"Yes, something happened a little bit, maybe I'll have to go back later."

Gao Cheng stepped aside and called Gray Yuan, groaned, and looked at the forensic personnel who came and went.

For the detective, of course, the more challenging cases the better, not to mention that he can also exchange the case for cards, but he still hates the case in front of him from the bottom of his heart.

With his hands in his pockets, he stepped inside, his eyes falling on Butler Shigematsu, who was bathed in the flashing lights of the forensic staff.

The fatal wound was in the chest, and there were almost no traces of a fight when he was killed, but the blood from the wound was spurted badly, and it should have splashed on the murderer's body, and it was not only the murder knife that needed to be found, but also the blood-stained clothes.

Judging from the situation of the secret room, the murderer may have escaped through the balcony, but there was no blood on the balcony......

"What about this cat?" An forensic officer points to the gray cat found behind the corpse.

"Oh, it's Mr. Moriyan's cat," Gao Cheng lifted the lazy gray cat, and handed it to the head of the Morinano family despite the gray cat's struggles, "It's really gelding for you to run around again!" ”

The gray cat was divided, honestly shrunk in the arms of the head of the Mori Garden, and was finally hugged by the eldest daughter Mori Garden Lily River.

"Has the cat been on site all this time?" Hattori asked, looking at the gray cat.

"Even if it's there, it's useless, and cats can't speak." Uncle Maori was not interested in the cat being at the scene, but he saw that the gray cat was very affectionate to the Lily River of Morizono, and sighed, "This cat really likes Miss Morien." ”

"Because Yurie is very similar to the deceased insider," said the head of the Mori Garden, "Kikuto and I are only a little better when we feed it." ”

"But how did it get here?"

"Police Department!" Takagi found Twilight, "It's been confirmed, and the only people who came in and out of the courtyard during this time were the reporters who came with us after the incident." ”

"Really?" Twilight perked up, "That means the murderer is still in this house!" ”

"The servants here almost always eat in the restaurant an hour before the body is found, and then start discussing the process of tomorrow's wedding," Takagi looked at the head of the Morien family, "There are only five people here who don't have a clear alibi." ”

"I see," Twilight said in a deep voice, "I'll ask you each other later, but now I'll search for a brief and wait in the room!" ”

The search for the murder weapon continued, but there was no result in the house or even in the courtyard outside.

The murder weapon and the bloody clothes seemed to have completely disappeared, Gao Cheng went to the balcony of the room where the incident occurred, and went downstairs to investigate, but he couldn't find the slightest clue, it stands to reason that if the murderer escaped through the balcony, he would leave some traces.

Walking to the door, Hattori and Conan stood together, no matter whether the two of them would have as many emotions as him, they would have been completely immersed in the incident, quite a bit of competition and cooperation.

"Kudo ......" Hattori looked at the police officers who were searching and investigating in the courtyard, and asked Conan next to him, "What time did you find it?" ”

"Four o'clock." Conan held out four fingers affirmatively.

Hattori had a hint of joy on his face: "You really found four suspicious points!" ”

Conan was not complacent, but said calmly: "The first is the murder weapon that the murderer took away from the scene, since it is going to be a secret room murder, if the murder weapon is next to the corpse, the possibility of being considered a suicide increases, and he is not easy to be suspected......"

"The second is the blood stains on the corpse being dragged," Hattori replied in a deep voice, "why do you have to drag the corpse to the next room?" ”

"The third is that only the room where the body was found is lit."

"The fourth point is even stranger."

Hattori and Conan looked at each other and laughed at the same time, "That cat, right?" ”

Gao Cheng leaned his back against the wall, and in front of him was a flickering system light curtain.

He could just use the one-minute mode, and maybe be able to recreate the scene once, but it would be appropriate to collect some clues.

He doesn't have any idea of fair competition with Conan and Hattori, since there is a way to help crack the case, of course he must find out the truth as soon as possible, not to mention helping the housekeeper Shigematsu catch the murderer, this incident itself is related to the exchange of ability cards, and it would be funny if he failed to solve the case in advance.

After standing for a while, Gao Cheng followed Officer Twilight to interrogate the five suspects.

The head of the Mori Garden family said that he had made an appointment to talk to the housekeeper Shigematsu, so they were waiting in the study at the time of the crime.

The eldest daughter, Lily River, is taking a bath.

The eldest son, Kiku, reads magazines and listens to music in the room.

The maid Sakuraba is looking for cats everywhere according to the instructions of the head of the Mori Garden.

Only Katagiri Kaede's confession had some problems, saying that she was taking a nap in her room, but Yuri Jiang went to take a bath with her, and no one in the room responded.

Gao Cheng gave Kataki Kaede a special look.

Holding a small notebook to compare the characteristics of several suspects.

Katagiri Kaede was very strange when she was in Meiji Jingu, and it didn't seem that she really wanted to marry into the Morien family, but there was no big reason to kill the Shigematsu housekeeper, and through the conversation, the Shigematsu housekeeper was just acting as a matchmaker between her and the Morien family.

However, a reporter revealed that Kikuto Morizono had put pressure on Katagiri Kaede's father's company to force her to agree to this family business.

As for Kikuto Morizono, he himself suffers from a fear of heights, and it is difficult for him to escape from the balcony.

The owner of the forest garden family was also unable to escape from the balcony because of a car accident with inconvenient legs.

Speaking of which, the maid Sakuraba is quite athletic, and it should be easy to leave from the balcony even if he doesn't borrow a rope, but there is no reason for this person to let the cat stay on the scene.

In the end, the eldest daughter Morien Lily River, who is quite close to the gray cat, has not found any problems for the time being.

Gao Cheng thought about it and found Katagiri Kaede alone.

"Miss Xiaofeng," Gao Cheng opened his mouth to meet the girl's worried gaze and asked, "Can you please tell me the truth?" You don't want Butler Shigematsu to die like this, do you? And if this continues, the police may take you or Miss Yurikawa away. ”

"I ......"

Katagiri Feng lowered his head and couldn't open his mouth, Gao Cheng shook his head helplessly.

It doesn't matter if Katagiri Kaede is for himself or for whom, he wants to reproduce the scene in a one-minute mode now, and first deduce where the murder weapon is.

Once the murder weapon is found, he believes that with his own ability, he can find the killer before the two Conans.

Returning to the room where the crime occurred, Gao Cheng went through the details of the case again.

Broken glass, locked doors and windows, blood stains left by dragging corpses, corpses in the next room, murder weapons that were not at the scene, cats staying in the room, blood stains on the deadbolts, glass with small holes in the corners, and the conflict between Kikuto Morizono and Sakuraba......

Gao Cheng walked slowly, the surrounding scene changed rapidly, and he returned to the time of the crime.

After the murderer killed the housekeeper Shigesong, he dragged the body next door and ......

Instead of going back to the next room to break the glass, because there was no corresponding trace, the murderer opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony with blood-stained gloves, disposed of the murder weapon and bloody clothes through some means, and then broke the window on the other side to attract attention.

Gao Cheng frowned and stopped on the balcony.

Normally, it is indeed possible to lock it from the outside through the small hole in the floor-to-ceiling window, and at the same time escape through the balcony, and it is also suspicious to break the glass with small holes during the previous conflict between Morizono Kikuren and Sakurabi, as if it was deliberately destroyed.

But when you look at it in all the details, it's very wrong.

Gao Cheng closed his eyes and re-broke down the clues, rewinding the situation when he found the corpse in his mind.

Hearing the sound of Kazuha's scream, Morizono Yurie was the first to arrive, followed by the head of the Morien family, the maids Sakuraba and Katagiri Kaede, and finally Morizono Kikuto also arrived at the scene.

The murderer must have been at that time and pretended to hear the screams like everyone else.

If that were all there was to it, there would be no need to drag the corpse inside, unless it was to lead everyone to the inner room.

Why do you do this......

Gao Cheng opened his eyes suddenly.

There is also a possibility that the murderer did not escape from the balcony at all, but hid in the next room after breaking the window, and after they slammed the door, their attention was immediately attracted by the broken window and the blood stains on the ground, and they didn't think too much about it and directly followed the blood marks to find the murdered housekeeper Chongsong.

In this way, it is possible for the Morizono chrysanthemum with a fear of heights, the head of the Morien family with inconvenient legs and feet, and even the remaining two women.

However, there is only one person who is the most suspicious.

The corners of Gao Cheng's mouth turned up, and his eyes looked straight at the leafy trees outside the balcony.

In any case, there were no traces on the balcony, and the only place where the murder weapon could be disposed of and difficult for the police to find was only one place, and no one would have thought that the murder weapon would be among the branches, presumably the murder knife and bloody clothes were tied together and thrown over.

The rest is the gray cat that was left at the scene, if not by coincidence, the murderer to frame the maid Sakurabi.

Because of the cat, Sakuraba doesn't have an alibi like other servants, and on the surface, it seems that only the athletic Sakuraba can commit crimes.

The murderer was Morien Juren, yes, when the body was found, almost everyone else arrived one after another, only Morien Kikuto appeared quietly at the end, and no one saw if he entered the room from the outside.

However, even if it is known that the murderer is Kikuto Morisono, there is no conclusive evidence.

I can't say that after I reappeared at the scene, I determined that the murderer was Kikuto Morisono......

Gao Cheng left the balcony and almost collided with Conan Hattori.

"Hey, Joto, did you find anything?" Hattori couldn't help but ask.

It's not surprising that Gao Cheng is too quiet, but from the previous situation, it seems that it shouldn't be worse than him and Kudo.

"A little, what about you?" Gao Cheng also wanted to find the two of them to deal with the clues, but he still didn't know the motives of Morizono Kikuto.

After all, no matter what Steward Chongsong says, he has worked for the Senyuan family for so many years, and how much hatred he has made such a dead hand.

"We've found another key to solving the mystery," Hattori frowned as soon as he was involved in solving the case, and explained with Conan looking at each other, "Joto, you must not have guessed that Miss Kaede actually likes Mr. Sakuraba, and the two of them are likely to be boyfriend and girlfriend. ”

"Huh?" Gao Cheng really didn't expect it, and said in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

"We also saw it just now, Mr. Sakuraba is wearing the same necklace pendant as Miss Kaede, if it weren't for the intimacy, wouldn't it be like this?"

"Necklace Pendant ......"

Gao Cheng had long noticed the necklace around Katagiri Kaede's neck, and originally thought it was just an ordinary ornament.

What is this called, fiancé murder to blame real boyfriend......

"The situation of the two of them is very similar to Uncle Shigematsu in the past, I heard that Mrs. Morien originally liked Uncle Shigematsu, but Lord Morien misunderstood and proposed to her," Hattori looked at the head of the Morigen family on the other side and said, "But this time it was Uncle Shigemun who misunderstood and helped Master Kikuto propose a kiss." ”

Gao Cheng thought of the news revealed by the reporter before, and said, "It's really ...... It's complicated. ”

"What about you?" After speaking, Hattori looked at Gao Cheng, "There should be something you found, right?" ”

"Me? I probably know where the murder weapon is. ”

"Huh?"
