar things," Chiba shrugged. "After spending more time at the most difficult places for the police, we will find that the cases we usually come into contact with are all pediatric cases, and the cases that can really stop the investigation of the Metropolitan Police Department are the same for us, even more profound. A towering impenetrable wall.

"After switching from forensics to working with you in the detective industry, I probably have a feeling. The more I want to challenge the puzzles and tricks that are buried in suspense, I will find that the role of an ordinary detective is limited. ——Are policemen really less than detectives? It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is just a group of people who are suitable for criminal police and have not yet been admitted to the civil service to join the professional group. Are those ten years and two years old? After more than ten years of unsolved cases, is there really one less detective who is not very bright? What they lack is more manpower, more equipment, and better science and technology.

"With all due respect, if the detective's role is limited to those civil investigations, that's perfectly fine, but if you want to focus on getting involved in criminals like you, and also want to be a person who can really do something else People who can't do things...it can be difficult, and the result of trying hard can be nothing."
