"Hey, what's going on over there?"
"I heard there was a murder!"
A huge crowd of people crowded outside the cordon, peeking inside the fence.
Most of them were nearby residents who heard the sirens and came out to see what was happening.
As long as they don't cross the cordon...
Megure Jusan has no right to chase them away.
and...
He couldn't care about these little things now. The corpse in front of him was the worst thing.
Kill and dismember...
The nature is too bad!
It's simply outrageous!
Megure Jusan has been a detective for so many years, and he has rarely encountered dismemberment cases. If Makoto Sakaki hadn't suddenly contacted him...
Will Takase Fumito, who is at large, continue to commit crimes?
It's really crazy...
The forensic department is conducting a preliminary inspection of the scene. As for the body...
It's not what they are good at.
"Report!"
Half an hour later, Detective Tomi returned with a report from the scene:
"Inspector Megure, we didn't find any other suspicious items in Takase Fumihiro's house!"
“The deceased’s fingerprints were not found either!”
The absence of fingerprints means that the deceased has never been to Takase Fumito's home, which is consistent with his premise, but...
Or maybe he wiped it off.
The body was chopped in half, and the forensics class couldn't observe the cause of death!
Being able to perform fingerprint detection is already taking a lot of psychological pressure.
It is no exaggeration to say...
This was the most tragic scene they had ever seen.
"Can't the body be tested?"
Megure Jusan asked:
"We want to know the specific cause of death!"
"this..."
Detective Tomi was in a dilemma:
"Inspector Megure, you know that our forensic department is not responsible for autopsies..."
"How about making Takase Fumito a suspect, applying for a forensic autopsy permit from the court, and then handing the case over to the medical examiner?"
He made a sound suggestion.
In Japan, in order to improve the credibility of appraisals, the police, prosecutors, judges and appraisers must separate their powers in the process of initiating, implementing and accepting the appraisal conclusions.
That is to say, if the police catch a suspect, they need to hand him over to the public prosecutor.
Public prosecutors have the right to investigate and can initiate investigations on their own without the presence of the police, which is often done in reality.
It should be noted that both the Japanese police and prosecutors have the right to conduct independent investigations.
The police have the initial and primary duty to investigate criminal cases, while prosecutors can 'investigate any criminal case'.
In other words...
Once the police begin investigating a case, they must submit the case, along with the case files and evidence, to the prosecutor.
but!
If the suspect is caught on the spot and there is solid evidence or he confesses, the police can make an arrest.
At the same time, because the Metropolitan Police Department is under the National Police Agency, and the National Police Agency is the "public security" that maintains national security, its power overrides that of the Procuratorate.
In simple terms...
The Procuratorate needs to look at the face of the Police Department.
The Metropolitan Police Department is under the National Police Agency, and local police headquarters (such as Osaka) enjoy independent autonomy, which has led to a phenomenon:
The presence of the Procuratorate has been diluted.
When the three departments were first established, the Japanese government hoped that they would check and balance each other. In order to prevent any one of them from becoming too powerful, they were given different powers in a hierarchical manner to demonstrate the majesty of the legal system.
result...
Ahem, everyone knows what happens next.
Japan's judicial system has been in disarray for a long time.
This is also one of the main reasons why Megure Juzo and others agreed to let private detectives intervene in the case.
As long as the criminal is caught on the spot, the case does not need to be transferred to the procuratorate (and the credit has nothing to do with them).
Who would want to be criticized by others for the case they take over?
so...
Megure Jusan also invited Mori Kogoro to come.
There's no way, the distance is too close. It only takes 5 minutes to walk from the office to Takase Real Estate.
"Inspector Megure, I heard there was a murder?"
Slightly drunk, Kogoro Mori staggered over the cordon and burped loudly.
"Ah...Brother Maori, how much did you drink?"
Seeing that he looked drunk, Megure Jusan was not angry but happy.
Who doesn’t know his nickname Sleeping Kogoro?
It’s easier to fall asleep after drinking too much!
"Oh, not much, just a dozen bottles..."
Kogoro Maori waved his hand.
At this time, Sakaki Makoto saw...
Conan also followed unsteadily.
yes...
Without him, where would the Sleeping Kogoro come from?
While everyone was not paying attention, Conan quickly rushed into the wooden house to investigate the scene.
Not long after, he ran back with a pale face and hid behind Kogoro Mouri without saying a word.
"Did you find anything?"
Sakaki Makoto glanced at him and asked in a low voice.
"Don't... uh... don't talk to me..."
Conan covered his mouth, his face grim:
“I just had dinner...”
have to.
I'm afraid I can't count on Brother Kudo.
I still have to do it myself...
Sakaki Makoto stretched his shoulders, put on white gloves, stepped through the wooden door, and came to the corpse.
The body parts had been gathered together by the forensics department and stacked neatly on the table.
Takase Fumito had only completed half of the chopping process; the right half of the body and the woman's head were still intact.
