Chapter 241

A man is a boy until he dies!

Middle school teenagers have so much fun!

The words of wisdom do not deceive me!

Seeing Moori Kogoro's expression of triumphant prank success, Aoki Song twitched the corner of his mouth, why did he need a beating so much, and he wanted to beat him.

Maori Lan sat on the ground like a duck and looked at Maori Kogoro angrily.

"Uncle Maori, you went too far with your joke. Look, you scared Xiaolan and Conan." Aoki Song looked at Kogoro Maori speechlessly and said.

"Hahaha..." Mouri Kogoro laughed for a while before he stopped smiling. He had no idea of ​​being sorry for his daughter and Conan playing pranks.

"Dad!!!" Mao Lilan burst out at this time.

Seeing this, Aoki Song and Dr. A Li felt bad, and quickly found an excuse to sneak away.

After going downstairs, Aokisa didn't leave directly. Instead, he went to the Aokiya Oden restaurant next to him. He came here all the time and took a look at his grandparents and parents before leaving.

As a man who has a successful career and is not yet married, the disadvantage of meeting his elder parents is that he is always urged to get married, especially for someone like Aoki Song who has his career on the right track, a girlfriend, a house, a car, and a family.

Naturally, what a person cares most about is his emotional life.

Parents everywhere press for marriage.

At this point, Aokisong didn't stay long before he quickly told the Metropolitan Police Department that something was going on and left quickly.

Niina Kahori is not in the mood to talk about this recently. She has been counting the days on her calendar, waiting for her debut novel to be released.

After leaving his parents' house, Aokisong returned to the Metropolitan Police Department and explained the situation to the Megure Police Department.

After learning that there was something so convenient for checking fingerprints, the Mumu Police Department also became interested in it.

Because if it is like what Aoki Song said, it will be very convenient for their front-line criminal department. They no longer have to work hard to find fingerprints. They only need to take a flashlight to see if they are there. I don’t know.

How convenient.

The next two days were uneventful and no new cases occurred.

Aoki Song thought that Conan had "returned his evil ways", but he didn't expect that he went to other places to cause harm to others.

No, as soon as Conan came back, a new case happened.

The person who called the police was still Mao Lilan.

In this regard, the operators at the Metropolitan Police Department are already familiar with Mao Lilan's voice.

This case naturally fell on Qingmusong's head as expected.

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, or there’s something secretly going on. Aoki Matsu, who had previously closed the case in the first section and the third department, is now free. Shiratori Rensaburo, Sato Miwako and others are still working on ordinary cases.

Soon Aoki Song led Kazuma Saito and others to drive to the scene of the incident.

It's a high-end apartment building.

Aoki Song still used the same investigation process, first let the Forensic Division conduct an autopsy, and Saito Kazuma asked for information about the deceased.

"The deceased's name is Hijikata Yumi, he was 38 years old this year."

"The cause of death was suffocation due to strangulation of the neck. Judging from the wounds, the murderer should have used a thin thread. After strangling the deceased's neck, the deceased died of suffocation."

After hearing these two sentences, Aoki Song turned to Mouri Kogoro and asked: "I want to know if you really saw Mrs. Hijikata being killed with your own eyes?"

Mouri Kogoro nodded and confirmed: "Yes, although it is not clear whether we saw her immediately after she was killed. But at that time we walked to the balcony by chance, and then heard the phone ringing next door.

That is, there was a ringing sound in Mr. Okita’s room, and when we turned around to look, we saw Mrs. Hijikata falling from the room to the balcony. I thought she might have died a long time ago.”

Aoki Song looked at the position of the body. Something was wrong. The body was lying sideways on the balcony. How could it be poured out of the house?

Pour it out!"

Mouri Kogoro was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the position of the body, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little strange. "No, the body has been moved. We remember that we saw Mrs. Hijikata at that time. She seemed to be sitting on

on the ground, and then his upper body fell down."

While speaking, Kogoro Mouri also demonstrated it himself.

That is, the upper body is on the balcony and the lower body is in the room.

Instead of falling sideways on the balcony.

"And the window here was open at that time, so Mrs. Hijikata could pour it out." Mouri Kogoro pointed to the window and said: "But I remember when we rushed into the room just now, the glass door of the window was closed, and Mr. Hijikata was still

I opened the glass door and walked out."

Hearing this, Qingmu Song chuckled and said, "This is quite interesting. The body has been tampered with, but it still hangs on the balcony in a swaggering manner. It's really not afraid of being discovered."

However, Aoki Song looked out and saw a large river across from this balcony, with a very good view. But this also meant that there were no other residential buildings around, so no one could really see what was on the balcony here from the outside.

Aoki Song continued to ask Mouri Kogoro: "What happens next?"

Mouri Kogoro thought for a while and said: "After discovering this situation, a few of us rushed here immediately, but the door to his room was locked. We knocked several times but there was no response inside the room.

We asked Mr. Hijikata to stay here alone to monitor the actions inside. As for me, I went downstairs to get the backup key. After finally getting the key, he also opened the door, and the body looked like this when we came in.

Fell on the balcony."

Okitaichi on the side quickly retorted: "Please, please don't talk nonsense, Miss Yongmei will die on the balcony of my house. To be honest, I am also surprised! And I didn't hear any knocking on the door at all. Besides, I

Is there any reason to kill Miss Yongmei?"

"How dare you say that!" After hearing this, Kozaburo Hijikata, who was sitting aside, suddenly got angry, grabbed Okitaichi by the collar of his clothes, and said viciously: "Now that things have happened, you still want to pretend to be innocent?

, I have been outside the gate, monitoring your actions from the security eyes. Tell me, who else could kill her besides you."

Seeing this, Aoki Song quickly asked people to pull away the excited Hijikata Kozaburo, "Mr. Hijikata, I know that Mrs. Hijikata was killed. You are feeling very sad now, but please calm down."

Then Aoki Song looked at Mouri Kogoro and asked: "Uncle Mouri, you just said that after you came out of Mr. Hijikata's house, you found that Mr. Okita's door was locked, so you went down to get the spare key. Mr. Hijikata was the only one at that time.

Stay outside Mr. Okita’s front door, right?”

"Yes, I went to the front desk management office on the first floor to get the backup key. Xiaolan and Conan went to the nearby police station to report the crime. At that time, Mr. Hijikata was the only one outside Mr. Okita's door." Mouri Kogoro said.

"Mr. Hijikata's room should be equipped with a landline. Why didn't you call the police? Why did you leave Mr. Hijikata there alone? Aren't you afraid that if Mr. Okita was really the murderer and saw Mr. Hijikata alone outside, just open the door and kill him?"

Also killed?" Aoki Songyan asked with a sharp angle and sharp words.

Mouri Kogoro was stunned when he heard this, thought for a while, and said with a complicated expression: "At that time, Mr. Hijikata rushed over first and ran to Mr. Okita's door and knocked on the door. No one answered, and the door was locked.

I suggested that we go downstairs to get the backup key, but Mr. Hijikata said that he was worried that Mr. Okita would take the opportunity to escape, so he had to stay there and guard.

In addition, I originally asked Xiaolan to call the police here, but Mr. Hijikata said that there is a police station near the apartment, and it would be faster and more convenient to go to them directly than to call the police. I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that Mr. Hijikata said

It makes sense, so I went downstairs with Xiaolan and Conan."

Thinking about it now, he, Mao Lilan, and Conan were all ordered around by Kozaburo Hijikata.

"What do you mean by that?" Hijikata Kozaburo also noticed at this time that there was something wrong with Aokimatsu's words, and he quickly said: "Is there anything wrong with my thinking at the time?

After the murderer kills someone, he will probably escape when there is no one around, and there is indeed a police station near our apartment. It is indeed more convenient and faster to go to them directly than calling the police."

【hehe!】

After listening to Hijikata Kozaburo's words, Aoki Song and Conan chuckled inwardly.

It was because of Ke Xue that Aoki Song took the initiative to invite Kogoro Mori and Conan to visit, and a murder case occurred. Except for Okino Yoko, in most cases, this person who took the initiative to invite was the murderer.

In addition, the deceased was Hijikata Kozaburo's wife, Hijikata Kozaburo's suspicion became even greater.

You must know that in a general homicide case, the first object of suspicion is the person next to the deceased, then the parents and children, the enemies, and then the relatives and friends.

In addition to this case, even before careful investigation, Aokimatsu discovered two things that were wrong, which made Aokimatsu think that Kozaburo Hijikata might be the murderer.

Of course, Aokimatsu just felt that Okitaichi was also suspected before there was any irrefutable evidence.

As for Conan, he is different from Aoki Matsu. Aoki Matsu relied on Ke Xue, while Conan experienced what just happened with Hijikata Kozaburo.

He saw that when Uncle Mori said that Okitaichi was the murderer, Kozaburo Hijikata, who was still holding Mrs. Hijikata's body, raised the corners of his mouth and snickered.

This all shows that Okitaichi is not the murderer, but Hijikata Kozaburo is the murderer.

but……

When Conan thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Aoki Matsu. In fact, he initially thought Okitaichi was the murderer. But he inadvertently saw the raised corners of Hijikata Kozaburo's mouth, and then he thought Hijikata Kozaburo was the murderer.

However, Aoki Song didn't know that he didn't see the corner of the other party's mouth rising. But from what Aoki Song said just now, Conan could tell that Aoki Song was also suspicious of Hijikata Kozaburo.

Do you really think Kozaburo Hijikata is suspicious, or is it like Aokimatsu said before that when he didn't find any irrefutable evidence to prove who the murderer was, he would suspect everyone, even Uncle Mouri.

If it's the latter, that's okay, but if it's the former... it shows that he is really not as good as Aoki Song.

Damn it, I have been immersed in the gentle land these days and have lost my vigilance.

Conan shook his head, trying to wake himself up and be more alert.

"Mr. Hijikata, I am just asking for the details of the case according to the case handling procedures. You don't have to think too much. As the husband of the deceased, you are always the subject of suspicion no matter how you handle the case." Aoki Song said very calmly.

"How could I kill Yumi?" Kozaburo Hijikata immediately retorted.

Okitaichi on the side said: "How can you not be possible? Miss Yongmei has been divorcing you recently. I heard that Miss Yongmei said that she wants you to pay a large amount of alimony.

You think Miss Yongmei cheated on me, that’s why she wanted a divorce, and you didn’t want to give her and me an advantage, so you killed Miss Yongmei and put the blame on me.”

Here.

There is a reason and motive for the murder.

In Aokimatsu's eyes, Hijikata Kozaburo is even more suspicious.

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Aoki Song quickly said to Okitaichi: "Then let me ask you a few questions first. First of all, were you in the room between 4 o'clock and 4:30 when the crime occurred?

What to do?"

Okitaichi said without thinking: "I will stay in this room and listen to my music, because Mr. Hijikata asked me to stay in my room and wait for him in the evening."

Aoki Song turned to Hijikata Kozaburo and asked: "Mr. Hijikata, is this true?"

Hearing this, Hijikata Kozaburo nodded and said: "Yes, because I don't know whether the rumors about Yumi and Mr. Okita are true or false. I want to confirm with him, so I ask him to take time."

Hearing this, Mouri Kogoro said thoughtfully: "It seems that the rumors from the outside world may not be groundless. Maybe before Mr. Hijikata arrived here, Miss Yumei came to you first to want to unify the words.

Then you had a quarrel and you killed her."

Hearing this, Okitaichi said angrily: "Didn't I tell you before, Miss Yongmei has never been to my place?"

"However, there are other suspicious factors about you." Mouri Kogoro looked at Okitaichi and said.

Okitaichi was stunned, "What?"

"I think you should know that the roles Mr. Hijikata usually plays are either ancient government officials or impartial law enforcers." As he spoke, Kogoro Mouri looked at Okitaichi and said, "But the ones you play are either thieves or spies, or they are other people."

The love rivals are all unsightly bad characters."

"What's the connection between the two?" Okitaichi asked doubtfully.

"Even if it's a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence," Mouri Kogoro said.

After listening to Mouri Kogoro's words, Aoki Song roughly guessed what he was going to say, but what kind of reasoning was this? It wasn't even outrageous.

So he couldn't help but said: "Uncle Maori, if it has nothing to do with the case, please wait until the case is over. And compared to him, you appear at the crime scene every time. Isn't it a coincidence?"

At this time, a criminal who was searching the room said: "Police department, we found something similar to fishing line on the floor."

Okitaichi said nervously: "Wait a minute, I don't know why there is that line in my house."
