Conan's Landing Full Reputation
Chapter 148
The warehouse must have been cleaned recently, and it looked unusually clean. After the heavy warehouse door was opened, the morning sun shone into the room, allowing people to see the fine dust flying in the air.
The brown pottery was placed on the wooden shelf. Unlike what Shi Mo Mi imagined, Tsuchiya Mashiko was busy sorting in the warehouse. She didn't see any figures at first glance, only a few stacked pottery placed on the ground in the middle of the warehouse.
Shi Mo Mi looked up along the position where the pottery was placed. There was a rope tied to the solid wood beam, and the other end of the rope extended to the wooden shelf on the side.
[I seem to... bump into someone's murder plan. ]
Shi Mo Mi looked at Tsuchiya Mashiko on the top of the shelf with a knot around her neck with a headache.
If Tsuchiya Mashiko didn't sleep so well, she would fall down and die if she turned over. The top beam of this warehouse is very high. With the weight of an adult, swinging down with a rope on her head, she would definitely die on the spot.
This is similar to the plot of twisting the neck to the right that often appears in movies and TV dramas. After twisting the neck, it will cause cervical fractures or joint dislocations, which will cause spinal cord damage or transverse section in the spinal canal.
If the upper cervical vertebrae are dislocated, resulting in spinal cord injury, it will basically cause death on the spot. If the lower cervical vertebrae are sprained, resulting in fractures and dislocations, it may cause high paraplegia. (Either is very dangerous, don't try it!)
If Tsuchiya Mashiko falls, even if the latter situation occurs, she will die from suffocation later.
Shi Mo Mi doesn't understand. When he and Maori Kogoro are present, someone still insists on committing a crime. Is he a peerless gambler? He has to bet that the detective present will not see through his tricks?
But everyone knows that gambling dogs gamble dogs, gambling dogs, gambling to the end with nothing, so many cases have not made these people converge, which is also outrageous.
Shi Mo Mi put aside the thoughts in his mind, took photos as evidence, put on gloves and took Tsuchiya Mashiko down from the top of the shelf, but did not take her far away, but put her on the floor.
Tsuchiya Mashiko was set up, and it was most likely that there was something wrong with her. After putting her down, Shi Mo Mi gave up the idea of going out for exercise and sat in the corridor waiting for Conan to get up.
I think Conan will like this part of finding the murderer. When no one is in trouble, Shi Mo Mi does not want to waste time participating in the battle of wits and courage between the criminal and the detective.
It was more than nine o'clock, and Shi Mo Mi even solved breakfast by himself, and then he saw that everyone who had been making trouble all night got up one after another.
Kikuemon got up a little earlier, but did not see Tsuchiya Mashiko. This was something that Tsuchiya Mashiko had never done in her many years of managing the family. Because she needs to be responsible for breakfast at home, not to mention that there are guests now.
"Otani! Go find where Mashiko is! Is she still sleeping?"
Kikuemon skillfully directed his youngest apprentice to look for her, but of course he didn't find her. Who would have thought that she would be in the warehouse so early in the morning?
Seto proposed to call Tsuchiya Mashiko, but of course no one answered. He was about to say something when he saw Tsuchiya Mashiko coming through the courtyard door.
Tsuchiya Mashiko looked at the people present in silence, but did not reveal the scene she saw in the warehouse when she woke up.
Kikuemon in the room saw Tsuchiya Mashiko appear and urged her to prepare breakfast.
Tsuchiya Mashiko said nothing and obediently left to prepare breakfast. Shi Mo Mi saw Conan get up and handed him the photo taken by the Polaroid.
"What is this?"
Conan took the photo in confusion, and his face suddenly became ugly.
Shi Mo Mi motioned him to sit next to him: "I got up early in the morning and successfully rescued her, but this method was obviously intended to kill her."
"Did you see who designed this mechanism?"
"If I saw it, would I still give you the photo? I would just call the police, okay?"
Conan thought for a while: "They deliberately used this method to make it look like Tsuchiya Mashiko committed suicide. Basically, it was done by these people in the mansion..."
"Maybe this is a proof question?"
"How do you say it?"
"Seeing Tsuchiya Mashiko appear intact, Seto was shocked."
Conan also saw Seto's very unusual behavior at the time, but he didn't react so much. Now he has come to his senses. It is indeed very suspicious.
Shi Mo Mi plans to tell Kikuemon about this matter after Conan finds evidence, and then see how this master handles it.
In fact, even if Shi Mo Mi rescued Tsuchiya Mashiko, Seto, who was suspected of being a criminal, was not innocent. According to Chinese law, he was definitely guilty of attempted murder. After all, Seto had already started to commit the crime, but due to something beyond Seto's will,The reason was not successful, which is an attempted crime, and the sentencing will be considered to be mitigated.
The lady on Valentine's Day before was different. Before she poisoned, she gave up because of Shi Mo Mi's persuasion, which was a crime termination. Even if someone reported it later, the crime termination would most likely exempt her from punishment.
Shi Mo Mi is not a law student. She has not studied the laws of Japan in detail, nor can she make fireballs. But she also knows that as long as the murder plan is implemented, it will be a public prosecution case. If Kikuemon tries to cover up his apprentice at that time, Conan will also report him.
I just don't know... why did Tsuchiya Mashiko not say that someone wanted to kill her.
Conan also discovered this problem: "You didn't bring her back after you rescued her, right? She didn't say anything just now, which is also very strange!"
"Do you remember that on the way here, I discussed with you what case Kikuemon wanted to entrust to your uncle?"
"Remember, you said that there are many pottery claimed to be Kikuemon's works that have flowed into the market recently."
"I guess it was sold by Tsuchiya Mashiko. She is responsible for the appreciation of the works of everyone in this family. The pottery that is not pleasing to the eye will be smashed directly. If it is not actually smashed, but sold, do you think everyone will believe that this is Kikuemon's new work?"
"... Definitely believe it."
The two were still sitting in the corridor discussing in a low voice. Xiaolan came out from behind and patted the shoulders of the two: "What are you two discussing? Tsuchiya Madam has prepared breakfast, come and eat it quickly."
Shi Mo Mi was not scared at all: "I'm telling him a story."
Conan was almost scared away by Xiaolan just now, and hurriedly lied to Shi Mo Mi: "Yes, yes, sister Mo Mi is telling me a story!"
Xiaolan looked at Conan suspiciously: "You two are really close."
Shi Mo Mi stood up and shrugged: "Maybe, let's go and eat."
——————————————
Conan finished his breakfast almost at the speed of light, and ran to the warehouse to find clues. After comparing the place where Tsuchiya Mashiko was lying at the time, he quickly found a special pottery. It was a pottery with an internal interlayer, and the upper and lower parts were glued together. Conan handed the pottery to Shi Mo Mi, and turned around and happened to see Kikuemon who came to the warehouse.
Kikuemon was old, but he was still a relatively kind elder. He saw Shi Mo Mi and Conan carrying a ladder to look through the pottery in the warehouse, and he was not angry.
"Hurry up and come down. This is not a place for you to play. It will be too dangerous if you fall down... What is this rope in the middle for?"
Since Tsuchiya Mashiko couldn't untie the rope at the top, she just untied the knot at the bottom to make the scene look less like a suicide scene. So at this time, there was still a rope hanging from the top, and Kikuemon was very confused when he saw it.
Shi Mo Mi roughly explained to him why there was this rope, and then showed Kikuemon the photos taken in the morning.
Fortunately, although Kikuemon was old, he didn't have any heart disease, otherwise Shi Mo Mi was worried that he would not be able to catch his breath after listening to the two of them and fall in front of them.
"You mean, the person who made this pottery designed this murder method?"
Kikuemon looked much older in an instant. He saw at a glance that the special pottery in Shi Mo Mi's hand was made by his favorite apprentice Seto. If Shi Mo Mi hadn't saved Tsuchiya Mashiko in the morning, Tsuchiya Mashiko would have been a corpse now!
"Can you tell who made this pottery?"
"Of course I can..." Kikuemon pondered for a while, "Doctor Shi, can you let me handle this matter?"
Toki Momi handed the pottery to the old man and watched him walk out with his old steps, not very steady.
Conan sat on the escalator: "How do you think he will deal with it?"
"Who knows..."
Kikuemon pulled Seto into the room and closed the door to talk for a long time before opening the door and coming out.
Never seen such a serious expression on the master's face, the other two apprentices were not interested in other things, and sat at the door the whole time, and did not dare to move until the two came out.
Maori, who had not left yet, was arranged to wait in other rooms later. After waiting for a long time for Kikuemon to come out, he heard the old man asking him.
"Please trouble Detective Maori, take my useless apprentice to surrender..."
Maori looked puzzled: I just got up a little late, how come it has come to the point of taking people to surrender, what happened?
The most puzzled person was Tsuchiya Mashiko. When she was woken up by the phone ringing, she found herself lying on the floor of the warehouse with a hanging knot next to her. Even the clay pottery she was standing on was broken.The pottery was all set up.
She was stunned by what she saw. Her first reaction was that she was sleepwalking. Then she ran to the warehouse to set up all these messy things and fell asleep on the floor again. But soon she realized that something was wrong. She was not wearing shoes and her feet were not dirty. If this could be explained by coincidence, the rope was very unreasonable.
Because! She couldn't reach the beam at all and had no way to tie the rope up!
After a little thought, she thought of the recent situation. She was worried that Kikuemon was in poor health and would announce that she would no longer make pottery. She tried to sell more pottery to fill her coffers during Kikuemon's twilight, so she "smashed" a lot of pottery of three apprentices.
Could it be that one of them wanted to threaten her to smash less of their works? After all, no works means no income. Even if the price of the apprentice's works is not as high as Kikuemon's, it is still a considerable income.
Tsuchiya Mashiko thought so, and finally because she was in the wrong, she didn't say anything, and even deliberately untied the knot under the rope and moved the pottery on the ground.
What was the result? Kikuemon sent her away on the pretext that there was no food at home. When she returned home, she saw the police waiting at the door.
The police said: "Hello, you are Tsuchiya Mashiko, right? We are police officers from the Second Investigation Division. Now we suspect that you are related to a huge fraud case! Please cooperate with our investigation!"
Tsuchiya Mashiko: ? ? ? ? ? What's going on? Why did I go to buy vegetables and get arrested?
Seto, who honestly confessed his attempted murder in the police station and even broke out other major cases to seek leniency: Yes, what's going on?
Kikuemon, who sent his apprentice to surrender and reported by the way: I'm not here.
After the matter came to an end, several people went back to their homes.
A few days later, Conan came to Shi Mo Mi with a small package: "Mo Mi, have you received the package sent by Master Kikuemon?"
Shi Mo Mi was moving the position of the system's delicate orchid to avoid too much sun, thinking it was "too hot". After all, Tokyo's geographical location is still too far north, and flowers and plants that can grow freely in the south will inevitably "not adapt to the local climate" here. Especially the system's new favorite orchid, one will die if you don't pay attention, and everyone will see it.
Because Conan came, the system couldn't let those strange machines come out to help move, but it couldn't leave it alone. What could Shi Mo Mi do? He could only move the flowers by himself.
"I don't have time to look at it. These flowers have to be moved. The things I received are all at the door. You can go and see it yourself."
Conan didn't act pretentiously. Anyway, his small arms and legs couldn't share the burden with Shi Mo Mi. Those were flower pots half as high as his. He went straight to see the package at the door.
"Really... it's not the same thing as mine?"
Shi Mo Mi had just moved two pots and felt that he had enough exercise for the day: "You can open it and take a look, so what is yours?"
"Master Kikuemon's thank-you gift, the same cup that my uncle took away... he said it was a thank-you gift for me."
"Really... 10 million items are sent as wholesale?"
Shi Mo Mi wiped his hands and came to Conan to watch. The pottery in the package was really one of the cups in the set. The difference from Conan's was that Shi Mo Mi's was inside. The attached letter was longer.
Perhaps because Conan was a child, his letter simply stated that this was a thank-you gift for him.
And Shi Mo Mi's letter explained the reason for sending this cup in a more concise way.
First, it was to thank Shi Mo Mi for saving Tsuchiya Mashiko and preventing Seto from really killing someone; second, it gave Seto the opportunity to surrender. So he sent a thank-you gift to the two children.
Shi Mo Mi scratched his head: "I understand the reason, but isn't this thank-you gift too expensive..."
Conan thought of the Ferrari F40 for some reason and doubted Shi Mo Mi's words.
But he didn't know that Shi Mo Mi bought it for zero yuan...
