Conan Super Detective

"No, it's this cell phone." Somei took out a cell phone.

"So, can anyone prove that you rest at home all day?" Miwako asked.

Obviously, for a bachelor, this is unlikely to prove.

Seeing the inquiries without progress, Dong Ma suddenly interrupted Mihezi and said: "The tone of asking questions that are destined to have no results, why not think about why the scene here is so strange..."

"Weird? What's weird?" Kogoro looked around questioningly and asked, "Except for the curtains being drawn up, there seems to be nothing strange?"

"I'm not talking about curtains, but coffee..." Dongma said, shaking his head.

"Coffee?" With deep doubts, everyone gathered around the dining table.

Dongma raised the saucer under the coffee cup and said: "Look here, if you say that a normal coffee cup falls like this, then there should be a relatively clean circular blank area under the saucer, because the saucer's Because the coffee can’t be spilled there, but in fact there is coffee there, and there are two thick and thin strips on the other side of the coffee cup pouring. And most importantly, the coffee saucer There is no coffee on the bottom."

Everyone came over after hearing this, and they all thought it looked suspicious.

"Then these two traces, are they coffee cups and handles? The coffee quilt is poured on the table, then the coffee will spill out, and then because a small side of the round cup and the handle are resting on the table, So there are no traces of coffee left in those two places..." Ono guessed.

"So, obviously someone picked up the coffee cup again after Mr. Nakame's death and put it on this small saucer, and after the coffee was all dried..." Kogoro also understood something.

"But in this way, who exactly did it? Obviously, in the secret room at the scene, even if we follow the method we just said, the prisoner can't do it after the coffee is dry, and why does this person do it? ?" Miwako asked suspiciously.

"Why do you want to do this, I don't know, but shouldn't it be clear who did it? It can only be Mr. Somei who entered the room with us and found the body first!" Touma said with a sneer.

Somei, who seemed to be extremely dissatisfied, immediately furiously said: "What do you mean at this time? What kind of evidence is this? It's just the marks printed by two coffee cups. Why do I have to cover them up? !"

"So, didn't I just say it? I still don't know the specific reason, it's just searching for clues on the spot..."

Dongma ignored his rage, but took a good time to continue to the other side of the table, where the chair was moved.

"Then let's take a look at the second clue. Don't you think the coffee traces on the floor are also strange?"

Listening to Dongma's words, everyone gathered around him again.

"There is no problem with the front foot on the left side of the chair. It should be the traces left by the coffee along the table and the foot of the chair after the coffee fell..."

Everyone followed Dongma's fingers and saw the flow of the entire coffee.

"But the crux of the problem is that on the carpet just in front of the right front foot, there is a circular blank in the center of the pool of coffee traces. Obviously it should be the same as the left front corner. The right front corner should be here when the coffee is poured. The position is right, but why did the chair move?" Dongma asked with a smile.

"That should be the reason why this guy moved!" Kogoro did not hesitate to point to the current only suspect, Somei.

"But Uncle Maori, if you move after the coffee is dry, then the traces of the coffee should be..."

However, the Dongma dialect was not finished, so Kogoro interrupted impatiently: "So the situation at that time should be like this, I will show it to you!"

Just talked and acted...

Chapter 1102 killing intent, the aroma from coffee (fourth)

However, Kogoro was immediately stunned in the next moment, because when he pointed the right front foot of the chair at the beach of coffee traces, he found that the left front foot that was originally on the other beach of coffee traces was a long distance away from the trace.

"Did you see? Uncle Maori? So it should be before the coffee dripped under the left front foot, the chair was still placed like this, but when the coffee was dropped, it moved in this direction to the left, and after that, the left front foot was on. The coffee slowly dripped to the ground, forming the traces we saw under the left front foot..."

As Dongma said, he pushed the chair back to its original position.

"It's true, and the chair can't move by itself..." Ono didn't seem to react.

"And it doesn't look like someone else is sitting there...Ah!" Miwako also added subconsciously, but the next moment, she reacted in surprise.

"Yes, this is evidence of someone sitting on this chair while the coffee was spilled..." The implication was that the prisoner was sitting on this chair here, not Kogoro and so on. The victim himself.

"But this way, because the door locks are all locked, and the anti-theft chain is attached, there is no one else in the room when they enter... In other words, this is an impossible crime!" Miwako was surprised! Shouted.

"Killing in the secret room!" Ono also shouted.

"Is it possible that the prisoner was still in the room when we came in, but left quickly before you arrived?" Kogoro reasoned.

But then Xiaolan interrupted: "Impossible, because when Dad, President Somei, and Dongma went in, Conan and I were always in the hallway, and no one had ever gone out!"

In other words, the two important clues they found now point to two completely different directions.

First of all, according to the traces of coffee on the table, the prisoner had already left the scene when Zhongmu died, and the person who placed a small saucer under the coffee cup after the coffee traces dried out can only be the first discoverer, Somei. .

But judging from the strange coffee traces at the foot of the chair, there should have been a person at the time of the crime. The moment the Nakamura coffee was spilled, he was still sitting on the chair. Then if that person is a prisoner, it is the first clue The result is contrary to that, and in that case the person himself cannot lock the door after leaving the room.

So in response to this impossible crime that seemed to be a completely secret room, Miwako could only say to everyone: "Everyone is ready to take action. According to the situation at the scene, it is very likely that the prisoner is still in the room, so even if it is A corner where it is impossible for Tibetans to be searched carefully for me!"

After speaking, he waved away the police officers who were accompanying him, and pulled Ono aside and said in a low voice: "At present, it seems that it is possible to plan this secret room murder. It is likely that President Somei is the first to come. Some key evidence and clues have been erased, so you should call their company now to confirm whether the other party really asked for a leave today because of physical conditions!"

However, Ono called the company, but was informed by a member of staff on duty: "President's physical condition? His condition has not been very good for these two or three days, especially since he didn't come to the company today..."

"That's right, do you know what the specific poor health is?" Ono asked next.

"No, it's not physical, I think it should be work..." the employee suddenly lowered his voice and said.

"jobs?"

"Yeah, probably because this special program was canceled..." The member whispered an amazing fact.

"Nani? Is it the show co-produced by the famous detective Kogoro Yumori?" Ono exclaimed in surprise, but fortunately he was outside and was not heard.

Except for the Dongma standing not far away...

"Then the interview with Mr. Nakame was cancelled, right?" Ono asked seriously.

"Yes, although the president said he would personally apologize to Mr. Mori, but I don't know if he said it..." The members were obviously worried about how their president would tell Kogoro about this.

However, for Ono and Touma, this is not just a question of how Somei should apologize.

And the member who didn’t realize Ono’s sudden silence continued, “By the way, I saw him in a nearby pharmacy this evening...”

"When is it exactly?" Ono asked next.

However, the member gave a contradictory and surprising fact, "I remember it was around half past six..."

"At half past six?" Ono glanced at Dongma in surprise, as if asking Dongma for help.

But Dongma just spread his hands. If what the member said is true, then this is a perfect alibi. There is still a long way to go from their production company to here.

'But the crux of the problem is, why didn't he tell this perfect alibi?'Tongma showed an interesting expression.

Then, in order to confirm the testimony, Ono called again to the pharmacy near their company.

The proprietress told her that Somei did come to buy stomach medicine at 6:30 today. "But why did the police ask about this?"

"Because Mr. Somei was involved in a small case..."
