Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 712 Death Message

"The presumed time of death is around 5 o'clock this evening. He was stabbed once in the abdomen, and then fatally stabbed again in the chest..."

In the night-shrouded red leaf forest, when Gao Cheng arrived, the police had already controlled the scene. There were not many people watching the excitement, only a few tourists who happened to be nearby.

"The identity of the deceased is still unclear. It seems that everything that can identify the identity has been taken away by the prisoner..."

A murderer fell under a tree with a knife stuck in it, and the bird's mouth police officer Yamamura stood beside the corpse in a serious manner, waiting for the forensic personnel to work.

"Have you found anything nearby?"

"The police in the jurisdiction found the tents where some tourists camped, and this blood-stained notebook."

The criminal police at the scene of the investigation handed over a notebook with a bloody cover to Yamamura: "It seems to be this person's notebook, with the name HOTUMI written in Roman characters on it, and the notebook fell about 100 meters away from here..."

"HOTUMI?"

Yamamura raised his eyebrows and looked at the man's body.

"Is he an idiot who can't even write the Chinese characters for his own name? That face always looks a little silly..."

Yuanzi followed Gao Cheng, heard the words and looked inside, and immediately exclaimed with Xiaolan after seeing the blood-stained corpse: "It's Mr. Hotumi!"

Gao Cheng also saw the corpse under the light of the police car, a square-faced man wearing a wool cap, a lot of red leaves mixed with blood on the sleeveless down jacket, he looked very miserable, thanks to Shancun Fuck, who would have seen a corpse The dizzy guy is still in the mood for a joke.

But this rookie policeman is already stupid.

"Huh?" Shancuncao noticed Gao Cheng and said pleasantly, "Isn't this a city detective? Wait a minute... why are you at the murder scene again?"

"We just happened to be at the bottom of the mountain and came here when we heard something happened." Gao Cheng looked at the suspicious mountain village speechlessly, "What's your expression?"

Yamamura raised his chin thoughtfully, looked at Yuanzi and said, "But you obviously knew Mr. Hotumi just now, didn't you?"

"It should be said that there is a little relationship."

Gao Cheng crossed the mountain village to explore the appearance,

Go straight to the corpse.

The corpse is just like that, it’s not good-looking, and normal people will not feel very comfortable seeing the corpse, especially in the dark woods where there is only one light shining on the corpse.

But it is precisely this kind of corpse that can reveal a lot of information.

It was around 5 o'clock when he was killed, which happened to be when he and Yuanzi were eating, which means that it was probably not an accidental killing.

Someone rushed to the mountain to meet Mr. HOTUMI immediately after discovering the message.

"Is he the one who entrusted you?" Gao Cheng turned his head and asked Yuanzi.

"yes……"

Yuanzi and Xiaolan were still a little scared, they didn't dare to get close to the corpse, they just stayed beside Shancuncao.

The victim was indeed a strange man whom he met during the day...

"Wait," said Yamamura Cao, still a little confused, "What commission? Do you really know this man?"

"I don't know, we met him here for the first time today," Xiaolan explained, "He asked us to help him pass the message, so we went to the Akaki Hotel in front of the station, and then met Senior Kido, who helped finish the message Then go to eat..."

"Send a message?"

"It's just a message on the hotel guestbook. Mr. HOTUMI said that he is the advertiser of the series "Winter Red Leaves". A fan wanted to know where the tree with the red handkerchief was originally tied on the TV location..."

"Winter red leaves?" Yamamura Cao was immediately attracted and interrupted excitedly, "I know this series is still being rebroadcasted on cable TV in Gunma County, and my grandma in the country also recommended me to watch it. I watched the rebroadcast I was immediately fascinated! Every Saturday night from 9:00 to 10:00, I will be on time in front of the TV..."

Speaking of which, Shancun excitedly took out a small TV: "Today is Saturday, so I brought a portable TV, hehe, although the home has set a timer video, but I can't wait!"

Gao Cheng and Conan ignored the unreliable policeman, and carefully checked the condition of the body after the police officers collected evidence.

The fatal injuries and the time of the murder were just as the coroner said. In addition to the two wounds, the victim's hands were also stained with a lot of blood and there were friction marks. It seemed to be related to the notebook found 100 meters away.

In addition, there was fresh soil between the victim's fingernails and soil on the trouser legs. It seemed that he had dug the soil with his hands somewhere, which made people wonder what happened in the middle.

And who is the fan who agreed to meet...

The mountain village next to it finally got back to the topic, and asked Yuanzi and the two about the victim, and was about to investigate further, when Gao Cheng's voice sounded next to his ear: "Officer Shancun, can I have a look at that notebook? "

"Oh, of course..."

Subconsciously, Yamamura gave the notebook out, and when he came back to his senses, Gao Cheng had already checked it with Conan with the notebook in his handkerchief.

"Detective Kido, do you and Detective Mori have this habit? Every time you bring Conan with you..."

"This kid likes to learn how adults solve crimes. If he is with him, he won't run around and destroy the scene." Gao Cheng smiled and rubbed Conan's hair, completely ignoring Conan's protesting eyes.

"Really?" Yamamura Cao bent down to look at Fisheye Conan carefully, and asked curiously, "This child is indeed very unusual...does he always have this expression?"

"Occasionally..."

"Exactly."

Yamamura didn't pay much attention to Conan, and soon talked about the notebook in Gao Cheng's hand, shook his head and said, "I've seen the notebook just now, it's nothing special..."

"It was stained with blood," Gao Cheng looked at the itinerary on the page of the notebook, "it seems to be pressing on 'April 1st' with a bloody finger..."

"April 1st?" Shancun Cao was stunned, "Isn't it April Fool's Day? Fools in April... Is this person really a fool?"

"Hey..."

Gao Cheng felt that the Gunma County Police Department had a brain hole and let this guy lead the team, and even made this guy a police department.

"Officer Mountain Village," the criminal policeman under his command couldn't stand it, and reminded in a low voice, "It may be the death message left by the victim..."

Yamamura froze for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "The news of the death... is it saying that the prisoner is a fool soon? I think it's better to call the crew of "Winter Red Leaves" first, and you should be able to find out about the advertiser. The specific identity of Mr. HOTUMI, so maybe we can find the suspect..."

"Isn't the suspect already there?" Gao Cheng returned the notebook to Yamamura Cao, "It's the movie fan who made an appointment with HOTUMI to meet at this location. It is said that the other party is the Chishu Hotel that checked in this morning..."

Judging from the time of the victim's death, the murderer may have discovered Yuanzi's message at the first time, and soon left the Chishu Hotel and went up the mountain after knowing the content of the message.

At present, it seems that this case is not completely clueless. As long as it is a senior criminal policeman, it should be able to solve the case. Not subordinates.

Gao Cheng looked helplessly at the village gymnast who was excitedly preparing to go down the mountain.

At least after contacting him several times, I feel that this guy is a good person, and he has the determination and interest to become a good policeman, but his ability to solve crimes is really worrying, and he is always superstitious.
