Thursday, August 14, 3pm, Maori Detective Agency.

The Twilight Police Department came over and told the results of the investigation, "The bottle of Kazman is indeed an organophosphoric compound, and there are only Mr. Nagai's fingerprints on it, which means that it is very likely that the murderer put the poisonous Kazman there in advance." ”

Maori asked, "Have you found out where you bought the Kazman with the sticker?"

"It hasn't been found yet, or it's hard to find out. Now there are still many businesses that are not in the electronic system, and even if there is a barcode, it is difficult to find out the circulation of this bottle of Kazman. "If you look at the time when the vending machine changed the drink and the date and sticker on the bottle of Kazman, the time of sale should be seven days ago to yesterday noon, because since after noon yesterday, all the drinks have been replaced with drinks without stickers." ”

"I see. Maori asked, "Police, have you been to Mr. Nagai's apartment?"

"I've been there, and I've made some discoveries, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with this incident. The Twilight Police Department pulled out a photo album.

When Mori opened it, he saw that all of them were photos of Miss Nishitani, not only photos of being out of the house, but also many photos of her home, all of which were taken without Miss Nishitani knowing, that is, they were taken secretly.

Lan couldn't help but ask, "It's terrible, doesn't Miss Nishiya even know?"

"Before I came here, I went to see Miss Nishitani, and she was shocked that she didn't know about the secretly photographed. The Dusk Police Department said.

"It looks like that's true in the pictures," Maori said. ”

"It could also be the case, we found some microfilm. "I'm afraid Mr. Nagai took pictures with a professional miniature. ”

"Mr. Nagai didn't seem to have a camera with him in the morning, did he?" Mori asked, "So he wasn't in Oyuki Nishitani-sama?"

"It's not conclusive. "A neighbor near Mr. Nagai's house who got up for morning exercise saw Mr. Nagai leave home with a large tote bag, which has not yet been found. ”

At this time, Conan said, "It's strange that the apartment in this photo is different from the one that Miss Nishitani lives in now, and the place where she works is not a restaurant, but a cake shop." ”

I also asked this question to Miss Nishitani, which was Yokohama's apartment and place of work before she came to Yonka-cho. "I called Miss Nishitani to find out where she used to work, and she worked hard and was very frugal because she dreamed of opening a dessert shop, and she really didn't have the habit of using vending machines." ”

Maori asked, "So, what happened between her and Mr. Nagai?"

It is said that Mr. Nagai fell in love with Miss Nishiya at first sight, so he wanted to date Miss Nishitani, but on the one hand, Miss Nishitani did not have a good impression of him, and on the other hand, Mr. Nagai's source of livelihood depended entirely on his father, who ran a medium-sized steel processing factory, and his father did not approve of Mr. Nagai's relationship with Miss Nishitani, and went to Miss Nishitani's place of work to find her in person, and said in front of everyone that he would never accept Miss Nishitani. "Mr. Nagai was afraid of his father and didn't want to give up, so he kept following Miss Nishitani, because Mr. Nagai had a lot of time, and it turned into a stalking all day and day, which made Miss Nishitani very distressed." In order to get rid of Mr. Nagai, Miss Nishitani moved to Rice Flower Town about a month and a half ago. ”

Yamazaki said: "I guess I moved here because I heard that Rice Flower Town was well governed in this regard, but she chose the wrong time, it was the preparation time for Rice Flower Town School, and then it was a holiday, and she got off work at five o'clock in the morning." And although she chose to live near Rice Flower High School and Didan High School, she probably wanted to save rent, so she found a cheap apartment, but she happened to choose a remote road that few people walked. ”

"Ahem!" said the Twilight Police Department, "the question now is whether Miss Nishitani really didn't notice that she was being followed by Mr. Nagai. ”

Maori asked, "You mean, Miss Nishitani was responsible for this incident, and she put the poisonous bottle of Kazman in it?"

"This possibility has not been ruled out yet. "And there are a few coins in the vending machine that don't have any fingerprints on them, just the price of Kazman, it should have been specially wiped by someone, if it was just put the poisonous Kazman at the outlet, the murderer didn't need to buy another Kazman."

"Police, are you saying that Miss Nishitani already knew that Mr. Nagai was following her, so she deliberately bought a bottle of Kazman at the vending machine, and put the prepared poisonous Kazman in and out of the port at the same time, and then Mr. Nagai, who also bought Kazman, made a mistake and took the poison away. Maori asked, "Then he opened it and drank it." ”

"Police, uncle, there's another question," Conan went to the kitchen refrigerator to fetch the Kazman B that Maori bought in the morning, and opened it, "You see, if the seal is broken, then even if you twist the cap after mixing the poison, it will be discovered, and no one will drink it." ”

"It's really a question of how the killer injected poison into the bottle without opening the cap," Maori said. ”

"Ahh ”

"We've thought about it and tested it. "There are no toxins on the inside of the cap, and the bottle is intact, with no small holes like needle holes, and no fingerprints of anyone other than Mr. Nagai on it. ”

"I know, it's glue. "I saw Miss Nishitani drop a crumb as she rubbed her hands, and she must have applied glue to her fingertips." When I was in art class, I rubbed the glue on my hands like this. ”

"I see, Miss Nishitani is really suspicious of that. And if it is said that because of Mr. Nagai's entanglement, Miss Nishitani has the intention of killing him, it is possible. "But, police department, how did she let Mr. Nagai buy Kazman like her?"

"I wonder if it's an indirect kiss. Yamazaki said.

"Indirect kissing?" asked the Twilight Police Department.

"By the way, it's the kind that is broadcast on TV, using the things that the woman you like has used. Lan said.

"By the way, it must be like that," said Mori, "the police department, if that's the case, Miss Nishitani only needs to prepare a bottle of poisonous Kazman and pretend to have drunk it, no, she bought a bottle from the vending machine, so there will be coins without fingerprints." ”

"Then he pretended to have drunk it, but secretly made a swap with the poisonous Kazman, leaving the poisonous Kazman with Mr. Nagai, who continued to follow Miss Nishitani while drinking, and soon after, he was poisoned." Then he asked, "But what about your bottle of Kazman?"

"This," Maori said after a moment's thought, "is supposed to create the illusion of indiscriminate killings." That is, there were three bottles of Kazman in this event. ”

At this time, the mobile phone of the Twilight Police Department rang, and the patrol officer of the 3-chome of Rice Flower Town reported that he had found Mr. Nagai's handbag.

"Go, Maori brother, come with me to have a look. The Dusk Police Department said. ……

Rice Flower Town 3-chome Public Security Office.

"The police department, it's this big tote bag on the table. "It was found in the grass under a street lamp near Miss Nishitani's house, where it was being painted. ”

Conan asked, "Is it green paint?"

"Yes. The 3-chome patrol said, "The green paint on Mr. Nagai's shoulder must have been rubbed there." ”

When the Twilight Police Department opened the large handbag and looked at it, they immediately asked in surprise, "Is this really Mr. Nagai's?"

"Mr. Nagai was seen carrying this bag to the bushes, but when he came with his hands empty. Patrol Officer 3-chome said.

"Rope, knives, tape, gloves, that one cuts glass, right?" said Maori, "It's going to be a crime." ”

Lan asked in surprise, "Is it aimed at Miss Nishitani?"

The Twilight Police Department said, "It seems that something else happened between Nishitani-sama and Mr. Nagai. ”

"There's no small camera in there. Conan asked, "Police, is there really no camera in his belongings in the morning?"

"Mr. Nagai had only his wallet, driver's license, cigarettes, keys to his residence, and a lighter. ”

Yamazaki asked, "Dusk Police Department, did you double-check that lighter?"

"You mean, it's a special one?" the Dusk Police Department immediately called back for a lesson to have someone check it out.

Moments later, Officer Takagi called, and there was indeed a small camera hidden in the lighter, and the Twilight Police Department told him to wash out the photos and send them over.

More than an hour later, at nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, Officer Takagi sent the photos.

Looking at the series of photos of Miss Nishitani's behavior, she first bought a bottle of Kazman at the vending machine, then drank it as she walked, and after turning the corner, she put a bottle of Kazman on the flower bed.

Conan pointed to this photo of Miss Nishiya putting Kazman on the flower bed and said, "Ah, there's a sticker on it. ”

It is a sticker for receiving gifts. "According to what you said at the police department, this Kazman with stickers was all taken out of the cabinet yesterday, and it was a poisonous Kazman prepared by Miss Nishiya herself." ”

"There is no sticker on Kazman in the previous photo, which means that Kazman has been replaced. "Then everything will be clear." Then he said, "Let's go, Brother Maori, let's go to Miss Nishiya." ”……

After leaving the police station, Yamazaki said, "Uncle Maori, it's not too early, so I won't go." ”

"Okay. Maori said.

What did this guy discover, and a question rose in Conan's heart, will there be anything wrong with this incident?......
