Chapter 0371 - Falling Bird on the Road

Wednesday, March 26, around nine o'clock in the morning.

On the way back to 5-chome from the Muddy Temple, Sonoko asked, "What are your plans next?"

Lan asked in surprise, "Garden, aren't you going to go back?"

"I can't get out when I go back. Yuan Zi smiled, "Just one more day." ”

"Where should I go?" asked Midaiko.

"Shopping, shopping, aquariums, Disneyland, theaters, cabarets, bowling, etc. "It seems that this is all there is to it." ”

After thinking about it, Mei Daizi said: "It's not very fun, forget it, I'm in favor of going to Disneyland, and it's okay to go shopping." ”

"I think I can go to the town center, and then I can go shopping, shopping, theater, karaoke, and bowling. Lan said.

"Then go to the town center?" Sonoko asked.

"I'm okay with that. Mei Daiko said.

Maori asked, "Hey, hey, Lan, in that case, what are we going to eat at noon?" I don't care, but Conan?"

Conan puffed up his triangular eyes, don't drag me along, no, I'll go to Dr. Asasa's house.

"Well, let the little imp follow us," said the garden, "and perhaps some usefulness. ”

"What's the use?" asked Maidako, "a bag?"

"Shouting you. Conan touched Yamazaki with his elbow.

"I've heard that there are places with children that offer discounts. The garden said.

"Uh, that ......," Maori said again.

Yamazaki smiled: "I heard that Miss Yoko has been filming in the town center for the past two days. ”

"Really?" asked Maori in surprise.

Sonoko said, "By the way, the opening scene of the Night Baron is in Rice Flower Town. ”

Mori was overjoyed and said, "We'll go to the town center." ”

"Wait, uncle," said Yamazaki, "we're going back first." ”

"No problem. Maori said.

After driving safely for forty minutes, the six of them, Mori, Ran, Conan, Sonoko, Midaiko, and Yamazaki, safely got to the base and arrived in front of Medai's restaurant.

After getting out of the car, Yamazaki and Midaiko went home to say hello to their father, Ichiro Miyamoto, then took some cash, replaced the satellite phone, and then went downstairs to get in the car.

Because of the poor road, it took almost three times as long as 35 minutes for Mori and his party to reach the center of the town, and then they found that there were indeed many people here today.

After going around a big circle, I finally found a parking space, and Maori got out of the car and rushed to the shooting scene I just saw. Yamazaki, Maidako, Ran, Conan, and Sonoko go to the Center Building, Ran, Maidako, and Sonoko go to the mall, and Yamazaki and Conan pick up the newspaper and read it at the waiting area of the mall.

At half past eleven, Yamazaki received a call asking them to go to the restaurant above to book a private room.

At twelve o'clock, in the private room, Conan said, "Give me a call and ask." ”

Yamazaki pushed the phone to Conan, who thought about it and waited with his chin in his hands on it.

At 12:15 p.m., Maori called, and he got a lunch box in the crew, so he didn't have to wait for him.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them entered the restaurant, Yuan Zi was holding three sets of new cosmetics, several sets of summer clothes and shoes, Lan was holding a bottle of facial cleanser and a pair of shoes, and Mei Daiko was holding a large commera chocolate that was twenty centimeters tall, and now missing a tail and three legs.

Yuan Zi flipped the menu from beginning to end and back again, and asked, "Why aren't there any discounts?"

"With so many people, how can there be a discount. Conan said angrily.

"Ahh "I forgot, it's holiday time." ”

"Or what time do you think it is?" Conan muttered, "Skipping class?"

At half past one in the afternoon, Yamazaki was assigned to book a place in the cabaret and bowling alley, to take a place in the game room, and Conan was assigned to three cake shops spread over three floors to see if the best cakes were still in stock, if there were any reservations for the afternoon, and to buy five more ice creams by the way.

Seven or eight minutes later, Conan came back with five ice creams and reported that he could now order a cake of up to fourteen inches at half-past two, so he was assigned to order a seven-inch one, and added the task of scouting the afternoon performances in the theaters and movie theaters.

A few minutes later, Yamazaki called to report that there was no place for the cabaret and bowling alley for the time being, and that he was now occupying a space in the game room.

A few more minutes later, Conan came back breathless to report, and it turned out that neither the play nor the movie was up to date and had already been watched. So after the lunch break was over, after Ran and Sonoko had stored their things, they went to the game room with Mei Daiko and Conan.

At 2:10 p.m., Yamazaki booked a private room in the song hall ten minutes later, and at 20 o'clock, everyone entered the song hall, and Mei Daiko immediately ordered several songs for Conan to sing. At thirty-five minutes, Yamazaki took the cake he ordered.

At three o'clock, Yamazaki got a seat in the bowling alley, and Conan, who was singing again, immediately threw down the microphone and rushed over. At fifteen minutes, the three of Lan finished the private room of the song hall early and arrived at the bowling alley.

Yamazaki and Maida didn't play, and Ran, Sonoko, and Conan spent forty minutes playing three innings.

At 1:10 a.m., the garden firmly refused Lan to let Maori drive her, and took a taxi home. At fifteen minutes, the four Lan found Maori, and it happened that Miss Yoko left, so the five of them embarked on the way to return the car. Fifty points, the five people embarked on the way home, this time there was no traffic jam, but Maori and the leasing company because of the tire grinding for fifteen minutes, and finally waived a day's rent, but two new tires were paid to the leasing company.

Before five o'clock in the evening, on the way home, passing by a demolition area in 5-chome, a small bird suddenly fell on the road not far in front of them.

Looking at the sky and finding nothing unusual, Mei Daizi couldn't help but ask, "How did this bird fall?"

Looking at the bird that was picked up by Conan and held in his hand, Lan asked, "Hurt?"

"It doesn't seem to be. Before Conan could finish speaking, the bird flew up, but was immediately caught by Midaiko's hand.

"Midaiko. Lan exclaimed.

"It's fine. Mei Daiko said, then pinched the bird's neck with her left hand and examined various parts of the bird's body, "There are indeed no injuries." ”

"It's anemia. Maori laughed, "If it weren't for high blood pressure, maybe it wouldn't have been." ”

"Let it go. Lan said.

"Of course. Mei Daizi said and put her right hand at the foot of the little bird who didn't move her wings, let go of her left hand, and the little bird stood on Mei Daizi's hand for a while, spread its wings and flew away.

At this time, there was an exclamation from the old building next to it, and Conan and Mori immediately rushed over.

Mei Daizi smiled in surprise as she walked inside, "No, it's here again." ”

Lan smiled bitterly: "Maybe." ”

Yamazaki smiled: "Here, call back, we'll be there later." As he spoke, he gave the phone to Mei Daiko.

"Good. Mei Daiko said, and then looked at Maori and laughed, and Lan laughed too. Because Maori slammed into a transparent glass door at once, and then slid from above to the ground against the door.

The Administrator asked, "What is the matter with you?"

"There was a woman here who screamed just now. Maori said, "Please open the door quickly." ”

"Is that true?" the administrator was taken aback, then came out of the porter and smiled at the middle-aged man who had just returned from outside with fishing gear on his back, "You came back early today." ”

"No way, the fish are getting smarter. The middle-aged man laughed, then asked, "What's wrong?"

At this time, a woman with a panicked face opened the glass door and rushed out, "Oh no, my husband he, my husband he didn't know who was knocked down on the balcony, it seems, it seems to be dead." ”

"Don't worry, ma'am, with my detective Mori Kogoro here, everything is fine. Maori laughed, and then asked amid the exclamations of the three of them, "Ma'am, you were the one who screamed just now, right? Where do you live?"

"I live in room 701. The woman said.

Looking at the concierge's phone, Yamazaki said, "Lan, please call an ambulance and call the police." ”

"Hmm. Lan Yingsheng went.

Conan asked the caretaker, "Uncle, I just saw the name tag on the mailbox, why does it seem that there are only two families living here?"

The administrator said, "This building will be completely demolished by the end of next month, so the only ones who are still in use are the company of the owner, Mr. Inomoto, and Mr. Terazawa, who is next to me." ”

Soon after, when the group arrived in room 701, Maori stopped the caretaker from pushing the door, wrapped the handle with a handkerchief, pushed the door open himself, and then looked at the shoes on the floor of the entrance and asked, "In addition to a pair of high heels, there are two pairs of men's shoes, Mrs. Inomoto?"

Mrs. Imoto said, "There is a pair of men's shoes that I don't know whose one it is. ”

When he entered the room and went to the balcony, he found a man standing on the balcony with a man lying on the ground in front of him.

Maori probed the neck of the man lying on the ground, then shook his head at Mrs. Inomoto, and continued, "There is a visible scar on the back of the head, and there is a broken flower pot on the ground, and it seems that one of these is the murder weapon." Then he asked the man who was standing, "Did you kill Mr. Inomoto?"

"No, it's not me. The man said.

At this time, the ambulance came, and Mori asked Yamazaki to ask them to go back.

Ten minutes later, the police arrived, led by the Twilight Police Department.

After instructing his men to go down and get to work, the Twilight Police Department said to Maori, "I see you again, Maori." ”

Maori laughs, "It's my pleasure. Then he talked about it.

Soon after, forensic personnel reported that it was possible to pass.

The Twilight Police Department looked at the body and said, "The cause of death is obviously a brain contusion." ”

"My guess is that the killer killed the victim by throwing a bonsai from behind and hitting him in the back of the head," Maori said. ”

"Okay, let's check the bonsai near his head. The Twilight Police Department ordered, "See if there's any blood." ”

At this time, Conan pointed to a small gap in the balcony railing and said, "You see, this is a new one, could it be related to this incident?" ”

Maori yelled, "Little ghost." As he spoke, he went up and picked up Conan, "Damn, you want me to say it a few times, when adults are handling cases, children don't come in and intervene." Then he threw Conan into the room.

After gathering everyone, the Twilight Police Department recorded and said, "The victim, Mr. Ryusuke Imoto, the president of a real estate company, died from a brain contusion. The body was found by his wife, Mrs. Takako Inomoto, and it was you who arrived at the scene before the Maori brothers arrived......," he said, looking at the man who had gone to the balcony first.

The man said, "My name is Tetsuo Tsuchihashi, and I am currently running an import and export grocery company, and I was originally Mr. Inomoto's boss and the introduction of his husband and wife, and I am here to meet him today for work. ”

The Twilight Police Department looked at Mr. Terasawa and asked, "Then may I ask who you are?"

Mr. Terazawa said, "My name is Norio Terazawa, and I now live on the fifth floor of this apartment, and I used to run a fishing tackle shop. ”

"Didn't you do it before?" asked the Dusk Police Department.

Norio Terazawa said angrily: "My store has been robbed, it was robbed by this guy Ryusuke Imoto, and it was a legal loophole to succeed." Then he looked at Tetsuo Tsuchihashi and Takako Imoto and said, "Ryusuke Imoto, he is not worthy of being a human being at all, in my opinion, these two of them must have had something similar to me with him, don't believe you to ask." ”

The Dusk Police Department asked, "Is that so, please tell me the truth." ”

Tetsuo Tsuchihashi said, "Although I am the introducer of Mr. and Mrs. Imoto, I still have to bring up this matter, Mr. Imoto and Mrs. Imoto are currently talking about divorce, and there is a dispute over alimony, and once Mr. Imoto dies, Mrs. Imoto will receive a large amount of inheritance." ”

"What are you talking about, your own company didn't come here to borrow money from my husband several times a while ago because it couldn't make money, and then he refused," Takako Imoto said angrily, "I think it's because Ryusuke doesn't lend you money, so you killed him in a fit of anger." ”

"What are you talking about!" Tetsuo Tsuchihashi said angrily.

"Alright, alright, please dissipate your anger first. The Twilight Police Department said, then asked the administrator, "Excuse me, is the only entrance and exit to and from this apartment that can be entered and exited?"

"Yes, that's right. The administrator said. ……
