Conan: Naruto

Chapter 233 But How Do You Know This? ? ?

Xiaolan turned to look at Mori Kogoro who was dressed and adjusting his tie, smiled and asked for approval:

"What does Dad think~?"

"Uh...ha!"

Sitting on the sofa, Kogoro Mori buttoned up his collar, glanced at Xiaolan, then turned his head to look at the flashing red landline phone on the desk, and changed the subject with an embarrassed smile:

"Someone left a message on the phone, I'll go check it out!"

Before the words finished, Kogoro Mori stood up and walked straight to the landline.

"dad!!!"

Xiaolan clenched her fists and looked at Mouri Kogoro's back unhappily.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi embraced their hands at the same time, watching Kogoro walk to the office chair helplessly.

"I'll see if it's a work call."

Mori Kogoro stretched out his hand and pressed the answer button, leaned comfortably on the chair, his eyes were always locked on the phone, deliberately avoiding Xiaolan's eyes full of resentment.

"Really!"

Xiaolan, who embraced her arms, had a feeling of being ignored by Mori Kogoro, and looked at the bohemian Kogoro unhappily.

"Brother Molly.

It's me, Mumu. "

The voice of police officer Megure came from the message on the phone.

"Officer Mumu?"

Mori Kogoro looked at the landline phone in surprise.

Police officer Mu Mu said apologetically:

"I'm sorry to bother you so late.

But can you please come to Saiki Sports Club immediately, I heard that the body of diving coach Naoya Saijo was found floating on the swimming pool. "

"what?!"

Mori Kogoro and Kudo Shinichi looked at the phone with solemn expressions.

Xiaolan's expression was terrified.

Dongfang Haoyue looked up at the ceiling, complaining in her heart with mixed feelings:

"Back at home, there is no way to avoid the murder...

Ugh......"

--------

Saeki Sports Club, very spacious swimming pool.

Police officer Mu Mu put his hands behind his back and looked down at the corpse lying on the floor in front of him, with a heavy expression on his face.

The two police officers used the same posture as Mu Mu, standing behind Mu Mu, one on the left and the other on the right, looking down at the corpse.

There was also a police officer half-kneeling on the ground, holding a police camera to take pictures of the corpse to collect evidence.

On the other side, Mori Kogoro opened the gate to the swimming pool first, followed by Xiaolan, Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi.

As soon as they entered, they noticed a dead body on the floor next to the pool, and...

One meter in front of the corpse, Reiko Saeki, Hisashi Kijima and Naruse in staff uniforms looked down at the corpse calmly.

Mori Kogoro looked at Police Officer Megure in the distance, raised his right hand, and called out in a steady voice:

"Officer Mumu!"

"Oh!"

Officer Megure heard the movement, looked up at Mori Kogoro, and calmly responded:

"Here you come, Maori Detective."

Mori Kogoro quickly walked towards Police Officer Megure with his hands in his pockets, and said apologetically:

"Sorry, I was a little late to hear the message on the phone."

Mori Kogoro stopped next to the corpse, looked at the corpse on the lower right, and asked according to detective practice:

"What exactly is going on?"

"It's just as you see it."

Police officer Mu Mu looked down at the corpse, and said calmly:

"Although our police are still waiting for the forensic autopsy report, judging from the stiffness of the body...

The time of Naoya Saijo's death was probably between [-]:[-]pm and [-]:[-]pm, and the cause of death was..."

"It must have been drowned."

Kudo Shinichi looked at the corpse with a serious expression.

Mori Kogoro leaned forward, turned his head to look at Shinichi on the right, and retorted rigorously:

"Even if his body is floating on the water, it cannot be concluded..."

Officer Megure looked at Kogoro Mori, and calmly interrupted:

"Our police also believe that the possibility of Mr. Saijo drowning is extremely high."

"what?"

Mori Kogoro was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Police Officer Megure in surprise.

Kudo Shinichi looked at the corpse and calmly analyzed:

"The body exhibited all the hallmarks of drowning.

You can see foam in his nose and mouth and a small amount of bleeding in his ears.

It is obviously caused by the pressure of water entering the body from the nose and mouth, which puts pressure on the inner ear. "

Kudo Shinichi looked up at Police Officer Megure, and said with a confident smile:

"So there's a high probability that the body drowned."

"exactly......"

Police officer Megure had a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, looked at Kudo Shinichi in disbelief, and asked in disbelief:

"But how do you know this???"

Dongfang Haoyue, who was standing on Kudo Shinichi's right, heard this, put his right hand on his forehead, and looked up at the ceiling helplessly.

"what......"

Kudo Shin's pupils dilated subconsciously, and quickly adjusted his emotions. He bent his left elbow forward, raised an index finger, and explained calmly:

"I remember when I watched TV last time, a certain suspenseful reasoning film mentioned the knowledge just now!

Hahaha......"

Kudo Shinichi held the back of his head with his left hand, and smiled awkwardly but politely.

Mori Kogoro glanced at Shinichi, straightened up, folded his arms, and analyzed in confusion:

"Naoya Saijo is also a diver after all. He must be very good at water. How could he drown in the water?"

"It looks like he hit something on the forehead?"

Dongfang Haoyue put down her right hand, stared intently at the forehead of the corpse, and reminded excitedly:

"Everyone, look!

There are bloodstains on his swimming cap~! "

"Ok?"

Xiaolan's family took a look at the corpse, thought for a while, and suddenly realized, Qiqi looked up at the 27-meter-high diving platform above the swimming pool.

"Haoyue is right."

Police officer Mumu turned to look at the platform, and narrated in a deep voice:

"According to our police speculation, he should have accidentally failed while practicing diving.

I heard that this practice is very dangerous. "

Officer Megure turned around and looked at Mori Kogoro, and explained calmly:

"I invite you to come here this time because I heard that you watched the diving practice here during the day.

So, I want to hear your testimony. "

"Yes."

Mori Kogoro folded his arms and confirmed regretfully:

"When he practiced in the morning, he was also on the verge of death. Unexpectedly, he really failed this time."

"Was no one with him then?"

Kudo Shinichi turned to look at Saeki Reiko in the front right, and asked according to detective practice:

"Did Saijo-san practice alone?"

"Is that right?"

Mori Kogoro turned around and looked at Saeki Reiko seriously.
