Conan Rick's Investigator

From the question Qin Zhibo asked just now, Conan knew that Qin Zhibo was also interested in this case, so he took the initiative to step forward and wanted to share his little discovery just now.

But as soon as Conan walked up, Qin Zhibo turned around and rejected Conan's following behavior.

"Let me alone, ok?"

After saying that, Qin Zhibo turned and left, leaving Conan standing there in a daze.

At this time, Conan's friends gathered around him.

"Conan, what did that uncle just say?"

"He said……"

Only then did Conan suddenly realize that this was another hidden test.

How could a first-grade student understand what he said in English?

……

After leaving the Junior Detective Team, Qin Zhibo is about to officially start his own search.

Although the police had already searched the library, Qin Zhibo still had to investigate the entire library himself.

After all, the system's investigation points can always provide some clues that cannot be captured by the human eye.

The reason why he first refused Conan to follow him was because Qin Zhibo planned to explore the entire library by himself.

If Conan followed him, he would inevitably feel that this person's behavior pattern was a bit strange.

Next, Qin Zhibo began his long journey of wandering around the library.

From the first floor to the second floor to the third floor, as well as the men's restrooms on each floor...

Qin Zhibo sneaked through all the reading rooms like a street scooter, but he couldn't find the investigation point.

Finally, when he searched a room with a green door on the fourth floor, Qin Zhibo finally found the only investigation point.

This is a mechanical room, which contains the main switch that controls the entire power system of the library and the sub-switches on each floor.

In addition, there is a special mechanical gate, and the investigation point is right on it.

【Survey√】

This is the mechanical gate that switches the elevator door from automatic to manual mode. There are traces of dust and scratches on it.

After the investigation and explanation, Qin Zhibo understood the purpose of this gate.

As long as this switch is pulled down, the elevator door will switch to manual mode, and the elevator maintenance worker can go down to the elevator shaft to carry out maintenance.

There are traces of dust being rubbed off on this gate, indicating that someone has used it recently.

Who will this person be?

Just as Qin Zhibo was thinking, he suddenly felt someone approaching him from behind.

Although the sound and breath were very subtle, Qin Zhibo still noticed it.

"Who?"

Qin Zhibo turned around suddenly, only to see Director Jinchuan standing behind him with an expressionless face.

There was a large shadow on half of Director Jinchuan's face and forehead. His eyes were like dead fish eyes, staring at Qin Zhibo. His nostrils were slightly enlarged and his mouth was slightly open.

If most people saw the curator with this face standing quietly behind them in such a dim environment, they would definitely be scared.

But for Qin Zhibo, whose willpower is as high as 90, it is just average.

"So you're the curator, what can I do for you?"

Qin Zhibo's tone was as righteous as that of the fire inspection, which made Director Jinchuan stunned for two seconds.

"No one other than the staff of this library is allowed to enter here."

"Oh, sorry."

Qin Zhibo apologized in a very casual tone, then walked around Director Jinchuan and headed out of the machine room.

But when he reached the door, Director Jinchuan suddenly called Qin Zhibo.

"Um... sir, actually, the foreign language books that recently arrived at the library haven't been sorted yet."

"Yutian mentioned you to me before. Since you know foreign languages, could you please do me a favor and stay here after closing time tonight to help sort these books?"

Qin Zhibo thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"That's no problem, it's a piece of cake."

"Then it's an appointment. It's at six o'clock in the evening in the library on the second floor."

"See you there or see you."

After saying that, Qin Zhibo left.

Director Jinchuan stood in the mechanical room for a long time without moving, and in his right hand, which was behind his back, he was tightly grasping a water pipe.

Chapter 42 Spoiler: The party’s surname is Qin!

The library's business hours passed in a flash, and it was time for the library to close.

People in the library left one after another, leaving Qin Zhibo alone in the second-floor library reading a French book.

Suddenly, Qin Zhibo felt someone approaching him from behind again, so he quickly turned around to look.

I saw Director Jinchuan walking in on tiptoe.

"curator?"

Director Jinchuan was a little confused when he saw Qin Zhibo suddenly turned around and looked at him.

Does this guy have eyes on the back of his head? Why can't I always sense someone behind me?

But this time, Director Jinchuan was not panicked at all because he had no weapons with him.

"I just went to check if there were any people left in the museum. It took me a little while."

"I'll bring those foreign language books over right away. Please wait here for a moment."

After saying this, Director Jinchuan left.

After Director Jinchuan left, Qin Zhibo quickly closed his French book and left the library.

Qin Zhibo agreed to Director Jinchuan's request to stay in the museum after it closed, but of course he also had his own plans.

That is the investigation point in the mechanical room.

During the day, since the elevator in the museum was always in use, Qin Zhibo was unable to switch the elevator door to manual mode, so he could only wait until the museum closed to implement his plan.

The investigation points given by the system are never given for free, if I'm not mistaken...

Qin Zhibo quickly ran up the stairs to the fourth floor, took out a nuclear lighter, and illuminated the completely dark mechanical room.

The firelight flickered in the dark room, and Qin Zhibo saw a crowbar leaning against the corner of the wall.

It might be useful later, so I picked it up.

Crowbar +1

Next, Qin Zhibo pulled down the mechanical gate that switched the elevator door mode, then went to the elevator on the fourth floor, pried the elevator door open with a crowbar, and pressed the ▼ button next to it.

The sound of the elevator cable moving could be heard slowly, followed by a body lying on the ceiling of the elevator.

really……

Just as Qin Zhibo guessed, Yutian Henan's body was above the ceiling of the elevator.

At the same time, the completion prompt of the side quest is also displayed next to the field of vision.

However, the elevator was still slowly ascending at this time. Qin Zhibo had no time to care about the completion of the task, but instead seized the opportunity to investigate the investigation points on Yutian and Nan's body.

【Survey√】

[The rope used to strangle the neck was not untied, and the fingerprints on it belonged to Hideharu Tsukawa]

Perhaps because the physical evidence was directly on the body this time, the investigation report directly gave the owner of the fingerprints on the rope.

And Hideji Tsukawa is the full name of the director of the Tsukawa Museum.

"So it's this old guy..."

After confirming that Hideharu Tsukawa was the criminal, Qin Zhibo changed his address from director to old man.

Moreover, Qin Zhibo knew that the old man had found an excuse to keep him in the museum today, and he must have wanted to kill him.

However, Qin Zhibo did not escape from here. After all, the investigation of the body had not yet been carried out. How could he leave?

Qin Zhibo calculated that it would take ten seconds to investigate the body, and the elevator was not enough time for him to do so when it was running.

He had to stop the elevator on the lower floor first, then go to the upper floor to pry open the elevator door, and then climb up the ladder in the elevator shaft to the side of the body.

As for that old guy Jinchuan, if he dares to come, let him taste the power of the Holy Sword of Physics.

……

In the utility room on the third floor, a storage cabinet slowly opened, and several little heads popped out from inside.

"It seems like there's really no one left..."

"But what should we do next, Conan?"

Ayumi looked excited, and Conan also changed his helpless expression when he went on adventures with the Junior Detective League in the past, and his face was full of enthusiasm.

"To find the body, of course!"

Conan showed a confident smile on his face, because Conan was 100% sure that Yutian's body was in the library!

During the day, Conan kept smelling a strange smell in the library.

Conan, who had been on the battlefield many times and had developed muscle memory in his nose, knew that this smell was none other than the smell of death emitted by a rotting corpse.

Originally, Conan wanted to tell Qin Zhibo about this discovery, but Qin Zhibo rejected Conan's invitation to join a team with a sentence "let me alone".

This gave Conan the idea of possessing the clues alone and solving the case.

snort!

You may ignore me today, but I will amaze you tomorrow!

Just as Conan was imagining Qin Zhibo's astonished expression when he knew the truth, a voice suddenly came from the stairs not far away.

"what?"

"You are?"

The Young Detectives looked in the direction of the voice and saw a figure standing at the entrance of the stairs with a crowbar in his hand.

The last rays of the setting sun shone through the window onto the figure's shoulders, as red as blood.

Not only that, due to the backlight, the front of the man's body was almost invisible and pitch black, with only the shiny black crowbar in his hand visible.

This look is very much like "Xiao Hei" who is about to commit a crime.

When she saw "Xiao Hei", Ayumi was so scared that she immediately burst into a scream.

"what!"

Ayumi's scream had the effect of increasing fear, causing the other friends to lose their will and cower together.

Even Conan leaned back unconsciously, a stern expression on his face.

Met you so soon?

A murderer roaming around the museum after closing time!

How to do?How to do?

Is there something kicking around?

No, I'd better wait until he gets close and then knock him out with the anesthetic needle.

Oh no! My watch was charging at the doctor's house!

Conan's thoughts were working at high speed, and a figure slowly walked down the stairs.

Leaving the backlit position, the figure shed Xiao Hei's classic skin, allowing Conan and others to see his real face.
