Infinite Kings Advent

Vol 20 Chapter 182: Vending machine

Seeing Nishitani Miho's expression, she seemed to really not know what Mr. Nagai was following her.

The windows and doors are all locked, and the airbrush to prevent perverts is also prepared at home. It seems that the previous tracking incident caused her sequelae.

After that, Officer Megome asked about something insignificant, but did not find any meaningful clues, so he closed the team for the time being and went to the detective office in the afternoon to discuss the case with Kogoro Mori.

"The poison added in Katzman has been checked and it is indeed an organophosphorus compound."

Officer Megome sat on the sofa and said, "But only Mr. Nagai's fingerprints were checked on the bottle. In other words, this bottle of poison-containing drink was probably prepared by the murderer in advance."

Mouri Kogoro sat opposite and said, "Can you determine where the murderer bought the poisoned Kazeman?"

"No." Officer Megumi shook his head and said, "This has not been ascertained. If the bottle of drink came from that vending machine, judging from the date and sticker on the bottle..."

Officer Mumu took the tea from Mao Lilan, took a sip, and put it on the table.

"It should have been sold between seven days ago and yesterday during the day. This is because after noon yesterday, the industry changed all bottles without stickers and branded bottles with new dates."

"That's it." Mouri Kogoro said.

Officer Megome said: "It is said that Mr. Nagai's mother has come from Shizuoka to Tokyo just now. We just showed her the deceased's room and found this thing."

He took out a photo album from his briefcase and handed it to Kogoro Mouri.

Kogoro Mouri opened the album, most of which were photos of Miho Nishitani. "This is the photo of the lady this morning. It seems that all of them were taken secretly."

Officer Mumu said, "I met this woman again before I came here. It seemed that she didn't know about the secret photo. She was shocked when she heard it."

"Strange." Xie Chen, who was looking at the photo album, said suddenly: "This apartment is not the same as the one just now. It is neither a storefront nor a restaurant."

Officer Megure said: "Because she lived in Yokohama for a while before coming to the rice flower market, she always hoped to open a cake shop there in the future, so she would work in a Western-style confectionery shop."

Kogoro Mouri said, "Is it because she moved to Mihua Town to avoid Mr. Nagai?"

"It seems so."

Officer Megumi said: "But she was very afraid of going to bed at night because of the influence of the Wolf of Popcorn, so Miss Nishitani said that she would choose to work in a family restaurant from night to day."

Mao Lilan sighed suddenly: "It looks like she is having a very painful life, so pitiful."

Officer Megome cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Nagai has the living expenses of his father who runs the iron factory, so he said that he doesn't need to work for a living."

Mouri Kogoro said: "It is because of this that he can follow Miss Nishitani all day long. It is unfortunate that she will be liked by such people."

Moriran nodded in agreement, and Officer Megure said, "I just don't know if Miss Nishitani really didn't notice that Mr. Nagai was following her."

Xie Chen nodded. He felt painful with Officer Mumu, and Nishitani must have nothing to say.

auzw.com Mouri Kogoro said: "So you think she poisoned Kazeman for him to take it?"

Officer Megure said: "We really can't rule out this possibility. For example, if Miss Nishitani knew that Mr. Nagai was following her at all."

"That's why I bought a Kazman from the vending machine, and when I took it out, I put the poisoned Kazman in at the same time."

"And if Mr. Nagai bought Kazeman again, he accidentally took the wrong bottle."

"But..." said Kogoro Mouri, "The problem is that Mr. Nagai might not buy a drink like Kazeman like her."

Xie Chen took out a can of Katzman from the refrigerator and put it on the coffee table in front of them, "Officer Mumu, you forgot an important thing, look."

As he said, he unscrewed Katzman's bottle cap, "The bottom ring on the bottle mouth is cut off. If you put the poison in and close the lid, everyone will find that no one can drink it."

"You are right." Officer Mumu said.

"That said," Mouri Kogoro said, "This is not what the murderer put in the vending machine in advance."

Officer Megumi sighed and said, holding his arms, "I am really getting confused now. By the way, there is one more thing about Mr. Nagai."

"what?"

"That was when he left the apartment at around ten o'clock last night, and other residents said that they had seen Mr. Nagai holding a small bag in his hand last night."

Mouri Kogoro said, "But when he fell this morning, he had nothing at hand."

Officer Megome said: "Maybe it has nothing to do with this case, I'm just a little worried."

After school the next day, Xie Chen went to the convenience store closest to yesterday's crime scene and happened to foresee the Taguchi police officer at the convenience store.

"Mr. Policeman." Xie Chen walked over to say hello.

Taguchi smiled and said, "Are you Xie Chen with Maori."

"Yes." Xie Chen asked: "Are you asking about the case?"

Taguchi said: "I was thinking that if I could prove that the victim had bought Kazeman here, the case would become clear."

Xie Chen asked, "Have you checked the fingerprints of the coins in the vending machine?"

"I checked it." Taguchi said, "But the victim's fingerprints were not found. On the contrary, we found that the fingerprints on a 100-yuan coin and a ten-yuan coin were wiped clean."

Xie Chen nodded, and he was right. The murderer bought Kazman at this convenience store.

Taguchi continued: "There is a convenience store here, and it is said that sometimes surprising pictures are sometimes taken on the video tape."

"Video tape..." Xie Chen thought for a while and asked: "Police officer, have you investigated all of Mr. Nagai's things? Can you tell me what you have."
