Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin

"So when the victim was injured, there shouldn't be anyone else in the house?" Officer Memu lowered his head in confusion, thinking.

If this is really the case, then there should have been only Conan and his five children in the house at that time, as well as the victims, Dr. Agasa and Imaguchi.

But no matter which one of them, there should be no conflict with the deceased, right?

"Yes." Dr. A Li nodded doubtfully after saying that. If there were really only a few of them, how did Qiu Shui get injured?

It's impossible for Conan and the others to be children. He brought Imaguchi here halfway, and he didn't know Qiu Shui before, so it's impossible.

Then the only one with the possibility is himself, right?

Officer Megure also looked at Dr. Agasa. The air was a little quiet for a while. Ayumi and the others quickly reacted and quickly stood in front of the doctor and said.

"It can't be the Doctor's. The Doctor has a very good relationship with Aunt Qiushui, and the Doctor has no reason to kill anyone." Ayumi said quickly.

"Yes! The doctor has been with us all afternoon, and there is no time to commit crimes." Mitsuhiko also quickly explained.

"Yeah, it's impossible for a doctor to kill anyone." Yuantai nodded.

Looking at Ayumi and the others who were frantically proving Dr. Agasa's innocence, Officer Megure sighed.

"I know, I'm just a little confused."

If it is really Dr. Ali who kills emotionally, he is so fat that he will definitely not be able to catch up with the victim. And if it had been premeditated, the victim should not be as simple as being injured. Dr. Ali had many opportunities to make the victim become a deceased person.

That's why he was confused. If there was no ninth person in the room, how did the victim get injured? Could it be an accident? However, nothing was found at the scene that could have caused the victim's injuries.

"Did anyone leave the house before we came?" Officer Megure asked.

"No, after Aunt Qiushui was injured, I asked Yuanta and the others to watch the door. No one went out. The wall around the house is very high, and it is impossible for anyone to climb over." Conan shook his head.

"Takagi, please have someone search the entire house and every corner of the yard immediately to see if there is any place where someone can hide."

"Yes, Officer Megure!" Officer Takagi nodded.

"Now, tell me, where were you and what were you doing when the incident happened?" Officer Megure looked at Imaguchi and the others.

"After dinner in the afternoon, Conan and I stayed in the collection room on the second floor doing homework. I was painting a wooden sculpture named the sun. We didn't run out until we heard the sound on the third floor." Bu. Mei poked her chin, thought for a while, and nodded.

"Sound? What sound?" Officer Megure caught the suspicion.

"Well, there was a muffled sound, but the sound was quite loud, as if something had fallen. We called Aunt Qiushui but no one answered, so we ran up." Ayumi didn't know how to describe it for a while, but the sound was anyway The rather abnormal kind.

"I was taking pictures of the wood carvings in the collection room. I was quite serious at the time, so I didn't notice the sound until later. After I followed Conan and the others and ran out, I realized that something had happened to Aunt Qiushui." Mitsuhiko shook his head, because Aunt Qiushui gave For him, he particularly liked the mask. So he thought about completing this assignment well, and he was very focused when taking pictures, and didn't find anything.

Therefore, Mitsuhiko felt depressed and guilty for a while, as he couldn't do anything to help.

"Because these children have to hand in their homework, and some of the wood carvings are relatively expensive and large, so I have been helping them put things into shape upstairs..." Dr. A Li said.

……

"After I finished eating, I felt a little tired, so I leaned on a chair on the first floor to rest. Then when I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly heard a noise upstairs. I thought something was wrong and ran up. I met Conan and the others. I ran upstairs, and I also ran to the third floor. I was the first to see Ms. Akita.

The door was not closed at that time, but open. Ms. Akita was lying on the ground bleeding from her head and had fallen into a coma. I did not see other people or the murder weapon. "Imagining the memory of what happened just now.

"Then did you hear any noises on the first floor? Did anyone come in?" Officer Meguchi looked at Imaguchi seriously, hoping he could provide some clues, but Imaguchi shook his head.

"This house is actually relatively quiet. You can hear any sound, especially the door. There will be a sound when it is opened and closed. So if someone comes in, it is impossible for me to hear nothing."

"So that's it." Officer Memu nodded slightly, walked to the door and tried it. Sure enough, there was a sound when the door opened and closed. Although it was not loud, it was still very obvious if it was quiet.

"Officer Megure, I have already investigated. There is no one in all the rooms in this house. Most of the rooms are filled with wood carvings, and many rooms have been opened. There is no place to hide." Officer Takagi returned. , but brought bad news.

"Search carefully and at least find out what injured the victim. By the way, how is Ms. Akita?"

"It is not life-threatening, but she is still in a coma due to concussion. The hospital said that she will not wake up until at least tomorrow, and she may also suffer from amnesia after waking up.

But the time of the injury has been known. The time of the injury was about an hour and a half ago, which is within ten to 20 minutes before Dr. Ali called the police. The appearance of the wound can be inferred that the murder weapon was a stick-shaped object, which did not exist. Possibility of surprise. "Officer Takagi said that the victim's back was facing up when he fell to the ground due to injuries. If he accidentally slipped and hit, he should have been facing down.

No items that might have fallen and injured the victim were found at the scene.

"In that case, let's find the murder weapon and increase the investigation of this house."

"Yes!"

Imaguchi watched the police officers checking back and forth in the room, as well as Conan and the others who were carefully searching for clues left by the murderer in the room on the third floor, and then they also started to search.

Although he did not have the quick observation skills of Conan and others, his memory was still good. Imaguchi looked at the various wood carvings on the first floor. They were all in their original positions and had not been moved.

Then he walked to the second floor. In the collection room on the second floor, many things had been moved because Conan and the others were doing homework.

But the most conspicuous thing among them is that the wooden pillar that was originally placed on the table is no longer in place at this time.

Based on his own memory, Imaguchi found roughly all the wood carvings in the room. The number was correct, except for the wooden pillars that he couldn't find.

"Doctor, did you touch the wooden block when you took the photo?" Imaguchi patted Dr. Agasa's shoulder heartily.

"Mudunzi, are you talking about Qiu Shui's new work? That one was so heavy, so big, and looked very ordinary, so we didn't touch it. What's wrong?" Dr. A Li frowned. Could it be that there was something wrong with that work? Yet?

"I can't find that wooden block. It's not in the collection room. Was it there when you left?" Imaguchi looked at Dr. Agasa seriously.

Dr. A Li also became serious at this time and nodded.

"Yes, that work is very eye-catching, and it takes up half of the table. It's hard not to notice."

Dr. Agasa and Imaguchi have realized at this time that the problem seems to lie in Akita Shusui's new work.

The two found Officer Megu and told him about the situation, and Officer Megu called a police officer seriously.

"Did you find a piece of wood in the room? It looks like a tree stump."

"No, except for the room where the materials are stored, there are carved things everywhere else."

"Do you have any photos of that new work of Mudunzi?" Officer Megure looked at the two of them.

Imaguchi shook his head inwardly, he did not take any pictures.

"Let me take a look." Dr. A Li was a little hesitant. None of them specifically took photos of the new work, and it may have appeared in other photos.

After calling Conan and the others, Dr. Ari told them what happened, and then Mitsuhiko and the others turned on their cameras.

The photos on Xiaoai’s mobile phone are all full-screen wood carvings, with no other unnecessary parts.

But Mitsuhiko found a picture of half a wooden block in a corner, but it was too small and there was no way to see it.

Except for the two of them, everyone else was either preparing to paint or do crafts, and none of them recorded the wooden pillars.

Officer Memu felt a little difficult for a while. After all, the wooden block in the photo was really small. It only occupied a corner of the photo. He didn't even know how big it was, let alone other details.

"Why don't I give it a try!" Imaguchi suddenly said.

"?"

"Imaguchi, did you take any pictures?"

"No, I'll try to see if I can draw it. I still remember it." Imaguchi shook his head, but he felt a little guilty, "It's just that my drawing may not look good."

"It's okay, as long as you can draw clearly." Officer Megure breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head.

"it is good."

Imaguchi took a tracing pen and sketched the shape of the wooden pile on the white paper. It really looked like an ordinary log.

Seven minutes later, Officer Memu held the fresh painting in his hand and looked at it carefully. The painting was indeed quite clear.

"This looks like just ordinary wood. Is this also a work?" Officer Takagi scratched his head in confusion. This is just carving tree patterns on a piece of wood.

After seeing Officer Megure's eyes, Officer Takagi closed his mouth.

"Although it looks relatively ordinary, its price should be very high. It seems to be a very famous work recently." Imaguchi said while looking at Dr. Agasa.

Dr. A Li nodded.
