Tuesday, August 6, in the office of lawyer Xun Zhuangping.

A drink was called, and Lawyer Xun beckoned the four of them to sit down. Soon after, when it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon, Lawyer Xun, who had been keeping an eye on the time, said that he had gone to the bathroom and could get to work when he came back. As soon as he entered, the phone rang. Lawyer Tatsumi asked the four Maori to pick it up, and Conan rushed over.

"Hey, hello. ”

"Where's the kid?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm his wife, little brother, would you like to come and listen to my husband?"

"Please wait a minute," Conan said, then shouted into the bathroom, "Lawyer Sunda, it's your wife's. ”

Lawyer Tatsumi shouted in the bathroom, "I don't have time for the time being, let her wait." ”

Conan told the truth, and Mrs. Xun hung up. Soon after, there was the sound of flushing water in the bathroom.

Maori said, "Lan, you take Conan out first." ”

Lan smiled, "Let's go, Conan." ”

"I'm really sorry," Lawyer Xun came out and said, then smiled at Ran and Conan, "There are waiters in the hall, you can report my name, just order whatever you like, don't be polite, try to order." ”

"Thanks," Lan smiled, "and we're leaving." So saying, he bowed and went out.

Lawyer Xun said, "Detective Maori, to be honest, I came to you to ask you to help me investigate my wife. As he spoke, he took a picture and came out.

Mrs. Tatsumi in the photo looks less than thirty years old and is very beautiful.

Maori was surprised and asked, "Is it ......?"

"Alas!" Sighing, Lawyer Xun said, "I suspect that my wife is having an affair with Mei, please help me investigate." ”

"I see. Maori said seriously.

"Detective Maori, don't take pictures of this, just tell me who the other person is, I trust you. Lawyer Xun said, then bowed his head and pleaded, "I want to give her another chance, please be sure to keep it a secret, please." ”

However, Yamazaki sensed the danger, and when Lawyer Tatsumi said that I wanted to give her another chance, a wave of intent to kill emanated from Lawyer Tatsumi, and it seemed that Lawyer Tatsumi wanted to do something for himself.

Maori said solemnly: "I understand. ”

Mori wrote down some basic information about Mrs. Tatsumi, her phone number, license plate number, and what her lawyer brought back from Mrs. Tatsumi, and what she had recently frequented, and then said goodbye to Yamazaki.

At half past one, when he arrived at the lobby of the hotel, after meeting Lan and Conan, Conan asked, "Uncle, what is Lawyer Xun looking for you?"

"Don't worry about the children," said Maori, "Ran, you take this kid home first, Yamazaki and I have something to do." Then he took out the information and said to Yamazaki, "I'll leave these two places to you, let's get acquainted with them today, and see if there can be any unexpected gains by the way." ”

"Okay," Yamazaki asked, "but, uncle, how do I contact you?"

After thinking for a moment, Maori said, "Okay, I'll buy a mobile phone too." ”

Lan asked, "Dad, what are you going to do?"

"Keep it a secret. Maori said, "All right, you go back first, I'll go back to dinner in the evening." ”

"Don't worry, it's not a big deal. Yamazaki laughed, "I'll go first." ”

At one o'clock and forty, Yamazaki walked out of the hotel gate, and while walking around the hotel, he called his mother Mimiko Miyamoto, who was in the office.

"Lawyer Xun Zhuangping? I know this person. Miyamoto said, then thought for a while and asked, "Did you see his secretary?"

Yamazaki said, "No, he's alone. ”

"Then maybe it's today," Miyakoto said, "and you go next door to his office, room 1512, which is the waiting room he has prepared for his clients, and there is usually a secretary there." ”

"I see. Yamazaki said, "It seems that he transferred people." ”

At around 2 p.m., after nearly a full circle around the hotel, Yamazaki re-entered the hotel from the hotel's underground parking lot.

After walking a short distance, Yamazaki noticed that Lawyer Tatsumi had come out of the elevator and immediately hid. Then he picked out a large package from the pile, which was piled up at the exit of the special conveyor pipe in the laundry room, carried it to the trunk of a car, and then got into the car and left.

Yamazaki chased after him, then called a taxi and followed. Following all the way to a three-story mansion, Yamazaki saw the car drive in, paid for the car, got out of the car and ran to the past. I looked at the house number, and this was the home of Lawyer Xun.

At this time, the sound of the car starting sounded, and Yamazaki immediately hid. After that, Mr. Tatsumi drove out again, but instead of returning to the hotel the same way, he went in the other direction. Yamazaki was thinking about what Lawyer Tatsumi was doing, when he suddenly noticed that the door of Lawyer Xun's house was wide open, and when he stepped forward, the door was not closed.

At this time, Yamazaki's phone rang, it was Maori, who had just bought a mobile phone and called to tell him the number.

"Uncle, you should go to Lawyer Xun's house first. Yamazaki said.

"What's going on?" asked Maori.

"I don't know yet," Yamazaki said, "anyway, come here." ”

After hanging up the phone and entering the room, Yamazaki found a pair of women's shoes in the hallway. Then, on the way to the living room, he found a wrinkled tie on the ground, and then found Tatsumi Kazumi, the wife of Lawyer Tatsumi, lying on the ground in the living room.

Yamazaki stepped forward to take a look, and Tatsumi Kazumi was still alive, but her breath was very weak. Yamazaki immediately called an ambulance, and then while calling the police, he thought to himself, strange, didn't you kill?

Yamazaki took a look at Tatsumi Kazumi's injuries and found that there was no bleeding injury, only a strangulation mark on his neck, and the murder weapon was probably a tie on the ground.

Yamazaki called his mother, Mimiko Miyamoto, again and told her about it.

Mimiko Miyamoto asked, "When the car entered and exited Lawyer Tatsumi's house, did you see who was sitting in the driver's seat?"

"No, I was behind him when he came in," Yamazaki said with a wry smile, "When he came out, I chose the wrong direction, I thought he would go back to the hotel, so I waited on that road, and he ended up going the other way." ”

"Then it's troublesome," Miyamoto Miko smiled, "you play slowly, and let me know when you make progress." ”

Yamazaki smiled: "Wait a minute, Mom, how about giving some hints, why is it troublesome?"

"Well, the hint is that the living and the dead are different. Mimiko Miyamoto smiled and hung up the phone after speaking.

"The living and the dead are certainly different. Yamazaki said to himself helplessly, "What kind of hint is this." ”

Yamazaki walked around Lawyer Tatsumi's house and found that there was a door in the back, and when it opened, it was the garage that appeared, and it seemed that Lawyer Tatsumi came in through this door, and left after putting Tsumi and Mei down.

Moments later, an ambulance arrives to pick up Tatsumi and Mi, and then Mori, Conan, and Ran arrive.

Maori asked, "What's going on?"

Yamazaki said, "When I was returning to the hotel from the parking lot, I accidentally found Mr. Tatsune...... In the end, it is found that Tatsumi and Mei are at home. ”

"Huh?" asked Maori in surprise, "she's dead?"

Yamazaki said, "No. ”

At this time, the Twilight Police Department arrived with his subordinates, and after hearing what Yamazaki said, he immediately notified Lawyer Tatsumi and asked him to come home, and then began the work of collecting evidence.

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Mori, why did you go to the hotel where Lawyer Xun's office is located?"

"Well," Maori whispered, "Lawyer Tatsumi commissioned me to help him investigate his wife, who he suspected of having an affair. ”

"What?" the Dusk Police Department was taken aback.

Maori said, "So, it could really be the work of Lawyer Xun." ”

At this time, the hospital called, and they suspected that Tatsumi had a hypoxic brain injury, and they could not be treated there, and they needed to be transferred to the hospital immediately.

"Twilight Police Department, let Mrs. Tatsumi be transferred to the Good Mood General Hospital," Yamazaki said, "I'll tell the medical helicopter to be sent there." Then I called Dr. Asai.

Soon after, Lawyer Tatsumi returned in his car. As soon as he got out of the car, he asked, "Dusk Police, Detective Maori, why are you at my house, what's going on?"

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Lawyer Xun, could you please open the trunk?"

"No," said Lawyer Tatsumi, "please give me an explanation first." ”

The Twilight Police Department told Yamazaki what he had said, and he also told Mrs. Tatsumi about her situation.

"You suspect that I carried my wife home in a coat bag? I did take one of my pockets," Lawyer Tatsumi asked, "But, Mr. Yamazaki, you said that you saw me driving out of the underground parking lot, and then you chased me out of the parking lot and called a taxi to follow my car, so may I ask you, how much time did you spend in the meantime, and can you confirm that the last car you followed was my car?"

"It can't be wrong," Yamazaki laughed, "I remember the license plate number is, uh......" Looking at the license plate number of Attorney Tatsumi's car, Yamazaki couldn't laugh, "It's not this car, the license plate number is different." As he spoke, he reported the license plate number he saw.

The Twilight Police Department immediately sent someone to check the license plate number.

"So, Lawyer Tatsumi, can I ask you," the Twilight Police Department asked, "what's in that pocket?"

"It's all personal belongings, and I was tired of carrying them, so I threw them down from the special pipe in the laundry room," said Lawyer Xun, "and I burned the pockets and the contents of the clothes." ”

The Dusk Police Department asked, "And where did you go to burn these things?"

Lawyer Xun said: "I saw that there was nothing to do this afternoon, so I went to wash and maintain the car, and used the incinerator there by the way. As he spoke, he gave the address there.

The Twilight Police Department checked the map and found that the place was not far from Mr. Tatsumi's house, but it was in the opposite direction of the hotel, which meant that Mr. Tatsumi could go back to his home and come back later.

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Didn't you ever come back?"

"No," Lawyer Tatsumi asked, "Mr. Yamazaki, did you see me driving back?"

"I didn't see who was in the car," Yamazaki said, "I just saw the car come in and quickly drive out again." ”

Lawyer Xun asked, "And then you found that the gate was wide open, and the gate was not closed, so you went in?"

"Yes. Yamazaki said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have trespassed." ”

Lawyer Xun said: "I want to thank you, thank you for calling an ambulance to take Kazumi to the hospital." ”

"That's as it should be. Yamazaki said.

Lawyer Tatsumi said, "Twilight Police Department, if there is no problem, I want to go to the hospital to see my wife." ”

"A few more questions," the Twilight Police Department asked, "Lawyer Xun, is your wife in the hotel today?"

"Yes. "Didn't the Maori detective know that? She made a phone call at one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was in the room next door to my office, which was also my room. ”

"Maori?" asked the Twilight Police Department.

"Yes," Maori said, "but I don't know it's next door." ”

"I guess the Conan kid answered the phone," said Lawyer Tatsumi, "and I was in the bathroom." ”

"Yes, I took it. Conan said, "It was indeed Lady Xun herself." ”

Lan said: "By the way, there is a recording of the phone ......."

"I had washed off the phone recording before I came out, which is my habit and what the customer requested. "If you want to confirm whether Kazumi has gone to the hotel, you can ask the waiter at the hotel, and they should know that Kazumi and I went to the hotel together." ”

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Why did Lady Xun go to your office?"

"Because I have an appointment this morning, and we want to talk about something that's not good to talk about on the phone. "But today's client didn't leave until the Maori detective came, so I had to entertain the Maori detective first." ”

"Yes," Maori said, "we met at the door of the hotel, and Lawyer Tatsumi was dropping someone off. ”

"Then why doesn't Mrs. Xun come out to eat together?" asked the Twilight Police Department, "And if you are next door, can't you come over?"

"Well, because of the identity of the Mori detective, I didn't inform her," said Lawyer Tatsumi, "and she probably didn't come here to see that Mori didn't leave, so she didn't come here so as not to disturb my work." ”

The Twilight Police Department asked, "Then why did you call again at exactly one o'clock?"

"I start my afternoon work at one o'clock, she probably called to confirm my afternoon work, and we haven't found time to talk in the morning. Lawyer Tatsumi smiled, "Mr. Mori can see it, but I've been waiting for her call." ”

"That's why you keep looking at the time," Mori laughed, "I guess it's hard to endure a stomachache." ”

"yes," Lawyer Tatsumi laughed, "It would be rude for Mr. Mori to call me." ”

"So, Lawyer Xun, when was the last time you saw your wife?"

"It was the morning," said Lawyer Tatsumi, "and then I saw that I didn't have an appointment in the afternoon, so I went to look for Kazumi next door, but she was no longer there, and at that time, it was about 1:30." ”

Lawyer Conan Xun asked, "Uncle, why don't you know if you have an appointment?"

"My secretary went out yesterday. Lawyer Xun laughed.

The Twilight Police Department asked, "So, Lawyer Xun, have you called your wife?"

"I called, but the phone was turned off. "I didn't pick up anyone at home, so I just packed up my belongings and went to take care of the car." ”

At this time, the Twilight Police Department received a call that the license plate number reported by Yamazaki was fake. Subsequently, the examiner said that in addition to the fingerprints of the Xuns and his wife, there was also the fingerprints of a stranger on the doorknob.

"Is it Yamazaki's?" asked Maori.

"I didn't touch the doorknob," Yamazaki said. ”

"Maybe this guy did it," Lawyer Tatsumi said, "Okay, I'm going to the hospital." With that, he got into the car.

"Wait a minute, Lawyer Tatsumi," said the Twilight Police Department, "can you ...... the trunk of the trunk?"

"Okay, okay, but it's been cleaned. Lawyer Xun said as he opened the trunk of the car.

Soon after, the examiners concluded an inspection of the trunk of the lawyer's car, and found nothing of value. ……
