"Surr- Surrender..." Wataru Takagi felt that saying this made him sound like a criminal, but he was also conflicted. He was now in a dilemma, and being stared at by Chi Feichei's calm gaze, he felt inexplicably guilty, as if he should surrender. "I- I'll consider it..."
"No need to consider it!" Genta said decisively, "Aren't we investigating the case? If you surrender, there's no way to investigate!"
"Yeah," Ayumi nodded, "We promised Uncle and Officer Sato that we must hurry up and find out the Truth!"
Mitsuhiko stroked his chin, "If Police Officer Takagi surrenders, it's not impossible. Our Junior Detective League can investigate on our own..."
How could Wataru Takagi be at ease letting a group of children investigate the case? Even with Chi Feichei following them, he was afraid they would encounter the Culprit and something would happen. He was a Police Officer after all, and he couldn't just hide and leave the Case investigation to others, right? "Um... Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Chi, but I still want to investigate the Case thoroughly."
Chi Feichei opened the car door and threw a bag of Things over, "Then change Clothes."
"Huh?" Wataru Takagi caught the bag, opened it and saw a women's golden long curly wig, a long dress, a women's coat, high heels, a handbag, and inside the handbag were Cosmetics and Jewelry. "This... let, let me change into this?"
"Police also have situations where they use Makeup for Surveillance, right?" Chi Feichei said.
*What's with all the fuss!*
"Yes, but... why Women's Clothing?" Wataru Takagi was a bit mentally broken. When doing Surveillance, he would use Makeup, but it was always Makeup to look like a man.
"Now that Officer Sato has been caught, the Police must already know that you are investigating the case. To investigate the case, you will always have to go to people related to the Case to inquire about the Situation, and then go to the Crime Scene to investigate," Chi Feichei calmly analyzed, "Now there must be people lying in ambush there, and the main observation target is men. If you change into Women's Clothing and use Makeup to disguise yourself, they might just glance over and ignore you."
Conan nodded. He had to admire Chi Feichei's Carefulness. He had only asked Chi Feichei to pick them up, and hadn't thought about the Police lying in ambush in related places for a moment. He didn't expect Chi Feichei to have already considered it and even prepared Things when he came.
Not far away, the sound of a Police Siren faintly came again.
Three children were also anxious.
"Police Officer Takagi, just change into it."
"This is for investigating the case, isn't it?"
"O- Okay, wait for me a moment." Wataru Takagi compromised, and walked towards the Darkness In the Alley with the bag in his arms.
"Cherish it," Haibara Ai also had a mind to watch the fun, and leisurely reminded, "GUCU's Women's Clothing, although not very expensive, every style is very popular, and this is the latest style."
"Yes..." Wataru Takagi walked away weakly.
Chi Feichei saw a hint of envy in Haibara Ai's eyes, and after a moment of silence, said, "Ai, GUCU doesn't have Children's Clothing."
Haibara Ai: "..."
She didn't want it... Okay, maybe there was a little bit of envy in her eyes just now, but hearing the word Children's Clothing, it was heartbreaking!
Conan held back his laughter, turned his head to look at Chi Feichei, "By the way, Brother Chi, do you want to do a Disguise? There should be quite a few people in the Police who know you, right?"
"It's okay," Chi Feichei said, "If I'm discovered, I'll say I read the Report, and felt that there was something wrong with this Case, and I was on my way home after having Dinner with my girlfriend and the children, and just happened to pass by, and wanted to take a look."
Conan thought for a moment, "Although taking children and a girlfriend to the Crime Scene is a bit ridiculous, if it's just passing by and taking a look, it's still plausible..."
Ten minutes later, the Car left the Alley entrance.
Women's Clothing Wataru Takagi drove, "Disguise as Mr. Chi's girlfriend?"
"Uh, isn't it a bit unfair to Brother Chi..." Mitsuhiko said with sweat.
Wataru Takagi: "..."
Hey, hey, Women's Clothing him is clearly the most aggrieved one, okay...?
Chi Feichei sat in the passenger seat, looking down at the investigation Record that the children had recorded before, "So I regret it, let's say you are my Distant Cousin (Female)... older female cousin."
Wataru Takagi was greatly shocked, "Mr. Chi..."
"Your Makeup Skill is too bad." Chi Feichei said without raising his head.
The Cosmetics he brought were not Fake and Shoddy Products, but the ones he bought before learning the Disguise Technique. The Clothes he chose were not ugly either. Considering that Wataru Takagi was male and had a large Skeleton, he specifically asked the Shop Assistant and chose Clothes that were suitable for women with larger Skeletons to wear.
Wataru Takagi himself was not ugly, but he didn't expect that after changing Clothes and using Makeup, it was simply terrifying...
"I've used women's Makeup before too." Wataru Takagi scratched his head.
"Police Officer Takagi, when you encounter Police later, please restrain your masculine gestures," Chi Feichei reminded him, and then said, "Tell me about the previous investigation Situation of this Case."
"Uh, yes," Wataru Takagi sighed in his heart, he still had to pretend to be a woman's movements later, it was really too difficult for him, "The Criminal Mr. Tonda and the Victim Ms. Muranishi lived in the same Apartment. At the same time, Ms. Muranishi was also Mr. Tonda's superior. The Crime Scene was the Bathroom in Ms. Muranishi's Room. She was strangled to death with a Video Camera Cable. When the Corpse was discovered, Mr. Tonda was drunk and fell asleep on Ms. Muranishi's Bed, snoring loudly. The Entrance Door and Chain Lock were both locked at the time, and the Room was a Secret Room. In addition, fingerprints of Mr. Tonda were found on the Main Gate's Key, the Chain Lock, and the Video Camera Cable on the deceased's Case."
Conan took over the conversation, "The Police also investigated his Motive. His Relationship with Ms. Muranishi in the Company was not good, and they often quarreled. On the day of the incident, Mr. Tonda was still excitedly telling his Friend in the Pub that he must Teach that Woman a Lesson."
"After drinking Liquor, he took advantage of his Drunkenness to go to Ms. Muranishi's Room, and after arguing, killed Ms. Muranishi. This is also a possible thing," Wataru Takagi said, "As for locking the Chain Lock, it should be to prevent Ms. Muranishi from escaping. After killing Ms. Muranishi, because he was too drunk, he fell asleep on her Bed."
Chi Feichei really didn't remember the specific Situation of this Case before, "Mr. Tonda must have said that he doesn't remember anything, right?"
Conan: "..."
Drank too much, doesn't remember anything... He seemed to have experienced it once before.
"Yeah, precisely because he can't explain the Situation, and there is both Evidence and Motive, and it's also a Secret Room now, that's why the Police arrested him as the Culprit," Wataru Takagi said, "But he insists that he would not kill someone because of this."
"Drinking Liquor leads to mistakes." Chi Feichei commented.
Haibara Ai nodded, "Getting drunk leads to even more mistakes."
Conan: "..."
Felt alluded to again...
"You have already gone to the Izakaya where they drank Liquor to investigate," Chi Feichei flipped through the children's Notes, and handed them back, "Next, are we going to the Crime Scene?"
"Yes, we are planning to go and take another look at the Situation of the Crime Scene!" Ayumi responded actively.
"Then stop near the Crime Scene," Chi Feichei said, "There are Bento in the trunk, let's eat before going over."
Wataru Takagi was a little embarrassed, "Mr. Chi, Conan even asked you to buy Bento, it's really making you spend money..."
"I didn't say that." Conan looked at Chi Feichei in confusion.
"Then how did Brother Chi know that we haven't had Dinner?" Mitsuhiko asked directly.
"I guessed," Chi Feichei said, "Because when you are with Conan, if any Case happens, it's basically impossible to think about eating Rice."
"Hey, hey, what does this have to do with me..." Conan half-moon eyed.
Chi Feichei calmly counted, "That time with the Magic Enthusiast, an Incident happened at Dinner time, and everyone didn't eat. At the Mamiya Family, you disappeared before Dinner, and you and I didn't have Dinner. At the Senyuan Family, an Incident happened again at Dinner time, and again everyone had nothing to eat. In Izu, you heard that someone was killed near the Train Tracks, and ran over there again, and you, Sonoko, and Ran didn't have Lunch..."
