Chapter 0354 Number of Balls at the Driving Range
Monday, February 3rd, morning, golf driving range.
With the sound of the explosion, Conan immediately shouted, "Sister Lan, call an ambulance and call the police." With that, he rushed over, followed by Maori. Then the section leader, the waiter, and a woman dressed as a manager ran out of the lobby.
Midaiko complained, "Really, something happened again." ”
Yamazaki smiled, "You can eat cake here, I'll take a look." ”
"Okay. "Hurry up, it's boring." ”
Yamazaki smiled, "You must be good when you finish eating the cake." Then he handed the newspaper over and said, "Look at the paper." After saying that, he drank the juice in the cup and got up and went to the scene in District 8.
"The smell of black gunpowder?" Yamazaki asked Mori, who was examining the minister's injuries, "Uncle?"
"It should be. Maori said.
Yamazaki asked, "How are the people?"
Maori pointed to the white-collar worker in his thirties who was being supported by the waiter and said, "He stood farther away, he was shocked by the sound, and now he should be fine." Then he pointed to the white-collar worker in his twenties and said, "He stood close, was affected by some impact, and a few pieces were inserted into his body." Then he pointed to the minister of the earth and said, "There is still a breath of this one......
"The front of the body was full of club debris or something, mainly in the legs," Conan said, pointing to the minister's leg connector, "and it can be confirmed that it was an explosion while playing." ”
"Boy, I don't want you to say this. "Maori planted a mushroom for Conan with one punch.
The female manager asked, "Who are you?"
The attendant said, "Mr. Kogoro Mori." ”
"Mao, Maori Kogoro!" the manager was taken aback.
Maori Zhengse said: "Yes, I am Detective Maori Kogoro." Then he grabbed the female manager's hand and smiled, "Leave this matter to me, I will definitely be able to solve it here." ”
"Hello, hello. The manager's expression was like he was about to cry.
She must have been thinking that it would be good if her uncle wasn't here. Conan rubbed his head and chuckled.
Yamazaki chuckled quietly, "Ran should be looking for the Twilight Police Department, and the Twilight Police Department will definitely have this idea as well." ”
Maori asked the three white-collar workers, "Haven't asked for advice yet?"
"We are in the development department of an electric chemical company," the section manager said, "This is Minister Eisuke Tachibana, I'm Minoru Yasui, I'm Director Tatsuya Okubo, and the youngest is Mr. Tomosaki Minami, an employee. ”
"The development department of the electric chemical company?" asked Maori, "so it is easy for you to make black powder?"
"Are you suspicious of us? We're developing electrical products, not chemicals. "This must be an indiscriminate incident." ”
"No difference?" asked Maori, "Manager, have you offended anyone?"
"Nope. The manager said, "A few years ago, some people came to buy this land, but now they want to sell it, but no one buys it, and all the money they earn is paid land tax." ”
"Can you borrow a camera?" said Yamazaki, "preferably a Polaroid and the film is ours." ”
"Yes. "The manager went to fetch it immediately.
Seven photos were taken, and the ambulance came to take the minister away.
After another ten minutes, the Twilight Police Department led the team to the scene with an unkind face, and after instructing the subordinates to go to work, he pulled Maori to the side and said, "You can't live in peace, I didn't sleep until two o'clock today, do you know that at two o'clock?" Now, the Twilight Police Department looked at its watch, "It's seven thirty-five o'clock, it's only five hours." ”
"It's five and a half hours. Maori said.
The Twilight Police Department yelled, "Doesn't it take time to come over?"
"Yes, yes, I forgot to forget it. Maori laughed dryly.
After taking a deep breath, the Dusk Police Department asked, "Why are you here?"
Mori smiled proudly, "Miss Yoko invited me to attend the Rice Flower Town Charity Golf Tournament in the afternoon, so I came to practice." ”
"Are you golfing?" asked the Twilight Police Department with triangular eyes.
"Of course. Maori smirked.
"Ahem!" asked Masase, "what happened this time?"
Maori introduced the names of the four white-collar workers, handed over the photos, and said, "Mr. Tachibana was playing when there was a sudden explosion, and I don't know the specifics. ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Do you think it could be an indiscriminate killing of this stadium?"
Maori repeats the manager's words and says, "This should be true." ”
At this time, the forensic officer asked the Twilight Police Department to come over, and then pointed to the small pit on the ground in Area 8 and said: "It can be concluded that the explosives are made of black gunpowder, and the initial location is here, and according to the shape of this pit, we can conclude that the explosives were not buried in advance and the explosives exploded on the ground." ”
"So the explosives were in the golf ball, or in the head of the club, or both," the police department said. If it's a golf ball, it's probably indiscriminate killing, if it's the head of a club......"
"The prisoner was among the three of them," said Maori. ”
The forensic officer pointed to the debris on the ground next to him and said, "This is the fragment of the cue head, and this is the fragment of the golf ball." It can blow up a golf ball, and we preliminarily determined that the explosives were in the golf ball. ”
Picking up the fragments of the ball and looking at it, the Dusk Police Department asked, "Manager, do you have a red line on each of the balls here?"
"No, we have a green line for the balls here. The manager said quickly.
"That's a sign that explosives have been planted," Maori said. ”
"The question is, is this against Mr. Tachibana personally, or is it indiscriminate?"
"I think it's for ministers. ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Oh, why do you think that?"
Nan Zhishi said: "This is because all three of us have enough motivation. ”
Section Chief Yasui shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about. ”
"That's right, let's take me for example, there have been three times before the Minister submitted ideas for new products in his own name," said Director Okubo, "and Tomoshi, you don't know how many times you have made a suggestion, but it has never been accepted." ”
Section Chief Yasui said, "But I'm different, I don't have any problems with the minister." ”
Director Okubo said: "Chief Yasui, you don't have to lie anymore, we all know for a long time, in fact, your most beloved girlfriend was snatched away by the minister a long time ago." ”
Section Chief Yasui exclaimed, "No, it was after I dumped her that the minister began to associate with her." ”
"Huh, Mr. Yasui, why don't you have any dust on you?" asked Maori, and continued, "I see, I see, Dusk Police Department, I know who the prisoner is." ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Really, Maori?"
"First of all, from the point of view of the method, the prisoner mixed the ball with the explosives with other balls so that the victim could hit it with the club, so the most suspicious thing is to take the ball out of the ball machine and then give the ball to Mr. Tachibana's people," Maori said. ”
Mr. Yasui said, "That's Okubo, he took it, and I was tidying up my clubs at the time, and Minami Tomoshi went to the bathroom." ”
"But then?" said Maori, "you gave some of the ball to Mr. Tachibana, and that's when the ball with the explosives was put in." And you asked Mr. Okubo to fetch the ball, just to blame him. ”
Section Chief Yasui said, "Please wait a minute, I was playing in District 9 at the time, and I was the closest to the minister, and if it exploded, I might die." ”
"As long as you are careful when you put the red ball in the back position, the red ball will naturally appear in the back when the ball machine is running," Maori said, "and then you can play it quickly." ”
"I've always played fast. Section Chief Yasui asked, "Did you say Okubo?"
Tatsu Okubo also turned his face away and did not answer.
"You left the driving range after you played," Mori asked, "and Mr. Okubo and Mr. Minami were both present at the time of the explosion, and they were both affected, and you? May I ask, where were you at that time?"
"I went to order coffee from the counter, and our manager likes to drink a cup of coffee brewed by the manager here after every game, so every time I go to the counter ten minutes before he is about to finish playing, I will go to the counter and ask the manager to start preparing coffee. "Generally speaking, it's almost time after I'm done playing. ”
The manager said: "We have coffee beans here, and it takes about ten minutes to process, so they are all booked in advance. The Minister Tachibana would drink a cup of coffee every time he came, and it was ordered by Section Chief Yasui. ”
The Dusk Police Department asked, "How often do you come here?"
"Yes," said Section Chief Yasui, "this time it's because the minister has been transferred abroad to become a branch chief, and there will be a farewell party, and the minister will come to practice his skills." ”
"That's right. The Twilight Police Department asked, "Maori?"
"At the time of the explosion, Mr. Yasui was the only one who happened to leave the scene, which is a bit too much of a coincidence. Maori asked, "I wonder if I can check his belongings?"
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Mr. Yasui, can you let us check the luggage you brought?"
"Yes. Yasui said.
"Hey, what do you think?" asked Conan in a whisper.
"Mr. Yasui is very regular in his actions and is the best scapegoat. Yamazaki said.
Conan asked, "What about the motive?"
"Love and bread," Yamazaki said, "not everyone will choose love, and at their age, girlfriends are at least a decade ago, and they won't wait until now." Of course, the motive may be something else, but after the minister is transferred, he may be promoted to become a minister, and the motive is very small. ”
Conan asked, "And who do you think it is?"
"In Japanese companies, seniority is very serious," Yamazaki said, "Tatsuya Okubo was able to become a director in his thirties, probably because of those three creative blessings, and I think he has a good idea of this." In terms of motives, Mr. Minami is the most suspicious, and it is not surprising that he would be impulsive about the rejection of his proposal when he entered the workplace. These are still speculations, and no evidence has been found. ”
"Mr. Minami," said Conan, "but he didn't touch the ball at all, wait, if it's the head of the club......"
Yamazaki smiled, "Oh, it looks like you know something, and now the incident is resolved." ”
"Possibly. Conan said.
"Then I might be able to add a little more for you," Yamazaki said, "and you go and count how many balls are left on their side." ”
"Ball count?" Conan laughed, "That's a good idea. With that, he went to District 8.
At this time, forensic personnel reported that a ball painted with red lines was found in the bag of Section Chief Yasui.
"W-How is this possible?" said Section Chief Yasui was taken aback.
This is the most powerful proof of this. Maori laughed, "In case the ball doesn't work, you can use it as a backup." ”
Section Chief Yasui shouted, "It's not like that, it's not mine, I don't know anything." ”
Maori smiled proudly: "Actually, this incident ......"
Yamazaki stepped forward and whispered, "Uncle, it's not him. ”
"What?" Maori froze.
"If you can't find the prisoner, it's inevitable to search your belongings, and if you put it in your bag, you're not waiting to be caught. Yamazaki whispered, "If this matter was really planned by Mr. Yasui, he should have brought this red ball with him, and disposed of this red ball when he heard the explosion, but he was outside at that time, and he had every chance to deal with this red ball." ”
"Uh," Maori whispered in surprise after a moment's pause, "you're saying someone blames him." ”
"Yes. Yamazaki whispered, then watched Conan make a good gesture, and whispered, "Uncle, please count the penalties of the Twilight Police Department." ”
"Ball count?" Maori thought for a moment and smiled, "yes." Then he said, "Ahem! Actually, there is something I don't understand about this incident. Dusk Police Department, could you please have some points on the number of golf balls in this driving range? We were the only two people who came here this morning, and we and the two of them received a total of five times, a thousand golf balls. ”
"By the way," the Dusk Police Department laughed, "if it was an indiscriminate killing, then the ball with explosives should be mixed in with the thousand balls, and now that it has exploded, there should be one less golf ball here." ”
"It's also possible that the offender replaced a ball and took it out and disposed of it. Yamazaki said.
"That's the section chief. Director Okubo said, "Tomoshi went out when we got the ball, and only the section chief went out later." ”
Yamazaki said: "The Twilight Police Department, there are 200 balls in the net, and on our side, Uncle Maori's Zone 18 still has 157 balls, and my Zone 17 has 172 balls. ”
Conan came over and said, "Over there, there are no balls left in Zone 9, and there are still ninety-one balls in Zone 8." In this way, the four zones add up to a total of 420 balls, plus the balls in the net, there are 620 balls still left, and another 380 balls can be pointed. ”
"Very well, go and order it and see if there are still three hundred and eighty golf balls. The Twilight Police Department commanded. ……
