Detective Conan: The Grey Winged Angel

Chapter 544: Snow Girl in the Snow

   February 14th, Saturday, evening, Nagano Prefecture, Mikkacho Ski Resort, Genbei Onsen Guesthouse, Mori’s room.

   After seven o'clock in the evening, the three of Ran, Mei Daizi, and Yuanzi returned from the hot spring. Yamazaki stayed behind to play cards with them. Maori and Conan went to the hot spring. Almost an hour later, Mauri and Conan replaced Yamazaki.

   Around ten o'clock in the evening, the garden yawned, "I can't do it, let's stop here."

   "Then pack up and go to the room to sleep." Maori said.

Lan stood up and stretched out, opened the curtains and looked out, "It's snowing, it's not too small." Then he found a white figure on the mountain road in the distance, and cried out in surprise, "Xue, Snow Girl !"

   "What?" Mei Daizi came to open the curtains, "Where?"

   Yamazaki, Mouri, Conan, and Yuanzi also surrounded.

   "I was on that mountain road just now." Lan said with some fear, "A white figure is moving."

   Maori did not notice, "Did you read it wrong?"

   Conan said, "Is it reflective?"

   "No, I don't know." Lan said, "Maybe."

   "It doesn't matter, I'll go and see." Mei Daizi said. "Brother, you go with me."

   "What?" Yuanzi said, "It's snowing outside, it's so late again."

   Yamazaki smiled and asked, "How about it, do you want to go with us to find the Snow Girl?"

   "I'm not going." Sonoko said.

   "You be careful," Maori said, "Bring the phone."

   Yamazaki said, "No, uncle, we will definitely be back before twelve."...

   More than twenty minutes later, Yamazaki and Mei Daizi came to the mountain path that Lan said.

   "There are footprints here, brother." Mei Daizi said, "Unfortunately, it was covered by snow. I can only tell from the depth that this person does not exceed 100 kilograms at most, and nothing else can be seen."

   "Then chase it." Yamazaki said.

Ten minutes later, Yamazaki and Mei Daizi followed their footsteps to a forest. They found a small area of ​​messy footsteps and a slender breathing around a clearing. Although it was very faint, in this quiet snowy night, Yamazaki and Mei Daizi heard it.

   "This breathing," Mei Daizi said in surprise, "under the ground," and then said with some excitement, "It's really a monster."

   "It's a monster that won't let you hear your breath." Yamazaki smiled, "Help dig it quickly, it's someone buried in the snow."

   "No way?" Mei Daizi asked in surprise.

   After a while, the shallow floating snow was removed, and a woman in a white kimono was dug out, and there was also a bottle of sleeping pills next to her hand.

   "Isn't this the Snow Girl?" Mei Daizi asked.

Yamazaki took out a cotton bag, took out the small charcoal stove inside, opened the lid and lit the charcoal inside, then closed the lid and put it in the bag and handed it to Mei Daizi. At the same time, he smiled and said, "This is definitely not a snow girl. It just wears white. It’s just a kimono."

"No, brother," Mei Daizi smiled, "I mean the snow **** TV, Ms. Akiko Kinoshita." He put the charcoal stove into Akiko Kinoshita's arms, then picked her up and took it. Yamazaki took the sleeping pills and walked back.

   "Oh?" Yamazaki thought for a while, then touched the woman's kimono and asked with a smile, "Then, what do you think is the matter?"

  Mei Daizi said, "Well, this kimono is not soaked yet. If you didn't bring it on, then it was changed."

   "Yes," Yamazaki smiled, "Go on." He shook the sleeping pills in his hand.

   "If you commit suicide by taking medicine, you can't bury yourself by yourself. It's probably because you were put on sleeping pills and buried there." Mei Daizi said.

   "Be careful, if it is a large object such as a wooden board or a stone slab, you can cover it yourself." Yamazaki said.

"I said, I know." Mei Daizi said, and then said, "Generally speaking, the weight of two adults should be more than one hundred kilograms, so that person came here alone. Ms. Akiko had long ago I was put on sleeping pills and buried there.” Then he asked, “Yes, it’s very strange. Sleeping directly in the snow, because the snow is not thick, it’s normal to not be suffocated, but why didn’t you freeze to death? ?"

   Yamazaki smiled and asked, "What did you just do?"

"By the way, it is a hand warmer or a hot water bag. The prisoner used this to protect Ms. Akiko from hypothermia and freeze her to death. Then the prisoner took it away when she came to change the kimono for Ms. Akiko just now." Mei Daizi said.

   "Good." Yamazaki asked, "Why did the prisoner do these things?"

   "This is simple, in order to create an alibi." Mei Daizi laughed.

   Yamazaki said, "Speak clearly."

   "Ms. Akiko should have been buried there in the afternoon, that is, she disappeared in the afternoon. The prisoner should be with Miss Akiko, wait," Mei Daizi asked, "Is the prisoner Yoko Asanuma?"

   "I can only say that there is a lot of suspicion," Yamazaki said.

   "It must be her, she turned out after entering the hotel, and then came in through the front door, playing two roles alone." Mei Daizi said.

   "Didn't Lan say that she saw this lady staying at?" Yamazaki asked, "Miss Yoko's alibi proved very good. Her people have been staying at the hotel.

   "But I didn't see the face." Mei Daizi said, "No one saw Miss Yoko and Miss Akiko being present at the same time."

   "Where is the evidence?" Yamazaki asked.

   "Uh, this," Mei Daizi thought for a while and said, "Yes, by checking the composition of sleeping pills in your body, you can know that Ms. Akiko has been taking it for a long time."

"One or two may be able to be checked out, but Ms. Akiko may be taken half a bottle, which is very difficult." Yamazaki said, "And even if she knows what happened to her in the afternoon, then the person who showed up at the hotel can't say for sure. It's Miss Yoko." Then he said, "Continue on the alibi."

"Okay," Mei Daizi said, "the prisoner did not have an alibi in the afternoon, so Ms. Akiko was not killed. Now with the alibi, Miss Akiko returned to the hotel in the evening, and the prisoner can do it." , "Brother, Miss Yoko looks more like a murderer. We are the only two groups of people in the hotel, not the old couple. Moreover, only Miss Yoko who is with Ms. Akiko needs such an alibi Right."

   "That doesn't work either. Unless it is exposed on the spot, it can only be said to be a strong proof." Yamazaki said.

   "Really, let's talk about it," Mei Daizi said.

   "First of all, it can be determined that this was a murder." Yamazaki said.

   "Of course." Mei Daizi said.

"I can't bury myself in snow, that's right, but if it weren't for us, judging by the current snow conditions, one hour later, she could say that she committed suicide there after taking the medicine. It would be useless to say anything by then." Yamazaki said, "And now we can prove that Ms. Akiko was buried under the snow. This is homicide."

   "That's true." Mei Daizi said, "Well, you continue."

   "When there is an incident, there will naturally be a prisoner." Yamazaki said, "Apart from keeping an eye on Miss Akiko's enemy, the remaining major suspects are..."

   Mei Daizi said, "Miss Yoko Asanuma."

"But if you want to prove that she is the murderer and want to convict Ms. Yoko, only one of the following conditions can be satisfied." Yamazaki said, "First, prove that Ms. Akiko who came back to the hotel was dressed as Ms. Yoko. It's impossible. Second, it is impossible to prove that Miss Yoko is not in the room after ten o'clock in the evening. It is too late now. Third, it is basically impossible to prove that Miss Yoko knows the place where Miss Akiko was buried just now."

   "Then there is no way to catch her now?" Mei Daizi asked.

"I haven't said this before." Yamazaki smiled. "Based on the current situation, in the case of a lawsuit, you just said that "only Yoko who is with Ms. Akiko needs such an alibi" is a breakthrough. , Miss Yoko will lose."

   "What, really." Mei Daizi complained with a smile.

"Actually, there is another one, which is Miss Akiko personally telling who the murderer is." Yamazaki said, "But whether you can wake up depends on Miss Akiko's luck, it's almost eleven o'clock, at least six hours. "

"Oh, by the way, brother, I almost forgot." Mei Daizi changed from holding to carrying, put Miss Akiko on her shoulder, freed her hand to take out a paper bag from her pocket and gave it to Yamazaki, "Here, this year's chocolate ."

Yamazaki opened the paper bag, looked at the thick and palm-sized chocolate, and smiled: "I have brushed my teeth, so let's be half of us. If there are worms, we will grow together." He broke the chocolate into two. half.

   "All right." Mei Daizi smiled and took the chocolate that Yamazaki handed over, and ate with Yamazaki. ...

   About eleven o'clock in the evening, Yuanbingbei Hot Spring Inn

Mei Daiko returned here with Akiko Kinoshita and Yamazaki, and let out to welcome Kitamura Genhei, Maori, Ran, Conan, Sonoko, and Yoko Asanuma and Kayo Kitamura who came after hearing the sound. shock.

   "Uncle, first drive Ms. Akiko to the hospital. She should have taken sleeping pills for a long time. It's not clear if there is an overdose." Yamazaki said, "but only about half of the bottle of sleeping pills is left."

   "Okay, I'll change my clothes." Maori turned and left, and Yuanzi, Lan, and Conan also went.

   Asanuma Yoko said, "I'm going to change clothes too." He said and left.

"Mei Daizi, you go with her." Yamazaki said, and then said, "Boss, please follow us and show us the way to the hospital, madam, please call and tell the hospital that our patients take a lot of sleeping pills. ."...

   Outside Yoko Asanuma's room.

   "What do you want to do?" Yoko Asanuma asked Mei Daiko who wanted to go in.

   "Look at you." Mei Daizi said, "You are the important criminal in this murder, oh, the suspect."

   "What are you talking about?" Yoko Asanuma was surprised.

   "We are in a hurry, you go change clothes first, I will tell you." Mei Daizi said, "Or you want to go out like this in a bathrobe."

   Asanuma Yoko's room.

   Mei Daizi said, "We found Miss Mingzi in the snow, and she was buried under the snow."

   Asanuma Yoko changed her clothes and said, "How is this possible? Akiko should be in her room."

   Mei Daizi said: "You are the only one who came back tonight. You will come in and go out, and then come in as Miss Akiko."

   Asanuma Yoko said, "What are you talking about? I still had dinner with Ms. Akiko."

"I said, Miss Yoko, don't hold on anymore." Mei Daizi said, "My brother said that although the evidence is insufficient now, you will definitely lose in the lawsuit, and my uncle Maori is a detective, Kogoro Maori, he must be able to Find your flaws, so it's too late for you to surrender now."

   "Mao, Mori Kogoro!" Yoko Asanuma was taken aback.

   "Yes," Mei Daizi smiled, "Uncle Maori is very good, so if you don't want to be detained for a few years, just surrender yourself."...

   Soon after, two vehicles departed from Genbingbei Hot Spring B&B to the hospital. Genhei Kitamura drove Yamazaki and Conan in front of the van he had purchased. As there were no seats, Yamazaki and Conan sat on stools. Mauri drove his rental van with Ran, Yuanzi, Meidaizi, Asanuma Yoko, and Kinoshita Akiko. Kinoshita was lying in the back seat with his head resting on Lan's lap.

   On the way, Conan asked Yamazaki about this in a low voice, Yamazaki told him in a low voice, and asked his opinion.

   "One more, fingerprint." Conan whispered, "The items in Miss Akiko's room, tea cups and tableware."

   "I left it yesterday." Yamazaki whispered, "It can be said to have been wiped."

   "Then I can only let Miss Akiko speak by herself." Conan said.

   Yamazaki smiled and said, "I asked Mei Daizi to talk to her."

   "What?" Conan asked.

   "Uncle's identity as a detective." Yamazaki smiled, "Do you think she will surrender."

   "I hope." Conan smiled. ...

   Emergency outside.

   At about 11:30 in the evening, Kitamura Genbei and Mori drove to the hospital. While waiting for the preliminary results, Yamazaki told Maori the matter.

   "That's the case." Mouri said, and then to Yoko Asanuma, "Miss Yoko, you..."

   Asanuma Yoko said, "Stop talking, Maori detective, I will surrender with you."

   "Turn yourself in?" Maori smiled, "That's good too."

  Lan smiled and said, "Dad, you are so amazing. I caught the prisoner without saying a word."

   "Of course, I am a well-known detective in the world." Maori smiled triumphantly.

   At this time, a nurse came over, "Sir, please be quiet. This is the hospital."

   "Hug, sorry." Maori smiled dryly.

   After the nurse left, Mori breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Yoko Asanuma: "Can I ask about your motive?"

"Because," Yoko Asanuma sighed, "It should be because of jealousy." Then he said, "Akiko has nothing to be picky about, and it’s good for me, but it’s been the first time we met in trials. She always overwhelms me. It is clear that in all aspects, body, appearance, age, and even family background, we are all the same, but this way, she always wins. I am just her substitute, her shadow, and now Akiko has become A big star, many people have said this to me, you really look like Akiko Kinoshita. I don't want to be her shadow forever, so I chose to kill her."

   "Maybe," Yamazaki said, "Miss Yoko, you are one place worse than Ms. Akiko."

   "What?" Yoko Asanuma asked, "please enlighten me."

   "Yeah, what is it?" Sonoko said, "I think they are similar."

   "Family name." Yamazaki smiled, "Kinoshita and Asanuma, if your last name is Asai, you have a bigger win."

   "That's it," said Yoko Asanuma, "There is indeed a problem with that."

   "What does it matter?" Lan asked.

   "Of course there is." Maori smiled, "Just like our family's gross profit, the gross profit is just as much as the gross profit."

   "Really?" Sonoko asked.

  "What is it, of course it is true~www.readwn.com~ Maori said, and then asked, "By the way, Miss Yoko, how many sleeping pills did you take to Miss Akiko? "

   "There are more than a dozen," said Yoko Asanuma, "I wish she was fine now."

   At this time, the light on the door went out, and everyone stopped talking.

   After a while, the doctor came out, "The patient has not taken many sleeping pills, and he has woken up."

   "Thank God." Yoko Asanuma burst into tears.

   Soon after, Akiko Kinoshita was lying on the hospital bed and pushed out by the nurse. After seeing Yoko Asanuma, he stretched out his hand to her.

   "No..." Yoko Asanuma covered her mouth and cried. Then, seeing Akiko Kinoshita shook her hand, she held her hand up and went to the ward.

   "Uh, what does this mean?" Maori asked.

   "It means there is no need for you, a great detective, to go out." Yuanzi laughed.

   Mei Daizi said, "It seems that Miss Akiko forgave Miss Yoko."

   "Isn't this great?" Lan asked with a smile.

"Jealousy is the original sin, and forgiveness is the virtue," Genhei Kitamura said. "This is really a happy thing." Then he asked, "Yes, Maori detective, I still have a good altar of sake. We How about going back for a drink?"

   "Really? So what are you waiting for?" Maori smiled, "Let's go back quickly."

   "It's really good." Yamazaki smiled at Conan.

   "At least you don't need to sit on a cold bench." Conan smiled. ...
