Chapter 81: Super Teammates Buy One Get Two Free
While Yokozo and Uncle were grinding at the door, Mori Kogoro and Conan slipped into the room by the way, pricking up their ears to look for clues from the eyewitnesses' nonsense while examining the corpse.
The deceased fell not far from the door, a slightly chubby man, dressed in civilian clothes, with very wide eyes, a mouth wide open, a circle of white foam at the corners of his mouth, and he looked very uneasy.
Henggou finally finished talking from the uncle, wiped his sweat and turned his head, wanting to ask Shi Jing Xuanyi what time he left the room.
Who knew that before he found Shijing Xuanyi, he first saw three more people next to the corpse, and the uncle he thought was familiar was muttering in a low voice, "Hmm...... A shot through the brain, a very neat technique. ”
Henggou hurriedly raised his hand to drive them away, "Hey, don't destroy the scene!" And who the hell are you? What do you want to do with me? ”
Mori Kogoro calmly got up, cleared his throat, and squinted over in pose, "I'm just a little detective." ”
"Detective?" This keyword really evoked Henggou's memories, standing in place and thinking for a few seconds, he suddenly remembered, his expression was shocked, "You...... You're the detective who specializes in solving mysteries - Kogoro Mori?! ”
Is it already so famous? Bai Shu was also surprised, obviously feeling that there were not many people dead.
Seeing Maori Kogoro nodding reservedly, Henggou immediately jumped up excitedly and shook hands, "I've read all the cases you solved!" It's a pity that I can only read it in the newspaper, and I haven't had a chance to witness the scene! ”
“…… Hahaha, that's a pity. As soon as Maori Kogoro heard that "it can only be read in the newspaper", his smile stiffened, for fear that this person would let him tell the details of solving the case.
To be honest, many neighbors have already made this request, but the conscience of heaven and earth, even he himself read about the process of solving the case from the newspaper, so what to tell them? Cheeky!
Fortunately, Yokogou was not so disrespectful, his attention was still focused on the current case, but his attitude changed greatly, and he patted Maori Kogoro on the back enthusiastically, "You can check it at will on the spot!" It would be great if you could give us a little valuable advice on the search! ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." , Mori Kogoro breathed a sigh of relief, and he skipped the topic.
Under the gaze of Yokozo, Mori Kogoro put on his gloves and began to search in style.
Search, how can someone who has been a criminal police officer not do it: skillfully digging pockets, checking clothes, and checking wounds...... Hey, what is this circle of white flowers next to the mouth, it looks very suspicious!
He reached out and frothed at the foam, and almost at the same time, a hand reached over and did the same.
Mori Kogoro thought it was Shiraki's hand, so he didn't care, he leaned in and sniffed the powder on his fingertips, roughly judged what it was, and wanted to communicate with the assistant next to him.
Who wanted to turn his head, there was no shadow of the white tree at all, only to see a little broken child also looking at his little hand, and said with a solemn expression, "This is ...... A little dry toothpaste foam. ”
"Well, indeed." , There was a voice of disagreement from the oblique top, and Maori Kogoro looked up to see that his assistant was standing next to him for a long time, and he didn't know where to get a cup of hot tea, and he sipped it with or without a match, looking very leisurely.
"......", a green tendon jumped on the corner of Maori Kogoro's forehead, and he couldn't reach the white tree, so he punched Conan on the head, "Do what you should do!" ”
Caught off guard by the hammer, Conan's eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fell headlong on the corpse, Bai Shu kindly reached out and dragged him, throwing him to Xiaolan's lap.
"Dad, you're always going to be stupid like this, Conan!" , Xiaolan squatted down and hugged him, touching the big bag on Conan's head in distress.
They were a little loud, and Yokogou's attention was quickly attracted to him, and he ran closer in a few steps and asked expectantly, "Mr. Maori, have you found anything?" ”
"Hmm...... The deceased's wallet is gone, and the room is so messy, it must be a burglary and murder. Maori Kogoro actually doesn't have a clue, so he can only pick the most conspicuous clues first, and his thoughts are scattered, "The deceased fell by the door, probably because he heard someone knocking on the door, so he went to open the door, and then was shot by the murderer in a daze." ”
Henggou listened to the beginning, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, obviously this is not a brainless fan, he is very sensible, frowning and retorting, "But Mr. Maori, this really doesn't look like a robbery and murder, if you want me to say, it looks like he was killed by a roommate who lives in the same room." ”
Although the name of the person was not mentioned, it was no different from directly saying that Shijing Xuanyi was the murderer.
Shi Jing Xuanyi was shocked by the officer's intuition, but his mouth was still very hard, "You are framing, didn't the witnesses say that the gunshot rang out at eight o'clock, but I was already at the scene of the first festival in the world at that time, and I met Mr. Maori and them there!" ”
Maori Kogoro's reasoning just now surprised Shikei Xuanyi, and he instantly had the idea of developing Maori into a teammate - as the saying goes, the enemy's pig teammate is his friend!
So after Shijing Xuanyi finished his defense, he deliberately turned to Maori Kogoro to confirm, "That's right! ”
"Of course not!" Before Maori Kogoro nodded, Shiraki quickly interjected, trying to save his respect, "We obviously met you near the end of the festival, and it was already past eight o'clock by then. ”
"......", he actually jumped out and refuted, this young man is not as easy to fool as he seems.
Fortunately, I still have a back hand.
Shi Jingxuan raised the camera in his hand and said with a confident smile, "Anyway, I was already on the scene at the beginning of the festival, if you don't believe it, take the negatives in this to wash, the photos can prove my innocence." ”
Henggou sighed, he was very upright, he was not afraid of admitting the murderer being complained by Shijing Xuanyi, nor preventing him from whitewashing himself, all he wanted was evidence.
Henggou took the camera, and brought a small police officer over and handed the camera to him, "Take it and wash it immediately." ”
The officer was ordered to run out.
The search at the scene has been going on for some time, and the progress has stalled for a while before the negatives are developed.
Conan took the opportunity to run around, one moment on the sink and flipped over, and the other time pinched his nose to dig out the garbage can, when he ran to the toilet and tried to open the back lid of the toilet, Bai Shu couldn't stand it anymore, and pressed the ceramic lid down, "What are you doing." ”
"The toothbrush is gone." , Conan lifted it twice, didn't lift it, and gave up, and it is indeed unlikely that there will be a toothbrush here, he simply wants to try his luck.
Conan withdrew his hand and explained his thoughts, "The deceased still has toothpaste foam on his mouth, he must have been brushing his teeth at the time, but the toothbrush is missing, I think this may be a starting point." ”
