"Mr. Hirasawa, you rented this red sheep doll costume from the Rice Flower Doll Rental Company three weeks ago. Is that correct?"

As Mouri Kogoro spoke, he motioned to Shinichi Takada to take out the borrowed dolls and place them on the table, then continued:"The store also clearly keeps your rental records.

Hearing this, Kijiro Hirasawa immediately retorted:" I...I did borrow it, but that doesn't prove that I killed Wakabayashi."

Mouri Kogoro immediately asked:"Then please explain, why do you want to rent this doll costume?"

Hirasawa Motojiro hesitated for a moment, but immediately said:"This year is the fifth anniversary of the opening of our restaurant, so the store is going to hold a celebration event, and I thought of using red sheep to promote it."

"But this is a doll costume that was used at a temple fair ten years ago. Why would you use it for activities?"Mao Lilan was very puzzled after hearing this.

Hirasawa Kijiro knew that everyone was confused, so he explained:"Because this doll costume was actually designed by me."

"Why?"

This surprised everyone.

Mu Mu Shisan even asked:"Isn't your job a space designer?"

"At that time, I worked any job, and I also wore doll clothes in order to make money, so it was out of nostalgia and not to forget the hard work I had done. However, when I proposed to Wakabayashi that I wanted to use this suit at events. When I was wearing the doll costume, I encountered strong opposition from him, saying that the red sheep doll costume did not fit the style of our restaurant. In desperation, I had to give up the idea."

Hirasawa Motojiro explained in detail.

Mouri Kogoro immediately said:"So you hate Mr. Wakabayashi and give him to...."

"How can this be!"

Hirasawa Motojiro immediately shook his head:"Wakabayashi is not only my partner, but also my most important partner. How could I kill him just because he rejected my proposal?"

There is a possibility of killing someone because of a quarrel, but it is relatively unlikely.

Conan suddenly said:"Since he is your most important partner, you should know Chef Wakabayashi very well, right?"

"Why do you ask this?"

Moori Kogoro glanced at Conan dissatisfied, feeling that Conan, the brat, was interrupting.

Although Conan could see Moori Kogoro's dissatisfaction, in order to handle the case, he could only say:"The threatening letter was sent at ten o'clock in the evening. When I found it on Chef Wakabayashi's computer, the banks were closed at that time. How did he get the money of 50 million yen?"

"This is the truth."

Megure Thirteen quite agreed with this:"In other words, the murderer already knew that Mr. Wakabayashi had 50 million yen in cash, otherwise he would not have made such a request at such a late hour."

"I...I don't know anything."

Hirasawa Motojiro immediately shook his head and denied it. According to this statement, his suspicion will only be greater, but the problem is that he really did not kill the person. When

Conan saw this, he said:"But, I clearly saw it, Uncle Hirasawa When you heard that the ransom was 50 million yen, you unconsciously glanced in the direction of the kitchen. You knew there was 50 million yen in the kitchen, so you subconsciously looked there, right?"

"Fifty million yen in the kitchen?"

Megure Thirteen immediately signaled to Takagi Wataru and asked him to go to the kitchen to take a look.

Hirasawa Motojiro remained silent, praying in his heart that the police would not find anything.

"Police Department, there were drag marks on the floor and the food rack had been moved."

A moment later, Takagi Wataru shouted.

Maori Kogoro went to help and moved the food rack away with Takagi Wataru. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"There's a safe in the back!"

Megure Thirteen looked at Hirasawa Motojiro. Although Hirasawa Motojiro still didn't speak, the sweat on his forehead and the guilty conscience with lowered head said everything.

"Although there was no cash inside, there was a notebook, which looked like an account book."

Takagi Shita took out his notebook and looked at it briefly, and made a rough judgment.

"Could it be said that this is a yin and yang account book."

Megure Thirteen looked at Hirasawa Motojiro again. Not surprisingly, this should be the case.

"I am so sorry."

At this time, Hirasawa Motojiro had no luck anymore and could only take the initiative to admit his guilt:"In fact, every year we conceal part of our turnover and hide the underreported part here.

Mumu Shisan was not surprised when he heard this:"In other words, you have evaded taxes.""

"Yes."

Hirasawa Motojiro nodded painfully:"But only Wakabayashi and I should know about this matter. The kidnapper doesn't know how he knew about it."

Moori Kogoro speculated:".~Then there is only one possibility. You wanted to take all the 50 million yen you evaded from taxes, so you kidnapped Mr. Wakabayashi's girlfriend and then used the identity of the red sheep to blackmail him."

"Is that so, Mr. Hirasawa?"

Megure Thirteen looked at Hirasawa Kijiro and felt that the possibility of Mori Kogoro's reasoning was very high.

"However, if Uncle Hirasawa was the murderer, he probably wouldn't have left his real name when renting the doll costume.

Conan raised doubts at this time:"Moreover, the red sheep started to become popular on the Internet two or three weeks ago, but the doll costume was returned three weeks ago, which happened to be staggered in time.""

"This is indeed true."

Mouri Kogoro did not deny this, but he thought for a while and said:"Mr. Iwami, the owner of the rental company, said that after the doll was returned by (Nord Zhao), it was taken out several times. Could it be that someone wants to pin the blame on Mr. Hirasawa?"

"That's for sure, I didn't kill anyone!"

Hirasawa Motojiro responded immediately, and then said to Beppu Ryota and Takikawa Ami:"By the way, you two, I remember I gave you the carton containing the doll clothes, and I told you to deliver them later. The member will come and collect it"

"Hmm, but is this the doll costume in that cardboard box?"

Beppu Ryota didn't know that the carton contained a red sheep doll costume.

Takigawa Ami immediately agreed:"How could we know such a thing, Kai."

Whether this is the case or not, one thing is certain, that is, in addition to Hirasawa Motojiro, there are others who may have come into contact with the red sheep doll suit. It is not so absolute that Hirasawa Motojiro is the murderer.
