Chapter 47(1/2)
"...What are you doing!!"
Edogawa Conan roared at the top of his lungs with this sentence, which made Furukawa Kumisa tremble violently even though he was not sorry.
"We..." But then he thought about why he had to explain to this brat, and he became confident, "Amuro-kun just helped me."
Edogawa Conan ran up to the two of them, and wanted to say something more with a righteous face, but was interrupted by a voice coming from the green belt next to him.
"Hey, come here and see her!"
When the three people were entangled on the road, Haibara Ai had already stood up to check on Hashimoto Ami in the grass, and saw her lying on the ground, covering her head, with a splitting headache.
"Are you OK?"
Furukawa Kumisa squatted next to her and checked her body. Fortunately, she was not injured, but her headache seemed to be more serious.
"Bump, hit someone... Yes, we were almost hit..."
Furukawa Kumisa leaned in to listen to Hashimoto Ami's murmur, and replied: "You mean, you and your boyfriend were almost hit by a car?"
Hashimoto Asami nodded.
"Did you clearly see the face of the person on the other side? Or at least the number of people on the other side?"
The amnesiac girl meditated for a while, wrinkled her features in pain, and shook her head.
Just when they were confirming their memories with Hashimoto Ami, Edogawa Conan's voice suddenly came: "Wait a minute, look at the news on the bus stop!"
Furukawa Kumisa looked back and saw the city's rolling news on the bus station's display screen, which was reporting on the jewelry store theft case that was a hot topic last week.
"Takkakoji Shopping Street 5-chome..." She looked at the address broadcast on the news.
Haibara Ai immediately reacted: "The place where this lady was found was Tanukikoji Commercial Street 3-chome?"
Furukawa Kumisa pulled Hashimoto Ami up, who had calmed down, and dusted her body off.
Toru Amuro watched the news: "I remember... the attending physician said that it was the early morning of last Sunday when this lady was sent to the hospital? The jewelry store theft occurred at 10 o'clock in the evening last Saturday, and the time was almost right.
Worth it."
"This sister said that in her memory there was the sound of breaking glass and the sound of sirens..." Conan Edogawa thought thoughtfully, "Could it be that she saw the scene of the jewelry store being robbed?"
"Anyway, let's call the police first," Furukawa Kumisa concluded. "Something did happen this time, and there are so many witnesses. At least the police have a reason to call the police."
The efficiency of the police dispatch was very high. The police arrived at the scene within 20 minutes after the alarm was called. Regardless of Hashimoto Ami's status as a suspected "witness of the jewelry store theft", he was just an ordinary person who was deliberately harmed, which was enough for them to take him seriously.
.
After asking about the situation, they closed the notebook and said, "We have understood the situation. If this lady has time today, will she come to our department to make a formal transcript?"
Tohru Amuro thought for a while: "We probably have nothing to say about this case of driving and hitting someone. As for the case of the jewelry store... this lady has not recovered her memory yet, so it is better to let her stay in the hospital and continue to receive treatment.
, after you completely recover your memory, go to the police station together to record all the statements?"
The police have no objection. After all, the victim can't even remember her name now. Even if she goes to the police station to record a statement, she will eventually be sent back to the hospital. The same thing will happen when she recovers her memory later.
The place where the car collision occurred was right next to the hospital. Furukawa Kumisa and the others supported Hashimoto Ami as they walked back to the hospital.
When he returned to the ward, he saw a young man at the door of Hashimoto Asami's ward from a distance. He was talking to the attending doctor. Furukawa Kumisa looked at him and frowned slightly.
The group of them walked forward in a mighty manner, and they were already attracting a lot of attention. The strange man saw them at a glance, his eyes lit up, and he ran towards them.
"Yashi! Yashi, you are indeed here..."
Toru Amuro took a step forward and blocked the person, "Who is this?"
The man was stunned for a moment, looked at Toru Amuro, and then at the confused Hashimoto Ashomi, "My name is Matsushima Takashi, and I am Ashomi's boyfriend."
After hearing this, Amuro glanced at Furukawa Kumisa without any trace, and when she nodded, he stepped aside.
Matsushima Takashi walked directly in front of Hashimoto Asami and reached out to touch her shoulder: "Asami, Asami, it's me. The doctor said you have lost your memory... Do you still remember me?"
Hashimoto Asami stared at Matsushima Takashi for a while, then shook his head: "I, I don't remember...but, but I think you are very familiar..."
This is correct. Furukawa Kumisa observed that Hashimoto Ami was mostly on guard against the approach of strangers before, but when Matsushima Takashi stepped forward and even made physical contact with her, she
But he didn't show any defensive attitude.
She still remembers him subconsciously.
Haihara Ai suggested: "No matter what, let's go back to the ward first."
In terms of privacy, the ward is better after all.
They returned to the ward and sat down. Furukawa Kumisa took out his ID and looked at Matsushima Takashi: "I am Furukawa Kumisa, an active criminal police officer on vacation."
When Matsushima Takashi saw Furukawa Kumisa's ID, he was slightly startled, his eyes wandered, and he seemed to feel guilty.
Everyone present saw his performance in their eyes. Furukawa Kumisa said calmly: "That's right, we met this Miss Yashi on the road. This lady had no memory at the time, so we sent her away."
Back to the hospital."
She observed Matsushima Takashi's expression and continued slowly: "However, from the memories she could only remember, we speculated that she had been involved in the theft of a jewelry store that occurred last Saturday night, and was subsequently arrested.
The criminal was chased and killed until he lost his memory. Is that so?"
Matsushima Takashi's throat rolled up and his voice came out a little dry, as if he was thinking about how to answer this question.
"Yes, yes... that's it, police officer, Ashi and I came to Sapporo for vacation. Last Saturday night, we passed by Tanikoji Commercial Street. It's not considered a sighting... we just heard it.
The sound, then, then we collided with...well, with the robbers, that is, they ran very fast and collided with us..."
After saying this, he licked his dry lips, and then continued: "The robbers were all covered, so we couldn't see their faces clearly... But they, they seemed to think we saw it, and they kept chasing us.
...Later, when we had no other choice, I asked Yashi to find a place to hide first while I went to lure them away..."
Furukawa Kumisa listened to his narration, lowered his eyes, and asked: "Then what?"
"Later, later, I escaped from their pursuit... Then, I went back to look for Yashi, but found that she was missing... And then, today, I finally found out her whereabouts..."
After he finished speaking, he no longer focused on the theft case, but turned to look at Hashimoto Ami: "Ash, Ash, do you really not remember me?"
"I, I'm very familiar with you...but, I really can't remember..."
Matsushima Takashi seemed a little disappointed and reluctantly smiled at her: "It doesn't matter, I will stay with you. One day you will be able to recall our past again."
Furukawa Kumisa: ...If you didn't know what this scumbag had done before, this scene would still be quite heartwarming.
Matsushima Takashi took a deep breath and turned his head towards them: "Here, this police officer, and everyone, I really want to thank you for taking care of Ya Shi. Without you, Ya Shi might have been killed by those people...
, in short, please leave your contact information, and after we have taken care of these things and Yashi has stabilized, we will definitely repay you!"
Furukawa Kumisa glanced at him and smiled slightly: "There is no need to repay the favor, Miss Ashi has our contact information."
Matsushima Takashi nodded, then stood up and made an inviting gesture to them: "Then let me see you off?"
Furukawa Kumisa raised his eyebrows: Do you mean to send the guests off directly and not let them continue to inquire?
She was about to say something, but her arm was slightly pulled by Toru Amuro. She was a little confused, but she still gave him the face.
"Okay, let's leave first. If Miss Yashi needs anything else, you can contact us directly."
Matsushima Takashi sent them to the entrance of the hospital. When Furukawa Kumisa saw him returning to the ward, he crossed his arms and looked at Amuro Tohru.
"Tell me the reason why you stopped me just now? - Everyone can see that there is something wrong with this Matsushima Takashi."
Hui Yuan Ai held her chin and thought beside her: "Indeed, he said that he asked Miss Yashi to hide while he got rid of the pursuit, but after he got rid of the pursuit, he didn't even call the police immediately. A normal person would encounter such a person.
The first reaction to this kind of thing should be to call the police, right? - He has no amnesia."
Furukawa Kumisa nodded: "Also, he said that he has been looking for Hashimoto Ami these days, but we called the police station to ask before, and we have not received any relevant alarms recently - we encountered robbers.
Being chased by a robber, or his girlfriend is missing, no matter which of these three situations you encounter, you should call the police, right? He has no such idea at all. "
Haibara Ai concluded: "He has something going on in his mind. Whether it's the robbery or Miss Yashi's disappearance and amnesia, it's not as simple as he said."
Edogawa Conan looked at them: "That's why we can't alert others."
Furukawa Kumisa frowned and did not agree very much: "But the clues we have received so far are too few, and he 'invited' us out as family members of the victim. Later, he wanted to approach Hashimoto Ami to investigate, but just
Difficult."
Toru Amuro shook his head: "We have grasped the key clues."
Hui Yuan Ai frowned: "Key clue?"
Toru Amuro looked at them: "Disregarding what Takashi Matsushima said, it is true that Miss Ashi was hunted down. Therefore, she must have indeed witnessed the robbery of the jewelry store. This is correct."
Furukawa Kumisa followed his train of thought: "The most likely reason for the robbers to pursue them is that they saw the robbers' appearance."
Edogawa Conan shook his head: "But just now Matsushima Takashi said that they collided with the robbers, but they did not see the robbers' appearance clearly. When a person lies, the safest way is to mix the truth and lies.
To put it bluntly, regarding this point, I am inclined to believe that Matsushima Takashi told the truth."
Haiyuan Ai nodded: "I agree with this. When Matsushima was speaking just now, I had been observing his expression, and he was obviously relaxed when he said this sentence - this sentence should be the truth.
"
After Haihara Ai said these words, Furukawa Kumisa suddenly realized: "So what you mean is... on her body..."
Amuro Toru stretched out an index finger to make a "shh" gesture on her lips, smiled at her and winked: "Shh."
Toru Amuro's sudden wink stunned Furukawa Kumisa, her eyes moved, and she looked away.
"Furukawa-san, do you still remember the number of the safe at the airport?"
