"And he even spoke so many truthful words."
"I suppose you'll have to spend the rest of your life in prison," said Izuki Shizuta calmly.
"What do you mean?" Shuji Kano asked, puzzled, and emphasized again, "The statute of limitations has expired! You have no right to arrest me!"
"I left the country the night Justice died, and returned three years later."
“The 15-year statute of limitations for prosecution will be recalculated after you return to China, and yesterday was the last day.”
"It's past midnight now, I'm innocent!"
Hearing this,
Izuki Karita scoffed, "But you forgot about the time difference."
"To be precise, today is the last day of the statute of limitations."
This is also what Izuki Karuta asked Sato Miwako to investigate at the Metropolitan Police Department.
After repeated verification by Miwako Sato, it was confirmed that the statute of limitations still applies.
That's why Izuki Karuta came over to say these things to Kano Shuji and even filmed it.
If the statute of limitations has expired... then Izuki Karuta might have to suggest that Sato Miwako promote a different kind of business.
Subsequently,
Izuki Karuta made a phone call, ordering Inspector Megure to lead a team to arrest the person.
It was already midnight, but the police responded very quickly.
Ten minutes later, Miwako Sato, who had been speeding all the way, arrived first.
Izuki Karuta watched the video with her.
Halfway through the video, Miwako Sato broke down in tears again.
In particular, hearing Shuji Kano mocking Masayoshi Sato for valuing friendship in the video recording...
Miwako Sato lost control of her emotions and almost shot Shuji Kano.
"It's not worth it for such scum."
"Don't get your hands dirty, Miwako."
Izuki Karuta had anticipated this, and he held Sato Miwako in his arms, gently comforting her.
Another ten minutes passed.
Inspector Megure arrived with his team.
There was nothing they could do; they were all driving at a normal speed, except for Sato Miwako, who had sped here.
By this time, Sato Miwako's emotions had calmed down considerably, but her eyes were red, clearly indicating that she had been crying.
“Izuki Karuta, you…”
Megure Juzo pointed at Shuji Kano, who was lying on the floor.
Tonight, Sato Miwako has not left work and keeps looking through old case files from 18 years ago, refusing to say anything when asked.
Megure Juzo was somewhat worried about his old friend's daughter, so he silently stayed with her at the Metropolitan Police Department. Then he received a call from Itake Karuta reporting that she had obtained irrefutable evidence in the Shushiro case.
Upon arriving at the scene, seeing Shuji Kano lying on the floor, I instinctively assumed that Shizuka Itake had used force to extract a confession.
"Don't worry, Inspector Megure."
"I am a good, law-abiding citizen."
"This video can prove my innocence."
Izuki Karuta handed the video recorder to Inspector Megure.
After watching the video, Inspector Megure was also greatly shocked.
Not only were they shocked by Shuji Kano's shamelessness and arrogance, but they were also shocked by Shizuka Izuki's methods.
The camera lens was always pointed at Shuji Kano.
Izuki Karuta's figure was not captured on camera; only her voice could be heard.
But those few words were enough to make Shuji Kano kneel down, as if he had seen something incredibly terrifying, his legs went weak, and he was terrified.
Indeed, Izuki Karuta did not use any violent means, and Kano Shuji did not have a single scratch on his body.
The video footage was irrefutable evidence, and the police quickly took Shuji Kano away.
When Inspector Megure led the team away,
Because Sato Miwako is involved in the case, she cannot interrogate Kano Shuji.
So I told her to leave work early and go home to rest.
"Don't worry, Miwako."
“I will ask Attorney Fei to take over this case.”
Izuki Karuta also comforted him, saying, "Kano Shuji has absolutely no chance of turning things around!"
Sato Miwako nodded, her eyes filled with gratitude and admiration.
She solved an 18-year-old cold case in just half a day and even got the murderer to confess. Izuki Shigeta's ability is truly terrifying.
Izuki Karita then added, "If needed, I can come to your house tonight to keep you company."
When watching the video just now, Miwako Sato was very emotionally unstable.
Sato Miwako felt a surge of joy, blushed, and shook her head: "No need, I want to rest more..."
"And Mom is at home too..."
"Next time, I'll definitely come to thank you in person next time!"
Sato Miwako quickly ran away, afraid that if she stayed for even ten seconds longer, she would be influenced by Izuki Shigeta's gaze and lose her temper.
After returning home,
Miwako Sato told her mother that the old case had been solved.
The mother and daughter embraced and wept bitterly, finally resolving the 18-year-old knot in the Sato family's heart.
On the second day, Sato Miwako went to work as usual.
Then Miyamoto Yumi pulled him aside.
"Hey, Miwako, do you know what's going on?"
"Officer Shiratori was arresting an arsonist last night and was almost burned alive."
Sato Miwako was surprised,
After returning to the Metropolitan Police Department yesterday, she focused on investigating files that had been gathering dust for many years.
He also had to calculate the statute of limitations for Shuji Kano, down to the hour, leaving him no time to attend to anything else.
According to Yumi Miyamoto, Shiratori Ninzaburo was separated from his arsonist and attacked yesterday.
After being knocked unconscious, he was locked in a wooden hut filled with gasoline and tortured by the prisoners.
The arsonist then set fire to the wooden house, intending to burn Shiratori Ninzaburo to death as well.
Fortunately, it was already dark when the firelight caught the attention of Conan of the Detective Boys, who called for Wataru Takagi, who then rescued Shiratori Ninzaburo.
Shiratori Ninzaburo was first tortured, then burned and smoked. Although his life was not in danger, he had to be hospitalized and receive treatment for a period of time.
Sato Miwako was secretly surprised: Could Shiratori's situation really have triggered the so-called divine punishment?
"I heard yesterday that Shiratori offended Mr. Itake."
"As a result, we encountered a dangerous situation that night."
"Miwako, no one will dare to mess with you from now on."
Yumi Miyamoto looked on with envy.
"What is this nonsense?"
Sato Miwako was a little disappointed: "Mr. Itsuki and I are just ordinary friends..."
Yumi Miyamoto's face lit up with joy: "Really? Really? You two really aren't boyfriend and girlfriend?"
Chapter 192 Find Miwako to repay the debt, just keep your voice down.
Miwako Sato was inclined to agree.
But whether it's a mission or a transaction, she has no right to say that.
Not to mention, she was the one who took the initiative yesterday.
"Yi Zhu and I are really just friends."
Miwako Sato emphasized this earnestly.
"They're not just ordinary friends, are they?"
"Mr. Yizhu helped you solve an old case."
