Chapter 2136: The Murder Weapon in the Cabaret
Friday, June 20th, evening, Mei Dai Restaurant.
The investigation into the cabaret murder has not progressed, and Mori, Eiyu Hondo, Ran, Sonoko, and Conan are taken downstairs by Officer Takagi to the Maori Detective Agency, and they simply come to eat together.
However, Hondo Eiyu was discovered by Mei Daiko, and he was arrested and sent to work without eating.
It wasn't until halftime that Eiyu Hondo was idle and had a late dinner.
Yamazaki also took a break and went to the front to sit down and chat with Mori and the others.
Yamazaki knew the situation, but after thinking about it, he didn't think of a good way for a while, "The current breakthrough is probably the identity of the deceased." β
Yuan Zi pondered: "Actually, there is another question, what did the murderer use to kill the murderer, and where is the murder weapon." β
Lan smiled: "Officer Takagi even searched for the toilet in the bathroom, but he didn't find it." β
Yamazaki sighed: "It's hard to say, a sharp thing can cut people's throats, and it's not so easy to find them when they hide them, cracks in the walls, etc." β
Conan pondered: "Actually, there is another one, that is, the waiter in the song hall, and he also has no alibi. β
Maori said angrily: "Stupid, he has surveillance video." β
Conan said, "You can do your hands and feet. β
Yamazaki shook his head and said, "No, if he wants to kill someone, he won't choose to do it in the song hall." β
Conan said: "Maybe it was because of this that he deliberately chose to do it in the song hall, so the deceased deliberately did not bring his identity documents, so that the police could not find out their relationship for a while." β
"You mean he has time to escape?" Maori said angrily, "stupid, the police are not stupid, every one of them is being watched, you just don't need to be watched." β
Yamazaki smiled: "That's not wrong at all, if the murderer is really a song hall attendant, I'm afraid he will scratch the face of the deceased and make it unrecognizable." β
Ke pondered and said: "That is, someone conspired with the waiter in the song hall, and the murderer left after entering the song hall." β
"Well, it's possible. Lan said.
Yamazaki smiled: "It's still the same sentence......"
"There's no need to do it in a cabaret. Sonoko pondered, "So, I feel more and more suspicious that Kyota Honma." β
"Why?" asked Ran, "he's not lying." β
"I don't know," said Yuanzi, pouting, "but I just think there's something wrong with him." β
Yamazaki said: "The reason is that we, as well as Mr. Motojiji and Mr. Kunio Tamai, are all nearby, and although it is a whim to go to that song hall, it is nearby." β
"Compared to him, the odds of us choosing to go to that song hall are very high, and we just pick the song hall in Rice Flower Town. β
"And he deliberately found a song hall far away from the company in order to avoid his colleagues, but there are so many song halls in Tokyo, he doesn't have to pick any one here, right?"
But he chose this place, and it was in this random song hall that he encountered a murder incident, this kind of coincidence is too much of a coincidence. β
Yuan Zi high-fived and said: "Yes, yes, yes, that's it, this is too coincidental, so clever that it looks like he did it." β
Conan's heart moved, and he realized that he was negligent again, because he often encountered events, so he ignored the problem.
Lan pondered, "You can't say that, we always encounter incidents. β
Yuanzi said with a smile: "That's because your father, what he said is good is to share luck, and what he said is bad is contagion, in short, the incident is a specialty of your family." β
"Garden. Lan was a little dissatisfied.
Maori straightened his triangular eyes and was speechless, because there was no way to refute it.
After that, Yuanzi took Lan to the back and discussed with Mei Daizi about a trip to China.
However, to the silence of the two, Mei Daiko is not interested in traveling at all, and her goal is one - to play games. β¦β¦
Maori and his party stayed until the night, and did not return until after supper.
Mei Daizi sent her three wives, the three Tarhan sisters, home, and by the way, she went up a little bit of the garden, and called a taxi for her on the way, and the car was paid by the garden.
And Hondo Eiyu simply slept at Miyamoto's house, and made a bunk in Yamazaki's room so as not to rush home again, and then rushed over to the Maori detective office tomorrow to write a report on the incident at the karaoke. β¦β¦
June 21, morning.
Due to the fact that Mei Daiko slept too late, the Miyamoto family did not eat in the morning, and Yamazaki and Hondo Eiyu went to the Maori house to have breakfast after they got up.
Then, let's go to the Maori detective agency to write a report on the cabaret incident, reorganize all the things, and see if there are any missing and negligent details.
During the discussion, Officer Takagi called to ask Mori to pass, and yesterday's cabaret incident took a new turn. β¦β¦
Metropolitan Police Department, a conference room.
With the approval of the Twilight Police Department, Officer Takagi presents new clues to Mori and his party.
"We scanned the deceased's fingerprints into the computer, compared them with the files in the database, and found out the identity of the deceased. β
The deceased's name is Mao Tingxun, 46 years old, unemployed, who claimed to be a freelancer who works to connect with foreign buyers through the Internet and help foreigners buy various local goods on their behalf, and earn the difference in price. β
"Don't talk about these things," Maori asked, "why did he end up in the police files, and did he have any criminal record?"
Officer Takagi said, "About a year ago, he was investigated as a suspect in a kidnapping homicide. β
"The deceased was a four-year-old child whose head was smashed with a blunt object. β
Maori smiled: "That's revenge, the murderer must be the child's father or something, it's simple, just look at the child's name." β
The Twilight Police Department said in a deep voice: "That kid's surname is Suzuki, and among all the people involved in this case, the only one surnamed Suzuki is Suzuki Sonoko." β
"How is that possible?" Lan hurriedly waved his hand, "It can't be a garden anymore." β
Maori asked, "Could it be other relatives?"
"This is yet to be investigated. The Dusk Police Department said.
Conan asked, "Now, what's going on with the kids?"
Officer Takagi looked at the Twilight Police Department, got his approval, and told the story of the incident.
More than a year ago, Mr. Suzuki came to the police to report that his son had suddenly disappeared, but the police did not find him, so he released a missing person notice.
A few days later, someone came to report that the body of a child had been found.
"The one who reported the crime was the murderer. β
"No, it's the owner of a cabaret who reported the crime," the Dusk Police Department said in a deep voice, "I won't say the specifics, it's not suitable for minors to know, if you want to know, Brother Maori, let's say it privately, in short, the murderer's methods are very cruel." β
"Okay. Maori said.
Conan was speechless, he wanted to vomit blood, he didn't play like this, he wanted to scratch a kitten now, itchy.
Officer Takagi said, "The police reviewed the video footage and confirmed the people who entered and exited the song hall according to the time of the deceased's death, and found many suspects, all of whom were carrying containers that could hold small children. β
Among them was Mao Tingxun, but there is no evidence that he ever went in and out with a murder weapon, and the murder weapon was not found in his apartment. β
"Others are in a similar situation, and in the end, due to the lack of sufficient evidence, the suspect cannot be found, and the matter is still unresolved. β
Conan asked, "What is the murder weapon, haven't you found it?"
Officer Takagi said, "According to the wounds, the murder weapon was a metal object in the shape of a pin, with some uneven horizontal planes and rounded wounds. β
Maori pondered, "What is this?" β
Conan asked, "What kind of arc, how big is it?" β
Officer Takagi said, "The calculated diameter is about 24 millimeters, and there are three arcs on the contact surface, all of which are about 24 millimeters in diameter. β
Maori pondered, "What is this?"
"I don't know. Officer Takagi shook his head.
Conan asked, "Can you show me a picture of the wound?"
"No, I'll draw it for you. "Officer Takagi drew a diagram showing that the wound was triangular in shape, but the three corners were three arcs.
Hondo Eiyu pondered, "Is this a round-headed hammer?"
"Is there a hammer like this?" Lan couldn't think.
Yamazaki was helpless, "Well, can you put aside the previous events and talk about the current events first, okay?"
Eiyu Hondo said: "Perhaps, the murder weapon used by this murderer is the same. β
Maori shouted: "Stupid, how can the hammer cut the throat, this time the murder weapon must be a sharp blade." β
"No," said the Dusk Police Department in a deep voice, "according to the autopsy, the deceased's carotid artery was more torn than cut. β
"Huh?" MΔori was surprised, "Tear?"
Officer Takagi said, "Yes, the wound is not smooth. β
Yamazaki had an idea in mind, but he still needed to verify it.
"It's not a blunt weapon that's not sharp," Eiyu Hondo said, "and if the two sides of the hammer are polished, it may also be used as a blade." β
Maori nodded, "That is to say, these two events are actually still related, and they are the murder weapons." β
"Maybe. The Twilight Police Department sighed, "Anyway, Maori, you can help me think about it." β
Maori stood up excitedly and saluted, "Yes, Maori Kogoro will definitely live up to expectations." β
"What else," asked Yamazaki, "why is this Mr. Shigetewa at the cabaret?
Officer Takagi said, "It's not clear yet, he doesn't have any information on his phone. β
Hondo Yingyou high-fived and said: "It's the murderer, it must be the murderer who deleted it." β
Officer Takagi smiled bitterly: "No, he uses a new mobile phone, we have investigated, it is the mobile phone store in Rice Flower Square in the afternoon, he is alone." β
Conan asked, "What about the computer at home? Doesn't it mean that he is working as an online shopping agent?"
Officer Takagi spread his hands and said, "He has moved, he is not in his previous apartment, and we have not found his current apartment." β
"It seems that there are no new clues. Yamazaki asked Maori for instructions, "Uncle, then I'll go back first." β
"Okay, be careful on the road. Maori nodded.
After that, Yamazaki said goodbye to the others and left, going home for lunch.
When lunch was over, he didn't stay at home, he went to find Kyota Honma.
Yamazaki has always believed that Kyota Honma is the most suspicious in terms of probability, and it is a coincidence that he randomly chooses a song hall among the karaoke halls in Tokyo and encounters a murder incident.
At the same time, as far as the murder weapon is concerned, the towel can also be used as an accomplice to some extent.
It's just that if he is officially called for questioning, I am afraid that it will not be conducive to his sentence, and he can only go once. β¦β¦
