"Takagi!"

On the first floor of the East Tower, which has long been cordoned off by the police, Wataru Takagi is standing in front of the only elevator that is still in operation.

"Officer Sato? And Xiaoying? You're finally here......" Seeing the two of them arriving in a hurry, Wataru Takagi finally had a smile on his anxious face.

"Do you know all about the situation?" Kuroba Kaito, who is disguised as Miwako Sato, asked.

"Well, Officer Twilight has already called me to inform me, President Owada, he ......"

"It's not entirely certain yet...... What about elevators? How is it on the 40th floor? Who went up before? ”

"Oh, that Young Master Kenta and Mr. Shi Qizhe have been up before, and they have already registered with me."

"What about the other elevators? Can it be started now? Karasuma asked.

In order to restrain Kidd, only one of the elevators in the East Tower Building remained in operation tonight, and the rest were all shut down.

"I've already contacted the engineer to go to the control room, but it may take a little time to ......," Wataru Takagi replied.

"It seems that we can only wait here for a while......" Black Feather Kaito frowned slightly, and said helplessly.

As for climbing the stairs up?

What are you kidding, it's the fifty-third floor! Half a life is almost gone, so it's better to wait for the elevator honestly......

"Officer Takagi."

Karasuma glanced at the notebook that Wataru Takagi used to register elevator users and asked:

"Do you remember which floor Kenta and Mr. Seki Zhe went to?"

"I remember that Mr. Suki-cheol told me that he was going to the observation room on the 48th floor, and Mr. Kenta went to the president's office on the 53rd floor.

The elevator did stop on these two floors before, and that should be true......"

"Understood."

Nodding his head, Karasuma continued to ask, "Officer Takagi, do you remember which floor the elevator was on when the second wave of fireworks was released?" ”

"A second wave of fireworks? I want to think about it...... Oh! Come to think of it! It's on the 40th floor! ”

"...... on the 40th Floor"

Karasuma Ying's eyes narrowed slightly, and Kuroba Kaito immediately understood what she meant.

"That means that when we noticed President Owada's body in the West Tower, there was no one else on the entire 53rd floor of the East Tower at that time?"

Long before, in order to prevent him, the police had evacuated all the people in the East Tower.

And Kenta and Seki Tetsu, who rushed to the East Tower after the first wave of fireworks, only reached the 40th floor when President Owada was found hanging outside the East Tower during the second wave of fireworks, and they did not have the conditions to commit murder.

Is this suicide?

Or is it "impossible to commit a crime"?

"Ding!"

In contemplation, the elevator finally descended to the first floor.

"Takagi, you continue to stay here, and Xiao Ying and I will go up to check the scene first."

Leaving such a sentence, Kuroba Kaito and Karasuma Ying entered the elevator and pressed the button on the 53rd floor.

The elevator rose slowly, and in the small space, neither of them spoke.

"Ding!"

Time passed quickly, and as the bell rang again, the elevator stopped on the 48th floor.

"Huh? Officer Sato? Why are you here? ”

The elevator door opened, and Shi Qizhe looked at the two of them in surprise.

"Come in first, Mr. Shawa, is President Owada here?" Karasuma asked.

"No, I've just looked everywhere, and he's not here," he replied as he stepped into ......the elevator.

"Is that really the case......

"Sure enough?"

"We saw President Owada before...... I hanged myself outside the balcony of the president's office. ”

"What?! Old, sir, he hanged himself?! ”

Hearing Karasuma Ying's words, the expression on Se Qizhe's face was extremely shocked, and his originally calm and serious expression completely collapsed at this moment.

"How is this possible?! How could he, sir...... Is it because of that? If that's the case, he can come to me to discuss, how can he ......?"

Seki-cheol's expression was very flustered, and he kept muttering a bunch of words that Karasuma Ying and Kuroba Kaito couldn't understand.

"Ding!" The elevator bell rang again, and the 53rd floor arrived.

As much as Karasuma Ying was eager to ask the old butler some questions, it was clear that there was something more important to do now.

"Mr. Shiqi, take us to the president's office first."

"Oh, good, good......"

Under the leadership of the three of them, the three of them walked quickly through the corridor and came to the door of the president's office.

Black Feather Kaito stepped forward to open the door first, but the doorknob didn't move.

"The door is locked?"

He was a little surprised.

Shouldn't that young master Kenta already be in the president's office?

"Wait a minute, I'll open it right away."

Shi Qizhe hurriedly stepped forward, took out a door card from his chest pocket, and pressed it on the doorknob.

"Drip."

There was a crisp sound, and the door opened.

"Sorry, this door requires a key card to lock or unlock......"

Opening the door, the three of them walked straight past the president's office and came to the balcony outside.

"Daddy! Wake up! Father! ”

On the balcony, a long hemp rope was tied to the guardrail, and Kenta Owada was throwing himself on the ground, crying bitterly at a corpse.

"Jian, Master Jiantai, Master Jian, he ...... him"

"Shirty?"

Kenta looked back at Sei Cheol, his eyes red and swollen with tears in his eyes.

"When I first came in, I saw my dad hanging from the balcony, and I put him down as soon as I could, but, but dad he was already ......."

"Calm down!"

Kuroba Kaito shouted loudly as he stepped forward to check on Yamada Ichiro's condition.

"There is still a possibility of survival within ten minutes of normal hanging, he was still in the observation room on the 48th floor during the first wave of fireworks, and there may be time to do CPR for him now, maybe there is a possibility of saving him......"

Saying this, Kuroba Kuaito rolled up his sleeves and immediately started cardiopulmonary resuscitation for Yamada Ichiro.

"Huh? What is it? ”

However, as soon as he pressed it, he felt a hard object on Yamada Ichiro's left chest.

"A cell phone? Xiaoying, you take it first. ”

Taking out Ichiro Owada's mobile phone in his left breast pocket, Kuroba Kaito handed it to Karasuma Ying, and then continued to do CPR.

[Not true!] 】

Taking over the old-fashioned phone, Karasuma Ying immediately frowned.

She remembered Dr. Asa saying that Ichiro Owada had a bad heart and even had a pacemaker.

Such a person would put such a thing as a mobile phone in his left breast pocket closest to his heart?

Although with the advancement of technology, many new mobile phones no longer have an impact on pacemakers, but this is an old mobile phone......

Could it be that the murderer deliberately put it there?

Is this murder?

"Whew...... Whew......"

Just as Karasuma Ying was pondering, Kuroba Kaito, who was short of breath, had already stopped his movements.

"Officer Sato?" Kenta looked at him, the little hope in his eyes gradually extinguished.

"Sorry......"

Avoiding his gaze, Black Feather Kaito said a little gloomily:

"I'm sorry, President Owada...... has passed away. ”
