A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 256 Uncle: I think it's suicide
In the uncle's car, Conan looked sad and kept gasping for air, while Xiaolan sat beside him and comforted him distressedly.

"Father, how can you strike so hard, Conan is still a child."

The uncle who was driving had no expression on his face and did not answer. He just glanced slightly at the two people in the back seat through the central rearview mirror, with a look of unkindness in his eyes.

"Uncle also met by accident, sister Xiaolan, don't blame him."

Conan, who knew he was wrong, spoke up to make a rescue. Although he wanted the uncle to be punished in his heart, he couldn't show it on the outside, otherwise he would be beaten soon.

Besides, as long as you can find clues to the black organization, it doesn't matter if you get beaten up.

In fact, the uncle did have the idea of ​​another beating in his heart. The original commission was over, but because of Conan's intervention, he was tired for no reason and had to run this time.

The most important thing is that he couldn't keep up with Yoko's TV show. If Conan hadn't helped him speak just now, he would definitely find another chance to punish this kid tonight.

The Mihua Hotel is not far from the office, and it usually takes about half an hour to drive, but the uncle was impatient and turned on all the firepower, and successfully arrived at the entrance of the hotel in 10 minutes.

Then the uncle took the lead and led the crowd upstairs, hoping to see him soon and end it soon.

"Mr. Maori, before entering the room, please tidy up your clothes first, and take off your watch if possible."

In the elevator, the reminder from Xubeikelu left the three uncles at a loss as to what it meant.

"Mr. Itakura has almost perverted requirements for clothing, and if there is something that doesn't suit his eyes, he will fly into a rage."

"Where's the watch?"

The uncle can still understand the point of clothing. He has seen similar things in his detective career over the years, but he doesn't understand watches.

"That's because Mr. Itakura has an unimaginable obsession with watches, and he doesn't allow others to appear in front of him with ordinary watches."

……

The uncle took off his watch speechlessly, regretting even more in his heart, he actually abandoned Miss Yoko and came to find a strange one, he was really full and had nothing to do.

The three of them are familiar with Itakura's habits, and they inadvertently revealed that the watches on everyone's wrists are brand new and expensive, obviously premeditated.

"2001...2002...2003...2004, this is the room, and there's a Do Not Disturb sign hanging on it, which really fits Mr. Itakura's personality."

Naito Johei raised his hand to try to knock on the door, and called Itakura Taku, hoping that the other party would open the door after hearing the sound.

But after several attempts, the door was still locked, and there was no movement from inside.

"Is Mr. Itakura going out?"

The uncle's tone was a little irritable. He was still in a hurry to go home and watch TV, but he didn't expect that the more anxious he was, the more problems would arise.

"Probably not. The light in his room is still on. I think Mr. Itakura may be asleep."

It was Conan who answered. At this time, he was lying on the ground and looking inside through the gap.

"It's also a way to wait like this. Let's ask the staff to come and help."

This proposal was approved by everyone, Xu Beikeru volunteered to run downstairs to find someone, and the rest continued to try to knock on the door and shout.

……

"This is not good, in case..."

"It's nothing in case. We were invited here. Mr. Itakura called specifically to say that if he falls asleep, he can ask you for help."

After the waiter came, seeing that it was room 2004, his face changed instantly, and his face showed embarrassment. This Itakura Zhuo is notoriously difficult to serve in their hotel.

Every time the cleaning staff wanted to help him clean the room, they would be scolded bloody, and finally simply skip the room, unless Itakura Takuyu took the initiative to ask, otherwise they would never knock on the door.

But now facing the persuasion of so many people, the staff felt very embarrassed. They didn't know whether to open the door. They were worried that if these people were really Itakura Zhuo's guests, if they were delayed afterwards, he would be complained and scolded again.

"Don't worry, with us here, he will definitely not blame you, maybe he will thank you."

As soon as this sentence was said, the staff's defense bottom line was broken. He sighed helplessly, took out the key from his arms, and prayed secretly in his heart.

"Don't expect thanks, just don't complain"

……

After the door was opened, the staff left the scene quickly. He didn't even have the idea of ​​going in to take a look. He only hoped that this group of people could stabilize Itakura Zhuo.

Everyone entered slowly, the situation in the room was just as Conan said, the lights were on, and from their perspective, Itakura Taku was lying on the table and sleeping soundly.

"Mr. Itakura, now let's see where you can hide. Tell us why you accepted the commission from three companies at the same time, and unilaterally extended the transaction time."

As soon as Naito Johei and the other three saw Itakura Taku, the anger in their hearts came up instantly, and they chatted and complained endlessly around Itakura Taku.

Seeing Takuo Itakura still lying motionless on the table, Conan suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

The three people around Itakura Zhuo saw that the other party ignored them completely and continued to sleep hard. In desperation, someone reached out and patted Itakura Zhuo on the shoulder, trying to wake him up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his palm touched Itakura Takuo, the opponent's body fell to the ground in a one-sided posture.

Only then did everyone realize that Itakura Taku's eyes were not only closed, but also wide open, but he had already lost his spirit.

"He... what happened to him?"

The three of Naito Johei were a little at a loss, and asked tremblingly.

"It is clear that he is dead and has been dead for more than two days."

When seeing Itakura Zhuo fell to the ground, the faces of the uncle and Conan changed at the same time, and they immediately gathered around Itakura Zhuo to observe.

The uncle with professional skills, after some inspection, quickly came to a conclusion.

"He should have committed suicide, to be precise, an accidental death."

……

Several black lines could not help appearing on Conan's face. He didn't finish checking, but the uncle had already made such an accurate judgment.

"The deceased should have suffered from heart disease during his lifetime. When the disease occurred, because it was too late to take the specific medicine, it led to cardiac arrest."

Looking at the special medicine for treating the heart on the table, the uncle thought for a while before blurting out the cause of death.

"Mr. Mori is right. Mr. Itakura is indeed suffering from a serious heart disease. Because of this, we never quarrel with him, lest..."

Needless to say, everyone understands the latter.

"Xiaolan, call the police, no matter what, you still need to ask the police to take a look."

The uncle's tone was full of helplessness, and his desire to watch the live broadcast was completely defeated.

Now that a homicide has occurred, the person who found the deceased is not allowed to leave the scene of the crime without waiting for the police to come and deal with it, even if the deceased committed suicide or was an accident.

"No, maybe it wasn't an accident"

Conan overturned the uncle's conclusion in his heart. At first, when he saw a bottle of special medicine, he did have the same idea as his uncle.

However, after investigating the surrounding environment, he found several suspicious places, the quilt on the bed was wrinkled.

This might be common in other people, but it would be a bit abrupt in a person with an almost abnormal mental cleanliness.

Moreover, he also found some very small new strangle marks on the chair under Itakura Zhuo, which seemed to be left only recently.

According to the three people, Itakura Taku disappeared a month ago, which means that he probably stayed here for a month. The strangle marks were either left by Itakura Taku himself or the murderer!
