Conan: Another Famous Detective

The next day, Yu Gongming and his party arrived at the building where the incident occurred.

"Lawyer Fei, you are here!" Building administrator Akiyama Takuya walked out of the management room and greeted several people.

Fei Yingli smiled and nodded: "Excuse me, Mr. Qiu Shan."

Akiyama waved his hand: "You're welcome, please come with me."

Then, he led everyone towards the office area of ​​Dajin Company.

On the way, Fei Yingli asked: "I heard that you were the first to discover the body of President Otsu, right?"

Akiyama nodded: "Yes."

"Can you describe the situation at that time?" Fei Yingli asked.

"Of course." Qiu Shan nodded and began to narrate:

"I think it was about nine o'clock that night, right? I was watching a baseball game, and then someone knocked on the window of the management room. When I looked, it turned out to be Mr. Arima."

"Mr. Arima told me that he had something to talk to the president about, but when he went to the office, the door was locked, so he wanted me to help open the door."

"How can he be sure that the president is in the office?" Conan asked.

"He is such a little brother. Mr. Arima said that the president had eaten in his restaurant before and once told him to go back to the office. Mr. Arima also went to find the president because he left his reading glasses in the restaurant. ." Qiu Shan replied.

"So that's it, what happens next?" Fei Yingli asked.

Akiyama continued: "Then we came to the door of this office."

Several people had walked to the office area of ​​Dajin Company unknowingly.

Akiyama took out a bunch of keys, selected one, and said, "I used this spare key to open the door."

He opened the door, and everyone saw the office area inside. There was also a room in the office area with a sign saying "President's Office" on the door.

"We walked to the door of the president's office, and Mr. Arima started knocking on the door and calling for the president." Akiyama continued:

"But after shouting for a while, no one answered. Then Mr. Ryoma looked in through the peephole on the door, and then he suddenly shouted, saying that there was a figure inside beating someone."

"I was shocked when I heard it, and I quickly took a look. It was exactly what Mr. Arima said! Then we heard the sound of the president falling."

"Because only the president had the key to this office, Mr. Arima just opened the door, and then we found the president lying on the ground."

"Mr. Arima rushed in immediately, hugged the president and tried to wake him up. At the same time, he asked me to call an ambulance. I think Lawyer Fei also knew what happened next."

After listening to Akiyama's narration, several people naturally had some ideas in their minds. Conan ran over and tried to open the door. However, the door was indeed locked.

"Eh? Who has the key now?" Conan asked doubtfully.

"It's right at Mr. Arima's place, oh! He's already here!" Akiyama turned his head and looked behind several people.

A man in his thirties wearing a green coat came to the crowd.

According to the police inquiry transcript, he is the deceased’s son-in-law, Arima Masahiko.

"Mr. Arima, this is the concubine lawyer I told you before." Akiyama quickly introduced.

"Hello Mr. Arima, we are the assistants of the concubine's lawyer." Akira Hanomiya also briefly introduced himself and others.

Arima Yahiko nodded ceremoniously to several people.

Feiyingli went straight to the point and said: "Mr. Arima, I'm sorry to disturb your work. I came here this time to enter the president's office and have a look."

"Of course it's no problem." Arima Masahiko said cheerfully.

"Excuse me, uncle, is there no one in the president's office now?" Conan asked.

"That's right!" Arima Masahiko replied as he took out the key and opened the door: "Although the police have issued a permission for use, my father-in-law died here after all, so I haven't figured out how to use this place yet. Please come in. .”

Arima Masahiko stepped aside and motioned for everyone to check at will.

After Fei Yingli thanked her, she and everyone entered the president's room.

Several people split up and began to search the president's office.

Akira Hanomiya first glanced at the layout of the president's room.

Directly opposite the door of the president's office is a table. Behind the table is an office chair. Behind the chair is a bookshelf. On the ground next to the bookshelf is a safe. In front of the safe, a screen is erected. Presumably it was used to cover the safe.

"Well, wait a minute, from this angle..." Akira Hanomiya frowned and turned to look at Masahiko Arima: "Mr. Arima, where did the president fall at that time?"

"Oh, it's right here in front of the safe." Arima Masahiko walked to the front of the safe and pointed to the general location.

"That's it..." Yu Gongming's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly looked at Mengyu and Xiaolan: "Mengyu, you come to the safe, use the president's position at that time as a reference, Xiaolan, find an angle, Pretending to attack Mengyu."

Xiaolan and Mengyu were stunned for a moment when they heard this, but they didn't ask any more questions and started to act according to what Yu Gongming said.

"Hmm... The president was probably going to open the safe at that time, right?" Meng Yu muttered, squatting in front of the safe.

Xiaolan took a look at Mengyu's current posture, tentatively found a position where it would be easier to hit someone, and raised her hand slightly, as if to hit.

"Okay! Keep this position and don't move!" Yu Gongming shouted.

They both froze at the same time.

Yu Gongming quickly came to the door of the office, closed the door, and observed the situation inside through the peephole from the outside.

A bright light flashed in his eyes, and his thoughts were true.

He reopened the door and walked back inside.

"A Ming, what did you find?" Fei Yingli asked.

"I took a look from outside, and I couldn't see Xiaolan and Mengyu from outside the door." Yu Gongming said calmly.

"What?" Fei Yingli's expression changed, and she also came to the door and closed it to check.

After a while, she walked in thoughtfully and said, "The screen completely blocked the place in front of the safe..."

He stood outside the screen and visually measured the distance to the safe: "If the murderer stood outside the screen and hit the deceased on the head with an ashtray, then this distance is not enough at all."

She turned to look at Akiyama: "Mr. Akiyama, how did you see someone beating someone at that time?"

Akiyama was stunned for a moment, and then replied with some hesitation: "Actually, I saw someone beating someone through the reflection of the figure on the wall."

"Oh? The figure on the wall?" Everyone looked at the wall pointed by Qiu Shan.

Akiyama nodded: "Yes, because there were no lights inside at the time, so I saw a figure beating the president through the neon lights outside the window."

"Are you sure that the one who was beaten was the president?" Fei Yingli asked.

Akiyama nodded: "Yeah! Although we didn't see the president, we soon heard the sound of the president falling to the ground. It's absolutely unmistakable!"

"That is to say, you didn't see who hit the president at that time, and you didn't see the president being beaten with your own eyes, right?" Fei Yingli finally confirmed.

"But Lawyer Fei, there shouldn't be any difference, right?" Arima Masahiko on the side retorted: "Didn't the prisoner also admit to beating him?"
