Chapter 12 Boots that shouldn’t appear

Chapter 12 Boots that shouldn’t appear

Looking in the direction of Karasawa's finger, Officer Megure and others also had expressions of surprise and uncertainty on their faces.

"Wearing boots in the room?"

After seeing the body, Miwako Sato, who is also a woman, wondered: "This is too strange, this is the way to go out."

Yes, there was nothing strange about the corpse in other places, but the boots on the feet were the most inconsistent thing about the deceased.

The black boots basically wrap around the entire calf, with the length just below the knee.

The style is shoelace style, from the instep to the top, the boots have about thirty or forty loops of shoelaces.

In addition to zipper style boots, it is one of the most common boots for women in winter.

People will change their shoes as soon as they return home, but in Neon, if you go to a Japanese-style room with tatami mats, you can't even wear slippers.

But at this moment, the boots he wore when going out appeared on the feet of the deceased in the bedroom. This was too incongruous.

Obviously this is something that is against common sense and should not be in the room.

It is precisely because it appears in places where it should not appear that people unconsciously feel the sense of incongruity.

While Officer Megure, Karasawa and other criminals were thinking about this issue, the forensics department personnel had already preliminary inspected the body and provided some information.

"The time of death was estimated to be around 6 o'clock last night."

"The cause of death was suffocation caused by strangulation on the neck. Judging from the strangulation marks on the neck, the murder weapon should be a very thin rope-like object."

After reporting this information, Forensic Section personnel began collecting evidence throughout the room.

However, due to the clutter in the entire room, it was probably impossible to find the traces left by the prisoner for a while.

Of course, because the string on the balcony was similar to the wound marks on the deceased's neck and there was a possibility of a murder weapon, the clothesline was inevitably removed.

The clothes on the balcony were inevitably partly wet because of the rain yesterday.

And even with such a meticulous evidence-gathering search, the results may not be satisfactory.

Because it has not been determined whether the prisoner actually committed the murder in this room.

After all, the floor from the entrance to the house was clean, and there was no trace of any footprints, but the deceased died in the house wearing boots.

Even if the first discoverer would wipe out some traces when he came to the room, it would be impossible not to have a trace remain.

In other words, although the deceased died in the bedroom with his boots on, it is possible that the prisoner moved the body back to the room after being killed elsewhere.

In other words, the possibility that someone killed the victim and then carried the body back to the room cannot be ruled out.

If this is the case, it will be troublesome. It rained for a while last night, and the external traces may have been destroyed long ago.

After making these preliminary judgments and collecting information about the case, Karasawa began to wait for Mouri Kogoro to bring Kakehi Conan to solve the case.

After all, although he has his own memories of this world and has training experience in the police academy, he is really a newbie if he really wants to solve crimes. At this time, you should learn experience to accelerate your growth, and at the same time make some achievements, deepen your relationship with Conan, the god of death, and work hard to become an important supporting role to save your life.

After all, Karasawa has traveled through time, but there are no plug-ins. He must first follow the guidance of his heart.

But after waiting for a while, Karasawa didn't see Mouri Kogoro and Conan at all.

"I'll go, this shouldn't be the case. The stage for the crime scene has been set up, but the protagonist didn't come. What the hell is this?"

"Officer Megure, something has been discovered!"

Just as Karasawa was thinking wildly, Sato Miwako found a key from the messy table, and there was a key chain on it.

Tangze stepped forward to check and found that inside the key chain, there were photos of the deceased and a man who were very intimate. It seemed that the photo was put into the blank special key chain.

Officer Megure looked at the key chain and said, "The deceased seems to have a boyfriend."

"And this key doesn't appear to be a spare key to the room."

Tangze found the room key to the Forensic Section staff and compared it. "The key to this room seems to be a model with excellent anti-theft properties."

Perhaps because she was a woman living alone, the key to the deceased's room had a rectangular front end and irregular small holes on both sides. It was a very secure key.

Apart from anything else, most shoe repair places don't have the tools to match this type of key, and most of them just use ordinary keys.

"So it's possible that it's a relationship dispute, so now we'll start investigating the testimonies of the people around us, and let the forensics department step up their efforts to find the identity of the man on the key chain!"

Officer Megure looked at Tangze and the two and said: "We are still not sure where the crime scene is, so we need to investigate in both directions and don't let go of any clues!

Manpower is a bit tight now, so it's up to you two to work hard. Sato, please take more care of Karasawa-kun. After all, he just came to the Criminal Division not long ago. "

"Don't worry, Officer Megure." Sato Miwako said with a smile: "And Karasawa-kun's performance before was very good."

"Oh, that's right." Apparently Officer Megure also remembered Tangze's expression before, and couldn't help but expectantly said: "Kangze, you have to work hard this time too!"

"Hey, don't worry, Officer Megure!" Tang Ze looked full of enthusiasm on the outside, but he was smiling bitterly on the inside.

Before, it was because he knew the plot was a gimmick, but now he has no impression of this case at all. Even Mouri Kogoro and Conan didn't show up, which made Karasawa doubt that this was a case outside of anime.

After all, this is a real world, and it is naturally impossible to revolve around the protagonist. It is normal for other cases to occur outside of the original plot, otherwise there would not be various reforms.

With this horrific frequency of crimes, not only has the police system changed, but detectives have also become a very common profession, and their social status is much better than in previous lives. Even famous detectives will be sought after by the world.

Of course, this is only superficial. More detectives still make a living by catching mistresses, but this is still a much better situation than in the previous life.

However, after Tangze confirmed that the "washing machine" would not come, although he was a little unsure, when he really needed to be responsible for the case, the slight panic in his heart was quickly filled with motivation.

After all, in his previous life, he could only rely on novels, movies and TV shows to enjoy himself, but now he can participate in it personally, and he doesn't want to just be a tool.

Let this case test how far you can go!
