Conan's Almighty Extraction

Chapter 360 Revenge Beach (5)

Butler Kamei's answer gave Inoki a preliminary direction for his investigation, and he asked, "Then the person who handed over this lunch box to Lawyer Tachibana was Mr. Sakuraba, right?"

Butler Kamei nodded and explained: "Because Mrs. Tachibana suddenly asked me to do another matter today, so I asked Mr. Sakuraba to give the lunch to Lawyer Tachibana on my behalf."

"Ms. Tachibana, Mr. Sakuraba, Butler Kamei."

Criminal Inoki looked at the three names recorded in the police handbook, and said with a sense of comprehension: "So, there are three people who have the opportunity to take sleeping pills now."

Butler Kamei was taken aback by Inoki's words, and quickly denied it: "Don't talk nonsense, why would we put sleeping pills in Lawyer Tachibana's lunch."

At the same time, Secretary Sakuraba came in from the outside with a briefcase, and after hearing Butler Kamei's words, she asked in puzzlement, "What sleeping pills? What are you talking about?"

"You are Mr. Sakuraba."

After hearing the voice, Criminal Inoki turned his head to look at Secretary Sakuraniwa, and asked, "Mr. Sakuraniwa, do you know that lawyer Kensuke Tachibana has died?"

"Yes," Secretary Sakuraniwa replied with a painful expression on his face, "When I was in the parking lot just now, I already heard from the police."

Criminal Inoki straightened his face, stared at Secretary Sakuraba seriously, and asked, "May I ask you, where have you been? You came back so late."

"I went to the office in Tokyo to help the lawyer deal with the matter he explained."

Secretary Sakuraba's complexion changed slightly, and he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose. After explaining the reason for going out today, he asked in turn: "I heard that the lawyer drowned today because of a capsized boat, but how could sleeping pills be involved in this case?" Woolen cloth?"

Seeing that Secretary Sakuraniwa didn't seem to be lying, Criminal Inoki immediately relieved his doubts about him, and explained: "According to my speculation, someone may have put sleeping pills in Lawyer Tachibana's coffee pot."

"How could it be?" Secretary Sakuraniwa was taken aback after hearing this, and couldn't believe Inoki's speculation.

Mori Kogoro, who has been thinking hard for a long time, has gained a little bit, and reminded: "This is just one of the inferences. It may also be the guy wearing the red baseball cap who forced Lawyer Tachibana to drink sleeping pills."

Criminal Inoki's eyes lit up, he looked at Kogoro Mori with admiration, and agreed: "Yes, the possibility is indeed very high."

Maha Shiraiwa suddenly remembered what happened at dinner yesterday, and asked Secretary Sakuraniwa: "Mr. Sakuraniwa, I heard from Manager Sugura yesterday that your office has often received strange letters recently, right?"

"To be honest, Lawyer Ju has indeed received several threatening letters recently."

Secretary Sakuraba admitted, and then took everyone to Lawyer Tachibana's study, and took out the three threatening letters.

"If you don't want to be disqualified as a lawyer, prepare 300 million. TK." Criminal Inoki read out the contents of one of the letters, and confirmed: "This is indeed a threatening letter."

The horse farm criminal found Lawyer Ju's diary, which read [You have been committing crimes openly all the time, and you have come to threaten me so that you will be acquitted. Such evil deeds can only be done by incurable villains. come out.Damn it! ], obviously the [you] mentioned here should refer to the [TK] who threatened him.

After reading the three threatening letters, Criminal Inoki felt that the murderer was this person named [TK], and asked, "Mr. Sakuraba, do you have any clues about the abbreviation [TK]?"

"That. I don't know." Secretary Sakuraniwa hesitated to deny, but his unnatural behavior aroused Shiraiwa Maha's suspicion.

Shiraiwa Maha stared into the eyes of Secretary Sakuraniwa, and asked, "According to Lawyer Tachibana's diary, Lawyer Tachibana knew who that person was and that he had committed some crime, but he was helpless to acquit him. As Lawyer Tachibana's secretary, don't tell me you don't know about this?"

Secretary Yingting lowered her eyes, and still denied it: "Well, regarding this letter, when I was sorting out the documents, I accidentally read the content, but the lawyer was furious and told me to forget about it. , so I really don’t know the specifics.”

At this time, Xiaolan pushed open the door of the study and reminded: "Mr. Police, the people from the law firm are here."

Criminal Inoki kept the three threatening letters and Lawyer Tachibana's diary in an evidence bag, and handed them over to the horse farm criminal for safekeeping, and then suggested: "Mr. Maori, let's go there together, and we are going to ask them some questions."

Mori Kogoro nodded, pretending to be confident, and agreed: "Well, let's meet those people together, so we can find the key clues to solve the case."

Afterwards, everyone came to the living room together, only to find that there was only a fat middle-aged man.

This fat middle-aged man is named Fumio Fujisawa, a lawyer working for Tachibana Law Firm.

"I originally wanted to bring back Lawyer Ju's body, but the police refused."

After Mr. Fujisawa explained his reason for coming, he asked Criminal Inoki, "Mr. Police, is there anything suspicious about this case?"

"To be honest, there are indeed a few places that need to be clarified."

Criminal Inoki nodded, and asked lawyer Fujisawa: "Mr. Fujisawa, do you know where Mrs. Tachibana and the manager named Sugimura are now?"

Lawyer Fujisawa knew something about the situation of the two of them, and replied truthfully: "Madam is at her home now, with her family. As for Manager Sugimura, she doesn't go to work every Sunday. This time it seems Where did you go to play, I haven't contacted her yet."

"So that's the case, then there is one more thing I want to ask."

Criminal Inoki took out the police handbook again, and continued to ask Lawyer Fujisawa some things related to Lawyer Tachibana, such as whether Lawyer Tachibana has seen any strangers recently, whether he has had conflicts with anyone, and whether he knows that the codename is [TK] people wait.

Lawyer Fujisawa also gave answers to the questions raised by Criminal Inoki, but unfortunately there were no useful clues.

Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them bid farewell and left, and Shiraiwa Maha and the others began to enjoy the dinner cooked by Butler Kamei.

After dinner, everyone soaked in the hot springs in the villa. Attorney Fujisawa was planning to leave, but considering that the police might continue to ask him some information, he stayed in the villa to rest.
