Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 850 The Suspicious Boss Added a Request for a Monthly Ticket ( )
Conan also stared at the newcomer at the door, and was stunned for a moment: ...Why is it Toru Amuro? ?

Although Jiang Xia did say that Boss Amuro has the habit of working everywhere, it is not surprising that he suddenly became a courier at this time.

...But thinking about it this way, Conan found that, from another perspective, maybe this "working around" is very problematic in the first place? ——This allows Toru Amuro to reasonably appear wherever he wants, to collect information, or to reduce suspicion.

The suspicious Miss Takenaka, plus Jiang Xia's suspicious boss...

Conan's mind was spinning, and he began to analyze and arrange countless possible situations.

……

On the other side, Toru Amuro followed the policeman into the living room.

"I heard that here..." In the middle of speaking, his eyes suddenly froze, and he saw Jiang Xia who was dozing off in the corner.

Amuro paused for a moment before finishing the rest of the sentence: "...Is there a murder?"

"Huh? It's you, what a coincidence." Mumu Police Department greeted him.

Of course he remembered this mixed-race brother - if he remembered correctly, Toru Amuro was also a private detective, and the boss of the detective agency where Jiang Xia worked.It's just that this detective doesn't seem to like his job, and he doesn't know what he's busy with all day long... But it's understandable when you think about it. With Jiang Xia, an employee who solves cases quickly and is very active in accepting commissions, which boss is willing to personally go to battle?I will definitely use my free time to develop my hobbies.

...Hiss, but, so to speak, this is actually an unscrupulous boss who exploits underage detectives.

Thinking of this, the Meguro Police Department paused slightly in their steps towards Toru Amuro.

He cleared his throat and did not continue the greeting:

"As you can see, unfortunately, a murder happened here..."

……

Meguro Police Department briefly described the general case.

Then I asked Toru Amuro: "About what time did you come here? Is there anything unusual around you?...Uh, brother Amuro?"

"Huh?" Amuro regained his senses.

He did notice some abnormalities, for example, Jiang Xia, who was always very energetic at the scene of the crime, was hiding in a corner and sleeping at this time.

Another example is that in this case, Jiang Xia and his acquaintances...

Although he felt that the state of the staff was a bit strange, Toru Amuro took a brief look and found that Jiang Xia was breathing steadily and seemed to be sleeping normally, and there were many policemen around, so nothing would happen for a while.

Toru Amuro held an instinct of "don't disturb things that shouldn't be disturbed" that he couldn't explain clearly, and didn't go to wake Jiang Xia up, and didn't even look over there, and quickly focused on the case.

When Mumu Police Department spoke just now, although he was thinking about other things.

But as an intelligence officer who often has to multitask, Amuro Toru recalled for a while, and quickly remembered what the Megure Police Department said just now.

"I came here at about 08:30 in the evening." Toru Amuro found out the records made at work.

Then he glanced at the group photo of the two cohabitants on the bookshelf in the living room, and then at Sayuri Shimamura with an ugly face, "The recipient of the package is Sayuri Shimamura, but when I came to deliver the courier, the door opened It was a lady with long hair. Miss Shimamura was not around, so she signed for the package on her behalf. As for the abnormality..."

Amuro glanced at some evidence bags in the corner, then looked at the traces on the table used to fix the evidence, thought for a moment, and seemed to think of something: "I remember when I signed for the receipt, the person who signed for it couldn't find the seal, so it was For the words signed with a pen, the pen could not write at first, so I unscrewed it for her to look at the refill, and found that there was almost no ink in it, and I flicked it a few times before writing. Remember that after signing, she I casually put the pen on the shoe cabinet next to it, then closed the door with the package and entered the house, but now it seems... that pen doesn't seem to be there?"

According to Amuro Toru's experience, any changes on the scene may have important reasons behind them.

He didn't have the slightest idea of ​​hiding anything, he just wanted to help the police solve the case as soon as possible - although he had nothing else to do tonight, he had to get up early tomorrow, and he didn't want to stay up late.

"...pen?" Moori Kogoro, who was pressed by some kind of switch by Jiang Xia, obviously thought of something at this moment.

Subconsciously, he touched his pocket and took out a pen.

Seeing Kogoro Mori's movements, Toru Amuro raised his eyebrows: "That's right, that's the pen...Why is it on you?"

"..."

Mori Kogoro was silent for a long time, a pair of small eyes that were no longer salty fish were shining with thoughtful light.

After a while, he looked at Saiduri Shimamura, who still had no intention of surrendering herself, gritted her teeth and wanted to resist until the last moment, and sighed: "When Miss Kazumi was hit by the knife and fell to the ground, did you knock off a pen, and you put it on?" picked it up?"

"..."

At the beginning, when Toru Amuro mentioned that pen, Sayuri Shimamura didn't realize the significance of its existence.

But now, hearing that Kogoro Moori guessed the situation at the scene, plus a little knowledge of criminal investigation that he learned incidentally while watching the news...

Sayuri Shimamura's face completely lost all color.

——Mori Kogoro guessed right.

When Kazumi was stabbed by her, he struggled for a while.Saiduri Shimamura suppressed her struggle in a panic at that time - at that time, when the deceased fell to the ground, he hit the shelf and knocked the pen that was used to sign for the receipt just now to the ground.

After all, Sayuri Shimamura had killed someone for the first time, and it was an acquaintance who had lived with her day and night. Even if she had a plan and enough determination, she still panicked when she killed.

At that time, when she found a pen falling on the ground, Saiduri Shimamura thought it had fallen from her body. In order not to leave any relevant traces of herself at the scene of the crime, she instinctively picked up the pen and fled away.

Unexpectedly, the pen was accidentally dropped in the car and picked up by Kogoro Mouri.

And according to what the courier said just now, now, the pen has her, the deceased, and the courier's fingerprints on it at the same time, and her fingerprints are at the end, covering the others... This means that she was at 08:30 Later, she did come to this room, and she took the alibi made by Mori Kogoro, which was broken by physical evidence.

In addition, the police reacted so quickly, the bloody clothes that were worn during the murder, the cans that drugged Kogoro Mouri...Although they have been discarded, they may not have drifted too far.

this way...

……

Sayuri Shimamura finally gave up her stubborn resistance.

She slumped to the side and sat slumped on the dining chair beside her: "It's her...it's her who threatened me! A year ago, my company imported a batch of contraband. After Hemei knew about it, I want to give her a regular share. If I refuse, she will report to the bank she works for and stop financing our company...I am still so young, I can't be picked up by this vampire for the rest of my life! So..."
