Chapter 97

Anxi Jingzi's face changed slightly, she bowed to the guests apologetically, and then ran towards the direction of the voice.

Conan and Mori Kogoro also rushed over immediately.

"The people in Japan are really enthusiastic, and they should also be concerned about this kind of thing." Sira looked at Xinfan, "You can tell from the voice just now that the body has been found. If the gangster hasn't left, it's too dangerous."

A string of question marks floated on Xinfan's forehead.

No, why is Sila so familiar with the screams of discovering corpses? ?

Seemingly understanding the look in the eyes of the boss, Sira explained: "Although you will retreat neatly after every action, there are always some members who like to stay nearby and watch the terrified expressions of passers-by. I have acted with many members, I’ve heard this voice many times.”

...

How could anyone enjoy hearing screams of terror?

Xin Fan filtered in his mind the candidates who had acted with Silla and who might have such a morbid preference, and found that even if there were candidates, he was definitely not familiar with him, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Then let's go and see."

In Conan's eyes, Nobushige Asano is an amateur detective who has a certain interest in solving crimes, and is full of obsession with finding evidence. At this time, if he didn't rush to the scene of the crime before he could react, then his character design might be down.

Xinfan and Sira followed the lively crowd to the eighth box.

It is located on both sides of the restaurant from the No. 1 box where they are, and it is the closest to the main entrance. While observing the surrounding environment and layout, Xin Fan reasoned and simulated the murderer's methods in his mind.

Although he already had a good impression of the case, he still couldn't remember the specific details.

When Xin Fan arrived at Box 8, Mori Kogoro was busy maintaining order and stabilizing the mood of the guests, and only Conan was left in the room touching his chin and walking around the corpse.

Xin Fan whispered silently: "Five, four, three..."

Sira gave him a suspicious look.

"...two, one."

"boom!!"

Mori Kogoro punched Conan on the forehead: "How many times have I told you?! Don't wander around the murder scene!!"

Conan hangs in mid-air with stars in his eyes, looking hopeless.

"Let me watch him." Xinfan rescued Conan from Mori Kogoro, "The police will come soon and you will be involved in solving the case, so you should be very busy."

Mori Kogoro nodded in satisfaction: "Keep an eye on this brat, don't let him get close to the corpse."

"Okay. But as your agent, I also want to learn how to be an excellent detective." Xinfan's eyes were full of admiration just right, and he successfully satisfied the uncle's vanity, and was able to bring a child to stay with him. at the crime scene.

...

Police officer Mumu and his subordinates rushed to Liushuiting restaurant soon.

After a brief investigation, a young police officer said to the text written in the manual: "The deceased is Keiji Jintian, an associate professor of physics at Jomon University, aged 29. His heart was stabbed with a dagger. It should be died instantly..."

Hearing this, Xinfan raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise.

Became an associate professor at the age of 29, this Mr. Jintian seems to be a scientific research genius? ?

However, in view of the prerequisite that he is dead, Xinfan is more inclined that he actually used some invisible means to achieve his current achievements.

No, it's not that it's not time to report, the murderer's hatred for him will be as deep as the crimes he has done before.

"These two are Professor Yan Jian and Lecturer Arai who taught at the same university as the deceased."

Classic alternative game.

Xinfan paid special attention to the two acquaintances of the deceased standing over there.

Professor Yan Jian is short and thin. At this moment, perhaps because of the misfortune of the younger generation, his expression was very depressed and nervous, his brows were deeply frowned, and his voice seemed old and feeble: "We are here today to celebrate Jin Tian's promotion to associate professor. I was promoted to this position, and this kind of thing happened..."

A drop of cold sweat hung on Professor Yan Jian's cheek, making Xin Fandu look at him twice.

Well, this behavior is suspicious. Even if it wasn't the murderer, he must know something.

but……

He turned his eyes to another person who was drenched in cold sweat.

"Then you just happened to be here?" Officer Megure glanced at Kogoro Mori contemptuously.

"That's right!" Uncle Mori immediately stood at attention, "That's me, Detective Mori Kogoro, Police Officer Megure!"

Police officer Megure was very helpless to this subordinate who had been out of tune all the time, he looked at Nobushige again: "Brother Asano, you are here too."

Xin Fan took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over: "I came here for lunch with the staff of the music classroom. This is my business card with the address of the music classroom on it. You can think about it, learning music is a good way to relieve stress and relax. It is especially suitable for middle-aged men like you who have heavy work tasks and work overtime every day."

Officer Meguro: "...Thank you so much."

Although he seriously condemned this behavior of promoting educational products at the scene of the crime, he still couldn't help but took the business card and kept it close to him.

There is no way, the Tokyo police are under a lot of pressure, this is a fact recognized by the whole of Japan.

"Ahem, let's get down to business." Officer Mumu saw that many onlookers were staring at him, and quickly changed the subject, "You were the first to find the body, Miss Anxi Jingzi?"

"No, it's the clerk in the store." Kyoko Anzai said in shock, "I went over to look after hearing the screams, and Mr. Jintian had already collapsed unconscious in the eighth box."

Mori Kogoro frowned: "But why did Mr. Jintian go to Box No. 8?"

"Yes, yes." Although Conan obediently stayed by Xinfan's side, his attention was always on the case. "At the front desk, he clearly said that he didn't reserve a box, right?"

"Well, I also find it very strange." Anxi Kyoko recalled, "But when I was busy at the front desk, I saw Mr. Jintian walking to the eighth box, and I asked him. Mr. Jintian said that he had an appointment here with someone else. .So I didn't take it to heart."

"So, he made a private appointment here with someone else, and was killed by the other party?" Mori Kogoro rubbed his chin and thought, "Did you see any suspicious guy at the front desk?"

Anxi Jingzi shook her head: "No."

Police Officer Megure also said: "Just now I have asked people to go to each box to check, except for the No. Saw people passing by."

"What about the waterway?" Mori Kogoro's eyes lit up, "It's entirely possible to go by water, right?"
