Conan: Naruto

"Two security guards?"

Mori Kogoro looked at Officer Megure in surprise.

Megure recalled explaining:

"According to them, a cat ran into the yard of the dead and tripped the alarm to activate the alarm mechanism.

Also, the reason why I asked Mr. Quan to come over was because the victim had met him before his death. "

When Takeo Izumi heard Officer Megure mentioning himself, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but no one noticed.

After Mumu finished speaking, Takeo quickly raised his head to look at Mumu again, and responded nervously:

"Ah...yes!"

"So......"

Mori Kogoro held his chin with his right hand, and was about to analyze it, but suddenly realized that he didn't know the identity of the deceased.

He looked down at the corpse on the floor on the left, and asked in bewilderment:

"Who is this dead man?"

"The name of the deceased is Kojima Ikuko, a chairman who sells electrical products."

Police officer Mu Mu paused for two seconds, and said heavily:

"She was strangled to death."

Dongfang Haoyue looked at Police Officer Mu Mu with a confused face, and said helplessly in her heart:

"Last night's homicide was the death of the chairman of Horita Heavy Industries.

This morning, Shinichi and I worked hard to solve the murder case, and finally found Ryoji who was tied up by Yamauchi in the basement.

In the end, only a dozen hours later, I met another chairman who was strangled to death...

Ugh......"

Dongfang Haoyue sighed deeply in her heart.

--------

10 minutes later.

A spacious room in a villa.

"Now that the witnesses are all here, let's get started."

Standing in front of a TV, Police Officer Mu Mu with his hands behind his back, glanced at the three suspects sitting around the wooden table one by one.

Mu Mu turned his head to look at Mori Kogoro on the right, and introduced seriously:

"The one on the sofa opposite is the victim's daughter, Ms. Chihiro Kojima.

The one on the chair on the left is Mr. Juro Yoshioka who was the first to find the body. "

"Officer Mumu."

Yoshioka Juro folded his hands, looked at Police Officer Megure in the front right, and asked in confusion:

"Who is that man standing next to you?"

"Cough cough."

Mori Kogoro placed his right hand in front of his chin, coughed twice, looked sideways at Juro Yoshioka, put his right hand on his hip, and grandly introduced himself:

"I am a detective, Mori Kogoro!"

"Maori Kogoro?!"

Yoshioka Juro leaned forward, shocked.

"That famous detective!?"

Chihiro Kojima, who was wearing purple lipstick, had dilated pupils and looked at Kogoro Mori in surprise.

Police officer Mu Mu looked down at the notebook in his hand, and said calmly:

"According to the anti-theft videotape.

Mr. Quan arrived at [-]:[-] pm and left at [-]:[-].

Miss Chihiro arrived at [-]:[-] and left at [-]:[-].

Mr. Yoshioka arrived at [-]:[-]. After discovering the body, he called the police at [-]:[-]. "

Officer Mumu looked up at the three suspects, and calmly confirmed:

"The above information should be correct."

"Since the information is provided by the video tape, can there be any mistakes?"

Chihiro Kojima turned her head away while clasping her arms, and closed her eyes.

Shinichi Kudo, who was standing on the right of Kogoro Mori, looked at Chihiro in amazement, and wondered in his heart:

"The victim is Miss Qianxun's biological mother, why can't I see any signs of sadness on her body?"

Dongfang Haoyue, who was standing on Kudo Shinichi's right, looked at Kojima Chihiro along Shinichi's line of sight, and thought in surprise:

"Shinichi looks at Chihiro Kojima with this expression?

Could it be... that the prisoner wasn't Takeo Izumi who had a very poor mental quality just now, but this Miss Chihiro who didn't show any sadness about her mother's death? "

"Miss Chihiro."

Officer Megure looked at Chihiro Kojima, and calmly confirmed:

"Ikuko Kojima should have been alive when you came here.

right? "

"what do you mean?!"

Kojima Chihiro looked at Police Officer Megure angrily, and asked unhappily:

"Do you think I killed my own mother!?"

"Ah... no no no."

Officer Megure bent his elbows inward, spread his palms towards Chihiro Kojima, and explained embarrassingly:

"I didn't mean that.

I mean......"

Officer Megure turned his head to Kogoro Mori, and analyzed calmly:

"If Kojima Ikuko was still alive at that time, he should have been killed between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-]."

Dongfang Haoyue looked at Police Officer Mumu, and thought puzzledly in her heart:

"Why didn't the police determine the time of the killing based on the results of the autopsy?

Is it because the three suspects arrived at the scene too close together, so it is impossible to determine who the murderer is through the autopsy? "

Kudo Shinichi looked up at Police Officer Megure, and asked according to detective practice:

"What about the windows and doors?"

"Ok?"

Officer Megure was taken aback for a moment, turned sideways, looked down at Shinichi Kudo, and replied calmly:

"When Mr. Yoshioka came, only the entrance door was kept open, and the other windows were locked from inside the house."

"It seems."

Mori Kogoro folded his hands, turned to look at Police Officer Megure, and said firmly:

"The murderer must be one of the three suspects who entered the room through the entrance!"

The three suspects were slightly taken aback.

Officer Meguro looked at Takeo Izumi, and calmly analyzed:

"If it is inferred from the time of the incident, Mr. Quan's murder suspicion should be ruled out."

"I know this man's motive for killing my mother!"

Kojima Chihiro leaned forward, looked at Police Officer Megure, and said excitedly:

"My mother is planning to sue this man recently!"

Kojima Chihiro pointed at Takeo Izumi, and said with great dissatisfaction:

"This person invested in stocks without authorization and caused my mother to lose nearly [-] million yen!"

"I......"

Takeo Izumi looked at Chihiro Kojima with some guilt.

Mori Kogoro stared at Takeo, and said sharply:

"The murderer is indeed you!"

"Do not......"

Takeo Izumi looked nervously at Kogoro Mori.

Kogoro analyzed seriously:

"You pretended to leave at [-]:[-], but actually sneaked in while the door was open and strangled Kojima Ikuko to death."

"But I don't think he should be the murderer."

Shinichi Kudo put his hands in his pockets, looked up at Kogoro Mouri, and said calmly:

"If the murderer killed Ikuko Kojima between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-], Mr. Izumi couldn't have time to kill."

"why?"

Mori Kogoro bent over, put his hands on his thighs, and looked at Kudo Shinichi in confusion.

Dongfang Haoyue stood on Xinyi's right, looked at Kogoro with a smile, and explained innocently:

"Because at [-]:[-], Mr. Quan almost ran into you, Uncle, with his car!"
