Chapter 116 Despair
Conan hung up the phone, put his hands in his pockets, and walked toward the crime scene with a heavy expression.
It is now known that the victim's death may be related to Fushimi Ami, but she may not be the murderer.
But... what did she do in the few minutes after she helped Shotaro Ohara upstairs?
Conan stood in the room where the deceased was staying and glanced around. Then he walked to the window, opened it, and looked down.
This height is difficult for ordinary people to climb without tools.
If the murderer is indeed one of those four people, they are clearly just ordinary people.
Besides, he didn't see any signs of tools being used...
After closing the window, Conan crouched down next to the body to examine it closely, but again, he found no useful traces.
He scratched his head in frustration.
After wandering around the scene several times without finding any clues, Corgi returned dejectedly to the living room on the first floor.
Kuno Naya glanced at him casually, took a sip of water to hide the upward curve of her lips.
Everything is going according to her script.
This is so heartwarming!
"Ms. Nakazato, may I ask how long it took you to walk from here to the convenience store?"
Inspector Megure asked Nakazato Asaka.
"It took about ten minutes," Asaka Nakazato replied truthfully after thinking for a moment.
"Are you doubting me?" After answering, she changed the subject and said calmly, "If you don't believe what I'm saying, you can ask the owner of that convenience store. I left home at 12:28 and arrived at the convenience store at exactly 12:38. I chatted with the owner for a few minutes then."
She spoke with great certainty, but Inspector Megure still had someone confirm it again.
Upon receiving a positive answer, Officer Takagi, acting as a "tool," also appeared with the information he had gathered.
Inspector Megure flipped through the files, his gaze finally settling on Ami Fushimi. "Did your sister and niece commit suicide by jumping off a building three years ago because of Shotaro Ohara?"
Fushimi Ami pursed her lips, lowered her head, and remained silent for a while before nodding. "Yes, I think it was all because of Ohara that my sister and my niece died."
"So in that recording, was the deceased calling out your niece, Kakuta Kingetsu?" Inspector Megure asked again.
“Who knows…” This time, Fushimi Ami did not fully answer his question, a hint of hatred and disgust appearing on her face. “I don’t want this dead man to still be able to call my niece by her name.”
"What? So Miyuki's death was because of Oohara!?"
Matsuyama Kanta suddenly exclaimed in shock.
"Otherwise what?" Nakazato Asaka looked at him with a sneer. "So you didn't believe a word Miyuki said back then? How shameless. I even feel that you were partly responsible for Miyuki's death."
“I…” Matsuyama Kanta hesitated, then silently lowered his head and stopped speaking.
"So, what did Uncle Ohara do that led to the deaths of Aunt Miyuki and Miss Kakuta Kin'getsu?" Kuno Naya asked curiously, then waved her hand apologetically, "Ah, I didn't mean to remind Aunt Ami of sad things..."
Fushimi Ami gave a bitter laugh, her gaze behind her glasses looking at Kuno with a touch of sadness. "Because... he violated... Kaneki."
“After that incident, Jin Yue became depressed and locked herself in her room all day. Eventually, she couldn’t take it anymore and committed suicide by jumping off a building.”
"At the time, there was absolutely no evidence to prove that scumbag had done such a terrible thing, and unable to get justice for her daughter, Miyuki jumped off the building in despair..."
