Sunday, January 2nd, evening, Medea Restaurant.

While Yamazaki was tidying up his things, he met Mori and said, "Happy New Year, uncle." ”

"It's open?"

"It's going to be good soon, would you like to have a drink?"

"No, I have a place. ”

Maori took out a promotional advertisement and shook it, Lemon Bar New Year's Eve Reward for a week, spend a certain amount for five consecutive days, and get one day free. ……

Monday, January 3, Ginza.

Ran, Sonoko, Yamazaki, Midiko, and Conan go shopping, and on the way Ran complains about Maori and comes back late last night after drinking.

Yuanzi smiled: "Ha, uncle must have found a store with a discount, so he doesn't know moderation." ”

"Garden, you guessed it," Mei Daizi smiled, "I heard my brother say that it is a place called Lemon Bar, which eats for five days in a row and is free for one day." ”

Yuanzi smiled: "I see, Lan, don't worry about it these days." ”

"That's it. Lan grumbled.

Conan puffed up his triangular eyes, I'm not worried, right? Uncle's snoring, how should I survive the remaining few days......

Friday, January 7th, night, Lemon Bar.

Mori, who was drunk, put on his coat and staggered out of the bar under the send-off of the owner, Hiroshi Ukita.

"Mr. Maori, are you okay with this, do you want to call a taxi to take you back?"

"No, no, hiccups! ”

"Then be careful all the way, don't cut corners, it's darker in there. ”

"Ann, blah, I can walk with my eyes closed, hiccup!"

Maori really walked with his eyes closed, but this was a drinking street, and most of the pedestrians walking on the road at this time were drunk, and no one had to laugh at anyone.

The shortcut is a construction site, which is fairly clean, but it is still dangerous for drunk people.

However, Maori still chose to cut corners, and halfway through found that dust had fallen on his head.

Maori unconsciously looked up, and when he looked up, he found a large number of reflective objects hanging in the air, and it looked like they were about to fall.

Maori's drunkenness immediately woke up for the most part, and he threw himself to the side and rolled out, and the object in the air fell, clanging, and on closer inspection, it was a metal water pipe.

Maori was so frightened that he gasped for breath after lying on the ground, and he couldn't stand up for a while, although he couldn't see the situation above the building next to him, but he could still hear the sound of hurried footsteps, obviously this was not an accident, but a man-made incident. ……

As Mori called the police, the Twilight Police Department and Officer Takagi led the team, but Mori was already asleep.

The Twilight Police Department called Maori but couldn't wake up, smelled Maori's full body of alcohol, laughed angrily, and simply gave Maori a kick in the buttocks.

Maori woke up in a daze from the pain, "Huh?"

The Twilight Police Department shouted, "Mori Kogoro!"

"Here!" the Mori saluted reflexively, but did not face the Twilight Police Department.

Officer Takagi quickly turned Mori around and made him face the Twilight Police Department.

The Twilight Police Department patiently asked, and coupled with the environment of the scene, they finally deduced what had happened, and Maori passed by here, and someone pushed down the metal water pipe at a high place.

Faced with a drunk Mori, the Twilight Police Department asks Officer Takagi to send Mori home and then sends someone to investigate. ……

Maori family.

Looking at the grizzled face of Maori, who was sent back by Officer Takagi, Lan was taken aback, "Officer Takagi, what is my father?"

"We'll talk about that later," Officer Takagi said, "Mr. Maori fell asleep after drinking too much." ”

"Ah, I'm sorry. Ran hurriedly went up to help, and together with Officer Takagi, sent Maori into his bedroom.

"Here's the thing. Officer Takagi told me what had happened.

"Ahh

Conan asked, "Officer Takagi, can you be more detailed?"

Officer Takagi smiled bitterly, "We know so much now, Mr. Mori can't say it clearly." ”

"Really, Dad knows how to drink. Lan grumbled dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, Miss Lan, I'll go back first. Officer Takagi said, "Tomorrow, please let Mr. Mao come to the Metropolitan Police Department." ”

"I see, Officer Takagi. Lan sent Officer Takagi out the door, "I'm sorry for the trouble, thank you." ”

"Where, it's nothing. Officer Takagi took his leave and left. ……

Maori bedrooms.

Ran wiped the sleeping Maori with a broken thought, and helped take off his coat for Conan to hang up.

When Conan took over, he found that the coat was not Māori's, and although the color and style were the same, the coat was clearly new, unlike Māori's old coat.

"Sister Lan, this is not an uncle's coat. Conan said.

"Really?" Lan took a closer look and saw that it was not Maori's coat, "but whose coat could it be?

"Uncle must have taken off his coat when he was drinking at the bar, and then when he came out, he took the wrong coat with someone else. Conan said, "Sister Lan, if you look at what is in your pocket, you will know whose clothes it is." ”

"Makes sense. Lan flipped through her clothes, but found only a mobile phone.

Conan said, "This phone doesn't belong to my uncle. ”

"Well, I'll take a look at the address book. Lan checked his phone, but he didn't find the address book, and there was no call record, call answering record, text messages were empty, and the whole phone was clean as if it was newly bought.

Conan laughed, this thing is really getting more and more interesting.

"What is going to be done?" Lan said distressedly.

"It doesn't matter, Sister Lan. Conan smiled, "Tomorrow it will be handed over to the police, and they will definitely find out." ”

"That's right. Lan smiled, and then saw that it was already late, and immediately urged Conan to go to bed quickly. ……

The next day, Saturday, January 8, Metropolitan Police Department.

Mori arrives with his clothes to see the Twilight Police Department, and Yamazaki, Ran, and Conan follow. ……

Conference room.

The Twilight Police Department said, "Maori, tell me about last night's incident. ”

"Yes," Maori said, "I remember I was passing by that construction site and someone pushed a bunch of metal pipes down the floor. ”

The Dusk Police Department asked, "Are you sure someone attacked you?"

Maori said, "Yes, I heard footsteps. ”

The Twilight Police Department asked, "You were in a drunken state, are you sure you heard me correctly?"

"I'm sure I heard footsteps. "I was woken up. Then he was a little embarrassed, "But then the alcohol came back up, I'm really sorry." ”

The Twilight Police Department waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault, you're also a victim." ”

"By the way, police department, speaking of the victim, please take a look at this dress first," Maori showed yesterday's coat, "This is the coat I wore last night, but this coat is not mine, so the target of the prisoner is probably not me, but the owner of this coat." ”

"Oh, there's that kind of thing. "The Twilight Police Department was surprised.

"Yes, I always take my coat off when I'm drinking at the Lemon Bar. Maori said.

"Lemon bar?" asked the Dusk Police Department angrily.

"Ah," Maori scratched his head and laughed, "I've been interested in spicy food lately, and when the spicy cheese comes into my mouth, it feels like all my body is exploding." ”

The Twilight Police Department puffed up its triangular eyes, if there wasn't a big event there, you wouldn't go.

At this time, Officer Sato came in, "Police Department, this is the investigation report." ”

"Okay, you hand over this dress to the forensic class. "Maori said it was someone else's clothes that he was wearing by mistake. ”

"Mistaken? Okay. Officer Sato replied.

Maori hurriedly said: "Wait, there is a mobile phone in this dress, please check it too,"

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Is the phone the owner of the clothes?"

Maori said: "I guess so, but I don't have any information in my phone." ”

"That's right. The Twilight Police Department said, "Sato, if you have time, you can help investigate." ”

"Yes. Officer Sato replied.

After that, the Twilight Police Department opened the investigation report, "We found footprints at the scene, but no fingerprints were found, and Maori you were in a drunken state, so we can't conclude that someone appeared on the rooftop at that time, pushed down the metal water pipe, and tried to kill Maori You, who happened to be passing there." ”

Maori said urgently: "Wait, police department, I'm really sure I heard footsteps at that time." ”

"But Maori you were really drunk at the time, and that's obvious to all. The Dusk Police Department sighed helplessly, "Let's go, I'll take you to the scene to see." ”……
