Conan's Corpse Picker

In front of the exposed door, Mao Lilan twisted a tall man wearing glasses and pushed him into the living room.

On the way from the gate to the living room, they passed many policemen.The policemen stared at this contrasting scene of escorting, and were stunned for a moment. They couldn’t decide whether to stop or help. In the end, their thoughts conflicted, and they all froze in place, and even moved to the wall, watching Mao Lilan hold the person. Into the hall.

At Mao Lilan's feet, Conan followed with a helpless expression.

When the two heard Suzuki Sonoko calling "Jiang Xia", they were each startled, and instinctively turned their eyes to look for it.Soon, they found this classmate detective who was a model worker than the previous Kudo Shinichi.

Jiang Xia also looked towards the door.

His eyes fell on the strong man who was struggling under Mao Lilan's hands, but he couldn't get rid of it: "This is..."

"We were shopping outside just now, and we were almost knocked down by this sneaky guy - he didn't even look at the road while driving, and someone on the zebra crossing dared to drive straight ahead."

Suzuki Sonoko snorted, touched his chin with a deep expression, imitating the way of a detective, reasoning in a decent way:

"Later, he came to his senses and stopped the car in a hurry, but I figured out that there must be something wrong with this guy! Sure enough—when he got out of the car to check the situation, I heard the Mumu Police Department call him, Let him come over for an investigation.

"At that time, I was curious and casually asked a few words. He was so panicked that he turned his head and wanted to run away, so I made a decisive decision!" Sonoko Suzuki waved his small hand and said forcefully, "Let Xiaolan catch him!"

Next to him, Mao Lilan pressed the tall and strong man like pinching a chick, and nodded with deep merit and fame.

Chapter 886 Let You Meet Vodka

Conan sighed helplessly beside him.

Jiang Xia also sighed skillfully.

Next to it, the Mumu Police Department also sighed tiredly, and then walked towards Mao Lilan, intending to rescue the person in her hands.

At the same time, I cleared my throat and tried to popularize science: "Thank you for your help. However, we just want to invite Mr. Quan to come over as a witness to learn about the situation from him—well, you see, if he is a suspect, we will definitely not call him. It didn’t alarm him, but went directly to the door.”

"..."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko smiled proudly and froze.

Conan stood beside him, nodding resentfully like a chicken pecking at rice: He had already reminded the two girls when they arrested them just now, but Sonoko Suzuki pushed him back, accompanied by the sentence "Kids don't care about adults." thing".

And Mao Lilan didn't know why, but she also got a bit of a detective's impulse, and really messed around with Suzuki Sonoko, escorting the hapless witness. .

……

Suzuki Sonoko fiddled with the hairpin on the top of his head, a little embarrassed: "So that's the case. But... well, but a famous person in the last century said that there is often only a thin line between witnesses and suspects! We arrest people for the sake of Just in case..." As she spoke, her volume gradually decreased, and she looked at Jiang Xia with a little timidity, "Right."

Jiang Xia: "..."

He remembered a strange legend: every time he passes a Chinese composition test, there will be a group of mysterious celebrities in the world.They have different identities and nationalities. The only thing they have in common is that they can always say a famous saying that fits the topic of the composition.

"..." But now, the existence of that "celebrity" and that "famous saying" Suzuki Sonoko said is obviously not the point.

The point is...

Jiang Xia nodded, and helped her avoid the subject from the witness with a face:

"Indeed, but the specifics still depend on the evidence - the police department, Miss Kojima Chihiro and this gentleman who was just found outside, shouldn't be the ones who called the police. Who was the first person to discover the body?"

Acquaintances, people who discovered the body first, "passers-by" who haunted the scene from time to time after the incident, and who were too active in eating melons...

These are the objects of priority suspicion.

As soon as the topic turned to the case, apart from the witness himself, no one really bothered about how he got here.

"The person who called the police was a subordinate of the electrical company where the deceased worked, Yoshioka Juro." Mumu Police Department answered Jiang Xia's question, and motioned him to the sofa on the other side of the living room, where a middle-aged man was sitting, "That's right. That gentleman."

The deceased's daughter, the "captured" witnesses, and the deceased's colleagues.

There are three people.

The Mumu Police Department walked to Jiang Xia, probably because he felt that it was troublesome to straighten out the timeline, so he simply handed over the notes he made:

"Fortunately, there is a surveillance camera at the door of the house, which records the order of visitors' arrival and the specific time. This is how we found several witnesses."

The notes in the notebook are a bit scribbled.

The Mumu Police Department originally wanted to point to those lines and explain them to Jiang Xia one by one.But after saying a few words, I felt a little confused again, and I got stuck.

Pausing for a moment, he touched the brim of his hat as if nothing had happened: "It happens that everyone is already there, so let's just watch the surveillance."

As he spoke, he turned to several witnesses: "Please think back to what happened when you came here to visit, and whether you noticed any abnormalities on the way."

……

After explaining the precautions.

The Mumu Police Department pressed the remote control switch and replayed the surveillance during the problem period.

This is not the monitor next to the courtyard gate, but the monitor at the door of the house.

"Mr. Quan Wuxiong was the first to come." That is, the panicked staff who was brought back by Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, "He is an employee of TM Securities, and the deceased is his client. Judging from the monitoring time, Mr. Quan was 8 Click through the door and leave at 8:40."

Suzuki Sonoko stood next to Jiang Xia, touched his chin in the same posture imitating him, and stared deeply at the monitoring screen.

— After all, she and Xiaolan arrested the person. Although the police said that Quan Wuxiong was just a witness, Suzuki Sonoko felt that there was definitely something wrong with Quan Wuxiong's flustered appearance from his own sharp eyes!

……

Staring at the monitor, watching the picture of Quan Wuxiong entering and leaving the door.

Suzuki Sonoko slapped his palms suddenly: "Look! When he entered, his expression was calm, but when he came out, his eyes were full of anger, which was very fierce. There must have been a quarrel between two people in the room, and then Quan Wuxiong brutally threw He was killed!" At the end, she didn't forget to flip through the case-solving reference book on the side, and turned to look at the reliable Jiang Xia, "That's right."

Jiang Xia stroked the cat and echoed, "It makes sense."

Suzuki Sonoko immediately straightened her waist.She relaxed, and reached out to touch the cat in Jiang Xia's arms.After a while, I couldn't help but sigh happily: "It feels so good."

Jiang Xia nodded sympathetically.

"Ahem." Mu Mu Police Department interrupted hesitantly, "Don't worry, read it first."

He pressed the remote.

Monitoring flies fast forward.

Then it resumed its normal speed before the next time someone entered the door.

At 8:53, ten minutes after Izumi Goxiong left, the daughter of the deceased, Chihiro Kojima, came to the door.

The doors here are all coded locks. Although Kojima Chihiro does not live with her mother, she knows the codes.

However, before entering the password, she turned the doorknob casually.It was found that the door was not locked—when the deceased had an appointment with someone, he would often leave the door open for the other person to come in by himself. This was her habit of sitting in the office all year round.

In the monitoring screen, Kojima Chihiro was not surprised by the "door is open" and pushed the door open.

……

After her figure disappeared from the screen, the Mumu Police Department pressed fast forward again and explained:

"Four minutes after Ms. Kojima entered the door, the security device of the house was triggered, and the security personnel arrived quickly—they arrived at exactly 4 o'clock, knocked on the door, and met Ms. Kojima Ikuko.

"After a brief exchange, the security guards learned that it was a misunderstanding that the alarm was triggered, so they caught the cat that had entered the hospital by mistake, and left quickly... By the way, they were still outside the courtyard gate, and met Jiang Xia."

Next to it, the two security guards who were invited to be witnesses nodded slightly, indicating that this was indeed the case.

Jiang Xia nodded, indicating that the last sentence was indeed correct.

However, regarding the previous part, he silently nodded in his heart.

……

The Mumu police department can't see through the detective's deep psychological activities.

Seeing Jiang Xia nodded for confirmation, he pressed the remote control to continue playing the next part.

Judging from the timing of the surveillance screen, not long after the security guard left, Kojima Chihiro hurried out of the door and quickly disappeared from the surveillance range.

Chapter 887

Later, at 9:20, Yoshioka Juro came to visit.

It can be seen from the monitoring that after pressing the doorbell at the gate, but no one responded, Yoshioka Juro twisted the doorknob suspiciously, pushed the door open and entered.

After a while, he ran out in a hurry and quickly left the monitoring range.

……

"According to the time comparison, Mr. Yoshioka Juro did not stop after leaving Kojima's house. Immediately called the police."

After carefully broadcasting the monitoring, the Mumu Police Department pressed the pause button, picked up his notebook again, and turned to several people who appeared on the monitoring screen.

From the perspective of the Mumu Police Department, among the witnesses related to this case, who is the most suspected...

First of all, Jiang Xia and the two security company personnel were excluded—the security company personnel acted in groups of two, and they didn't even enter the door. They just stood at the door and chatted for a few words before leaving with the cat.Jiang Xia didn't even enter the courtyard. .The suspicion of the three can be completely ruled out.

And the remaining three people who entered the house...

When the security guard came, he had met the deceased, so Izumi Wuxiong who left before that—that is, the witness escorted by two female high school students and an elementary school student—can also be excluded.

The remaining Kojima Chihiro and Yoshioka Juro, if you want to say who is the most suspected...

The Mumu Police Department pulled Jiang Xia who was distracted to the side, revealing Chihiro Kojima hiding behind him: "Well, may I ask, when you left, was your mother still alive?"

Kojima Chihiro was stunned, always feeling that there was something in the police department's words, as if she had acquiesced that she was the murderer.

She slapped the table angrily: "I didn't kill the person! It must be those two people, they both have motives!"

As she said that, she raised her hand and pointed at Quan Wuxiong: "This person, after getting the authorization from my mother, bought a bunch of junk stocks without authorization. I heard my mother complain that she lost [-] million because of this. And this guy-"

She pointed to Juro Yoshioka again: "He and my mother had a lot of business conflicts, and he often muttered 'kill her sooner or later'."

Yoshioka Juro stood up in a panic: "I'm just talking about it! What kind of evidence is this!"

Kojima Chihiro saw that others panicked, and immediately calmed down a lot, feeling that the charge of "murder" was far away from her.

At the same time, in desperation, she suddenly discovered other factors, turned to the police, and said loudly: "By the way, in the surveillance video just now, Yoshioka stayed in the house for more than ten minutes before calling the police-he can see it as soon as he enters the living room. To the dead body! If he was really just a passer-by calling the police, he should have rushed out in a minute or two, so why stay in the house for so long.

"And after he left, there was an extra file bag in his hand! - I have read a lot of detective-related newspaper clippings, rounding it up means that he has a lot of experience in solving crimes. There is definitely something wrong with Yoshioka! My mother must have mastered some of his Criminal evidence, use those to threaten him, but he was killed instead!"

Officer Sato who was watching: "..."

She couldn't help but glanced at Jiang Xia: Miss Kojima really deserves to be a frequent visitor to Jiang Xia's place.Thinking has completely turned into the shape of a detective...

Miwako Sato has some impressions of Chihiro Kojima——

A few days ago, in a case they handled, the brother of the deceased robbed a jewelry store and scattered the looted jewelry into what he identified as a "burial place" so that the police could dig up the courtyard to find the body.

And Kojima Chihiro is the manager of that unlucky jewelry store.At that time, she found that the store was robbed, and she chased out fiercely with a long gun. Afterwards, Miwako Sato checked her gun license.
