Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1565 1565 [hostage]

"Rainboots? Isn't this recognized as a good helper for destroying corpses and traces?"

Jiang Xia looked at the receipt in Inspector Yasa's hand, and stood up: "Let your forensics department find the remaining clues in this room. As for where to arrest the suspect now, I think it's best to go to Take a look at the back door of this building."

"Back door?" Inspector Yasa also stood up and handed the note in his hand to his subordinates.

He wiped his hands and thought for a moment, then he understood: "That's right, the person who fell from the building attracted a large number of passers-by to watch. Those people gathered at the entrance of the building. The murderer may not dare to leave from the main entrance...Go!" Yasa The inspector waved his hand and greeted his subordinates, "Go downstairs and have a look."

……

A group of people walked along the stairs, rumbling towards the back door.

When I got to the door, I took a closer look and saw that the back door was locked, and there was even a door chain hanging on it, so it couldn't be opened and closed from the outside.

Jiang Xia looked at the door chain carefully: "There is no trace of tape or fishing line, the murderer probably did not leave through the back door."

Sergeant Anna reminded in a low voice: "The person who fell from the building is still being rescued, and he may not die in the end. It is not appropriate to use the word 'murderer' now."

"That's right." Jiang Xia smiled, "Usually I'm used to it, but I can't change it all at once."

Conan didn't care about the details of the words. He touched his chin and suddenly thought of something:
"Do you think the murderer has actually been hiding in the building? Although he can escape from the window on the first floor even if he doesn't use the back door after committing the crime, no matter how he thinks about it, he doesn't need to give up the back door and go through the window—and vice versa. I thought, maybe that person did not leave. I heard that when some people feel flustered, their behavior will become extremely conservative. Compared with running away in full view at that time, maybe he chose to stay where he was, and wanted to wait until the matter was over. Then sneak away."

Although Superintendent Yasa looked at the child who was misled by Jiang Xia as a dislike, he had to feel that what he said made some sense.He thought for a while: "I remember when I first entered the door, there was a section of stairs leading down. There seems to be an underground garage here. It should be very convenient for people to hide there. Go and have a look."

……

When they arrived at the garage, the police searched cautiously for a while, but failed to find the person hiding in the basement. They only saw a car parked quietly in the corner.

——Checked the license plate number, it is not difficult to confirm that this is dead... This is the belongings of the person who fell from the building.

"There is no one in the car." Jiang Xia leaned close to the window with the sunshade film on it, and took a look in, "But there are some not-so-good things on the back seat—a pair of rain boots, and a brand new shovel. Great for digging and hiding corpses in inaccessible places."

"?"

Inspector Yasa took a closer look and found that it was true, but: "These two things are often used when tidying the garden. Don't think of murder cases when you see such tools. Their job is not for crime."

After finishing speaking, he himself was silent for a while: "..." In fact, according to the frequency of cases happening next to Jiang Xia, it seems that there is nothing wrong with this young detective thinking so...

Inspector Yasa thought as he straightened up and looked to the side.

Seeing that a few people in Tokyo really ignored his rebuttal just now, each of them showed a thoughtful expression at this time, even the little girl in the hood who looked very well-behaved was no exception-they were obviously thinking seriously about Jiang Xia's "" Digging pits to hide corpses" hypothesis.

Inspector Yasa: "..." These people in Tokyo, what kind of miserable life are they usually living in?

Thinking about how exhausted he was these days, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be a little harsh on these tourists - after two or three days, he already wanted to tie Jiang Xia to a rocket and send him back to Tokyo, but Jiang Xia and the others I experience this all the time.

Inspector Asaph: "..." London is wonderful, he will always love it here.Before, he felt that the crime rate in this place was too high, but now he only felt that an objective evaluation should be made through comparison.

……

When several people were looking for clues in the underground garage.

Mao Lilan went to a nearby small store to buy umbrellas and towels, and ran back with a bunch of things. Except for Dr. A Li who was taking notes in the hallway, everyone else was gone.

"Did they enter the building?" Mao Lilan asked Dr. Ali, and after getting an affirmative answer, she walked out of the building with a towel.I plan to wipe it off for a few people who got caught in the rain to prevent colds.

After walking through the hall, Mao Lilan realized that the building was much bigger than she had imagined, and Jiang Xia and the others didn't know which floor they went to to solve the case.

She took out her mobile phone and was about to dial to ask.But after hesitating for a moment, he stuffed the phone back into his pocket, thinking to himself:

"Detectives probably don't like to be disturbed when they are sorting out their thoughts. Well... the person we saw fell from the building when he was pushing and shoving with others on the rooftop. Jiang Xia and the others should go to the rooftop to check the situation first, after all That's the first scene."

Thinking of this, Mao Lilan stepped up the steps.

Originally planned to go all the way to the rooftop.

But when they came to the third floor, there was a sudden clanging sound in the corridor.

Maolilan was stunned, and looked towards the corridor, and saw a fire extinguisher fell out of the water room and rolled to the ground, as if it had been accidentally knocked down.

Mao Lilan: "..." Could it be that Jiang Xia and the others have finished investigating the roof and came to the third floor?
She hesitated for a moment, trotted over, and called tentatively, "Uncle Kudo? Jiang Xia? Are you in there?"

Now the time has passed zero, and normal employees have already left work.In other words, there should only be a few detectives who sneaked in to investigate in this building, and the police who walked in to investigate openly.

No one agreed to call the name of the little friend, Mao Lilan thought for a while: "Sheriff Anna? And that inspector? Is it you?"

There was still no answer in the water room.

Mao Lilan has already run to the door of the water room.

She looked in carefully, but she didn't see anyone in the room, only found that the faucet was turned on and water was rushing.

"……"Such a waste.

Although it felt a little wrong, some instinct still made her walk over quickly, trying to turn off the water.

When Mao Lilan walked towards the pool.

Behind the door, a strong man looked at her slender back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

——Now there are police officers upstairs and downstairs. It is almost impossible to escape by brute force in this environment.

After thinking about it, the only option left for him was to take a hostage and let the police let him go.

Thinking of this, Ryohei Honda couldn't help feeling a little lucky: Fortunately, the first person to come to the water room was a little girl who could be easily controlled.Even the gods seemed to be on his side.
