My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 120 Explosion Case

He went to the Mihua Library to write a book report, and then Conan drank half a bottle of Laobaigan to "suicide". He was hungover for several days, and as a result, there was no murder in Tokyo for a week.

Sure enough, there is only one way to seal the power of Death - let Conan lie on the bed, so that the power of Death will not spread.

Because Conan was out of work for a week, Aokisong made an appointment with the new girl during this week. The two had a good chat. After getting to know each other for a while, Aokisong felt that he could confess his love when he found a good opportunity.

However, happy days are always very short-lived. After drinking Laobaigan again but not turning back into Kudo Shinichi, Conan accepted his fate and stopped tormenting himself. The God of Death is officially on the line.

It was like the power that had been suppressed before now had an outlet. As soon as it came online, the God of Death took a life.

Aoki Song came back from his morning run and just opened the door and went in.

Aoki Momoxiang said: "Osomatsu, the Metropolitan Police just called, saying that they have something urgent to contact you and asking you to call them back."

"I understand." Aoki Song responded, then walked to the landline and dialed the number of the Metropolitan Police Department.

The receptionist girl, after hearing Aokimatsu reported her home, immediately told him that a murder had occurred in Tokyo, and it was an explosion. She asked him to dispatch the police quickly, without having to go to the Metropolitan Police Department, and go directly to the scene of the murder - Yoneka Town.

Golf driving range.

With a murder happening so early, Aoki Song had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, when he hurriedly drove to the golf driving range of Miwa Town, he saw the familiar trio - Mouri Kogoro, Mouri Ran and Conan.

The corner of Aoki Song's mouth twitched. Conan had only been "dead" for a week, and there was an explosion death case just after it went online. It was indeed the God of Death.

Today is another day when death comes.

Aoki Song first went to check the body that fell on the ground. The front of the victim was completely exposed to the bomb, so the entire front of the person had traces of being bombed and burned. It looked very miserable.

When inspecting the body that died due to the explosion, Aokisong privately made up for his mistakes and had not yet made it this far, so after taking a quick look and confirming that there was nothing he could do, he handed the matter over to the criminals of the forensic department.

Then he began to ask other people standing here what happened.

The first person to ask was Mouri Kogoro.

"Detective Mori, could you please tell me about the case?" Aoki Song asked.

Mouri Kogoro thought for a while and then said: "I came here to practice golf at half past six. Not long after, the three of them came in with the victim. Then the two sides started practicing without disturbing each other, and waited until the man finished practicing and left.

After arriving here, it didn’t take long for me to hear the sound of an explosion behind me, and then I ran over and saw that the victim was dead. I immediately called Xiaolan to call the police.”

Aoki Song nodded when he heard this, then looked at Saito Kazuma aside and asked: "Has the identity of the victim been figured out?"

"The victim is Eisuke Tachibana, the manager of Goi Electric's product development department." Saito Kazuma replied.

After getting Kazuma Saito's answer, Aoki Song looked at the three suspects next to him in the classic "One of the four will die, and the murderer will choose one of three" and asked: "Please introduce yourselves, you three."

."

The middle-aged man who looked to be the oldest, who was the person pointed by Kogoro Mouri just now, was the first to introduce himself: "Police officer, I am Minoru Yasui, the section chief of Goi Electric Product Development Department, and this is Goi Electric Product Co., Ltd.

Director of the Development Department, Okubo Tatsuya." Minoru Yasui pointed at a seriously injured person and said.

Then he pointed to another man whose arm was only injured and introduced: "This is Tomoshi Minami, a member of the Goi Electric Product Development Department. We are all under Manager Tachibana."

Aoki Song took a small notebook and asked: "Do you come to this place often? Or do you come here suddenly for something?"

"We come here often because the company is very close to here, but Manager Tachibana is here for the last time today." Minoru Yasui answered honestly.

"The last time!?" Aoki Song heard this and narrowed his eyes. "Why did you say that? Could it be that you already knew that something would happen to Manager Tachibana today?"

"No." Minoru Yasui quickly waved his hand and explained: "It's because next week, he will be promoted by the company and transferred to New York to be the president of the branch. This matter has been announced within the company and has been announced today.

It’s Friday, and Manager Orange will be packing his luggage at home during the two days of the weekend, and will fly to New York next Monday, so I said today will be the last time Manager Orange comes here.”

Hearing this, Aoki Song nodded and said that he understood. "In other words, if someone has a grudge against the victim, then today is the last chance to take action in recent years." After all, it takes at least several years to be the president of a branch in New York.

I will return to Tokyo next year.

At this time, the criminal from the forensics department came over and said: "Report to the police department. The inspection results show that black gunpowder was used in this case. Also, can the police department come over here?"

Upon hearing this, Aoki Song immediately closed his notebook and followed the Forensics Division to the vicinity of the body.

Then the forensic officer pointed to some fragments on the ground and said: "These are fragments of long-distance club heads, and the other fragments scattered around here are fragments of golf balls." Then he picked up something and walked to Qingki Song.

He said in front of him: "Please take a look at this again."

"What is this?" Aoki Song asked, looking at the golf ball that was blown up, leaving only half a sphere.

"We think this is a message, that is to say..." Before the criminal forensics officer could finish speaking, Mouri Kogoro interjected: "The bomb was originally installed in the golf ball. The moment it was struck with the club,

The bomb will explode due to impact."

Upon hearing this, the criminal from the forensics department immediately said: "Detective Maori is right!"

Hearing this, Aoki Song picked up half the golf ball from the forensic criminal's hand with his gloved hand. After careful observation, Aoki Song discovered a problem - the ball had red cross lines on it, and

The other balls scattered on the ground are blue cross lines.

So Aokimatsu looked at the manager of the Minaka Golf Driving Range and asked: "Mr. Katsuta, what color are the cross lines painted on each ball here?"

"They are all green." Manager Katsuda replied: "Officer, look, the golf balls here all have their own green line, and there are no cross lines."

Aoki Song frowned when he heard this: "Isn't this blue? How do you say it is green!"

Is there something wrong with his eyes?

It's obviously blue!

Mouri Kogoro interjected after hearing this: "Oh, this is the habit of people our age. We are used to saying blue is pronounced the same as green [青い], don't worry about these small problems. But in this way

If so, the red crossed lines are a sign of a bomb!"

Aoki Song frowned when he heard this, he always felt something was wrong.

First of all, according to Ke Xue's theorem, most of Mouri Kogoro's reasoning must be listened to in reverse.

Secondly, if there is really a bomb installed in this golf ball, and the power can kill everyone, can such a large part of the golf ball be left behind? Such a powerful force should make all the balls turn into pieces.

Bar!

Aoki Song has no impression of this case, so he dare not make a casual judgment.

I can only keep this doubt in my heart.

Then in order to confuse the murderer, Aoki Song followed the words of Mouri Kogoro and said: "The question now is, is this bombing aimed at the victim personally, or at this golf driving range, or maybe even at a

Indiscriminate terrorist attacks!”

There have been quite a few terrorist attacks these days, especially Neon, which is known internationally for its tough attitude towards terrorists. In the past decade or so, Neon has encountered quite a few terrorist attacks.

For example, the year before last, Neon suffered the deadliest terrorist attack - the Tokyo subway sarin gas incident.

Sarin is a colorless, invisible, odorless poisonous gas that can invade the human body through breathing or through the skin and conjunctiva of the eyes. It blocks enzymes in the body and damages the nervous system. After being invaded, the pupils will shrink.

Symptoms such as difficulty breathing, narrowing of the bronchi, and violent convulsions can lead to death from suffocation within a few minutes in severe cases.

Atropine, oxime, etc. must be used immediately for treatment and artificial respiration to save the patient. However, even after rescue, the poisonous gas may cause damage to the nerves, brain and liver.

The Tokyo subway sarin gas incident caused more than 5,510 injuries, 1,036 hospitalizations, and 12 deaths. Even the survivors were left with lifelong disabilities. Only the 9.11 terrorist attacks exceeded this number of casualties.

Then the year before this year, that is, the year before last, Matsumoto City in Nagano Prefecture also suffered a terrorist attack involving sarin gas. A total of 29 people were killed and more than 6,500 people were injured.

Neon's police are not useless. The day after the case occurred, they identified the murderer - Aum Shinrikyo, which has more than 130 strongholds across Neon.

Although more than 40 leaders and believers were arrested, who knows if any of them slipped through the net.

Aoki Song was already sure in his heart that this was definitely not a terrorist attack, but a classic murderer choosing one of three. However, in order to confuse the murderer, he still had to tell this possibility.

Aokimatsu's plan was successful. After he expressed his guess, Tomoshi Minami, a member of Goi Electric's product development department, stepped forward and said: "I think the murderer's purpose is to murder the manager!"

Hearing this, Aoki Song raised his eyebrows. Was this because he was impatient and wanted to frame this case on someone, or was he hiding something else?

"Why do you think so?" Aoki Song asked.

"Because the three people here, including me, Director Okubo, and Section Chief Yasui, we all have enough hatred for the manager to let us kill the manager!" Minami Chishi said.

good!

Self-destructively beautiful!

Qing Mu Song felt happy when he heard this. Well said!

But you still have to put on a surprised expression on your face and say "What did you say?"

Minoru Yasui on the side was also shocked when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about, Minami Chishi!"

On the other hand, after listening to Minami Chishi's words, Okubo Tatsuya lowered his head and thought for a moment, then chuckled: "That's right, you and I do have sufficient motives to kill the manager."

Okubo Tatsuya raised his head and said with some memories: "Let me tell you, there have been three new product ideas before this, and they were all submitted by the manager in his own name. Minami Chishi, the same goes for you.

I don’t know how many times I have made suggestions, but they have never been accepted.”

After hearing what Tatsuya Okubo said, Minoru Yasui quickly retorted: "But I'm different. I don't have any problems with the manager!"

Okubo Tatsuya heard this and said sarcastically: "Director Yasui, you don't have to lie anymore. We all know it. In fact, your most beloved girlfriend was snatched away by the manager a long time ago."

After hearing this, Minoru Yasui quickly retorted: "No, it was after I dumped her that the manager started dating her."

After Mouri Kogoro listened to Okubo Tatsuya's self-destruction, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. He made a fist with his right hand and punched his left hand. He said with excitement: "I understand, I understand, the police department, I know who it is."

Kill Manager Orange!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at Maori Kogoro. Upon seeing this, Maori Kogoro said proudly: "First of all, judging from the method of committing the crime, the murderer put the golf ball loaded with bombs with other golf balls in advance.

The balls were mixed together so that the victim could hit them with the club. In this case, the most suspect person is the person who put the ball into the basket from the ball machine and then put the ball into the victim's basket."

As soon as Mouri Kogoro said this, Conan immediately pointed at Okubo Tatsuya and said: "In this case, isn't the murderer Uncle Okubo? I saw that he was the one who took the golf ball and poured it into the victim's basket.

.At that time, Uncle Nan happened to go to the toilet, and Uncle Yasui was next to his machine again."

Hearing this, Minoru Yasui immediately pointed at Okubo Tatsuya and said angrily: "So it was you who did the murder! This little brother is right. Minami Chishi and I didn't touch the basket where the manager put the ball at all today, so we put the ball in the basket."

The golf ball loaded with bombs and the person placed in the basket are none other than you! The murderer is you!"

"No, you can't say that!" Mouri Kogoro said immediately after hearing this: "Mr. Nan was not at the scene when he took the golf ball, so there is no suspicion of committing a crime. But Mr. Yasui, you are different.

You just gave part of your ball to the victim."

Hearing this, Aoki Song glanced at Nan Zhishi.

The topic he stirred up ended up being that he was cleared of suspicion. Was this intentional or unintentional?

If it were an ordinary case, Aoki Song might not suspect Minami Tomoshi, but this is a case involving Conan. The murderers in these cases are more cunning than the last, and those who are obviously very active and have obvious evidence of abnormality are more likely to do so.

Could be the murderer!

This is the Ke Xue principle!

As a senior scientist, Aoki Song knows a lot about science.

Regarding the questionable time of receiving the ball, Minami happened to go to the toilet and was not at the scene.

Is this a coincidence or is it intentional?

Anyway, no matter what others think, Aoki Song's suspicion of Minami Chishi has deepened. Of course, he has not ruled out the suspicion of the other two people, who made him forget about this case.

Until evidence is found, the suspicions of the three cannot be easily ruled out!

After listening to Mouri Kogoro's words, Yasui Minoru was sweating profusely and wanted to explain: "That's..."

But Mouri Kogoro was confident that his reasoning was correct, so he interrupted him directly, and then reasoned: "You might also use that opportunity to put a golf ball filled with bombs in the victim's basket."

"Please wait a moment!" Minoru Yasui was afraid that he would really be regarded as the murderer. He quickly waved his hand and explained: "If I put the golf ball loaded with bombs in, if the bomb exploded at that time, I say it might not happen.

They died together! It’s not me, it’s really not me!”

Faced with Yasui Minoru's question, Mouri Kogoro had already thought of the answer: "Based on the structure of this machine, the last golf ball put in should be the last one to come out, so you should put the basket in before the victim."

The ball in the basket was finished. Then, in order to catch the ball with the bomb out, didn't you finish the ball in a few strokes?"

"No, I have a habit of beating fast!" Seeing that he was about to be identified as the murderer by Kogoro Mori, Minoru Yasui explained eagerly with sweat on his head: "That's right, Okubo, Minami Chishi!"

Okubo Tatsuya and Minami Chishi looked at each other after hearing this, not knowing how to answer Yasui Minoru's question.

But for Mouri Kogoro, this was a sign of Yasui's anxiety, so he smiled proudly and said confidently: "Then let me ask you another question, where were you when the bomb exploded?

"

Yasui Minoru's face changed drastically when he heard this. He was...

"At that time, Mr. Okubo had no suspicion because, like Mr. Minami, they were at the scene of the crime after the incident, so they were affected by the explosive power of the bomb." Mouri Kogoro said and looked at Yasui Minoru

, said with a hint of fun: "But you? If I remember correctly, you were at the exit at that time."

"That's because..." Before Minoru Yasui finished speaking, Mouri Kogoro interrupted: "Because you saw the bomb-laden golf ball marked with a red line, so you hurriedly ran to seek refuge.

Come on!"

"No!" Minoru Yasui heard this and quickly explained loudly: "I went to order coffee from the counter."

"coffee?"

"Yes, every time the manager finishes playing, he likes to drink coffee brewed by the landlady here. So, every time before he finishes playing, I will go to the counter ten minutes in advance and ask her to start preparing the coffee."

Minoru Yasui explained.

"It's like this, it's indeed like this." The staff at the golf driving range nearby said quickly: "Because when we make coffee here, we start from grinding coffee beans to ensure the best taste of the coffee, so we all hope that guests can prepare it in advance

tell us."

Aoki Song asked at this time: "Every time they come here to play golf, Mr. Yasui goes to the counter and informs you to start preparing coffee?"

"Yes, it's Mr. Yasui every time." the staff member confirmed.

"But when the bomb exploded, you were the only one who happened to leave the scene of the crime. No matter how you say it, this is too much of a coincidence!" Mouri Kogoro still doubted Yasui Minoru, so he turned to Aoki Song and said

: "Police Department, I still suspect that Mr. Yasui is the murderer. To be cautious, I would like to ask the Police Department to check his luggage."

Hearing this, Aoki Song was speechless. Who would be smart enough to put the evidence in himself and his luggage after killing someone? You must know that the police have the right to search the suspects in the case and check their belongings. If this is the case, then

Well, the difficulty of solving the case has plummeted.

However, Aoki Song thought of the Maori elimination method. Although Uncle Maori's reasoning was wrong most of the time, he would occasionally make mistakes and discover new clues.

so……

Aoki Song looked at Minoru Yasui and asked, "Is that okay? Mr. Yasui."

"Okay, no problem!" Minoru Yasui immediately agreed to this. In his heart, he did not kill anyone, so he was naturally not afraid of police inspection.

Aokimatsu glanced at the criminal next to him. The other person understood and stepped forward to check Yasui Minoru's luggage.

Surprisingly, several golf balls with crossed red lines were found in Minoru Yasui’s luggage.

"Police department, we found this thing in his golf bag!" the inspector came over and said holding three golf balls.

Aoki Song took a closer look and saw that it was a golf ball with crossed red lines on it.

this……

No way, no way, no way!

Uncle Maori actually got his reasoning right for once!?

It’s impossible. There is no one related to Uncle Maori in this case, and it’s not the theater version of “Conspiracy on the Horizontal Line.” How could he be right in his reasoning!

It's not that Aoki Song looked down on the other party and caught him having an affair. Uncle Maori was very accurate in catching him every time. But when it came to solving the case, Uncle Maori didn't know if he was put under the halo of being mentally retarded by the God of Death. His reasoning was basically

It's all wrong.

Holding Ke Xue's theorem, which Uncle Maori could never reason about, Aoki Song's mind began to think quickly.

If Minoru Yasui was not the murderer, how could a golf ball with red crossed lines be found in his luggage?

Then there is only one possibility, that is - the murderer secretly hid it in Yasui Minoru's luggage!

When Minoru Yasui on the side saw this, he was completely stunned, "How is this possible!"

However, Mouri Kogoro was very happy when he saw this, and said righteously to Yasui Minoru: "This is the most powerful evidence! If the ball does not work, with these balls, you can also use it as a backup!"

"That's not the case, I know nothing and have done nothing!" Minoru Yasui said loudly and eagerly.

However, Mouri Kogoro was convinced that Yasui Minoru was the murderer and ignored Yasui Minoru's cries of injustice. He only thought that Yasui Minoru would not shed tears without seeing the coffin. After all, which prisoner would not cry out for injustice when he was arrested.

So Mouri Kogoro smiled proudly.

But Aoki Song doesn’t think so!
