Ke Xue's Kogoro

Chapter 188 Another Corpse

Conan also suffered from a detective's occupational disease, so he wanted to go up to investigate the corpse, but Kogoro grabbed him firmly.

Conan was very puzzled, and saw Kogoro winking at him.Conan looked into the crowd, two plainclothes lined up the crowd, and saw Hattori Heizo with a serious expression and narrowed eyes coming in.

Hattori Heizo didn't say much, he grabbed Hattori by the back collar and lifted him up.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

"That's what our police do."

Hattori was not convinced, a suspect was killed in front of him, he couldn't bear it.

"But I can find out the real culprit, give me a little more time."

Who is Hattori Heizo?The head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, can he give you a little time for a detective?Not even if you are his son.

Hattori Heizo punched out with a right uppercut, and Kogoro couldn't help but tsk-tsk, good guy, he sent Hattori three meters away with one punch.He didn't dare to hit Conan so hard himself.

Hattori Heizo opened one eye, calmly: "Don't interfere with the work of the police, because your meddling has made these policemen lose their autonomy. Don't you feel ashamed to sit and watch a person die in front of your eyes?"

He pointed at Hattori with one hand: "You, get out of here! They gave you the status of a high school student detective for my sake. Don't you know how much money you have?"

Hattori sat on the ground, his pupils were dilated, and he seemed to be hit hard.

Kogoro let go of Conan, thinking that at this time, it would be better to let good engine oil go up to comfort him.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not so tense, Kogoro walked to the corpse.

Hattori Heizo glanced at Kogoro, but did not stop him from coming forward.He asked, "Otaki, did you find anything?"

Otaki replied: "There are slight burns on the body, and there are marks on the back of the head. According to Toshiaki Fukushima, who happened to pass the bridge just now, he saw the deceased take out a lighter on the bridge and set himself on fire, and then jumped out of the bridge. fell into the river."

Otaki pointed to the bridge and said, "I think the deceased may have died after hitting the back of his head against a stone pier of the bridge. And when we arrived at the scene, we also saw the deceased floating on the water, with the clothes on his back burning blazingly."

Fukushima Toshiaki was guarded by two policemen, because he just ran away after seeing the death of the deceased, and was arrested by the police.I thought it was him who did it, but when I asked, I realized that he was just a witness.

However, the statement that the deceased committed suicide cannot be completely accepted, because there is no reason at all.

Kogoro looked at Hattori Heizo, and heard him say: "You can watch it, but don't say anything, we have our own arrangements."

So Kogoro went forward to check, and Hattori Heizo said from behind: "If it is a suicide, then arrange two policemen to investigate and collect evidence at the scene. Our police force does not have such a leisurely police force to handle such cases."

Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginshiro left the scene very quickly. An executive like him doesn't have a moment's spare time.

After knowing that it was a suicide, the melon-eaters at the scene also left the scene one after another, leaving Otaki and a few policemen.Toshiaki Fukushima was taken to the police station for a record.

"It doesn't look like suicide at all."

Hattori was naturally not the kind of person to listen to persuasion, he squatted next to the corpse to inspect the corpse regardless of getting wet all over his body.

Kogoro said: "There is no trace of burnt hair. According to Toshiaki Fukushima, the deceased used a lighter to ignite himself, and fell into the water while the whole body was burning. This is totally unreasonable."

Conan also found this suspicious point: "Yes, and the front and sides of the clothes have no burnt marks, only the back, which is the part exposed to the water, has been burned, which is very suspicious."

Hattori said to Otaki: "Officer Otaki, let the police investigate whether there is blood on those stone piers. If not, I suspect that the deceased was killed by someone hitting the back of the head with a blunt object. Throw her into the river and let her float on the ground." on the water, and then set fire to her body."

Otaki didn't understand. He said: "But the testimony provided by Fukushima Toshiaki said that he saw the deceased set himself on fire with a lighter and then fell into the water. I don't think he has any reason to lie to us."

Hattori lifted the deceased's jacket and found three traces of the same shape. He said: "I think the murderer killed the deceased, and then performed a scene of igniting himself in front of Toshiaki Fukushima before jumping into the water. Anyway. It's so dark and raining here, Toshiaki Fukushima didn't even see who the person with the burnt body was."

Conan said: "That's right, look at the row of marks on the corpse. It is obvious that the blood of the deceased was sprayed on the murderer, and then printed back. And the murderer was wearing a piece of clothing with a zipper."

Kogoro made a conclusion: "So, the murderer should appear in front of us again in a short time as an alibi. Therefore, it is very likely that he is wearing a diving suit, so that he will not burn his hair after ignition. As long as Put on the hat of the trench coat, no one will be able to recognize him from a distance."

Otaki was still a little confused, but still arranged for people to check the stone pier.

"Did something happen here?"

Urouya Yuhiro and Risaka Shigehiko came over, and Urouya Yuhiro asked, "I saw a lot of people around here just now, and there are also police."

Otaki stepped forward and asked, "Ms. Katagiri died just now, and it was by this river. Excuse me, after you two separated from Ms. Katagiri, where did you go and what are you doing?"

When the two heard the news of Katagiri Maho's death, their surprised expressions did not seem to be fake. Kogoro felt that the two had superb acting skills.

Uriya Arihiro looked like he had nothing to do with himself, and he replied, "I was eating at a restaurant just now."

Risaka Shigehiko also said: "I am also eating, but we are not in a restaurant."

Otaki no longer has any subordinates at hand, so after writing down the restaurant where the two had dinner, he planned to check it out later.

"Officer, we found a photo on Miss Katagiri's body."

Several people leaned over to take a look. In the photo, Maho Katagiri and Yusi Kato were recognizable, and the other three people did not appear in this tour group.

Otaki showed the photo to Izaya Yuhiro and Risaka Shigehiko, and asked, "Do you know who these people are in the photo?"

Urihiro Izaya thought for a while, and said, "This big man is called Hirano Yoshito, and he is the initiator of this tour group. Not only that, but he also came up with the role-playing game we played."

Risaka Shigehiko also said: "That's right, it's a pity that this time he suddenly said that there was something urgent before coming, so he didn't come."

Isoya said pointedly: "It can be said that the trip where the two people died this time was initiated by Hirano. If the murderer intends to use this tour group to kill people, then he has to ask Hirano what happened. said."
