Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 282 Death is like the wind, always with me

"Hello, who are you?" Professor Hirota's wife, Hirota Toshiko, came to the door of Hirota's house and looked at Hanomiya Akira and others in confusion.

"Excuse me, ma'am. This is Akira Yumiya who called the professor before. I made an appointment with the professor to visit him at three o'clock. I wonder if he is at home now?" Akira Yumiya asked.

"So you are Mr. Hanomiya. My husband has told me before, please come in." Hirota Toshiko suddenly understood, and then invited Hanomiya Akira and others to enter Hirota's house.

"My husband should be in the study now, but he drank some wine at noon today. Please don't mind me then." As Hirota Toshiko said, he had already led Hanomiya Akira and others to the door of the study.

"Masaki, the Mr. Hanomiya you told me about before has arrived!" Hirota Toshiko shouted inside.

For a long time, there was no response from inside.

"Eh? That's weird. Did he fall asleep in there?" Hirota Toshiko tried to twist the study door, but it was locked.

"Masagi, Masagi! Open the door!" Hirota Toshiko called her husband's name into the study again and knocked hard on the door.

However, there was still no response inside.

Yu Gongming frowned, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

He raised his head and glanced at the window above. With a little strength on his feet, he jumped up and climbed straight to the window edge to look inside.

The scene in the study made his pupils shrink instantly!

He first tried to open the window.

However the windows were also locked.

So, Yu Gongming fell back to the ground again, and said to several people with a solemn expression: "Something happened to Professor Hirota. Madam, please open the door to the study immediately!"

"Ah? But...but I don't have a backup key. The only key is in the hands of my husband." Hirota Toshiko said with a panicked expression when she heard that something happened to her husband.

"Then we have no choice but to violently break down the door. Everyone, please give way." Yu Gongming turned to the others and said.

The others probably knew what he was going to do, and they all made space.

Seeing this, Yu Gongming took two steps back.

He took a deep breath and sank slightly.

The next moment, his right foot kicked out towards the door in front of him!

boom!

After a dull bang, the study door opened.

"ah!!"

This is the scream of Toshiko Hirota.

I saw that the study room was in a mess, the bookshelf fell to the ground, and books and other debris were scattered everywhere.

The most eye-catching thing was Professor Hirota who was pressed under the bookshelf with his eyes wide open and the back of his head covered in blood!

"Death is really like the wind, always accompanying me..." Yu Gongming sighed helplessly in his heart.

…………

"Hello, Mrs. Hirota, I am Henggou from the Shizuoka Police Department. Where is the scene?" Officer Henggou from the Shizuoka Prefecture Police showed his ID and went straight to the door.

"My husband's body is in the study now." Hirota Toshiko said softly with a sad face.

"Sorry, please take us to the study first." Officer Henggou said in a gentler tone.

"OK."

When Officer Henggou arrived at the study, he saw many people standing outside the study door.

"Who are you?" Officer Henggou asked doubtfully.

"Oh? It turns out to be Police Officer Henggou." Yu Gongming turned around and looked over.

"Detective Yu... Detective Yu Gong, and classmate Meng Yu? Why are you here?" Officer Henggou asked in surprise.

"We had something to visit Professor Hirota, but when we got here, we found that Professor Hirota had passed away." Akira Hanomiya explained.

"In other words, are you the first to discover the body?" Officer Henggou asked.

"That's right. Except for me who went in to confirm that Professor Hirota was dead, no one else entered the scene." Akira Hanamiya added.

"It's really troublesome for Detective Hanomiya to help protect the scene." Officer Henggou said with a smile.

"It should be done, then the next thing will be left to the police officer." Hanemiya Ming said.

…………

"Report, the scene has been secured, police officer, you can go in." The forensic officer reported.

Officer Henggou nodded slightly and entered the study.

Yu Gongming, Meng Yu and Xiao Ai naturally followed in.

As for the doctor, he wisely stayed outside. After all, he couldn't help much if he went in.

Police Officer Henggou glanced at Ha Gongming and others and had no objection to their entry into the scene.

"Then, the investigators, please report the situation." Officer Henggou said.

"Yes, the deceased was hit on the back of the head with a blunt instrument, causing cerebral hemorrhage, difficulty breathing, and eventually suffocation."

"We have extracted some blood stains on this ornament, and we preliminarily conclude that this should be the murder weapon that caused Professor Hirota's death." The forensic officer showed a yellow square ornament in his hand, with black blood stains still remaining on it.

"In addition, we found the key to the study under a blue notebook," the forensic officer continued.

"Oh? Then it's probably an accident?" Officer Henggou thought:

"After all, the key to the study was found under a notebook. According to Mrs. Hirota, this is the only key to the study. When Detective Hanomiya came here, the doors and windows of the study were locked, which ruled out It prevents others from entering."

"Combined with the fallen bookshelf, I think Professor Hirota wanted to get to something on the bookshelf, so he stepped on the bookshelf."

"But the bookshelf could not bear the weight of Professor Hirota and fell down in the process. Professor Hirota also lost his balance and fell backward. Finally, he was hit on the back of the head by a falling decoration and died."

Officer Henggou said, turning to look at Hanomiya Akira: "Detective Hanomiya, what do you think?"

In the last case at the Kuhara Hotel, Officer Henggou had already seen Akira Hanamiya's reasoning ability, and at this time he unconsciously sought the opinion of Akira Hanamiya, a famous detective.

"This does seem more like an accident, but there is one thing that cannot be explained." Yu Gongming said calmly.

"Oh? What is it?" Officer Henggou's eyes lit up and he looked at Yu Gongming expectantly.

"It's the phone covered by a book." Yu Gongming took a handkerchief from Meng Yu's hand, picked up a book on the ground, and revealed the answering machine underneath.

"You see, the answering machine is located next to the bookshelf, and it is also covered by books. In other words, the phone fell along with the bookshelf."

"But you see, the receiver of this phone is placed on the phone properly. You think it is affected by the bookshelf, or simply the phone on the bookshelf. If it falls from the top, the receiver can still be placed on the phone like this. On board?"

"This is indeed a bit strange..." Officer Henggou nodded, and then his expression changed!

"Wait a minute, if someone deliberately made the room like this and Professor Hirota was killed, then..."

Officer Henggou looked up at the study, his expression becoming quite solemn:

"This study will become an absolute secret room!"
