The Advent of the Infinite King

Mori Kogoro said loudly: "What are you talking about? If we do this, the seniors will..."

All of a sudden, there was a "bang", before the words were finished, they were interrupted by a sudden gunshot.

After a brief shock, Mao Lilan looked at his father, "Dad?"

Mori Kogoro said: "Senior didn't carry a gun at all, so it's the other party..."

There was no time to think about it, and the three of them ran to the warehouse together.

Inside the warehouse, Katsutoshi Teraoka stood motionless in the center, seemingly completely stunned.

And at his feet, lay a middle-aged man in a light green suit, probably Matsuyama, with a pistol in his hand, who looked dead, and a blue travel bag beside him.

"Senior..."

Ten minutes later, police officer Megure brought people to the scene.

"So when you were trying to persuade Matsuyama to surrender, Matsuyama suddenly pulled out his pistol and forced you to hand over the cash and credit card to him, right?" Officer Megure recorded Katsutoshi Teraoka's statement.

"Yes." Teraoka Katsutoshi nodded and said, "It seems that he has already planned to fly away from the beginning."

He glanced at the travel bag that the police officer was checking, and continued: "I told him that even if he did this, he would not be able to escape legal sanctions, so he should have a good talk with me."

"Then I put my hands up, approached him slowly, told him to let his guard down, and then looked for an opportunity to fly up to him. When I tried to grab his pistol, the pistol suddenly went off."

"It was an accident!" Mori Kogoro stepped forward suddenly and said, "It went off suddenly, Officer Megure, this is an unfortunate accident."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Officer Megure ignored Mori Kogoro and continued to ask Teraoka Katsutoshi, "What's the name of the person who was killed by Matsuyama?"

"I don't know his name." Katsutoshi Teraoka said, "He just said he was a guest who went to gamble."

Officer Meguro said, "What kind of relationship do you have with this Matsuyama?"

Mori Kogoro hurriedly said: "That kid has always wanted to wash his hands and quit. He talked to our senior Teraoka several times before, so my senior also trusts him, so I went to see him alone."

Officer Megure looked helplessly at Kogoro Mori, as if to say that I am not giving you a statement.

"I didn't expect the fact to be completely different from this." Teraoka Katsutoshi blamed himself: "All of this should be regarded as my responsibility. I am too naive for this kind of thing to happen."

"Senior..."

Xie Chen pursed his lips, and he remembered the slight noise when Katsutoshi Teraoka got into the car.

After the scene was dealt with, in the afternoon, Police Officer Megure returned to the detective agency with Mori Kogoro and sat down on the sofa.

"I've read the news reports in the newspapers, and everything is clear." Police officer Mumu picked up the tea brought by Mao Lilan and said, "The man Songshan killed was indeed a gambling guest."

Mori Kogoro said: "The murder happened around eight o'clock the night before yesterday. I heard that the murder weapon was not a pistol, but a dagger."

"That's right." Police Officer Meguro put down his teacup, "I haven't found out why he didn't use a pistol to commit the murder, but it seems that this murder case is a dispute caused by the victim's gambling loss."

Mori Kogoro leaned forward, "Then about my Teraoka-senpai's disposition..."

Officer Mumu took a sip of tea and said, "The formal verdict will have to wait until later, but he went to see Matsuyama on his own. Although it was a little unexpected, he still indirectly killed the other party."

Having said that, he sighed, "I think he should lose a few months of salary."

"That's it..." Mori Kogoro's tense nerves finally relaxed.

Xie Chen thought in his heart: From this point of view, no one doubts that this murder was committed by Teraoka Katsutoshi. "

"But about this accident." Police Officer Meguro said: "There is one thing we haven't disclosed to the media reporters, that is, we found the fingerprints of three people on the pistol."

"Three people?" Moori Kogoro and Xie Chen were a little surprised.

"One of them is Matsuyama, and the other is the fingerprint of police officer Teraoka. According to our judgment, there will be Mr. Teraoka's fingerprint on it, which should have been touched by his gun Matsuyama's gun. We don't know who the third fingerprint is. .”

"Maybe it's a member of the violent organization that Matsuyama belongs to." Mori Kogoro said.

"No." Police Officer Meguro shook his head, "It's not the team member's. We have checked the fingerprints of all the team members."

Mori Kogoro said: "Then it might be someone who sells pistols."

Police officer Mu Mu folded his arms and said, "We have also imagined this line, but we couldn't find any criminal record that matches this fingerprint."

"Officer Megure." Xie Chen said suddenly, "You told Mr. Teraoka about the fingerprints on the pistol. What kind of expression did he have at that time?"

"Expression?" Officer Meguro said: "If you want to describe it, it should be said that the expression is very surprised."

Xie Chen smiled lightly, as if he had understood everything.

The next night, someone called Teraoka's house.

Katsutoshi Teraoka, who was reading a newspaper, walked over to pick it up, "Hello, I'm Katsutoshi Teraoka, Police Officer Megure."

At the same time, Xie Chen said in the voice of a police officer at the phone booth: "I still have something I want to talk to you about the accident at noon yesterday."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Chen called the detective agency again with the voice of police officer Megure, and then called the police station with the voice of Kogoro Mouri...

Half an hour later, I was in a taxi heading to Teraoka's house.

Sitting in the back seat, Mori Kogoro said, "But it's already so late, and we're required to go to Teraoka-senpai's house. Unexpectedly, Police Officer Megure is really inaccurate in doing things."

Mao Lilan also said: "And he wants me to go with Xie Chen, what happened?"

Ten minutes later, they arrived at Teraoka's house, and Police Officer Megure hadn't arrived yet.
