Soon, Miwako’s side arrived with a team and began to inspect the scene.

“The victim, Mr. Katsunori Nakajo, 43 years old, has a business card on his body that shows that he is the president of a credit reference company…”

“Is that a detective?” Fuyuma nodded, and then suddenly recalled the conversation he had just heard at the neighboring table.

“I probably understand the motive for the killing, but the question is what is the strange death message on this envelope?” Fuyuma looked at the envelope suspiciously.

“Police, what was the situation like?” Miwako asked seriously.

“We were drinking coffee in the café next door, and then suddenly the power went out, and then when the lights came on, we heard screams here, and we found the body of the victim.” Fuyuma briefly describes the situation at that time.

“Blackout?” Miwako looked at Takagi and asked suspiciously.

“Regarding the power outage, it seems that the management company of the building made a little error when checking the wires, and the power outage time was about 15 seconds.” The newcomer Nozomi replied in Takagi’s place.

“Speaking of which, what about Takagi?” Fuyuma wondered, as a subordinate of Miwako, he usually followed Miwako out on field work, and it was a little strange that he didn’t see him today.

“He followed Twilight Police to investigate the case of the new serial killer, after all, the object involved is a bit dangerous, so Twilight Police is personally doing it, and Takagi Shiratori and they are helping.” Miwako replied.

“As things stand, the prisoner is supposed to have killed and escaped during the power outage, and the deceased, Mr. Nakajo, left a death message of unknown significance before he died…”

“But what do you mean by this circle, fork, and three horns?” Ono asked suspiciously.

“It looks like it’s all a common symbol for code words.” Miwako said.

“Speaking of which, I seem to have seen such symbols before!” Judy said after suddenly remembering something.

“What did you say?!” Miwako exclaimed, “Where the hell did you see it!” ”

“Please think about it!” Ono also stared at her anxiously.

However, Dongma glanced at Judy with a look of contempt, and then gave an answer in advance, “If it is Teacher Judy, I think the similar symbol she is familiar with should be a gamepad!” ”

“Oh… Right! That’s right! It’s the keys on the gamepad! Judy looked at Winter Horse with a look of surprise, not noticing the dead fish eyes of everyone around her.

“Hahaha…” Everyone burst into awkward laughter, and then skipped the topic perfectly.

“Police, Sato Police Department, the call record of our victim’s mobile phone was thirty minutes ago!” The Identification Division reported.

“Thirty minutes ago? Isn’t that time? Miwako was surprised.

“How about calling over and seeing?” Conan reminded.

Dongma also smiled and said: “Say, maybe it will be a person who has seen it.” ”

“Yes!” Then Ono pressed the callback button.

At the same time, the lobby on the first floor of the department store, which seemed to be somewhat quiet, suddenly sounded a burst of mobile phone ringing.

It was the middle-aged minister who was sitting next to Dongma’s table before.

He turned off the phone in a panic, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Miwako and Ono walked up to him.

“That’s you, right? The one who called Nakajo thirty minutes ago! ”

“That…” the middle-aged minister hesitated, as if there was something unspeakable.

“You better tell me clearly, but I heard you say what information you want to buy from the victim…” said Fuyuma with a smile.

“Got it… I say! ”

So, everyone came to the café and listened to the confession of the general affairs director of a certain business club called Fan Jiu in the afterlife.

“So that’s the case, hire detectives to investigate insiders of the company?” Miwako nodded, such a thing seemed a little illegal, but it was far from the point of crime.

The Minister of Afterlife continued: “Yes, because I found out that someone had embezzled the company’s public funds last month, before notifying the president, the general manager asked me to find out the prisoner first!” ”

“Where is your company?” Miwako asked.

“The eighth to eleventh floors of this building are all from our company.” The Minister of Afterlife replied.

“Well, that means you received a contact from the detective saying that you have found the prisoner, so in order to avoid meeting him in the company, you are preparing to meet in this café.”

“Yes, because the appointed time has not yet arrived, I called him.”

Ono said abruptly: “The envelope in Nakajo’s arms is the evidence of the embezzler’s crime, which also attracted the murderous intent of the embezzler, killed him and took away the evidence, and fled to the company upstairs!” ”

“Well, then you really don’t have a clue about that embezzler?” Miwako asked.

“Not really!” The Minister of Afterlife immediately shook his head and said, “A week ago, I received a midterm report from the detective, and he gave me a list of suspected members. ”

Saying that, he took out a list, looked at the names on the list, and found that there were a total of fifty-eight names on it.

“It’s almost impossible to check this one by one…” said Ono helplessly.

So everyone returned to the scene again, and Ono summarized the reports of various police officers.

After confirming that the three symbols were indeed written in Nakajo’s blood, and that Nakajo’s fingerprints were left on it, Ono gave a new eyewitness testimony.

“According to eyewitnesses, Mr. Nakajo was killed before the power outage, and just in front of this escalator, the department store lost power while fighting with the prisoner for the documents in the folder.”

Pointing to the blood stain in front of the escalator, Ono went on to explain, “After the electricity was applied, Mr. Nakajo sat motionless at the entrance of the escalator below. And a figure in a trench coat pulled out the paper-like paper and fled upstairs. Although Mr. Nakajo tried to keep the information, he was unsuccessful in the end, and after his death, he was sent by the elevator to the exit of the second floor of the elevator. “_
