After obtaining the investigation rights for this case, the investigation into this case that had already been classified as a suicide, was reopened.
Of course, it was kept confidential.
Although the case seemed to have made progress, the actual investigation was somewhat challenging, or one could say, it yielded no results.
After all, the case had been closed as a suicide, and the scene had long been handled by the deceased's family.
Apart from that, there were no witnesses or anything of that sort, making it difficult to know where to start.
Senichi remained calm internally; this situation was, in fact, normal. He didn't expect to solve the case through conventional investigation methods.
It was just a routine procedure.
As for the plan, Senichi had already formulated it long ago.
With the recent days of investigation, the inexplicably scientific and quirky weather of the Detective Conan world once again arrived.
Clearly, it was snowy weather when they resolved the mainline case, but since Senichi and his team took over the suicide case investigation, the weather began to warm up.
When the investigation reached a dead end and Senichi unveiled his plan, the weather... had already turned.
This was the rainy season, and rain was constantly falling from the sky, just like today.
In the gloomy weather, Detective Narasawa entered a telephone booth.
After he made his call and prepared to leave the telephone booth, a figure in raincoat and a black umbrella blocked the exit. It looked like someone waiting to make a call at first glance.
But when Detective Narasawa saw the man's face and the weapon he held, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect it to be really you..."
Looking at the man's changed expression and the weapon he held, Nara sighed with a complex expression, "If it weren't for Detective Senichi discovering your conflict with Dr. Jinno ahead of time.
I, who had told you everything after undergoing psychological guidance, would have been killed by you, Doctor Kazato."
And just as Detective Narasawa spoke, Sato Miwako and others who saw this scene from the surroundings rushed over and surrounded Doctor Kazato with guns.
"Surrender, Doctor Kazato." Detective Narasawa looked at the doctor in front of him and advised, "It's not too late now. Don't do anything foolish again..."
"Heh... What choices do I have now?" Doctor Kazato looked at the densely packed muzzles around him with a hint of despair and chose to surrender straight away.
The current scene indicated that the authorities were well-prepared after understanding everything. At this point, resisting would be futile.
Detective Narasawa took the firearm from the doctor's hand, and Sato Miwako and Takagi immediately handcuffed him, preparing to take him to the police car.
"Can I know how you found out I was the culprit?" Before being taken into the car, Kazato turned his head to Detective Narasawa and said, "When you came to me for psychological therapy a few days ago, you deliberately told me about restarting the investigation, right? In other words, you suspected I was the culprit from that moment."
"That's right. We already knew about Dr. Jinno severing your right wrist during the surgery." Detective Narasawa said, "In the beginning, our investigation yielded nothing. All of this was carried out according to Detective Senichi's plan."
"That detective?" Kazato said with a wretched smile, "What a terrifying guy. He even calculated my psychology... I walked into the trap myself..."
Detective Narasawa looked at the departing Doctor Kazato with mixed emotions, "Finally, it's resolved."
"It's really great, Senpai." Sato Miwako's face showed a mournful color. "I believe Detective Tomonari's spirit in heaven can finally rest in peace."
"Yeah..." Both Shiba and Narasawa wore a mournful expression, "The case Detective Tomonari pursued to the end, finally, the curtain has fallen..."
They glanced at each other and then turned to Sato Miwako and bowed, "I'm truly sorry!!"
"Huh?" Sato Miwako saw the two bowing at ninety degrees and hurriedly tried to lift them up, "What's going on? Why apologize for no reason."
"Well, actually..." Detective Narasawa had some difficulty speaking but finally mustered the courage, "Actually, back then, we did encounter someone outside the warehouse... At that time, we encountered Toshiya Odagiri... so we hastily closed the case..."
"What?!" Sato Miwako was stunned upon hearing this, then immediately said in disbelief, "He... you guys..."
"That's right... It's the son of Chief superintendent Odagiri..." Detective Narasawa said with difficulty, "So at that time, we didn't have the courage to continue the investigation... I'm truly sorry!!"
"....."
Sato Miwako looked at the two in silence without saying anything, then turned around and left directly.
She didn't say they weren't worthy of being detectives, but the disappointment was visibly apparent.
The three returned to the car, and Sato Miwako remained silent in the driver's seat for a long time. Takagi, in the passenger seat, wanted to say something comforting but didn't know how to start.
"Do you think they are unworthy of being detectives?" Senichi spoke from the back seat, "But how many can truly face the pressure from superiors? They also have families to support, so their choices are understandable."
"But...!" Sato Miwako exclaimed as if venting her frustration, "It's precisely because I understand that..."
"Not satisfied?" Senichi smiled, "So let's go arrest him."
"Huh?" The two were surprised to hear Senichi's words and instinctively turned to look at him.
After enjoying their surprised expressions, Senichi smiled, "Chief superintendent Odagiri is a very upright superior. When I requested responsibility for this case, he had already instructed me in advance... ...
After learning about his son's attempt to extort the deceased, he insisted on handling the case impartially."
"S-so..." Takagi said dumbfoundedly, "What do we do now..."
"Yeah, that's right." Senichi smiled, "Let's bring him in and make him confess."
What happened afterward was like an interlude and didn't need a detailed description.
Knowing that his father was determined to enforce the law impartially, in order not to be treated as a murderer, the culprit had no confidence to be arrogant and soon admitted to the crime of extortion facing the interrogation by Senichi and others.
The rewards for this case also began to settle shortly after.
[Captured in Her Eyes]
[Completion: Perfect]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the firearm equipment: "Detective"]
[Evaluation: In this case, you discovered the cause of the incident in advance, intervened in the case in a clever way before it escalated further, and effortlessly resolved the case, avoiding a tragedy.]
This evaluation can be considered quite accurate.
Although the handling of this case seems a bit casual, even anticlimactic, if it weren't so straightforward, Senichi's advance knowledge of the plot would be meaningless.
Solving a case is similar to deciphering, as long as you find the key points in what seems like a chaotic situation, you can easily solve the case by revealing the underlying truth.
What Senichi was more concerned about, however, was the reward this time!
