Conan: I'm Not a Ghost

Conan got out from under the table.

He covered his mouth, pointed under the table, and shook his head wildly.

Sakaki raised his eyebrows and bent down to lift the tablecloth to see what was inside.

"Mr. Sakaki Makoto!"

Sato Miwako stepped forward to stop her with a pale face:

"It's better not to look at the bottom."

“Nothing special”

But the more she said this, the more Sakaki wanted to see it.

Suddenly lifting the tablecloth, Toyokawa Forensic Doctor and Sato Miwako's expressions changed slightly, and they took a few steps back at the same time, and then turned around.

A strong smell like sour vinegar + canned herring that has been aged for decades wafted over.

There is an iron bucket under the table.

Inside the barrel.

It was all yellow vomit, which had been somewhat condensed because it had been there for so long.

Damn it! ! !

Sakaki's face turned green at that moment.

His current mood was as complicated as when he saw a cow running on two legs on the street.

But he is a professional.

Fighting the urge to gag, Sakaki held his breath and quickly checked under the table.

Except for an iron bucket, there was no other strange thing.

At this moment, several little heads suddenly came in from under his armpits:

"Mr. Sakaki Makoto?"

"What are you looking at?"

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and

Takagi Wataru's curious face.

It was so sudden that Sakaki had no time to stop him.

They saw the iron barrel and smelled it

Then

"vomit!!!"

One and three children rushed out of the room, holding on to the railing and vomiting loudly.

Sakaki covered the tablecloth with a very ugly look on his face.

Half of it was caused by being smoked, and the other half was because of Takagi Wataru.

Didn't you send them home? !

How come it appears here?

Glancing at Conan who was wiping his mouth, the two began to communicate in Morse code with their eyelids.

Sakaki Makoto: You go and deal with them.

CONAN: No, I can't handle it.

Sakaki: What do I need from you?

Conan was anxious: If you can, go ahead!

At this time, Takagi Wataru led the three people back, lowering his head and not daring to look into Sakaki's eyes.

On the contrary, it was Mitsuhiko who put his hands on his hips and said in an old-fashioned tone:

"Mr. Sakaki, how can you think of leaving us?"

"Although we are children, we will definitely not cause you any trouble!"

You are already causing trouble for me now.

Sakaki breathed a sigh of relief and showed a gentle smile:

"In this case, can I treat you to parfait?"

"Officer Takagi, please take them to eat parfait and come back to me to pay the bill."

Whether to eat or not is one thing, but whether to pay for it or not is another matter.

In short, let’s get rid of these people first.

Mitsuhiko shouted: "No!"

Ayumi looked surprised: "Is it okay?"

Genta touched his belly: "I want to eat eel rice!"

"."

Mitsuhiko took the two of them to a corner and said a few words. After reaching a consensus, he came back with his chest raised and his head raised:

"We're not going!"

Depend on!

Sakaki was at his wits end, he was worst at dealing with children.

"Well."

Mumu Shisan stepped forward to smooth things over:

"Let them stay. Anyway, these three are not enough."

Conan's face darkened, and in his mind ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past.

They have come, and it is impossible to drive them away.

Looking at the troubled look on Takagi Shita's face, it was clear that he was at his wits' end.

Sakaki shook his head and said:

"Don't run around."

"Don't mess with anything on site."

"yes!"

Ayumi and the other three agreed wholeheartedly, then turned around and began to "investigate" in the room.

"Brother Sakaki Makoto."

Mumu Shisan looked at it for a long time and asked:

"Do you have any clues?"

"No."

Sakaki frowned and thought. Judging from the situation at the scene, there was no doubt that this was a deliberate homicide.

According to the forensics department's on-site inspection report, the prisoner did not leave any fingerprints at all.

Moreover, the method used by the other party is exactly the same as that of a certain movie.

If he guessed correctly

There must be clues left by the prisoner in this room!

He looked around the room.

Remaining food, fallen wine bottles, refrigerators, TVs, beds, wardrobes, plastic bags on the floor.

Wait a moment!

Sakaki walked quickly to the plastic bag in the corner and looked down.

711. The whole family.

There are only two types of plastic bags that carry logos.

"Mr. Sakaki, is there something wrong with this plastic bag?"

Seeing Sakaki Makoto squatting in front of a pile of plastic bags, Miwako Sato couldn't help but ask.

"Of course."

Sakaki sneered:

"And it's a big problem!"

He straightened up and said to the thirteen people in front of him:

"The deceased consumed a large amount of food during his lifetime."

"Have you ever thought about where the murderer purchased such a large amount of food?"

Sakaki's words made everyone excited.

yes!

Of course it was impossible for the murderer to cook for the deceased himself.

It was even less possible for him to leave the room during the murder, otherwise the deceased would have definitely escaped and called the police.

The only possibility is that he purchased a large amount of food before committing the murder.

The amount of food that can be sustained for 12 consecutive hours must be extremely huge.

Judging from the food left on the table, it was all cooked food. Naturally, it couldn't be vegetables bought from the market.

If you order takeout, it's too dangerous, and the store clerk will come to collect the plates.

The answer is already obvious.

The criminal must have bought the food from a convenience store!

The mark on the plastic bag on the ground is the best evidence.

"Takagi!!!"

The case has made progress, and Megure Jusan is very excited:

"Quickly investigate the convenience stores nearby!"

"Wait a minute!"

Sakaki Makoto called out to Megure Jusan.

Takagi Wataru, who was about to rush out the door, paused and looked over in confusion:

"Any other questions?"

Sakaki Makoto glanced at Conan who was in deep thought, smiled and said:

"These foods are likely to be purchased by the other party elsewhere."

"Because buying a large amount of food will definitely leave a very deep impression on the store clerk."

"Since the criminal did not leave any fingerprints or other evidence."

"It is impossible that he is so stupid that he did not even think of this."

"He is very likely to drive a car and make separate purchases in multiple convenience stores."

Sakaki Makoto pointed to the plastic bag on the ground:

"There are not only bags from 711 convenience stores, but also bags from FamilyMart convenience stores."

"It can be said that the criminal has been in and out of multiple convenience stores."

"But he overlooked one point."

Everyone's heart gradually lifted up, and they dared not breathe.

"Convenience stores have surveillance videos."

Conan suddenly took up the second half of Sakaki Makoto's sentence, and he raised his head with a smile:

"Right, big brother Sakaki Makoto?"

Good boy, he is really quick-witted.

Makoto Sakaki nodded and smiled:

"Yes."

"All convenience stores will be equipped with surveillance cameras."

"As long as we check the surveillance videos of each convenience store one by one, it will not be difficult to find the traces of the criminal."

Megure Jusan and the others looked at each other, feeling helpless:

"But."

"There are so many convenience stores in Tokyo."

"How can we check them all?"

This is a problem.

Makoto Sakaki looked at the corpse and sighed in his heart.

After all

Do we still need to use profiling?
