The daily life of retired police dogs
Chapter 22 (1)
The hotel looks beautiful and quiet from the outside, and it smells good when you walk in, and the most important thing is that there are not too many tourists during this time period, but the boys and girls who are traveling together seem to like Katie.
After getting in touch with Katie during this period, Matsuda Jinhei felt that he had a good understanding of her.What she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat is another matter, after all, Katie doesn't seem to be too picky about what she eats.The point is, she seems to like girls and children very much.
Of course not all the girls, to be precise, the girls who "call her Miss Katie".
Thinking of how warm she is to Oshimori Nana who called her "Miss Kitty" every time, Matsuda Jinpei wanted to laugh but also expressed his understanding.After all, is it wrong for dogs to like being touched by humans anyway?
Absolutely not.
"It's really handsome."
The big dog right in front of her was cute and airy, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but want to reach out to touch her.When the fingertips really touched the soft hair, she smiled so brightly that she didn't look like a rich lady: "Cute, super cute! I want to raise it too!"
"Will uncle agree?"
"It's definitely possible! Well, can I ask?"
And the most important thing is that apart from the really handsome dog, her owner is also very handsome! !
The young man in front of him was dressed casually, his slightly curly hair looked very chic, coupled with sunglasses that added fashion value and a nice voice, the exposed face was enough to prove that he was handsome.With Miss Suzuki's eyesight, there will never be any "ugly man after taking off his glasses" incident!
"Huh? Ask what?"
"That's right, uh."
Originally, I wanted to ask about the approximate expenses and how much it cost to buy a dog. Suzuki Sonoko thought about it and felt that it seemed inappropriate to bring up these topics here, so he simply changed the way: "How old is Miss Kitty?"
"She's seven years old... probably a little over seven years old."
perhaps?
Hearing this uncertain word, Kudo Shinichi quickly looked at the dog and the person in front of him. Although it could be seen that the dog had a good relationship with him, he could be sure that the young man in front of him had not known the dog since he was a child. of.
It is more likely that it has only been raised for a period of time, and the length of this period does not exceed half a year. The 7-year-old dog was adopted by the new owner, could it be said that it was abandoned before?
No, looking at the dog's state and expression to strangers, it's not too similar.
"Mr. Matsuda?"
"Ah, yes, it's me."
Matsuda Jinping nodded when he heard the waiter calling his name, and smiled at the two little girls: "Sorry, we have to leave first."
"It's okay, it's okay, thank you Mr. Matsuda for allowing us to play with Miss Kitty."
Mao Lilan waved her hand embarrassingly. She likes cats, cats, dogs and all kinds of cute animals. Katie is majestic and cute, so it hits her heart even more.
Reluctantly getting his key to his room, Kogoro Moori laughed wildly when he saw the two of them turning their heads after a few steps, hooking his hand on the shoulder of the boy next to him, and his voice was still teasing: "It's nothing compared to a pair of How do dogs feel, Kudo?"
"..."
Can't he bear it!
"The Maori, I mean, the man."
When the group left, Matsuda Jinhei touched Katie's ear and said casually, "It's my senior."
senior?
"Because the wife was hijacked by gangsters, the gangster who shot her in the leg couldn't escape, and then resigned after being criticized for this matter."
What can be compared to the various rumors inside the police is probably the hospital.Matsuda Jinhei has read a lot of files. Although Mori Kogoro has resigned, rumors about him are still lingering in the investigation department——
These include being unable to speak because of this incident, leading to separation from his childhood sweetheart wife, and making all single male police officers start to practice "the art of speech", which can be said to be a negative teaching material among negative teaching materials.
As for the positive teaching material, it is probably Mu Mu Shi 33?After all, he and his wife Mu Mulu are really sweet, and everyone in the search class complained about killing people without blood.
"But the fact that all the members of Boss Megure's subordinates are single has completely become a counterexample."
I used to work under Mumu Shisan, but after a small promotion, Matsuda Jinpei did not lead new recruits like Datehang, but continued to work on various tasks: "Well, anyway, these things , it’s good to know something about it. Yoshi, we’re in the room.”
Because it was stated in advance that she would bring the German Shepherd, and after confirming Katie's size and weight in detail on the other side of the phone, the hotel prepared a quite comfortable kennel for her.
"The scenery is also very good."
Enjoying the cool breeze in the mountains, Matsuda opened the window and took a deep breath. Feeling the scent of rosin specially lit by the hotel, he stretched his waist: "Tokyo's heat island effect is too terrible. It's better to be in the mountains. When I walked out, I felt the heat keep dropping.”
Katie didn't want to move at this time either, she lay her head on the edge of the kennel specially prepared for her, and occasionally sniffed the air with her nose.
"Well, did you find anything strange?"
Hearing Matsuda Jinpei's question, Katie raised her head and looked at him helplessly. After all, she was on vacation, so he hoped to meet something?
"Hey, isn't this hoping to kill all unfavorable factors in the cradle?"
Turning his face away uncomfortably, Matsuda Jinpei seemed to think of something soon and said, "But I feel something is wrong."
Not quite right?
"I hope it's just my illusion, but I also want to say that after being a criminal police officer for so many years, hunches and intuitions often arrive faster than evidence."
Matsuda Jinpei sighed, he really didn't want to make this supposed to be a pleasant and relaxing vacation to be full of twists and turns, so——
"Let's go to the hotel for 'exploration' first?"
Seeing that the curly-haired youth seemed to be serious, Katie thought for a while, then simply nodded and stood up from the kennel, and ran to the outside courtyard of the hotel with a little joy.
There is a stream outside the courtyard, the stream is cold enough to be seen by the naked eye, and the sudden appearance of a person and a dog startled the driver, who was resting.When he saw clearly that it was the kind German Shepherd wagging his tail, he smiled and leaned involuntarily.
Seeing that the other party did not welcome her, Katie was not angry, she still wagged her tail and dragged Matsuda Jinping to another section of the stream.The coolness brought by the water passing through her dog's paw made Katie whine uncontrollably, and the speed of that fluffy tail was even more comparable to that of a propeller.
"like very much?"
Also reaching out to touch the cold stream, and glancing at the nervous young man, Matsuda Jinpei took the dog aside: "Then let's explore further inside?"
Yep, she loves adventure.
He happily explored the surrounding hotels, and when he met Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko in the middle, Matsuda Jinpei also learned that they were able to come here because Mao Lilan won the hotel's hospitality coupon.
Theirs was given by Echizen Rinko next door, so let's not talk about it.
"So it is."
There are only the two of them as guests in the hotel now, and it seems that the business is a little bit bad
"Yeah, Xiaolan is super good at lottery! She is completely a pure European."
Unable to hold back, she bent down and licked Kitty's head furiously. Suzuki Sonoko now feels that handsome guys are not as good as dogs, and dogs are still more fun: "I did the same thing in the card drawing game last time. She won the character that couldn't be drawn no matter what!"
"That's really amazing, Miss Maori, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Pfft, it's actually very difficult, I can't really get it."
"It doesn't matter, it's just one time anyway."
Skillfully calling out the game he was playing recently, Matsuda Jinpei also fell silent when he saw the colorful lights flickering in the card pool.
how to say--
"Miss Maori, if there is anything you can ask me to do, I'm basically fine."
"It really doesn't matter."
He waved his hands dumbfounded, turned his head and saw the bamboo horse that seemed to be still awkward, and Mao Lilan waved at him helplessly: "Okay, Xinyi, shall we go to the mountain to have a look?"
"Go."
The two batches of guests who received the coupons were obviously arranged by the hotel to come at a similar time. After all, they were free things, and Matsuda Jinpei felt that there was nothing wrong with them.only--
"This hotel seems to be quite old."
After saying goodbye to a few high school students, Matsuda Jinpei lightened his pace a little, turned around and thought about it: "And Titi, did you find out?"
Found what?
Katie's ears moved suddenly, and she exchanged glances with Jinhei Matsuda when she heard some quarreling sounds, and after following the sound, she ran quietly and heard a few words that seemed to be negotiating a hotel purchase.
"No wonder, it turns out that the owner is going to change."
Knowing where the strange aura he felt when he came to the hotel, Matsuda Jinhei breathed a sigh of relief, picked up Katie and pointed to a direction not far away: "See, there is also a hotel over there."
Trying to widen her dog eyes, Katie vaguely saw an eaves.Matsuda Jinhei shrugged. He wanted to say that the free hotel coupons and the lottery in the shopping street are actually the same thing.
In essence, it is to attract tourists, and it may even start to make various activities to attract customers because it can't last.
"Anyway, this kind of thing doesn't matter to me, as long as you have fun."
Smiling and rubbing Katie's head again, Matsuda Jinpei raised his head when he vaguely heard a few curses that sounded like resentment, and simply continued to move forward with his dog in his arms.
Matsuda Jinpei wasn't too worried about whether the hotel closed down or was acquired. Anyway, he paid the invitation ticket to come here after confirmation, so it's good to be happy no matter what.
If something really happened, give him the performance.
Of course, the food in this hotel is also quite delicious, and even the proprietress came to the room in person to help deliver Katie's dog food.
"Thank you so much."
"No, I like dogs very much."
The proprietress looked very young because of her makeup, and she looked at the German Shepherd dog with more than gentle eyes, which made Matsuda Jinpei feel that she probably saw her long-lost daughter.
"My friend's family used to raise a German shepherd. I wished I could go home with her every day, and she scolded me for making friends with her because of her dog."
"puff."
Hearing this, Matsuda Jinping couldn't help laughing, looking at Katie very proudly: "My Katie is not picky eaters."
"But the German Shepherd's stomach is also relatively weak. Since you said so, you must have fed it with all your heart."
That's right, her meals are twice as expensive as mine, can it be okay?
"By the way, because you are in a room next to the mountain, you may hear the strange sound of the mountain wind at night. Please don't pay too much attention to it."
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of this."
Matsuda Jinpei shrugged, glanced at Katie who was eating dog food with relish, and sighed: "I don't know if Katie will be afraid."
"Do you need earplugs?"
Ridiculous, I will be afraid of the wind? ?
Katie didn't bother to listen to his ridicule after seeing her ward.The sound of the mountain wind blowing at night is indeed so tearful that Katie is so annoying that she wants to go out for a walk.
and……
As a police dog, she instinctively sensed that strange atmosphere change, so that she ran over and pushed Matsuda Jinpei awake.
"Huh? Don't make trouble, Titi, sleep a little longer——"
Awow bit his arm, Matsuda Jinhei was startled, looked down and found that there was not even a red mark on his arm, and his drowsiness had already run away.
"What's the matter? Want to go out and go to the bathroom? Ah, don't you always go to the bathroom by yourself?"
"..."
This man is so annoying!hurry up!
Feeling Katie's rare anxious look, Matsuda Jinhei frowned, opened the window suddenly, thought for a while, picked up the phone, picked it up, opened the door and poked his head out with the dog.
The aisle was as quiet as ever, but this silence was quickly broken.Following a waiter's scream, Matsuda Jinhei and Katie froze at the same time, and then ran away.
"Slow down, slow down!"
Seeing Katie go all the way, Matsuda stretched out his hand weakly to grab two of them, only to feel that he was completely crushed again.
The next time he opened the door, he would absolutely, absolutely put Katie on a leash! !
Forced to follow the dog and try to catch up with these four legs, I also hope that the guests next to me will not suddenly open the door and see a dog running away——
"What happened? Woohoo!!"
Startled by the black shadow at the door, Shinichi Kudo looked at Jinhei Matsuda who was apologizing to himself while shouting "Katie is back", the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Didn't it mean that the German Shepherd doesn't demolish the house? What's the situation right now? ? ?
Do not demolish the house, but zipper?
The screaming just now really made Shinichi Kudo, who wanted to be a detective, a little concerned. As a former detective, Kogoro Mori naturally had a serious expression, but he soon remembered that he was not in office but just a detective who received two cheating orders a month. Become hippie smiling again.
"Let's go, there must be a case."
"Uncle, uncle?"
"Go and have a look, after all, I'm a 'detective' now."
The screams of the hotel maids quickly attracted many people, and almost all the hotel personnel were present. After Matsuda Jinhei arrived at the scene, he immediately took a screenshot of the time, temperature and humidity on the screen of his mobile phone, and then took out his police officer ID and dialed phone.
"Police, Matsuda Jinpei, search section 3, forcible criminal search, murderer search, third department, police department. Please give me the detailed address of the hotel, and who was the first to find the deceased?"
"Yes Yes……"
Matsuda Jinpei nodded when she saw the trembling woman kneeling on the ground, then lowered her head and touched Katie slightly: "Why don't you go and comfort her?"
She is not a golden retriever, nor is she a Labrador. How can she comfort such a vicious German Shepherd?
and……
Katie sniffed the smell in the air, but she was still unwilling to take her steps.Seeing that there seemed to be a special situation, Matsuda Jinpei made a note of the situation, hung up the phone after communicating with colleagues who were forced to work overtime late at night, and said to the lady boss who was panicking but still trying to comfort others: "Madam boss , I need disposable gloves, and everyone can’t leave the hotel.”
Even if the one who ran out of the hotel and disappeared was not the murderer, he must have an absolute connection with the murderer.
"I, I know."
The proprietress who understood the pros and cons nodded palely, Matsuda Jinping glanced at the scene that should not have been destroyed and said, "The maid who discovered it first, what is the reason why you came to the boss at such a late night?"
"This, this."
"..."
"What is it?"
Feeling that the eyes of the surroundings were all on her, the waitress still had no strength to stand up, her lips trembled, she subconsciously put her hands on her lower abdomen and said, "I, I was called by the master."
Called over and found dead?
"Yes, today, he said he would be busy and asked me to come after 11:30..."
"That's not--"
Mao Lilan suddenly covered Kudo Shinichi's mouth. Although they are high school students, they have received the baptism of various TV dramas and social news. What else is unexpected.
It was nothing more than some unspeakable emotional development between the hotel owner and the waitress, and they all knew it.
"I know about this."
The landlady's expression was calm, and she didn't force the waitress to explain the matter clearly: "Although he and I haven't divorced yet, we still live in the hotel, but in different rooms."
"That's right, the proprietress and the boss have been separated for almost three years."
One of them, who looked like a housekeeper, lowered her head so that she could not see the situation clearly: "This is something that everyone has known since working in a hotel for a while."
Although they knew it, as long as everyone knew it well, it would definitely not be executed publicly on the spot like it is now.Kudo Shinichi, whose mouth was covered, realizes that even Mori Kogoro didn't make a joke because of this, so he felt that he really seemed to be so quick-spoken.
Already basically in control of the home field, Matsuda Jinpei, who was blocking the door, took the gloves and thanked him, then handed a pair to Mori Kogoro: "Please, senior."
"What kind of senior am I?"
"Huh? Isn't it?"
"..."
He hates this kid.
He casually threw a pair at Kudo Shinichi, and Kogoro Mori snorted coldly when he saw his surprised look: "Learn, don't keep your mouth faster than your brain."
"Thank you, thank you uncle, and thank you Officer Matsuda."
After knowing that he could enter the scene, Kudo Shinichi was very pleasantly surprised, but hesitant, he just put on his gloves and stood at the door, squatting down and speaking seriously to the waitress: "Don't worry, you must have been very frightened, we will Try to make the boss's—”
"puff."
Everyone looked over when they heard a slight laugh, and saw a little more sarcasm on the young driver's face: "Mr. Kudo wants to clear up his grievances? What 'grievances' can he have?"
"Kenichi!"
"cut."
"Sorry, this child has always had a grudge against my husband, but he definitely didn't do it."
"That's what I did, I wish he would—"
Kudo Shinichi was taken aback when he saw the proprietress slapping her backhand to physically silence him, seeing his unconvinced and resentful expression, and his resemblance to the boss, he thought about it and said, "You are, his son?"
He is indeed a son, but his identity is probably quite difficult to say.
"Merisan, you are so generous that I can't even say a word."
Looking at his "mother" indifferently, the young man showed a smile: "That's it, anyway, I wish he died sooner, and the inheritance can be returned to me."
"Kenichi, what are you talking about—"
"Then he's going to sell the hotel, and I can't get any money. Fortunately, it seemed that there was no agreement on money when we were talking..."
"You should act first and kill people. The script is good, and you have watched a lot of TV dramas."
Ignoring this young man who didn't know what he was thinking, but most likely wanted to talk back to someone, Matsuda Jinhei felt a little difficult after watching the death scene.Now that there is a lack of forensic anatomy and various clues, he and Mori Kogoro can only start from the most basic judgment.
Keeping the tea, checking the indoor situation, the purchase contract, and——
"Wantian-san."
"Yes Yes."
"You came to buy Yoshikawa House, when was the last time you saw him?"
"Evening, nine o'clock in the evening."
Finding that the police officer did not look like he was interrogating himself as a suspect on the spot, the owner of the Wantianya Hotel next door was also relieved, and said with some memories: "After dinner tonight, continue to talk about acquisitions. , he has been refusing to give in and insisted on asking for so much money, and Tuo Dousang and I are very dissatisfied."
"Takuto, San?"
Takuto Yoshikawa couldn't help shivering when he heard this name, and he was obviously scared when he raised his hand: "Yes, it's me. I'm the younger brother of my elder brother Hideto."
The boss' younger brother, Takuto Yoshikawa.
It looks like a murder case in a secret room, and it is precisely because it is a murder case in a secret room that it is unlikely that the murderer is an acquisition businessman——
"The death of a wife requires suspicion of the husband first, and the death of a familiar confined space also requires suspicion of relatives."
After confirming that the window cannot be fully opened, that no one can enter through the window, and there are no traces of the window, Matsuda Jinhei turned his head and showed a formulaic smile to the young man who couldn't wait to say that he killed himself: "You don't want to be just a driver, I am also unwilling to continue this life of being unable to get ahead, so I want to inherit the inheritance as my illegitimate child, what do I say?"
Yes, according to "logic", it is true.
"But these actions of yours make me feel that you are covering up something."
In other words, he was covering up a murderer he had detected.
Looking at the proprietress, and Takuto, the younger brother of the deceased who timidly took a peek at Kenichi, and found that she did not feel pain because of her husband's death, Matsuda Jinpei sighed: "The relationship between the husband and wife has broken down. It seems that the proprietress tonight I haven’t been to the boss’ room either.”
Seeing the housekeeper next to him nodding slightly, Matsuda Jinhei turned to Yoshikawa Takuto, who was not sad because of his brother's death, but seemed relieved: "Then, Mr. Takuto, you went with Wan Tian-san Boss Yoshikawa's room?"
"Yes, it is."
"Then?"
"after……"
They then went back to their rooms without any other alibi.
"I checked Matsuda, and the estimated time of death was around ten o'clock, which is about one to two hours from now."
Mori Kogoro also put down the corpse's hand a little bit, and began to check the surrounding situation: "Speaking of which, did you drink tea while chatting?"
"Drink some, after all, it's too impolite to visit with nothing. Oh yes, the tea is... brought by this person."
Turning his gaze to the maid kneeling on the ground again, looking at Katie's expression and her movements, Matsuda Jinpei glanced at the young man who claimed to be the illegitimate child and suddenly smiled softly.
"Do you still want to say that you chose to kill him because she was pregnant?"
Pregnant--
"Miss waitress, you are pregnant with Boss Yoshikawa's child, right?"
What?Pregnant?
Subconsciously looking at the movement of the waitress covering her stomach, Matsuda Jinhei glanced at Katie who was still refusing to go to her side, and understood that she must have smelled something different from ordinary people, so she refused to move forward .
"Anyway, it's too early to ask questions now, senior."
"I know, I know, are all the kids nowadays so good at torturing people?"
Mori Kogoro shrugged helplessly, turned to the proprietress and smiled obsequiously: "Anyway, proprietress, let's talk about these things later, let everyone go to the lobby and explain the approximate time, okay? Also, this time the passenger Seems to be very few?"
"Alright. As for the passengers, yes, we are no longer accepting foreign guests except you and Police Officer Matsuda because... because of the acquisition case."
Matsuda Jinpei noticed her expression that seemed to be looking into the room again, reached out and stroked her chin, and waited for everyone to leave, but when a high school student stayed behind, her face turned black.
"What are you doing here?"
"That, I, I am..."
Kudo Shinichi stuttered, then nodded with great determination, "I want to be a detective like Sherlock Holmes!"
"Then you have to pray that all modern criminal investigation methods will be ineffective. There is no fingerprint comparison, no forensic examination, and no correct suspicion and no law."
"..."
Hearing Matsuda Jinping's harsh and somewhat indifferent accusation, the young man who wanted to be a detective was very unconvinced.And in the next second, the oversized German Shepherd seemed to stand in front of him, silently repelling him from entering the scene.
"High school student, I want to ask you, how much have you studied? Can you open a wooden warehouse? Are you capable of taking revenge from criminals who might escape?"
"I……"
"Have you studied the basic criminal investigation methods, and you are sure that you will not feel sympathy for anyone's appearance, and you will not make a promise in person, only to catch the murderer as your duty in this life, and not just because you simply deduce the murderer. Are you happy? ?”
Matsuda Jinpei noticed that the young man was gradually starting to think, and his expression didn't change as if he was a bit unwilling. His tone became much gentler: "So, go and stay with senior, at least you'll be safe next to him."
Of course he knew that Kudo Shinichi's ambition was very good, but it's a pity that he still used the wrong method: "When I don't know if the suspect will attack him a second time, if it wasn't because it was late at night and he was in a hotel in the mountains, everyone would have They should be evacuated and confirmed separately, just in case."
Seeing him froze as if he hadn't thought of this at all, the curly-haired police officer laughed instead.It is good to have this kind of heart, but if he does things only with enthusiasm, then he will bring disasters to his teammates, colleagues and even innocent people.
"Then what should I do now?"
"Forget it, don't go back now, play with Katie."
Silently looking down to see the blinking eyes of the German Shepherd, Kudo Shinichi stopped dumbfoundingly.He finally chose to stand at the door, and then sneaked a peek inside.
Knowing that Kudo Shinichi would not come to make trouble, Katie turned her head to look indoors, and saw Matsuda Jinpei silently protesting to the appearance of handing her a water glass.
She can't possibly drink this stuff.
"I didn't let you drink it. Smell it. Is there anything in it?"
"Is this almond tea?"
Seeing that the object in the teacup still had that unique smell, Kudo Shin had a brain hole for a moment: "Did you use cyanochemicals to kill people? The bitter almond smell was covered up or something?"
"Save it for a while and go back to check it out. Seeing that Katie is so vigilant, there should be something, but it doesn't rule out that the deceased had allergens and used allergens to kill people."
"So it is."
"With no props, a forensic doctor to determine the cause of death, and insufficient evidence, what reasoning can you make?"
"Well."
Hearing this request, Kudo Shinichi frowned, and after thinking for a moment he hesitated to say: "I think that person, Kenichi-kun who claimed to have killed the other party is not the murderer."
"why?"
"How can a murderer shout out like that—"
"Then what if the murderer wants to take advantage of your mentality?"
Seeing Kudo Shinichi start to struggle again, Matsuda Jinhei pulled his gloves, and continued to look through the diary of the shop owner: "The boss and the proprietress have no son, and the only descendant is Kenichi-kun, this hotel itself should belong to him. But now, the hotel lady is pregnant."
He is not the only heir, so the motive for the crime naturally emerged.
Matsuda Jinpei looked around for the last time, as if thinking of something, he opened the bathroom door again.After confirming that there were no traces in it, he stepped back carefully and walked out, while reaching out to touch the keyhole.
"Ok?"
"What's the matter, Officer Matsuda?"
Staring at the water stains on his fingertips, Matsuda Jinpei smiled slightly after confirming, then lowered his head and patted the dog next to him: "How is it, is it iced or not?"
"..."
Did this man rub the water from his finger on her hair, thinking she wouldn't be angry?
"I'll stay here, you go and see how Senior Maori's question is going."
"Speaking of which, Officer Matsuda, you call uncle a senior—"
"Of course it's because he was searching for Section [-] before, and I happened to be the one searching Section [-], it's as simple as that."
Seeing that Matsuda Jinpei still wanted to protect the scene, Kudo Shinichi was also a little reluctant to leave, until he heard footsteps nearby and the call of "Officer Matsuda", Matsuda Jinpei poked his head out and recognized the running man It was Miwako Sato who was a little suspicious: "Why are you?"
"Although you have applied for annual leave, Officer Matsuda, it is also a normal public holiday now. It is Takagi's turn to be on duty in the bureau. I took three days of annual leave and took a break at the Mantian House next door."
In the end, who knew that a phone call came and said, "Satou, I heard that you are in the Wantianya next door, right? There is an accident in the Yoshidaya over there in Matsuda, so go and have a look."Well, the holiday will be ruined directly.
"Speaking of which, didn't you come on vacation with Sister Sang? Where is Sister Sang? I've always wanted to meet her."
"..."
ah?elder sister?What sister?
Katie tilted her head to look at Jinpei Matsuda, who had an ugly face, and then at the curious female police officer who had already put on her gloves. After thinking for a moment, she simply pushed her head against Shinichi Kudo's leg.
She seems to have guessed how Matsuda Jinhei usually fooled his colleagues, and let him clean up the mess. What does it have to do with her smart, responsible and handsome dog?
"But forget it, it's really hard to talk in this kind of situation. Officer Matsuda, after you finish the on-site investigation, go and ask questions first, and leave it to us here. Regarding the cause of the boss' death, because it is a vicious case, we will deal with it as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then, Satou."
Nodding cheerfully, Matsuda Jinpei strode forward immediately, his eyes swept across all the doors, and at the same time nodded to Kudo Shin who was following him: "Kudo-kun, you watched the entire crime scene at the door, what do you think? Is it?"
"Well, first of all, the boss should have died of drugs, suffocation caused by allergies, or a heart attack after extreme panic. After all, there are only a few possibilities because there is no injury on the outside."
No longer so confident, Kudo Shinichi tried hard to think about the micro-expressions of everyone on the scene: "And this boss is unpopular to some extent."
"why?"
"Because most of the people came with the proprietress, not many people saw the death of the proprietor in pain, it seems that only Mr. Chef was one of them. Others were more shocked, unbelievable, and some seemed to be loose The tone is the same, and because the other party died, you must show grief."
Um?That's right, the kid who claims to be Sherlock Holmes can actually pay attention to the state of the crowd?
"Kenichi-kun who jumped out first did it on purpose, because he has obviously thought about how to say all these words. He made a plan, but he didn't have time to display it. If not today, maybe someday he will really Do it."
Kudo Shinichi slowed down a little, and his dark blue eyes were a little more puzzled: "In my opinion, this kind of scene is similar to a secret room murder. The murderer who commits the crime needs to know the hotel well, so you first Is it right to rule out the owner of Wan Tianya who has a more murderous motive?"
"After all, what Jin Yuan can take down, even if he wants to do it, it will not be so straightforward."
Matsuda Jinping's face was full of sarcasm, and he pointed to the wooden structure of the entire hotel: "There are many methods available."
"Then, as far as I'm concerned, it's my brother and the proprietress...you mean, the proprietress?"
Thinking of the proprietress's overly calm appearance, as if she knew what would happen long ago, Kudo Shinichi frowned and felt that he couldn't imagine: "But Kenichi-kun is an illegitimate child, right? You have also seen his wife's attitude towards illegitimate children just now. With any polite appearance, why would Kenichi-kun want to divert the attention of the proprietress?"
No, not to divert attention, but...
"As you said, they don't have a good relationship, and Kenichi-kun's method of diverting attention is not very clever."
"Did he point to the real murderer by mistake?"
"I have to correct you on one point, Kudo-kun."
Opening the hall, the originally noisy hall became quiet instantly when Mr. Police Officer and Miss Police Dog approached.Matsuda Jinpei did not stop his conversation with Kudo Shinichi, and his voice echoed throughout the hall, even a little bit louder.
"It's not a mistake, and Kenichi-kun is indeed going to kill Mr. Yoshikawa today."
It is indeed ready to kill——
Seeing the young man's face suddenly turned pale, Matsuda Jinpei's expression remained unchanged: "He wants to get back what belongs to him. If he doesn't succeed, there is a high probability that he won't succeed, so he is going to kill him and disguise everything as A locked room murder. Only when he opened the door, Mr. Yoshikawa was already dead."
Only the proprietress has the key, and those strange wind noises in the mountains can cover up many traces. Matsuda Jinpei first looked at Yoshikawa Takuto, the younger brother of the deceased, with a more serious and curious expression: "Do you think this hotel is Yours? Why?"
"Originally, this place is mine. How could it belong to that trash who went to Tokyo and failed to make a living, and hasn't even returned a letter or a phone call for many years!"
Seeing the police officer's certainty, Takuto Yoshikawa was held down by Mori Kogoro, and he struggled and laughed wildly
After getting in touch with Katie during this period, Matsuda Jinhei felt that he had a good understanding of her.What she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat is another matter, after all, Katie doesn't seem to be too picky about what she eats.The point is, she seems to like girls and children very much.
Of course not all the girls, to be precise, the girls who "call her Miss Katie".
Thinking of how warm she is to Oshimori Nana who called her "Miss Kitty" every time, Matsuda Jinpei wanted to laugh but also expressed his understanding.After all, is it wrong for dogs to like being touched by humans anyway?
Absolutely not.
"It's really handsome."
The big dog right in front of her was cute and airy, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but want to reach out to touch her.When the fingertips really touched the soft hair, she smiled so brightly that she didn't look like a rich lady: "Cute, super cute! I want to raise it too!"
"Will uncle agree?"
"It's definitely possible! Well, can I ask?"
And the most important thing is that apart from the really handsome dog, her owner is also very handsome! !
The young man in front of him was dressed casually, his slightly curly hair looked very chic, coupled with sunglasses that added fashion value and a nice voice, the exposed face was enough to prove that he was handsome.With Miss Suzuki's eyesight, there will never be any "ugly man after taking off his glasses" incident!
"Huh? Ask what?"
"That's right, uh."
Originally, I wanted to ask about the approximate expenses and how much it cost to buy a dog. Suzuki Sonoko thought about it and felt that it seemed inappropriate to bring up these topics here, so he simply changed the way: "How old is Miss Kitty?"
"She's seven years old... probably a little over seven years old."
perhaps?
Hearing this uncertain word, Kudo Shinichi quickly looked at the dog and the person in front of him. Although it could be seen that the dog had a good relationship with him, he could be sure that the young man in front of him had not known the dog since he was a child. of.
It is more likely that it has only been raised for a period of time, and the length of this period does not exceed half a year. The 7-year-old dog was adopted by the new owner, could it be said that it was abandoned before?
No, looking at the dog's state and expression to strangers, it's not too similar.
"Mr. Matsuda?"
"Ah, yes, it's me."
Matsuda Jinping nodded when he heard the waiter calling his name, and smiled at the two little girls: "Sorry, we have to leave first."
"It's okay, it's okay, thank you Mr. Matsuda for allowing us to play with Miss Kitty."
Mao Lilan waved her hand embarrassingly. She likes cats, cats, dogs and all kinds of cute animals. Katie is majestic and cute, so it hits her heart even more.
Reluctantly getting his key to his room, Kogoro Moori laughed wildly when he saw the two of them turning their heads after a few steps, hooking his hand on the shoulder of the boy next to him, and his voice was still teasing: "It's nothing compared to a pair of How do dogs feel, Kudo?"
"..."
Can't he bear it!
"The Maori, I mean, the man."
When the group left, Matsuda Jinhei touched Katie's ear and said casually, "It's my senior."
senior?
"Because the wife was hijacked by gangsters, the gangster who shot her in the leg couldn't escape, and then resigned after being criticized for this matter."
What can be compared to the various rumors inside the police is probably the hospital.Matsuda Jinhei has read a lot of files. Although Mori Kogoro has resigned, rumors about him are still lingering in the investigation department——
These include being unable to speak because of this incident, leading to separation from his childhood sweetheart wife, and making all single male police officers start to practice "the art of speech", which can be said to be a negative teaching material among negative teaching materials.
As for the positive teaching material, it is probably Mu Mu Shi 33?After all, he and his wife Mu Mulu are really sweet, and everyone in the search class complained about killing people without blood.
"But the fact that all the members of Boss Megure's subordinates are single has completely become a counterexample."
I used to work under Mumu Shisan, but after a small promotion, Matsuda Jinpei did not lead new recruits like Datehang, but continued to work on various tasks: "Well, anyway, these things , it’s good to know something about it. Yoshi, we’re in the room.”
Because it was stated in advance that she would bring the German Shepherd, and after confirming Katie's size and weight in detail on the other side of the phone, the hotel prepared a quite comfortable kennel for her.
"The scenery is also very good."
Enjoying the cool breeze in the mountains, Matsuda opened the window and took a deep breath. Feeling the scent of rosin specially lit by the hotel, he stretched his waist: "Tokyo's heat island effect is too terrible. It's better to be in the mountains. When I walked out, I felt the heat keep dropping.”
Katie didn't want to move at this time either, she lay her head on the edge of the kennel specially prepared for her, and occasionally sniffed the air with her nose.
"Well, did you find anything strange?"
Hearing Matsuda Jinpei's question, Katie raised her head and looked at him helplessly. After all, she was on vacation, so he hoped to meet something?
"Hey, isn't this hoping to kill all unfavorable factors in the cradle?"
Turning his face away uncomfortably, Matsuda Jinpei seemed to think of something soon and said, "But I feel something is wrong."
Not quite right?
"I hope it's just my illusion, but I also want to say that after being a criminal police officer for so many years, hunches and intuitions often arrive faster than evidence."
Matsuda Jinpei sighed, he really didn't want to make this supposed to be a pleasant and relaxing vacation to be full of twists and turns, so——
"Let's go to the hotel for 'exploration' first?"
Seeing that the curly-haired youth seemed to be serious, Katie thought for a while, then simply nodded and stood up from the kennel, and ran to the outside courtyard of the hotel with a little joy.
There is a stream outside the courtyard, the stream is cold enough to be seen by the naked eye, and the sudden appearance of a person and a dog startled the driver, who was resting.When he saw clearly that it was the kind German Shepherd wagging his tail, he smiled and leaned involuntarily.
Seeing that the other party did not welcome her, Katie was not angry, she still wagged her tail and dragged Matsuda Jinping to another section of the stream.The coolness brought by the water passing through her dog's paw made Katie whine uncontrollably, and the speed of that fluffy tail was even more comparable to that of a propeller.
"like very much?"
Also reaching out to touch the cold stream, and glancing at the nervous young man, Matsuda Jinpei took the dog aside: "Then let's explore further inside?"
Yep, she loves adventure.
He happily explored the surrounding hotels, and when he met Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko in the middle, Matsuda Jinpei also learned that they were able to come here because Mao Lilan won the hotel's hospitality coupon.
Theirs was given by Echizen Rinko next door, so let's not talk about it.
"So it is."
There are only the two of them as guests in the hotel now, and it seems that the business is a little bit bad
"Yeah, Xiaolan is super good at lottery! She is completely a pure European."
Unable to hold back, she bent down and licked Kitty's head furiously. Suzuki Sonoko now feels that handsome guys are not as good as dogs, and dogs are still more fun: "I did the same thing in the card drawing game last time. She won the character that couldn't be drawn no matter what!"
"That's really amazing, Miss Maori, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Pfft, it's actually very difficult, I can't really get it."
"It doesn't matter, it's just one time anyway."
Skillfully calling out the game he was playing recently, Matsuda Jinpei also fell silent when he saw the colorful lights flickering in the card pool.
how to say--
"Miss Maori, if there is anything you can ask me to do, I'm basically fine."
"It really doesn't matter."
He waved his hands dumbfounded, turned his head and saw the bamboo horse that seemed to be still awkward, and Mao Lilan waved at him helplessly: "Okay, Xinyi, shall we go to the mountain to have a look?"
"Go."
The two batches of guests who received the coupons were obviously arranged by the hotel to come at a similar time. After all, they were free things, and Matsuda Jinpei felt that there was nothing wrong with them.only--
"This hotel seems to be quite old."
After saying goodbye to a few high school students, Matsuda Jinpei lightened his pace a little, turned around and thought about it: "And Titi, did you find out?"
Found what?
Katie's ears moved suddenly, and she exchanged glances with Jinhei Matsuda when she heard some quarreling sounds, and after following the sound, she ran quietly and heard a few words that seemed to be negotiating a hotel purchase.
"No wonder, it turns out that the owner is going to change."
Knowing where the strange aura he felt when he came to the hotel, Matsuda Jinhei breathed a sigh of relief, picked up Katie and pointed to a direction not far away: "See, there is also a hotel over there."
Trying to widen her dog eyes, Katie vaguely saw an eaves.Matsuda Jinhei shrugged. He wanted to say that the free hotel coupons and the lottery in the shopping street are actually the same thing.
In essence, it is to attract tourists, and it may even start to make various activities to attract customers because it can't last.
"Anyway, this kind of thing doesn't matter to me, as long as you have fun."
Smiling and rubbing Katie's head again, Matsuda Jinpei raised his head when he vaguely heard a few curses that sounded like resentment, and simply continued to move forward with his dog in his arms.
Matsuda Jinpei wasn't too worried about whether the hotel closed down or was acquired. Anyway, he paid the invitation ticket to come here after confirmation, so it's good to be happy no matter what.
If something really happened, give him the performance.
Of course, the food in this hotel is also quite delicious, and even the proprietress came to the room in person to help deliver Katie's dog food.
"Thank you so much."
"No, I like dogs very much."
The proprietress looked very young because of her makeup, and she looked at the German Shepherd dog with more than gentle eyes, which made Matsuda Jinpei feel that she probably saw her long-lost daughter.
"My friend's family used to raise a German shepherd. I wished I could go home with her every day, and she scolded me for making friends with her because of her dog."
"puff."
Hearing this, Matsuda Jinping couldn't help laughing, looking at Katie very proudly: "My Katie is not picky eaters."
"But the German Shepherd's stomach is also relatively weak. Since you said so, you must have fed it with all your heart."
That's right, her meals are twice as expensive as mine, can it be okay?
"By the way, because you are in a room next to the mountain, you may hear the strange sound of the mountain wind at night. Please don't pay too much attention to it."
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of this."
Matsuda Jinpei shrugged, glanced at Katie who was eating dog food with relish, and sighed: "I don't know if Katie will be afraid."
"Do you need earplugs?"
Ridiculous, I will be afraid of the wind? ?
Katie didn't bother to listen to his ridicule after seeing her ward.The sound of the mountain wind blowing at night is indeed so tearful that Katie is so annoying that she wants to go out for a walk.
and……
As a police dog, she instinctively sensed that strange atmosphere change, so that she ran over and pushed Matsuda Jinpei awake.
"Huh? Don't make trouble, Titi, sleep a little longer——"
Awow bit his arm, Matsuda Jinhei was startled, looked down and found that there was not even a red mark on his arm, and his drowsiness had already run away.
"What's the matter? Want to go out and go to the bathroom? Ah, don't you always go to the bathroom by yourself?"
"..."
This man is so annoying!hurry up!
Feeling Katie's rare anxious look, Matsuda Jinhei frowned, opened the window suddenly, thought for a while, picked up the phone, picked it up, opened the door and poked his head out with the dog.
The aisle was as quiet as ever, but this silence was quickly broken.Following a waiter's scream, Matsuda Jinhei and Katie froze at the same time, and then ran away.
"Slow down, slow down!"
Seeing Katie go all the way, Matsuda stretched out his hand weakly to grab two of them, only to feel that he was completely crushed again.
The next time he opened the door, he would absolutely, absolutely put Katie on a leash! !
Forced to follow the dog and try to catch up with these four legs, I also hope that the guests next to me will not suddenly open the door and see a dog running away——
"What happened? Woohoo!!"
Startled by the black shadow at the door, Shinichi Kudo looked at Jinhei Matsuda who was apologizing to himself while shouting "Katie is back", the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Didn't it mean that the German Shepherd doesn't demolish the house? What's the situation right now? ? ?
Do not demolish the house, but zipper?
The screaming just now really made Shinichi Kudo, who wanted to be a detective, a little concerned. As a former detective, Kogoro Mori naturally had a serious expression, but he soon remembered that he was not in office but just a detective who received two cheating orders a month. Become hippie smiling again.
"Let's go, there must be a case."
"Uncle, uncle?"
"Go and have a look, after all, I'm a 'detective' now."
The screams of the hotel maids quickly attracted many people, and almost all the hotel personnel were present. After Matsuda Jinhei arrived at the scene, he immediately took a screenshot of the time, temperature and humidity on the screen of his mobile phone, and then took out his police officer ID and dialed phone.
"Police, Matsuda Jinpei, search section 3, forcible criminal search, murderer search, third department, police department. Please give me the detailed address of the hotel, and who was the first to find the deceased?"
"Yes Yes……"
Matsuda Jinpei nodded when she saw the trembling woman kneeling on the ground, then lowered her head and touched Katie slightly: "Why don't you go and comfort her?"
She is not a golden retriever, nor is she a Labrador. How can she comfort such a vicious German Shepherd?
and……
Katie sniffed the smell in the air, but she was still unwilling to take her steps.Seeing that there seemed to be a special situation, Matsuda Jinpei made a note of the situation, hung up the phone after communicating with colleagues who were forced to work overtime late at night, and said to the lady boss who was panicking but still trying to comfort others: "Madam boss , I need disposable gloves, and everyone can’t leave the hotel.”
Even if the one who ran out of the hotel and disappeared was not the murderer, he must have an absolute connection with the murderer.
"I, I know."
The proprietress who understood the pros and cons nodded palely, Matsuda Jinping glanced at the scene that should not have been destroyed and said, "The maid who discovered it first, what is the reason why you came to the boss at such a late night?"
"This, this."
"..."
"What is it?"
Feeling that the eyes of the surroundings were all on her, the waitress still had no strength to stand up, her lips trembled, she subconsciously put her hands on her lower abdomen and said, "I, I was called by the master."
Called over and found dead?
"Yes, today, he said he would be busy and asked me to come after 11:30..."
"That's not--"
Mao Lilan suddenly covered Kudo Shinichi's mouth. Although they are high school students, they have received the baptism of various TV dramas and social news. What else is unexpected.
It was nothing more than some unspeakable emotional development between the hotel owner and the waitress, and they all knew it.
"I know about this."
The landlady's expression was calm, and she didn't force the waitress to explain the matter clearly: "Although he and I haven't divorced yet, we still live in the hotel, but in different rooms."
"That's right, the proprietress and the boss have been separated for almost three years."
One of them, who looked like a housekeeper, lowered her head so that she could not see the situation clearly: "This is something that everyone has known since working in a hotel for a while."
Although they knew it, as long as everyone knew it well, it would definitely not be executed publicly on the spot like it is now.Kudo Shinichi, whose mouth was covered, realizes that even Mori Kogoro didn't make a joke because of this, so he felt that he really seemed to be so quick-spoken.
Already basically in control of the home field, Matsuda Jinpei, who was blocking the door, took the gloves and thanked him, then handed a pair to Mori Kogoro: "Please, senior."
"What kind of senior am I?"
"Huh? Isn't it?"
"..."
He hates this kid.
He casually threw a pair at Kudo Shinichi, and Kogoro Mori snorted coldly when he saw his surprised look: "Learn, don't keep your mouth faster than your brain."
"Thank you, thank you uncle, and thank you Officer Matsuda."
After knowing that he could enter the scene, Kudo Shinichi was very pleasantly surprised, but hesitant, he just put on his gloves and stood at the door, squatting down and speaking seriously to the waitress: "Don't worry, you must have been very frightened, we will Try to make the boss's—”
"puff."
Everyone looked over when they heard a slight laugh, and saw a little more sarcasm on the young driver's face: "Mr. Kudo wants to clear up his grievances? What 'grievances' can he have?"
"Kenichi!"
"cut."
"Sorry, this child has always had a grudge against my husband, but he definitely didn't do it."
"That's what I did, I wish he would—"
Kudo Shinichi was taken aback when he saw the proprietress slapping her backhand to physically silence him, seeing his unconvinced and resentful expression, and his resemblance to the boss, he thought about it and said, "You are, his son?"
He is indeed a son, but his identity is probably quite difficult to say.
"Merisan, you are so generous that I can't even say a word."
Looking at his "mother" indifferently, the young man showed a smile: "That's it, anyway, I wish he died sooner, and the inheritance can be returned to me."
"Kenichi, what are you talking about—"
"Then he's going to sell the hotel, and I can't get any money. Fortunately, it seemed that there was no agreement on money when we were talking..."
"You should act first and kill people. The script is good, and you have watched a lot of TV dramas."
Ignoring this young man who didn't know what he was thinking, but most likely wanted to talk back to someone, Matsuda Jinhei felt a little difficult after watching the death scene.Now that there is a lack of forensic anatomy and various clues, he and Mori Kogoro can only start from the most basic judgment.
Keeping the tea, checking the indoor situation, the purchase contract, and——
"Wantian-san."
"Yes Yes."
"You came to buy Yoshikawa House, when was the last time you saw him?"
"Evening, nine o'clock in the evening."
Finding that the police officer did not look like he was interrogating himself as a suspect on the spot, the owner of the Wantianya Hotel next door was also relieved, and said with some memories: "After dinner tonight, continue to talk about acquisitions. , he has been refusing to give in and insisted on asking for so much money, and Tuo Dousang and I are very dissatisfied."
"Takuto, San?"
Takuto Yoshikawa couldn't help shivering when he heard this name, and he was obviously scared when he raised his hand: "Yes, it's me. I'm the younger brother of my elder brother Hideto."
The boss' younger brother, Takuto Yoshikawa.
It looks like a murder case in a secret room, and it is precisely because it is a murder case in a secret room that it is unlikely that the murderer is an acquisition businessman——
"The death of a wife requires suspicion of the husband first, and the death of a familiar confined space also requires suspicion of relatives."
After confirming that the window cannot be fully opened, that no one can enter through the window, and there are no traces of the window, Matsuda Jinhei turned his head and showed a formulaic smile to the young man who couldn't wait to say that he killed himself: "You don't want to be just a driver, I am also unwilling to continue this life of being unable to get ahead, so I want to inherit the inheritance as my illegitimate child, what do I say?"
Yes, according to "logic", it is true.
"But these actions of yours make me feel that you are covering up something."
In other words, he was covering up a murderer he had detected.
Looking at the proprietress, and Takuto, the younger brother of the deceased who timidly took a peek at Kenichi, and found that she did not feel pain because of her husband's death, Matsuda Jinpei sighed: "The relationship between the husband and wife has broken down. It seems that the proprietress tonight I haven’t been to the boss’ room either.”
Seeing the housekeeper next to him nodding slightly, Matsuda Jinhei turned to Yoshikawa Takuto, who was not sad because of his brother's death, but seemed relieved: "Then, Mr. Takuto, you went with Wan Tian-san Boss Yoshikawa's room?"
"Yes, it is."
"Then?"
"after……"
They then went back to their rooms without any other alibi.
"I checked Matsuda, and the estimated time of death was around ten o'clock, which is about one to two hours from now."
Mori Kogoro also put down the corpse's hand a little bit, and began to check the surrounding situation: "Speaking of which, did you drink tea while chatting?"
"Drink some, after all, it's too impolite to visit with nothing. Oh yes, the tea is... brought by this person."
Turning his gaze to the maid kneeling on the ground again, looking at Katie's expression and her movements, Matsuda Jinpei glanced at the young man who claimed to be the illegitimate child and suddenly smiled softly.
"Do you still want to say that you chose to kill him because she was pregnant?"
Pregnant--
"Miss waitress, you are pregnant with Boss Yoshikawa's child, right?"
What?Pregnant?
Subconsciously looking at the movement of the waitress covering her stomach, Matsuda Jinhei glanced at Katie who was still refusing to go to her side, and understood that she must have smelled something different from ordinary people, so she refused to move forward .
"Anyway, it's too early to ask questions now, senior."
"I know, I know, are all the kids nowadays so good at torturing people?"
Mori Kogoro shrugged helplessly, turned to the proprietress and smiled obsequiously: "Anyway, proprietress, let's talk about these things later, let everyone go to the lobby and explain the approximate time, okay? Also, this time the passenger Seems to be very few?"
"Alright. As for the passengers, yes, we are no longer accepting foreign guests except you and Police Officer Matsuda because... because of the acquisition case."
Matsuda Jinpei noticed her expression that seemed to be looking into the room again, reached out and stroked her chin, and waited for everyone to leave, but when a high school student stayed behind, her face turned black.
"What are you doing here?"
"That, I, I am..."
Kudo Shinichi stuttered, then nodded with great determination, "I want to be a detective like Sherlock Holmes!"
"Then you have to pray that all modern criminal investigation methods will be ineffective. There is no fingerprint comparison, no forensic examination, and no correct suspicion and no law."
"..."
Hearing Matsuda Jinping's harsh and somewhat indifferent accusation, the young man who wanted to be a detective was very unconvinced.And in the next second, the oversized German Shepherd seemed to stand in front of him, silently repelling him from entering the scene.
"High school student, I want to ask you, how much have you studied? Can you open a wooden warehouse? Are you capable of taking revenge from criminals who might escape?"
"I……"
"Have you studied the basic criminal investigation methods, and you are sure that you will not feel sympathy for anyone's appearance, and you will not make a promise in person, only to catch the murderer as your duty in this life, and not just because you simply deduce the murderer. Are you happy? ?”
Matsuda Jinpei noticed that the young man was gradually starting to think, and his expression didn't change as if he was a bit unwilling. His tone became much gentler: "So, go and stay with senior, at least you'll be safe next to him."
Of course he knew that Kudo Shinichi's ambition was very good, but it's a pity that he still used the wrong method: "When I don't know if the suspect will attack him a second time, if it wasn't because it was late at night and he was in a hotel in the mountains, everyone would have They should be evacuated and confirmed separately, just in case."
Seeing him froze as if he hadn't thought of this at all, the curly-haired police officer laughed instead.It is good to have this kind of heart, but if he does things only with enthusiasm, then he will bring disasters to his teammates, colleagues and even innocent people.
"Then what should I do now?"
"Forget it, don't go back now, play with Katie."
Silently looking down to see the blinking eyes of the German Shepherd, Kudo Shinichi stopped dumbfoundingly.He finally chose to stand at the door, and then sneaked a peek inside.
Knowing that Kudo Shinichi would not come to make trouble, Katie turned her head to look indoors, and saw Matsuda Jinpei silently protesting to the appearance of handing her a water glass.
She can't possibly drink this stuff.
"I didn't let you drink it. Smell it. Is there anything in it?"
"Is this almond tea?"
Seeing that the object in the teacup still had that unique smell, Kudo Shin had a brain hole for a moment: "Did you use cyanochemicals to kill people? The bitter almond smell was covered up or something?"
"Save it for a while and go back to check it out. Seeing that Katie is so vigilant, there should be something, but it doesn't rule out that the deceased had allergens and used allergens to kill people."
"So it is."
"With no props, a forensic doctor to determine the cause of death, and insufficient evidence, what reasoning can you make?"
"Well."
Hearing this request, Kudo Shinichi frowned, and after thinking for a moment he hesitated to say: "I think that person, Kenichi-kun who claimed to have killed the other party is not the murderer."
"why?"
"How can a murderer shout out like that—"
"Then what if the murderer wants to take advantage of your mentality?"
Seeing Kudo Shinichi start to struggle again, Matsuda Jinhei pulled his gloves, and continued to look through the diary of the shop owner: "The boss and the proprietress have no son, and the only descendant is Kenichi-kun, this hotel itself should belong to him. But now, the hotel lady is pregnant."
He is not the only heir, so the motive for the crime naturally emerged.
Matsuda Jinpei looked around for the last time, as if thinking of something, he opened the bathroom door again.After confirming that there were no traces in it, he stepped back carefully and walked out, while reaching out to touch the keyhole.
"Ok?"
"What's the matter, Officer Matsuda?"
Staring at the water stains on his fingertips, Matsuda Jinpei smiled slightly after confirming, then lowered his head and patted the dog next to him: "How is it, is it iced or not?"
"..."
Did this man rub the water from his finger on her hair, thinking she wouldn't be angry?
"I'll stay here, you go and see how Senior Maori's question is going."
"Speaking of which, Officer Matsuda, you call uncle a senior—"
"Of course it's because he was searching for Section [-] before, and I happened to be the one searching Section [-], it's as simple as that."
Seeing that Matsuda Jinpei still wanted to protect the scene, Kudo Shinichi was also a little reluctant to leave, until he heard footsteps nearby and the call of "Officer Matsuda", Matsuda Jinpei poked his head out and recognized the running man It was Miwako Sato who was a little suspicious: "Why are you?"
"Although you have applied for annual leave, Officer Matsuda, it is also a normal public holiday now. It is Takagi's turn to be on duty in the bureau. I took three days of annual leave and took a break at the Mantian House next door."
In the end, who knew that a phone call came and said, "Satou, I heard that you are in the Wantianya next door, right? There is an accident in the Yoshidaya over there in Matsuda, so go and have a look."Well, the holiday will be ruined directly.
"Speaking of which, didn't you come on vacation with Sister Sang? Where is Sister Sang? I've always wanted to meet her."
"..."
ah?elder sister?What sister?
Katie tilted her head to look at Jinpei Matsuda, who had an ugly face, and then at the curious female police officer who had already put on her gloves. After thinking for a moment, she simply pushed her head against Shinichi Kudo's leg.
She seems to have guessed how Matsuda Jinhei usually fooled his colleagues, and let him clean up the mess. What does it have to do with her smart, responsible and handsome dog?
"But forget it, it's really hard to talk in this kind of situation. Officer Matsuda, after you finish the on-site investigation, go and ask questions first, and leave it to us here. Regarding the cause of the boss' death, because it is a vicious case, we will deal with it as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then, Satou."
Nodding cheerfully, Matsuda Jinpei strode forward immediately, his eyes swept across all the doors, and at the same time nodded to Kudo Shin who was following him: "Kudo-kun, you watched the entire crime scene at the door, what do you think? Is it?"
"Well, first of all, the boss should have died of drugs, suffocation caused by allergies, or a heart attack after extreme panic. After all, there are only a few possibilities because there is no injury on the outside."
No longer so confident, Kudo Shinichi tried hard to think about the micro-expressions of everyone on the scene: "And this boss is unpopular to some extent."
"why?"
"Because most of the people came with the proprietress, not many people saw the death of the proprietor in pain, it seems that only Mr. Chef was one of them. Others were more shocked, unbelievable, and some seemed to be loose The tone is the same, and because the other party died, you must show grief."
Um?That's right, the kid who claims to be Sherlock Holmes can actually pay attention to the state of the crowd?
"Kenichi-kun who jumped out first did it on purpose, because he has obviously thought about how to say all these words. He made a plan, but he didn't have time to display it. If not today, maybe someday he will really Do it."
Kudo Shinichi slowed down a little, and his dark blue eyes were a little more puzzled: "In my opinion, this kind of scene is similar to a secret room murder. The murderer who commits the crime needs to know the hotel well, so you first Is it right to rule out the owner of Wan Tianya who has a more murderous motive?"
"After all, what Jin Yuan can take down, even if he wants to do it, it will not be so straightforward."
Matsuda Jinping's face was full of sarcasm, and he pointed to the wooden structure of the entire hotel: "There are many methods available."
"Then, as far as I'm concerned, it's my brother and the proprietress...you mean, the proprietress?"
Thinking of the proprietress's overly calm appearance, as if she knew what would happen long ago, Kudo Shinichi frowned and felt that he couldn't imagine: "But Kenichi-kun is an illegitimate child, right? You have also seen his wife's attitude towards illegitimate children just now. With any polite appearance, why would Kenichi-kun want to divert the attention of the proprietress?"
No, not to divert attention, but...
"As you said, they don't have a good relationship, and Kenichi-kun's method of diverting attention is not very clever."
"Did he point to the real murderer by mistake?"
"I have to correct you on one point, Kudo-kun."
Opening the hall, the originally noisy hall became quiet instantly when Mr. Police Officer and Miss Police Dog approached.Matsuda Jinpei did not stop his conversation with Kudo Shinichi, and his voice echoed throughout the hall, even a little bit louder.
"It's not a mistake, and Kenichi-kun is indeed going to kill Mr. Yoshikawa today."
It is indeed ready to kill——
Seeing the young man's face suddenly turned pale, Matsuda Jinpei's expression remained unchanged: "He wants to get back what belongs to him. If he doesn't succeed, there is a high probability that he won't succeed, so he is going to kill him and disguise everything as A locked room murder. Only when he opened the door, Mr. Yoshikawa was already dead."
Only the proprietress has the key, and those strange wind noises in the mountains can cover up many traces. Matsuda Jinpei first looked at Yoshikawa Takuto, the younger brother of the deceased, with a more serious and curious expression: "Do you think this hotel is Yours? Why?"
"Originally, this place is mine. How could it belong to that trash who went to Tokyo and failed to make a living, and hasn't even returned a letter or a phone call for many years!"
Seeing the police officer's certainty, Takuto Yoshikawa was held down by Mori Kogoro, and he struggled and laughed wildly
