Chapter 0432 Illustrator's Signature
Saturday, May 10th, afternoon, Butterfly Springs Apartment.
Hearing that the coffee was coming, Conan just wanted to go out, but heard Yamazaki say, "Leave it to me, thank you", so he thought, what does this guy want to do?
"Although the owner of this house is no longer there, it is rude to spill things in other people's houses. Yamazaki said, and then added, "President Hanaoka, please take off your socks on your feet." ”
"Socks?" said President Hanaoka, confused.
"The part on the sheet is exactly the part of the foot, and wiping nail polish for yourself should not get on the sheets, only when you wipe nail polish for others, especially if you are asleep and don't know how to cooperate, it will be easy to drip out. Yamazaki said, "Come on, President Hanaoka, let's see if you have any signature on your body, a signature drawing made with the nail polish that was just released today." ”
"What!" The Twilight Police Department was taken aback, then saw President Hanaoka's face change, and immediately said, "President Hanaoka, please take off the socks on your feet." ”
President Hanaoka took off one sock with a trembling hand, and when he found that there was none, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then took off the other sock with bated breath, and then looked at the beautiful pink butterfly pattern on his toenails and froze.
"That's Miss Butterflyno's signature, and this nail polish is only going on sale today, if you want to prove it, then, President Hanaoka," Conan said in a very small voice into the bow tie, "please tell me where that pattern is and who painted it." ”
Tanaka asked, "How is it possible, Hanaoka-sensei, how could Hanaoka-sensei kill Miss Butterfly?"
"President Hanaoka's motivation may be to paint, but if you look at the paintings on the wall, there are several paintings with President Hanaoka's signature on the back of a butterfly's signature. Conan said in a very small voice to the bow tie, "I'm afraid it's because Miss Butterfly no imitated President Hanaoka's handwriting. There should be many more such paintings, and they may have had an argument over it. So President Hanaoka suddenly rushed into the bathroom and killed Miss Butterfly, and what he didn't know was that Miss Butterfly had just put on contact lenses in the mirror, so President Hanaoka would put on her glasses for Miss Butterflyno again. ”
Tanaka was taken aback, "Hanaoka-sensei asked Butterfly no to ghostwrite, how is this possible?"
"It's true, recently Hanaoka-sensei's paintings have Butterfly's signature on them. The assistant said gloomily, "Actually, it was Mr. Hanaoka who entered the trough period. ”
At this time, an forensic officer reported that blood stains had been found in the bathroom, and based on the height and shape of the blood stains, it was initially estimated that Miss Chono had been hit on the head with a blunt object.
"I hit the head with a blunt object, which is why I made the jump to cover up the wounds. The Dusk Police Department asked, "President Hanaoka, what else do you have to say?"
At this time, Maori woke up with a yawn, startled Conan, and after estimating it, he sighed, and sure enough, it was almost half an hour, and it took a lot of time to set up the scene.
Yamazaki stepped forward and bent down to hand over the coffee, "Uncle, please have a cup of hot coffee to refresh yourself." At the same time, he whispered in Maori's ear, "Uncle has already reasoned just now. ”
"Huh?" Mori was taken aback and asked in a low voice, "Really?" and then watched Yamazaki nod and touch his chin in thought.
President Hanaoka sighed, "It seems that there is no way to hide it anymore. ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "President Hanaoka, do you admit to killing Miss Butterfly?"
"The murderer is really this guy, so the incident has been resolved. Maori smiled and said to herself, "Well, that's good, I just need ......."
"No, no, I'm not going to kill her. President Hanaoka said, "Actually, I'm here today, no, I should say I was here last night." ”
"What!" Mori, the Twilight Police Department, Conan, the assistant, and Tanaka, who hadn't finished speaking, were all taken aback.
Lan whispered to Mei Daizi, "What's wrong with this?"
"Well," Mei Daiko thought for a moment and whispered, "I don't know either." Then he asked, "Brother?"
Yamazaki smiled, "Think about it, what is my uncle's best job." ”
"Daddy's best?" Lan said, "Finding pets, finding people, marking people, stealing investigations, uh......"
Mei Daizi said: "It turned out to be a stealing meeting. ”
Yamazaki said, "That's it. ”
"I woke up here before noon today, I can't remember the specific time, I didn't dare to stay longer after I woke up, but because I felt very bad, I went back to the studio and continued to sleep. Later, I was woken up by a phone call from the office, and then I received a call from Butterfly and told me about painting. I called the courier and went to the office, where I witnessed the scene of Butterfly jumping off the building. President Hanaoka said, "As for the butterfly pattern on my feet, I guess I drew it while I was sleeping, and the nail polish must have been bought by her when she went out in the morning, so I don't know when." Actually, I once had a butterfly on my hand, and the Maori detectives saw it, but I was afraid that some bad rumors would spread in the office when the people in the office knew about it, so I scraped it off in the bathroom of the office. Then he asked his assistant and Tanaka, "Butterfly Ye likes to do this kind of prank the most, right?"
The assistant said, "That's right. ”
Tanaka said, "When we went on a trip, we woke up in the morning and found that we had been scribbled by Miss Itano. ”
"By the way, here's the picture. President Hanaoka went to the study and brought a photo album, "Look. ”
Looking at a photo, the assistant's face and Tanaka's head were painted with butterfly patterns, and the Twilight Police Department said, "It seems that Miss Butterfly is indeed more fond of pranks." He continued, "But, President Hanaoka, you may have set this trap in the morning. ”
Tanaka said: "That, police officer, that quilt was only dried in the afternoon, about 2:10 in the afternoon. ”
"That's right. The Dusk Police Department asked, "So, President Hanaoka, you said you left before noon, do you have an alibi?"
"Well, it doesn't seem to be. President Hanaoka said, "But as my assistant said, I'm actually the one who has entered the trough period, and I've been painting a lot of paintings for me lately, so for the sake of my career, I'm not going to kill Dieno at all." Then he looked at Mei Daizi and said, "I will be completely afraid that the affairs of me and Dieno will be known to the outside world, which will not only have a bad reputation, but I will not know how to explain to my wife when I go back." ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Brother Maori?"
"If that's the case, the motivation is really insufficient. Maori said.
At this time, an forensic officer came to report that no murder weapon was found.
"This means that the murder weapon was taken away. Maori said, then asked, "Dusk Police Department, are you thinking about outside criminals?"
"Uncle," Conan said, pulling Maori and pointing to President Hanaoka, "take me to this uncle's studio, I haven't seen what it's like yet." ”
"Huh, studio?" Mori said, "Twilight Police, let's go to President Hanaoka's studio, maybe ......"
"Good. The Twilight Police Department said, "President Hanaoka, please take us to your art club." ”
"Yes, yes. President Hanaoka said.
Less than ten minutes later, President Hanaoka's studio arrived. Before entering, Conan grabbed Yamazaki and asked, "Did you find a place where the murder weapon was thrown?"
"Possibly. Yamazaki said.
Conan asked angrily, "Hey, are you going to grind like this for an afternoon?"
"I'm telling the truth, and you do everything you have to do, I just have to watch. Yamazaki smiled, "Let's go, let's go and see what the flaws are." If not, the police can only slowly find the person who has met President Hanaoka. ”
Conan said with some excitement: "Okay, let me see what this scene has been arranged by him." ”
The Twilight Police Department took everyone around the studio, except for the resting room and the bathroom, the other rooms were cleaned up well, and there was no mess, it seemed that someone only slept in the resting room, and after getting up, he used the bathroom, and then washed up and left.
Looking at the messy bed on the floor in the resting room, President Hanaoka smiled embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry to let you laugh." I was in a hurry in the afternoon and didn't put the bed away. ”
"Looks like there's nothing wrong with that. Maori said.
The Twilight Police Department asked, "President Hanaoka, could you please think about it, did you meet anyone on your way back to this studio from Miss Tunino's house?"
"I was groggy and didn't pay attention. "But I went to the bank on my way from the studio to the office, and it was about half past two in the afternoon. ”
The Twilight Police Department asked the officers to investigate, and soon after, the police officer came back to report that President Hanaoka had withdrawn money from the ATM at 2:28 p.m.
"Alright, President Hanaoka, Mr. Courier, please come with us and make a detailed note. The Dusk Police Department said.
"Okay. President Hanaoka said.
The courier asked with a sad face, "I'm going too, when will I be able to come out?"
"After we find out the exact time of Miss Chono's death and learn about your alibi. The Dusk Police Department said.
Conan sighed, now he had to go to the road and investigate slowly.
"Why, don't see the problem?" Yamazaki asked with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Conan was taken aback, "You've found a problem." ”
"It seems that Lan is very diligent. Yamazaki laughed, then left Conan, who was puzzled, and stepped forward and whispered in Maori's ear, "Uncle, the pillow and the bed." ”
"Pillows and beds?" asked Maori in a whisper, "What's wrong with these?"
Yamazaki whispered, "If President Hanaoka really slept on this bed for an hour or two, there should be hair and dandruff left." And I saw his hair on the pillow of Miss Toshino's house, but not here, and President Hanaoka probably just spread out the bed and lay down on it for a while. ”
"I see. Maori high-fived.
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Ah, Brother Maori, did you find anything?"
Yamazaki whispered, "Uncle, first ask who it is and when you help him clean up the studio." ”
"Ahem!" said Maori, "there are some discoveries, but before I say that, President Hanaoka, may I ask you a question, who is usually it, and when did you help you clean up your studio?"
"It's my wife, and she comes every day at about half-past four in the afternoon. President Hanaoka said, then asked, "What's wrong with that?"
"Of course there is a problem. Mori told the Twilight Police Department what Yamazaki had just told him, and then said, "The things in the studio are neatly arranged, and it's clear that President Hanaoka, you haven't used it today, which means that you've only been in the studio for a short time today." The time between the quilt being dried out and you going to the bank is about 18 minutes, and the time between Miss Butterfly's apartment and this studio and then to the bank is about 15 minutes, which is about 3 minutes, which is the time you spend staying here and setting up the place. ”
I see, Conan straightened his triangular eyes, is this guy saying that I don't do housework?
"Very well, Maori brother. The Dusk Police Department said to the forensic officers, "Go investigate the pillow immediately." ”
"No, no. President Hanaoka sat down on the ground weakly and said, muttering in his mouth, "I see, no wonder." ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "So, President Hanaoka, did you admit to killing Miss Itano?"
"Yes. President Hanaoka said, "I killed Butterfly. ”
Mei Daizi smiled: "Sure enough, it's him, how about it, Lan, I said it a long time ago, he must be the murderer." ”
"Yes, yes, you're amazing. Lan laughed.
"But, Hanaoka-sensei, why is that?" Tanaka asked with some excitement.
"Because Dieno used her relationship with me to blackmail me, and wanted me to divorce my wife and marry her. President Hanaoka said with some pain, "But she doesn't understand that I can't leave my wife at all." ”
"By the way, a few years ago, due to the sudden collapse of the economy, the design office could not continue to operate, but the president suddenly raised a large amount of money," the assistant asked in surprise, "Is it ......?"
"Yes, it was borrowed by my wife from her father, my father-in-law. President Hanaoka said solemnly, "If I divorce my wife, I will go bankrupt immediately." ”
"I see. Maori nodded and said, then asked suspiciously, "By the way, President Hanaoka, what do you mean by 'I see' just now?"
"I've always suspected that my wife knew about the matter between me and Dieno, but I just can't figure out how my wife knows. President Hanaoka said, "Now it seems that she found out that I hadn't slept on it at all when she was helping me make my bed." ”
Maori laughed, "I see. ”
"Well, officer, can I go?" asked the courier cautiously.
"You can come if you want. The Twilight Police Department laughed.
"No, no," the courier quickly shook his head and said, "Goodbye, Officer, uh, anyway, I'm leaving." With that, he ran away. ……
