Chapter 1058 The plot is tied up again

"I thought Officer Sato was really getting married."

"But that's true. It feels like her relationship with Officer Takagi hasn't progressed that fast... What a pity. She's so pretty..."

"Don't think like that." Mao Lilan heard the children say this and smiled. "In this way, she will have more opportunities to wear a wedding dress, right? That's not bad."

The children who were originally feeling regretful were stunned when they heard this.

I've never experienced this angle before, but it does make sense...

"Yes, in this way, she can experience a wedding several times that others can experience once, which is also pretty good." Yoshida Ayumi imagined the scene and nodded slowly.

"Not necessarily once." Tang Ze corrected, "Even if there is no acting or something like that, some people can..."

"Ahem!"

When Kogoro Maori heard him start this, he knew what he was going to say, and he coughed to interrupt Tang Ze's next words.

This kid is really rude when it comes to teasing people.

"It's okay, Dad. Don't you want to see mom wear a wedding dress again?" Mao Lilan accepted it well and asked with a smile.

"… You are already this old, why are you talking about this?"

Without exposing his embarrassment, Mao Lilan smiled and led a few people into the lobby of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Arrangements related to the wedding of Police Officer Tsutomu Muranaka are still underway.

Because they adopted Karasawa's suggestion, they brought the two newcomers to the police for protection in advance. Today they came with Kogoro Mori to contact the person involved.

As for the other naughty kids...

"After all, didn't the police already treat you to a meal? Why are you still trying to eat my meal?" Maori Kogoro said unhappily, "I just said that after coming to the Metropolitan Police Department, I didn't have time to go back and cook, so I'll just eat lunch here, but I didn't agree to treat you."

"It will be more lively with more people, right?" Mao Lilan patted her father's arm, "and the upcoming wedding will also require your help."

Unlike Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru, they really don’t know the newlyweds now.

But on the bride's side, since she is a foreigner who has lived alone in Japan for many years, there were not many guests and the wedding list was not very full.

It would not hurt to add a few citizens who knew the situation, and naturally, several of them became guests at the subsequent wedding.

"Let's go check on the village first." Speaking of the wedding, Maori Kogoro touched the back of his neck, and was speechless. "But the village is really lucky. At this age, he can still meet his destiny... We used to think that he would end up alone."

"Is he difficult to get along with?" Maori Ran asked puzzledly as she followed Maori Kogoro into the elevator.

"It's not that he's hard to get along with. It's just that when he was a superior, he was the strictest and most frightening kind of leader." Maori Kogoro shook his head helplessly, "We all called him 'Devil Murakami'."

"Have you been scolded by him?"

"That's for sure... Not to mention being late, if there's even a slight mistake in many on-duty actions, he'll be watching every step of your work and finding fault with it for the next few days. Not everyone can stand that feeling."

"Well, isn't it really because you had too many bad habits back then, Dad, that you were always caught by this kind of leader?"

"Hello..."

Listening to the father and daughter's introduction, Conan looked around the not-so-spacious elevator of the Metropolitan Police Department with boredom, and then unexpectedly discovered that Tang Ze was using the smooth elevator wall to fix his hairstyle.

Tang Ze's hair has the same texture as Haibara Ai's - this seems to indirectly confirm their blood relationship - the hair is relatively thick and resilient, and there is a lot of hair, so it is naturally very fluffy.

However, today, Tang Ze was meticulously tidying up the stray hairs in his hair, making his whole head look smoother.

"What are you doing?" Conan asked in confusion.

"Ah, after hearing what Uncle Maori said, I feel that we should be a little more formal when meeting such a respectable police officer." Tang Ze smiled and said a few nonsense words, flattened the hair on the back of his head, and then looked towards the direction of the elevator door.

Why else? To scare people, of course.

Yesterday, at the scene of the explosion of Yoji Motobashi, Pramya did not dare to go forward to check the situation on the scene due to his unexpected appearance. Therefore, no one could recognize the brown-haired young man who appeared at the scene.

Karasawa was adjusting his hairstyle slightly towards Goro Akechi's style.

As he expected, when Kogoro Mori was brought to the conference room and saw Tsutomu Muranaka and his fiancée, Christina, with a gentle smile, clenched her hand on her right arm in an instant.

Brown hair, similar length and style.

This young man looked very much like the man in black who showed up provocatively yesterday and ruined her plan...

"This is Police Chief Muranaka Tsutomu Shimada. This is his fiancée, Christina Lisa." Megure Juzo introduced the people behind Kogoro Mori and sat down on the other side of the conference room.

When he saw Muranaka Tsutomu, Kogoro Mori's face reflexively tensed up.

However, before he could reflexively call out the name of the village chief, Murakami Tsutomu, who was looking at him, approached with a laugh and patted Kogoro Mori's shoulder hard.

"Mauri! I finally meet you! You've been doing really well lately!" The Muranaka Tsutomu who patted his shoulder was completely different from the devil boss described by Maori Kogoro. He seemed quite cheerful and open-minded. "I said before that you've been away from the police force for so long and haven't achieved anything. You've really embarrassed our investigation department. I didn't expect that you would become such a big hit. Chris and I are now your fans."

As he spoke, he took his fiancée's hand and introduced her with a smile: "Chris, this is Maori, the detective you admire the most. When he was my subordinate, he was a good guy. He is not bad at being a detective, right?"

Christina was led by him to stand up, and finally she took her eyes off Tangze, looked at Maori Kogoro, and bowed with a smile.

"I have heard of your name for a long time, 'Sleeping Maori Kogoro'. You are really amazing. I have read several reports about you. Your wisdom and philosophy of life are admirable..."

Accepting the praise from the two people, Kogoro Maori's expression was a little stunned. Obviously, he did not expect that the superior he had not seen for many years would give such an evaluation.

He rubbed the back of his head, glanced at the children following behind him, lowered his head, and replied with rare humility: "No, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary detective who has gained some fame by taking advantage of the momentum of public opinion."

"How could that be! Megure told me that you were very concerned about the exercise. I knew that you were a sentimental person..."

"That golden lady speaks Japanese really well." Mao Lilan did not interrupt her father's greetings with them, but just asked Megure Jusan quietly, "Is she a foreigner?"

"Ah, Muranaka said that Christina is French, but she has been working and living in Japan since she was 20 years old. They said that the two of them get along very well." Megure Juzo answered, also looking at Christina.

Tang Ze provided a speculation that no one had expected before, that is, the threat may not come from Muranaka Tsutomu's side, but rather from the interpersonal relationships on the bride's side.

It is more intuitive that a retired former police officer would be retaliated against, and the woman's relationship was naturally ignored.

After the greetings, Megure Juzo immediately raised the question in this regard.

"We investigated Miss Christina's resume today... Her resume is quite clean. The company she works for is a business partner for many business negotiations. Because she does multilingual translation, she often goes abroad. As for whether there are people who will take revenge on her, that's up to Miss Christina herself."

Christina was in the center of everyone's attention, and the hand that was holding her arm couldn't help but tighten slightly.

People who want revenge on her? That's too many.

Those locusts that chased after him and bit him were both troublesome and noisy.

But of course she could not say these words. She did use her apparent job to travel to many countries, and most of these trips were for the purpose of committing crimes.

"I can't say for sure about this kind of thing." She put on a worried expression and explained, "Any job that involves communicating with people is prone to conflicts, and sometimes as a translator, I come into contact with a lot of business information in negotiations... Is this helpful to you?"

"Well, it sounds like there are some possibilities. You can list some and we'll do some investigation to confirm them." Megure Jusan nodded and began recording.

Ran Mao Li observed this scene, turned her head and shook her head slightly at Conan.

It seems that Megure Juzo doesn't trust Christina that much. His attitude is more like questioning a witness in a businesslike manner rather than facing the fiancée of his colleague's brother.

It seems that Christina's clean resume gave the old detective some premonition, so that he brought out his instinctive detective qualities, which was to question everything first, and then consider the possibilities and solve the case.

Christina pretended to recall the past and proposed several companies and former partners. After Megure Jusan nodded, she tactfully asked, "You are very thoughtful. However, although the wedding venue is almost ready, we may still have to confirm the process and the scene twice. I don't know if it is convenient for the police to do so... You know, I didn't expect something like this to happen, and there are still some finishing touches to be completed. Why do you suspect my former clients? Did you find something?"

"This is a death threat against the wedding after all. We just want to make it as perfect as possible. Safety comes first, right?" Megure Jusan nodded without further explanation. "Of course you can go check the venue. We will arrange for someone to accompany you to protect you."

"Is that so..." Christina nodded, but her eyes involuntarily shifted towards Tangze again.

She did not miss the details of the observation. When this proposal was mentioned, many people's attention was involuntarily shifted towards this young man.

If her judgment was correct, this sudden obstacle might really have been set up by this guy.

Christina gritted her teeth secretly when she thought that due to the police's temporary notice, the operation could not be carried out perfectly, so that not only did they fail to catch the last policeman, but the hostage Yoji Motobashi also gave out some of his own characteristics.

It's really troublesome. Anything related to the police and detectives is very troublesome...

As if noticing the atmosphere had cooled, Maori Kogoro took the initiative to bring up the topic: "Village leader, how did you get to know such a gentle and beautiful lady? You really don't look like the kind of person who can please girls."

"Ah, it was during the time when I was hospitalized due to an injury." Muranaka Tsutomu patted his right shoulder. "My injury was quite serious. Even after rehabilitation, I still had to go to the hospital for regular checkups and treatment. It was at that time that I met Christina."

"Well, I lost my medical card and was worried, and he found my card and brought it to me in time." Christina smiled and took Muranaka Tsutomu's hand, "That's how we met."

"It sounds like this is destined to be together." Maori Kogoro praised a few words, "The wedding venue you chose is also very beautiful."

"Isn't it? It's great there? You can have a panoramic view of the whole Shibuya. I've had meetings there for work before, and when I decided to get married, I thought of that place first." Christina nodded with a smile, "So even if this kind of trouble happened, I still didn't want to get married in a safer place... Sorry, I'm too willful."

"How could that be? You have your own ideas and the right to have a perfect wedding." Muranaka Tsutomu sighed and hugged his fiancée's shoulders. "I am the one who caused you trouble."

"Come on, the officer said it's hard to say which side has the problem. It could also be caused by my carelessness at work."

"That's impossible. How could you, such a considerate and gentle person, offend someone at work?"

As others came to support them, the warm and sticky energy between the newlyweds came out. Except for Conan, who looked thoughtfully at Christina and Muranaka Tsutomu's intertwined hands, the others present looked at each other and no longer stared at that place intently. It was obvious that they didn't want to keep eating dog food.

Just as Tang Ze was about to withdraw his gaze from Christina, he felt a slight vibration in his chest pocket.

The cell phone in this position is...

"Where is the bathroom?" Tang Ze turned his head and asked Mao Li Ran.

"Oh, the restroom on this floor is on the other side of the corridor." Mao Lilan, who was already very familiar with running to the Metropolitan Police Department, answered reflexively.

"Okay, I'll excuse myself for a moment."

Tang Ze stood up quietly and left the meeting room silently.

The first moment he left his sight, he checked the message on his phone and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He put away his phone and quickly walked down the corridor to the other side of the meeting room.

It's located in a corridor separated from the police station by a wall.

There, a woman with short black hair and a professional suit was standing by the window with her head down, waiting for something. When she saw someone approaching, she immediately raised her head and looked over vigilantly.

When she saw the person's face clearly, her tense expression relaxed a little. She leaned against the wall behind her silently without saying a word.

"Curaçao." Tang Ze didn't even take the time to identify her special eye color, and directly called out her name, "Why are you here?"

He hasn't done anything yet, why are some things suddenly stuck?
