Detective Conan: Twelve Death Warlocks

"Well...of course it's in the staff room, but the key is already rusty. I remember a few months ago, the employee forgot to give him the key when he handed over the shift, and he ended up taking it.

When I opened the power distribution room for inspection with the backup key, the key could not open the door, so I finally called the employee to deliver the key."

"Oh, thank you." Conan has now determined that this is definitely not an internal crime. However, he is also uncertain about how the murderer sneaked into the room and what method he used to commit the murder.

Conan was in the corridor, pacing. The power outage was accidental, but there was only one door so close. Why couldn't they hear anything? But think about it, after drinking so much wine, even if they heard it

, and I don’t think anything big has happened.

When they returned to the room, Chiba Kazunobu and Mouri Kogoro were questioning the three people outside. The three people seemed to be a little disgusted: "We all said that the three of us were outside at the time, and it was Mikuma.

The guy himself said he drank a little too much, so he went back to the room to rest. After we finished drinking, we went to sleep next door."

"next door?"

"Yes, the three of us are also tenants here, and are painters from the same association. This time we came out together for academic exchanges, and the other thing was to choose a suitable art museum for the next two-month art exhibition. In this regard,

I believe the police should easily investigate and get results."

Another person was very unhappy: "Besides, before we left, we heard Sanxiong coughing from his room. I think he was probably still alive at that time!"

Coughing sound? Conan was a little surprised, but still frowned. In theory, it should be impossible. However, it is not inevitable that coughing will not occur after falling asleep. Generally speaking, it is because the human nervous system changes after falling asleep.

Excitability will decrease and coughing will not occur.

Conan asked the police officer outside about other things, but the police officer didn't know anything about it. Conan suddenly had a headache. What on earth did this guy do? Conan had to use the name of Kogoro Mouri to get him.

The police officer investigates these and then takes a look at the scene to see if there is anything he missed.

When he arrived at the door of the bedroom, Conan looked at the mess there, then turned to look at the place where the corpse was found in the bedroom, and found that it was not a straight line. And in that place, there were indeed traces of being pressed by something. Could it be that

…

Conan borrowed a camera from the forensics officer. If this was really the case, then there must be something like this on the victim. When he saw something, a faint smile appeared on Conan's lips.

"Mr. Mori, I have already investigated the matter you entrusted me to investigate." When Kogoro Mori was surprised, the police officer told them all the information he had investigated. "After careful investigation and phone calls,

When I consulted the victim’s wife, I found that the victim was very afraid of heat and usually liked to turn the air conditioner to the maximum to make the room as cold as a refrigerator, but the air conditioner was turned off when the victim was found.”

One of the people inside was a little surprised, but then he said: "What's the matter? Didn't the hotel have a power outage? I think it was because of the power outage that the air conditioner in the hotel room stopped running."

The hotel waiter shook his head slightly: "This is impossible. In fact, we have introduced a new type of air conditioner made in Germany. Even if the power is cut off for several years and the power is reconnected, the battery on the internal circuit board will automatically store the air conditioner.

The last time you adjusted the data, it was until the battery inside ran out. This can be verified by product maintenance personnel, and with this smart air conditioner, you can also find out when it was adjusted."

"Eh?" Conan was a little surprised, as if he thought this was too high-tech!

Officer Chiba nodded like the forensics officer next to him, and the forensics officer took the remote control and found the information under the guidance of the waiter next to him. Moreover, this kind of record cannot be cleared. Moreover, this is also

There is no need to clear it. And after the adjustment is confirmed ten times, the previous data will be overwritten.

"Police Officer Chiba. The evidence collection has been completed. The adjustment of the air conditioner is basically consistent with the time when the murder occurred."

Chiba and Nobu just looked at the three people, wanting to see what else they had to say.

"Officer, you can't just rely on this to conclude that we are the murderers of the victim! This can only mean that the victim was killed around this time."

"Oh? Is this really true?" Mouri Kogoro's voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone, which really startled them, "Is the matter really as you said, that Mr. Mikuma adjusted it before he was killed?

I think this is impossible no matter how you think about it!”

Chiba and Shin were a little stunned when they saw Mouri Kogoro's posture: "Mr. Mouri, your reasoning has begun!"

These people were also a little surprised. They wanted to know what Mouri Kogoro was going to say, so they heard Moori Kogoro snort coldly: "Do you think that someone like Mr. Mikuma who is afraid of the cold will turn up the air conditioner in the room?"

What's more, it's still in this weather. Even the police officers here, who is not sweating?"

Chiba Kazuno wiped the sweat from his forehead and seemed to understand a little. He thought before that it was because he was too fat and his body was slightly weak, causing him to sweat! Now when Kogoro Mouri mentioned it, he discovered that because

Due to the rigor of the on-site investigation, the air conditioner in the room was temporarily turned off, causing the temperature to rise.

"I usually like to turn the air conditioner to the maximum, but when I was discovered, the air conditioner was not turned on in the room. This is impossible for the victim Mikuma Yuki, and the only reasonable explanation is that the power outage for half an hour caused the room to be empty.

All electrical appliances are turned off.

"After the maintenance workers repaired the circuit, because the air conditioner had been on before the power outage, the temperature in the room was still very low, or the victim was drunk and did not wake up at the time, so he did not turn on the air conditioner that was turned off due to the power outage.

He died before he noticed the temperature in the room rising, so the air conditioner was turned off when he was discovered. If that were the case, I think the police would have given up the idea. I’m right!”

After hearing Mouri Kogoro's reasoning, Chiba Kazushi nodded slightly.
