Chapter 1451: The Incident of the Toy Club
Saturday, July 31.
Today is the Sumida River fireworks festival, Yamazaki, Midaiko, Mori, Ran, Sonoko, Hattori, Kazuba, Dr. Asasa, Conan, Ashbara, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Motota gathered at Rice Flower Square in the morning and took a bus to Asakusa.
After squeezing all morning, everyone finally finished paying homage at Sensoji Kaminarimon.
Lunch was eaten at Ushii in Kobe, and when I came out, I noticed a police car from the Metropolitan Police Department passing by, and everyone followed, led by Mori.
From a distance, the Twilight Police Department got out of the police car, and the target was a toy store, and a cordon had been set up outside.
"Twilight Police!" Mori hurriedly ran over, and Hattori and Conan were not far behind.
Seeing Maori and the others, the Twilight Police Department was speechless, but Officer Takagi said hello.
Maori knowingly asked, "Dusk Police Department, what ...... are you?"
"The police department, anyway, the evidence has been collected, why don't you let the Maori detectives try, and the Hattori detectives are also there, they will definitely be able to speed up the resolution of this incident. ”
"All right, Maori, come in with me, but you can only watch, and you are not allowed to move things. ”
"Understood, thank you to the police department. ”……
Inside the toy store.
This is a small building of a toy store and residence, and the storefront on the first floor sells enlightenment toys, from flat literacy puzzles, to three-dimensional literacy building blocks, to electronic readers.
The person who was killed was Kenhito Totani, the president of the toy club, who died at around 8 pm on the 29th, and was found at about half past nine in the morning of the 30th the next day, and the discoverers were four employees.
The body of the deceased is in the living room on the second floor, of course, it is no longer there, it is only marked.
This living room has also been converted into a studio, with a long table stacked with a large number of work-related miscellaneous items, pens, toys, books, etc.
An inkwell poured into the room and fell onto the table, spilling ink from the table to the floor, creating a puddle not only but also on both sides of the body.
The body of the deceased was also in the ground on the inside of the long table, and just below the ink, along with a pile of literacy building blocks.
Hattori said: "Judging from the large amount of blood on the head and the scratches on the floor, the deceased must have been broken by something while lying on the ground." ”
"It's like Hattori Detective, and I saw so many things when I came. "The murder weapon was a golf club, but the deceased was lying on his side facing the inside of the room, with his back to the long table, with his hands and feet tied behind him. ”
"Oh, did he leave a message of death?" asked Conan.
"How do you know that?" Mitsuhiko asked.
"Of course," Maori said, "judging by the ink, he should be flipping back and forth, using the pile of literacy bricks in front of him." ”
"Indeed," said the Dusk Police, "we've cracked the death message this time, so let's investigate again." ”
Mei Daizi said: "The death information is here, what else is there to investigate, you should arrest people directly." ”
"No, the abnormality around the deceased, the prisoner can't see it, but he didn't stop the transmission of the death message, which can only show that the death message is wrong," Yamazaki said, "It's not good that the prisoner deliberately guided the deceased and wanted to find a scapegoat to take the blame." ”
"That's right," the Twilight Police Department said, "we're suspicious of it too. ”
"Could it be that the prisoner doesn't know?" asked Sonoko.
"No," Officer Takagi said, "the four literacy blocks left by the deceased are right next to the deceased, and one side of them is still stained with ink, and you can tell there is something wrong with it." ”
Dr. Asa asked, "What is the death message?"
"It's four literacy building blocks, and the side circled by the red pen represents the side that is stained with ink. Officer Takagi showed everyone the four literacy blocks, "Then, there were four people who found the body of the deceased at that time, Miss Aika Nao, Mr. Hasami Jun, Mr. Koo Nakashi, and Mr. Iwatomi. ”
"I see, it refers to Yan Fuchuang. Hattori said.
"How so?" asked the garden, "how can this be spelled out?"
"Stupid, look at the other side of this hexahedron in reverse. Hattori said.
Gray Yuan said: "I see, put together is the Roman character of Iwafuchuang." As he spoke, he put the blocks together.
"Xiao Ai is so powerful. Ayumi praised.
Yuan Tai asked, "But why this side?"
Conan said, "Because the deceased has to hold this side so that the other side can be stained with ink." ”
"The police department," Yamazaki asked, "there must be some special reason why the deceased was able to identify Mr. Iwatomi as the murderer, right?"
"I don't know about this yet. The Dusk Police Department said.
"In short, the prisoner is familiar with Mr. Iwatomi," Officer Takagi laughed, "and it allows us to narrow down the circle of suspects to acquaintances." ”
"Maybe it was one of the four people who found the body. Maori laughed, "The prisoner is definitely adding to the problem." ”
At this time, Officer Chiba came in with a woman, three men, and four middle-aged men and women.
Aika Nao, Hasami Jun, Naka Paper Koo, Iwa Fuchuang.
"Ahem," the Dusk Police Department said, "Guys, do you have any unique hobbies?"
"When it comes to my unique hobby, I like to collect fishing gloves. ”
Hausami said, "In that case, I like to collect sunglasses. ”
"I like to collect the horse hats I wear when I ride horses. ”
"I like to collect golf shoes. ”
"That's right, that's it, golf shoes. Hattori said, "The deceased must have seen the murderer wearing golf shoes from under the long table, so he decided that the murderer was Iwatomi." ”
Iwatomi-chuang, "What? No, the murderer is not me. ”
"Don't get excited," Mori laughs, "and we don't think you're the murderer right now, and we think you might have been framed by the real murderer." ”
Aika Nao confirmed, "The real murderer?"
"It's among you. The garden said.
"Don't waste our time, turn yourself in. Mei Daiko said, "With Uncle Maori, you can't escape." ”
"Maori?" "Maori," he said, looking at Maori, "Ah, are you a Maori detective?"
"That's right. Mori said proudly, "I'm Detective Mori Kogoro." ”
This made Conan and Hattori listen to it, and they had some toothache.
"We are the Junior Detectives. Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko shouted as they pulled up, and they also pulled Conan and Gray Plain.
"Detective Maori," Hakuzo looked at Hattori, "this is Heiji Hattori, a high school detective." ”
Hattori said proudly: "That's right, I'm Hattori Heiji." ”
"Heh, I'm confident, but I don't want to gamble, so I should be wise. Pozo said with emotion, and then said to the Twilight Police Department, "Officer, I want to turn myself in, I killed Kenhito Totani. ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all reacted.
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Mr. Posami, this is not a joke, are you serious?"
"Yes, I'm serious. Hazumi said.
Ai Kana was a little excited, "Then why did you kill him?"
"I really didn't expect that you were both divorced, and you still have feelings for him," Posami Jun sighed, "People, it's really complicated." ”
The paper man asked with a strange face: "Bozo, you can't do this because of that incident, right?"
Hattori asked, "What is it?"
Hasami Jun sneered, "Our president, Kenhito Totani, and this vice president, Mr. Iwatomi, have decided to sell defective toys abroad at cheap prices for the sake of the company's profits. ”
The Twilight Police Department looked at Iwafuchuang dissatisfied, "Is that really the case?"
"No, Mr. Officer, he's not right. Yan Fuchuang hurriedly explained, "The defective toys we are talking about are according to the relevant toy standards of our country, and for other countries, according to the relevant toy standards of their countries, our defective toys are still qualified products, and there is no defective product, so what we do is completely reasonable and legal." ”
Ai Nao said, "That's right, officer. ”
"No, no matter what you say, I'm going to stop you from doing that. Pozo said with some pain, "I used to have a child who died because of a substandard children's toy. ”
Zhongzhi Gongnan smiled bitterly: "Please, the standards were different at that time, and they have been changed later." ”
Pozo exclaimed, "But if you sell these defective products to other countries, you will also hurt the children of other countries." ”
"We don't take this responsibility," Mr. Iwa said, "and this is when officials in those countries set relevant standards, thinking more about the cheaper and more competitive products than about the products being better and more suitable for human use." ”
Aika Nao said: "The only thing we can do about this is sympathy. ”
"Excuses, excuses," exclaimed Hazumi Posa, "we can sell those qualified products." ”
"In the high-end toy market, we are very competitive. "In order for the company to survive, for the sake of employees, we need to get involved in more markets." ”
"Don't use the company's survival as an excuse. Posami sneered, "Do you know that when Kenhito Totani found out that he was tied up, he wanted to buy his life with money, do you know how much it was? ”
"No, you're wrong, it's not our company's money," Aika Nao said, "it's his own money, the money we got from selling the house when we divorced and divided the property, and it was at the height of housing prices." ”
The Twilight Police Department asked with a cold face, "Mr. Pozo saw Jun, so you still took the money?"
"Yes, I took it, anyway, after his death, the property will have no heirs, and all the property will be confiscated by the state, and then it will be used to spend it indiscriminately on those officials," said Hasami Jun, "It is better for me to do something meaningful." Then he laughed, "I gave them all anonymously to charity." ”
The crowd was speechless and had nothing to say.
"By the way, I won't admit this," Pozo said with a smile, "I know that murder and robbery are capital crimes, so I only admit to killing people, not taking money." ”
"By the way," Iwafuchuang accused, "since you say you are so great, then why do you blame me?"
"Look, didn't I turn myself in?" said Hazumi Hazumi, "Blame you, that's the president's own choice, I just want to confuse the police for a while so that I can donate." ”
Iwatomi asked, "But why does the president think it's me?"
"I happened to be wearing shoes that looked like golf shoes that day, and he only glanced at them, so he seemed to have made a mistake. ”
"What do you mean by that?" asked Maori.
"The shop downstairs closes at five o'clock in the afternoon, and I came in through the side door. "I knocked on the door and blocked the cat's eye on the door, and as soon as the president opened the door, I put the spray containing the coma agent into the crack of the door, knocked him unconscious, and then dragged him upstairs and tied him up and gagged him, he should have seen my shoes when he passed out." ”
"Poof!" Sonoko laughed, "Hattori, you said you saw shoes here at the long table." ”
Hattori's face darkened and he didn't speak.
"How is it possible, in order not to leave footprints, I came in after changing my shoes. Pozo said, "Anyway, I often wear shoes here, and I can't find any evidence from it." ”
Officer Takagi laughed, "Oh, speaking of which, there really aren't any other footprints on the ground. ”
Hattori's face was completely black, and at the same time, he straightened up his triangular eyes, and looked at Officer Takagi with resentment, didn't you say this kind of thing earlier?
The Twilight Police Department asked, "So, why did you put Kenhito Totani on the inside?"
"Because I was going to set him on fire, along with the defective toys in the storeroom below. "But I checked them one by one and found that all the toys were qualified products, and all the defective toys had been shipped away, so I changed my mind." ”
Maori asked, "So, what's going on with this ink?"
"I think the president woke up and hit the table when he rolled over and ran away, knocking over the inkwell, and he left a message with the literacy building block next to him," Hasami said, "I actually saw it as if I didn't know." ”
Iwatomi said angrily: "So you want to blame me?"
"Originally, I wanted to take them later, but when I killed the president, the president struggled to speak, so I asked him to speak, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked me for money. "But it makes me hate him even more, even though he has money, he still has to do that kind of immoral thing." ”
"You're no better," Officer Takagi said, "and after you took the money, you killed him." ”
"Someone has to stop him," Pozo said with a smile, "I don't go to hell, who will." ”
"Ahem," the Twilight Police Department diverted the subject, "and then?"
"After I killed the president, I found out that the code he left should refer to Iwa Fuchuang, so I decided to let them stay at the scene to confuse the police and buy me some time. Pozo said, "If your police can't catch the murderer and suspect us, maybe they will detain us, which will delay my business." ”
The Twilight Police Department asked, "Is the thing you're talking about a donation?"
"Yes, there are many dreams in the night, so in case you find them, the sooner you can dispose of them, the better. Pozo said to him, "With this death information, if your police don't crack it on the spot and want to detain the four of us who found the body, I will crack it out, and then the three of us will be able to leave except for Iwatomi." ”
"I see. The Twilight Police Department said, "Okay, Mr. Hazomi, please come with us." ”……
Later, the toy club went bankrupt and reorganized, and no longer engaged in international trade, but laid off most of its personnel.
And because the money could not be found, Pozo was sentenced to murder and surrendered in the first instance and was sentenced to four years in prison.
In the second instance, Pozo found that he had mental problems and sent him to a rehabilitation center. ……
