Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 424 The famous detective who was targeted! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)
"Damn it! Who is it? Who is the criminal?"

Looking at Kuroiwa Tatsuji who had completely lost his voice, Conan hit the wall with his fist unwillingly. The criminal had committed crimes continuously under his nose, and now two victims had died at his hands. However, he, a high school detective, found nothing and could do nothing, which made him very unwilling.

It's a pity that no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do.

Because, although he really wanted to arrest the murderer, he didn't have any important clues at the moment, let alone find out the murderer's true identity.

While Conan was furious about Kuroiwa Tatsuji's death, Asai Narimi's autopsy results came out, "I think the deceased was brutally murdered a few minutes before the body was found."

Holding the tape of the Moonlight Sonata, Officer Megure pondered for a moment, "Indeed, there is a blank space of about five minutes and thirty seconds at the beginning of this tape!"

There was a blank space of about five minutes at the beginning of the tape, which undoubtedly confirmed from the side that Asai Narimi's autopsy results were correct.

Listening to the conversation between Asai Narimi and Inspector Megure, Conan's face became even uglier.

Is it only a few minutes?

Damn it! If he had found the criminal earlier, or arrived at the studio a little earlier, then Chief Heiyan wouldn't have been killed!

At this moment, the forensic officer nearby suddenly spoke up, "Inspector, we found something strange under the victim's chair."

"what?"

Inspector Megure, Kogoro Mori and others hurried over.

Then the next moment, something under the chair where the victim was sitting came into their sight. It was a piece of music score, a piece of music score drawn in blood!
“It’s sheet music!”

Looking at the music score made of blood, Maori Kogoro and Inspector Megure looked at each other, touched their chins, and guessed: "Could it be that this is a message left by the victim?"

"That's impossible, Uncle Maori."

Hearing this, Bai Ye shook his head decisively, "If the victim had so much time and energy to write these things with his own blood, then he would not have needed to leave these messages and could have gone outside to ask for help. So, if I am not mistaken, this sheet music should have been left behind intentionally by the murderer."

"That's right, this piece of music shouldn't be the victim's last words!"

Conan nodded in agreement.

If I still had the time and energy to write these things, I could have gone outside to ask for help a long time ago. There is no need to spend so much effort writing and drawing on the ground and wasting time!

In other words, this piece of music score must have been left behind intentionally by the murderer.

So, the question is, what is the other party's purpose in doing this?

While writing down the music score in the notebook, Conan frowned and fell into deep thought...

Seeing that a certain little brat not only broke into the crime scene again, but also dared to deny his reasoning in person, Kogoro Mouri's mouth twitched slightly, and then he couldn't help but punch him on the head.

"Oh!"

In order to observe the music score closely, Conan was squatting in front of the bloody music score and copying it. As a result, Kogoro Mouri suddenly hit him. He was completely unprepared and his center of balance was unstable, so he fell forward.

The next moment, he fell directly onto the music score made of blood.

Seeing this scene, not only Conan himself was panicked, but even Kogoro Mouri, Inspector Megure, and the forensic personnel who were holding cameras and taking pictures of the ground were a little dumbfounded.

Maori Kogoro quickly pulled Conan up from the ground, his face full of anger, "Idiot, don't touch the important evidence, damn it!"

It’s over. Could it be that the clue they just found was destroyed by some little brat?
Thinking of this, he carefully looked at the blood-covered music score on the ground. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the music score was safe and sound and not damaged.

"Huh, it's okay!"

However, although everything is fine now, if a certain guy continues to stay here, something else might happen.

And next time, they may not be so lucky.

So, after putting Conan on the ground, Kogoro Mouri immediately pointed at him and ordered him to leave.

"You little brat, you're always making trouble, get out of here now!"

"cut……"

Conan curled his lips, looking unhappy.

However, he also knew that he had indeed caused trouble for the on-site investigation, so, knowing that he was in the wrong, he was too lazy to argue with Kogoro Mouri. If the other party had not made a move, he would not have fallen and almost destroyed the crime scene. Instead, he chose to leave the room obediently.

After all, let’s not talk about it for the time being, he almost destroyed an important clue just now. This is an indisputable fact and he cannot afford to quibble, even if it was because of Mouri Kogoro’s punch that caused him to accidentally fall on the music score.

For example, with Kogoro Mori's character, if he really dared to argue with the other party, then he would definitely not end up well.

A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. Besides, he had already copied down the music score and recorded it in a notebook. There was no need for him to stay in this room any longer and make Kogoro Mori angry.

After all, he is not a masochist!

After driving a certain naughty kid out of the room, Maori Kogoro smiled awkwardly at the Inspector Megure standing beside him and apologized, "Well, I'm sorry, Inspector Megure, Conan is a little naughty!"

Inspector Megure waved his hand generously, not arguing with a child, "Brother Maori, it's okay, the sheet music isn't damaged anyway, so don't blame Conan!"

Not to mention that Conan is just a child, it would not sound good for an adult to argue with a child who is still in elementary school.

For example, in the previous cases, Conan provided the police with a lot of important clues and ideas. Even if he didn't consider anything else, just because of this friendship, he couldn't bear to argue with Conan!

Moreover, the next work will still require the help of Kogoro Mouri and others. If there is an unpleasantness with the other party because of Conan, it will undoubtedly affect the speed of solving the case.

Not to mention, this time, the sheet music was intact, and the police had already taken photos of it. Since the important clues were not destroyed, why bother to cause unpleasantness with Maori Kogoro and others!

Maori Kogoro nodded, "Okay then!"

Inspector Megure and others are not angry, so why should he be angry?

Well, he was still angry.

Especially when he thought about a certain little brat who barged into the crime scene and almost destroyed important evidence, and even dared to reject his reasoning and slap him in the face!
Thinking of this, Kogoro Maori gritted his teeth, and a malicious light flashed in his eyes.

Bai Ye was fine, after all, he was a famous detective of the same level as Maori Kogoro. He had nothing to say when the other party expressed a different opinion.

But a certain little brat, who was just a naughty kid in elementary school, actually dared to reject his reasoning to his face!
Well, he has decided that if he gets the chance, he will definitely teach that little brat a lesson and let him know how miserable the fate of Kogoro Mouri, who ran around and bumped into the crime scene and questioned his reputation as a famous detective, will be!
……

"After the murder, Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata was played. Judging from other methods, I think the murderer of Mr. Kawashima and Mr. Kuroiwa is the same person."

Together with Byakuya, Kogoro Mori and others, they walked out of the room and went downstairs. Inspector Megure told Hirata Kazuaki and others who were still waiting there the results of the police investigation.

"Moreover, judging from the blank time on the tape, Mr. Kuroiwa was murdered several minutes before he was found! That is, around 6:30!"

"That is to say, everyone in this community center at that time is a suspect!"

"As for these people, in addition to Mr. Mori and his companions, there is Mr. Ken Nishimoto, who was the first to discover the body, Dr. Narimi Asai, who just performed the autopsy for us, Mr. Kazuaki Hirata, the secretary of the murdered Kuroiwa village chief, Ms. Reiko Kuroiwa, the daughter of Kuroiwa village chief, and her fiancé Mr. Shuichi Murasawa, and Mr. Masato Shimizu, the candidate for the village chief election!"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji was killed a few minutes before the body was found, around 6:30, and everyone who was at the village office at that time was a suspect.

First of all, there is Ken Nishimoto, the first discoverer of the body, Kazuaki Hirata, the secretary of the murdered village chief Tatsuji Kuroiwa, the village chief's daughter Reiko Kuroiwa, and Reiko Kuroiwa's fiancé Shuichi Murasawa, the last candidate for village chief Masato Shimizu, and Narimi Asai who helped with the autopsy.

After hearing that she had become a suspect, Kuroiwa Reiko couldn't help herself and said, "Wait a minute, why am I also suspected of being the murderer? You must be kidding!"

"You know, I've been interrogating you guys since about 6:20. I didn't have time to leave! And he's my father. Why would I kill my father? You guys are really weird!"

Kuroiwa Reiko was very angry, and fire was almost spitting out of her beautiful eyes.

It would be fine if it was anyone else, but they actually suspected that she killed her own father. Are these policemen sure there is nothing wrong with their brains?

Moreover, she was being interrogated by the police at the time. How could she have the time to kill someone?

She doesn't know how to clone herself!

Maori Kogoro laughed dryly, "Indeed, it is impossible for you to commit a crime."

Inspector Megure nodded thoughtfully.

Indeed, at that time, Kuroiwa Reiko was being interrogated by him and had no time to commit the crime.

Moreover, he couldn't figure out any motive for Kuroiwa Reiko to kill her father.

In other words, the suspicion of the village chief's daughter, Kuroiwa Reiko, can be temporarily ruled out.

Thinking of this, Inspector Megure turned his gaze to Asai Narimi and others.

Since Kuroiwa Reiko is not a suspect in the murder, the only suspects left are Asai Narimi and others.

Noticing his gaze, before Inspector Megure could further investigate the other suspects, Mao Lilan could not help but speak up and testified for Asai Narimi, "Then Dr. Narimi can't be the murderer, because she has been with us since six o'clock."

When she said this, Mao Lilan paused, looked at Bai Ye and Conan on the side, and asked them to help testify, "Isn't that right, Conan, Bai Ye-kun!"

Conan nodded heavily, "Yeah!"

At that time, Asai Narimi was with them and had no way of killing anyone.

Unless the other party knows how to split himself.

Bai Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, trying to prove Asai Narimi's alibi, "That's true, Inspector."

Hearing this, Inspector Megure touched his chin, looked at the remaining four people and said, "So, the suspect is among the remaining four men?"

Since both Kuroiwa Reiko and Asai Narimi have been ruled out as suspects, then, if nothing unexpected happens, the murderer should be among these people.

I just don’t know who it is!

After learning that he had become one of the important suspects, Hirata and Ming stood up in a panic and tried to explain themselves, "Officer Megure, I have been staying on this floor since around six o'clock!"

Officer Megure looked at him calmly and asked, "Do you have any witnesses?"

There are so many people staying on this floor. You can't just let anyone come and say they have been staying on this floor all the time and expect him to believe it, right?

There must be witnesses who can prove this.

As soon as these words came out, Hirata Kazuaki quickly turned around and asked for help from others, trying to get them to testify for him, "You should all know this, right? I was here at that time!"

Looking up at him, Shimizu Masato stepped forward, but not to help him, but to defend himself, "Sorry, I went to the bathroom around 6:30."

Help Hirata Kazuaki clear himself of murder suspicion?
Sorry, he can't help with this.

After all, he wasn't always with Hirata and Ming, so how could he know if they were doing anything they shouldn't be doing behind his back?

What if Hirata and Akira were the murderers of this murder case, and he provided an alibi for the other party without knowing it, which affected the police's investigation and judgment? Wouldn't he get into some unnecessary trouble then?
What's more, he himself is still deeply involved in this murder case and has not yet cleared himself of suspicion of murder. How can he have the time to care about the life and death of Hirata Kazuaki, the secretary of his former competitor!
Officer Megure thought for a moment, then walked towards Nishimoto Ken, who looked a little strange. "So, what about you, Mr. Nishimoto?"
