Chapter 8 The Vanished Corpse? It's Just Hidden
"Hi! Matsuda, did you have fun yesterday?" Yumi and Sato were chatting in front of the vending machine in the corridor. When they saw Matsuda walking in with his head low, they asked happily.
"Hey." Matsuda took out the car keys and returned them to Sato, then waved to Yumi: "Are people from the Ministry of Transport so idle?"
"How could it be?" Yumi Masato's face: "Detective Matsuda, I suspect you drove without a license yesterday. Can you go with me to record it?"
"Hahaha, this joke is not funny at all." Matsuda then said to Sato viciously: "When will you get free!"
"Hmm?" Sato didn't know how to answer when asked so stupidly by Matsuda.
"Date?" Yumi patted Sato's shoulder: "The attitude is so bad, Mikako shouldn't agree to him." After that, she left with her hands behind her back, hummed a little song, leaving the space for the two of them.
"The bastard Yamabe has agreed to invite us to the hot springs. Do you decide when?" Matsuda gritted his teeth when he mentioned Yamabe.
"That..." Sato thought for a moment: "It will be a while later."
"Will you wait for the New Year?" Matsuda said weakly.
"It's good, too." Sato replied: "That's good, too."
"Haha, it's such a happy suggestion." Matsuda bought a can of drinks and then poured them in one gulp. Then he wiped his mouth and was about to make a good argument with Sato, but when he looked up, Sato had already left.
"Matsuda, don't let the Memu police department find out that you are late again." Sato said and left casually.
"Matsuda, you bastard! Don't be late next time!!" Matsuda came to the class and pushed the door lightly. He was about to jump to his desk when he found a figure blocked at the door. Before he could tell who it was, he heard a loud roar.
Matsuda immediately covered his ears, squatted at the door of a lesson, and looked up at Megu: "The tall and majestic police officer, I know I'm wrong. Can I let me go in first?"
"Huh~~~ You get out of here first, I'm going to have a meeting." Memu felt that Matsuda's posture was too embarrassing. In order to preserve such a hint of face, Memu decided not to hang out with him.
"Matsuda, since you don't like this place so much, why not report it to the Ministry of Transport. Don't you have a good relationship with Miyamoto's inspector?" Shiragou bent over and said to Matsuda.
Humph, Matsuda didn't get up, and sat cross-legged in the middle of the corridor: "Sir, don't let me hear you call me Brother Matsuda and Shiraki...ah!!! If I hadn't been here for the past three years, I would have been the police department now..."
"Where are you dreaming?" Sato appeared at the door and looked down at Matsuda: "It's not the time to dream, come in quickly."
"Yes." Matsuda climbed into a lesson in shame, then sat down in his own position, and began to spend a boring day.
In the afternoon, Matsuda woke up and carefully wiped off the saliva from the table, then slowly sorted out the information and placed it.
Watching Megu concentrate on doing his own thing on his desk, Matsuda smiled and slid down from the chair, ready to leave.
Half-squatted and tiptoed to the door, Matsuda's hand had already touched the door handle, and heard Memu roaring, "What!?".
When Matsuda heard this, he was shocked. When he was about to force a breakthrough, Memu had already locked in him: "Matsuda, go out with me, a murder happened!"
"Yes, the police department." Matsuda opened all the half-opened doors, stood behind the door, put his shirt in his right hand, bowed slightly, and looked like a housekeeper: "I'm ready, the police department will set off quickly."
"Haha~~~ it's you?" When we arrived at the crime scene, Matsuda got out of the police car and saw three young friends from the teenage detective team standing on the side of the road, and came over to ask.
"Yes, Officer Matsuda." Conan, who was sitting on the phone booth, said: "After calling the police, we kept staring at the house without anyone coming in and out. That is to say..."
Before Conan finished speaking, he was caught by Matsuda and pulled him down: "Don't climb that high kid...that's right, let's go."
When I entered the house, Megu rang the doorbell first: "Hey, is anyone? We are police."
After waiting for a while, a man came out and shouted without getting angry: "Don't press it anymore, it's so noisy."
"Sorry, we are policemen." Megu took out his police officer's certificate and said, "We received a report that someone found the body here."
"Yes, it's in that bathroom." "There is a man covered in blood." The children of the Youth Detective Group said one by one.
"Corpsy?" The man's eyebrows jumped twice: "How is it possible? I have been using the bathroom just now, where is there any corpse?" After the man said, he turned his back: "The bathroom is there."
"Then please let us confirm." Megu squeezed open the man and came to the bathroom and opened the door.
"What!?" The young detectives who followed him couldn't believe it when they looked at the clean bathroom.
"I saw it, there was no corpse at all!" The man said with confidence.
"We just saw a man covered in blood lying in the bathroom..." Conan said with anger.
"We rushed over and took fifteen minutes, and hiding the body was enough for ten minutes." Matsuda squatted at the bathroom door and interrupted Conan's words.
"You, who are you?" The man immediately asked him when he heard Matsuda say this.
"The Police Department searched the police officer in the first class." Matsuda shook the police officer's certificate in his hand: "You just need to know this." As Matsuda said that, he wiped the bathroom floor with his left index finger: "You said you were taking a shower, are you showering?"
"Yes, yes." The man was stunned by Matsuda's question.
"Just rush it? No toiletries are used?" Matsuda stood up, turned to the man, pointed his left thumb at the bathroom behind him: "There is no longer the foam of the toiletries in the groove."
"I...yes, I just rushed for a while." The man thought for a while before reluctantly answering, and then asked Matsuda loudly: "Does this have anything to do with you??"
"No, no." Matsuda chuckled, "Can we check this house?"
"It's okay if you like it." The man's voice became weaker: "I'm going to go to the second floor to sleep, don't disturb me."
"I'll go up with you." Matsuda said politely.
"No need!" The man quickly turned around and said with a hint of panic: "You can search whatever you want, my brother is coming back soon. Please find him if you have any questions."
When the man went upstairs, Megu said to the police officer who came together: "Look for it quickly! You must search for this place."
"No need to be so troublesome." Matsuda leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette: "Mr. Police Department, it's better to find an assessment class to come to this bathroom to test the Lumino's reaction. Judging from the man's reaction, the body should be hidden on the second floor."
"Are you sure? Brother Matsuda." When Megu heard Matsuda say this, he asked in surprise: "Do you know where the body is?"
"How is that possible?" Matsuda said: "If I had followed up just now, I might have known where the body was, but now I'm going to let the suspect go alone, it will take some time to find it. It's really unpleasant. I know who the suspect is, but I want to let him act alone."
"Then why don't you stop him!" Megu screamed in anger by Matsuda's tone.
"Hey, now I just used some clues to reason about the assumptions, and there is no search warrant. If I force myself up, I will not find the body..." Matsuda paused: "The police officer broke into a private house without permission. If such a report is published in the newspaper tomorrow, will you be fully responsible? If so, I will go up immediately."
Megu was silent for a moment and asked again: "Is there no evidence?"
"Well, that's why the person who knows the forensics class comes." Matsuda spread his hands and replied: "I just saw that he had a problem and there was no direct evidence."
"Officer Matsuda is such a good person." "Yes, only he believes in our Youth Detective Group." What the young friends of the Youth Detective Group said while reaching Megumi's ears.
"Matsuda, you just listen to what they said and think that man has something wrong with it." Megu asked a little uncertainly.
"What?" Matsuda said angrily: "Is it so useless in your eyes? It's reasoning, reasoning!"
Speaking of this, Matsuda moved his collar: "If a policeman broke into my house with a few children and told me that someone died in my house, I would definitely kick these little devils out." After saying that, he looked at Meguri with suspicion: "Or it would be a certain incompetent policeman who believed their prank. Instead of telling the police where the bathroom where the crime was first."
Meguchi's forehead was sweating when Matsuda looked at her, and she resisted weakly: "Not everyone's personality is the same as you."
"Yes, but the statement that he was using the bathroom just now had a flaw." Matsuda still did not retract his gaze: "From the water on the bathroom floor, he shouldn't have bathed in the bathroom before opening the door, but the door was not open for a long time. What was he doing? Moreover, he said it was a shower and he shouldn't have used the bathtub, but the inside of the bathtub was wet, and he should have used it not long ago. In addition to the doubts about the toiletries and his abnormal expressions several times during the period, it is fully doubtful."
"Haha, you're looking so carefully." Megu laughed dryly.
"This should be basically what the detective should master. You will know at a glance." Matsuda said strangely, then showed a hint of anticipation: "But I am very interested in how he would hide the body."
Hehe, what country's criminal police are you talking about? Megu and Conan think this together.
ps: I said I had three months of pre-job training. I thought there would be an Internet cafe next to the school, but the recent Internet cafe actually had to take a bus. I did this every day and couldn’t hold on to the time, energy, and financial resources. The class time was too short, so I could only update it on the weekend. I apologized and it would return to normal in three months.
