Chapter 88: Screams in the Telegram
Takagi Wataru looked at Sato Miwako in confusion: "Officer Sato, didn't you and Inspector Megure go to support the bank robbery? Why are you back again?"
Miwako Sato explained: "I came back just for this case. The person in charge of the bank involved in the robbery called me last night and said he had something special to tell me. We agreed to meet here at 2 o'clock, and he also said that the couple would come together."
Yuya asked in confusion, "A couple?"
Miwako Sato looked over and noticed that there was a young boy standing behind her, and he looked quite familiar.
"Kamiya-kun? Why are you here too?" Sato Miwako then noticed Yuya standing behind her and asked in surprise.
Yuya touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "Well... the records of several previous cases have always been correct. Inspector Megure forced me to come here."
Sato Miwako was speechless for a moment. Although you have helped us solve many cases, we still have to take the records. We can't let them write it themselves, right?
But since Inspector Megure had already reminded her, there was no need for her to say it again.
Then he explained the previous question: "When the crime happened, the wife of the person in charge also happened to be at the bank, and was held hostage by the criminals at gunpoint. Maybe she was too scared at the time and didn't remember anything until later?"
Takagi Shizuo touched his chin and said in confusion, "That's strange. The person in charge's wife also called me last night and said she had something to tell me about the prisoner and that she would come over alone at 5 o'clock."
Sato Miwako said: "The person in charge mentioned this. He said he was worried that his wife might be targeted by criminals, so the two of them came here early."
Gao Mushi suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Yuya and Conan looked at each other and frowned at the same time, feeling that something was wrong.
If it was really about the criminal and you were worried about being targeted, why didn't you come here in the morning? And if you were really scared, you could just ask the police to come over.
Miwako Sato looked at Takagi Wataru and asked tentatively: "Well, did Takagi listen to what Yumi said in the traffic class?"
Gao Mushi was stunned: "What?"
Miwako Sato frowned: "I drank too much with her yesterday. I feel like I said something, but I can't remember it. I asked Yumi but she didn't say anything. I'm worried that some bad gossip will spread..."
Gao Mushi's expression froze, and he laughed dryly: "No, she didn't tell me anything."
Sato Miwako nodded gently: "Is that so? That's good..."
Yumi Miyamoto from the traffic class likes to tease her relationship with Takagi Shigeru, and Sato Miwako is very worried that what she says will cause Takagi Shigeru to misunderstand.
Hmm? Yuya narrowed his eyes. He noticed that there was something wrong with the way Takagi Wataru looked at Sato Miwako.
Although it is known that these two people will become lovers in the future, Sato Miwako probably has no such thoughts at present. It turns out that Takagi Shigeru fell in love with Sato Miwako so early?
"Officer Sato!" Suddenly, a police officer came to the door with a middle-aged man. "I brought the bank manager here."
Sato Miwako smiled and said, "Thank goodness. Please come in."
Soo Keizao wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at his watch and said, "I was almost late, but luckily I made it."
Takagi Shigeru asked in confusion: "Didn't your wife come with you?"
Zeng Wei Keizao showed a confused expression: "My wife said she had to go to the bank for something, so we agreed to meet here." He looked around, "Is she not here yet?"
Takagi Wataru shook his head: "No."
Zeng Wei Keizo looked at his watch and asked in confusion: "That's strange, is she still sleeping?"
You also tilted his head, feeling a little confused. Didn't he say he was going to the bank for something? Why did he say he was sleeping?
His intuition told him that something might be about to happen.
Soo Keizao pointed to the phone on the table and said, "Can I borrow your phone?"
Takagi Shigeru nodded: "Please use it."
Soo Keizao dialed the phone at home and looked at his watch at the same time.
"Three times." Yuya looked down and saw Conan stroking his chin in thought. He nodded and said, "Well, it's a bit strange to check your watch three times in such a short period of time. It's like... you're waiting for something to happen?"
Conan couldn't help but look up at Yuya.
"Hello," the call seemed to be connected, "I'm at the police station now, yes, please wait a moment..."
As Soo Keizo said this, he handed the microphone to Takagi Wataru.
Takagi Wataru took the phone and said, "Hello, someone else has answered the phone. This is Investigation Section 1."
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ah, this voice, you are the police officer I spoke to last night, Officer Takagi, right?"
"Yes, but why are you still at home, Mrs. Zengo? Did something happen?" Takagi Shigeru asked in confusion.
"Ah? What happened...Didn't we agree to meet at 5 o'clock?" Zengo Kayo was very confused.
Takagi Wataru was a little confused: "But didn't your husband say that you would come together at 2 o'clock?"
Zengo Jiadai was very surprised: "Ah? Is that true? I haven't heard him say that?"
"Never heard of it?" Takagi Wataru was stunned. What was going on?
Zeng Wei Keizao suddenly grabbed the microphone and shouted to the other side: "Hey, what are you talking about!"
Takagi Shigeru was not expecting Zeng Wei Keizou's actions. He was bumped and his body swayed. He barely managed to hold on to the table and avoid falling. When he came to his senses, he found that he had accidentally pressed the hands-free button on the phone.
Before Takagi Shigeru could press the button back, he heard a sharp "Ah!!!" from the microphone. The terrified scream came out of the loudspeaker and echoed throughout the office.
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
Youye's ears moved, and he vaguely heard, in addition to the screams, there was also the sound of something heavy falling to the ground?
Takagi Wataru grabbed the microphone and shouted anxiously: "Hello? Hello? Mrs. Zengwei?"
Sato Miwako moved quickly, running outside while shouting to Takagi, "Takagi, let the search team stand by. I'll drive to the door and wait for you right away!"
"What is the Mechanical Search Team?" Yuan Tai asked puzzledly.
Guang Xiao Encyclopedia Yan explained: "It's the abbreviation of the mobile investigation team responsible for the preliminary investigation of the case, right, Ko... Yuya-nii? Huh?"
Mitsuhiko looked back and found that Yu had disappeared without him noticing, and Conan had disappeared with him.
"Hey, where are Yuya brother and Conan?" Mitsuhiko's little head was full of question marks. They were just next to him, how come they disappeared in the blink of an eye?
“I don’t know…”
