Conan's first love is a profiler

Chapter 44 Synchronization

The window is open.

Obviously there are other ways to enter the room, since it was not captured by surveillance.
Qinghai Chuantang looked around the window, but found no footprints or anything like that.

On the left is a cabinet with two boxes on it.

The boxes are not close together, there is a gap in the middle, which seems to cover something.

Qinghai Chuantang pushed the box away and saw a sticker on the wall saying: In case of fire, please destroy the wall.

After tapping the wall a few times, the voice sounded a little wrong, a little empty.

"Difficult to say!"

Mu Mu Shisan showed a surprised expression.

The door of the cabinet was opened, and the inside was full of large and small cardboard boxes.

When the box was removed, a whole piece of cloth was exposed, and it was nailed to the wall, like a curtain, used to cover up something.

When the cloth was lifted, a big hole was revealed, which seemed to lead to a certain place.

"Chuanxi, please contact the forensics department!" Mu Mu Shisan hurriedly shouted.

Opposite, is a model room, many people come.There are all kinds of fingerprints everywhere, maybe the prisoner took a fancy to this.

Investigate and monitor, conduct a visit to the people who enter and exit the model room, and maybe you will find something.

At the same time, it is also necessary to confirm the alibi of the other party, and then conduct investigations one by one.

One of them caught their attention.

With a hat on his head, a mask on his face, and a suitcase in his hand, it really doesn't look like he's coming to see a house.

"Megure Police Department, can you apply for a residential search warrant to search Mr. Hitoshi's home? Maybe you can find that suitcase in it."

Mu Mo Shisan hesitated for a moment, "Miss Tang, are you suspicious of that old couple? But..."

"Ten years ago, both of them were in their 60s. Now they are in their 70s. If you want to subdue a strong adult man in his 20s, it may be difficult."

Qinghai Chuantang shook his head.

"You can't say that, my grandma still has the strength to beat me over 80."

Mu Mu Shisan was silent for a while, perhaps thinking about something.

In the end, he nodded and agreed to the other party's proposal.

Evil is hidden in the ordinary.

Sometimes cruel people may have an angelic face.

After the residence search warrant was applied for, Kawanishi Mugui and Takagi went to the home of Hitoshi in Terauchi, and after searching, they found a gray suitcase, which was exactly the same as the one in the surveillance screen.

Of course, this alone cannot confirm that the old man is the murderer, and the suitcase needs to be sent to the forensics department for examination.

Soon after, Qinghai Chuantang received a text message, which contained the current address of Qiuyuan's mother and daughter: Meisen Apartment, No. 143, Quqi Road.

Qinghai Chuantang went to find her.

It was Akimoto Chitsu who opened the door, and when he saw a stranger approaching, his face was full of vigilance.

The door was half-closed, as if it was ready to be closed at any time.

After Qinghai Chuantang explained his intention, Akimoto Chitsu turned around and closed the door without saying a word, but fortunately she stopped him in time.

"Just take a moment, okay?"

Akimoto Chitsu hesitated for a moment, glanced inside the room, then walked out and closed the door.

"Why did you come to me? We live in hiding like this, don't you understand?"

"Sorry, I didn't intend to disturb you. It's just that the case reappeared ten years later. If you want to catch the criminal, you must need the testimony of Miss Zhimei."

"Then you shouldn't have come to us!"

Akimoto Chizu's expression was slightly anxious, "It is because of you that we escaped, don't you understand all this?"

After finishing speaking, Akimoto Chitsu turned around to go in, but was held back by Qinghai Chuantang.

"At that time, someone went to the ward, right?"

Akimoto Chitsu paused for a moment, then slowly turned to look at her, with tears in his eyes.

"I know, so what? Do you know what kind of life my children and I have lived all these years? Do you know?"

Qinghai Chuantang replied: "It is precisely to allow you to live a normal life again that you should catch the prisoner as soon as possible, isn't it? How long is it possible to hide like this all the time?"

"Are you going to hide for the rest of your life? Have you ever thought about having a child? I heard that she seems to have been stimulated by some kind of stimulation. Don't you just want her to live her life in a daze? Don't you want her to live a normal life again?"

Akimoto Chitsu hesitated.

In the end, she nodded and agreed to Qinghai Chuantang's request to meet her daughter.

After entering the room, Akimoto Chitsu knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response.

"Tomoko, is mom coming in?"

Still no response.

Akimoto Chitsu opened the door carefully and motioned for her to come in.

Tomoko Akimoto was sitting on a chair, with a computer in front of him, playing games.

Holding the mouse with one hand and pressing the keyboard with the other, the movements are very skillful, but it feels mechanical.

The back and forth are just those few buttons, which seem to have formed some kind of muscle memory.

Her eyes were fixed on the screen, her face was dull, and she even had heavy dark circles under her eyes, making her look a little old.

Ten years ago, Akimoto Tomoko was 15 years old, and ten years later, Akimoto Tomoko was 25 years old.But it looks like he is 40 years old.

"Akimoto Tomoko?"

"I have a few questions to ask you."

The other party didn't make any response, and was still playing the game mechanically.

Maybe only in this way can I paralyze myself and prevent myself from doing that frightening thing.

"At that time, why did you suddenly disappear?"

Akimoto Tomoko stopped what she was doing, her hands began to tremble.

"Did you see someone?"

Her hands were shaking violently.

"Maybe it's him?" Qinghai Chuantang handed a photo in front of her.

Akimoto Tomoko looked up at her, eyes wide open, trembling all over.

His lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something.

"Go away."

"Go away, go away, go away!"

Akimoto Tomoko seemed to have suddenly gone crazy, repeating this sentence over and over again, then slammed the keyboard and mouse beside her, screaming, calling for her mother.

Akimoto Chitsu immediately stepped forward and hugged her in his arms, and kept comforting her, "Don't be afraid, Tomoko, don't be afraid, mom is here, mom is here."

That terrifying figure suddenly appeared behind the curtain.

I didn't see the appearance of that person, but the black shadow, like a shadow, wrapped around me and couldn't go away.

She remembered that the person said at that time: Even if you are alive, you can't be considered alive.If we meet again, I will definitely kill you.

Fear came over me, so when the mother came again, she said: Let's run, let's run now.

In this way, it took ten years to escape.

"You've seen everything just now. If I move again, I'll be tired too, and I don't have that experience anymore. Please tell them, don't come here again. Maybe it's good to just keep hiding like this for a lifetime. "

"Feel sorry."

Qinghai Chuantang said softly.

Then he took out a brochure from the bag and handed it to the other party.

There are phone numbers of organizations that protect and support victims, so you can get help if you contact them.

"And this." Qinghai Chuantang handed her an envelope, "Take it as your daughter's medical expenses and subsidized living expenses."

After leaving, Qinghai Chuantang contacted Mu Mu Shisan.

Lead the snake out of the hole.

The utility knife case is on hold for now, pending the latest developments.

The next step is to start the investigation of the secret room serial case.

The way the rope is knotted is special, and it should be developed in occupation or living habits.

There was no trace of resistance on the victim. In the drug test results, sleeping pills were found, but no traces of injection were found on the victim.

Then, the criminal is likely to put sleeping pills into the water or food, which is a very common modus operandi.

It was originally a center for the elderly, and the social worker or the person in charge of the residential center in the area to which it belongs is more likely.

Because they usually meet more often, it is easy to gain the trust of the elderly.

A social worker named Tian Daohui has worked here for a long time.Many cases that have happened in the community were discovered by him.

"Thank you very much for coming. The weather has turned cold. There must be a lot of furnaces waiting to be repaired. I need to trouble you."

"Yes, but I will also take time to take care of the elderly."

"Thank you so much. Thanks to you, I can be so relieved. Please come here, the event will start soon."

The man put on a blue vest and walked towards the open door.

Qinghai Chuantang saw his tag clearly: Hideki Oi, volunteer.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Tian Daohui came over, showing an apologetic expression.

"It's fine." After speaking, Qinghai Chuantang asked curiously again: "However, is there any activity today?"

"It's like this," Tian Daohui explained: "Every year, the orphanage invites volunteers to come and present them with thank you cards. Please come with me."

After Tian Daohui made a "please" gesture, he led her to the office area in front.

Back in the department, Tian Daohui was silent for a long time before sighing slowly.

"Five years ago, a grandfather I was in charge of couldn't be contacted for several days, so he came to the door. After all, he is old, and the date of death is like a song without a prelude. sound."

"After I knocked on the door and saw no response, I found the password from the notebook, then unlocked the door and walked in."

"After entering, I saw my grandfather sleeping on the floor with only a thin blanket covering his body. It was already very cold at that time, so I felt a little strange, so I opened it to take a look."

"Unexpectedly, the old man's hands were tied behind his back, and the quilt under him was covered with blood."

Tajima Hui sighed again.

"After the police came, apart from my traces, no other traces of intrusion were found."

"Because of that case, I was once suspected of being a suspect and was investigated by the police. Although I submitted an alibi and cleared myself of the suspicion, there are still various fake news circulating on the Internet."

The place where the secret room murder first appeared was in Yuanrong Road, and the place where it appeared most recently was near Chengchuan Road.

When a serial murderer commits more and more crimes without being discovered, his self-confidence will gradually increase when he continues to commit crimes, and the crime scene will be closer and closer to his residence.

Therefore, the probability of the prisoner living in Seongcheon-do is relatively high.
