Chapter 1002 Hello! Mr. Tree (Vine)
Seeing the doubtful look on Fujino's face, it seemed as if he was doubting his Masashi looked serious, thinking he had discovered the truth. He said in a cold and solemn tone, "You were the only one at the crime scene. According to our investigation, you and Mr. Kikukawa had an argument before. Everyone saw it."
"In addition, you also accepted a commission from Mr. Kinoshita Yuzo. According to Mr. Kinoshita's inquiries, you should have been commissioned by Kadokawa Editing Company to crack the code. However, because of your dispute with Mr. Kikukawa and his request to kneel down and apologize, your commission was ruined."
"And the reason you came here must be because you found the floppy disk, and you came here to apologize to Mr. Kikukawa for the commission from Kadokawa Editing Company."
There was a hint of confidence in Yamamoto Masashi's tone, as if he felt that he had seen through so-called human nature: "As a young detective, you must be very concerned about your reputation. It is impossible for you to kneel in front of so many people. Even if you want to kneel, you will definitely choose to kneel in a place where there are no people."
"So, you went to Mr. Kikukawa to apologize after the banquet, but after you knelt down, Mr. Kikukawa did not choose to forgive you. Then the two of you had an argument, and you killed Mr. Kikukawa in anger. Am I right, Mr. Fujino Doji, the famous detective?"
Yamamoto Masashi looked at Fujino and asked, "What else do you want to say now?"
"puff……"
Fujino couldn't help laughing.
Yamamoto Masashi frowned: "What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, I just thought of something funny."
"What's so funny?"
Fujino: "..."
Should I say that I was thinking about my wife giving birth?
Fujino felt that this policeman was really a bit outrageous. There were a lot of people outside just now, and now I have to apologize to you...
You think I'm Mr. Tree, right?
Be careful or I'll ask He Xiangu to smash you to death with flower petals!
…………
Fujino complained in his heart, and sensing the other party's ill intentions, he retracted his smile: "So what you want to say is that I knelt down to apologize, but he didn't forgive me, so I killed him in anger?"
Masashi Yamamoto didn't say anything, but from his expression, it seemed that he had already confirmed this guess and believed it firmly.
"Officer, you have to be more reliable when solving cases, okay?" Fujino said in a deep voice, "Do you think that I can let a detective who has been through many battles and solved countless cases kill people while I wait for you to come and protect the crime scene?"
"Maybe this is just your way of covering up the truth." Yamamoto Masashi sneered, "Kill the person first, then pretend that someone else did it, say it was a murder in a closed room or something. To be honest, this almost fooled me, but don't think I don't know what you're thinking!"
Fujino: "...?"
Don’t say it, really don’t say it!
This method of killing is really awesome!
Seeing Fujino stunned for a moment, Yamamoto Masashi seemed even more proud: "Huh, I saw through your method of committing the crime, didn't I?"
"No, I just think your murder method is pretty good. If you were a detective, you could do it." Fujino shook his head with regret. "But unfortunately, I didn't kill him this time. If I really did, you wouldn't be able to find any evidence. What's more, he was already dead before I entered the room. I estimate that he died within an hour."
Yamamoto Masashi glanced at the transcript he had just received: "According to the testimonies of others, at 10 o'clock, Mr. Kikukawa had a phone call with the outside world. There were no footprints of other people outside the study, which means that you were the only one who entered this room and had a motive to kill."
"Where's the evidence?"
"Whether there is evidence or not will be determined after investigation."
Yamamoto Masashi did not give Fujino a chance to speak, and directly took out the handcuffs: "Now, on behalf of the Nagano Prefecture Police, I would like to ask you to accept the investigation."
Fujino looked at the handcuffs and frowned, "What do you mean by this?"
Yamamoto Masashi snorted coldly: "I put it on you. Don't think I haven't heard that you are very skilled. This is all to ensure my personal safety. I hope you can understand."
Fujino narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone became a little colder: "The suspect in the case shouldn't be in handcuffs, right? We are all colleagues..."
"Who is your colleague?" He stretched out his hand, grabbed Fujino's hand, handcuffed him, and said coldly: "You are just a consultant. Do you really think you are a policeman?"
"Haha, that's true." Fujino smiled, stretched out his other hand and handed it over: "But I still have to remind you, if you handcuff me, it means I am a murderer by default, and the matter is completely ruined. You know, these handcuffs are not so easy to remove when they are on my hands."
"Humph!"
…………
"Fujino-senpai? (Sir) (Brother)?"
When Fujino and Yamamoto Masashi came out of the study, Xiaolan, Brother Mori, and Shinna Kaori were all surprised when they saw the coat draped over Fujino's hands.
Wearing a coat basically means being arrested, which is common sense in Japan.
They were about to go forward to check the situation, but were stopped by Yamamoto Masashi: "The Nagano County Criminal Division is handling the case. Please do not approach the suspect."
"How could Senior Fujino be the murderer?"
"Did you make a mistake?"
"That is to say, Mr. Fujino is a detective, how could he kill someone?"
"We'll know whether there was murder once we investigate." Masashi Yamamoto didn't intend to get too entangled with everyone. He left the crime scene after saying this.
People who heard the noise came out and talked a lot. Some were reporting that Kikukawa was dead, while others were spreading the news of a detective murder.
Behind him, Haibara Ai silently stared at Fujino's departing back. She was calm and not in a hurry. Her eyes rolled around under her squinted eyelids, as if she thought of something. She took out a phone from her pocket and made a call.
…………
"Inspector, isn't this a bad idea?"
The deputy who came with Yamamoto Masashi seemed a little worried.
He was a young-looking policeman, and as a deputy he was responsible for driving.
"You don't act like a policeman at all. Don't be timid just because the other party is a famous detective. I will take responsibility if there are any problems!" Masashi Yamamoto, who was sitting in the back row, shouted.
Fujino glanced at Yamamoto Masashi and said nothing.
He finally understood that this Yamamoto Masashi should be a member of the police faction that opposed the detective.
The two factions within the police are still very obvious.
One side is inclined to cooperate with the detective, one side is hostile to the detective, and the other side is neutral.
Because this guy is an anti-detective, he found a thorn and wanted to pick it...
I don’t know if this guy did it on purpose or is just really an idiot.
However, according to this guy's train of thought, he is indeed a strong suspect. After all, he is the first person to discover the crime, and it is a pity that he is only handcuffed. If this happened in ancient times, he would be thrown into prison by Lord Qingtian, and then he would confess his guilt after a great memory recovery operation.
At this time, Fujino was not actually panicked, because he knew that the news of his arrest would spread soon.
When the time comes, they will naturally come to rescue you.
Just as Fujino expected, a few moments later, Yamamoto Masashi received a call: "What, Metropolitan Police Department?"
