Chapter 699: Interested in brown-haired women

"The time of death is estimated to be around nine o'clock, which is when the fireworks display just started..."

The police officer from the forensic department roughly checked the condition of the deceased's body and made this judgment. After hearing this, the police officer from Coral Head nodded silently and said:

"Indeed, this is consistent with the time when the witness found the deceased..."

As he said that, the coral-headed police officer couldn't help but look at Sonoko, Michioki Masahiko and Ehara Tokio who were being questioned on one side——

It turned out that because just now, Tokio Ehara noticed the movement in the bushes and saw the horrific scene clearly, Tokio Ehara couldn't help but screamed.

And that scream naturally attracted the nearby Sonoko and Michowaki Masahiko, so the two of them followed and discovered the woman who fell in the bushes with only one breath left.

However, unfortunately, when the three of them saw the woman, the woman who was seriously injured died like this...

"Judging from the injuries, with this amount of bleeding, it would probably not take more than ten minutes for her to die from being stabbed...Looking at it this way, since she still had her last breath left when the witnesses found her, then The time when she was attacked by the murderer should be around 8:50 in the evening..."

The police officers from the forensics department looked at the crime scene and roughly made this judgment.

"So that means the murderer attacked her in the woods at eight-fifty..."

Hearing this, the coral-headed police officer couldn't help but look solemn:

"In this case, it might be a bit difficult to find the prisoner in such a crowded place... This woman seems to be a tourist like the victim last year, right? I wonder if I can find someone who knows her..."

However, while Officer Coral Head was analyzing this, because he received a call from Sonoko and saw the direction of the police coming, Xiaolan, Conan and Maeda Satoshi couldn't help but rushed over in a panic, surrounding the police. Outside the cordon, towards Sonoko who was being questioned, he shouted worriedly:

"Sonoko! Are you okay?"

"Xiaolan..."

In this regard, when she heard Xiaolan's voice, Yuanzi, who had already asked about it, seemed to have received great spiritual comfort. He hurried to the cordon and vented his uneasiness with tears in his eyes:

"I-I'm fine...just...just..."

Sonoko felt very frightened when she saw the brown-haired woman's death state——

"Hey? Isn't this Miss Xiaolan?"

However, before Xiaolan could talk to Yuanzi, the coral-headed police officer suddenly noticed Xiaolan appearing at the scene, so he couldn't help but stepped forward to say hello.

Hearing this, Xiaolan was immediately surprised when looking at the police officer with a kind expression and coral hair, and said in surprise:

"You...you are...Officer Yokomori from the Saitama Prefectural Police Department?"

"yes."

The coral-headed police officer known as "Henggou" smiled and said:

"The last time we met, it was at Saitama Prefecture's 'Nightest Night Festival in the World'. My father's reasoning was really impressive... Hey, is Detective Mori here too?"

Saying this, Officer Henggou couldn't help but curiously began to look around -

"My father didn't come..."

In this regard, Xiaolan couldn't help but explain, but she was still very curious about Officer Henggou's appearance here:

"But, Officer Yokomori, this...isn't Saitama Prefecture?"

"Oh, I was transferred from the Saitama Prefectural Police Station to the Shizuoka Prefectural Police Station last month. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing..."

After explaining the situation, Officer Henggou looked back at the female body behind him, sighed silently, and then noticed the relationship between Xiaolan and Yuanzi, so he couldn't help but say:

"Is this Miss Sonoko a friend of Miss Xiaolan? Then you should pay more attention to safety here in Izu. After all, the deceased in this incident..."

As he said that, Officer Henggou felt that it was not a good idea to say this, so he quickly changed his words:

"Anyway, it's best not to go out alone!"

——"So, the deceased in this incident is the same as the murder that happened here last year. What do the deceased have in common?"

However, when Officer Henggou finished speaking, Conan on the side asked curiously.

In response, Officer Henggou looked down at Conan next to Xiaolan and couldn't help but say:

"Oh, it's the kid from Detective Mori's family..."

"What do they have in common?"

Conan continued to ask.

Officer Henggou couldn't help but ponder for a moment, but looking at Yuanzi's hair color, Officer Henggou quietly came up and whispered to Xiaolan and others:

"It was brown hair... The deceased in this incident, and the murder that happened here last year, both had brown hair..."

——"Miss Xiaolan! Miss Sonoko! What happened?"

However, just when Officer Henggou said this, Gao Yuan's voice happened to come from a position not far behind everyone——

Looking along the sound, he probably noticed the appearance of the police. Gao Yuan and Sayama Akiko, who had been acting with Gao Yuan just now, couldn't help but run over. At the same time, Tie Zhuyu, Xiao Ai and others also met Gao Yuan outside the woods early. arrived, so Tie Zhuyu, Xiao Ai and others followed them to the outside of the cordon——

"Tea, brown hair..."

Suddenly, when Officer Henggou saw that Akiko Sayama and Tie Zhuyu who were following Gao Yuan both had brown hair, Officer Henggou subconsciously said in surprise.

At the same time, after hearing Officer Henggou's words, Yuanzi's original guess seemed to be verified. Yuanzi began to curl up in fear and hugged herself, and murmured nervously——

"So, so scary..."

"Garden, garden..."

Seeing this, Xiaolan couldn't help but not knowing how to comfort the other party——

"Hey! The one in the trench coat!"

However, before Gao Yuan could come closer, Officer Henggou suddenly pointed at Gao Yuan and said loudly——

"Why?"

Somewhat surprised, seeing that the police officer with coral hair seemed to be pointing at him, and there were no other people in trench coats around, Gao Yuan pointed at himself in confusion, and asked Officer Henggou:

"Me? Officer Henggou?"

"Yes! I'm talking about you! Come here..."

With a serious expression, Officer Henggou pointed at Gao Yuandao, but soon, Officer Henggou suddenly realized that something was wrong——

"No! How do you know my last name is 'Henggou'!"

"Ah? So it's not Officer Shigego Yokomori? I got the wrong person..."

In this regard, Gao Yuan could not help but explain like this——

In fact, after seeing the iconic coral hair style of the police officer in front of him, Gao Yuan already recognized who the other person was——

In the original work, he was a detective at the Saitama Prefecture Police Department in the early stage, and was later transferred to Shizuoka Prefecture and promoted to the police department. His name is Yokomou Sengo, and he is the brother of Yokogawa Shigego, a police officer in the Investigation Section 1 of the Kanagawa Prefecture Police Headquarters Criminal Division.

Since the two are twin brothers, they look very similar, but their personalities and hairstyles are very different.

Because he had met Shigego Yokomori before in Kanagawa Prefecture during the school trip incident at Tedan High School, Gao Yuan used this as an entry point to tell why he knew the police officer in front of him. Last name——

"Oh, so I know my brother..."

Clearly, Henggou said calmly:

"But even so, do you think I will be lenient with you? Tell me, why are you so interested in brown-haired women?"
