Conan’s Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia, Yuan Shan and Ye hit it off and entered the murder scene one after another.

"I originally wanted to identify the murderer through the source of the murder weapon, but I just asked and found out that this knife is the real knife used by the referee when demonstrating how to draw a knife at the conference." Otaki Police Department said, sighing, "In this case, we can only draw a rough range - the murderer should have some understanding of the process of the game and know the location of the referee's lounge."

When Jiang Xia heard this, he looked around, but he couldn't find Conan.

He had no choice but to respond by himself: "For example, the deceased's teammates from the kendo club?"

Several people from the Kendo Club are also here at this time.

Hearing Jiang Xia's words, they frowned and looked over, and the murderous aura in some people suddenly increased.

The Otaki Police Department obviously had the same idea as Jiang Xia. He looked at those people: "According to several people, the original scene of the crime was the sports warehouse of the annex. Then someone took advantage of you to leave and moved the body to the swimming pool. In the locker room - who was the last to leave the sports warehouse at that time?"

The three witnesses looked at each other for a moment, and then hesitantly began to sort out: "Otegawa was the first to go, then me, and finally Tsuguchi."

Chunkou is the fat man with a gentle temper who looks a bit cowardly.

Otaki Police Department heard this and looked at him suspiciously: "So you are the last person left?"

He was stunned for a moment, then realized something belatedly, and waved his hands hastily: "But I went to the venue to find the captain right away, and I didn't waste even a second!"

The captain nodded: "Yes, we are neighbors. Since he was a child, he would come and tell me whenever something happened. He doesn't have the guts to kill anyone."

Jiang Xia thought for a while and suddenly said to the Otaki Police Department: "They were preparing for the game at the time, and they probably didn't have mobile phones with them, so it was difficult to know the exact time when looking for someone. Without time comparison, all three people were actually suspected.

"——But, speaking of this. A teammate with a bad personality suddenly disappears. Most people will think that he has gone somewhere to have fun, or simply abandoned the game and left. But why would you think of looking for him in a sealed warehouse? It's not like that there. It’s a place where the living will stay.”

The three members of the Kendo Club who were responsible for finding people were stunned for a moment.

After a moment, Xu Guizhi raised his chubby hand, scratched the back of his head, and recalled: "I remember when I was passing by the warehouse, someone asked, 'Have you ever looked for the warehouse?' Although I thought this location was a bit strange, the door of the warehouse anyway It was at hand, so I opened the door and looked, and then I saw Tsumi’s body.”

Next to him, his grumpy teammate nodded: "I'm about the same."

After saying that, the two looked at each other for a moment, understood something slowly, and turned to look at Jun Kotekawa.

…

As their eyes fell over, everyone else also looked over there.

Jun Otekawa suddenly became the center of all attention.

Yuan Shan and Ye looked suddenly enlightened: "So you are the murderer? Jiang Xia solved the case really quickly..." She took out her mobile phone and muttered while typing on it.

Kotekawa was instantly pricked by the gazes from all directions.

His heart was beating loudly and he glared at Jiang Xia: "I just happened to pass by the warehouse, so I wanted to look for it! What's the problem?! - That guy has a weird personality. Maybe he just likes to go into dark corners like warehouses. hide."

After a moment, he suddenly showed a sneer: "Speaking of which, transporting the body from the sports warehouse to the swimming pool without being seen by everyone is not an easy task. I don't have that time. After making the emergency call, I I immediately went to the police station to help explain, and Mian Gu can also help me testify on this point."

Mentani Mineo nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no one wants to have a murderous teammate: "That's right! Otegawa did arrive at the police station not long ago. I was so confused at the time that I couldn't explain the situation, so I relied on Otegawa to explain it clearly - —Hey, that high school student, you need evidence to solve a case, don’t just frame it up randomly!”

Jiang Xia glanced at him: "I just asked a question, why are you so excited?"

"..." Miangu Fengnan was stunned. Thinking about what Jiang Xia just said, it seemed that it was really just a simple question, "...Oh, that's right."

Yuan Shan and Ye paused while typing, feeling a little at a loss. It seemed that she had misunderstood Jiang Xia's meaning just now and was the first to say "Otegawa is the murderer."

"It's okay." Jiang Xia whispered to her in a low voice, "He should be the murderer."

"Haha, I think so too!" Yuan Shan and Ye became happy again and continued to type in the names they had just deleted.

When Kotekawa heard this, his eyes twitched, and he turned his head to look over, filled with murderous intent.

Jiang Xia turned his head and looked at him. He assessed the murderous aura Otegawa was feeling and compared it with the murderous aura emitted by the murderer when Conan was on fire.

Then I regretfully discovered that maybe he was standing here as an adult, and he didn't look as easy to kill as the elementary school boy Conan. The murderer was more perfunctory, apparently because he thought it was a bit difficult to kill him, so he was not decisive enough in executing it.

Jiang Xia: "..." Speaking of which, why hasn't Conan shown up yet? Isn't he nearby?

...But it makes sense to think about it, this is Osaka, and some police officers don't know Conan, so they might have been stopped outside.

…

Just as he was thinking about it, there was suddenly a loud noise in the corridor.

A group of people stopped talking and turned to look over.

I saw a young police officer walking in with a few people who looked like high school students.

"We found a few witnesses." The young police officer motioned to them and introduced, "Before and after the incident, these students happened to be eating lunch near the gate of the annex."

When those high school students saw the college students in the kendo club, they blurted out: "Ah, yes, it's these people! Just now they asked us to borrow mobile phones, and the next time they were running around with the police in a panic."

These things sound very suspicious at first, but considering the situation at the time, there are no clues.

The Otaki Police Department asked without giving up: "Have you seen any other suspicious people?"

"Yes." The high school students gestured, "After they ran back and forth a few times, a very dark man rushed in with them!"

Otaki Police Department: "...Huh?" Very dark?

In his mind, the son of Hattori Headquarters instinctively appeared.

Apparently, he wasn't the only one who thought so.

Jiang Xia pointed to the hanging cloths on several members of the kendo club and asked the witnesses: "Does the person you are talking about have 'Hattori' written on his clothes?"

The two high school students nodded repeatedly: "That's right."

Toyama Kazuye, who was listening carefully with his ears pricked up and wanted to write down key evidence: "..."
