Conan: The man who rejected the criminal department

Chapter 539
After Conan inquired about the gossip he wanted to know, Sotakuya didn't care that Conan still wanted to talk, and asked directly to Megure Thirteen:
"How was Officer Megure's on-site search?
Has the investigation revealed the cause of Mr. Fujieda’s death? "

Hearing Zong Takuya's question to him, Megure Thirteen immediately stepped forward, holding the search report handed to him by the forensics class in his hand and began to report to Zong Takuya:
“The deceased, Mikio Fujieda, is the current owner of this mansion, and there is no doubt that the cause of death was a shooting.

but"

Mumu looked embarrassed as he spoke.

"Just say whatever you have to say, Officer Megure."

"Okay, principal.

According to the preliminary judgment of colleagues in the forensics department, the murderer who killed the victim was an intruder from outside, and then shot the deceased at the door of the study.

Three gunshot wounds were found on the torso of the deceased, but no bullet casings were left on the ground.

It should be done by professionals. "

Generally speaking, no matter how good the psychological quality of a murderer who commits a crime for the first time is, he will generally be nervous.

In addition, the murder process is very short, and the bullet casings are usually left at the scene.

But this time the murderer acted swiftly and neatly. Not only did he leave no traces, he was even able to eject the bullet casing in such a short period of time.

And the whole person did not appear within the surveillance range of the Fujieda family.

No wonder the forensic class would make such a judgment.

"I noticed that there is surveillance inside Fujieda House?"

Zong Takuya looked up at the bright surveillance camera on the ceiling and was speechless.

Although I don’t know what the Fujieda family’s original intention was for installing this thing, these things seem to be more decorative than practical.

Mumu Shisan nodded: "Yes, Section Chief.

After the victim received the threatening letter, he contacted someone to install these monitoring devices at home, but this was also because the victim firmly believed that the person who wanted to harm him was at home.

Therefore, the installation of monitoring equipment is not comprehensive. "

Sotakuya couldn't understand Fujieda Mikio's mind-blowing operation, but when he thought about it, Fujieda Mikio was originally a mind-numbing person.

It doesn't seem surprising that such an operation would be done.

If this guy had any brains, he wouldn't marry such a low-level green tea as his wife.

Sotakuya wondered if Mikio Fujieda's IQ was influenced by the eldest daughter of the Fujieda family.

Otherwise, there is really no way to explain it.

"Okay, did you find anything in the surveillance?"

"The door to the study cannot be seen from the surveillance camera in the study, but judging from the surveillance footage, it seems that the victim was forced to stand up with a gun and then shot."

"Huh? Show me the surveillance footage."

The police officer in the Forensic Division quickly brought in an external device, and the scene on the display screen was exactly the scene where Mikio Fujieda was shot.

In the picture, Mikio Fujieda was drinking coffee and reading in the study. After waiting for a while, Mikio Fujieda suddenly stood up from his seat and made a French military salute with his hands raised.

'This is.'

Sotakuya's eyebrows suddenly furrowed and he stared at the screen in front of him.

Mikio Fujieda, who was holding the French military salute, shook suddenly, and then only half of his face shown on the screen changed from surprise to horror.

Immediately afterwards, three bloody flowers burst out from Mikio Fujieda's body, and then he fell down on the carpet.

The blood flowing from his body quickly soaked half of the carpet.

"From the picture, it does look like an outsider committed the crime." Although Zong Takuya said, his brows were still furrowed.

He pulled the progress bar back to the time when Mikio Fujieda stood up, and watched it repeatedly. "Chief Zong," a police officer on the side called Zong Takuya gently. Zong Takuya shook his head and put down the screen of the external device.

"Did you find it too?"

"That's right." The police officer beside him nodded: "Mikio Fujieda stood up and raised his hands in surrender, which was a little too smooth.

It’s so smooth that it’s like”

"It was as if he wanted to stand up and stretch."

Zong Takuya completed the last half of the sentence that the police officer left unfinished.

After hearing Sotakuya's words, Megure Thirteen immediately agreed and said: "Yes, at first we also thought Mr. Fujieda's movements were a bit strange.

But the evidence given in the forensics class is too strong.”

Naturally, the forensics class under the rule of Gunda Ikumi will not make judgments based solely on surveillance video footage.

Mainly, the surveillance of the only way to enter the building from outside the mansion was vandalized, and they also found some footprints in the garden.

In addition, slight traces of someone passing through were found in the flowers leading from the wall to the building.

Although the flower bush has been carefully restored, the gardener of Fujieda House can still see the difference between the before and after flower bush at a glance.

"So it seems that it is more likely that outsiders will commit the crime?"

"Having said that, Mrs. Kudo has some objections to our investigation results." Megure Shisan smiled bitterly.

The case of Fujieda Mikio's shooting has actually been investigated for some time, but due to Kudo Yukiko's doubts, Megure Thirteen did not immediately withdraw the team.

But investigate it in more detail.

During the second investigation, Zong Takuya came to the door with a group of police officers.

"Mrs. Kudo? What do you think of this case?"

Sotakuya seemed to be asking Kudo Yukiko for her opinion, but in fact it was Conan himself who questioned the judgment of the case.

Just now, Conan said it himself that his mother couldn't reason at all.

So obviously, Conan is not crazy enough to shoot his mother with a tranquilizer gun.

This is a double act for Mu Mu.

Facing Sotakuya's inquiry, Kudo Yukiko was a little panicked for a moment, but the professionalism of a famous actor instantly attracted Kudo Yukiko to the scene.

The reasoning mentioned by Megure Thirteen was repeated to Sotakuya again.

After the incident, everyone rushed to the study room immediately, and Conan investigated the scene immediately under the double cover of Mao Lilan and Kudo Yukiko.

He found that Mikio Fujieda had kept the rope used for making bookmarks intact in the book before he was shot. The rope was usually placed on the last page of the book.

Mikio Fujieda, who was pointed at by a gun, could not have had time to do so, indicating that the victim did not die immediately after raising his hands and falling to the ground.

At that time, the housekeeper Ueki saw this in the monitoring room and subconsciously said to everyone, "Master, raise your hands" and led everyone astray.

Conan became suspicious of the butler after discovering clues about the bookmark.

But Yukiko Kudo, or Conan’s reasoning, has a fatal flaw: “According to what you said, Mrs. Kudo is obviously more suspicious of Mr. Housekeeper.

But you also said that when the victim was shot, the housekeeper was in the monitoring room with you to observe the deceased's movements. "

"The only ones not present were Mr. Shigeru Fujieda, the gardener tending the flowers in the garden, and the maid preparing midnight snacks in the kitchen.

How to explain this? "
