Conan: Another Famous Detective

"Detective Hanomiya, Detective Hattori, we are here...eh? Detective Mori is here too? And this gesture..."

Police personnel including Shinichi Shibata, Maya Ito, Daisuke Fukuda, hotel security guards, and Officer Yokomori gathered in the guard room.

Upon arriving at the guard room, Officer Yokomori discovered that not only Akira Hanomiya and Heiji Hattori were there, but even Kogoro Mouri seemed to have arrived here first.

At this time, Mouri Kogoro was sitting with his head lowered, his eyes closed, and his legs crossed on the chair in the guard room.

Officer Henggou is very familiar with this posture.

This is exactly the standard posture of Mouri Kogoro's reasoning!

"Three famous detectives called us here. Have they already deduced the truth of this case?" Officer Henggou asked excitedly.

"That's right. Next, the three of us will work together to tell you the whole story of this case, and tell you who... is the real murderer!" Yu Gongming said calmly.

"The real murderer? In other words, this Futian is not the murderer?" Officer Henggou asked.

"That's right, the murderer was not Mr. Fukuda, he was just framed." [Moori Kogoro] answered Officer Henggou's question.

Of course, the one who really spoke was Conan who was hiding behind Maori.

"And... I'm afraid it's not appropriate to say the real murderer. It should be the real [murderers]!" Hattori Heiji said.

"What? The murderers... Detective Hattori said there was more than one murderer who intentionally killed Miss Masako?" Officer Henggou said in shock.

"Yes, there are two murderers of Miss Masako." Hanemiya Ming said.

"And these two murderers...are none other than Mr. Shinichi Shibata and Miss Maya Ito who came to the hotel with Miss Masako!" Conan took over.

"Wha...what? How is this possible? Fortunately for Miss Maya, Mr. Shibata was with you, Mr. Mori, during the time of the crime!" Officer Henggou said in disbelief.

"Yes, Detective Mouri. I stayed with you until three o'clock after Masako left the card room! Masako had already been killed by that time!" Shinichi Shibata also had an angry look on his face, as if he was quite dissatisfied with Kogoro Mouri's accusation.

"Don't be impatient. Let's start from the beginning." Conan's tone was very calm and unhurried:

"This murder plan started three weeks ago or even earlier. About three weeks ago, a passenger came to the guard room and claimed that his belongings were missing and asked for hotel surveillance to search for it."

"And this guest is Mr. Shibata!"

"Looking for something is just a pretense. His real purpose is to secretly take away the key to the iron door of the safety staircase in the drawer while the guard is not paying attention!"

"Obviously, he finally succeeded in stealing the key, and quickly obtained an identical key within a day, and then threw the original key into a corner of the guard room with an excuse, creating the illusion that the key was accidentally dropped."

"Yes, there was indeed a customer who was looking for something and asked me to call the surveillance. However, after checking the surveillance, I did not find that the guest had lost anything."

"Then the next day, the guest came to the guard room again, claiming that his belongings had been found, and apologized for the trouble he had caused me." The hotel guard said.

"Oh? Do you still remember that person's appearance?" Officer Henggou asked.

"No, the man came wearing a hat and a mask both times. He said he had a cold in the past two days, so I didn't see his appearance clearly. I only knew that he was a male with a taller build, like this About the same as Mr. Shibata," the guard said. .

"After receiving the key to the iron gate, Mr. Shibata or Miss Ito began the follow-up preparations for the murder plan, and these preparations were all placed in the garbage bag." Hattori Heiji pointed to the garbage bag placed at the door of the monitoring room. garbage bags.

Hearing this, Officer Henggou came to the garbage bag, knelt down and opened it.

"This is……"

Officer Henggou's pupils shrank!

"That's right, the ether used to stun the victim and the two pairs of gloves prepared to avoid leaving fingerprints are all in here!" Hattori Heiji said with a smile.

"But... what is this wig used for?" Officer Henggou took out a black wig from the garbage bag, his face full of confusion.

"This wig is an important prop for the murderer to commit crimes!" Yu Gongming said with a smile:

"The time came yesterday. Miss Masako came to this hotel under the arrangement of the two murderers. In the afternoon, he met us. During dinner, she and Mr. Shibata chatted with us for a few words. At least at that time, Miss Masako is still alive."

"But after that, I estimate it was between half past nine and half past ten, Miss Masako was stunned by Mr. Shibata and the two men who had planned it. Then, the two cooperated and brought Miss Masako to the roof of the building. On the water tank.”

"Then, Miss Maya took off Miss Masako's clothes, put them on herself, put on a wig, and transformed into Miss Masako."

"What? Disguise?" Officer Henggou was shocked again.

"That's right, it's just cross-dressing. In other words, the Miss Masako I saw in the chess and card room was not Miss Masako herself, but Miss Maya pretending to be her!" said Kogoro Moori.

"Please wait a moment, why do you say Masako is pretending? What evidence is there?" Shinichi Shibata asked loudly.

"Dream language." Yu Gongming said calmly.

"clear!"

Mengyu, who was sitting in front of the monitoring desk, operated for a while, and the monitoring screen in front of him suddenly showed the scene of the lobby at 0:38 last night.

"Look here..." Mengyu freezes the picture.

In the picture, Yamazaki Masako is walking towards the elevator.

"Is there anything wrong here?" Officer Henggou took a look and seemed to find nothing unusual.

"Pay attention, Miss Masako is wearing a pair of jeans on the inside of the jeans she is wearing."

"Oh? Let me see..." Officer Henggou observed the picture again.

"Oh! I saw it, there is indeed a pair of jeans inside!"

"This is the first evidence that the murderer put Miss Masako's clothes on himself and pretended to be her." Hanemiya Ming said.

Mengyu cut the surveillance screen to the elevator room again, freezing the picture directly.

"In this picture, we can see that Miss Masako pressed the elevator floor with her right hand, while her watch was worn on her left hand." Meng Yu said.

"Indeed." Officer Henggou glanced at the screen and nodded.

Mengyu operated the monitor again, and the screen jumped again.

"This is the picture of Miss Masako and us entering the elevator at 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon..."

"This... Miss Masako pressed the elevator with her left hand and looked at the watch with her right hand?" Officer Henggou asked in surprise.

"Yes, and yesterday afternoon, Mr. Fukuda harassed Miss Masako. At that time, Miss Masako's hand to drive Mr. Fukuda away was also left-handed. It can be seen that Miss Masako is actually left-handed." Hanemiya Mingdao.

"Detective Hanomiya, you misunderstood. Although Masako prefers to use her left hand, she does not object to using her right hand. Just because she presses the elevator with her right hand, it is too far-fetched to say that she is not Masako!" Shinichi Shibata retorted.

"Since we have made such an inference, there is naturally other evidence." Conan said calmly.
