A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 93 The Mysterious Visitor at Night

"Let me declare that I am a minor and have just turned 17. Can I be excluded?"

... Can you not be so skinny, I said adult is just an adjective, which excludes children.

After the eyes of police officer Mumu retreated, Noah complained softly and stood within the range of the suspect.

Everyone needs to tell where they were at the time of the crime, including women, although they are theoretically adult men, but not necessarily.

"During the time of the incident, our crew members were rehearsing here, and all of them were present. After Mr. Jinya sent us the script, he never appeared again."

"How do you prove that all of you were there?"

"Officer Megure, we can prove this. We were sitting in the auditorium watching and, before Xiaolan and the others came back, Xiaoai and I saw Mr. Jinya come to the stage to deliver the script."

Police officer Mumu looked at Noah with a hippie smile angrily. As a result, his investigation came to a deadlock.

Conan's attention has been focused on Tamanosuke. Since the police came, his performance has made him suspicious.

"Too disturbing"

It feels like this person is trying to hide something, and the whole person looks a little restless.

Thinking of when Tamanosuke was rummaging for items on the table in Kinya Tetsuo's room just now, especially when he saw the computer, his face changed drastically, Conan turned his head and asked Noah in a low voice.

"When Tetsuo Kinya came to deliver the script, did he give anything else?"

"No, I remember only those few pieces of paper with the content of the script written on it."

Reminiscent of the conflict between Tetsuo Kinya and the troupe, Conan knew what Tamanosuke was looking for in the room just now.

"Officer Megure, when you searched the contents of the computer, did you find anything about the script in the computer?"

"No, we checked the computer in the room carefully, and there is nothing about it."

"Will those data be stored on the disk?"

When talking about this, Conan glanced at Tamanosuke secretly, and found that the other person's face was pale, and he guessed right, he was really looking for the disk.

"bang"

"What are you making trouble with, kid? What does the script material have to do with this case? Just leave it to me."

The uncle taught Conan a lesson, and threw him to Xiaolan's side, asking Xiaolan to watch over him strictly and avoid making trouble.

Police officer Mu Mu was still struggling with the disk in Conan's mouth, but after the uncle's voice, he skipped the matter again, and he also felt that the script had nothing to do with the case.

When Police Officer Megure asked about Tetsuo Kinya's interpersonal relationship in the crew, every member of the crew showed embarrassment and didn't know how to speak.

Noah called Police Officer Megure aside, and told about the scene he saw in the audience just now. This Kinya Tetsuo is a cancer-like existence in the entire troupe.

Hearing these words, Police Officer Mu Mu thought deeply. He separated everyone for interrogation, and focused on asking Tetsuo Kinya about his interpersonal relationship, whether he had any enemies, whether he had offended anyone, and so on.

At the end of the interrogation, looking at the pile of interpersonal situations about Tetsuo Kinya in front of him, Officer Megure had a headache.

All the group members expressed their dislike and dissatisfaction with Tetsuo Kinya in their words. Only the head of the group spoke to the point. I don't know if he said that on purpose.

The pile of information in front of me is the usual conflicts and conflicts between Tiefu Jinya and each member of the regiment. Police officer Mugure is very suspicious of how this person survived until now.

And how he stayed here so brazenly has aroused public outrage.

"Officer Mumu, it's getting late, can you let us go back first?"

"You are still a suspect and you cannot leave."

... Facing the deadly police officer Mumu, Noah didn't know what to say. He just saw Huiyuan yawning all the time and wanted to ask if he could go home.

I don't know this dead man well, so how could he be a murderer? The circle of suspects is too wide.

Helpless, Noah finally asked Xiaolan to send Huiyuan home, and stayed in the theater to wait for the case to end.

Unexpectedly, Conan insisted on staying in the end, saying that he wanted to be with him.

"To be honest, if you have any clues to investigate, your reason is just to lie to your elder sister Xiaolan."

"You know me quite well, and there are indeed doubtful candidates."

"Conan, I found that you are really straightforward and can't speak. You should say that you are afraid that I will be lonely, and you want to accompany me and make my heart warm."

...Where is your focus, shouldn't it be the murderer? Besides, I won't necessarily accompany you until you die alone.

"Are you guessing Tamanosuke?"

"You...how did you know again."

"Nonsense, I'm not blind, haven't you been staring at him tonight?"

Conan's excitement calmed down. It turned out that he had exposed himself. He thought Noah had observed it one step earlier than himself.

It's actually quite good to stay in the troupe, there is food and drink, and there is no money, but the place to sleep is not good.

"Officer Megure, I request to sleep in another room."

"What's the matter, isn't this place good? Tamanosuke said that there is only one empty room in the troupe, so you two just order it."

Noah and Conan looked at the room in front of them, and felt a little chill in their backs. They lived in the room of the dead Jinya Tetsuo.

The corpse has been carried away for inspection, but the white outline on the ground suggests that there was a corpse lying here just now.

"I'm not sleepy all of a sudden, I'm going out for a walk."

"I'll go as well."

Noah and Conan ran out of the room. The two of them felt uncomfortable in that room.

The stage was empty, surrounded by a police cordon to prevent outsiders from entering.

The two of them failed to go out in the end, and the police standing guard outside the theater were instructed by Officer Megure not to let them go out.

Lying in Jinya Tefu's room, the two cheered up and chatted, and finally couldn't help lying on the bed and fell asleep unconsciously.

When they woke up again, they were startled awake by a scream. They hurried out of the room and followed the crowd to the stage.

It was still Xiaohui, she was crying loudly with tears at this time, and her brother Tamanosuke was beaten on the stage.

Conan's face changed drastically, and he ran to Tamanosuke in a few steps, touched Tamanosuke who was still showing signs of life, and hurriedly called an ambulance.

Along with the ambulance came the serious-looking police officer Megure. Tamanosuke was taken away by the ambulance, and Xiaohui followed to take care of her brother. Before leaving, she asked Conan to help her find the murderer.

"My guess is wrong. The murderer is not him, but someone else, and the murderer must be among these group members."

Conan and Noah were discussing here, and Police Officer Mu Mu was interrogating the people who came there, and he was disappointed again.

The trouble this time was that none of them had an alibi, and they were all sleeping in the room, and no one could prove that what they said was true or false.

The interrogation failed, so Police Officer Mu Mu asked people to go back to his room and strictly prohibited going out at will, and reported to the police if something happened.

"Did you two notice it at night. Or heard something?"

Police officer Mumu looked at Noah and Conan seriously, they could still trust them, they didn't let Noah go back because they were afraid of gossip.

The two frowned tightly, recalling what happened last night. Conan shook his head first and said that he hadn't found anything. Noah thought for a long time and came up with a clue.

"I'm a light sleeper. Last night, I vaguely heard footsteps ringing in my ears. It seemed that someone had come to our house. Before I woke up, the sound disappeared."

Conan and Police Officer Megure were shaken. This is a very crucial clue. There may be something the other party needs in the room of Tetsuo Kinya.

Conan immediately thought of the loss of the script material, whether it has not been taken away by the murderer, but has been hidden by Tetsuo Konya.

It is true that someone came to the room last night, but the other party did not enter the room, but was on the roof, and did not enter the room.

At that time, I was preparing to have an impromptu performance with the other party, the conversation between Fu Hongxue and Yan Nanfei, to see if the other party could cooperate with me to fulfill this wish, but before I could open my mouth, I ran away.

Under the strict surveillance of the police, no more misfortunes happened at night, which made Officer Megure thankful that his efforts were not wasted.

Regarding the news of the visitor in Noah's room, he did not make a big announcement, and sent someone to secretly check whether there were any fingerprints or footprints left by the visitor, or whether there were any traces of hair falling out.

The result was obvious. No one was busy in the house, so how could there be any evidence left? Noah didn't tell Police Officer Mumu about the person on the roof.

Since this person chose to come at night, he was able to climb to the roof without making a sound, which shows that he is extremely confident in his own strength and will not leave any traces. It is useless to tell him.
