Chapter 2585-2597 [The organization's method of silencing]
Mao Lilan smiled happily: "Mahjong is so fun, let's play another game!"
"Hey." One of the poker players interrupted quickly, "Fuyuki is so slow - I'll give him a call to hurry him up."
Under the mysterious smile of Kogoro Mori, he picked up the phone in embarrassment and called for help.
However, this time, when I called, no one answered the phone.
"Strange, the light is clearly on in his office." The poker player looked out the window in confusion, "He used to answer the phone very quickly, what happened today?"
Another poker player muttered, "Could something have happened? Come to think of it, when I called him just now, he sounded a little panicked..." As he spoke, his face changed slightly, "Could it be that he encountered a burglar who broke into his house and robbed it?"
Jiang Xia thought about it and said what Conan was about to say: "Financial companies are indeed easy to attract thieves. To be on the safe side, let's go and take a look."
…
A few people left the mahjong hall, entered the detached house opposite, and went all the way up to the second floor.
The poker player went to knock on the sturdy door, "Fuyuki? Are you in there?"
After knocking for a while, no one opened the door, but someone came up from downstairs.
The man was wearing a suit, a typical office worker outfit. Seeing so many people gathered at the door, he asked in confusion, "What are you doing here?"
The mahjong players looked in the direction of the voice and said, "Oh, I remember you. You are an employee here, right? We are short of one person for our mahjong game, except for your president. But we couldn't find him no matter how hard we waited. We called him but he didn't answer. So we had no choice but to come over to see what's going on."
Nan Ze Shang Shan was a little surprised. He took out the company key and opened the door: "It's already this late, and the president hasn't left work yet?"
Maori Kogoro glanced at him and said, "You haven't gotten off work yet, have you?"
Nan Ze Shang Shan laughed: "I got off work a long time ago. I accidentally forgot to take my phone, so I had to come back to get it."
As he spoke, he pushed the door open and quickly found his cell phone on the desk.
Maori Kogoro looked around but couldn't find anyone, so he turned around and asked Nanzawa Naozen: "Where is your president?"
"Over here." Nan Ze Shang Shan pointed to a door next to him, "This is the president's office."
Jiang Xia walked over and knocked twice. Seeing no one answered, he turned the doorknob again.
Then he sighed, "It's locked. Do you have a spare key?"
Nan Ze Shang Shan shook his head: "Our vault is in the president's office, so the president didn't make a spare key. Only he can enter this room."
Mao Lilan suggested quietly: "How about we break down the door and go in?"
Maori Kogoro said solemnly: "This is the only way for now."
Nan Ze Shangshan listened to this conversation and felt something was wrong: "Wait, just because the president didn't answer the phone, you want to break down the door of the vault? Isn't this too arbitrary? And this door is specially made and very sturdy, you..."
Bang——!
With a loud bang, the specially made sturdy door didn't last even a second in front of the extremely agile Maori father and daughter.
"..." The door was wide open. Nan Ze Shangshan looked at the crumbling door frame, froze for a moment, and then closed his mouth as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded in front of her - Mao Lilan, who had just been bravely knocking on the door, saw something and screamed "Ah!" and hid behind in fear.
Jiang Xia walked past her to the door, looked into the office, and saw a dead body lying on the ground with its eyes open.
——Ryuzaburo Fuyuki, who was full of vigor and vitality not long ago, was now lying motionless on the ground, with piles of banknotes scattered on his body, and he seemed to be no longer breathing.
To be on the safe side, the high school detective walked closer to investigate.
He quickly stood up and shook his head regretfully: the person was gone.
When Mao Lilan saw her classmate's familiar action, she took out her cell phone tremblingly and pressed the alarm button tacitly.
In the chaos, Conan looked over everyone's legs and stared at the corpse in the house with an ugly expression.
——Just when he was about to use Fuyuki Ryuzaburo as a breakthrough in investigating Vodka, Fuyuki suddenly died, right under his nose.
Is this a coincidence, or... a deliberate attempt to silence someone?
…
Half an hour later.
"The deceased is Fuyuki Ryuzaburo, the president of this financial company." Inspector Megure summarized the situation at the scene and couldn't help but yawning tiredly. "After preliminary judgment, the cause of death was suffocation caused by cyanide poisoning. The time of death was between 7 and 7:30 tonight..."
As he was talking, he couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "I thought this guy escaped, but I didn't expect him to be killed. Could it be that we have all overlooked that in addition to Amoto and Amoto No. 2, there is a real Avenger hidden in secret, Amoto No. 3?"
Jiang Xia shook his head: "The manner of death is different. The first three cases were all stabbed to death, but Mr. Fuyuki died of poisoning. Rather than someone taking over the revenge, I think it's more like he offended someone somewhere else and attracted another wave of enemies."
Inspector Megure quickly agreed with this statement: "This guy really deserves a beating."
"Jiang Xia, Inspector." Officer Gao Mu came running over with an evidence bag in his hand and reported, "After comparison, the key on the table is indeed the key to the president's office door."
“In addition, the windows were all locked from the inside, with no signs of prying or other oddities.”
When Inspector Megure heard these two clues, his head immediately became bigger: "In other words, this is a murder in a closed room?"
When Kogoro Mouri heard about the "locked room murder case", he suddenly became as troubled as Inspector Megure.
However, as a man who occasionally gets smart, he quickly had an idea and found an easy way out for himself: "The window is indeed locked, but who can guarantee that there is only one key to the front door? - If someone secretly made another key, he could enter through the front door in a swagger, lock the door after killing someone, and leave smoothly."
As he spoke, his eyes sharpened and he looked at Nan Ze Shang Shan next to him: "As far as I know, many murderers will return to the crime scene after committing the crime. Some even make themselves the first person to discover the crime so that they can monitor the police's progress in solving the case in real time."
"???" Nan Ze Shang Shan heard the hidden meaning in his words and shouted, "Who are you hinting at? I didn't kill the president. I just left work at 7 o'clock. If you don't believe me, check the surveillance. There is a surveillance camera installed at the entrance of our company!"
"Surveillance?" Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori were both stunned. In the case of a locked room murder, this word was a little unfamiliar.
However, neither of them was the type to make things more difficult for themselves, so they decided to check the surveillance footage. Inspector Megure immediately waved his hand and said, "Quick, check out the surveillance footage!"
…
As soon as the surveillance camera arrived, Conan immediately found a good position and stared at the scene on the screen with a little excitement.
——If someone from that organization really came to silence us, they would most likely expose themselves because they were unaware of the surveillance cameras.
This is a very rare opportunity and must be seized!
