Chapter 21: The Truth
"Why are you again?"
Seeing the uncle's twilight police department, he seemed to sigh and seemed to feel a little headache. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because he found that many of the cases he encountered recently seemed to be related to his uncle.
At first, he helped rescue the kidnapped little girl, and then solved the case at the house of the female star Yoko Okino.
And now it's here again.
How long has it been? Obviously, I hadn't seen this private detective so active before.
In this regard, the uncle is naturally happy.
"That's right, it's me, Dusk Police, and of course, no one has touched the body."
The uncle himself has not touched it, he is not a coroner, and in that state, he can't approach casually.
After all, there are blood stains all over the ground, and it would be bad if you approach it casually, in case you destroy any remaining evidence.
And you don't need to get close to something that you can see at a glance.
The Twilight Police Department is too lazy to pay attention to the uncle, and the current uncle is not a detective, so he knows the uncle's Twilight Police Department very well, so naturally he doesn't have much hope.
Although the uncle has successfully solved the case before, maybe it was just luck.
The uncle didn't care, he was still looking everywhere and watching.
The Twilight Police Department is asking Ochiai if they have seen the killer or anything.
But apparently not.
However, there is also a camera here in the Hell Pavilion, so it may not be possible to capture anything.
So a large group of people moved to the monitoring room and called up the surveillance video to watch.
There is also time on the video, so the time of the crime can be determined, 4:25 p.m.
What appeared on the screen was first a piece of armor.
That armor, uncle, they have also seen, when I was chatting with Ochiai in the hall before, the staff called Watata was responsible for carrying this armor, and he treated this armor very roughly.
But it's a little strange that Ochiai, who cherishes these works of art, didn't say anything about it, obviously before that, Wata's removal of the painting without gloves was scolded by him for being a bloody dog.
The uncle frowned slightly and made a note of the suspicion.
Conan obviously remembered it too, and frowned as well.
The screen continues.
Boss Manaka appeared in the picture, and looked at the time, as if he had made an appointment with someone to meet there.
But no one else showed up.
However, the bloody scene happened just when the boss turned his head away from the armor.
The armor, which was supposed to be just an ornament, took action, and with a sword slash, it hit Manaka's back.
Forced Manaka to the wall, and finally used the sword in his hand to nail Manaka to the wall.
"Huh?"
Uncle frowned.
The Twilight Police Department didn't seem to find anything else, and continued to inquire about the situation.
But the uncle regressed the video and played it slowly.
I don't know what the purpose is.,Forced into a corner, Zhenzhong was not killed immediately.。
This seems to give Aka a chance.
At the stand on the side, a piece of paper was picked up, then a pen was picked up, and it seemed that something was written, but the pen was quickly thrown away.
Then he was nailed to the wall, but he still had the paper in his hand.
"On purpose!"
Uncle was the first to decide.
The murderer definitely deliberately let Manaka get the paper and pen.
Unless there is absolute self-confidence, no one will procrastinate when killing.
Moreover, Manaka's actions, the murderer definitely saw it, but he didn't stop it, obviously, he deliberately let Manaka get the paper and pen.
But is there any special meaning in this?
Uncle frowned.
What if, for example, there is something on that piece of paper, such as a name......
"Blame the blame!"
It's quite possible.
The uncle frowned, ignoring the Twilight Police Department, who was still asking for testimony over there, and left the monitoring room and walked towards the scene of the crime.
The scene of the crime has been cordoned off and several police officers are there to keep watch.
When the uncle came, they didn't stop him, and just let the uncle in.
The body has been put down, the photo shoot has ended, and several forensic classes are still collecting evidence.
The uncle put on his gloves and walked over to the corpse and squatted down.
Soon, in the corpse's right hand, a crumpled piece of paper was taken out.
The paper seems a little dirty, but it doesn't interfere with reading.
On it, a name came into view.
"Kuwata."
So is the murderer Kuwata?
Of course not.
According to previous speculation, the murderer was not Wata, who was framed and blamed.
Moreover, on the paper, there are some scratches, because the paper is a little dirty, those scratches are clear.
It was a scratch that tried to cross out the name on it, but didn't succeed.
Thinking of the scene of the video, it is obvious that the pen that I got in the real middle cannot be written.
That's why I threw away the pen angrily.
The killer was not Kuwata.
Uncle confirmed this again.
So who is the murderer?
If you really want to say that there is a grudge against the truth, there is a grudge against the Wata.
No, there doesn't even need to be a feud, as long as there is a reason for them to die.
And the one who has such a reason......
"Won't it?"
The uncle frowned, unable to believe the speculation in his heart.
And at this time, the Twilight Police Department also came over.
I guess Conan also discovered the problem in the video and reported it to the Twilight Police Department.
"Brother Maori, why are you so fast?"
The Twilight Police Department was a little surprised that the uncle had already come over, and he hadn't called them yet.
Conan was a little surprised, but not as surprised as he had been at the beginning.
The uncle is not so wasteful, he also found out, and he slowly got used to it.
It's just that I didn't expect the uncle to discover these problems faster than him.
However, the uncle didn't say much, his face seemed a little gloomy, and he stuffed the paper into the hands of the Dusk Police Department.
Then, it went around the room again.
He already had a guess, but he didn't want to believe it.
Perhaps, new evidence can be found to disprove the current speculation.
Conan and Xiaolan both looked at the uncle and found that the uncle seemed to be in a bad mood.
What's the situation?
They kind of can't figure it out.
The Twilight Police Department didn't bother with it, and when they saw the name on the paper, they locked Wakuda as the first suspect.
At the same time, the police will be arranged to investigate matters related to Kuwata.
And Kuwata is also motivated, because he stole things from the art museum and sold them, and was recently forced to pay back by Manaka.
On the face of it, all the evidence points to Kuwata.
If the investigation is not carried out, Wakuta will really have to take the blame.
But the uncle found it.
On the ground behind several shelves with sculptures, the pen that was thrown away by Manaka in the video was found.
The uncle didn't pick up the pen, just glanced at it.
Take out a cigarette and put it in your mouth, take out a lighter and light it.
He took a deep puff and slowly spit it out.
It's a ballpoint pen, but the nib is stored inside.
A person who is about to be killed, will he still have the leisure to put away the tip of his pen?
Of course not.
This pen was put down later.
The pens that were really thrown away have been put away.
Perhaps, still with me, maybe, has been thrown away.
But what is certain is that the pen will definitely not work.
Otherwise, Manaka will be able to change the name on the paper.
One ring after another, it is conceivable that this is a planned killing.
The rumor that the previous medieval armor could walk may have been accidentally seen by someone when the murderer was doing exercises.
"Hoo ......"
He took another puff of cigarette and let out a long breath.
Believe it or not, the truth is the truth.
Uncle is a detective, although not before, but now.
The detective's job is to find out the truth.
Perhaps emotionally, unwilling to find out or believe the truth.
But work is work.
Uncle is not a saint, just an ordinary person.
So this truth still has to be told after all.
