Ke Xue: An outlaw, a maniac who sets out to usurp the throne! Chapter 015

Riko subconsciously touched her neck, it was empty…

However, thinking of Jiang Heng next to her, Riko took a deep breath.

“I’m not sure, maybe it fell off accidentally on the roller coaster.”

“After all, things do occasionally fall off roller coasters.”

“That… that’s true, so we clean this area every day.”

“We even set up a lost and found office specifically over there.”

A staff member nodded, raising a finger to point at a small table not far away.

With Kudo Shinichi’s current reputation, it was really difficult to gain recognition from others…

“Kudo-kun, if you really want to accuse Miss Riko—”

“If I were Miss Riko’s defense lawyer, putting aside your wild and imaginative crime method.”

“Just this so-called pearl you found is a bit unconvincing.”

“What’s more, according to what you said, the hook that was previously hooked on the roller coaster… is it here?”

Jiang Heng narrowed his eyes, turning to look at Inspector Megure meaningfully.

Inspector Megure briefly asked the surrounding police officers and shook his head.

“Our people didn’t find anything similar nearby.”

As soon as the words fell, Inspector Megure’s expression couldn’t help but stiffen.

What’s going on, why is his reaction just like Jiang Heng’s subordinate…

However, it was understandable, mainly because Jiang Heng was truly imposing when talking about serious matters.

“If I remember correctly, since the roller coaster stopped, she hasn’t left.”

“Miss Riko… has also been here the whole time.”

“If there really were those so-called tools for the crime, it’s impossible that no one would have found them.”

Mouri Ran pursed her lips, looking at Kudo Shinichi with a hint of disappointment.

“I—” Kudo Shinichi opened his mouth.

During the previous inspection, Kudo Shinichi had, of course, deliberately searched for evidence that could corroborate his hypothesis…

However, apart from these scattered pearls, not even fishing line… Kudo Shinichi found nothing!

Therefore, Kudo Shinichi had considered trying to trick Riko first.

But, unexpectedly, Riko seemed to have gained confidence due to Jiang Heng’s presence.

As for Riko not being the murderer—

Kudo Shinichi was 100% in denial!

Even if he hadn’t found anything else, the mere coincidence of the pearl necklace breaking was highly suspicious!

What’s more, Kudo Shinichi hadn’t even found the “string” that had threaded the pearls!

The problem was, as Jiang Heng said—

Insufficient evidence!

If Jiang Heng and Riko were to act as defense lawyers, Kudo Shinichi would only become a clown again…

Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi couldn’t help but clench his fists.

“Kudo-kun, perhaps… you should focus on your studies.”

Inspector Megure sighed in disappointment, but didn’t say it directly.

“If Kudo-kun is truly interested in the detective profession—”

“Perhaps he could follow in his father’s footsteps and become a detective novelist in the future.”

“After all, if it’s just writing novels, a wild and imaginative mind might be very popular…”

Jiang Heng looked up at Kudo Shinichi and said meaningfully.

Immediately after, his expression became serious.

“But, the detective profession itself… is really not suitable for you.”

Damn it!

Kudo Shinichi couldn’t help but pinch his palm, a flicker of unwillingness flashing in his eyes.

Inspector Megure didn’t want to bother with Kudo Shinichi anymore and directly looked at Aiko with a serious expression.

“Miss Aiko, no matter what, a dagger stained with the victim’s blood was found on you.”

“Now, please cooperate with us and return to the police station for investigation…”

Inspector Megure directly waved his hand to the police officers behind him, and Aiko was quickly subtly restrained.

“I… I really didn’t do it.”

Aiko waved her hands, her expression flustered.

However, the “evidence” was right in front of them, so the police naturally had legitimate reasons to detain Aiko…

“Then can we leave now?”

Gin glanced at the police officers, his voice cold.

“Of… of course.”

Inspector Megure frowned, always feeling that this person and the burly man next to him didn’t seem like good people.

However, these two were in the very front seats of the roller coaster.

If they wanted to make a move, the opportunity was truly much lower than those in the back.

Gin said no more and directly left with Vodka.

“Lawyer Jiang, thank you very much for defending me.”

Riko walked beside Jiang Heng, her voice full of gratitude.

Actually… Kishida was indeed killed by Riko!

The reason was simple—

In college, Kishida had been with Riko, and then he cheated on her…

However, this matter was actually unknown to Xiaotong and Aiko.

Out of resentment and anger, Riko decided to kill Kishida with the pearl necklace he had once given her.

During the previous action, Riko had been blinded by anger.

Now that she thought about it… Jiang Heng was right, this method of committing the crime was really unrealistic.

If she had made even a slight mistake at that time, she might have been dead by now…

Thinking of the roaring sensation of the roller coaster at that time, Riko couldn’t help but shiver.

This time she was lucky; she didn’t die and was acquitted because of Jiang Heng.

Next time? Next time, she definitely shouldn’t do such dangerous things again!
