Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO

Chapter 243: Suspect 3 Choose 1

Kazuha was a little disappointed, but with her friends around, she quickly adjusted her mood. She glared at Hattori and said, "What Heiji just said is not wrong. From what I know, the victim is indeed a very good dancer. She can be said to be one of the best dancers I have ever seen among all the preliminary contestants!"

"I once happened to pass by the room where she was practicing dance, and saw a little bit of her through the crack in the door. Her dancing was really charming." When He Ye recalls the scene at that time, a hint of appreciation still appears on his face.

"Is it true?" Hattori was a little bit unconvinced when he heard Kazuha's praise.

"Of course it's true!" He Ye answered seriously, "I saw it with my own eyes!"

"So, it is very likely that someone is jealous of her and did this?" Conan lowered his head and thought.

"These are just our guesses now. We still have to wait and see what happens on the scene." Subaru Okiya turned to look at Toyama Kazuha and asked, "Ms. Kazuha, can outsiders enter this competition venue?"

He Ye shook his head and said, "Generally speaking, in order to reduce unnecessary trouble, outsiders are not allowed to enter. Just like when I came to see you today, I also needed to come out by myself to see you, but..."

After hearing what Kazuha said, the children of the Junior Detective League were feeling a little disappointed, and then they heard Hattori Heiji's intervention.

"But..." Hattori Heiji continued, "I think I have a way to enter this competition venue. Wait for my good news."

After saying that, Hattori Heiji walked towards the police officers at the entrance of the competition venue.

Everyone only saw Hattori say a few words to the other person, then turned around and waved at them, motioning them to come over.

In the end, thanks to Hattori Heiji's relationship, everyone successfully entered the preliminary competition venue.

After entering, Hattori Heiji looked at Kazuha and asked, "Kazuha, do you know which room the incident took place in?"

"I don't know about that." He Ye shook his head and said, "But I know where Nilu, oh, that contestant, often practices. There is a locker in the room. People usually put their personal belongings in the lockers in the rooms they often use, so I think her dancing shoes that were tampered with should also be there. That should be the crime scene."

"So the contestant's name is Nilu." Sonoko nodded and said.

"It's a nice name." Xiaolan agreed with a smile.

"Ni Lu!" Xia Xi couldn't help but raise her voice slightly when she heard the familiar name.

When she heard He Ye praising the contestant for her dancing, she had already guessed about 70% of the answer, but now that she actually heard the name, she was still a little surprised.

When Paimon heard the news, he couldn't help but worry, "I didn't expect the victim to be Nilu. Is Nilu okay?"

"Don't worry, didn't you hear He Ye say just now that Ni Lu discovered other people's little movements in advance? Everything will be fine." Xia Xi comforted Paimeng.

"That's good, that's good." Paimon breathed a sigh of relief, then became a little angry, "But the person who did this is really mean, he had the heart to hurt a good girl like Nel. Traveler, you must catch the criminal this time and teach him a lesson."

"Of course." Xia Xi agreed decisively.

When others heard Xia Xi's surprised reaction to the name, they all looked at Xia Xi.

"Xia Xi, could this be another of your friends?" Yuanzi glanced at Xia Xi and asked with a twitching mouth.

"If nothing unexpected happens, yes." Xia Xi nodded.

Okiya Subaru and Conan also glanced at Xia Xi with strange eyes, and became more concerned about this case.

Soon, everyone followed Toyama and Ye to the practice room.

At this time, the door of the practice room was open, and from the outside one could see that there were many people crowded inside, including contestants, police, staff, and so on.

At this time, Xia Xi saw a familiar figure.

She was a little surprised. Logically, she should be at the Kamisato family's old house with her brother to entertain Zhongli and the others.

"Linghua, here!" Xia Xi waved and shouted.

Inside the room, Kamisato Ayaka was explaining the situation to the investigating police when she suddenly heard someone calling her name. She turned around and was surprised to find that it was the traveler.

Linghua slightly curled the corners of her mouth and signaled with her eyes that Xia Xi should come in first. She would go find Xia Xi after she finished her work here.

Xiaolan, Yuanzi and the others were no longer surprised that Xia Xi met an acquaintance again, so they didn't intend to be surprised.

Conan and Okiya Subaru looked at each other, then looked forward, observing the girl whose name might be the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family.

Miss Kamisato had a pair of gray-blue eyes and a snow-white high ponytail. She was wearing a gradient blue haori and a dark blue pleated skirt with patterns of falling cherry blossoms and flowing water printed on it.

From a distance, she looked beautiful, graceful, and generous. In short, she was a girl who fits people's impression of a lady from a wealthy family.

The other person had a red rope tied around his waist, with an ice-blue Eye of God tied in the middle of the blue-purple bow on his back.

According to previous intelligence, this should be the Eye of God representing ice and snow.

This is just the first time Conan has seen this border. He guessed that the other party might belong to a new department in the Teyvat organization.

Seeing that Linghua was too busy for the time being, Xia Xi followed Hattori Heiji to find out the situation first.

As expected, Hattori Heiji is the only son of Hattori Heizo, the chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters. He is very familiar with these policemen and got the details of the incident from them in just a few words.

It turned out that half an hour ago, around 12 o'clock, when Nilu returned to the practice room after lunch to change shoes for practice, she found that something in her locker had been touched. After a careful inspection, she found that her dance shoes had been tampered with.

She had just used these shoes and put them in her locker before leaving the practice room to go to the cafeteria for lunch, so there must have been no problem at that time.

In other words, the criminal acted within the hour or so between when Nilu left at 11 o'clock and returned at 12 o'clock.

According to the surveillance in the corridor, only three people entered the practice room during this period and might have committed the crime.

"It seems that the scope of suspects has been narrowed down a lot." Conan analyzed, touching his chin.

He originally thought that with so many people coming and going here, it would be difficult to identify the suspect.

At this time, Conan and Okiya Subaru had already observed the surrounding environment, came to Hattori Heiji, and heard the police introduce the case.

"That's right." Okiya Subaru nodded in agreement.

"So, who are the three suspects? Uncle, tell me what you saw." Yuantai, who was listening to the policeman's introduction carefully, heard the other party suddenly stop speaking halfway, so he quickly pulled the other party's sleeve and urged.

"Ah! Oh, these three people are..." the other party reacted and continued.

Then, we learned from him that the three suspects were:

Suspect number one, fellow contestant Mizuno Ai, will also be performing a dance in the preliminary round and will be a competitor of Nilu.

Suspect number two, staff member Yoko Murata, had some dispute with Nello over the stage arrangement.

Finally, suspect number three, fellow contestant Barbara...
