Detective Conan: The Unknown Killer

Hanami and Conan glanced at each other and nodded slightly.

It seems that the suspicious man has been wandering here for at least three days, although I don't know how it was a few days ago, but yesterday he rang the doorbell of the deceased's house, maybe he also rang the doorbell a few days ago, but no one was seen. Who is this man? What is the purpose of his search for the dead? Is it really a revenge ......

The atmosphere fell silent, and Officer Twilight said to Masao's mother, "If you see this person again, please contact the police, don't attract his attention." "

While Hanami was handing over the portrait to Officer Twilight, a man with glasses walked over, and this man was Masao's father.

He said very cautiously to Officer Twilight, "Well, Mr. Policeman, there is something I have decided to tell you about it. "

This tone can't be a message, right?

Officer Twilight asked, "What's the matter?"

"Yes, my surname is Miki, and I am a writer who writes at home on weekdays, and I am in this building now. As he spoke, he looked up at the crowd, "The room where I work just has a window over the deceased's house. "

When he said this, everyone became serious, and Officer Twilight asked solemnly, "What do you want to say?"

Miki was silent for a moment, and said what he saw.

It turned out that he had noticed a long time ago that the house never seemed to be occupied, because it was basically unlit.

At 9:10 last night, his eyes were a little astringent because he was staring at the computer and typing, so he looked up at the window, and the lights in the deceased's house were not on at that time. But after another ten minutes, he accidentally looked up, and found that the light was already on. He couldn't see the scene in the hall because he had drawn the curtains, and he didn't take such a trivial matter to heart, but he heard early in the morning that the occupants there had been killed, so Miki came to provide this clue.

"Thank you, Mr. Miki, this is indeed a very important clue!"

After collecting clues, everyone left the building, and on the road, Conan muttered to himself: "Judging from Mr. Miki's testimony, the lamp was lit between nineteen and twenty, which happened to be between nine and ninety thirty as speculated by the police. "

Kogoro nodded slightly, but he couldn't make sense, "Who lit the lamp, and why did you light it?"

"I have a speculation. Officer Twilight mused, "Maybe Fukuyama was asleep and didn't turn on the light, but then he heard the doorbell and lit the light and went to open the door, and then he got into a conflict with the visitor and was killed." "

Where did he know that Hua Ming immediately shook his head and vetoed: "No, in this case, most people will turn on the bedroom lights first and then get up and then turn on the lights in the hall, but the lights in the bedroom on the scene are not turned on, but the lights in the hall are on." Could it be that the deceased was sleeping in the hall?".

Officer Twilight was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hua Ming in surprise, what he didn't expect was actually thought of by a little ghost

Officer Sato approached and whispered, "Police, this kid is really smart, isn't he?"

Officer Twilight nodded slightly.

"This is strange, could it be that the light was turned on by the murderer?" Kogoro frowned and couldn't figure it out: "If I were a murderer, I wouldn't turn on the light after sneaking in, but quietly walked to the bed and stabbed Fukuyama to death, and turning on the light would cause the deceased to be vigilant." "

Hua Ming suddenly came out with an incomprehensible sentence: "Uncle, maybe the lamp was lit after the murderer killed Fukuyama." "

"How could it be. Conan preemptively questioned, "If the murderer wants to come in, the premise is ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly paused and seemed to think of something.

Hua Ming smiled at him: "That's right, if he can come in." Forgot about the pry marks on the door, I thought it was a trick, but now that I think about it, it is more likely to be the truth. The murderer did not wake up the deceased, but came to the room through improper means. "

I see, Conan nodded thoughtfully.

Maori Kogoro didn't understand, "Hey, little ghost." If the murderer had already killed Fukuyama, why did he turn on the lights?

"Have you forgotten uncle? Drawer! Looking for something in a strange environment, it is difficult to turn on the light, and the curtains are still drawn, it can be said that it was pitch black at the time, and it will be finished if you accidentally bump and leave a clue, so he has to take the risk of turning on the light!" Hua Ming explained to him seriously.

Officer Twilight was about to nod his head, when he suddenly realized that something was wrong, "Wait! Since he didn't wake up the deceased, why did the deceased appear in the hall?"

Hua Ming seemed to have guessed that someone would ask this, and suddenly grinned, "Because Fukuyama was in the hall from the beginning, but why? If you sleep, it is obviously more comfortable in the bedroom, so I guess he didn't sleep at that time, but knew that the murderer would come to the door, so he ambushed in the hall in advance to prepare for a big counter-kill! "

Xiao Wai glanced at him, "Hey, what kind of big counter-killing, what else does he want as an old man? He's not you." "

Conan also looked at Hua Ming speechlessly, "Do you think it's so easy to fight back? "

"Conan, you called me?" Xiaolan suddenly leaned over with a puzzled expression, and Conan hurriedly waved his hand to defend.

was separated by Conan like this, and it didn't take until he reacted. Yes, the deceased was a helpless old man, and his ideas were indeed a bit unrealistic.

......

The investigation stalled, and just as the forensic team was about to leave, Officer Takagi, who had gone to investigate the payphone, returned and reported to the police department that the mission had been completed.

Originally, Takagi thought that there would be three or four coins in the coin box, but when he opened the coin box, he realized that the number was already overestimated, and only one coin lay alone at the bottom of the box, as if crying that he was being left out by this era.

Xiao lamented: "Sure enough, modern people have basically given up the invention of the public telephone, and they like the new and hate the old." "

Hua Ming was a little speechless, "You don't seem to be human." "

With only one coin, Officer Twilight immediately called the forensic officers present to take fingerprints.

After a while, the fingerprints were extracted, and when compared with the fingerprints taken at the gate earlier, the forensic officer reported: "The fingerprints on this coin coincide with the fingerprints on the gate, proving that the fingerprints on the coin and the façade should be from the same person." "

"That's true!" the corners of Hua Ming's mouth raised slightly.

It seems that the person who called the deceased was the same person who had come here to ring the doorbell, the suspiciously squinting man. If you exclude the exception of disguise, Seiichi Yamada should be innocent.
