Chapter 37 Only the murder weapon can determine the culprit
"I'll confirm again. The three of you are here to attend the engagement party of the friend, the victim, Miss Xun. In order to give her a surprise, she went to the bathroom to change her clothes just now while she was taking a shower, right?" Megu nodded when he saw the three beauties: "Your order is Miss Yoko Okino, Miss Yuki Gono, and finally Miss Hiromi Hoshino, right? The three of them changed their clothes, and the agent Mr. Matsu went to the bathroom to call the victim, but did not respond. Finally, her fiancé Kenzaki opened the bathroom door. He found that Miss Xun had bleeding from his neck and fainted in the bathroom. That's it?"
"Yes." Kenzaki, who was asked at the end, said.
"Then, another devilish accidental detective who appeared here and attracted the unfortunate incident. Are you invited? "Megu turned to Maori, his tone was not so polite.
"Don't say that I'm like a plague god, police department." Kogoro said embarrassedly. It's rare for Miss Yoko to invite him. This reputation has entered her heart. Can she still have fun together in the future?
"Aren't you?" Matsuda, who was at the door, looked down and looked at something: "If you stay in another place, you will harm others. How many days did you say you have only been back in Tokyo? You can't travel well in another place?"
"Hey, except for Mr. Xiong who accompanied the victim to the hospital, the rest of the people did not leave the room, right?" After Matsuda got the answer, he pointed to the door of the entrance: "Is this kind of thing here at the beginning?"
"No, I was outside the door." Kogoro stepped forward and said, "After the emergency personnel arrived, they put all these things here."
"That's it." Matsuda took out his white gloves and put them on, picked up the handkerchief on the ground: "Is it used to anesthetize the victims?" He handed it to Meguro who was squatting next to him and picked up a small bottle: "Let the forensic class check it out, it should be anesthetic."
"Who will attack Miss Xun?" Xiaolan couldn't listen and said worriedly as she called out to the victim.
"It must be the one who harassed her, the scum who has a low character when ringing the doorbell randomly." Fiancé Kenzaki said: "That scum is not just a prank on ringing the doorbell. Every time he leaves a note, 'I will come again', 'I will come again', 'I will come when I die', which is more terrifying every time."
Is the prank stalker? Matsuda curled his lips, but this cannot rule out the insiders. If it were an outsider, how could the handkerchiefs and empty medicine bottles that were conveniently carried on the scene? Moreover, the blood that fell to the ground only extended to the door, and it was not like running in a bloody raincoat, but...the illusion caused by deliberately slapping the raincoat and letting the blood drip on the ground.
The most important thing is that since Conan has appeared in this incident, it must be not a simple murder in the room. The prisoner must be among the victim's friends. If an acquaintance is asked, it is quite simple to call the victim out of the bathroom and take the opportunity to anesthetize.
There are only three former teammates and agents who have time to commit the crime. Could it be that the agent turned from love to hate because of her engagement? But if it is revenge, it is also his fiancé Kenzaki. Matsuda's malicious guess. The entertainment industry is really a terrible place.
Just as Matsuda was thinking about things in a mess, Megu and the others also straightened out their ideas with the help of Conan and clarified the truth that the murderer was in it.
"Before we are determined to be suspicious, there is something to confirm." Hiromi Hoshino stood up, like a firefly in the dark: "Where is the weapon? Where is the knife that cuts the smoked throat? If it is in this room, it proves that the murderer is between us. If not, the murderer is an outsider. Because there is no murderer, it will waste time hiding the weapon before leaving, right? Even if there is less blood, the heme contained in it will have blood reactions. If it is in this room, it will not be hidden."
Well? Who is this woman? No one present expected that Hiromi Hoshino would talk freely. This is a quality that Kenzaki Shou, who was very successful in interpreting the famous detective Zuo Wen, did not possess.
I'll go! Matsuda slapped his forehead and pointed at Hoshino and said, "So it's you!"
"Hmm? Does Officer Matsuda know her?" Everyone present pricked up their ears and planned to hear about any gossip.
"It's the heroine of the chess TV series that is being broadcast recently." Matsuda walked over and looked at it pickyly: "I didn't even recognize the weird clothes I just wore. I like your character very much. What's your name?"
"Is that so? Thank you for your appreciation." Hoshino was not polite. I don't know how many of them encountered, but I don't know my name but I liked my own name. It's really rare.
Go! So that's how it is. Everyone was defeated by Matsuda.
"How did you know this?" Megu asked cautiously.
"I was influenced by someone, so I was fascinated by these detective stories," Hoshino said.
That's it. Matsuda looked at Kenzaki next to Hoshino. Is it detective Zuo Wenzi? So it's this, what's this called? Ah, the girl likes Kenzaki, so she angrily murdered her ex-girlfriend who was engaged to Kenzaki?
Speaking of which, this kind of murder motive is very common in the world of detectives. I still remember that Conan encountered similar things in New York when he was Shinichi Kudo. It was indeed a terrible entertainment industry.
The first thing to do when looking for a murder weapon is to search for the body. When arranging Takagi to search for Kenzaki, Takagi rarely asked a serious matter: "What if the prisoner is Mr. Xiong, the agent in the hospital?"
"That little ghost Conan has already told the ambulance staff. Pay attention to Mizuho. If there is any abnormality, he will report it." Although Matsuda said to Takagi, his eyes were aimed at a room where Hoshino was being stripped naked by a female policewoman. Uh, it was a search weapon.
"Huh? How did Officer Matsuda know?" Takagi asked curiously.
"Because I contacted Gutu Hospital on the way here." Matsuda turned his head impatiently and glared at Takagi: "You haven't gone to take off this man's clothes yet?"
Hey, after all, I am an idol, don’t say that in front of me. Kenzaki was speechless.
"I remember Sister Xue also played Detective Zuo Wenzi?" Conan saw Hoshino coming out, and when Yuki Yuki walked in, he asked Yoko next to him.
"Yes, it's the female reporter who was entangled with Zuo Wenzi. She was originally played by Xue, but she withdrew because she was taken care of the hospitalized father." Yoko began to reveal the news with big mouth: "It was changed to Sumi, but at the beginning, the one who called the most was Kuromi. It was Maki's strong recommendation that Sumi decided to decide this role."
Is that true? Did all three women have the opportunity to play the heroine of that detective drama? Matsuda, who was on the side, also heard it.
"Is the weapon still not found?" Megu was the police department after all. After Takagi and his team were busy for most of the night, they just listened to the report results.
"Yes, indoors, drains, and everyone did a detailed investigation." Takagi answered seriously.
"Have they checked their personal belongings?" asked Megu.
"Their jewelry has been checked in detail. Miss Gono's fake nails, Miss Hoshino's earrings and Mr. Kenzaki's necklace have all been checked." Takagi didn't show any water: "The search officers also went to the hospital, and Mr. Maki's glasses were checked carefully."
"If you say so, is the prisoner really an outsider?" Megu had to consider another situation.
It's not outsiders. There are so many people in the house, and the chances of being discovered are too high. Matsuda denies Megu's reasoning in his heart.
"Police Department, we found a wiretap in the victim's room, hidden inside the doll, and there were traces of being turned over in the cabinet." At this time, two police officers came over to report the latest discovery.
"If you say so, even if you are outside, can the prisoner grasp the victim's movements?" Memu pondered.
I'll go, is this a slap in the face? Matsuda just denied Megu's random reasoning. But if this was such a high-level eavesdropping device, it could be placed in the bedroom to grasp all the movements of the victim in the whole room. At that time, the victim should be entertaining friends. Even if he went to the bathroom, he would go back to the bedroom to get clothes. Do he have to talk to himself in the bedroom and tell the prisoner to take a shower? And the guests were watching detective dramas in the living room?
The prisoners must be among those three, not between the two. Matsuda is very sure, either Yuki Gono or Kumi Hoshino.
Because he vaguely remembered that although it was not this incident, Yoko Okino was a regular idol, and Shou Kenzaki seemed to have made guest appearances several times later. This is where the confidence of the famous detective came from.
The bedroom? Sure enough, I haven't seen it. Matsuda deliberately avoided it just now, thinking that there was no clue, so she should not enter the girl's bedroom casually. Just as Matsuda was about to go, Conan slipped in first.
Is this? When Conan flipped through the drawer and found a photo, he was shocked by the content on it.
"Who is this man?" Matsuda took the photo from behind Conan: "Women, it should be the victim Kusato Sumi."
"It's you!" Conan turned around and saw Matsuda's face full of unruly writing, and his mouth twitched and said it truthfully: "That is Miss Xun's agent, Mr. Maki."
"Agent? It's so close." Since he had already entered the girl's bedroom, Matsuda's reserve was thrown away and sat on Kuro's bed: "It seems that this agent was the murderous move because of love and hatred. If the weapon was probably thrown away when others were not paying attention."
"How could you say such irresponsible words?" Conan said angrily.
"As a policeman, you shouldn't, so for the sake of the truth, you should tell me all the things you know, little kid."
