Chapter 176 It’s too late
Just as Sato Miwako was about to leave, she suddenly heard Higashino Ning's voice from behind her.
"Officer Sato, where are you going?"
She turned around helplessly, and Dong Ye Ning had already stood up and walked over to her, "I'm going to touch up my makeup, don't worry, nothing will happen."
Dong Ye Ning wanted to hold on a little longer.
But friends are friends, and restricting others from going to the toilet is a bit too abstract.
"Um...Okay, sorry, I just don't want anything to happen to you. Your safety is too important right now."
Dong Ye Ning took a step back, and Sato Miwako nodded and turned to leave.
When she walked into the bathroom, Dong Ye Ning immediately signaled Gao Mushi, "You go and guard the bathroom door."
Gao Mushi was a little confused, "Ah? This... This is not good, right?"
"What's wrong with that?" Tono Ning pushed Takagi Wataru towards the toilet. "The criminal shot at close range in his last two crimes. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to stay by Officer Sato's side."
"It's hard for you to get into the women's restroom, so it won't be a problem if you wait outside."
But this kind of thing was still a bit difficult for Gao Mushi. He turned around and raised his hands in surrender. "Dongye, this really won't work. I think we should just wait here. It's not far anyway, right?"
"No, hurry up..."
The words have not yet fallen.
All the lights in the venue suddenly went out!
"Ok?"
"Is there a power outage?"
"How is this going."
The crowd began to talk in a murmur.
Dong Ye Ning subconsciously looked towards the stage first, and then his heart skipped a beat.
broken!
The host who was used to appearing under the spotlight did not show up, so this time it might be the criminal who was going to take action!
Without saying a word, he rushed towards the toilet.
"Higashino!" Takagi Wataru shouted from behind.
His shout was particularly "dazzling" in the darkness, making the police officers nervous.
Megure Jusan spoke subconsciously, "Brother Dongye was murdered?! Turn on the light quickly!!"
The policemen began to communicate and gather in the dark, shouting to determine their locations and running in the direction where Dong Ye Ning was originally.
Haibara Ai, who had been staying next to Kisaki Eri, was so scared that her face turned pale and her legs went weak that she almost fell!
Megure Jusan's words hit her heart like a huge hammer.
The key is that this is quite reasonable!
The criminal is currently committing a crime against the detectives, and just now Takagi Shigeru suddenly shouted "Higashino" loudly, and he seemed very excited.
Haibara Ai no longer cared about so many things. She knew the approximate location of Dong Ye Ning and ran over without hesitation.
But when she came over, Tono Ning and Takagi Shigeru had disappeared, and there were many other police officers instead.
"Inspector Megure! I didn't see anyone!"
"Inspector Higashino! Takagi! Where are you?!"
"There was no blood on the ground, and no smell of gunpowder."
"..."
The scattered reports made the other guests in the banquet hall confused, but it gave Megure Juzo a clear idea in his mind.
He quickly shouted to comfort him, "Brother Dongye is fine! He must have noticed something unusual and chased after him. Now we should prioritize restoring the lights. Everyone, get moving!"
...
In front.
Dong Ye Ning had already taken the lead and rushed into the women's restroom.
But...it was too late.
Water was rising in the toilet. Sato Miwako was lying on the ground, her blood spreading on the tap water, while Mouri Ran was sitting there in a daze, her eyes filled with horror.
"Fuck! Just wait for me!"
Dong Ye Ning took out his cell phone to call an ambulance, and the lighting happened to be restored at this time.
"Officer Sato!"
After hearing Dong Ye Ning's angry curse, Takagi Shigeru finally decided to break into the women's restroom. His eyes instantly turned red and he ran over to check on Sato Miwako's condition.
Soon after, Megure Jusan and others also ran over.
After finishing the call, Dong Ye Ning clenched his fist and punched the ground, then stood up with a cold look, "Inspector Megure, this is a serial crime against the criminal police, and I am now fully responsible!"
He took out the intercom and said, "Everyone, immediately block the 15th floor of the hotel. All exits of the hotel must be blocked. No one is allowed to leave!"
Megure Juzo opened his mouth but did not refute, choosing to completely delegate power to Higashino Ning.
After the vision was restored, the police acted several times faster and blocked off the entire Mika Sun Plaza Hotel in just a few minutes.
Although Haibara Ai was relieved that Tono Ning was fine, she was also worried when she saw Sato Miwako lying on the ground, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
"Inspector Higashino, did you see anything?" Kogoro Mouri asked out of his detective instinct while going to help Ran Mouri.
Dong Ye Ning shook his head, "It was already like this when I came in."
He quickly glanced at the bathroom, took the medical kit from the hotel staff and began to perform emergency bleeding treatment on Sato Miwako.
"The door of the cabinet under the sink over there is open. I don't remember Xiaolan and Sato bringing such a flashlight."
"The criminal must have turned on the flashlight and placed it in the cabinet beforehand, then turned off the light, hoping that Officer Sato would pick it up and become an obvious target for shooting."
Dong Ye Ning's eyes were cold. "The murderer obviously planned it in advance. He knew that an engagement party would be held here today, and the suspect could be among the guests attending the party."
"Takagi, go gather everyone outside the police station to conduct a smoke screen reaction. Also bring the hotel staff with you. Check their employment dates, and pay special attention to those who have been employed within the past month!"
Takagi Shigeru was now breathing hard and his fingers were shaking. "Yes!"
Not only him, all the police are now extremely angry.
Soon, the ambulance arrived.
Megure Jusan held his hat and said, "Brother Dongye, I'll leave everything here to you. I'll accompany you to the hospital."
"Okay." Dong Ye Ning nodded, "Thank you for your help, Inspector Megure."
Megure Jusan sighed, "I have always treated Miwako as my daughter. This time... this time the criminal, brother Higashino, please solve the case as soon as possible. I will leave everything to you."
Okay, now I understand what you said.
Like-minded!
When Tono Ning walked out of the bathroom, he found that Director Odagiri was in charge of the situation outside and had completely taken over Takagi Shigeru's work.
He stepped forward quickly, "Director Odagiri, can I investigate openly this time?"
Odagiri Toshiro narrowed his eyes and pointed his finger casually at his son, "Inspector Higashino, you can investigate as you please. You'd better investigate this bastard thoroughly."
At this time, Conan trotted over and pulled Dong Ye Ning's sleeve.
Dong Ye Ning bent down.
Conan whispered, "Inspector Higashino, two people who came to the party are now missing, a man and a woman."
"I'll find some photos for you to check later." Dong Ye Ning patted Conan on the back, "Use your little brain to think of ways to avoid the gunpowder smoke reaction."
His eyes were deep. "Since the other party dared to commit a crime here, either he was sure that he could run fast, or he had a way to avoid the reaction of gunpowder smoke. We should be prepared for both situations."
