Chapter 3 It’s Broken, Conan Has Used His Powers
Just like Conan's original trajectory, because the case was not complicated, Conan easily solved the whole case.
After everything calmed down, Conan and others returned to the hotel.
Night.
It was cold.
Xiaosong woke up from the cold, and found that the quilt was kicked away by himself when he woke up.
It happened that he had to pee, so Xiaosong ran to the toilet.
At the corner of the corridor, a man suddenly jumped out.
Xiaochuan Yan, Xiaosong's second uncle, an employee, single, currently living in Xiaosong's house, often helps in the hotel.
"Stinky boy, you scared me." Xiaochuan Yan hurriedly dodged to avoid stepping on Xiaosong, and then continued:
"Forget it, go to the toilet quickly, don't pee in your pants."
Xiaosong nodded and ran to the toilet without saying a word.
When he came out, Xiaochuan Yan's figure had disappeared in the corridor.
Xiaosong didn't care, he shrank back into the quilt and fell asleep.
His health is so good now that he can fall asleep right away.
It was early in the morning, and the sky was just getting light.
Most people were still in deep sleep, but a scream was heard in the hotel.
"Ah!!!"
The piercing scream reached the backyard, and even woke up Xiaosong, who had a good sleep quality.
The room opposite the courtyard suddenly opened, and Xiaochuan Jing hurriedly put on his clothes, wondering:
"What happened?"
"I don't know, let's go and see." Another beautiful woman came out of the room.
Xiaochuan Yuki, Xiaosong's mother.
The couple did not hesitate and ran forward.
Xiaosong saw the two people leave through the crack in the door, and was shocked.
It's bad, could Conan have used his power?
The more he thought about it, the worse it felt. Xiaosong quickly crawled out of the quilt and hurried to the front yard.
Front yard.
Maori Kogoro rushed to the scene as soon as he heard the piercing scream.
The screamer was a girl who looked to be in her twenties.
The girl slumped on the ground, her fingertips trembling as she pointed into the room.
Conan ran faster, and when he arrived at the door of the room, he found a man lying on the bed.
The man's face was pale, his skin was slightly cold, and there were rope marks on his neck.
Dead!
Maori Kogoro also noticed this, and blurted out "It's a murder! Call the police, Ran!"
Ran, who was standing by, heard this and immediately ran to call the police.
She was used to it and knew the next process very well.
The late Ogawa couple heard this, and their faces were full of astonishment, exclaiming: "Murder?!"
The movement here attracted the attention of others, causing many people to stand around.
When Xiaosong ran over, the surroundings were already surrounded by people.
Good guy, I never expected that you would actually turn your head back to grab me.
Xiaosong was a little speechless. Sure enough, he couldn't let his guard down. It would be better to send these two away early.
It's been less than two days, and two people have died. If they stay any longer, his family will be wiped out.
But at least it's not his turn yet, which is a good thing.
Inspector Megure came quickly and immediately started investigating the deceased.
The deceased's name is Yamashiro Jiro, a frequent visitor to the hot spring hotel, and Xiaosong has an impression of him.
The cause of death is suffocation, and the rope marks on the neck are the best proof.
The preliminary judgment is that the time of death should be around 12 o'clock last night.
Around 12 o'clock is exactly the time when Maori and his team are solving the case outside.
Good guy, it's still seamless, one died before the first foot, and another died immediately after the second foot.
This also excludes the possibility that the crew members are the murderers. After all, the other crew members were at the shrine outside at the time, listening to Maori's reasoning at close range.
The only strange thing is the death of the deceased. Normally, the neck of a strangled person is under pressure, the mouth will open, and then the tongue will spit out.
This is also why hanged ghosts have a long tongue.
But now the deceased looked very peaceful, and there was no sign of resistance, as if he had died in his sleep.
According to the testimony, the deceased did not drink much last night. If someone really strangled the deceased, the deceased should have woken up and resisted.
However, it is not ruled out that the deceased was sleeping very soundly.
"Okay, did anyone see anyone come to this room last night?" Officer Megure asked the others around him directly.
Ogawa Jing silently raised his hand and said, "I came here. I came to deliver bedding to Mr. Yamashita at about twelve o'clock last night."
"What? Come and tell me in detail." Megure waved to Ogawa Jing.
Komatsu immediately noticed something was wrong. How could it be such a coincidence?
Could it be coming to his home?
Thinking of this, Komatsu could not sit still and disappeared directly in the crowd.
Ogawa Jing cooperated with Megure to make a confession.
At that time, he was also scolded by the deceased, and then he put the bedding at the door and left.
After Megure understood, he immediately couldn't figure it out.
"Strange, there is only one set of bedding in the room."
According to what Ogawa Jing said, there should be another set of changed bedding in the room.
Just as Higurashi was thinking, Conan sneaked into the scene again.
It's so strange, how come the sideburns and eyebrows of the deceased are stuck together.
And why did the deceased not resist after being strangled.
Conan began to think about the inevitable relationship between the two.
Just then, the murder weapon was found.
"Inspector Megure, the rope used to kill the victim was found in the warehouse, and there are fingerprints on it."
The uncle from the Identification Department brought a piece of rope, which was put in a plastic bag of evidence.
"Really? Extract the fingerprints as soon as possible!" Megure was very surprised.
As long as the fingerprints are extracted and then compared, we can know who the murderer is.
"It seems that it is not my turn to appear this time." Maori said in a boastful tone.
Hey, uncle...
Conan's mouth twitched constantly.
As the most powerful department in Conan's world, the Identification Department has always acted very quickly.
There was only one person's fingerprint on the rope. After extracting it, it began to be compared with everyone present one by one.
The results came out quickly, and there was only one truth.
"The criminal is you." Megure was very serious, and his index finger pointed at Kei Ogawa.
"Kei Ogawa!"
Kei Ogawa was stunned and stood there. "Ah? Me?"
I am the criminal?
"It's impossible, Inspector, you must investigate it clearly. I didn't kill anyone, absolutely not." After Ogawa Jing reacted, he hurriedly defended himself.
Ogawa Yuki didn't believe that her husband would be the murderer, and hurriedly said: "Inspector, this is my family's rope. It should be reasonable to have my husband's fingerprints."
"Madam, your warehouse has been rarely used, and the things inside are covered with a thick layer of dust. That is to say, if this rope is still in the warehouse, it should not have your husband's fingerprints."
"This..." Ogawa Yuki couldn't answer.
Because Inspector Megure was right, the warehouse had not been used for many years.
"Okay, if you have anything to say, come to the police station with me." Megure directly handcuffed Ogawa Jing.
Ogawa Jing was still explaining, but in the face of the fact that the evidence was conclusive, everything seemed very pale, and Ogawa Yan comforted the grieving mother Komatsu on the side.
Just as Ogawa Jing was about to be taken away, a voice suddenly rang out.
"I have evidence to prove that my father is innocent!"
