Chapter 325 Serial Murder Case

Chapter 325 Serial Murder Case

When Ling Cheng and his group arrived at the police station, Hattori Heiji told them about the case of the corpse. Based on the same characteristics, this was the third case of a serial murder.

Just like the bodies that fell on the car this time, they had already been killed before falling from the building, and then the knife was stabbed into the chest through the wallet. This is the same feature of the previous two serial murders.

Kogoro Mouri made a surprised sound. It was too unbelievable that they would encounter such a thing while traveling.

Compared to the surprise of Maori Kogoro and the others, Ling Cheng was calmer. He placed his fingers on the table and tapped out a random rhythm.

If it's a serial murder case, then all we have to do is find the common points. Unless it's a random killing, then there must be a connection.

A police officer came in with documents, and Ling Cheng immediately raised his hand to greet him.

"Here, Mr. Officer, let us see it."

"Oh, okay, here you go."

The officer responded and handed it over, not even thinking there was anything wrong with giving the information to a primary school student. Conan moved closer to Ling Cheng, his eyes focused on the information.

The officer's explanation was so straightforward that Ling Cheng didn't mind. After all, Officer Takagi had done the same thing before, and there was nothing wrong with it. Hattori Heiji didn't need the information; he had already read it before. Seeing Ling Cheng and the others reading, he stood by and explained.

"The first person killed was Mr. Nagao Hidetoshi, the manager of a convenience store. The next person killed was Mrs. Nishiguchi Tayo, the proprietress of a tavern."

"As for Ye Anhe who just fell, he was a taxi driver. It's impossible for the three of them to have any connection with anyone else just because of money. Aside from their modus operandi, they have nothing in common at all."

Ling Cheng: "The search area must not be large enough. There must be some common ground. The murderer must have ulterior motives for stabbing through the wallet and into the chest."

Ling Cheng looked at the information and casually refuted what Hattori Heiji had just said. Then Officer Sakata came in with a happy expression on his face.

"Brother Heiji, we found it. We found the commonality among the victims."

Although he was repeatedly slapped in the face, Hattori Heiji did not expect this. He was only happy about finding a new clue, so he quickly played the videotape that Sakata brought.

The picture showed a car surrounded by a group of reporters, with flash lights flashing non-stop and a person surrounded by noisy voices.

Councillor Goji, the other questions were too noisy to hear clearly, but what does this video show? Hattori Heiji said directly:

"What is this? Isn't this the news about Soutarou Goji, who was a member of the prefectural assembly six years ago, being convicted of corruption and dereliction of duty?"

Maori Kogoro continued:

"Later, his secretary took the blame and resigned, and the matter was dropped. I remember his secretary's last name was Nagao... Hey, could this Nagao be that?"

Well, if nothing unexpected happens, that's probably it. Ling Cheng looked at the video in front of him and pointed at the driver driving the car.

"This must be the uncle who just fell down."

Conan: "Yes, that's him, Brother Ling Cheng, you have a really good eye."

Conan also looked over, and that person was indeed the one from before. Seeing that they had discovered it, Sakata also explained:

"Yes, he worked as a driver for the township councillor until his fourth year."

Hattori Heiji: "I see, then this case seems to be closely related to Councillor Goji."

"You're right, so all the seniors in our department have gone to the township councilor now."

When Officer Sakata said this, Ling Cheng subconsciously looked over again, feeling a sense of incongruity. Just like just now, this officer gave him the feeling that he knew everything, and then little by little, he revealed what he knew to them.

It was like a guide. Did he know who the murderer was, or...

Ling Cheng was thinking about it when he heard Maori Kogoro's words again.

"However, that guy Xiangsi has always been known to hate the police. It may not be that easy to meet him."

But the two victims, a former secretary and a driver of the township councilor, are indeed the connection between the two victims. What about the other victim?

Ling Cheng also asked the truth, which stumped Officer Sakata. Maori Kogoro immediately said:

"It must be related, I just haven't found it yet. You still have a lot to learn, kid."

Ling Cheng said "oh" on the surface and sent a message to Lingshi. Conan felt that both sides had their own reasons. The second victim, Xiguchi, had indeed failed to confirm his relationship with the township councilor, so meeting with the township councilor now could solve this problem.

Ling Cheng put away his phone. Conan beside him was dragged away. Ling Cheng looked over and was speechless about the behavior of the two people in front of him. He couldn't find the words to describe them for a moment.

Ling Cheng: This is okay, but that’s not right, why can it really be inserted in without falling out?

Ling Cheng's speechless look was too obvious, and Hattori Heiji thought he wanted to come too. But when he looked around and saw there were no seats left, Ling Cheng quickly shook his head and refused.

Sorry, he doesn't really want to go back to the drawing board, nor does he want to experience the feeling of being in the mother's womb. He can go there openly.

Seeing this, Hattori Heiji zipped up his pants and stood up, calling for Officer Sakata to follow him and prepare to go find Councillor Goji. Mouri Kogoro tried to stop him, saying that this matter could be left to the police, as they were here to have fun today.

Hattori Heiji turned his head to show off, raised his hand and pinched the brim of his hat,

"Please, this gangster has ruined your entire trip to Osaka. How could I possibly get around him so easily? He Ye knows how to get to our house. You should just go back first."

After saying that, he continued to walk forward. Ling Cheng looked at him without saying a word. He didn't dare to turn around. By the way, Officer Sakata, didn't you notice?

Ling Cheng slapped his forehead and simply followed him out using the excuse of going to the bathroom. How could he not get involved in this matter when Conan had already gone there?

Hattori Heiji was not surprised that Ling Cheng followed him, but after getting in the car, when Officer Sakata was fiddling with the rearview mirror, he finally questioned Hattori Heiji's bulging belly and wondered if he was dead.

Ling Cheng: "Is it really okay? I just realized it now."

Ling Cheng walked into the back seat. Officer Sakata looked at the rearview mirror when he heard the voice. He had no idea when he followed him from behind, and he clearly didn't see him in the rearview mirror just now.

Hattori Heiji also unzipped his jacket, revealing Conan inside. Officer Sakata turned around and made another critical strike. He kidnapped two children at once. Does Brother Heiji still have the potential to be a kidnapper?

It was so painful that the silver bracelet around her waist started to move.
