Chapter 83

"Ah? Where is it!", the editor-in-chief's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look around, wishing to find out immediately.

As long as they can get the manuscript of this issue, not only do they not need to open the skylight, but they can also announce the news of the author's unfortunate death at the end of the article, stir up the topic, and then smooth the transition, and find another famous writer to fill in the gap... This time The manuscript is really critical.

The editor-in-chief and Bai Shu didn't deliberately lower their voices. The police officers of the forensics department not far away looked at each other for a while, and hesitantly turned out an evidence bag, which indeed contained a stack of manuscripts.

The editor-in-chief saw it at a glance, and swished over there like a torpedo. He leaned in front of the bag to take a look, and shed tears of happiness, "Yes, this is the latest manuscript! Tomo Imatake Sure enough, he is a dedicated and good writer! This...can you give this to me?"

The police officers didn't immediately agree. This stack of manuscripts was found in Tomo Imatake's locked suitcase. It may have nothing to do with the case, but it was at the scene of the crime...

Henggou answered a phone call at this time. He asked someone to check the whereabouts of the editor-in-chief, and it turned out that the editor-in-chief was really okay: the surveillance at the door of the editorial office clearly recorded him leaving, and almost as soon as he went out By the time Imatake Tomo was already cold.

This alibi is much more powerful than Shijing Xuanyi's, he should be innocent.

Seeing the editor-in-chief crying so badly, Henggou hesitated for a moment, and said to one of the police officers, "Scan a copy to him, and keep the original."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much!", the editor-in-chief kept pricking his ears, and when he let go, he was afraid that the police would repent, and dragged the police officer who was pointed out to the door. The fat figure seemed to turn into a ball of lightning. Call out and disappear.

During this process, Shijing Xuanyi was still unable to intervene.

He was very anxious, but he also knew in his heart: the editor-in-chief who was anxious to get Zhi Jinzhu's manuscript would not be able to read the work he had prepared slowly, and he lost this opportunity again, and this... all blamed on that damned young man people!
The culprit who gritted his teeth that made Shijingxuan hate him turned around and looked at him.

The four eyes met for a moment, and Bai Shu laughed, "Oh, you also have a manuscript, are you going to submit it? Why didn't you go just now, are you shy? Alas, young people must be aggressive, and they can't be so afraid of hands all the time. Afraid of feet."

"You..." Shi Jingxuan's expression was distorted, he really wanted to punch him in the face.

But rationality reminded him that it would not be of any benefit to him to have a conflict with someone here: if the police detained him under this pretext and found some evidence slowly, it would be a big loss.

So Shi Jingxuan turned his head and vented his anger on Henggou, he said coldly, "Hey, let me go back, I'm very busy!"

"...", Henggou snorted and refused to nod.

Whether it's the motive, the existing clues, or even Shijing Xuanyi's strange behavior, people are very concerned. This person is too suspicious.

...It's a pity that he did have an alibi before finding out the flaws in the photo.

Shijingxuan didn't get a reply, and he was not in the mood to continue the performance, so he turned his head and walked out the door. Henggou became anxious, and grabbed him, saying that he still had something to ask, and the two of them just started arguing at the door.

Conan was also in a hurry, but he didn't lose his sense of proportion. This kind of anxiety only further catalyzed his already fast thinking.

He closed his eyes, and the clues flashed through his mind one by one, connecting them together at an astonishing speed. Finally, after the image of Shi Jingxuan, sweating profusely but insisting on not taking off his coat, emerged in his mind, Conan suddenly realized.

He rushed to the table in a few steps, found the photo with the word "Heaven" in the background, and looked at Shijing Xuanyi's wrist.

……it is as expected!

"Straight..." Turning around, well, the person slipped away as expected.The corners of Conan's eyes twitched, and he had no choice but to raise his sinister sights at Mori Kogoro again.

I'm sorry, Uncle Maori, but Bai Shu should at least recite half of the blame for shooting you with anesthesia needles!

The anesthesia needle flew out, and Mori Kogoro fell down in response.He happened to be standing next to the table looking at the photos at this time, and at this moment he was suddenly paralyzed, fainted backwards, and sat on the chair smoothly.

Conan adjusted his posture and squatted behind the chair. At the same time, he stuffed the rabbit hydrogen balloon that Xiaolan was hanging around his waist under the stool to prevent it from getting in the way.

During this time, the two people at the door had become more and more noisy.

As soon as Shi Jingxuan was stared at by the surrounding policemen, he felt very guilty. After loudly yelling for courage, he subconsciously wanted to find himself a teammate, "Isn't that photo enough to prove that I was at the festival?! Mr. Maori , as a famous detective, you have the position to criticize these incompetent policemen!" Hurry up!cover me!

It's a pity that his teammate is still the same person, but the controller has changed.

Mori Kogoro was propping his head in one hand very aggressively at the moment, his face was slightly lowered, and he was sitting at the table like a thinker. Hearing what Sejing Shinichi said, "he" laughed, "Mr. Henggou, don't put Take the murderer's sophistry to heart."

"...Ah, thank you." Henggou was stunned.Isn't Mori Kogoro from Shijing Xuanyi's side? When did he secretly change his position again?
Bai Shu just came out of the kitchen at this time, seeing this, he patted Henggou's shoulder skillfully, "Mr. Mao Li just wanted to train us, so he deliberately said those wrong reasonings, so that we don't need to rely on him. Use your own brain to think, in fact, he must have seen through the murderer's tricks!"

"...Really?" Henggou rolled his dead fish eyes and stared at him suspiciously. To be honest, neither of this pair of master and apprentice is very reliable, especially this young man who was openly at the scene of the crime just now. He hadn't even had time to take a sip of water when he made a hot drink...

Conan is very good at seizing the opportunity to clean up his crimes, and quickly answered, "Naoki is right, I did know for a long time - the murderer is Mr. Imatake Tomo's roommate, Sejing Nobuichi!"

"According to the eyewitness, after the gunshot, he immediately saw the way the murderer fled. That is to say, the murderer didn't have the opportunity to mess up the room after the murder, but he could arrange the room as the scene of theft in advance. , only you!"

Henggou actually thought so too, but...

He sneaked closer to Mori Kogoro, and lowered his voice, "Mr. Mori, if you don't first figure out how that photo was taken, he does have an alibi."

"This question is actually very simple." Conan did not lower his voice at all, and calmly exposed Sejing Xuanyi's trick, "The photo with the background of the word 'sky' was not taken today, but last year After that, he put the camera away and didn’t take it out until tonight, and let Naoki, whom he met by chance, help him take the photo, and by the way act as his alibi witness.”
