Chapter 511: The Heart is Not Calm, the Voice Is Not Pure
Kawabe Kaneko has the same absolute pitch as her, so it is normal for her to say such things. Akiba Reiko continued, "I have said before that Kawabe and I..."
Miwako Sato interrupted her: "Oh? You two met for the first time at this press conference, right?"
Akita Reiko nodded slightly: "That's right. At that time, she told me that she planned to listen to the performances of the two deceased people, and then she would pass on her thoughts to me..."
Officer Shiratori interrupted her again: "So, since the music played by those two people is not the same tune as that played by Miss Riverside, she is unwilling to perform on stage with those two guys whose timbre is not clear, is that the reason?"
This is a common tactic used by the police.
Several people use different questions to ask repeatedly until the suspect becomes impatient, and then they find loopholes in his words.
In other words, it is to induce a confession.
This method aims to disrupt the suspect's thoughts and rhythm through constant questioning and interference, so as to discover possible contradictions and untruths.
"That should be it." The innocent Akiba Reiko was fooled and began to get impatient. "Why don't you just ask her directly? Hasn't she regained consciousness?"
Miwako Sato said, "She has recovered, but the shock from the explosion may have been too great. She no longer remembers the details before and after the incident."
Officer Shiratori also took out a part of a flute wrapped in an evidence bag from his pocket and said seriously, "This is what was dropped at the crime scene."
"It's the barrel of a flute!" When Reiko Akita saw this thing, she was obviously shocked and her red pupils widened.
The police officers present were all experienced veterans, and they could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Reiko Akiba's expression.
After exchanging glances with several of his men, Officer Megure said sternly with a cold face, "Do you know any clues, Miss Akita?"
Reiko Akiba, who was lost in thought, heard this and shook her head in panic, "No, I don't know anything. Have you asked enough?"
It’s fake, so fake, there’s definitely something wrong!
This was the common thought of the police officers present, and even Conan, who was hiding behind a chair and eavesdropping, felt so.
However, just as they were about to continue asking questions, Hanyu Nan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly said calmly: "Officer Megure, it's almost noon, do you want to go have lunch together?"
His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
Officer Megure reacted immediately and said quickly, "Master Hanyu invited me, that's fine, but I've already booked lunch for them, so I won't bother you, Master Hanyu."
After saying that, Inspector Megure turned around and left without hesitation, at the same time calling out to Sato Miwako, Inspector Shiratori, and Takagi Wataru, who were still confused and wondering when the boss had ordered lunch, and left together.
Seeing this scene, Reiko Akiba secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense nerves finally relaxed a little. Conan, on the other hand, was secretly anxious behind his chair, feeling indignant in his heart. How could he give up halfway?
However, he didn't worry for too long.
The next second, a big hand fell on his head.
Hanyu Kusunoki first put another bag on his head, then picked up the corner of his clothes and threw him directly to Ai who had been watching them silently.
"Ouch! Hanyu Kusunoki, sir!"
Conan held his head and stood up from the ground cursing, but he met Ai's cold and deathly gaze. Then his legs went soft and he sat back down.
"Gray, Grayhara..."
Conan's voice was trembling. Compared to Hanyu Kusunoki, Haibara Ai, who treated him as a guinea pig, was obviously more terrifying.
Xiao Ai glanced at Conan on the ground, then continued to stare at Hanyu Kusunoki in the distance, and said, "Go back and draw two tubes of blood yourself. I want to see you tomorrow."
Conan: "..."
A man may cry, but it’s not tears.
He really wanted to say no loudly, but Conan knew very well that if he dared to refuse today, the perverted loli from Hanyu Kusunoki's family would dare to make him lose some organs tomorrow.
I want to cry but I have no tears. If I talk too much, it will only bring tears.
........
On the other side, after throwing Conan, Hanyu Kusunoki sat back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest in a particularly happy mood.
Akiba Reiko, who was standing by, stared at the strange boy she met for the first time. She pursed her lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally suppressed the pride in her heart and said softly, "Thank you."
“You’re welcome.” Hanyu Kusunoki replied casually without even opening his eyes.
After the brief conversation, the two returned to their previous state of tacit understanding. No one mentioned what they were thanking for. Reiko Akiba silently picked up the music score on the chair and continued reading.
A few more minutes passed like this.
Suddenly, without any warning, Hanyu Kusunoki said, "It's the opposite."
Reiko Akiba, who was immersed in her own world, first uttered a puzzled nasal sound: "Hmm?" Then she slowly raised her head, and a rare cute look appeared in her pair of red eyes.
"The music score is reversed." Hanyu Kusunoki added two more words.
"Ah!" Reiko Akiba suddenly realized and quickly turned the music score to another direction, while her ten toes in her high heels curled up tightly together.
Awkward, so embarrassing!
I actually lost face like that in front of a teenager! I was so embarrassed!
At this moment, Reiko Akiba wished she could use her feet to dig a three-bedroom apartment for herself to live in. It was really too embarrassing.
After calming down a little, Reiko Akiba turned her head and secretly glanced at Hanyu Kusunoki who still had her eyes closed. She really wanted to ask, how did you know that my music score was reversed with your eyes closed.
However, she still had her dignity to save and didn't dare to ask.
Just as Reiko Akiba carefully confirmed again that her music score was not reversed, a voice that she did not want to hear for the time being came from the side again.
"Your heart is not at peace."
Hearing this, Akiba Reiko lowered her head and did not answer immediately. However, the music score in front of her bent slightly because she unconsciously tightened her hands.
After a long time, she said softly: "If the heart is calm, won't the person die?"
"Makes sense."
Hanyu Kusunoki slowly opened his eyes and looked at Akiba Reiko. His gaze was deep and calm, as if he could see through everything. "However, if your heart is not calm, your voice will not be pure."
Reiko Akiba was silent, staring quietly at the music score in her hand, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.
Damn, what this young man said makes a lot of sense!
