This could only happen because, the detective here has the same essential flaw Umineko's Battler had: he's incompetent and easily diverted.
Even if someone inocent might have died - he could have just insited that Mei immediately tells him (not using your Deus ex machima at the right time should be considered a crime too btw.)

You know, while I won't say anything regarding whether Mei is the Another or not:
The girl's flow of logic is quite flawed, mentally unstable or not.
Some of her logic flaws
-) A gradeschooler wouldn't call Miskai Mei 'Misaki-san/chan' but would more likely call them by their first name, therefore 'Mei-chan'
-) Resulting from above: The name of the Misaki the Girl knew could not have been ' Misaki xyz'' but xyz Misaki
