Chapter 33: The Duke of Night's Murder 5
"Hey~ Why am I so unlucky, I want to watch this kind of thing alone. Pen%Fun%Ge www.biquge.info I really hope that the interrogation will end soon. ”
Inside an office in a hotel. A policeman sat on a stool and looked at Tokio Ehara's body in the center of the room. Instantly, I felt a yin wind blowing
"Knock knock~~"
There was a knock on the office door.
"Great. The shift has finally arrived. ”
The policeman walked out. Suddenly, I felt a gust of wind in the back of my head, and I fainted.
Conan and Ran take the elevator back to their room on the nineteenth floor.
Everyone who participated in the tour group was vague in their words.
How did the murderer escape from the room after pushing Mr. Ehara off the balcony of his room?
The room was locked with an anti-theft lock from the inside, how could he escape?
Or is it that Miss Sayama lied, she deliberately pushed Mr. Ehara off the balcony, then locked the door and fell directly to the ground and pretended to pass out to confuse the police officer.
But if that's the case, then how can it be proven that she is the murderer?
Now I only know that regardless of whether Miss Sayama lied or not, the murderer is still in this hotel.
While Conan had been thinking about the case, the elevator had risen to nineteen floors.
However after the door opened. A man dressed as the Duke of the Night watched Conan and Ran from outside the elevator.
Xiaolan, who panicked for a while, blocked Conan behind her. Attacked directly at the Duke of Night.
However, all attacks were perfectly dodged by the Duke of Night.
Xiaolan's expression suddenly became gloomy.
The man disguised as the Duke of Night fled while Xiaolan was in a daze.
Temporary interrogation room in the hotel
"What? He showed up? What are you doing! Why didn't you catch him! ”
Mori Kogoro snarled angrily at Ran.
"I'm sorry! I was shocked. ”
Xiaolan explained very embarrassedly.
"Officer Yokogou, Misawa fainted in the body settlement room. It looks like someone knocked me unconscious. ”
Two officers in charge of the death of the unconscious officer walked in.
"What about the remains?"
Officer Henggou hurriedly asked.
"The body is all right, but the clothes of the night man are suddenly gone."
One of the officers replied.
"Officer Henggou!"
"What's wrong again?"
Officer Henggou saw another officer hurrying in.
"Duke of the Night is in the pool!"
The officer who had just come in said breathlessly.
"What!"
Maori and the others were shocked when they heard this.
Pool side on the ground floor.
"Masks and hats, wigs and cloaks!"
"Where is the most important Duke of Night?"
Maori asked, looking at the equipment of the Duke of the Night soaking in the pool.
"I don't know."
The officer who spotted the equipment had a confused expression on his face.
Conan knelt on the edge of the pool. Glancing up at the balcony above the pool: he must have thrown his clothes into the pool from there.
But why, the murderer had to appear in front of the elevator dressed like that. If he has something to do upstairs, he should also take the stairs to avoid people's eyes.
Why did he have to dress like that? There was no need for him to risk his clothes at all. This technique is too far-fetched.
Could it be that this operation was an accident for the murderer?
"Alright, let's re-investigate, let's gather all who can."
Officer Yokogou stood up and ordered the officer next to him.
"Yes!"
Temporary interrogation room.
"When the Duke of Night appeared, everyone stayed in their rooms except for Miss Sayama, who was under our surveillance. But no one has been able to prove it. In other words, when Miss Xiaolan and the others were attacked in the elevator, you didn't have an alibi at the door. That's right. ”
Officer Yokogou said to someone who was at the premises.
"Wait a minute, I've been in my room as you instructed. Does this still need to be proven! ”
Satoshi Maeda came up with his own ideas.
"yes, we're staying in the room too."
Kenichiro Kaneshiro said it was the same.
"We're not stupid enough not to take the police seriously."
"That's it."
"All in all. Everyone's room is going to be searched by the police! First of all, can I start with Mr. Maeda? ”
"Yes."
In room 1901, the police are carefully searching every corner of the room. Including items from Satoshi Maeda and Akiko Sayama.
Conan was lying on the windowsill of the room. Looking up from the windowsill. The balcony of Mr. Ehara's room 2101 is directly above Mr. Maeda's room 1901. But because of the design of the hotel. The balcony is not facing the same direction.
The nineteenth and twentieth floors seem to have been rotated horizontally at an angle of forty-five degrees from the middle. Below the balcony on the twentieth floor is a concave 90-degree angle formed by the walls of the two rooms.
I already have a rough idea of what this room is like. Mr. Ehara fell to his death from that balcony.
The killer was to make Mr. Ehara dress up as the Duke of the Night so that the whole thing looked like an accident. However, Mr. Ehara's room, which is also the scene of the murder, was locked with an anti-theft lock from the inside.
In other words, the murderer did not come out of the door of Mr. Ehara's room after pushing him downstairs.
So either Miss Sayama is the murderer. Or, it's a closed room homicide.
If the killer was able to escape from that room, the only way to escape was through the balcony. But it was impossible for him to enter the room from the outside.
"What's going on with this medicine?"
Officer Yokozo asked as he searched for a plate of white pills from Akiko Sayama's mouth.
"This is just a regular sleeping pill, and I have been having a bit of insomnia lately, so I keep it in my pocket. Isn't it possible? ”
Akiko Sayama asked rhetorically.
"Let me see it too."
Conan took the white pill from Officer Henggou's hand. The pill was just one pill that was used.
Inside the room of Genichiro Kaneshiro at No. 2001.
"Hehehehe~~ No matter how much you check, you can't find out why. Mr. Officer. ”
Kenichiro Kaneshiro sat on the sofa with a crutch and looked indifferent.
"Whew~~"
Suddenly, a strong wind blew inside. Both Kogoro Mori and Officer Yokomizo's hairstyles were blown up.
"It's that imp again!"
Mori Kogoro gritted his teeth and looked at Conan lying on the balcony.
Conan looked at the balcony of room 2101 overhead: Mr. Ehara was pushed down from the balcony above. If you are too reluctant, you will not be able to get down there.
"Hey~~"
Conan was suddenly picked up by Mori Kogoro.
"You stinky little ghost! Why did you come with me again? ”
"I wanted to come here to learn what my uncle looks like as a detective."
Conan slapped Kogoro Maori's ass.
"Oh? That's right. Since you say so, let's take a good look at it. ”
Maori, who was carried away by the sycophants, happily put Conan down.
"Grandpa, has this window been locked all along?"
Conan stood by the window of the balcony and pointed to the window, which showed no signs of being damaged at all.
"Hehe~~ My eyes are inconvenient, so I don't know. You tell me? Jingjiang. ”
Genichiro Kaneshiro sat on the sofa and didn't say much.
"Of course, we'll check them all every time we go out."
Lin Jingjiang stood behind Mr. Jincheng and replied respectfully.
"Then, let's go to Konno's room."
Officer Henggou put away the notepad and said.
"Oh~ Speaking of this Konno, I've heard that some people suspect him of using the computer in his bank without authorization, and I've heard that his behavior has now been discovered. He's probably the one among us who wants to see the Duke of Night the most. ”
"But it's just rumors."
Kenichiro Kaneshiro, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly said a very unfavorable news for Mr. Konno.
