"After I heard Mrs. Imoto's scream, I thought something big had happened. I thought that if something big happened, I would be able to help Imoto, saying that he might not be able to lend me money again. So I hurriedly left the building.

When I got down and came to room 701, I saw that the door was not closed.

I didn't think much about it at the time, so I rushed into the house and took a look, and then I found Imoto lying on the balcony. I thought Mrs. Imoto accidentally hurt Imoto when they were arguing about alimony, so I hurried forward.

I went to check. Unexpectedly...I found that Imoto was dead," Tetsuo Dohashi said.

It was for this reason that Tetsuo Dohashi immediately thought of the fact that Takako Imoto and Mr. Imoto were going to divorce, and as a result they could not agree on alimony.

Hearing this, Aoki Song looked at Tetsuo Dohashi and asked: "Mr. Dohashi, did you hear anything when you were on the roof?"

After hearing this, Tetsuo Dohashi thought for a while and said: "Before Mrs. Imoto screamed, I did hear a sound, which seemed to be the sound of 'Kang' metal, twice."

"I understand! Thank you for your cooperation." Aoki Song nodded, then looked at Norio Terasawa and said: "Mr. Terasawa, you are next."

"Hey!" Norio Terasawa was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise: "I was not in this building at all when the incident happened, so I probably had nothing to do with it!"

"This is for the sake of caution. After all, you also said that you and the victim have a grudge. Theoretically speaking, you do have the motive to kill the other party. If there is no clear evidence that Mrs. Imoto and Mr. Dohashi murdered the victim, then our police

The next step will be to investigate Mr. Imoto’s social circle, and you will naturally be one of them.

I am asking you now to further eliminate your suspicion, so that I won’t bother you again. Of course, you can refuse now, but once you refuse, we will think that you are suspicious and will investigate you further. So.

Now can you tell me the time you left the building?" Aoki Song said seriously.

This is really not Aokimatsu intimidating Norio Terasawa when he knew that the other party was the real murderer. Although just looking at the words of a few people now, Takako Imoto and Tetsuo Dohashi are the most suspected murderers, but the case is not closed based on suspicion, but

It's based on evidence.

Even if the suspicion is the highest, as long as there is no evidence, there is nothing you can do against the other party. Any lawyer can win the case, but at most it will only ruin his reputation.

Just like Detective White Horse, he is the son of the police chief of the Metropolitan Police Department. All the clues in his hands clearly point to Douzi-san as Kaitou Kidd, but there is no solid evidence. No matter how suspicious he is, he will still use Douzi-san.

no way.

In this case, if there is still no evidence that Takako Imoto and Tetsuo Dohashi are the murderers, then the police will change their approach to investigate the case, that is, the murderer may be someone else, so they can't find it.

Evidence that the other two were the murderers.

According to the general procedure for handling homicide cases, if someone dies at home, an acquaintance will be suspected of committing the crime. So the first people to suspect are relatives and friends, followed by the neighbors and social network.

In other words, there is no evidence that the other two are the murderers. As the only neighbor of this building and the victim, Terazawa Norio's behavior of clearly going out and then suddenly running back will be investigated by the police again.

investigation.

Terazawa Norio was not stupid. He heard the meaning behind Aoki Song's words. Although he felt very depressed and a little uneasy, he still thought about it and said, "It should be around five o'clock."

The guard on the side took a notebook and corrected: "The correct time is 4:50, and he didn't come back until 5:12. It's just..." The guard hesitated a little as he said that.

He didn't know whether he should say anything or not, but he hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Qingmu Song quickly asked: "Just what?"

Mr. Guard closed his notebook and said, "I remember Mr. Terasawa said he was going to practice golf. Why did he come back so early?"

Norio Terasawa suddenly panicked and quickly explained: "I changed my mind on the way because I used to have trouble making up my mind, hahaha." He laughed awkwardly as he said that.

hehe!

Aoki Song twitched the corner of his mouth, what the hell is this reason? If it were him, he would never say such a reason, but would say - I suddenly wanted to play golf today, but I was delayed because of something today, and I walked halfway.

When I was at the golf course, I suddenly realized that it was getting late and I wouldn’t be able to play for long at the golf course, so I decided to go early tomorrow morning and have a good day playing.

"That's it!" Aoki Song heard this and said nothing more. Instead, he looked at Takako Imoto and said, "Mrs. Imoto, do you mind if I do a little experiment?"

Takako Imoto was stunned when he heard this, but then he immediately said: "You don't mind, police officer." If he minded, wouldn't the biggest suspicion fall on him?

Upon hearing this, Aoki Song turned to look at Tetsuo Dohashi, who was slightly nervous, and said, "Mr. Dohashi, please come to the balcony with me."

Although he didn't know what Aokimatsu was going to do, Tetsuo Dohashi still responded: "Okay!"

Then Aoki Song came over with an iron rod and knocked it against the railing, causing the railing to make a sound instantly.

Tetsuo Dohashi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly said: "This is it, this is the sound!"

After listening to Tetsuo Dohashi's words, Aoki Song looked at Takako Imoto and asked, "Mrs. Imoto, did you hear this sound at that time?"

Takako Imoto shook his head, "No, it's probably because I was in the toilet, so I didn't hear the sound."

Upon hearing this, Qing Mu Song immediately looked at a criminal on the side, "You go to the toilet and close the door. I'll knock on the railing later and see if you can hear me. You don't have to be very deliberate."

"Yes!" Criminal replied and immediately walked towards the toilet.

Maybe many people don’t know that Neon’s house layout is very strange. The toilet and bathroom are separated. Unless the area is too small, Neon people must definitely separate the toilet and bathroom because they think the toilet is

Dirty places must have a separate space.

In addition, unlike the residential house where the flower gardener enters, except for the shoe cabinet, most of the first rooms are kitchens. Most of the first rooms in Neon are independent toilets. And according to the layout of the house,

It’s different, it may be the living room, bedroom or study.

But there is one point to follow for such a layout, that is - the living room must have the largest and best lighting!

For this reason, it doesn’t matter even if the bedroom has no windows. In the eyes of neon people, the bedroom is just a place to sleep at night. There is no window to open the door and it will not suffocate people. But the living room is a place where the whole family often stays, and it is also where guests are entertained.

place, so the living room must have enough lighting.

In this case, the distance between the balcony outside the living room (if there is one) and the toilet is one of the farthest distances in the house. It is really possible to close the door in the toilet and not hear anything on the balcony.

But this requires experimentation, not what Takako Imoto says.

After seeing the criminal enter the toilet and close the door, Qing Mu Song knocked on the railing again. After waiting for dozens of seconds and seeing that there was no movement in the toilet, another criminal went up and opened the toilet door to let the criminal out.

"Just now, did you hear the sound of me knocking on the railing in the toilet?" Aoki Song asked.

Criminal shook his head, "Report it to the police department, I didn't hear it."

Aoki Song nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the guard on the side and asked, "Excuse me, have you heard this sound before?"

The guard shook his head, "I didn't hear that sound either."

Tetsuo Tsuchihashi was anxious when he heard this, "But I really heard this sound just now. There were two sounds of 'Kang' in total."

"Mr. Dohashi, don't worry. I didn't say you were lying. Of course, Mrs. Imoto and Mr. Guard didn't lie either. I can only blame the sound insulation of this apartment building for being a little better," Aokimatsu said.

At this time, Kogoro Mouri said: "Police department, even if he said he heard the sound of the railing, it cannot prove that he was on the roof of the building at the time! It is also possible that the sound was made by him or the victim on the balcony.

Moreover, if the murderer is someone else, wouldn't it be like a little bird..."

At this point, Mouri Kogoro really started to do the flying bird movements, bending slightly, spreading his arms, up and down, like a bird flying.

"Come in the air, kill the victim, and then fly away like a bird?" After Mouri Kogoro finished gesticulating, he looked at Aoki Song and said: "Police Department, do you think such an outrageous thing will happen?"

Hearing this, Aoki Song looked thoughtful and said, "Such an outrageous thing could really happen!"

"Ah!?" Mouri Kogoro was shocked, and others on the side were also shocked.

"The international thief who seems to have settled in Neon in the past year or so, Kaitou Kidd, can't easily fly in the sky. However, after his comeback, he has always been aiming to steal large gems, and he will return them afterwards.

, and there has never been a murder record, so it shouldn’t be him.”

Aoki Song said seriously: "But, since he can do it, then there must be others who can do it!"

This is really not an injustice to Mr. Douzi. His paraglider can even fly up to towers with more than 30 floors. This is only the seventh floor, so he can easily do it.

"Kaitou Kid!" Mouri Kogoro was immediately speechless. Aoki Song said that other people, Moori Kogoro, could refute, but when it came to Kaitou Kid, Moori Kogoro really couldn't refute, because the facts were right in front of him.

"Then who do you think can do it?" Mouri Kogoro asked unhappily.

After thinking for a while, Aoki Song said: "Assuming that Mrs. Imoto did not lie, if she wanted to kill Mr. Imoto in such a short time, she could only kill him with one blow and then quickly escape from the house.

But there is only one entrance to this apartment building, and there are no ropes or other things to climb down on the balcony. In other words, the murderers can only be Mrs. Imoto, Mr. Dohashi and Mr. Guard."

Another choice of three.

Seeing that the three people named by him were uneasy and wanted to see and talk, Aokisong quickly said: "But there are two possibilities. One is capable people like Kaitou Kidd, but there are too few such people.

, I’m afraid he doesn’t look down on the victim’s property.”

Although Ryusuke Imoto's wealth seems to be very large in the eyes of ordinary people, after all, he has at least one apartment building, and many people can't even afford a house.

But judging from the fact that he puts his business and home in this apartment, Ryusuke Imoto's wealth is much worse than that of rich people. If he was really rich, he would rent or buy an office building instead of

Putting the company in your apartment will give people a much different personality.

Therefore, the property of Ryusuke Imoto is not enough for those capable people to kill him, unless Ryusuke Imoto has tricked the other party.

If this kind of person was really responsible, Aoki Song could only admit defeat. Without seeing Conan, there was nothing the White Horse Detective could do about Douzi.

Fortunately, this is not the case in this case.

"Another possibility is that although the murderer killed Mr. Imoto, he was not in this apartment building."

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Especially Norio Terasawa, who had done bad things, felt his heart skip a beat and became uneasy when he heard this.

After Mouri Kogoro came to his senses, he asked innocently: "The murderer is not in this building, how did he kill Mr. Imoto?"

Aoki Song smiled slightly and did not explain anything. He just called Saito Kazuma and whispered a few instructions in his ear.

Upon hearing this, Saito Kazuma immediately responded: "Yes!" Then he called the names of several criminals and asked them to follow him downstairs.

When Conan saw this scene, he immediately understood something. Aoki Song, he once again beat himself to it and solved this case. Now he has asked his subordinates to find evidence. It's a shame that he still hasn't seen through this modus operandi.

Got it!

Unwilling to admit defeat, Conan began to think deeply and subconsciously raised his chin with his right hand.

[Looking at Brother Aoki’s actions, does he think there really is someone like Uncle Maori said, someone who flies over like a bird, kills someone and then flies away? How is this possible! 】

Conan thought for a while and then thought [Brother Aoki’s last sentence is that maybe the murderer is not in this apartment building, but how can he kill someone if he is not in this apartment building!

There is another problem, and that is the murder weapon! Judging from the scene, it cannot be that the flower pot hit the back of the head, but another heavy object, but this heavy object was not resting next to the body, so there are only two situations, one

It was taken back and taken away by the murderer. Another situation is that the murderer used the furnishings in the house to kill people and then put them back after the murder.】

[Little bird...the murderer is not in the apartment building...the murder weapon is not at the scene...]

Conan silently recalled all the clues in his heart, and then connected all the clues in his mind. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind: "I know, the murderer is..."
