Chapter 1113 I Am Her Father
Did Administrator Matsumoto personally order it?
Nobuhiro silently kept this message in his heart.
However, this alone does not mean that Manager Matsumoto must be related to the organization. Transferring to the Metropolitan Police Department is only the first step. Where Yamada Rokuha goes from now on is the most critical.
Perhaps Nobuhiro can use these clues to uncover the organization's hidden flaws in the police system.
"ah--"
Suddenly, a scream came from upstairs.
Nobushige, Hagiwara Chisuke and others jumped up almost immediately.
This familiar cry is almost a daily necessity for the residents of Miwa Town, and they will feel panicked any day without it.
They quickly ran upstairs, deciding to check out the situation before considering calling the police.
An auction was being held in the banquet hall on the second floor. The guests coming in and out were all sitting on the floor in suits, leather shoes, long skirts, and Nobuhiro's outfits were incompatible with them. However, with the police IDs of Hagiwara Chisu and Yamada Rokuha, they arrived at the incident site unimpeded.
Great, now it's time to call it the crime scene.
Against the backdrop of a pure black stage curtain, a woman wearing a fiery red skirt hung in the air, her face turned blue, and she was obviously not breathing. Standing below, you can vaguely see the metal wire wrapped around her neck. The thin metal wire has been deeply embedded in the woman's flesh and blood, and is still dripping blood.
Nobuhiro's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He knows her.
"Iori! Iori!!" A man next to him screamed in pain, "Put down Iori quickly, what are you doing standing still?"
A woman next to her who was also wearing a dress curled her lips: "Don't you know you have to protect the scene before the police come? What if you put it down casually and destroy the evidence left by the murderer?"
"Miyu Kohashi, how can you be so vicious? Are you going to watch Iori's head being severed alive?!"
"Stop arguing." Hagiwara Chisugu frowned and scolded coldly, "Take photos to record the scene, and then put the deceased down. Remember to be careful."
"Yes!" The man she pointed at subconsciously responded.
Before he realized something was wrong, Nobushige handed over a pair of white gloves.
The man was even more confused: "Why do you have such a thing?"
Nobushige pointed his chin in the direction of Hagiwara Chisato: "The lady gave it to me. She and her friends are both police officers."
The man put on his gloves in a daze, then followed Nobushige, stepped on the ladder, loosened the metal wire wrapped around Iori Tomizawa's neck, and lowered her down.
Nobushige's eyes fell on the cello placed in the corner of the lift platform, and his expression became more solemn.
On the other side, Yamada Rokuha had already taken photos of all the details that should be recorded at the scene. The two policewomen worked together, and with the cooperation of the employees of the Rice Flower Hotel, they quickly stabilized the guests in the banquet hall.
Their ability to stabilize the situation so quickly also depends on the management system of the Rice Flower Restaurant that has gradually matured after a series of murder cases and sudden collective incidents. Not to mention anything else, the average detective level of these waiters at the Rice Flower Restaurant, and their proficiency in on-site protection and order maintenance is far beyond that of ordinary detectives, and they are not far away from high school student detectives.
By the time Officer Megure arrived for questioning, the situation at the crime scene was already clear.
"Well done." Megure Police Department praised Yamada Rokuha without hesitation.
The next second, he saw Asano Nobushige standing aside.
"Ahem, Brother Asano." Megure Police Department cleared his throat, "It's not peaceful in Tokyo recently, so you and Brother Mori just stay in the office and don't wander around!"
Nobuhiro: "..."
Why does he feel that his image in the eyes of the Memu Police Department is not quite right?
The God of Death is obviously that brat from Edogawa Conan, right? !
"So, who was the first person to discover it?" Officer Megure looked around and asked.
The woman in the dress stood up and said, "It's me."
Officer Megure looked at her: "Oh, you are?"
"My name is Miyu Kobashi, and like Iori, I'm both a cellist." The woman explained, "Iori was the first to perform today, and I was in line behind her. But after waiting for a long time, it was already past the performance time. Iori still didn’t show up. The host asked me to go backstage and take a look, and I saw Iori as soon as I opened the door..."
Xiaobashi Weiyu sobbed a few times: "It's so terrible. Iori is such a good girl, who is so cruel to let her die in such a tragic way?"
"Please grief……"
"That's enough, Xiaoqiao Weiyu! Put away your hypocritical tears!" The man who had quarreled with Xiaoqiao Weiyu cursed again, "Ask everyone here if it is what you want Yi to do most. Weaving to death?"
Xiaobashi Weiyu's face froze: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I want Iori to die??"
"Please wait a moment." The interrupted officer Megure looked at the man with an unkind expression, "Who are you?"
"I am Iori's fiancé, Nara Akihisa."
While the police were questioning Miyu Kobashi and Akihisa Nara, Nobushige was not idle either. He carefully investigated Tomizawa Iori and the surrounding situation.
The cello on the lifting platform was the one he had just given to Iori Tomizawa today. It was very new, but for some reason it was missing a string.
Iori Tomizawa was hung by a metal wire on the steel frame next to the lifting platform. The steel frame had wear marks, which should be caused by the friction of the metal wire.
Judging from the scars on Tomizawa Iori's neck, the fatal metal wire was about the same thickness as a piano string, and was most likely the missing string on the cello. However, the string has been recovered by the police as a murder weapon, and Nobuhiro needs to find an excuse to take a look.
At this time, he had to lament the benefits of having Conan by his side. As soon as the protagonist's halo is turned on, all NPCs will take the initiative to send information.
Just as Nobuhiro was thinking, a man squeezed past him with a very rude movement. However, Nobuhiro had no intention of quarreling with others over these trivial matters, not to mention that the other party was still an old man.
That person wasn't targeting Nobuhiro, because he did this to everyone who stood in his way.
He walked all the way to Officer Megure, pointed at Nara Akihisa's nose and began to scold: "Don't cry like a cat and pretend to be compassionate! Why do you have the nerve to call yourself Iori's fiancé? Has Iori agreed to your proposal? Cough! Ahem..."
The old man seemed to be in poor health. He was coughing and wheezing without saying a few words.
Nobushige said how he always felt like something was missing before, but it turned out that what was missing was a suspect.
Now I finally got together to choose one of the three.
Without the need for Officer Megure to give orders, Rokuha Yamada had already found a new target with the police manual: "Hello, old man, are you Miss Tomizawa Iori's..."
"I am her father."
Yamada Rokuha choked: "You are Miss Tomizawa Iori's father, right?"
"My late wife was Iori's biological mother, so I can be considered half of her father."
Yamada Rokuha understood: "Stepfather."
