Chapter 624 What kind of big scene has Xiaolan never seen?

1 pm.

There is still one hour left until the final.

Hanyu Kusunoki and his group came back from dinner outside. They had just walked outside the Naniwa Central Gymnasium. The girls were still discussing which dish was more delicious when they suddenly noticed several police cars parked in front of the gymnasium.

The police also set up a cordon at the warehouse location.

"What happened? Why are there policemen here?" As the daughter of a policeman, He Ye was the first to keenly notice that something was wrong.

An ordinary case would not require so many police officers, not to mention setting up a cordon in such a high-profile manner. It is clear from the scene that the matter is not simple.

Ikebo Jinghua couldn't help but frowned. Before she could say anything, Xiaolan beside her said suddenly, "I think someone must have been killed."

"..."

Everyone: "..."

The atmosphere suddenly became much quieter, and everyone turned their heads and looked at this gentle, angelic girl with strange eyes.

How come you can point out the dead so skillfully?

Xiaolan blinked in a daze, "Is there something wrong with what I said?"

"No..." Akiba Reiko pulled the corners of her mouth, and the smile on her face was a little stiff, "But, Xiaolan, how can you be so sure that someone was killed?"

“Because I often encounter this kind of situation!”

Hearing this question, Xiaolan said it as a matter of course, with a familiar tone.

"Generally, the police will mobilize such a large force when someone is killed. Look at the policeman wearing gloves, he should be here to perform an autopsy..."

As she spoke, she pointed to a policeman who was coming out of the gymnasium with an evidence bag, apparently going to do an examination.

Reiko Akiba: “…”

The female singer knelt down to Xiaolan.

The others did the same and knelt together.

How many times must one have experienced such a situation to be able to come to such a conclusion so lightly!

In response, Hanyu Kusunoki shrugged.

I really think Xiaolan is some innocent little angel.

Xiaolan has been a police detective for thousands of episodes. She has been through wind and rain, handling cases on the scene, and has survived arson, murder, and looting. She is a strong-willed heroine.

She has seen all the cases you have seen, and she has also seen all the cases you have not seen.

Although Xiaolan is now involved in fewer cases due to her appearance, she will still go with Kogoro Mouri to handle the commissions whenever she has time to prevent her confused father from messing up the commissions.

Therefore, she has seen all kinds of big scenes and big cases!

The scene before her was child's play for her.

"I admire you!"

Everyone expressed their highest respect to Xiaolan.

Afterwards, everyone walked towards the gymnasium. As soon as they entered the gymnasium, they saw three familiar figures following the police and asking them questions.

Kogoro Mori, Conan, and Heiji Hattori.

“Everyone is here!”

Hanyu Kusunoki looked up at the sky.

Sometimes you really can’t blame Xiaolan for her bad mouth. With these three “death gods” around, it’s hard to avoid death.

"Dad, why are you here? Didn't you say you would come tomorrow?"

"Ah...Ah, Xiaolan, Hanyu, you're here. Isn't it that little brat Conan who pestered me to come here, so I came here today and watched Hanyu's game."

Kogoro Mouri punched Conan on the head, then greeted everyone.

After some conversation, everyone learned that a murder occurred in the gymnasium while they went out for lunch at noon.

The deceased was a member of the Kendo Club of Shinnai University, named Atsushi Tarumi.

"How could this happen? Has the murderer been found?" Shizuka Ikenami walked over and asked Inspector Otaki, who was in charge of the police team.

She was worried that if the case was not solved in a short time, it would affect his apprentice's competition later, which was related to the agreement between the two.

"Yes..."

Inspector Otaki, who had a scar between his eyebrows, looked at the woman in front of him and subconsciously wanted to call her "Mrs. Hattori", but then he thought of something and glanced at Hattori Heiji who was still looking for clues with Conan behind him, and quickly changed his address: "Ms. Jinghua, why are you here?"

"Master is here to watch my game."

Hanyu Kusunoki walked out from behind the girls and said with a smile, "Inspector Otaki, long time no see."

The two had met before when he first came to Osaka.

Hanyu Kusunoki still has an impression of this policeman who was very considerate and helped him stop Hattori Heiji who was about to chase Kazuha.

Inspector Otaki was even more impressed by the boy in front of him.

Because of the other party, he had the opportunity to have a phone call with his leader.

"Mr. Hanyu?"

After a brief moment of shock, Inspector Otaki's attitude changed 180 degrees. He first greeted respectfully, and then answered all the questions raised by Ikenami Shizuka in detail.

He knew the recent rumors about Ikenami Shizuka and Hattori Heizo.

However, between Hattori Heizo, the head of the headquarters, and Hanyu Kusunoki, a nobleman with such a powerful background that Congressman Matsumoto could call him personally, even a fool would know how to choose.

I didn’t hear Hanyu Kusunoki calling Ikenami Shizuka “Master”!

On the other side, Hattori Heiji and Conan also noticed the people who were talking here.

"Hey, Hattori, isn't that your mother? Why is she with that guy Hanyu Kusunoki?" Conan asked in a low voice.

Hattori Heiji snorted coldly: "It's my mother, but who knows what she was thinking, she ignored her own son's game and went to support that guy Hanyu Kusunoki."

"Uh...your mother really accepted him as her apprentice?"

"Who says it isn't?"

When this matter was mentioned, Hattori Heiji felt like a huge stone was blocking his heart and he felt uncomfortable.

His enemy actually became his mother's apprentice. Who could he turn to for justice? The key problem was that he didn't dare to ask his mother why.

He was afraid of being hacked to death...

I heard from his dad that his mom still seems to be angry about what happened last time.

"He just took some money from home, not went out to fool around. What a fool my mom is..." Hattori Heiji complained to Conan in a low voice without realizing it while carefully investigating the crime scene.

"Kudo, how on earth did the body that was originally in the second gymnasium warehouse end up in the swimming pool's locker room without anyone noticing?"

"I don't know. I don't have any clue yet. But if someone is carrying a bloody man on his back on the street, someone must have seen it. There are people eating lunch boxes at the entrance of the second hall."

"It's really a headache..."
