Conan's Almighty Extraction

Now that they had doubts, everyone began to investigate the washing machine of Kumata's house, and found that the motor shaft of the washing machine was wrapped with a knotted rope.

Such a weird rope immediately made Criminal Inoki confused, and asked suspiciously, "Why is there a rope inside?"

Shiraiwa Maha, Conan and the others haven't figured this out for the time being, so they can only keep it in their hearts as a clue, and analyze it later in combination with other clues.

Next, Kogoro Mori and Criminal Inoki stayed here to deal with the scene, and Maha Shiraiwa accompanied Conan to investigate the place where the boat and speedboat were rented.

Soon after, the two came to the boat rental shop of Boss Inuyama's house, and were going to look for the boat rented by Lawyer Tachibana on the pier.

After Boss Inuyama saw Shiraiwa Maha walking on the bank, he reminded loudly: "Hey, it's too dangerous, what are you two doing over there?"

"Boss Inuyama, we are helping the police investigate something," Maha Shiraiwa explained, and then asked Boss Inuyama, "Which fishing boat is Lawyer Tachibana driving out today?"

"That boat, it's on the other side of the pier." Boss Inuyama spoke very well, and directly took the two of them to the small boat rented by Lawyer Tachibana.

Conan carefully inspected the boat, and found two strange scars on the right side of the ship, and quickly asked: "Grandpa, did this mark on the ship's side exist before?"

"Huh? This is the first time I've seen it. It should be newly made. I think it might have been made when the police brought the boat up from the sea. It's really troublesome."

After seeing the scars on the ship's side, Boss Inuyama seemed a little surprised, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "It's really unlucky recently. Although the boat that was stolen before me has been found, the anchor was stolen. I still have to spend a lot of money."

"Anchor?" Bai Yanmao was a little surprised, he didn't expect that someone would steal the anchor.

"That's right, if you don't want to be swayed by the tide when you go fishing, you will throw a heavy anchor into the sea to fix the hull. Also, the cables on my big boat recently are also weird. It was stolen."

Boss Inuyama sighed and told about his recent misfortune, then pointed to a rope resting on the pier, and motioned: "Look, it's a cable similar to this rope."

Conan's eyes flashed brightly, and he seemed to have some thoughts, and then asked, "Grandpa, haven't you found that cable yet?"

Boss Inuyama nodded and sighed: "Yes, I have already asked. The police said that the cable was not found near the ship. Not only that, even the anchor of the ship disappeared."

"So that's what's going on!" After listening to Boss Inuyama's words, Conan immediately showed a look of enlightenment, obviously figured out something.

After the investigation, Shiraiwa Maha and his wife bid farewell to Boss Inuyama. On the way back to the villa, Shiraiwa Maha asked Conan: "Conan, what have you learned?"

"Well, I already understand the murderer's method of killing Lawyer Tachibana." Conan smiled confidently, and told Shiraiwa Maha the modus operandi he deduced.

After listening to Conan's narration, Baiyan Maha narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in surprise: "I see, it seems that we were all misled by the murderer before."

"That's right, in this way, the time of the crime will be different from what we expected before. The other members of Lawyer Tachibana's family also have time to commit the crime." Conan nodded and began to analyze the possibility of the other people committing the crime. sex.

……

When Shiraiwa Maha and Conan returned to the villa, they saw Xiaolan and Secretary Sakuraniwa feeding the revived John in the yard.

After greeting the two of them, Shiraiwa Maha asked Secretary Sakuraniwa, "Mr. Sakuraniwa, what kind of case is it about the case of Kumada Tatsuya five years ago?"

Secretary Sakuraba waved her hand apologetically, and declined, "I'm sorry, as a lawyer, I have to abide by professional ethics and keep the cases I handle confidential, so I can't tell you."

At this time, the manager Sugimura in a purple suit came over from outside and said with a sneer, "Sakura Ting, you can only deceive children by saying such things."

Secretary Sakuraba frowned upon hearing this, but did not refute, and then asked Manager Sugimura: "Ms. Sugimura, where have you been these days?"

Manager Sugimura spread his hands helplessly, and said angrily, "I went on a trip, but I saw the news that the lawyer was killed, so I had to turn back halfway. By the way, is the murderer Tatsuya Kumada?"

Shiraiwa Maha stared at the manager Sugimura who didn't care, and asked in surprise, "Miss Sugimura, do you know about that Kumada Tatsuya?"

"This Kumata is said to be an outstanding employee in the securities company. One of his subordinates, Masahiko Tsuruta, embezzled the client's funds. After the secret was exposed, Tsuruta committed suicide. But from Tsuruta's diary, it was discovered that the real embezzlement of client funds The person was actually Kumata, so the police arrested Kumata on suspicion of faking murder."

"However, the resident who lived downstairs in Tsuruta's apartment pointed out that at ten o'clock in the evening, he heard the sound of something falling, but at this time, Xiongtian was singing in karaoke with a few friends and hostesses. , Kumada obtained an alibi and was acquitted by the judge and released."

Manager Sugimura did not have the concerns of Secretary Sakuraniwa, and after hearing Shiraiwa Maha's inquiry, he directly told everyone about the case five years ago.

Probably hearing the movement of the people talking, Mrs. Fujisawa and Mrs. Tachibana in black came out of the villa.

Lawyer Fujisawa looked at Manager Sugimura in surprise, and asked, "Ms. Sugimura, you only joined our firm three years ago, how did you know about the case five years ago?"

"I was curious, so I investigated who [TK] was, and I also investigated Madam by the way."

Speaking of this, Manager Shancun looked at Mrs. Ju with a slightly cold face, and said meaningfully: "It was because of Lawyer Ju's relationship that my father committed suicide. It's no wonder you hate Lawyer Ju so much, even at the expense of kill him."

"Bullshit."

Mrs. Orange raised her eyebrows, and retorted with a sneer: "If you talk about the motive for the murder, Ms. Sugimura, you have serious suspicions. As far as I know, you used a lot of public funds from the firm, right? It couldn't be the case. , you just killed my husband to silence him."

Manager Sugimura seemed to have been greatly insulted, clenched his fists tightly, glared at Mrs. Tachibana, and denied, "I never did such a thing!"

"Okay, okay, don't say a few words, wait for the results of the police investigation."

Seeing this, Lawyer Fujisawa and Secretary Sakuraniwa hurriedly persuaded the two people who were at war with each other, but Conan seemed to have thought of something again, and immediately pulled Shiraiwa Maha out of the villa to start the next step of investigation.
