Chapter 602: I don't understand but I respect you
Yuya frowned and took a quick look at the body. The time of death could not have been more than 30 minutes. Judging from the wound marks, he was beaten to death with a blunt object.
At the same time, in order to avoid being splashed with blood, the murderer also covered the deceased with a suit.
Yuya stood up and walked to the door. He looked at the guests who wanted to see the excitement but were afraid of the corpse, and said in a deep voice: "Sorry, please don't leave this karaoke bar before the police arrive. And if you can, don't walk around casually."
A gray-haired old man asked cautiously, "Is there really a dead person in there? And who are you? Why... do you look so experienced?"
Yuya glanced at him and said calmly, "My name is Yuya Kamiya, and I'm a detective."
"Detective?" The guests looked at each other, and after knowing Yuya's identity, no one raised any objections.
In the world of science, detectives still have a certain say.
While waiting, Youya took a quick look.
The private room where the deceased was located was located at the corner of the karaoke shop. It could not be seen from the counter. On the other side of the corner was the restroom and a vending machine.
Soon, the hardworking Inspector Megure arrived with his men.
He saw Youya and greeted him helplessly: "Brother Kamiya, we meet again."
Yuya smiled awkwardly: "Mio and the others were singing here and we happened to run into each other..."
"Okay, I get it," Inspector Megure interrupted Yuya, "So what was the situation at the scene? You should have checked it out roughly, right?"
Yuya nodded slightly and recounted what he had discovered.
The forensic officer began a detailed investigation of the room and soon found a small camera in the pocket of the deceased, an old-fashioned camera that used film.
After Inspector Megure handed the camera to his men to develop the photos, he looked at the waiter and said, "So, you were the first person to discover it?"
The waiter nodded quickly.
“Did the deceased have any other companions?”
The waiter shook his head. “No, he came alone. But he asked me to do something very strange. He asked me to notify him when those high school students who brought their children came out.”
"Huh?" Mao Lilan and the others showed surprised expressions.
Yuya and Conan looked at each other and nodded slightly. It turned out that this person was following them, but it was not known which one of them he was following.
Perhaps the answer lies in that camera.
Inspector Megure also asked in confusion: "Why is that?"
The waiter explained: "He said that when he came here before, he left something in their room, and he wanted to go in and look for it after they left."
Inspector Megure asked, "Then do you know what he is looking for?"
The waiter shook his head: "I don't know. I was just about to tell him that when they were about to leave, I found out..."
Conan whispered to Yuya, "It seems that he intends to continue following us after we leave, to monitor and protect one of us? Of course, the premise is that he is indeed an FBI agent."
"No." Yuya whispered.
Conan was stunned: "How can you be so sure?"
Yuya rolled his eyes. "I just secretly took a picture of this person and sent it to Mr. James. He said that there is no such person among the investigators who came this time, so this person is most likely not sent by the FBI to track and protect Hondou Eisuke."
James is the commander-in-chief of the FBI this time. Since he said that this person is not from the FBI, then he is definitely not from the FBI.
Conan's expression froze: "Could it be someone from the organization?"
He suddenly remembered how flustered Hondou Eisuke was when he came back, and couldn't help but guess: "Hondou was so flustered when he came back just now, could it be that he..."
Youye touched his chin and said, "I don't think so. Although this guy is a bit cunning, he is not deep. Besides, I am here too... Do you think he looks like someone who can kill someone?"
Hondou Eisuke knew that Yuya had a connection with the FBI, so he could have just come back for help instead of taking the risk of killing someone himself.
Conan thought about Hondou Eisuke's style of doing things and showed a somewhat speechless expression: "It's indeed not like..."
Rather than believing that he can kill people, it is more reliable to believe that he passed the bad luck to this man and let him die unlucky.
On this side, Takagi Wataru was asking the waiter about the people coming in and out before and after the incident.
The waiter said that no guests had left. Yuya and his companions entered box No. 3, while the deceased entered box No. 5.
And after that, a few guests came in to sing.
First, the guests with darker skin entered box 4, the guests who entered the wrong box and ended up in box 2 were in box 1, and the older guests with gray hair were in box .
Youye said in a deep voice: "No guests left? That means..."
Inspector Megure's tone was a little angry: "How dare the murderer stay here after killing someone?"
"What?" Everyone showed surprised expressions, and a few outsiders looked at each other suspiciously.
"Well, please tell us your names."
First was the guest in Room 2 who walked into the wrong box, his name was Kyota Honma; then there was the burly man who had been bumped into by Kyota Honma, the guest in Room 4, Kenji Amoto; and the older guest in Room 1, Kunio Tamai.
"Wait a minute," Youye suddenly raised his hand and asked the waiter, "Did you just say guests with dark skin?" He glanced at the people present and saw that there was no one with dark skin.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, with Mr. Kenji Arimoto."
Arimoto Kenji said calmly: "Yes, the man is resting on the sofa in the box." Then he opened the door of the box.
There was indeed a person with a slightly darker complexion lying on the sofa, and he sat up when he heard Yuan Kenzhi's voice.
Arimoto Kenji hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, don't get up yet."
"I'm sorry." The man touched his neck and said in a hoarse voice.
Takagi Shigeru leaned over to take a look and said, "The voice seems to be very hoarse."
Arimoto Kenji said: "Yeah, he insisted on singing even though he had a cold, and it made his condition worse."
He looked at Takagi Wataru and said, "But this guy has been in the box the whole time, so he definitely has nothing to do with this matter."
Takagi Wataru said hesitantly: "But there is no evidence yet..."
"We don't need any evidence, right? This guy has never left the box." You Yuan Kenzhi said dissatisfiedly.
At this time, Mao Lilan suddenly noticed that Hondou Eisuke's face looked even uglier, almost as white as snow, and asked worriedly: "Hondou, are you okay? Your face looks even uglier than before."
Suzuki Sonoko looked at him suspiciously and asked, "I say, could it be you who did this?"
"I, I didn't do it!" Hondou Eisuke argued loudly: "I just saw..."
"What did you see?" Suzuki Sonoko narrowed her eyes.
Yuya also looked over: "Hondou-san, have you seen the murderer?"
“No,” Hondou Eisuke waved his hands repeatedly, then pointed at Arimoto Kenji and said tremblingly, “I just accidentally walked into their box, and then I saw... I saw..."
"What did you see?" Youye frowned slightly. What's wrong with this kid? What did he see? He can't even speak clearly.
Hondou Eisuke's fingers and body were trembling, and his expression was a little frightened, as if he had really seen something extremely terrifying: "I saw that person and the person in the room... were... were... kissing!"
"Eh?" Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko let out sharp cries.
Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment, her expression changed slightly, and she hid behind Yuya without leaving a trace.
"W, what?" Conan's face suddenly changed and he took a few steps back in horror.
Yuya's eyebrows jumped: If he had seen correctly, the two guests in this box were both... men, right? He didn't understand but he respected it.
He reached out and held Miyano Shiho's soft little hand to soothe his irritated heart.
At the same time, he said: "Mr. Bentang, this is your fault... You can't disturb others casually..."
Arimoto Kenji looked at the high school students and children and smiled contemptuously: "Isn't this too exciting for the little kids?"
Takagi Wataru and Inspector Megure also looked shocked.
Takagi Wataru stammered, "No, no, this has nothing to do with whether it's a child or not..."
"Ah?" Arimoto Kenji widened his eyes in dissatisfaction, "Why? Who said we can't kiss in a karaoke room?"
"Ah!" Takagi Shigeru waved his hands in panic, "It would be fine if it was just an ordinary couple, but it's no wonder that you two grown men would scare others like this, right?"
"Ah? What did you say?" Arimoto Kenji's eyes widened even more, and he almost jumped onto Takagi Wataru's face.
Compared to Takagi Wataru, Inspector Megure seemed to have more experience. He laughed dryly and said, "I can understand that..." After all, he was a senior police inspector who had seen a lot of scenes and had a strong ability to accept things.
Just then, the darker-skinned man in the room came out.
She stared at Takagi Wataru and Inspector Megure and shouted in a hoarse voice: "How rude! Wadashi is a woman!"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"Wow, Darcy?" Everyone was stunned. They looked at this person who had a similar figure to Kenji Arimoto and cool short yellow hair. Although the voice was a little hoarse, it was obvious that she was a woman. They couldn't help but look dazed.
Arimoto Kenji explained: "She also works out like me, so it's normal for her to make a mistake."
There was a hint of smile in his tone when he spoke, and it was obvious that he was used to encountering such things frequently.
"Oh, I see. I'm so sorry..." Takagi Wataru apologized quickly.
You Yuan Kenzhi waved his hand nonchalantly, and there was a hint of smile in his tone when he spoke. It was obvious that he was used to encountering such things frequently.
Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's how it is, that's great..." She, like Suzuki Sonoko, thought that it was Hondou Eisuke who killed the person.
