Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 176 Hattori Heiji Takes the Lead
Because the murder really happened, Hattori Heiji looked very excited. He jumped up and down at the crime scene, just like Conan.

In fact, Conan was the same as him, jumping up and down on the scene, and it didn't look like he was sick at all.

Relatively speaking, Kindaichiji was not so happy, but he was also seriously investigating.

This case was a match that fell from the sky, and he didn't want to admit defeat casually, although saying so was somewhat disrespectful to the deceased.

It's okay if the deduction contest can't start, but once it starts, you can't give up.

This is not just a matter of face. After all, he is also a public figure, and his every move involves more than his own reputation.

He had a rare desire to win.

Although his ability is still a bit behind that of other detectives, for example, he can't intervene in the autopsy, but he also has advantages that other detectives don't have.

[Awakened Detective] is activated and consumes 3000 reputation points to obtain clues.

Kindaichiji's prestige is still relatively rich now, in order to win, he doesn't need to save the 1000 points.

He obtained a note that read "Three coffins".

What does it mean?

Is there no coffin in this room?

Could it be that this case is related to the three dead people?

Then why not three corpses!

Since it is a clue worth 3000 points, it stands to reason that it should be very important, a clue that points directly to the core, how can it be so obtrusive!
Perhaps the "three coffins" itself had some special meaning, but he didn't know it?
Do you want to ask Conan?
Let's wait a little longer. What if this clue is really critical and gives Conan a key hint to solve the case?
It's good that he solved the case, in case Hattori Heiji listens...
It's not good to be a teacher!
Kindaichi looked at the study with some annoyance, and couldn't help taking out the bottle of Laobaigan's sip.

Maybe drink a little wine, and your brain will be more flexible, and you will understand!
He assures himself that he is definitely not gluttonous.

After a while, the police came, still led by the Mumu Police Department.

"The deceased is Chi Cunxun, 54 years old, and his occupation is a diplomat." The Megure Police Department looked at the report in his hand: "The discoverer is the wife of the deceased, Ms. Gong Jiang..."

"Ms. Gongjiang, when you took the key to enter the door, Mr. Chimura was already dead on the chair, right?"

"Yes." There were still tears in the corners of Chicun Gongjiang's eyes, his expression was a little dazed, and he was not as stable as before.

"The discoverer also..."

"It's me, Mori Kogoro, Megure Police Department!"

The Mumu Police Department rolled its eyes: "It's you again...and that little star over there...have you been drinking?"

"I just drank a little..." Kindaichiji greeted Megure police department with a smile.

When he was drinking, he was discovered by Mouri Kogoro and he took part of it.

But this little wine is nothing to the two drunkards.

"What kind of wine do children drink!" Mumu Police Department reprimanded.

"Next time I'll definitely..."

"Since you are all here...then this time it must be another homicide case!" Meguro Police Department said.

"Well... I think he may have died unexpectedly due to a sudden illness, because there were no external injuries on the body..." Mouri Kogoro said.

"What do you think?" Megure police department turned to Kindaichiji.

"I think..." Kindaichiru rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment.

Usually, the police who solve the case will bring the coroner, and he just needs to hear the result, but for some reason, he didn't bring the forensic doctor today.

He didn't know how to do an autopsy, so he really didn't know if the deceased was a homicide.

"It was murder!" Conan said suddenly.

He pulled Mouri Kogoro's sleeves and pointed at the body and said, "You will know if you look at the body again. He is..."

"He was poisoned to death!"

Conan, who is good at stealing words, was finally robbed by others one day.

The person who grabbed the conversation was Hattori Heiji.

"The victim was poisoned to death. It is difficult to find without looking carefully. There is a tiny red dot behind his left ear, and a needle suspected to be a murder weapon fell next to the body."

As Hattori Heiji said, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to the Megure Police Department, which contained the needle that was suspected of being the murder weapon.

"Hurry up and take this needle for testing!" Mumu Police Department ordered.

"Although the deceased seemed to have committed suicide or an accident, he rested his chin with his right hand before he died, and the needle fell on his right side. This shows that it is impossible for him to use an awkward needle with a poisonous needle. He stabbed himself in this posture." Hattori Heiji said, "So, someone should have stabbed him to death with this poisonous needle and put him in this posture."

"The condition of the corpse can also prove my analysis." Hattori Heiji continued, "According to my observation, the lips, fingers, and toes of the deceased have all turned purple, and there are bleeding spots on the cornea, which are caused by suffocation." There are no signs of strangulation or drowning on his neck, mouth and nose, so there is only one possibility left, that he was suffocated to death by using a very strong nerve paralyzing toxin."

"Furthermore, according to the fact that the body is still warm, and the spots and rigors have not yet begun to appear, when we found him, he should have been dead for less than half an hour!"

"In other words! The murderer can't escape very far after committing the crime, it should be someone nearby!"

Hattori Heiji's reasoning made a head start.

"Is...is what this boy said true?" The Memu Police Department quickly confirmed with the forensic personnel.

"As the boy said, there are indeed red spots on the body, and the condition of the body is correct. However, the specific cause of death still needs to be dissected to fully confirm..."

"Can't you confirm it now?" Meguro Police Department asked.

"Sorry, we are not forensic doctors after all..."

"It's really a bunch of idiots..." Mu Mu police department slandered.

"Go for an autopsy, the result will be the same as what I said!" Hattori Heiji said confidently.

"Hey! Who is this guy!" Megure Police Department whispered to Moori Kogoro beside him with a look of concern.

"Hi! It's a little detective from Kansai called Hattori Heiji. He's just a little bit arrogant, don't mind." Mori Kogoro said with a wry smile.

"To... Hattori Heiji?"

"Yes, you know him?"

"Wow! Are you... are you the son of Hattori Heizo, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, Hattori Heiji who is known as [the Hattori of the West]?" up.

"Ben... this minister?!" Mori Kogoro was also very surprised.

"I am me, and my father is my father!" Hattori Heiji didn't appreciate it, and only focused on the case: "This case cannot rule out the possibility of outsiders sneaking in. The efficiency of my investigation alone is too low, so should we first Send someone to check if there are any traces of outsiders sneaking in?"

"Okay...you're right..."

Megure Police Department smiled awkwardly, then walked to the other side, and called Kindaichiji and Mori Kogoro to his side.

"Brother Maoli, and brother Jin Tianyi, you have to cheer me up, and you are not allowed to lose to that child!" Mumu Police Department quietly said to the two.

"Ah?" Mori Kogoro was a little confused about the situation.

"Do you want to see that outsider continue to be arrogant on our territory?!" The Megure police department stared at Kogoro Mori bitterly.

"Don't worry, Police Department Megure, we won't embarrass Dongfang!" Kindaichiji said in a low voice and quickly pulled Maoli.

"Yes! Me too!" Mori Kogoro said loudly.

Everyone's eyes were attracted, Mori Kogoro smiled awkwardly at everyone.

The Mumu Police Department felt that this old man might not be able to count on this time.

Kindaichi and Er weren't too worried, because he didn't count on this confused detective in the first place. Even if he didn't have the confidence to defeat Hattori Heiji in the end, they still had the last trump card.

The real thigh is actually Conan Edogawa.

"Ah!"

Conan sneezed a lot, and seemed to turn redder...
Shouldn't be a problem...
