Conan's Strongest Uncle

Mouri Kogoro said, "Officer Yamamura, aren't you a police officer from Gunma Prefecture? Why are you here?"

Yamamura Misao touched his head and explained: "Nagano and Gunma are very close, and this is also the scope of our police department."

The hotel manager on the side asked, "Excuse me, what happened here?"

The fat man Shiozawa Xianzao said: "One of our companions was attacked and killed in the room on the fourth floor."

"Ah, how could this be!" The hotel manager suddenly looked panicked.

Yamamura Misao hurriedly sent police officers to the scene of the crime, and the officers began to investigate the scene.

After a while, based on the information inquired, Yamamura Misao took out the record book and said, "The deceased Saku Hoshi, 35 years old this year, was found dead at ten o'clock tonight in a room on the fourth floor of the hotel. The cause of death was The fatal wound caused by the dagger in the atrium is expected to take place between 9:30 and 10:00."

"May I ask which of you were the first discoverers at the crime scene?"

After hearing this, Ritsuko Usui raised his small hand: "It's me."

"Can you describe how you found the dead?"

"Everyone who came to Karuizawa for vacation this time has been having dinner at the barbecue restaurant downstairs and downstairs. The dinner lasted until almost 9:30. It was just me, Mouri-kun, and assistant Kuriyama. We drank a lot. Let's go back to the hotel together."

Ritsuko Usui glanced at Mouri Kogoro before speaking.

"Assistant Kuriyama and I went to Detective Mouri's room on the sixth floor together. After staying for a while, I left first, and then I took the elevator back to my room on the fourth floor."

Hearing this, Kisaki Eri, Xiao Ran, and Haibara flashed a strange color on their faces.

"When I came to the door of my room, I opened the door and saw the body of lawyer Saku."

Yamamura Misao immediately asked, "When did you leave Mr. Mouri's room?"

The three women are also very concerned about this issue.

Ritsuko Usui shook his head and said, "I drank a lot of alcohol at the time, and my head was dizzy, so I can't remember."

At that time, she was extremely sad, how could she pay attention to this!

Mouri Kogoro said, "It should be around 9:45. Assistant Kuriyama left around 9:50. There should be surveillance in the hotel."

Yamamura Misao tapped his head with a pen, and said to himself, "Fifteen minutes? How could it take so long to walk a two-story building? You have time, and you might kill someone!"

"In addition, this room belongs to Miss Ritsuko, and the room card is only in the hands of Miss Ritsuko."

Ritsuko Usui's expression changed suddenly, but she couldn't explain why she was walking so slowly. Could it be that she was played by Mouri Kogoro, crying with sadness, taking one step and taking two steps?

The hotel manager next to him said, "I want to say that the surveillance cameras on the fourth floor and the elevator were burnt out in a power outage two days ago, and they have not been repaired yet."

Hearing this, Mouri Kogoro's eyes narrowed, how could it be so coincidental! It just happened to be dead in the unmonitored fourth floor. It seems that the murderer really had a premeditated plan.

Yamamura Misao asked again: "Then ask the manager, is there any other room card besides the one inserted on the door!"

The hotel manager said, "Yes, there is another universal card hanging on the wall behind the front desk. It can open all rooms. Only I can use it, but I haven't used it today."

Yamamura Misao immediately sighed: "Alas, it seems that there is no way to listen to Detective Mouri's reasoning this time."

Xiao Ran immediately asked, "Why do you say that?"

Yamamura Misao held his chin and said: "There are only two door cards that can open this room, one is at the front desk, and the other is in the hands of Ms. Usui. The room is like a secret room before it is opened, and the windows and balconies are closed. Now, isn't it obvious that the deceased fell into the room again?"

"Ms. Usui is the murderer of this case. Except for her, no one has a room key to open the door and killed Mr. Saku."

"I think Ms. Usui should have made an appointment with Mr. Saku long ago, and asked him to come to her room at ten o'clock, and then took the opportunity to attack and kill Mr. Saku with a dagger. After cleaning up the traces, he ran outside and opened the door. Yell, pretend to be the first to find the dead."

"Mr. Mouri, do you think I'm right?"

Yamamura Misao looked at Mouri Kogoro expectantly, and Conan nodded slightly, it was indeed a possibility.

But Mouri Kogoro didn't answer.

But Ritsuko Usui said in a panic, "That's not the case, I didn't kill the person, I remember, I was standing at the door, rummaging through all the pockets and couldn't find the room card, and finally I found the room on the ground. card, I picked up the room card."

"It's possible that my room card was stolen before."

Yamamura Misao waved his hand and said, "It's also possible that the room card fell on the ground when you turned your pockets. Now it seems that you are the only one involved in the murder of Mr. Saku. Please, Miss Usui and us, go to the police station to cooperate with the investigation. !"

Usui Ritsuko's small face was suddenly stunned, his head dropped, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Today is really bad: I thought I would make a wish at Tokai Tokai, and I would get good blessings; I thought Mouri Kogoro was my real son, but I was tricked; now I am accused of being a Murderer.

Really, too bad!

At this time, a large warm hand was placed on Ritsuko Usui's shoulder, Ritsuko Usui raised his head, and saw Mouri Kogoro standing beside him, his eyes full of softness.

Mouri Kogoro approached her head and whispered to her, his warm breath hitting her earlobe: "Rizu, it's alright, I know you're innocent, you go to the police station with them, I'm here, I'll definitely be able to help You clean up your grievances."

Ritsuko Usui's eyes lit up immediately, as if seeing hope, and his mood suddenly improved.

A smile appeared on her face, and somehow she completely believed in the man who deceived her today.

Ritsuko Usui nodded heavily and followed the uniformed police officer away.

Yamamura Misao said in admiration, "As expected of Detective Mouri, the murderer cooperated obediently with a single word."

Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but give Yamamura Misao a blank look.

Xianzao Yanze said, "If that's the case, who is going to be Ritsuko's pre-prosecution lawyer?"

Hearing this unfamiliar term, Xiao Ran couldn't help but look puzzled.

Haibara explained: "This is to avoid the lawyer's escort system in the interrogation stage, which is only necessary to avoid the police's improper interrogation. Otherwise, lawyer Usui may be unfairly treated during the interrogation."

Kisaki Eri glanced at Mouri Kogoro, then turned to look at Kenzo Shiozawa and Yuji Mikasa, and said, "You all drank a lot tonight, so let me go."

She left with Ritsuko Usui and the escorting police.

Then the rest of the people were taken to the next room by the rest of the police and began to question them one by one.

Mouri Kogoro checked the time on his phone. It was already 10:30, which meant that the case would be settled within an hour and a half. He put on gloves and walked into the crime scene.
