My neighbor's name is Conan

Faced with Moori Kogoro's question, Anzai Akiko quickly replied: "That's why I was like this. When I saw him walking towards box number [-], I asked him why. But he said that he had an appointment with someone."

At this time, Nobuo Iwama also walked to the door of box No. [-]. After taking a look at the situation in the box, his eyes widened instantly and he said in disbelief: "Kaneda?"

Thinking of this, Aoki Song turned around and asked Akiko Anzai on the side: "Miss Anxi, you were the first one to discover the body."

Although Takagi Wataru has returned to work, it is obvious that his treatment has been downgraded by Police Megure.

"Ah!?" Everyone was shocked.

Judging from the performance of the three people just now, it is definitely not the first type, because although Iwama Nobuo was very accommodating to Kinda Keizo, after Kinda Keizo died, Iwama Nobuo did not feel as sad as the death of his son.

Akiko Anzai nodded and said, "Yes, I saw the guests entering the private room, but they never ordered, so I went to the private room No. [-] to check the situation. I didn't expect to run into such a thing."

In the corridor directly opposite Aoki Song's box, the front desk female foreman Anzai Akiko just fell down on the corridor floor in front of box No. [-].

At this time, Kogoro Mouri walked into the box, checked Kaneda Keizo, then shook his head and said: "He is already dead."

She shouted loudly, anxiously and panicked: "Someone come quickly."

Well, he still prefers hot food to cold food.

Akiko Anzai fell to the ground. She pointed to the box in No. [-] in horror and said unbearably: "There is a gentleman..."

On the other hand, the other two dishes that are not so cold, Aoki Song thinks they are more delicious, because they are made with the characteristics of his own restaurant, rather than relying solely on the freshness of the ingredients.

Mouri Kogoro rushed into box number eight without waiting for her to finish.

At this time, Ryuichi Arai came back from outside and passed by Akiko Anzai. He asked with a confused look: "Professor Iwama, what happened?"

Akiko Anzai nodded, "Yes, I'm sure of this. I've been watching the situation in the courtyard at the front desk. No one came out of the box and entered Box [-]. It's surrounded by waterways. The only way to get to the yard is through the door. That bridge.”

Maruta Ayumi heard this and said with confusion: "In this case, how could the murderer enter Box [-]?"

Mouri Kogoro replied: "Aoki Police Department, I think the murderer used the waterway. The waterway here surrounds all the boxes. As long as you pass through the waterway, you can reach any box."

"It's impossible to walk by water." Aoki Song shook his head and retorted directly.

Chapter 320 Is there another "one" who has already stood there?

Seeing that Aoki Song rejected his reasoning without thinking, Mouri Kogoro immediately asked: "Why is it impossible?"

"If you take the waterway, it is easy for someone to notice this abnormal behavior. And the depth of the waterway is more than 50 centimeters. If you take the waterway, there will definitely be a lot of water in the No. [-] box, but I checked the eight Box No. [-] is very dry and there is no place to get wet." Aokisong said.

After listening to Aoki Song's words, Mouri Kogoro said with some reluctance: "Maybe there are other methods."

Aoki Song thought for a while and said: "This is also possible. To be cautious, Takagi, go to each box and ask if they have seen anyone passing by in the waterway."

"Yes." Takagi Sheba took the order and quickly went to ask people in several other rooms.

It didn't take long for Takagi Shita to come back.

"Police Department, I asked the guests in boxes four, five, six, and seven, and they all said they didn't see anyone passing by the waterway." Takagi Wataru reported.

After listening to Takagi Wataru's report, Mouri Kogoro said in surprise: "What, no one saw anyone passing by in the waterway."

Takagi Sheba nodded: "There were more than four people in each box. No one left, and they didn't see anyone passing by the waterway. They only saw the boat delivering food passing by."

"Could it be diving?" Mouri Kogoro guessed.

"Impossible. The water here is only fifty centimeters deep. It is impossible to dive. Even if you dive there, you will be easily discovered." Takagi Wataru retorted.

Aoki Song also said: "So, it would be impossible to enter by diving. However, since the murderer cannot be someone from outside, he must be a customer inside the restaurant. Now we need to investigate the alibi."

After hearing Aokimatsu's words, Maruda Ayumi opened his notebook and said: "At about [-]:[-], the victim came out of the box on the [-]rd, and at about [-] o'clock, he was found dead in the [-]th. Inside the box, the Forensics Department estimated the time of death to be around [-]:[-]."

"In this case, the murderer was someone who was not in the box between seven-thirty and eight o'clock." Aoki Song thought for a while and said.

Hearing this, Takagi Shepa quickly said: "Just now, I have inquired in the boxes No. [-], [-], [-], and [-]. During this period of time, no one in their boxes has left. They have always been together. While eating, we chatted.”

"That's right." Aoki Song nodded, not surprised by the result.

After all, he had previously felt that the murderer in this case was either Nobuo Iwama or Ryuichi Arai.

So Aoki Song turned to look at the two of them and asked: "Professor Iwama, where were you at [-]:[-]?"

Nobuo Iwama quickly replied: "I have been in box three."

At this time, Mouri Kogoro also intervened: "I remember that at that time, Professor Iwama yelled."

"Ahaha, that's right. I was looking for contact lenses at that time and accidentally knocked over the plate." Nobuo Iwama said sheepishly as he followed Kogoro Mori's words.

Mouri Kogoro added: "After that, I also saw that the window of the third box was closed. This may prove that you were not at the murder scene."

Aoki Song raised his eyebrows and keenly noticed that there was a problem in Mouri Kogoro's words.

It was not that Mouri Kogoro deliberately lied for Iwama Nobuo, but the situation at the time - Moori Kogoro did not see Nobuo Iwama himself!

As a senior scientist, Aoki Song knew a lot about how to create his own alibi in this indirect way.

The simplest is audio recording, which was used in many early cases.

Therefore, no matter how believable it sounds, as long as you don't see the person in person, it may be a trick, and you must be more cautious.

There was some doubt in his heart, but Aoki Song did not ask immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Ryuichi Arai and asked, "What about you, Mr. Arai? You probably returned to the restaurant after the murder happened, right?"

"Yes." Arai Ryuichi responded first, and then quickly explained: "After I went out in Kaneda, the professor asked me to buy a pack of cigarettes for him, so I went to buy cigarettes for him." As he said that, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket.

Then Ryuichi Arai added: "Because the brand of cigarettes that the professor smoked was no longer available in the restaurant, I went to a nearby supermarket to buy them."

Hearing this, Anzai Akiko quickly testified: "Yes, because the brand of cigarettes he bought was sold out in our restaurant. So, I told him the location of the supermarket."

"It took me about 10 minutes to walk to the supermarket. I still have the receipt from the supermarket." Ryuichi Arai took out his wallet from his pocket, took out another receipt in the wallet, and handed it to Aoki Song.

Aoki Song took the receipt, looked at it and said, "The time on the receipt is 52:[-]." And it's also today's date this year.

Seeing this, Mouri Kogoro reasoned: "In other words, both of them have sufficient alibi. So the murderer is only among the other guests?"

Hearing what Mouri Kogoro said, the expressions of Nobuo Iwama and Takashi Arai softened a lot.

Aokimatsu did not answer Mouri Kogoro's words, but looked at Maruta Ayumi aside and said: "Go to this supermarket to verify the situation and see how long it takes to get back and forth."

"Yes!" Ayumi Maruda replied.

Then Aoki Songcai said: "The other guests in the box are all more than four people. It is impossible for the murderer to avoid it, unless the people in the box deliberately concealed it for the murderer."

Gao Musha shook his head and said: "This should be impossible. When I investigated just now, I didn't find anything strange about the people in any of the boxes."

"In this case, Professor Iwama and Mr. Arai, you two were alone at the time, so you are still suspicious." Aoki Song said.

Arai Ryuichi said nervously after hearing this: "How can we kill Kaneda?"

Nobuo Iwama also said: "Stop joking, how could we be the murderers?"

"It's hard to say. After all, when you came, Detective Maori and I saw that the victim's attitude was very arrogant and he didn't respect either of you." Aoki Song said lightly.

Mouri Kogoro also said: "That's true, but they all have alibis!"

"So I just said that they are suspected, not that they are the murderers." Aokimatsu looked at Nobuo Iwama and Ryuichi Arai and said: "Both of you, please cooperate. Please stay here now and don't move around casually to avoid Cause unnecessary misunderstandings. If you are innocent, we will not unjustly accuse you."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the reaction of the two people, Aoki Song looked at Akiko Anzai aside and said: "Miss Anxi, please come with me."

"Ah, okay." Anzai Akiko responded. When she saw Aoki Song walking towards box number eight, she quickly followed him in small steps.

Aoki Song asked Anzai Akiko to wait outside the door of box No. [-], and he walked in with Takagi Wataru.

Aokisong has always been biased against the forensic department when it comes to autopsies and murder scene inspections, so he has to do it again himself.

Sure enough, Aoki Song soon found a clue on the victim's body - there was a black substance on the inside of the thumb of the victim's right hand.

"What is this?" Aoki Song pointed there and looked at the criminal in the forensics class and asked.

"According to my preliminary judgment, it should be some kind of caviar." The forensics officer replied.

Takagi Wataru was stunned when he heard this, "Caviar?"

Aoki Song narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully: "I remember that the most expensive thing in this restaurant is puffer fish caviar."

Thinking of this, Aoki Song quickly called Akiko Anzai in. "Ms. Anxi, please tell me the serving time of each box, do you still remember?"

"I didn't look at my watch at the time, so I'm not sure, but I do remember the order in which the dishes were served." Akiko Anzai replied.

After hearing this, Aoki Song thought for a while and asked: "Box No. [-], do you still remember when the food was served?"

"It happened to be 07:30. It was a coincidence that I happened to look at my watch at that time. Because Professor Iwama and the others ordered a lot of dishes and spent a lot of time making them, I looked at my watch after they served the dishes." Anxi Akiko said.

"Then you should have records of what dishes were ordered in each box." Aoki Song asked again.

Akiko Anzai nodded, "There must be a record, otherwise how will we pay the bill later." They are ordering and serving food here, not a set meal.

"Puffer fish caviar, except for box 3, has no one ordered it today?" Aoki Song asked.

Anzai Akiko shook her head after hearing this, "No one orders it anymore. To be honest, although puffer fish caviar is our signature feature, it is puffer fish after all. The poison content in the roe is higher than puffer fish meat, so not many people order it."

What's more, this thing is expensive and the price-performance ratio is really not high.

Only people who are showing off, or people who really like to eat and are not short of money, will order it.

Real hammer!

One of the two people, Nobuo Iwama and Ryuichi Arai, must be the murderer.

There was puffer fish caviar on the inside of the big finger, which could only have been touched by the victim when he was fighting with the murderer. He was later stabbed to death, so there was no way to wipe it off on his own initiative.

If it wasn't for this reason, how could the victim have kept Big Thumb dipped in puffer fish caviar!Whatever you do like that will easily stain it and it will definitely be wiped off.

Among these two people, the most likely one is Nobuo Iwama.

Because Arai Ryuichi was taken away by Nobuo Iwama to buy cigarettes, Arai Ryuichi also took out the supermarket receipt and there was a high chance that there would be no problem.

Of course, there is no evidence now, so Nobuo Iwama cannot be arrested directly.

And there is an extremely small chance that Akiko Anzai is also the murderer!

Because for now, this case is not a classic choice of three, but a choice of two.

So this thing that is not in line with Ke Xue is because the old 73 thieves rebelled and did it deliberately.

Is there another "one" who has been standing in front of everyone for a long time? This is Miss Anxi.

The two of them seem to be about the same age, so why can't they hate each other because of love?

There are many such cases in "Detective Conan".

Therefore, Qingmusong will not jump to conclusions without evidence.
