The police quickly arrived at the museum. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the command of Officer Twilight, the officers began to carefully search the scene of the crime.
"So, who was the first discoverer of the corpse?" Officer Twilight begins the investigation.
"It's me, Officer Twilight." Mori Kogoro stood up directly and took the credit for the discovery of the body on his own head.
Officer Twilight's face turned strange, "Why are you again?" Why are you on the scene every time there is a homicide? If it weren't for the fact that you have an alibi every time, I even suspect that you are a perverted serial murderer. ā
Mori Kogoro was embarrassed, "Officer Twilight, I think this situation shows that I have a keen sense of solving crimes, and I can always detect homicides at the first time." ā
When Officer Twilight questioned him, the director of the museum, Mr. Ochiai, his assistants, Mr. Iijima, and Mr. Kuroda were all taken to the scene of the crime.
"Reporting to the officer, we have already surmised from the stiffness of the body that the time when the deceased was killed should have been around 4 p.m. The deceased had been slashed in the chest with a murder weapon and the cause of death was a puncture in the throat. ā
Officer Twilight nodded, and then asked everyone to come forward and identify the deceased.
Since the deceased had been nailed to the wall with a Western sword and his head hung down, the identity of the deceased was not discovered. At this time, the deceased was laid flat on the ground, and everyone recognized him as the boss of Manaka that they had met in the art museum earlier.
Officer Twilight dragged his chin with his hand, "In other words, it is possible that the murderer knew in advance that the deceased was here, so he carried out the premeditated murder." And deliberately on the opposite side of this "Heavenly Damnation", the boss of Manaka was brutally killed. ā
Xiaolan said suddenly: "Officer, in the passage in front of this exhibition hall, at the beginning, a sign was placed that 'no one who is not from the museum, no entry'. I wondered, is it possible that the murderer was someone from the museum? ā
"Well, this clue is very important, and I don't rule out the possibility that Xiaolan said it."
Conan suddenly pointed to the position above the exhibition hall, "Look, there is a camera there, which should be used to monitor the situation in the exhibition hall." Moreover, the direction it is facing is exactly where the epicenter boss was killed. ā
Officer Twilight immediately asked, "Director Ochiai, is this camera working properly this afternoon?" ā
Director Ochiai nodded, "The monitoring equipment in the exhibition hall is running every day, so there shouldn't be any problems." Officer, please go to the surveillance room with the old man to check the video recording. ā
Everyone followed Director Ochiai to the monitoring room, and Iijima played the monitored footage.
In the picture, Boss Manaka walked into the exhibition hall alone.
He kept looking left and right, and every now and then he looked at his watch, as if he was waiting for someone.
As he restlessly walked up to a pair of medieval Western armor, the armor suddenly lifted the Western sword in his hand and slashed at his chest. Although the boss of Manaka tried his best to retreat, he was still slashed by a Western sword.
Immediately afterward, the boss of Manaka began to run in the exhibition hall despite his injuries. Just as he was about to be caught up by the armor, the armor suddenly tripped and fell to the ground. Immediately afterward, the armor took a few steps back and disappeared from the surveillance footage.
The boss of Manaka, who was facing the camera lens, showed a surprised expression on his face, as if he had discovered the identity of the murderer wearing armor. He tried to escape, but perhaps because he was frightened, he struggled several times and couldn't get up.
He looked around a few times, hurriedly ripped a note from the wall behind him to indicate the name of the exhibit, and then picked up the pen on the table next to him and wrote something on it, as if to write the name of the criminal. Suddenly, for some reason, he wanted to throw away the pen and note.
At this moment, the person wearing the armor reappeared in the surveillance footage, and he took a few steps forward, grabbed Boss Manaka, and pressed him against the wall. Then the armor man lifted the sword in his hand and stabbed Boss Manaka's throat hard, pinning him to the wall.
Boss Manaka struggled a few times and died because of a piercing in the throat. The note, which may have recorded the name of the criminal, was clutched in his hand.
The Armored Man then took a few steps back and disappeared from the surveillance footage again.
The entire murder process of the murderer was accurately recorded by the camera.
Officer Twilight immediately orders the officers to take out the note from Boss Manaka's hand.
He muttered: "Judging from the footage recorded in the surveillance footage, since the murderer was able to use the armor to commit crimes, it means that he should be very familiar with the situation in the art museum and can easily access the armor used for camouflage." ā
Zhao Min said suddenly: "By the way, I saw Mr. Kuroda receive the armor into a woven bag before. ā
Mikuda was stunned for a moment, "This, this is what the curator asked me to put away my armor." Both the curator and Iijima knew. ā
Director Ochiai nodded to prove that Kuroda was not lying.
Chen Xu also expressed his opinion, "I also think that the prisoner is from the art museum. As you can see from the footage, the murderer should have killed in armor to prevent his appearance from being caught by the camera.
Moreover, the murderer is very familiar with the surveillance range of the camera, and has always appeared in front of the camera lens with his back. You can see that he can still be seen by the camera on his back before he falls, and as soon as he falls, he disappears from the camera's monitoring range. ā
Conan chimed in: "Big brother is right, the murderer must be someone from the art museum." ā
Since the museum is about to close, there are only two staff members left here, Amida and Iijima, in addition to Director Ochiai.
The murderer is obviously one of them.
"Report to the officer, we took out the note from the deceased's hand." A police officer hands a tattered note to Officer Twilight.
Officer Twilight opened the note and saw that it was written "ēŖŖ" and the first strokes of the word "Tian".
He presented the note in front of everyone, "Mr. Kuroda, do you have anything else to say?" I'll ask you one last time, where were you around four o'clock in the afternoon? Is there anyone, or something, that can provide you with an alibi? ā
"Around 4 o'clock, I was in the office dealing with the things that the curator had explained. I'm the only one in the office...... IāI didn't kill Boss Manaka, and besides, what's the benefit of killing him? I had no reason to kill him. ā
Iijima retorted directly: "Utada, you have a reason to kill Boss Manaka. You've been stealing art from the museum and selling it privately lately because you owe money to the boss of Manaka outside, right? ā
"I, I'm ......" Uta was speechless for a moment.
Maori Kogoro shouted: "Mr. Makida, you don't have to quibble, the person who killed the boss of Manaka is you!" ā
