Chapter 2001 2009 [The Magical Use of Baker Street Guerrillas] Ask for monthly ticket (`)
As we all know, boyfriends and girlfriends, colleagues in the company, financial disputes... these are the factors that are most likely to lead to murders.
And the man in front of me actually met three of the above criteria: suspicious, very suspicious!
Kurata Seiji was keenly aware of the crisis and quickly denied it: "I did date Kiyomi and gave her a gift, but she didn't accept me at all! She has another boyfriend, whom she just started dating not long ago. It has nothing to do with me."
The police was silent for a moment: "Being dumped, plus she accepted a lot of gifts from you but didn't accept you... Isn't this even more suspicious."
"It really wasn't me!" Kurata Seiji regretted, and immediately glared at the female senior who had just exposed his shortcomings, "What nonsense are you talking about with the police!"
The female senior snorted coldly: "That's right, I didn't lie..."
The noisy sounds drifted to the next carriage.
The young woman glanced at Jiang Xia, feeling embarrassed by her colleagues' quarrel. She whispered, "We usually have a very good relationship. It was because of this incident that things got into this state today."
Jiang Xia: "It seems like you were arguing before getting in the car."
"..." Yukiko Mori, "In fact, it wasn't just Kiyomi who died today, but also our president. The company is in a mess now, and everyone has to deal with a lot of mess, so everyone is in a bad mood."
Hashimoto Maya felt even more sympathetic towards her: "..." I understand, I understand. It was all Usa's fault.
But on second thought, there was nothing he could do: it was the company that had unanimously prevented him from buying land. Wuzo finally wanted to do some legal business, but there were stumbling blocks everywhere on the road, so in the end, all the stumbling blocks were broken.
"Hashimoto-nii-san." An innocent and childish voice suddenly floated over. Conan pushed his glasses and looked at him curiously, "What are you thinking about? Why is your expression so strange?"
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
Damn it, I muttered a few words to my boss in my heart, and even a colleague with the worst performance was watching me and was ready to report me. My life is becoming more and more hopeless.
Fortunately, this little ghost couldn't read minds, so Hashimoto Maya held the cross on her collar, sighed compassionately, and established her image as a novice detective: "I hope we can solve the case as soon as possible and clear the deceased's name."
Conan: “…”
He shook off the goose bumps that appeared on his body.
A bit fake.
Jiang Xia smiled encouragingly. He looked at his watch and then at Yukiko Mori: "It's time for you to go over. The sooner the case is solved, the sooner you can go home."
Yukiko Mori nodded, stood up and followed him, and they returned to the next carriage together.
…
"After get off work tonight, the three of us went out for dinner and then took the subway. Qingmei didn't come with us."
The male office worker sighed and told the police what happened tonight: "Qingmei walked with us for a while after get off work, and when we reached the subway entrance on No. 2 Street, she left us and went in alone.
"The last time I saw her was when the body was discovered just now. I heard from you that the time of death was an hour ago. Was she just getting on the subway? Then this matter has nothing to do with us at all. The three of us have been together the whole time. We have an alibi. It's impossible for someone to kill someone on a sealed subway from such a distance."
Based on their description, the police found nearby surveillance footage, which was indeed as the three said. When they separated at the subway station, the deceased was still alive.
It seems that they are not suspicious.
But if it wasn't these three people who killed the person, then the next task would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Inspector Megure's scalp was tingling, and he rarely showed a little questioning spirit: "You three are familiar with each other, and it is difficult to prove your alibi. There is no surveillance to keep track of your whereabouts. Mr. Kurata, how long have you been unable to get the deceased's love?"
"?" Kurata Seiji heard his subtext, "I already said that I didn't kill him! And even if the murderer is really among the three of us, I'm not the one with the greatest motive--"
He suddenly turned to Yukiko Mori and said, "Yukiko, you have always hated Kiyomi because your boyfriend was taken away from you."
Yukiko Mori was shocked: "I never said I hated her, don't spit blood on me."
Kurata Seiji turned a deaf ear to him and continued to exert his strength. He turned to the female senior and said, "And you! Aren't you competing with Qingmei for the position? She is a junior who has just arrived and is on the same level as you, a senior employee. You have long been resentful of her."
The female senior was also shocked: "I, I do have competition with her, but now the president is dead, why would I kill her? Not to mention the position, even the company is about to go bankrupt!"
Halfway through her speech, she suddenly realized that she had let something slip, and quickly changed her words: "Of course, even if the company didn't go bankrupt, I wouldn't kill her, so don't make random accusations!"
Hashimoto Maya: “…”
This pile of murderous arrows is really complicated. Not to mention that they still have the land that Wu Zo wants. Even if they don't have it, this company is a place that Wu Zo would want to take a look at when passing by. It is destined to be doomed.
Thinking of this, he silently touched his neck and felt a small jade Buddha. He then clasped his hands together and prayed with compassion.
Haibara Ai watched this scene silently: "..." This person has mixed beliefs. Wasn't he gesturing with a cross not long ago? What exactly does he believe in?
Unlike the police who watched them expose their secrets in silence, the detective was obviously accustomed to this kind of scene. He was quietly looking through the deceased's belongings and the things that the other three people had taken out and were waiting to be inspected.
In addition to common daily necessities such as a wallet and a mobile phone, the bag also contained an old-fashioned Walkman and matching headphones. The Walkman's interlayer contained some tapes and corresponding index stickers. The headphones had a corner folded, looking like they had been bent.
Conan was observing Hashimoto Maya closely. Halfway through, he suddenly noticed that Jiang Xia was waving at him quietly.
Conan was startled and walked over: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia said sneakily: "There is a little missing evidence."
"How could you not find the evidence?" Conan said, and suddenly understood something, and couldn't help showing his dead eyes, "Where is what you are looking for?"
Jiang Xia pointed to the seats where the suspects were sitting.
Conan followed his gaze and glanced at the messy relics on the ground, and immediately understood.
"Wait." Conan finally found the irreplaceable feeling he had at the crime scene after a long time. Although it was a little different from the heroic crime-solving scene he had imagined, it was not a big problem. It was all contributing to solving the case.
As he thought about it, his mood improved. He stretched his shoulders and said, "My Lord is such a loser. You still have to rely on me at the critical moment."
Jiang Xia struggled to press down the hand that was about to hit his head: "..."
