The sixth man of Conan's police academy

Chapter 217 A Careful Murderer

Squatting in front of the corpse, Sasashima Ritsu began to examine the victim's cause of death.

He took out a mask and handed it to Kudo Shinichi, who kept rubbing his nose. The smell of corpses was quite unpleasant. It was probably the first time for this boy to come into contact with a corpse that had been dead for a long time.

"Put it on."

"Thanks."

Ritsu Sasashima squatted behind the deceased and began to observe the clothes of the deceased.The top was a lemon yellow Pikachu T-shirt, and there were two things that made him feel incongruous.

The first point is that the clothes of the deceased obviously did not fit the figure of the deceased, and were at least two sizes too big.The second point is that there is a small amount of blood on the back, but the clothes are intact, which is contrary to common sense.

He used the small scissors from the forensics class to cut some fabric on the victim's back. When he saw the shocking wound, he couldn't help but be startled. He had previously thought it would be a knife wound, but he never expected it to be a gunshot wound.

"Kudo, check if there are any wounds on your chest."

"Ok."

Since the deceased was in a state of rigor mortis and it was difficult to force it open, Kudo Shinichi had to lean down as much as possible. After cutting the cloth, he saw a penetrating gunshot wound on the chest. He quickly said: "Yes, still Gunshot wound."

"How many shots?"

"Two shots."

That's right.

He is very familiar with firearms. Sasashima Ritsu conceived in his mind the state of the murderer when he committed the crime, and the height of the murderer can be deduced from the positions of the wounds on both sides.

"The murderer's height is between 175 cm and 180 cm." Ritsu Sasashima stood up and checked the trunk. Except for blood stains, he found no bullet holes or signs of struggle. He frowned and said: "It seems that this is not the first place. At the crime scene, the murderer just dumped the victim's body in the trunk of the car... It seems that the owner of the car is probably the victim himself."

"It's very risky to commit a murder in a residential area, let alone shooting a gun. I think the location of the murder is likely to be a relatively remote suburb." Kudo Shinichi inspected other traces on the body, and he couldn't help saying: "The police department, the victim's There were a lot of injuries on her arms from the struggle, and it seemed like she had resisted violently."

If she had put up a violent resistance, she would have had the murderer's human tissue in her fingernails!
Ritsu Sasashima quickly came to Kudo and squatted down. He looked at the fingernails of the victim Yoshitaka Yoshiko, only to find that all the fingernails on the ten fingers of her hand had been removed. This method can be said to be quite cruel, but he could tell the difference. It’s not the injuries that occurred during life, but the injuries after death.

The murderer obviously wanted to hide his own human tissue that might be left in the cracks of his fingernails. I didn't expect that his anti-reconnaissance capabilities were quite good.Ritsu Sasashima stared at the victim who had his head shaved. This must have been the reason why his hair was shaved off. He was truly a cunning and cautious murderer.

Kudo Shinichi didn't expect the murderer to be so cautious. It seemed to be difficult to successfully catch the murderer and bring him to justice. He scratched the area behind his ears and got into trouble.

During the period from childhood to adulthood, the only case he solved entirely on his own was the Valentine's Day murder case a few months ago.And it was only because I had witnessed some small details at the scene that I was able to successfully detect it. Otherwise... maybe the Onizawa Police Department officer in front of me would not have arrived as quickly.

He had relatively little experience in handling cases. Thinking of the cases he had successfully solved with his father's tips when he was in junior high school, Kudo Shinichi was hesitant to call his father for advice.

At this moment, the mobile phone made a sound.Sasashima Ritsu looked down and saw that it was a call from Takagi Wataru. It seemed that there was a new discovery in the investigation.

"Hey, this is Onizawa."

"Police Department! I have checked the surveillance video of the victim's workplace. The deceased left the factory at 22:22 last night, so she should have been killed after [-]:[-]!"

After hearing Takagi Wataru's report, Sasashima Ritsu already had the answer in his mind. It seemed that his reasoning on the time of death was correct. Next, it was time to see if Hayasaka had any new gains.

"Okay, come back."

"Yes!"

Just after hanging up the phone, I heard the sound of heels hitting the ground.

"Police department! I have questioned all the residents in this apartment and found two suspects." Hayasaka Yuna hurried to Onizawa Takashi, panting slightly to report.

Two suspects?Ritsu Sasashima asked with great interest: "Tell me about it."

"The No. 1 suspect is Yuki Eguchi, who lives in Room 301. She is 30 years old and is a woman who lives alone and works in a restaurant. She looked flustered when she provided her alibi, and she obviously had something to hide."

Hayasaka Yuna flipped the page and continued reporting: "Suspect No. 2 is Taito Fukunaga, a man who lives alone in Room 401. He is 25 years old and works in a fishing tackle shop. He was sleeping in the house before and did not know that a case was happening downstairs. After learning that I was a police officer, he looked obviously uncomfortable and could not provide an alibi, as if he wanted me to leave quickly."

Kudo Shinichi grabbed what Onizawa Takashi wanted to say and asked first: "What are the heights of these two suspects?"

"Eguchi Yuuki is taller than me, he should be between 173cm and 176cm." Hayasaka Yuna stepped forward and gestured to the heights of herself and Onizawa, and said slowly: "Fukunaga should be around 180cm."

Hearing that the heights of the two suspects were in line with his own reasoning, Sasashima Ritsu pushed his glasses and smiled and said: "It seems that I have to meet these two people, hey, detective boy, I want to go up with me to meet the suspects for a while." ?"

"Of course!"

Hayasaka Yuna was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully: "What about me?"

Ritsu Sasashima pursed his lips, motioning Hayasaka to look at the group of onlookers standing outside the warning line, and asked: "Please help evacuate the onlookers and protect the scene from being destroyed."

"..."

Hayasaka Yuna looked at the backs of the two people going upstairs, her eyes full of resentment. She left the errands to herself. I was the one who found the suspect, okay?Really pissed off.

She walked towards the police line with a cold face and scolded: "Are you still here watching because you want the murderer to remember your faces and go back to take revenge one by one? Irrelevant people should leave here as soon as possible and don't hinder the police's handling of the case!"

Both of them could hear Hayasaka's voice when they reached the third floor. Kudo Shinichi asked curiously: "I didn't expect the policewoman to be quite intimidating. Have you ever been beaten as her boss?"

What kind of weird logic is this?Ritsu Sasashima thought of Mao Lilan, who had good hand muscle lines. He had changed a lot of Jeet Kune Do habits and strengthened his karate training this year, so it was obvious that she was also a member of the same group.

He raised his lips slightly and teased: "Have you ever been beaten by your little girlfriend?"

Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but blush when he heard this title. He stammered: "She's not my girlfriend... She's just a childhood sweetheart with a very good relationship. I don't like her!"

He also said that he didn't like it, and the corners of his mouth were raised when he heard his own words.Young man, it is impossible to hide liking someone.

"Oh, future girlfriend, right?"

Sasashima Ritsu quite likes to tease these underage boys and girls who are young and youthful. It seems that when I was in junior high school, I didn't have such a sweet and sour experience, so I was a little envious and yearning.

"I'm so long-winded. Mr. Police Department, can you please handle the case seriously? Don't always focus on such inconsequential things. I'll ring the doorbell?" Kudo Shinichi couldn't resist, he said in a panic.

"Oh, press it."

Kudo Shinichi stared with half-moon eyes, what's going on with this man?How do you manage to smile mischievously and make fun of people one second, and then stop smiling and show a serious expression the next?None of the Variety Monsters in Pokémon are so changeable.

He stretched out his index finger to ring the doorbell, and soon a woman's angry response came from inside.

"coming!"
