Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 1242: Impossible to be the discoverer of the murderer?

Get out of the house.

"That blood stain was left by the first discoverer of the body?" Yu Gongming frowned.

"Yes, the discoverer is named Senba Kazoku, and he is the owner of a traditional grocery store nearby. Because President Hiyama and his son and daughter-in-law have negotiated the land sale, he came to complain this morning."

"So, is that person the murderer?" Dr. Ali asked.

"No, it's not." Officer Takagi shook his head and explained: "That person can't be the murderer."

Officer Takagi led several people to the side of the house and introduced: "As you can see, all the windows of this house are equipped with iron bars, and the door is the only entrance and exit of this house."

"There are several bodyguards guarding the door. Everyone entering and exiting the house needs to undergo strict body searches. If you carry blunt objects, you will be discovered immediately. They even use metal detectors."

"So, is it possible that the murderer used things in the house as murder weapons?" Subaru Okiya put forward a new guess.

Officer Takagi replied: "In fact, I heard that President Hiyama is a very bad land developer. In order to prevent the people who were invited from attacking, there was nothing in the house that could be used as a murder weapon except the mop. Something. Of course, there was no trace of President Tongshan’s blood on the mop.”

"Then, when Mr. Senba entered the house, was President Hiyama already dead?" Akira Hanomiya asked.

Officer Takagi said: "Yes, after Mr. Xianba entered the house through a body search, he said hello several times, but received no response."

"Then I saw the bathroom door open, and when I looked inside, I saw President Tongshan lying on the ground with a broken head and blood. It is said that when he rushed over, he stepped on the glass shards, and then returned At the door, tell the bodyguard on duty what happened."

"Where is Mr. Xianbo now?" Conan asked.

"Oh! He is over there in the main house now, and the policewoman is bandaging him." Officer Takagi said.

"Sorry, may I ask?" Subaru Okiya pushed up his glasses: "Is the faucet in the locker room always on?"

Officer Takagi was stunned and recalled: "That seems to be true."

Several people's expressions moved when they heard this.

After looking at each other, Akira Hanomiya looked at Officer Takagi: "Can you take us to see the Senba Kazoku? We have some things we want to confirm with him."

"When the time comes to ask questions, just say that I am assisting the police in their investigation. Is that okay?"

"Um... about this... I have to ask Officer Megure." Officer Takagi scratched his head.

"Yeah! That's understandable." Yu Gongming nodded.

"Wait a moment!" Officer Takagi said, running towards the scene of leaving the house.

After a while, he returned with Officer Megure.

"Brother Hanomiya, are you suspicious of Mr. Senba?" Officer Megure said straight to the point.

"I have some doubts." Yu Gongming nodded: "After all, he is the only person who left traces at the scene. Some things must be asked clearly."

Officer Megure pondered for a while and said, "Okay, you can ask Mr. Xianbo some questions later."

"Thank you very much, police officer." Yu Gongming smiled.

As soon as he finished speaking, a shout came from the direction of the main room: "Hey! I think I can go back after everything has been bandaged, right?"

Everyone turned around and saw a tall man with a square face, about fifty years old, glaring impatiently at the Chiba police officer who stopped him.

Seeing this, Officer Takagi quickly ran over and explained: "Well... we still have some things to ask you."

Hanemiya Akira and others also came over and said with a smile: "Mr. Senba, I am the person the police officer arranged to question you. Did you step on the glass with your right foot? I see that you have been limping with your right foot when walking."

"Uh, no, it was my left foot that stepped on the glass! But I had a car accident last month and fractured my right foot, so it's a little inconvenient to move my right foot."

Yu Gongming nodded: "That's right. Can you please reconstruct the entire process from when you entered the house to when you found the body? There are some things we need to confirm."

"Is this necessary? Do you doubt me?" Xianbo Hede's expression changed!

Yu Gongming's expression remained unchanged: "After all, you have been to the scene. If you are really innocent, then as long as you restore the whole process, you can clear the suspicion. In other words, is there any inconvenience for you?"

Xianbo and De's eyebrows jumped, then nodded: "Okay..."

After a while, everyone came back to the house.

"First, I passed the body search by the bodyguards, and then entered the house..."

Xianbo and De opened the sliding door and walked into the hungry entrance.

"I kept waiting for no one to come out, so I went in and shouted a few times, but still no one responded. Then I noticed that the door of the bathroom dressing room was open, and I walked in and took a look..."

Xianbo and De walked into the dressing room, pointed at the scene and said: "This is what I saw."

"Then, you rushed over to check on Mr. Hiyama's condition?" Akira Hanomiya asked.

"Yes." Xianbohe De nodded.

"Didn't you see such obvious glass fragments?" Mengyu asked, pointing to the glass on the ground.

"Because the door to the locker room was only open a crack at that time, I didn't see the glass..."

"That's strange." Conan's childlike voice sounded faintly: "If the door was only opened a crack, wouldn't the glass shards be swept aside by the door when you opened the door?"

"Moreover, if the murderer had closed the door, the glass fragments would have been closer to the door." Conan pointed to the glass fragments on the ground. Although the fragments were not far from the door, they were still two steps away.

"Uh! I made a mistake!" Xianba Wade hurriedly explained: "The door was wide open at the time. I was distracted by the corpse, so I stepped on the glass."

"Since it was due to carelessness, why did you say it was because of the door problem just now?" Akira Yumiya stared at Senbo Kazutoku: "Such a thing happened not long ago, so the impression should be very deep, right?"

"I...I..." Xianbo Hede hesitated for a while, and then shouted loudly: "I was frightened by seeing the corpse, so I remembered it wrong for a moment? Do you suspect that I am the murderer?"

He took off his coat with an indignant look, pointed at the lining and said, "Look! If you beat someone like that, there would be blood stains on them, right? Do you see where there are blood stains on my body?"

"Eh? Uncle, you seem to have buttoned your shirt wrong!" Conan pointed to a button on the hem of Xianbo's shirt.

"Uh... this..." Xianbo and De's expression froze.

"Also, the hem at the back is not tucked into the pants." Meng Yu said lightly.

"The tie is tied to the floor, which is quite different from the sloppy shirt." Okiya Subaru also said.

Xianbo's expression changed continuously, and his tone became even more panicked: "That...that was just a coincidence, I just didn't clean it up today..."

"Oh? Why do you feel more and more guilty?" Yu Gongming said with a half-smile.

Xianbo and De's face looked a little ugly, and he shouted: "Asshole! Don't talk nonsense! I can't be the murderer at all, because there is no blunt weapon on me that can be used as a murder weapon!"

"Okay! This matter has nothing to do with me, I'm leaving!" Xianbo said, and left quickly angrily.

Seeing this, Officer Takagi quickly chased after him. Just now everyone could tell that there was something wrong with Senbo, and Officer Takagi couldn't just let him leave.
