Chapter 192 The unexpected person
Chapter 193: Unexpected Person

"Strange, why hasn't Kaoru come back yet?" Conan said to himself in the room with a puzzled look on his face. Yes, it has been almost two hours since he called Xiaolan. After the call, Conan had washed up and changed into pajamas, but he hadn't seen Kaoru come back in such a long time. So Conan couldn't help it and went to the office downstairs. After opening the door, he didn't see Xiaolan and Kaoru talking, but Xiaolan alone cleaning up two tea cups on the table that were still warm.

"Sister Xiaolan, what are you doing?" Conan wondered. Is there anyone visiting at this time?
"Hey? Conan, are you still awake?" Xiaolan said as she tidied the table. "Put away the tea set. Xiaoxun's mother came to visit and took Xiaoxun home."

"What?!" Conan's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Yeah, it's a pity that Conan you didn't see that Xiaoxun's mother is such a beautiful lady~" Xiaolan looked longing.

"That's a shame." Conan said, pretending to be calm. "Well, I'll go back to sleep."

"Well, good night, Conan." Xiaolan didn't doubt anything, but just smiled softly at Conan.

"Well, good night, Xiaolan." After saying that, Conan quickly ran back to the room. After closing the door, a phone call came.

"Moshi Moshi, what's wrong, Conan?" My unscrupulous voice came from the other side of the phone.

"You're still asking what happened and where you went!" Conan said dissatisfiedly.

"Investigate the case, what else?" I smiled. "Didn't we make a bet? If you find the criminal first, I will stop. If I find the criminal first, you can't restrict my freedom."

"Have you returned to your intelligence boss?" Conan frowned.

"How is that possible? It's such a long distance, I don't have time to go there. I just want to leave for a while and investigate the case myself." I joked. "Oh, of course, I will also fulfill my promise and will not do anything that would violate the bet, so you can investigate without worry. But you also have to be careful, the speed of my investigation alone is several times faster than yours."

"You..." Conan was furious.

"Okay, I'll hang up if there's nothing else. Go to bed early, Mr. Detective." After saying that, I hung up the phone without giving Conan a chance to speak, and at the same time, I lay down next to Jingliu and stretched lazily.

"Haaa... Kudo is such a jerk." I yawned helplessly. "Okay, Sister Shizuka, I have to get busy. Don't play anymore... wuwuwu."

"No~ Let me hold you for a bit longer~" Jingliu seemed to be unable to let go of the smaller me. He kept caressing me in his arms. Maybe it was because we hadn't seen each other for too long.

A few minutes later, I finally succeeded in breaking free from Jingliu's arms. I went downstairs and saw the three Ningxue sisters sitting in front of three computers, busy at work.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work." Looking at the busy figures of the three people, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. After returning home with Jingliu and the others, I went upstairs to take a shower, and the others also prepared my midnight snack. After that, I went upstairs to rest with Jingliu, and I arranged for the three sisters of the Ning family to sort out some data. If Conan hadn't called me suddenly, I would probably have slept a little longer. "How is it? Did you find it?"

"Yes." Ningxue replied. "We hacked into the police station's database through an informant at the Beihua Police Station and retrieved information about Murakami from the archives." Ningxue retrieved a series of data about Murakami. "Murakami was arrested for murder ten years ago. He served well in prison and did not violate any discipline. Everything was normal."

"In other words, you really repent and reform?" I raised my eyebrows.

"You could say that," Ning Xue thought. "It is said that the murder case was also a mistake he made in a fit of rage, and the hostage-taking incident was caused by fear. During the last period of his sentence, he hoped many times to find Maori Kogoro and apologize to him in person. Unfortunately, Maori Kogoro had already resigned by then."

"Hmm..." After listening to Ningxue's words, I was thoughtful. It seems that Murakami does not hate his father, but is grateful to him. Of course, this does not exclude the fact that Murakami is very tolerant, but if he is so tolerant, how could he be so angry that year? If it is the former, where did he go after he was released from prison? Why would someone want to frame him? But if this is really the case, the attack on my father, mother, Inspector Megure, and Dr. Agasa can be explained. The criminal this time really just wanted to kill a few of the thirteen people. The others are just a cover.

It was early in the morning, the night was deep, even the chirping of insects gradually faded away. However, this was a very suitable time for sleeping, but I did not rest. Instead, I sat in front of the computer and kept flipping through the records of my mother's recent visits.

"Yue'er, Shuang'er, you two should go to sleep first." After reading a paragraph of information, I exhaled lightly. I had been looking through it for about two hours, but unfortunately there was not much progress, and there was no need to ask Ningyue and the others anything. So I let them rest. "Axue, help me call the informant at the Mihua Police Station and tell him that I need to sneak into the police station in half an hour, and ask him to help me clear the obstacles as much as possible."

"Yes, Mr. Mingya." Ningxue responded, "It's so late, are you still going out?"

"Ah, I don't have much time. I need to check some things quickly."

"Yes, do you need me to follow you?"

"No, I'm fine on my own. You can go and rest after we contact you. You've been up all night. You must be tired." I smiled at Ningxue. "When you go upstairs later, remember to go into my room and cover Jingliu with the quilt. I guess the girl is sleeping soundly now."

"Puchi." Ningxue laughed softly, then bowed slightly and turned away.

After Ningxue left, I printed out the roughly useful data I had sorted out, then changed my clothes, walked out of the room, swiped the car out of the necklace, and drove towards the police station. I parked the car in a corner near the police station. Then I walked towards the door. Although I asked someone to help clear the obstacles as much as possible, it was better to check the surroundings before going in, in case I really ran into trouble.

"Mr. Mingya?" I was thinking, before I even reached the door. A young man in a suit called me. I looked up and saw the man looking at me with a questioning look on his face. "Excuse me, are you Mr. Mingya?"

I frowned slightly. The man in front of me looked to be about 27 or 28 years old. Although he was confused, he was more alert. After thinking about it, I felt relieved. "Yes, are you the person in the police station that Ningxue contacted?"

"Yes, hello Mr. Mingya. I am an informant in the police station under the command of the boss Skinny Wolf. My name is Liu Yuxin (thank you for the guest appearance by Liu Yuxin)." After knowing my identity, the police officer named Liu Yuxin also let down his guard.

"Oh, okay, thank you for your hard work." I nodded to him. "But seeing that you can stand here and wait for me, have you solved all the problems in the police station?"

"No, Mr. Mingya. It's early morning now, and there aren't many people on night duty at the police station. In addition, Officer Megure and Officer Shiratori are out on duty. Since my superiors are not here, I can be more free."

"Oh? What about these surveillance cameras?" I smiled.

"It just so happens that I am the person in charge of the monitoring department." Liu Yuxin also smiled at me. "Mr. Mingya, I wonder what you want to check?"

"Are you the head of the surveillance department?" I was surprised.

"Um... yes." Liu Yuxin paused and replied.

"What a coincidence! I just wanted to check some surveillance records." I licked my lips and smiled. "Lead the way. Let's first check the surveillance footage of Murakami Jō after he was released from prison last week. Then we'll follow the clues and find out more."

"Yes."

Although many rooms in the police station have lights on at night, there are very few people actually working inside. Following Liu Yuxin all the way to the monitoring room, it was actually empty. It turned out that Liu Yu and another police officer were supposed to be on duty today's night shift, but after receiving my order from Ningxue, Liu Yu found a way to get rid of his colleagues and left himself alone.

"Mr. Mingya, do we want to check the surveillance footage of Murakami Takeshi when he was released from prison?" Liu Yu asked me.

"Well, check the surveillance records of Murakami when he was released from prison. I hope to find out his whereabouts after he was released from prison." After thinking about it, I spoke.

"Yes." Liu Yu nodded. He started the operation, and soon, the picture of that day was called up. After fast forwarding for a while, Murakami appeared in front of me.

"Mr. Mingya, Murakami appears." Seeing the person on the screen, Liu Yu reminded me.

"Well, continue broadcasting and see where he went." I kept my eyes fixed on Murakami on the screen, fearing that he would run away.

As the surveillance video played, it was seen that after Murakami walked out of the prison, he turned around and bowed slightly to the prison guard, and then walked outside.

"Can we call the traffic police's monitoring system?" Seeing Murakami gradually disappear on the screen, my brows tightened slightly.

"Okay, please wait." Liu Yu operated the computer for a while, and soon, a road surveillance screen not far from the prison appeared in front of me. I adjusted the time to the time when Murakami was released from prison, and we continued to watch it. Soon, Murakami appeared in our field of vision again. After walking for a while, Murakami stopped at the bus stop. After a while, Murakami got on a bus and left.

"This is troublesome." Liu Yu scratched his head. "If we get on the bus, we can only investigate one stop at a time."

"No, don't bother." I said as I zoomed in on the monitor. "Just locate this station." Looking at the magnified screen, I saw the station line prompts on the platform, and one of the stations was very obvious. Rice Flower Park.

"Yes." After receiving my order, Liu Yu directly called up the surveillance video of Beihua Park Station and pressed the fast forward button. After six buses passed, as I expected, Murakami got off at this station and walked north as soon as he got off the bus. That was the direction of my father's detective agency.

Once again, Liu Yu called up the surveillance camera of the street where the office was located and adjusted the time. A few minutes later, Murakami appeared in front of us again. He walked into the office and disappeared for a long time.

Looking at the time, it was the day we had agreed to have dinner with my mother, but when Murakami arrived at the office, my father was out playing mahjong, Xiaolan had an appointment with Sonoko to go shopping, and Conan and I went to the Aviation Museum with the children. So, Murakami was empty-handed during this time.

I stared at the screen with an expressionless face, waiting for Murakami to come out of the office. However, just as Murakami walked out of the screen, an unexpected person appeared in the screen.

"Oh?" I raised my eyebrows while staring at the person on the screen. A playful smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. "It turned out to be him? But it doesn't make sense. Although those things can be explained, it seems that this incident is not ordinary."

　ps: Actually, in Conan, this is a very big bug. The problem can be solved by adjusting the surveillance and checking fingerprints, but the police are unwilling to do it. They have to wait for several people to die before they are satisfied, and then they have to say "wow, this is the method" and so on. But it doesn't matter, otherwise how can Conan's IQ be highlighted? Let's ignore the bug and watch it. That's all.
