Conan Super Detective

"Uncle Maori, I knew you would definitely show up in this kind of place..." Dong Ma greeted with a smile.

And Kogoro laughed: "That's because the case is calling me a detective!"

The proud look, as if he hadn't heard another meaning in Dongma's words.

"But these elder brothers and sisters, aren't they the people you just met in the clothing store?" Conan said naively.

Immediately, Kogoro explained to everyone the scene when they met at about 4:30 in the afternoon, and what they did at that time.

"And the deceased should have sent a MMS message to the lady-dressed lady around 4:30..." Kogoro said.

Looking at the bookshelves fixed by metal buckles, the neatly arranged tableware for four, and the strange huge footprints in the hallway circled by chalk, Dong Ma asked about the situation of Gun Tian's body.

"The cause of death should have been strangled by the rope around the corpse's neck, with obvious signs of pressure."

Maori affirmed: "This woman is what I saw in the MMS."

"So according to Mr. Maori's statement, judging from what has been shown on the corpse, the time of death should be within the time period between 4:30 and 5:00 in the afternoon." Qiang Tian nodded and said.

"What happened on the corpse?" Dong Ma asked suspiciously, because Gunfield usually directly said the conclusion. Such a remark that seemed unnecessary, Dong Ma didn't think she was really talking nonsense.

"I think everyone knows that human muscles will become stiff after death. Generally, postmortem stiffness does not appear until two hours after death. However, if it is outdoors in summer or in such a heated room, the stiffness will be even greater. Early appearance..."

"And our deceased did not have any rigidity at all, so he should have died not long ago, and maybe even died before five o'clock when the body was found." Gun Tian came to such a conclusion.

"Speaking of which, who is this deceased named Umeda?" Kogoro asked, who had not yet figured out the situation.

Miwako replied: “She is the senior editor of women’s fashion magazines, and Mr. Motoshima who discovered the body is a famous makeup artist. The person who discovered and trained him is Ms. Umeda. Now Mr. Motoshima is accompanied by Ono to check the loss of the victim’s home. ."

Then Mikako pointed to the man in the knight armor and said, "This is Mr. Ishikawa, the photographer of the magazine, and that Miss Nakamura is a plane model."

At this time, the island, wearing a noble hunting outfit, walked out dejectedly, and Xiaoyehui, who went in with it, reported: "The ring and necklace in the victim's jewelry box are gone, so it may be a murder case of a robber who murdered him.

At this moment, Honjima suddenly said, "Could it be the man we saw when we came in?"

"What? Have you seen anyone come in and out here?" Miwako asked seriously immediately.

"Yes! Just when we came over at five o'clock, on the road from the parking lot to the apartment building, we saw the man in the black jacket running out in a panic!" Honjima explained seriously.

"In the beginning we thought it was a thief..." The beautiful model Nakamura immediately explained to everyone the situation when the deceased was found.

The three of them took the elevator upstairs while discussing who the person was just now.

However, when they knocked on the door, they didn't get a response from Editor-in-Chief Umeda. Then they found that the door was not locked, so they opened the door and walked in.

But before walking a few steps, I found the footprints in the corridor.

Realizing that something bad might have happened, the three of them immediately bypassed the footprints and walked to the darkened living room.

"Then we found that the editor-in-chief fell on the floor. It was Mr. Motoshima who went up to check at that time, only to find that the editor-in-chief Umeda was dead..."

After hearing Nakamura finish, Honjima also added.

"Then I was like calling the police and calling an ambulance, only to find that the phone line was cut. I think the prisoner did it..."

Nakamura nodded and said, "At that time, our mobile phones were stored in the clothing store where we borrowed clothes, and the editor-in-chief's 707 mobile phone was not found for a while, so Honjima-kun said to go to the public telephone booth outside to make a call with Ishikawa. "

"Then I thought it was too dangerous to let a woman from Nakamura stay on the scene, so I went outside to make a phone call with Nakamura, and then left the island in the room." Ishikawa also nodded.

Honjima smiled and joked: "After all, Ishikawa has always been a gentleman, and for this reason he is even better than my woman."

However, because there were no public telephones nearby, Ishikawa Nakamura called the police only when they arrived near the station. It was 5:15 at that time, while Miwako and others arrived at 5:30.

"But why do you want to store your phone?" Kogoro asked strangely.

Honjima immediately replied: "Because the editor-in-chief doesn't like mobile phones, although they usually bring them with me because of work, but in private occasions such as parties, not only I never bring my mobile phone, nor even allow others to bring a mobile phone..."

Nakamura nodded and said, "She mentioned this in the text message just now."

"Whether it was premeditated or accidental, in short, the prisoner entered the room from outside the unlocked door, and then took advantage of editor Umeda's carelessness, strangled her and robbed her of finances..." Kogoro made this Inference.

Miwako seems to be more inclined to make money and kill her...

But at this moment, Dong Ma noticed that on the neatly arranged dining table, the only corner where four or five cutlery were placed in a mess...

So Dongma shook his head: "Miss Umeda should be in this position when the crime happened, and if it was here, the victim should be able to notice someone entering the room from the hallway, but if the prisoner chased Umeda to the place where Umeda fell. And if he is strangled to death, then this scene with no trace of fighting would be a bit too weird..."

At this moment, Ono suddenly walked in with a man who kept shouting.

Seeing the visitor, Nakamura immediately exclaimed: "This is the man! The man we saw when we came in is him!"

"We found this strange-looking man at the station, because he turned around and ran when we went up to question, so I caught him back and found these jewelry from him..."

Immediately after the forensic class, the people began to compare the prisoner's shoes with the shoe prints in the corridor and found that they were exactly the same, and the jewelry found on his body was also Umeda's.

It seems that now the whole case is very clear.

However, after Miwako asked this suspicious man named Shimizu Masataka, she got an unexpected answer.

"I received a commission from the Internet to come to this apartment at five o'clock, and then take the jewelry from the table to the station. When I came, the clown was really dead!" Shimizu continued to argue.

However, Ono and others obviously didn't believe what he said, and were still interrogating him constantly, trying to squeeze out some useful clues.

And Dongma directly judged that this guy was basically not lying, so he surveyed the scene here, and soon there was a new harvest, that is, the switch of the stove was turned on, and it seemed to be a small fire. In terms of location, the pressure cooker above seems to be stewed with potatoes and beef before.

However, Dongma touched the pressure cooker, but found that it was cold. According to theory, they had only been here for more than ten minutes. It shouldn't have been completely cold in this heated room.

So Dongma directly opened the small door under the stove and saw that an earthquake sensor was installed on the gas pipe inside.

"Miwako, I remember that there was an earthquake in the afternoon in the generation of Beidocho, right?" Touma asked with certainty.

"That's right! And the Umeda editor commissioned the property company to install this sensor the day before yesterday, and the gas will be automatically turned off when the magnitude reaches 3."

Saying that, Miwako looked at the potato beef in the pressure cooker and frowned.

"Sure enough, this potato and beef was not cooked thoroughly. It should be the three o'clock earthquake that triggered the sensor..."

Listening to Miwako's explanation, Dongma nodded his head and thought to himself:'So when it should be three o'clock, I forgot to open it again?No, for stewing this kind of food, you need to come over and check it out, seasoning and adding water. At least from 3:30 to 4, you should realize that the fire here has been turned off, so the reason for not turning it on is very simple. , Because editor-in-chief Umeda can no longer turn on the gas!'

'But what happened to the stiffness after death?If you died before three or three thirty, then there should have been stiffness in this room with the heating turned on... Could it be that it moved to a cold place?But the only domestic refrigerator that can do this, it is impossible to put a corpse...'

However, Dongma looked around and suddenly found that the curtain cloth of the balcony was stained with makeup powder, and there were artificial hair on the balcony guardrail...

"It seems that the prisoner is sure, that guy!" Dong Ma sneered triumphantly.
