Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin

Officer Takagi, who was busy, suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. When he turned around, he found that it was Imaguchi Kokoro and the others.

"What's wrong, Imaguchi, what's wrong with you?" Officer Takagi looked at Imaguchi's heart in confusion.

"I seem to have found the murder weapon used by the murderer." Imaguchi handed the magazine he was holding to Officer Takagi, "Before the case happened, I had read this magazine, and there were several pages missing from the magazine. , and when I just looked at it again, I found that there were no missing pages in the magazine. Moreover, the fallen pages still smelled of almonds. I suspected that the murderer used this magazine to poison."

Officer Takagi took the magazine with a serious face and flipped it through with his hand. Sure enough, he found that several pages were loose and smelled of almonds.

Reaching out to summon a police officer, Officer Takagi handed him the magazine in his hand and asked him to examine the magazine.

Conan, who was standing not far away with his head down and thinking about something, happened to hear Imaguchi's words. His eyes lit up and he immediately ran over and carefully observed the magazine in Officer Takagi's hand.

This length, height...

"Brother Imaguchi, how many pages have been lost in this magazine?" Conan raised his head and asked.

"There are about six or seven pages in total!" Imaguchi thought for a moment and said. He didn't pay much attention to the observation at the time, but it should be about this number.

A smile appeared on Conan's lips. He finally found the murderer's poisoning tool. It turned out to be this!

But who is the murderer? Conan glanced at the museum employees standing over there.

One is Doi Toshikatsu, the rival of the deceased Okawa Ku. The two are in a competitive relationship and both want to become the deputy director. Because of the deceased's personality, he did not think highly of Doi Toshikatsu, and his words were often sarcastic, so the relationship was not particularly harmonious.

According to him, when the deceased died, he and another employee Ueno were discussing what to do next at the museum.

Ueno was an ordinary employee in the art museum. Because he came late and was not proficient in doing things, he was often lectured by the deceased. However, his personality was dull, so the two had no dispute.

The current director of the art museum, Furuta Yoshiro, was the deceased's boss. He had just been promoted from deputy director to director not long ago. The deceased did not respect him very much and was usually rather dismissive, and the two were still love rivals.

The curator's wife was the deceased's previous girlfriend. Because of this incident, the two had a fight for a long time.

The fourth employee is the curator's wife, Furuta Riko. She is a guide in the art museum. She ate with the curator in the cafeteria at the time of the incident, as evidenced by the cafeteria staff.

The fifth employee, Lin Youmazi, a cleaning staff member, was resting in the rest room when the incident occurred. No one can prove it, but surveillance shows that she never left the room.

Because of the deceased's personality, he always criticized Lin Youmazi's work. The two had quarrels more than once because of cleaning issues.

The sixth employee is the witness who discovered the deceased, Chiaki Mamiya. He is the assistant of the deceased. He usually has more contact with the deceased. He was walking and resting in the museum at the time of the incident.

Because he often came into contact with the deceased, he suffered the most from the deceased's bad temper. When he first came here, he was taught a lesson by the deceased. It was not until he got familiar with him that he was treated as a subordinate by the deceased.

Therefore, almost all the people in the museum are suspected of crimes. The reason why there are only these few suspects is because the staff of the museum cafeteria were busy in the kitchen with school activities today and did not have time to poison the deceased. s reason.

Conan sorted out the clues he had obtained before in his mind. The person who could kill the deceased without anyone noticing and get rid of the suspects. If he guessed correctly, it should be that person, but now he still has to wait and see the police's inspection. result.

"Brother Imaguchi, the popularity of this deceased person is so bad! Almost everyone here has a conflict with him, and I feel that everyone has the possibility of killing him." Ayumi stood in Imaguchi's heart and whispered in his ear.

"Didn't I say that I have a good personality before? I just have a bad temper occasionally, but I will apologize. How come everyone has conflicts?" Imaguchi squatted down and asked curiously.

If you just have some quirks, you shouldn't have a bad relationship with everyone. After all, they are just colleagues. If you respect each other, your relationship will not be so bad.

Could it be that his hobbies are strange and intolerable?

"Those uncles and aunts said that the deceased had a somewhat unstable personality. He usually seemed to be very talkative and had a cheerful personality, but sometimes he could be particularly stubborn.

For example, he mixes coffee with strange things, likes to let others taste it, and likes to play pranks. He would be scolded severely for things he didn't like, and the cleaning lady would be scolded if he accidentally touched his things. Art museum employees would also be scolded if they made mistakes in their work or handed in materials that were not in line with his work habits. "Guangyan said in a low voice. They were stunned when they first heard it. This can't be described as having a weird temper. It can be said that he has a very bad temper!

"When he curses someone, he doesn't care whether there are people around him or not. And after he curses someone, he will forget about it. If someone talks to him, he will still look like he doesn't care." Yuantai added standing aside. , although such curses are usually only once or twice a month, but it is enough to make people angry.

Especially after he finished scolding someone, someone went to apologize to him. He acted like he was easy to talk to and had already forgotten about the matter, and told the other person not to pay too much attention. Hearing Yuanta just made him want to hit someone.

"This character is too bad." Imaguchi's heart and mouth twitched. The deceased had such a bad character. Didn't anyone put a sack on him and beat him?

"Yeah, I almost want to hit someone when I hear that." Yuantai nodded, not agreeing too much.

"But now it's completely impossible to tell which one is the murderer. After all, every employee seems to have been scolded by the deceased, right?" Mitsuhiko said in a low voice, looking at the librarians standing there who were either talking quietly or silently.

Imaguchi glanced at Conan and said nothing.

It didn't take long for Officer Megure and the others to get the test report of the magazine. The magazine was indeed doped with cyanide. Although it has been processed, the residue can still be detected, and the folds can also be detected on the scattered pages inside.

It became clear at this point that someone tore out a few pages from the magazine, rolled them up, stuffed cyanide into them, and put them into the deceased's coffee.

The questions Conan wanted to know had already been answered from the police. Conan hid in the dark, opened his watch, and shot a needle at Sonoko's neck.

Sonoko felt a stinging pain on her neck. Before she could react, she immediately stumbled and her eyelids became very heavy.

Soon, Sonoko leaned against the wall and fell asleep quietly. Everyone looked at the sleeping Suzuki Sonoko in surprise.

"This is..." Several librarians looked at Suzuki Sonoko with some confusion, wondering what was wrong with her. Why did he fall asleep suddenly?

"Officer Megure, I already know who the murderer is." Suzuki Sonoko's voice rang.

"Who is it?" Officer Megure looked at the sleeping Suzuki Sonoko and asked.

Although the police have obtained a lot of evidence, it is not easy to determine who the murderer is. After all, everyone has the possibility of committing a crime, and those pieces of paper are almost covered with everyone's fingerprints.

"I believe everyone has already guessed the murderer's methods and tools. Yes, it was based on these pages of magazines.

The murderer knew the deceased's daily routine and knew that he would stay in the office during lunch break and locked the door. The deceased's office was on the third floor, so according to common sense, the deceased's office should be a secret room.

But there was one place in the deceased's office that was open, and that was the vent. Although it is only 10cm wide, if the murderer wraps the poison in paper and then uses the paper roll to send the poison in, it is entirely possible for the poison to be successful.

The murderer did the same thing. He tore out several pages from the magazine, put cyanide in the middle, and then rolled the magazines into paper rolls and connected them together. Finally, the paper roll was stuffed into the vent, extended into the deceased's coffee cup, and the poison was pushed into the deceased's coffee by blowing air.

In this way, the deceased's coffee was poisoned without anyone noticing. Afterwards, as long as the paper was recycled and stuffed back into the magazine, no one would find out about it. After all, no one would care about a magazine.

Those who can do all this must be very familiar with the deceased and know his various habits, and there are not many people who can do this. Among the several suspects present, only two or three met this condition.

What allowed me to identify the murderer also came from those magazine pages.

The murderer knew that it would be difficult to remove fingerprints from the magazine, so he did not clean it too much. He simply processed it and put it back into the magazine.

Therefore, there were not only residual cyanide on those pages of the magazine, but also countless fingerprints. It was unrealistic to find the murderer from so many fingerprints. After all, the magazine was placed there and everyone could touch it. It would be very difficult to have fingerprints on it. normal.

But there was a special situation today. When I was idle and bored this morning, I happened to see this magazine and read it from beginning to end. His fingerprints were also left on it.

This also means that the magazine pages without his fingerprints were later put back, and that the person who read the magazine after him was the murderer. After all, when Imaguchi finished reading this magazine, it was already past dinner time, and it was no more than 40 minutes before the deceased was found. In such a short period of time, no one other than the murderer should read this magazine again.

Therefore, the murderer is Mr. Chiaki Mamiya. "

As soon as Suzuki Sonoko finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Mamiya Chiaki. Mamiya Chiaki's face turned pale. He really didn't expect anyone to read the magazine, nor did he care about his fingerprints being left on the magazine. He didn't expect this to happen. became evidence against him.
