Chapter 127 Scarlet - Inquiry
Sugamoto Yoshiharu, "Didn't I just say that? I was actually in the sports equipment room, sorting out sports equipment."
"I stayed there until 8:30 p.m. because I thought it was late and I wanted to take Shibuya-sensei home."
"When I came to this staff room to look for her, I found that Shibuya-sensei was no longer here."
Officer Takagi, "So, have you already made an appointment with Mr. Shibuya to go home together?"
"Oh, no, I just think it's safer for a girl to walk home at night with a man."
Amuro Toru looked at him, "Now that you mention it, it reminds me that you once confessed your feelings to Shibuya-sensei, but unfortunately you were rejected by her."
"You, did you know this from her?"
Amuro Toru tilted his head, "No. I learned about it from other teachers. It was when I received a request from Shibuya-sensei to protect her from a stalker and came here to investigate."
"So at that time I specifically marked you as someone who needed attention."
Judy looked at him, "Could it be that you are the stalker who has been harassing Natsuko?"
"You got it wrong. I was trying to protect him from those boring men."
"You want to protect her?"
"Yes, I might as well tell you frankly that I will protect her every day until she returns home safely."
"But even though it's protection, you still have to be careful not to be discovered by her. I'm following her and guarding her wholeheartedly from behind."
"But sometimes she looks around as if she has spotted me, which is really adorable."
"It made me feel strongly that I must protect her well."
Lingzi came in from the door, listening to what he said on the way, holding the glass tightly in her hand.
Amuro Toru was afraid that she would crush the quilt, "Lingzi."
Lingzi walked in and said, "Mr. Stalker, are you seriously ill?"
"Aren't you going to arrest him? Waiting for him to harm girls?"
Everyone blamed him, and Huibenhua looked at him hatefully, saying that she would take this man back after Amuro Toru finished his reasoning.
Toru Amuro pulled her over, and Lingzi handed her the cup. Toru Amuro followed her movements and drank some water with a straw.
"That's called stalking." Judy came closer to him.
Inspector Megure stared at him. "Could it be that she criticized you for this behavior, and you got angry and…"
"I, I didn't do anything ungraceful. It was really after 8 o'clock. When I came here, I didn't see her."
"And she also had a stack of graded test papers in her bag, right?"
"As a teacher, you can't bring that kind of thing home. Of course, I know this rule as a teacher."
Ueno Akiyo, "You mean the test papers? When I met her here last night, she seemed to be grading the test papers in a hurry."
"I was thinking in my heart, maybe she didn't listen to my advice to her anymore."
Officer Megure looked at her, "I see. I was just wondering if the reason you came here to find Teacher Shibuya was to remind her not to seduce your son again, right?"
"So what year is your son?"
Judy looked at her, "Oh, I know that. I guess he should be the same as Conan. Both are first graders."
"Because I heard Xia Zi say before that she is the instructor of Class C of the first year. So, it should be correct."
Takagi smiled, "It's quite cute when a first grader falls in love with his class teacher."
"What the hell are you talking about?"
Officer Gao Mu with beady eyes, "You, what did you just say?"
"It is precisely because he is not mentally mature yet and is in a sentimental stage that I am here to remind Mr. Shibuya to maintain a dignified appearance."
"Besides, my son is in the fifth grade of elementary school now, not the first grade as she said."
"Does this mean he fell in love with a tutor from another class in a different year?"
"Since Ms. Shibuya studied in the United States for many years, she is fluent in English. So it seems that she will take over the English teaching job for the senior students."
"Just like my husband who ran away, because he fell in love with the mixed-race woman he met in the hotel. He became a volcano filial son and abandoned us."
"That's why I don't want my son to be negatively influenced and follow in my husband's footsteps."
"But I didn't expect that she would be in such a depraved environment to seduce my son."
"How, how can you say degenerate?"
Lingzi didn't understand. Amuro Toru looked at her confused expression, touched her head, and held a cup of water for her to drink.
"Excuse me? Does anyone have a handkerchief I can lend me? I dropped it in the taxi on the way here."
Emoto Hana stepped forward, "If mine is okay."
"Thank you."
Judy looked at her, "You said you took a cab here, which means you didn't use a car."
"I sold my car to pay off my husband's debts, and I just got a new driver's license."
"The car was stolen? Are you talking about your car?"
Kamiya Fumiyuki, "Yes, this morning when I was about to drive to work, I found that the garage had been vandalized and the car was gone."
"Have you reported it to the police?"
"I reported the case right away. Because of this, I had to take the train to work and the bus to get here. Plus, I was mistaken for a murder suspect. It was really unlucky."
Judy looked at him unkindly, "I'm warning you, Xia Zi is still alive."
"Ah, wait a minute, smoking is prohibited in school."
"Ah, that's it."
Officer Gao Mu looked at the booklet in his hand and said, "I remember you said that you came here around 9 o'clock last night."
"Yeah, like I said, I got here and found the bus was pitch black. The gates were closed."
"Anyway, it must have been that stalker teacher, or that old woman who took action and drove that teacher away, that's why I got here."
"But it's also possible that you took the unconscious teacher out before Ms. Ueno left and Mr. Sugamoto arrived here."
"That's true. Anyway, I came here as agreed. But the teacher is not here."
"Then I would like to ask, did you and Mr. Shibuya agree to meet at 9 o'clock in the evening?"
"Yes."
"However, there is an unsent text message in Shibuya-sensei's phone, which says that we agreed to meet at around 8:30. Will you be there on time?"
"I don't know if the recipient of the text message is you."
"How would I know that? The reason you ask this is because the addressee is not specified on it, right?"
"It's possible that I was going to send it to that old lady, but she had already arrived while I was still texting her, so I didn't continue."
"Oh, but just think of it as a text message to me. She only got it wrong because her mind was full of addition and subtraction. After all, he was grading papers at the time."
"These are the test papers with problems, right?"
"Yes, sorry. The real thing is currently with the forensic team, so all we have are photos of the test papers."
"But even if it's a simple question, it's possible that you might get confused and make mistakes when you have to look at so many numbers at once."
"right."
"However, it seems that what Xia Zi said is true."
"Look at this illustration in the upper right corner. If a student in the United States gets 100 points on an exam, the word 'excellent' means very good."
"But she told me that in Japan they are drawn as wreaths."
Amuro Toru came over and looked at Judy. "Is that all?"
"Is that all? FBI?"
"what do you mean?"
Cameron also came in, "What about you who are of German descent?"
Amuro Toru looked at him.
"Is this the only information you can interpret from this photo?"
Cameron picked up the photo and looked at it. "Because the correct answers in Japan seem to be circled, the score on the top test paper should be correct."
Amuro Toru laughed out loud, and Lingzi watched beside him, just like a child playing.
After taking the lead, a proud smile.
"It seems that we are the only ones who have figured out everything. Am I right, Edogawa Conan?"
Toru Amuro looked at Conan.
Conan turned around, "Uh, what are you talking about?"
Lingzi raised an eyebrow, "After you looked at the photo, didn't you take a look at the prisoner right away?
"So... do you know who the criminal is?"
Amuro Toru nodded, "Yes, almost."
