Chapter 1960 Fake Patrolman Catch Thief

July 30th, Monday, around 3:30 pm, near Mihua Station.

The police officer on duty took Yasuyo Akimoto to all the restaurants that were open or were already working, but they couldn't find anyone similar to the drunk man.

On the contrary, he asked about the bearded patrolman. Many people have seen him, but Conan noticed that he only appeared since Monday last week.

Based on the collected information, Conan marked on the map the time and place when people saw the bearded patrolman.

The results showed that the bearded patrolman only appeared every night since last Monday. The places where everyone encountered him were all near the road between Mihua Station and Sanchome.

No one seems to have seen the bearded patrolman on other roads, which is strange, and Conan is very concerned.

"That..." Yasuyo Akimoto looked at the map and hesitated to speak.

"Miss Akimoto, please say what you want to say." The police officer on duty said.

Yasuyo Akimoto hesitated and said, "This seems to be the road from Mihua Station to my apartment."

"By the way," Conan asked with a flash of inspiration, "You once said that you worked overtime last week and came back by the last tram every night, didn't you?"

Yasuyo Akimoto was puzzled, "Yes, what's the problem?"

Conan asked, "You also said that you met a bearded patrolman on your way home every night, didn't you?"

"Yes, what does it matter?" Akimoto Yasuyo was even more puzzled.

Seeing the enlightened smile appearing on Conan's face, Haibara said angrily, "Hey, don't be a fool."

"That's right."

"Hurry up and talk."

"Conan!"

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi also condemned one after another, leaving Conan speechless, what are you urging, really.

"Look, the bearded patrolmen always appear at night, which happens to cover Miss Akimoto's off-duty time."

"Hmm, what then?" Yuan Tai asked.

"I understand." Haibara said, "The bearded patrolmen started to appear last Monday, and it happened that Ms. Akimoto started working overtime last Monday, and she came back by the last tram every night."

"The time when the bearded patrolman appears is when Ms. Akimoto is off work, and the place where she appears is from Mihua Station to Ms. Akimoto's house, and she will meet Ms. Akimoto every day." Conan said, "If it is a coincidence, it is really a coincidence. .”

"Ah?" Akimoto Yasuyo was taken aback.

"Yes." Ayumi nodded.

The police officer on duty frowned and said, "Could it be that this guy is targeting Ms. Qiuben, trying to plot against Ms. Qiuben?"

Haibara said: "Look at it the other way around, it's more like protecting Ms. Akimoto and escorting her home from get off work."

"Ah," Mitsuhiko clapped his hands, "In this way, the matter of the beard and wearing glasses is also understood. It is a disguise, and I am afraid that Ms. Akimoto will recognize him, because he is someone Ms. Akimoto knows."

"How come?" Yasuyo Akimoto frowned, "If he is someone I know, there is absolutely no need to do that."

"That's right, stop guessing here," said the police officer on duty, "he must have been checking around unoccupied homes at night."

Conan said with a smile: "If he really wants to pretend to be a patrolman, there's no need to pretend like that. It's summer now, and it must be very hot to cover his beard."

The policeman on duty denied: "No, there must be some particularly conspicuous marks on his face."

Yuan Tai asked: "Conan, do you know who it is?"

"If you know it, tell it quickly." Ayumi said.

"How could I know that?" Conan said with a wry smile, "I should ask Ms. Akimoto. She must be an acquaintance of Ms. Akimoto, and she knows about Ms. Akimoto's overtime work."

Yuan Tai said: "I see, it must be Ms. Qiuben's colleague."

Yasuyo Akimoto shook his head,

"They work overtime with me, they can't come here to play patrol."

Huiyuan asked: "Hey, who did you tell about overtime work, people who live nearby?"

"Here, let me think about it." Yasuyo Akimoto thought about it.

"Yeah," Mitsuhiko said with a high five and a smile, "Clothing, we can find a store that sells police uniforms and ask who has bought police uniforms."

"Is there anyone selling this?" Ayumi didn't understand, "Should it be illegal?"

Huihara said: "There are still specialty stores."

"By the way, that's the one," Conan laughed, ""Running! 100 Policemen Search" has 100 police uniforms."

"Could it be that it was stolen at that time? I'll call right away to find out." The police officer on duty went to the side to make a call.

"Stealing police uniforms?" Akimoto Yasuyo shook his head and said, "Among the people I know, there is no such dirty hands and feet."

Yuan Tai said: "That is to escort you."

Yasuyo Akimoto shook his head and said firmly, "I don't need kindness from that kind of person."

"If he paid for the costume and wore it to protect me, I'd appreciate his kindness."

"But if he's wearing a stolen costume to protect me and commit crimes for me, I can't afford it!"

At this time, the police officers on duty came back, and the program team did not lack clothes, and they ordered them when they went back to do the dry cleaning. ...

On the other side, the residential area near Mihua Park.

Tetsuji Odawara of Tielong Ramen Restaurant walks silently carrying a paper bag, inside the paper bag is a set of clothes - police uniform.

He was the one pretending to be a policeman, because he overheard what Yasuyo Kazuto Akimoto, who came to eat ramen, said by accident.

General Yasushi Akimoto got off work very late, and her companion joked that she might meet bad guys.

"Really, don't scare me, okay, I'm really worried."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but the law and order in Mihua Town is not bad."

"That's what you said, it would be bad if we really met."

"Go buy a spray, I heard it's very useful."

"Let me try."……

Odawara Tetsuji recalled that his eyes were not looking at the road when he collided with someone.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Odawara Tetsuji quickly apologized, looked up, and found that it was a person he knew, a middle-aged drunk he met when he was pretending to be a patrolman recently.

The two sides passed each other, and Tetsuji Odawara continued to think about it.

He has always been secretly in love with Yasuyo Akimoto, because he is nearly ten years older than Yasuyo Akimoto, and he has a bad appearance, so he has never dared to express his heart to Yasuyo Akimoto.

However, this does not prevent him from doing something for Yasuyo Akimoto, such as sending her home.

And in order not to let Yasuyo Akimoto recognize him, he had to put on makeup.

However, if in the middle of the night, Yasuyo Akimoto found a man trailing behind him for several days, he would probably be too scared to walk, and he might even call the police.

Coincidentally, Tetsuji Odawara saw "Running!" 100 People Police Investigation" program, a flash of inspiration, decided to pretend to be a policeman.

In the middle of the night, there is a police escort, which must have a great sense of security.

For seven days, he dressed up as a bearded policeman every night, patrolling between Mihua Station and Yasuyo Akimoto's apartment, and escorted Yasuyo Akimoto home safely.

Now, this matter is completed, but unexpectedly, the police were drawn out, and the thief who broke into the empty door was also involved.

How does this explain the police's belief? Trouble.

Odawara Tetsuji had a headache, thinking of his recent encounter with Yasuyo Akimoto, he couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.

No matter what, Akimoto Yasuyo was fine, and that was enough.

Um? etc!

Odawara Tetsuji thought that in the past week, besides Yasuyo Akimoto, he always met that middle-aged drunk.

Every time I met him, he would drink and drink until very late before returning home drunk, but every time he was not allowed to send him home.

And, he wears office worker attire every time!

Tetsuji Odawara stopped, turned around and looked at the middle-aged drunk who had gone away, he was now wearing casual clothes.

Today is Monday. An office worker should be at work today.

Yasuyo Akimoto had today's rest because he worked overtime for seven consecutive days until night, but he didn't. He worked overtime at night at the restaurant.

To be honest, he shouldn't be able to wake up in the morning like he drank.

I thought he was the kind of person who rested in the morning and started working at noon.

But it's afternoon now, and if he goes to a restaurant to drink at night, what class is he on?

An idea came to Tetsuji Odawara's mind, that this person didn't go to work at all, he was pretending, just like he was wearing a patrolman's costume to pretend to be a policeman, this person was wearing an office worker's costume to pretend to be an office worker.

Since office workers are pretending, drinking can also be pretending, because when drinking, there is no need to wear office workers' clothes, and there are no clothing discounts.

If you pretend to be drunk, there is probably only one purpose, which is to walk around pretending to be drunk and check the conditions of the houses along the way.

Just look at the lights to know if there is anyone inside.

It just so happened that the road he turned into now was where he went last night.

In other words, he was the thief who broke into the empty door. He is now confirming the situation and confirming whether the target is really not at home.

Now is the travel season, if you are going out, just listen to the chats of the neighbors in the neighborhood.

Tetsuji Odawara tightened the paper bag in his hand, followed quickly, found a hidden flower bed, put on a police uniform and a beard, and turned into a patrolman.

"The gentleman in front, please wait a moment." Tetsuji Odawara greeted the target man from a distance.

It's just that there are many men all over the street, and everyone doesn't know who he is calling.

However, the target man felt guilty and quickened his pace.

Tetsuji Odawara ran to catch up, and the target man ran away immediately.

"Thief, stop, catch the thief." Odawara Tetsuji shouted, but the distance between the two was tens of meters, and the people around didn't know who the target was, and the people in the distance saw someone running but couldn't catch up.

Seeing the corner, the target man ran even faster. After passing the corner, he found a policeman and some children here before he breathed a sigh of relief.

It was the policeman on duty and Conan, followed by Haibara, Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko of the Detective Boys, and Yasuyo Akimoto in the distance.

Just now they happened to be walking nearby, and they heard the sound of catching a thief, so they rushed over immediately, and they were caught.

Meeting on a narrow road, the target man used his momentum to run away from the policeman and passed Conan.

However, the target man was not proud, but found that a bicycle parked on the side of the road had fallen down. He stopped in a hurry, tripped and fell heavily, and couldn't stand up for a while.

The one who brought down the bicycle was Hui Yuan who followed, and she saw a car parked beside her, so she did it.

Looking at the target man on the ground, Huiyuan patted the non-existent dust on his hands, and said without sincerity: "Ah, I'm so sorry, my hands slipped."

Conan sweats profusely, this responsibility is really clean.

The police officer on duty rushed up and caught the target man. Yasuyo Akimoto arrived, and Tetsuji Odawara's bearded patrolman also turned around the corner.

"Uh..." Tetsuji Odawara was stunned when he saw the crowd.

"It's you!" Yasuyo Akimoto covered her mouth in disbelief, and she recognized Tetsuji Odawara at close range in broad daylight.

"No, it's not me." Odawara Tetsuji quickly turned around and wanted to escape.

"Surrender yourself!" Conan blocked his way, Genta and Mitsuhiko bravely went up to help block the way, and Haibara grabbed Ayumi and took her to the side.

"Be careful!" shouted the police officer on duty.

"He's not a bad guy, is he, Tetsuji Odawara, the owner of the ramen restaurant?" Conan asked with a smile.

Yuantai was very surprised, "Is he the owner of the ramen restaurant?"

Conan smiled and said, "Didn't you smell it? The secret recipe of Tielong Ramen."

Mitsuhiko sniffed, "It really is."

Odawara Tetsuji silently took off his beard, revealing his true face. ...
