Chapter 127 Self-destruction again

Stepping onto the balcony and walking forward, Qingmusong knelt down and observed the victim's body.

At first glance, it was obvious that the victim had been hit hard on the back of the head. Aoki Song did not touch the body. After all, the criminals from the forensics department had not arrived yet and there was no camera to take pictures and record the situation.

Although Aoki Song has already remembered the modus operandi of this case, he still needs to abide by the necessary procedural rules. He must develop good habits, otherwise if he cannot remember a case, he will have to rely on repeatedly checking the photos to find it.

Detailed clues.

In addition to the obvious injuries on the back of the head, the victim's shoulders also had some fragments from broken flower pots. Except for the fragments of green plants in the flower stands and flower pots, the entire scene was relatively clean.

He reached out and touched his skin slightly, and there was still a trace of body temperature. It didn't get cold and became stiff. It seemed that the time of the murder was no more than half an hour.

After roughly observing the body, Aoki Song stood up and looked at the entire balcony inside and out. After he finished the inspection, other criminals from the Metropolitan Police Department also arrived.

Because Aoki Matsu was in charge of the scene, the criminals who came were Saito Kazuma and others.

Aoki Song quickly asked the criminals from the forensic department to conduct an autopsy and take photos. He also pointed out a mark on the balcony railing with the person who took the photo. It was a crack under the horizontal railing. It looked like it had been hit with a sharp instrument.

Traces, very new.

It may be that stainless steel railings will not oxidize after being cracked, but they will accumulate dust when exposed to the outdoors, even if they are placed down. From this, you can roughly judge whether the traces are old or new.

After taking the photos, Denmi Criminal, who was in charge of the autopsy, went directly to the body and said while doing the autopsy: "The cause of death is initially judged to be a contusion on the back of the brain."

A contusion refers to a closed injury caused by blunt force, with intracutaneous or/and subcutaneous and soft tissue bleeding as the main change. The essence of a contusion is the rupture and bleeding of a smaller vein or arteriole in the soft tissue, and the blood is mainly in the loose connective tissue and soft tissue under the skin.

within the fat layer.

So from the surface of the body, there was no blood.

After Tome's criminal autopsy was completed, Aokimatsu began to question the people in the house, and the first one was the first person who discovered the body - Mrs. Imoto.

"Mrs. Imoto, could you please introduce the basic situation of your husband?" Aoki Song said.

Mrs. Imoto was slightly surprised when Aokimatsu called her name first, and then she said: "Okay, my husband's name is Ryusuke Imoto. He runs a real estate company and is the president of NEED. He is 39 years old this year."

It's the president again.

Aoki Song curled his lips when he heard this. Sure enough, in the world of "Detective Conan", the most dangerous profession is the president. It is indeed a high-risk profession. Aoki Song can't even remember how many presidents have died.

"Okay." Aokimatsu then looked at Mr. Dohashi and asked, "Detective Mori and his team heard Mrs. Imoto saying that her husband was killed on the balcony downstairs, and when they rushed here, they stood there

The person in front of the corpse is you, right?"

"Yes." Tetsuo Dohashi introduced: "My name is Tetsuo Dohashi. I am currently running the business of imported groceries. I am Imoto's former boss and also his matchmaker. I came to see him today for work-related matters.

.”

matchmaker?

Qingmu Song was surprised when he heard this.

Is it necessary to introduce it in such detail? Would a normal person introduce himself in this way?

If he didn't know the modus operandi of this case, Tetsuo Dohashi would be the most suspect!

Aoki Song heard this and did not continue to ask him. Instead, he focused on the real murderer. "Who is this gentleman?"

"My surname is Terasawa, and I live on the fifth floor of this apartment building. I used to run a fishing equipment store," said Norio Terasawa.

After hearing what Terazawa Norio said, Mouri Kogoro and Conan were both stunned, and subconsciously asked: "Before?"

Aoki Song also looked at him.

Norio Terasawa then explained: "Yes, my store was occupied by him! He used despicable means of taking advantage of legal loopholes. He is a very bad man!"

Norio Terasawa became angry as he spoke, and his tone was very offensive. Then he looked at the other people and said, "I'm afraid something similar to me has happened between these people at the scene and him!"

A good move to self-destruct and then lead to disaster!

Aoki Song raised his eyebrows.

It was a pity that Norio Terasawa met a senior scientist like himself.

Any suspect who takes the initiative to blow himself up and drags others into trouble is 80% likely to be a murderer!

The guy who blew himself up after killing someone on a golf driving range is already in jail.

However, since Norio Terasawa dared to say this, he naturally had no basis for it. After hearing his words, Tetsuo Dohashi and Takako Imoto both slightly tilted their heads and looked away.

Upon seeing this, Aoki Song immediately asked: "What do you two think of Mr. Terazawa's words?"

Even without others telling him, Tetsuo Dohashi knew that he was the most suspicious now, but it was not him who killed the person, so he tried his best to clear his name, so he was the first to speak: "I am his matchmaker, maybe not

It should be said that Imoto and his wife are in the process of divorce and have had a dispute over alimony. If he dies, he will still have a large inheritance even if he does not receive alimony."

Takako Imoto couldn't sit still after hearing this. He stood up and said angrily to Tetsuo Dohashi: "What are you talking about?" Then he walked up to the other party and said unceremoniously: "Mr. Dohashi, you are also doing it for the sake of the company."

Regarding the bankruptcy, I came to my husband several times to borrow money, but he was rejected every time, right? So you got very angry and killed him!"

【Here we come, here we come, let’s tear each other down!】

Seeing Tetsuo Dohashi and Takako Imoto blowing themselves up against each other, Aoki Matsu complained silently in his heart.

"That's impossible!" Tetsuo Dohashi naturally quickly denied it.

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Aoki Song quickly said: "Mrs. Imoto, please calm down. Mr. Dohashi and Mr. Terasawa are the same. Before the truth is found out, criticizing others will only deepen your own suspicions."

.”

"What do you mean?" Mr. Terasawa couldn't help but ask.

Aoki Song looked at the three of them and said, "Didn't the three of you just say the reasons for hating Mr. Imoto? You all have reasons for killing, and you are all suspected for the time being."

"That's right!" Aoki Song looked at the guard and asked: "Mr. Guard, is there only one entrance that can enter and exit this apartment building?"

The guard replied: "Yes, there is only one entrance."

"Then the only people who entered and left this apartment building today are: Mrs. Imoto, Mr. Dohashi, Mr. Terasawa and Mr. Security Guard. You four are all suspects for the time being."

"No!" Mr. Guard was stunned when he heard this. "I, I am also suspected!"

Aoki Song looked at the other party and said: "You have been guarding the door and are familiar with the other party's schedule. I heard Detective Mori say that they ran over after hearing Mrs. Imoto's scream, although Mr. Guard, you were already in the guard room at that time.

, but now we don’t know the exact time of Mr. Imoto’s murder?

It’s not necessarily that Mrs. Imoto screamed after you killed Mr. Imoto and found the body a while later. By that time, you had already taken the stairs back to the guard room. So Mr. Guard, you still need to take off your clothes for the time being.

No suspicion."

"Ah!" Mr. Guard was a little depressed when he heard this. He had really suffered an unforeseen disaster.

But who says that guards won’t harm people?

Sometimes police officers will kill people for their own benefit. For example, Kogoro Mori's senior is also the head of the fourth department of the search course - Katsutoshi Teraoka, let alone a security guard.

Seeing that Mr. Guard did not continue to ask questions, Aoki Song turned to look at Takako Imoto and said: "Mrs. Imoto, please tell me the details of the time when the body was found!"

"Okay!" Takako Imoto sat back on the chair, thought for a while and then said: "It will be about a little after five o'clock."

"To be precise, it should be after five past five." Mr. Guard interrupted at this time.

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this and looked at Mr. Guard.

The guard now calmly took the record sheet and said: "I have recorded all the entries and exits of the building."

Qingmu Song heard this and said with a smile: "This is really great, it can be of great help." Of course, the premise is that Mr. Guard did not write randomly.

Then Aokimatsu turned to look at Takako Imoto and said, "Mrs. Imoto, please continue."

"I came here today, as Mr. Dohashi said, to discuss the issue of alimony with my husband again, because I separated from my husband about ten days ago. When I came in,

My husband happened to be doing Tai Chi alone on the balcony."

"Tai Chi?"

"Yes." Takako Imoto nodded and replied: "In order to keep healthy, my husband does Tai Chi morning and night. When I came in, my husband didn't seem to notice that I came in, and I didn't bother him.

After placing the bag on the table, he entered the toilet.

After I came out of the toilet, I looked at the balcony again and found my husband lying on the balcony. I quickly went over to check and found that my husband was dead. I was so frightened that I couldn't help but scream. Then

When I came to my senses, I ran out and took the elevator down to notify the security guard."

Aoki Song heard this and said: "So, your husband was killed while you were in the toilet."

"Yes!" Takako Imoto responded.

"I'm sorry, how long did it take you to come out after entering the toilet?" Aoki Song asked.

Takako Imoto thought for a while and said uncertainly: "I think it's only about two minutes, which is the normal time to go to the toilet."

"In that case, your husband was killed around 5:80." Aokimatsu asked again: "Mrs. Imoto, did you hear any noise during the time you were in the toilet?"

Takako Imoto shook his head, "No!"

Qingmusong asked again: "Then did you close the door when you came in?"

Takako Imoto was stunned when he heard this, then nodded, "I used the key to unlock the door and then closed it after entering the house."

"Then after you entered the house, were you sure that Mr. Imoto was the only one in the house?" Aoki Song asked again.

Imoto Takako was stunned again when she heard this. She was not a fool. The meaning of Aokimatsu's words was very obvious. It meant that there might be another person in the room at that time. The other person hid when she entered the room and waited.
