Chapter 52: Finding Evidence That Isn't the Murderer
In the hallway, it was a little eerily quiet, and if it weren't for the sound of rain outside, the atmosphere would have seemed a little eerie. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But soon, the sound of "stampede" came.
turned his head to look over and found that it was Xiaolan who came back at a trot.
But the news brought back was not very good.
"What? Two hours for the police to come? ”
"Well, they said there was a celebration going on in the area today, and the road was very congested."
Xiaolan nodded.
So the uncle could only frown, and now in this situation, he couldn't wait for two hours.
After thinking about it carefully, he sighed.
"There's no way, it's up to us to decide."
"Well, did anyone bring a camera?"
Nakamichi Kazushi nodded and asked again.
Here, only he and his uncle are qualified to perform an autopsy, because he is a police officer, and his uncle is a detective, and he was also a police officer before.
On-site evidence collection naturally requires taking pictures, and the photos must be clear.
Fortunately, Jun Omura took the camera and ran back to the room to get it.
Kazushi Nakamichi also seems to be a little emotional.
"I really didn't expect that there would be a day when the two of us would conduct an autopsy."
"Hmm."
The uncle nodded in response, but didn't say anything more.
He didn't expect this day either, although his relationship with them was only inherited from Mori Kogoro.
But who can be ruthless? Besides, when the rabbit dies, the fox will still feel sad.
The death of a rabbit and a fox are sad and sad.
Seeing life disappear before my eyes is a little sentimental.
Unless, human nature has been abandoned.
Take off your outer clothes and wear only a yukata.
Jun Omura came over with a camera and handed it to Kazushi Nakamichi.
Kazushi Nakamichi said that he was in charge of taking pictures and asked his uncle to come and check them.
The uncle did not refuse.
It's just that my heart is full of a lot of ideas, but it's messy, and I haven't sorted out a clear main line.
The two of them entered the room together, and first Kazushi Nakamichi began to take pictures.
Then the uncle did the checkup.
Rolled up his sleeves, squatted down, and tried the stiffness by holding Yumi Horikoshi's feet.
The toes have begun to stiffen, indicating that it has been some time since death.
But with this alone, there is not much to be sure of.
So the uncle directly began to take off Yumi Horikoshi's clothes, also wearing a yukata, but it looked a little wide.
"Huh?"
When I took it off, I found that Yumi Horikoshi was not wearing underwear.
What's going on?
Uncle was a little puzzled.
Although it is neon here, it is said that when you wear a kimono, you don't wear underwear.
But the yukata is not a kimono, and it is not the kind of bath towel that you wear when you just take a bath.
"It's not just that!"
Suddenly, a child's voice came from the side.
When I turned my head, it was Conan.
"You see, Aunt Yumi's yukata is a bit big, and when she was in the hall, she wore a smaller one, and it was ......"
"Bang!"
Before Conan finished speaking, he was hit by his uncle.
Unceremoniously lifted Conan, who was a little dazed by the critical hit, and threw it out the door.
"Lan, take a good look at him."
"Uh-oh."
Xiaolan, who hurriedly caught Conan, responded.
Without paying attention, the kid ran out of her sight and into the scene.
So this time I just grabbed Conan and didn't let him run around.
In this regard, Conan could only be helpless and depressed.
Speaking of which, he and his uncle are the same, investigating by themselves, and there is basically no communication between the two sides.
It seems to be a tacit understanding, and it seems that it is just not enough to trust each other.
Of course, there are various reasons for this, Conan can't confess his identity after all, and a child with too strong reasoning skills can make people suspicious.
And uncle, under normal circumstances, is a little unhappy to watch Conan because of Xiaolan's affairs, let alone this time.
It seems that the biggest influence of the former Maori Kogoro on the uncle should be his daughter's control.
After throwing Conan out, Uncle continued to check.
Physical examination, as well as, examination of the pistol.
One thing that makes the uncle more concerned is that Yumi Horikoshi holds the hand of the gun, and the fingers are placed outside the trigger.
That's a bit out of the ordinary.
If you commit suicide, of course, you have to pull the trigger, and after death, unless someone moves, you should still have your finger on the trigger.
But no.
Coupled with the fact that there were no burns at the muzzle of the gun, it is almost certain that he killed rather than committed suicide.
So to make all this fakes,I guess I want to make people think that Yumi Horikoshi is committing suicide.。
This also excludes the possibility that an outsider committed the crime, because if it is an outsider, there is obviously no need to be so troublesome, you can just run away after killing someone, there is no need to do these disguises.
That is to say, the murderer is among these old classmates?
"Hiss......"
The uncle gasped and rubbed his eyes.
Feeling a little tired.
I wanted to find evidence that the killer was an outsider or a suicide.
But now, it has been determined that the murderer is an insider.
Finish the check and head out of the hallway.
Xiaolan took the coat from Xiaolan and put it on.
Xiaolan also hurriedly asked.
"Dad, did you find anything?"
"Judging by the degree of stiffness after death, the time of death was about seven hours ago."
Uncle illustrates this.
Now, that's all there is to him to have a little hope.
Holding on to a point, the murderer is not one of the hopes of several old classmates.
Because from now on, seven hours ago, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon.
And at that time, everyone was playing table tennis in the table tennis room, and only Jun Omura left for a while because he went to the toilet, but after careful calculation, it was less than a minute, no matter whether he really went to the toilet or not, there was obviously no way to commit the crime.
So, a good alibi.
But the uncle was not happy.
The more perfect it is, the more doubtful it becomes.
However, the uncle didn't say much about his own speculation, just told the general situation.
Let's say the pistol thing.
"Judging by this pistol, it's probably a suicide."
Kazushi Nakamichi also came to this conclusion.
Because on the day the pistol was lost, Yumi Horikoshi was also present at the scene.
So it is likely that he put away his pistol at that time, came here to attend the class reunion, and after meeting his old classmates who he hadn't seen for many years, he committed suicide because he wished.
And the reason for suicide, I said it in the afternoon, all kinds of pressure, overwhelming or something.
Nakado Kazushi's reasoning made Yukio Ayajo agree more.
But the uncle just frowned.
As a police officer, as a police officer who has worked for more than ten years, does he not have any observation and reasoning ability?
Of course not.
So, the muzzle of the gun on the temple, that's an obvious point of reasoning, and the hand holding the pistol, is also an obvious point of suspicion.
Is it because you didn't notice?
It's almost impossible.
Therefore, in such a situation, Nakado Kazushi thinks that Yumi Horikoshi is committing suicide.
How can this not be suspicious.
Uncle doesn't say these doubts, and Nakado Kazushi doesn't say either.
So this guy Conan came out again, and he thought that Uncle and Kazushi Nakamichi hadn't noticed.
"Na, when you commit suicide, do you have to put a pistol to your head?"
The child's voice broke the brief silence.
Everyone looked over and found that this little ghost was looking at everyone with a pure and innocent expression.
Uncle swore that at this time, he really wanted to throw Conan into the crematorium to purify him.
Originally, he planned to investigate on his own and not cause panic among other old classmates.
But now......
"By the way, Mori, when I checked it just now, Yumi's muzzle didn't seem to be burned."
Kazushi Nakamichi still chose to say this.
Naturally, the uncle can't deny this.
"So, it's a homicide?"
"Do you want to say that the murderer is between us?"
Yukio Ayagi and Noriko Ayajo also reacted.
If you don't say this well, it will affect everyone's feelings.
"Xingxiong, don't guess, we all said just now, the time of death was three o'clock in the afternoon, we were all in the table tennis room at that time, only Ah Chun left to go to the toilet, but it was less than a minute, and I remember that it seemed to be around five o'clock at that time, so it was impossible to commit the crime."
Kazushi Nakamichi hurriedly comforted him, he remembered it very clearly, after all, he had been sitting on the side at that time, and he basically didn't play.
After saying that, he walked into the room again and watched it.
Walked to the opposite side again, next to Yumi Horikoshi, opened the balcony door, and opened the window.
"According to the design of the eaves, the murderer can go anywhere from the eaves, and the entrance door is not locked, so it is indeed very likely that people from the outside can enter inside."
With that, he closed the window again.
"Anyway, let's ask the people at the hotel first."
As soon as he said this, everyone also felt that it made sense, so they walked down one after another.
