Chapter 6: A New Case

After the case was over, Senichi took Okino Yoko, Mouri Kogoro and others back to the Metropolitan Police Department to take their statement.

This is a necessary procedure. After all, the deceased was related to Okino Yoko and committed suicide in her room. As the owner of the room, she naturally had to go there.

And Mouri Kogoro, as a case-solver, naturally had to go there, and presumably Miss Okino Yoko would not want to stay in the room where her ex-boyfriend died.

Fortunately, although the manager made a wrong move, he was quickly discovered by Senichi. He was a passer-by, so he didn't have to go with him. Senichi made it easier for him to go to work.

After all, something like this happened, the room is temporarily unoccupied, and it's getting late, so she must find a hotel or something to stay.

"Miss Okino, let me take you back." Senichi said with a smile after finishing the statement for Okino Yoko.

It just so happened that Mouri Kogoro had finished his statment, and Senichi filled out the application form for using a police car, and was about to send a few people away.

First, Kogoro Mouri, the protagonist and the heroine were sent back to the Mouri Detective Agency. After noting the location, Senichi started the car again, "Miss Okino, please tell me where the hotel that manager booked you?"

"It's the Lagseli Hotel in Shinjuku." Yoko Okino said.

"I see." Senichi nodded. After all, the university is in this place, and he has obtained all the memories. Naturally, there will not be a situation where he doesn't know the way.

For a while, the car fell silent.

Just like that, there was silence in the car until the end.

Because of Yoko Okino's identity, the police car she applied for was just an ordinary black car, so it didn't attract the attention of the people around her.

Okino Yoko put on a hat and mask in the car, dressed up in disguise, and was about to get out of the car.

"Miss Okino! Please don't blame yourself too much. It's not your fault. There are various reasons that led to such a tragedy."

Just as Yoko Okino opened the car door, Senichi still comforted her, although he didn't know how effective such comfort would be.

"Thank you." After getting out of the car, Okino Yoko bowed slightly to Senichi and said in thanks, "Hot Spring, I will go if I have time."

"Welcome, please enjoy it when the time comes." Senichi smiled and drove away.

....

Time passed, and a week had passed before I knew it, and I gradually became familiar with the daily routine of working in the Metropolitan Police Department.

In the morning, Tokyo time, at 6:30, in Senichi's rental house, the TV was broadcasting the morning news.

"Yesterday... There was a murder case in Gunma District... Judging from the items left at the scene, the victim was proved to be the 42-year-old Masaki Nekami!"

"The police believe that the possibility of homicide is quite high, and they are currently conducting an in-depth investigation..."

"As expected of Conan's world, you can find a murder case when you wake up early in the morning..." Senichi came out of the bathroom after washing up and complained.

He took out the milk and bread and started to eat breakfast, then went to the Metropolitan Police Department to go to work as usual.

But today Senichi met an unexpected person at the door, no, it should be a person who should not appear but is in line with common sense.

Mouri Kogoro, Senichi met him at the door.

"Morning, Detective Mouri, I wonder what is the business of coming to the police department so early today?" Senichi greeted and asked with a smile.

But Senichi already had the answer in his heart.

Since this is the case, Senichi likes to be involved in it even more.

During this week, Senichi has discovered many things that are different from previous life.

Even though he didn't really live in this era, he had watched a lot of mystery dramas about this era in his previous life, and he didn't know much about the Metropolitan Police Department, but that's not the case.

Generally speaking, the treatment has improved a lot, which is considered a good thing.

And more importantly,

Promotion in this world is related to one's own ability, even the elites of the career group are the same, they will be promoted faster and so on.

Therefore, it is very necessary to have a good relationship with Mouri Kogoro, no, with Conan.

After all, Senichi is just an ordinary fan of reasoning. To be honest, it's a bit embarrassing for him to be a detective...

If it weren't for the fact that he had passed the career group exam and the economic downturn, Senichi would have considered whether to do other jobs.

And discovering the appearance of Conan and others is also one of the reasons that gave Senichi the confidence to do a good job.

After all, in terms of various factors... it can be regarded as taking advantage~

"It's you, Officer Senichi." Mouri Kogoro turned his head to look at Senichi, with a slightly unhappy expression, "I wonder if you know that there was a murder case reported in the news this morning?"

"Yes, I know, it's Masaki Negishi." Senichi nodded and said, "It must have happened at the Fire Festival in Chigui Village, Gunma District."

"That's why I came here." Mouri Kogoro said with an unusually serious expression, "Actually...I've been following him for the past three days!"

"You mean..."

"Yes, I was still following him until yesterday!"

"Nani!" Senichi looked surprised on the surface, but he couldn't be surprised in his heart.

After all, Kogoro Mouri...

It's not surprising that this type of murder case happened to him, right?

Afterwards, Senichi invited Mouri Kogoro into the Metropolitan Police Department, and reported the incident to Police Officer Megure, which immediately attracted his attention.

Afterwards, a suspect was found according to the investigation.

Yutaka Abe!

The deceased was insured with 500 million death insurance, but the beneficiary of that high insurance was only his friend.

No matter how you look at it, this is very suspicious.

"Yutaka Abe-san!! You entrusted me to follow him! And why is the beneficiary of the insurance money not his family but you?"

In a conversation room, Mouri Kogoro is shouting and questioning the suspect who was notified by Senichi to come.

He is wearing glasses, looks well-mannered in a suit, is about forty years old, and appears to be a very gentle middle-aged man.

Yutaka Abe smiled and said calmly: "Hey...that's just a game between us..."

"Nani!?"

"He and I are old friends, who have known each other since university. It has been more than 20 years."

Yutaka Abe explained without any panic, "Then one day when we were drinking together, he asked if we should make a bet to see who would live longer.

Then I agreed, and the bet was 500 million yen, and it was at his invitation..."

Officer Megure was a little perplexed: "That's why you insured each other..."

"Yes, but I never would have imagined that the winner would be decided after only three months..." Yutaka Abe smiled wryly.

Senichi, on the other hand watched Abe's performance without the slightest fluctuation in his heart.

For Senichi, who was still chasing Conan before time travel, some of the old routines in Conan's world were too familiar to him.

Senichi didn't even have to look for other suspects anymore, he was sure that the culprit was the man in front of him!
