Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 965 An unexpected suspect

"It's just a guess."

Akira Hanomiya said calmly: "When I came here, I noticed that two of the three elevators in the hotel were under maintenance, and only one elevator was still running."

"It was the peak meal period, and every elevator would be full of people. The murderer would shoot and kill people, leaving the smell of gunpowder on his body. He would never take a crowded elevator."

"And unfortunately, until now, there seems to be someone working on the safety stairs on the 30th to 31st floors, and there is a notice posted on the door of the safety stairs on the first floor,"

"Once the murderer goes downstairs from the safety stairs, let alone whether he can pass through the construction area, even if he can pass, he will probably be remembered by the construction workers."

"Therefore, after the murderer finished killing people, he might first hide somewhere, wait until the peak meal period is over, or after the construction of the safety stairs is completed, and then sneak away while no one is around."

"In order not to attract attention, the murderer would either hide in a relatively private place such as a toilet, or go to a place with a dense flow of people to confuse the public."

"In addition to the foreign artist you mentioned, Officer Takagi, who wants to meet the president, we have narrowed the scope to the 31st floor to the top floor of the restaurant. Combined with the clues I just mentioned, it should not be difficult to find such a person, right?"

The more Officer Takagi listened, the brighter his eyes became, and finally he clapped his hands hard: "Okay! This way the workload will be much lighter! I will immediately arrange for someone to search according to what Detective Hanomiya said!"

After Officer Takagi finished speaking, he excitedly came to several police officers and started arranging work.

As Officer Megure's deputy, he still has some authority.

After seeing Officer Takagi start working, Akira Hanomiya returned to Officer Megure.

At this moment, Officer Megure seemed to have finished surveying the scene and was questioning a woman.

This woman has brown hair and looks quite Western. She should be a foreigner.

Officer Megure noticed the arrival of Akira Hanomiya and greeted: "Brother Hanomiya, this is the secretary who discovered the body."

Yu Gongming nodded slightly: "Did the secretary provide any clues?"

"I was about to start asking!" Officer Megure looked at the secretary: "When you got here, was there anyone else in the office besides President Sunai?"

"No." The secretary shook his head.

Officer Megure: "About five minutes before the incident, what on earth did the president ask you to do in the warehouse downstairs?"

Secretary: "At that time, the president asked me to back up the information of artists hired ten years ago. After I found the information, I wanted to call the president and ask if he wanted to send the information to him. As a result, no one answered the phone. Later, The phone message was transferred."

Officer Megure: "As for the reserve artist who made an appointment with the president, haven't you seen it?"

Secretary: "Yes, because before President Sunai officially admits him, the president will not let the artist meet anyone. I was the same way back then."

Officer Megure (surprised): "Are you an artist too?"

Secretary (nods): "Yes, but because I am not good at writing Japanese, the president asked me to work hard as a secretary first, but Chinese characters are really difficult. Even now, the president's emails to me are still in English. written."

Officer Memu stopped asking and frowned slightly: "In that case, I don't even know his name and appearance now, so it might be difficult to find him!"

"That's not necessarily the case." Yu Gongming suddenly said.

"Oh? Brother Hanomiya, what did you discover?" Officer Memu's eyes lit up.

"As for the suspect, I have asked Officer Takagi to search for him. We should be able to find something later." Akira Hanomiya repeated the reasoning he had told Officer Takagi.

Officer Megure gradually showed a look of surprise: "So that's it, you are indeed Brother Hanomiya! This way, the range is indeed much smaller."

"So what about this side of the scene? What did Officer Megure find?" Akira Hanomiya asked.

"There were no obvious signs of disturbance at the scene, and there were no signs of financial losses. In addition, the president was shot dead on the chair like this. It should be a vendetta."

"If the murder weapon has not been found yet, it may have been taken away by the murderer."

"That's it..." Akira Yunomiya nodded slightly: "It seems that we have to wait until Officer Takagi comes to find the suspect."

"Well, maybe the murderer has a murder weapon on his body." Officer Megure also nodded.

Afterwards, Akira Hanomiya observed the situation at the scene while waiting for Officer Takagi to arrive.

"Officer!" The voice came, and Officer Takagi ran into the office and shouted:

"We found two foreigners who were acting suspiciously and speaking fluent Mandarin in the restaurant and toilet on the top floor!"

"I also found something here!" Officer Sato's head also popped out of the office door: "I found a foreign man covered in sweat on the safety stairs."

"Hey! Don't pull me, I'm not a murderer!" A man's voice sounded.

Conan was slightly startled when he heard this voice. Why is this voice so familiar?

"Stop talking nonsense! Come in!" Officer Sato forcefully pulled a man closer to the office.

"Eh?" Conan's eyes widened instantly.

Agent Kamel?

The third suspect discovered by Officer Sato was none other than FBI agent Andre Kamel!

Kamel also noticed Conan, his expression also changed, and he quickly made a silence gesture to Conan. His FBI identity could not be disclosed to the police easily.

Conan's mouth twitched, he never expected to meet him in such a place.

When Yu Gongming saw it was Kamel, he was also stunned for a moment. What a coincidence...

But in this way, one suspect was eliminated directly.

His face remained calm as he turned to look at Officer Megure.

Officer Megure nodded slightly, and then began to question several suspects.

…………

Officer Takagi cleared his throat and finally concluded: "There are currently three suspects, one of whom is Mr. Toby Keynes who is sneaking around in the top-floor restaurant."

Keynes is a man with dark brown wavy hair. He is tall and has beautiful features. From a Western aesthetic point of view, he is handsome.

"The second one is Mr. Hal Buckner in the toilet on the side of that floor." Officer Takagi looked at the second suspect.

He was a man with a short stature, a round face, and Hattori-like skin.

As for the last one, it is naturally Kamel.

"Hey! Isn't it too much to say that I'm a ghost?" Keynes said with some dissatisfaction: "I'm just evaluating the restaurants there to see where it's better to eat."

Officer Memu's expression changed slightly: "Oh? You speak Mandarin very fluently!"

Keynes smiled proudly: "Yes, my father is American and my mother is Japanese. Thanks to them, I became a model because I was born with a face with outstanding features."

"Oh, by the way, have you ever heard of a fashion magazine called Ann No? I am occasionally featured on the cover."

Upon hearing this, Officer Megure looked at Officer Takagi and whispered: "Confirm later."

"Yes." Officer Takagi nodded.

Officer Megure looked at Hal Buckner.
