Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 746 Twenty-minute Alibi

The cruise designer Miwako Akiyoshi lived on the 5th floor. After everyone asked Hiroshige Kusaka, they then went to Miwako Akiyoshi for confirmation. If there was no problem, Hiroshige Kusaka's alibi would be established.

"I think Mr. Kusaka should be innocent," said Uncle Mori, "if we talked on the phone for half an hour, we wouldn't be able to commit a crime..."

"It's hard to say now," Mu Mu said angrily, "We still need to confirm."

It seems to be like this in every investigation. Maori likes to talk all over his mouth at the beginning, and then he said that he was joking when he was sleeping to solve the case.

But having said that, the sober Maori is the Maori brother in his impression. Apart from his skill and marksmanship, he is in a mess. He used to be like this when he was working in the Metropolitan Police Department. A good case is always led astray by this guy, like going through a maze. like.

Recalling the time when he worked with Mori Kogoro in the past, Megure couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Maori became a famous detective, and he was the most surprised...

"Mr. Misaki already mentioned the case to me," Mihako Akiyoshi, sitting in front of the French-window balcony, replied to the people who came to ask questions, "Mr. Kusaka did call at ten o'clock sharp, and we talked about In about 30 minutes, he talked to me about the project before. During the morning tea, he said that the story was about to be written. He hoped to hear my opinion, and he also said that he would call me at ten o'clock..."

"Thank you very much."

After Mu Mu asked, he took everyone away.

"In this way, Mr. Kusaka's alibi is established, unless the two of them are accomplices..."

"The phone in the room is not wireless, and it is impossible to go to the scene of the crime while making a phone call."

Shiratori nodded, and found that Mori Kogoro beside him had been thinking in a daze, and asked casually, "What's the matter, Mr. Mori? Is there any problem?"

"He must be thinking about Mihako." Mu Mu understood your expression, "After all, she is a big beauty."

Uncle Mao Li blushed and laughed, scratched the back of his head and looked at Gao Cheng who was still silent and asked, "By the way, kid Kido, when we passed the suspect, did you have any strange feelings? "

"No,

"Gao Cheng was still thinking about Hiroshige Kusaka, "However, in this way, Mr. Kusaka did have an alibi, but it made people even more suspicious. "

"what?"

Mu Mu said in a daze: "Having an alibi is even more suspicious??"

"Yeah," Gao Cheng analyzed, "I used this feeling before. The prisoner seems to be very sensitive to time. He didn't even have time to deal with the iron fan of the eighth generation president, and the murder time of the eighth generation father and daughter was too close. During the time Mr. Kusaka was on the phone..."

"That's right, but Kusaka-san did have an alibi. Could it be that Mihako-san lied?"

"It's not impossible."

Gao Cheng paused, then turned and went back to Akiyoshi Mihako's room.

"Eh?" Akiyoshi Mihako was packing her handbag when she saw Gao Cheng and asked in surprise, "You are a kid following Mr. Mori... What's the matter?"

Gao Cheng saw that Akiyoshi Mihako seemed to be going out, and asked, "Miss Mihako..."

"Oh, I'm going to the coffee shop. It's always boring to be alone in the room," Akiyoshi Mihako smiled, "But you really look like another famous detective, the one with the same name as Mr. Mori... ..."

Gao Cheng's mouth twitched.

He is that famous detective, uncle, that guy didn't introduce himself clearly, what about the guardian...

"That," Gao Cheng continued to ask after Mumu and others followed, "Actually, we still want to ask, is the person on the other side really the person you talked with Mr. Kusaka on the phone?"

"Well," Akiyoshi Mihako recalled, "it is true that he is reading the plot of the story..."

"Read a story? Isn't it a conversation?"

"Yeah, he read the plot for twenty minutes, and finally asked me what I thought, and I said it was quite interesting..."

"There is such a thing?!" Mu Mu asked in a deep voice from behind, "He was reading the story alone for the first 20 minutes, did you interrupt?"

"If he interrupted in the middle, he would scold people, yelling 'please shut up and listen to me', because I was scolded by him before, and then I tried not to interrupt," Akiyoshi Mihako said wonderingly, "Is there any problem? ?”

"Ah, it's nothing, I'm bothering you."

Megure left Akiyoshi Mihako's room first, and his expression became serious.

"So Mr. Kusaka's alibi is very problematic. The key is what happened in these twenty minutes."

"Maybe it's a recorder," Shiratori analyzed, "I've seen it on purpose. He brought a portable ic recorder. If he recorded the reading in advance, he can play the recording to Ms. Mihako. That's why we need to communicate on the phone. .”

"Shiratori is right, but there is no evidence, the recording must have been deleted..."

Mu Mu rubbed his chin and said to everyone: "Anyway, let's go to the eighth-generation father and daughter's room again. It would be best if we can find some clues."

The forensics team was still conducting investigations in Room 604. When they saw Mugure and his party, they took the initiative to explain: "The Mugure police department has almost completed the investigation, but there is not much to gain."

"What about the blood that was wiped off?"

"There is indeed a problem. The reddish-brown liquid next to the body was wiped. It looks like blood, but there is no blood reaction."

"How is this going?"

Mu Mu looked at the murder scene and couldn't think of a reason, and even Kogoro Mori beside him became a little silent.

"Ask the passengers again, maybe someone saw Mr. Kusaka leaving the room at the time of the incident."

"That's the only way, Brother Kido," Mumu asked, "Have you not remembered from the garden?"

"not yet."

Gao Cheng squatted beside the coffee table in the living room to check where the bug was installed.

The murderer knew that the eight generations of father and daughter would confirm the itinerary in the living room at night, so he thought he had a fairly good understanding of the ship's affairs. This is consistent with Kusaka Hiroshige who has interviewed and contacted the crew many times.

Judging from the alibi arrangement, the criminal who attacked Sonoko at the dock and killed Chairman Yatsushiro was indeed Kusaka Hiroshige.

But what's going on with President Guijiang?

Sonoko saw the prisoner at 10:11, and then the prisoner was locked in the mortuary freezer after being attacked. This part took at least a few minutes, and then the prisoner attacked the Yatsushiro chairman, opened the gate and threw the Yatsushiro chairman into the sea.

No matter how we calculate it, the prisoner could not go to Room 604 to kill President Guijiang before 10:15, and it was even difficult to get to the sixth floor.

The time arrangement is also unreasonable. The time that Kusaka Hiroshige can control is from 10:00 to 10:20, and it is even less than 20 minutes after counting the time when the call starts to play the recording.

If you go to the dock at the beginning, you will waste too much time.

Mu Mu arranged for everyone to continue to ask the passengers for questioning. Gao Cheng went back to the 5th floor after thinking about it, and saw Xiao Ai bringing a few children into Yuanzi and Xiaolan's room.

After coming out of the consultation room, Yuanzi and Xiaolan went back to the room to rest, and a policeman stood guard at the door. When they saw Gao Cheng, they immediately straightened their chests and vigilantly checked both sides of the aisle.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Gao Cheng said hello, and looked into the room through the crack of the door.

Sonoko was still lying on the bed, it seemed that there was no serious problem, but instead gossip about Sonoko and Shinichi, staring at the red-faced Xiaolan teasingly, and calmed down until a few children came in.

"It's all our fault," Mitsuhiko said in a depressed mood, "If you don't play hide-and-seek, Sister Sonoko will be fine."

"That's not the case," Yuanzi said with a smile, "Aren't I fine now?"

Xiao Ai reached out and touched Yuanzi's forehead, felt Yuanzi's stiffness, and said, "It seems that you are all right, but you are not so lucky every time, thanks to Shiroto finding you this time."

"Uh..." Sonoko didn't know why she felt a little sad subconsciously.

"But," Yuan Tai looked regretfully at the setting sun that dyed the sea orange, "this rare trip has come to naught..."

"Yuantai, how can you say that? Such a serious case happened..."

"That's true, but why kill people? Such a good trip..."

"It would be nice if everyone could live in peace."

Thinking of the murder cases that have been happening all the time, the few children suddenly became sentimental. No matter how much they like to solve crimes, they are still just a group of children, especially when they always come across cases every time they go out to play.

"Impossible." Xiao Ai also walked to the balcony with her hands behind her back, facing the sea breeze and looking at the sunset, "Humans are animals with emotions. Emotions can easily deteriorate when they are invisible, and they can easily generate killing intentions. It is very troublesome. What about..."

Yuan Tai and the others looked at each other in blank dismay: "But although my parents often quarrel, they are still very loving."

"Isn't this different?"

Sonoko's cheeks twitched slightly.

These brats actually discussed such profound things...

"Crack."

After closing the door, Gao Cheng put his hand in and turned to leave.

I want every passenger to ask this question. Not only is the workload heavy, but it is also difficult to achieve results. 10 o'clock is exactly the time for the movie screening, and even the children playing outside have been gathered. Even if there are many adults They are all playing in various entertainment facilities, or just resting in the room directly, no one will run around outside.

The suspect specially chose this time slot, and he might be surprised to meet Uncle Mao Li...

etc.

Gao Cheng suddenly stepped forward and looked at Miwako Akiyoshi's room.

Since the suspect encountered at that time could not be Kusaka Hiroshige, the most suspicious one was Akiyoshi Mihako. If this woman knew that Kusaka Hiroshige would play the recording in advance, she would have a chance to commit the crime.

Multiple cases are not unheard of before...

"Huh?" Gao Cheng turned his head and found a figure flashing past the corner, which seemed to be the nanny Ben Xia Fan.

"Miss Ben?"

"Detective Cheng, Chenghu," Ben Xiafan stood up with his head down, "The reception is at 5 o'clock, I want to ask if it will be held as usual..."

"Officer Megure is still at the conference hall, you can go and ask, but the reception should not be canceled..."

"yes!"

Ben Xiafan asked with a blushing face, and hurried back to the elevator, not sure if he was looking for Police Officer Mu Mu.

The reception must continue, and Hiroshige Hiroshiki's room needs to be checked again, but this guy has no intention of going out.
