"Explanation?" Shirai Mitsuo was stunned for a while, and then looked at Police Officer Megure with a confused face, "Officer, what do you want me to explain?"
"Mr. Mannequin accused you of stabbing it with a dagger, do you admit it?" Police Officer Mumu asked.
"..." Mitsuo Shirai looked at Police Officer Mugure, and then couldn't help but said, "Let's not say whether I admit it or not, even if I did it, did I break the law? What crime did I commit? Destroy the hospital public Supplies? I don’t think this is something that requires the involvement of the police, but at most it’s a criticism from the hospital.”
"Uh..." I have to say that Mitsuo Shirai really had a point. Obviously, the biggest problem with this matter is that Mitsuo Shirai's current behavior is not a real crime. Then what name did the police use to intervene in this matter? They don’t need to answer any questions at all. It can’t be that nothing happened, and you can still arrest people.
Police officer Mu Mu, who had a headache, looked directly at Linton next to him, obviously not knowing what to do.
"I think what this gentleman said is right." However, what Linton didn't expect was that Linton directly supported Mitsuo Shirai in the first sentence, which made everyone stunned. Although Kogoro Mori was the one who called the police this time, Kogoro Mori also said that it was Linton who asked him to call the police, so this is not going to cause trouble for the police again, why did you call them here.
However, Linton here took a step forward and continued: "I think what Dr. Shirai said is reasonable. How can this mannequin be called Mr. He is not a person, is he? To be precise, he should be an item right Well, stabbing it with a knife is not a homicide, Doctor Shirai, do you think so?"
"Yes... yes." Mitsuo Shirai didn't know who Linton was at this time. Although he was Conan's attending doctor, he hadn't met Linton's current identity, Mr. Edogawa. But since the other party supported him and made sense, he of course nodded and said, "Even if it was really me who did it, so what? I didn't kill anyone, right? Is there any law that can govern this?"
"No, Mr. Edogawa..." Mori Kogoro looked at Linton who suddenly "rebelled" and was also a little anxious.
"What's the matter, there is really nothing wrong with what I said." Linton continued, "His behavior really only damaged an item, and everyone agrees on this. The most here is that the hospital asks him to pay for it. Everyone must abide by it." It's law-abiding, right?"
"But it's not you..." Mori Kogoro was about to say something, but was interrupted by Linton again.
"But on the other hand... an object, if it accidentally kills a person, what do we usually call this situation?" Linton said suddenly, "For example, when walking on the road, a telephone pole suddenly fell down. Yes, I killed a person. Or when I was working in a hospital, suddenly a mannequin fell down and killed a person. Do you think this is a crime?"
"Uh...is this...an accident?" Kudo Yusaku next to him suddenly understood Linton's meaning and said.
"Yeah, this was an accident. The police can't arrest that telegraph pole, and of course they can't arrest the mannequin either." Linton said, "The subject of the law must be a natural person, right? So Doctor Shirai That's right, the police really can't get their hands on this matter. Did you hear that? Mr. Mannequin, the police don't care about this matter. You can just repay your grievances and revenge if you have a grudge."
"Understood, please give me a knife." Itakura Zhuo, the mannequin here, nodded cooperatively.
"Wait, wait..." Mitsuo Shirai suddenly understood, and then anxiously said to Officer Megure and the others, "You guys won't really watch this mannequin stabbing me to death and do nothing, you guys? But the police."
"But... Mr. Edogawa seems to be right. We can't arrest this mannequin. You just said that it is an item. If it is involved in any case, it can be seized as evidence. Just a moment, but you said it yourself, this is not a case, it can be handled within the hospital..."
Obviously, Police Officer Mu Mu also understood the meaning of this, and now he is drawing inferences about other cases from one instance.
"But...but you can't just do nothing..." Mitsuo Shirai was a little panicked when he heard this.
"Do...Of course I will do it." Police officer Megure said, "Then now, after all, what happened in front of us is the same as the example Mr. Edogawa just said. If you really see the telephone pole fall , we will save people. But if we save people, we will not handcuff the poles. Dr. Shirai, you did not say that this is not a case..."
"Come here, use this..." Linton took out a chainsaw out of nowhere and handed it to the mannequin next to him.
"Oh, this is exciting..." The mannequin here also cooperated and took over and said. "This...you don't care about this?" Mitsuo Shirai stepped back directly behind Officer Megure, pointing to Linton and the mannequin.
"Ah... this..." Police Officer Mu Mu looked at Linton and didn't know what to say. Although I know that Linton is really intimidating, but this is a bit too exaggerated. And now Officer Megure feels more and more that the current atmosphere and rhythm are so familiar, as if he has experienced it somewhere before.
"I'm talking about this police officer." Linton said, "You want to take care of this matter? In what name? I hold a chainsaw. Is it a crime? I put my own chainsaw in a human body Is the body of the model a crime? What name is the police planning to intervene in?"
"Uh..." Officer Megure looked at Linton, then turned to Mitsuo Shirai and said, "Doctor Shirai, we really can't handle this matter, why don't you inform your dean that it's Mr. Edogawa Putting his personal belongings on the mannequin of your hospital may have violated some internal regulations of the hospital, so let someone negotiate with Mr. Edogawa."
"Here...here..." After saying this, the mannequin here has already started to pull the chainsaw.
"He... he has already started pulling the chainsaw." Mitsuo Shirai pointed at the mannequin and said.
"But... if there is no crime, we... can't do anything, Dr. Shirai." Officer Megure spread his hands and said.
"Come on, this guy just looked down on you and said you are something, hack him to death." Linton said directly with a wave of his hand.
"That...Mr. Edogawa..." Officer Megure was a little speechless, which was too obvious.
"What's wrong? Can I still instigate an item to commit a crime? Is this also illegal?" Linton spread his hands and said, "Mitsuo Shirai, right? Let me ask you now, what do you think it is? If it is an item, We will watch it hack you to death now, if not, you should explain why you stabbed it."
"I...I..." Shirai Mitsuo didn't know what to do, and the current situation was too subversive of common sense. Who would have thought that stabbing a mannequin could cause trouble.
"I think..." Linton suddenly said to the mannequin next to him, "There are so many people today, it's inconvenient to cut him down later, in case there are Jings who are really brave enough to save people. But it doesn't matter, there are many It's an opportunity. In the future, you will follow him every day, go to and from get off work, get up and go to bed, there will be many opportunities, and there will always be a chance to avenge you. For example, first find out the address of his home, wait for him to sleep in the middle of the night, and rush at him with a chainsaw. Going in is just a slap in the face...Well, Officer Meguro, I will tell a mannequin some criminal plans that I will use to write novels in the future, don’t commit crimes.”
"No crime..." the corner of the police officer's mouth twitched a little. Of course, he did not commit a crime. Although the scene looked like instigation, the problem was that Linton had to instigate someone.
"You...what do you want?" Shirai Mitsuo here was really panicked, this is not bad, let this mannequin squat itself every day, how could he bear it. Now that there are so many people, he is not so afraid of this thing, but if you think about yourself at home alone, just such a thing broke through the gate with a chainsaw and rushed in, let alone whether it really came, it just made him worry If you are scared, you will not be able to live well in the future.
"What do I think, what do you think?" Linton said with a smile, "Is this something we picked first or you Shirai Mitsuo first?"
"..." Mitsuo Shirai's face darkened, he was indeed the one who provoked the incident first.
"Doctor Shirai, I also think you should explain the situation well." Officer Megure also said, "Why do you do such a thing."
"I... this..." Mitsuo Shirai couldn't explain it, he couldn't say clearly that he wanted to kill someone, and then use Kogoro Mori.
"This is... a rehearsal of murder, right?" Yusaku Kudo here naturally played his role at this time, directly piercing Mitsuo Shirai's inner thoughts.
"Wh... what a rehearsal of murder, you are talking nonsense!" Mitsuo Shirai was obviously a little anxious here.
"Murder rehearsal?" Jiang Teng Shengli, who was behind him, was stunned when he heard this, "That is to say, he stabbed this mannequin to practice killing? Then the target he wants to kill is..."
"That's right, if my guess is right, it should be you, Mr. Eto." Yusaku Kudo said, "I also asked other doctors just now, and now the chief of surgery is about to retire, and there are two superiors It happens to be you and Mr. Eto. It is precisely because of this that you want to attack Mr. Eto. I am right, Mitsuo Shirai!"
