Conan: Money Talks

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? I said that lady is probably the murderer!" Gong Benhan glared at him.

"Huh? Madam came in with us, how could she have time to kill someone?" Hattori Heiji looked unconvinced.

Miyamoto Han shook his head. He wanted to remind Hattori Heiji, but his comprehension was too poor. It seemed that he was destined to lose to Conan this time. As for him, he had never taken him seriously.

About ten minutes after Xiaolan called the police, Inspector Megure and others arrived at the scene.

When Inspector Megure saw Maori Kogoro and Miyamoto Han at the scene, his face fell.

Why are there these two people every time there is a murder?

"Brother Maori, and brother Miyamoto? Why are you here?"

"Inspector Megure, we are here to investigate some things on behalf of Mrs. Koue." Maori Kogoro said first.

Miyamoto Han did not ignore Inspector Megure this time, but just nodded to him.

"By the way, who is this young man?"

Inspector Megure looked Hattori Heiji up and down.

Maori Kogoro answered first:"Inspector Megure, this is a high school detective. He said he was from Osaka and his name is Hattori Heiji."

Inspector Megure's eyes suddenly lit up.

"So you are the high school detective Hattori Heiji!"

Hattori Heiji said proudly:"Yes, it's me."

Maori Kogoro was puzzled, is this person very famous?

"Brother Maori, he is the son of Hattori Heizo, the chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters! Maori

Kogoro was a little shocked. He didn't expect that this rude boy was actually the son of the chief?

Hattori Heiji started to show off again.

"All the doors and windows in this room have been closed. The only passage is that door, and only Mr. Tatsumura and his wife have the key to the door. But Ms. Kimie returned to the scene with us, so it is impossible for her to commit the crime. So this is a perfect closed-room murder case!"

Inspector Megure was stunned by Hattori Heiji's reasoning, and he had to nod repeatedly.

Maori Kogoro scratched his head and said,"But this could also be a suicide case!

" Hattori Heiji said speechlessly,"Don't you understand yet? Look at this body!

The lips and the tips of the hands and feet of the deceased have begun to turn purple, and there are bleeding spots on the conjunctiva.

These are all evidence of death by suffocation!

But there is no sign of strangulation or drowning here!

Therefore, the most likely possibility is that the murderer poisoned the deceased to paralyze his nerves, and the poison used was a highly lethal poison!

In addition, judging from the body temperature of the deceased and the fact that there was no sign of rigor mortis or death spots on his body, he must have been poisoned by the murderer within 30 minutes before we entered the study, and the murderer was near this house!

"

Hattori Heiji's reasoning made Maori Kogoro sweat profusely and feel inferior to him.

Hattori Heiji also glanced at Miyamoto Han with pride.

""Miyamoto Han, my reasoning is correct, right?"

Miyamoto Han smiled and gave him a thumbs up. Hattori Heiji twitched his lips. What kind of reaction was this? Encouraging a kid?

Of course, after many observations, Hattori Heiji still came to some conclusions: the unreliable Uncle Maori in front of him actually did not have any real talents or skills. It was probably Miyamoto Han or Kudo Shinichi who helped him secretly!

The little brat Conan seemed to have a serious cold. He kept blowing his nose, and I don’t know if he paid attention to the situation here.

Hattori Heiji continued:"The time of the crime was about 3:30 to 4 o'clock. Now we must investigate as soon as possible to find the alibi of the person who might have committed the crime during this period! This is the most important thing!"

Inspector Megure was so angry that he kept saying yes.

After questioning, they came up with the alibis of the following people.

The housekeeper, Mr. Koike, said that he had been at the gate between 3 and 4 pm, chatting with nearby neighbors.

Takayoshi Tatsumura and Yukiko Katsuragi also arrived shortly before Mrs. Tatsumura returned home.

According to Takayoshi Tatsumura's testimony, he had knocked on the door of the study before, but no one answered, so he had to let it go.

And the old man Tatsumura Toshimitsu came to the house after 2 o'clock.

According to his testimony, when he knocked on his son's door, no one answered, so he was bored and had to go to the study. They were watching TV in the living room with a wall.

And Tatsumura Kimie left the house at around 1 pm, and later followed them back home.

At this time, Hattori Heiji showed a confident smile that saw through everything.

In addition to Mr. Koike and Ms. Tatsumura Kimie, one of the remaining three is the murderer.

And when searching for evidence, they found tape in the middle of the key ring in the pocket of the deceased Tatsumura Isao, and there was a small gap in the middle of the tape.

Conan, this little brat, actually wanted to show off and wandered around the crime scene.

Miyamoto Han couldn't stand it anymore, and directly gave Conan an acupuncture needle on his neck, and Conan fell asleep.

"Xiaolan, I'll take Conan to the next room to rest! This kid is really worrying!"

Miyamoto Han picked up Conan, he didn't want Xiaolan to hold him.

""What's wrong with Conan?"

Xiaolan clenched her fists, her face full of worry.

Miyamoto Han pinched Xiaolan's nose,"Don't worry, this little guy just fell asleep. Now I'll take him to the guest room to rest, you just keep an eye on him in the guest room."

He carried Conan to the guest room next door, and Xiaolan followed him out.

Hattori Heiji at the crime scene was not happy. What on earth were these guys doing? They didn't solve the case properly. Didn't Miyamoto Han care that he lost to him?

Forget it, in that case, he wouldn't be polite. Now Hattori Heiji has almost glimpsed the truth of the case.

Soon, Hattori Heiji discovered the function of the mysterious gap in the middle of the key ring.

He looked around and found that the gap in the study door was just big enough for a key ring to pass through.

Now, all that's left is to find the line that can prove the murderer.

Hattori Heiji smiled confidently.

By the way, when we went upstairs, the old man said that he caught a big fish today. Fishing?

Fishing line?

Fishing line!

Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up!

The physical evidence that can prove the murderer is the fishing line!

He hurriedly asked the housekeeper about the location of the Japanese-style room. The old man just told his wife to find him in the Japanese-style room after the matter was over. The fishing line must be in the Japanese-style room!

Hattori is now on fire, and he can't wait to find the truth of the matter.
