My neighbor's name is Conan

No one in this world is a fool.

But after Yutaka Araki recognized Aoki Song, he immediately guessed something.

Aoki Song heard what Araki Yutaka said, and he simply admitted, "This morning we found that Mr. Shirai was murdered in his store in Tokyo."

"Ah!" Yutaka Araki, Saburo Haruna, and Takashi Ishida were all shocked when they heard this.

"Mr. Shirai was killed?" Yutaka Araki couldn't believe it.

At this time, Ishida Takashi asked with some confusion: "Since he was killed in Tokyo, why did you come all the way here to investigate?"

"This case has not been closed yet. It is not convenient for me to reveal the specific information immediately." Aoki Song looked at the three of them and asked, "By the way, where did you go last night?"

"What are you doing? You won't suspect that we did it, right?" Yutaka Araki said somewhat unhappily.

"Of course not." Qingmusong lied. In fact, when he discovered the fuyetu, he felt that the murderer should be one of the three people.

Choose one of three classics!

Besides, this is an everyday case, not the kind of case that can be compared to a theatrical version.

Aoki Song has more or less an image of that kind of case in his mind.

And I have no impression of this case at all, so it must not be difficult.

According to Ke Xue, the three people in front of him are not the most likely murderers.

"It's just for the sake of caution." Aoki Song lied. Only a fool would say that he really doubted the other party.

Yutaka Araki curled his lips when he heard this, but he still said: "After the truck was stolen, I immediately called the police and asked the police to help me find it. The murder of Mr. Shirai had nothing to do with me."

Then Saburo Haruna said: "I drove around looking for our truck all night last night, but I still couldn't find it."

"Are you driving to find it yourself?" Brother Cao on the side was shocked after hearing Haruna Saburo's words!

Haruna Saburo nodded, "That's right!"

Seeing Brother Cao looking at him, Ishida Takashi quickly said: "I was interviewing at the museum before six o'clock yesterday evening, and then I went back to Tokyo directly. Today I made an appointment with people here to continue the interview, so I came to Gunma again. .

But this case has nothing to do with me. As for Mr. Shirai, I don’t know him at all. "

After hearing this, Aoki Song thought for a while, looked at Yutaka Araki and Saburo Haruna and asked, "Two of you, when you put the beetles into the carriage and returned to the insect hall to deal with the matter, is there anyone who can prove this for you?"

Yutaka Araki and Saburo Haruna shook their heads.

Then Aokimatsu looked at Haruna Saburo and asked: "Mr. Haruna, you drove to find the truck by yourself. Were you the only one in the truck at that time?"

"I am alone, Araki is with the police." Haruna Saburo replied.

Yes, none of the three of them have alibi.

However, from the words of the three, Aoki Song felt that Ishida Takashi was the most suspicious, followed by Haruna Saburo, and finally Araki Yutaka.

The truck was stolen at seven o'clock in the evening, and Ishida Takashi left the museum at six o'clock. He had time to return after leaving and then lurk nearby. In addition, Ishida Takashi said that he returned to Tokyo yesterday, which is consistent with the murderer's whereabouts of carrying the body back to the pet shop.

As for Haruna Saburo, because he was driving the car alone, he might also take the opportunity to transport the body to Tokyo.

The reason why his suspicion is lower than that of Ishida Takashi is because he is researching and managing those things. If you want to steal, it is easy to steal some on a daily basis or just "scrap" some. There is no need to steal trucks. This one comes out.

Yutaka Araki has been following the police since the truck was stolen, so the suspicion on him is naturally smaller.

However, considering the unnatural movements of the legs of the corpse, it is also possible that Yutaka Araki killed the person first, hid it in a place, and then transported the body to Tokyo after being separated from the police.

However, there is still a question here, and that is - why bother transporting the body back to Tokyo instead of burying it directly on the spot.

Gunma Prefecture is a mountainous and forested place.

Yutaka Araki and Saburo Haruna are not on their way!

Therefore, Aoki Song’s current main suspect is Ishida Takashi!

It is very likely that after he and Shirai Minoru stole the truck, Ishida Takashi killed Shirai Minoru due to uneven division of accounts or other reasons. Since he had already arrived in Tokyo, he could only throw the body away in Shirai Minoru's pet shop.

However, in the rush and desperation, he did not notice that there was leaf rot on the hair of the corpse, nor did he notice that the cap of the glass bottle in Shirai Minori's pocket had fallen onto the car.

Thinking of this, Aokimatsu looked at Haruna Saburo and asked: "Mr. Haruna, may I ask if leaf mold is needed to grow beetles?"

Haruna Saburo heard this and replied: "The leaf rot soil is specially used to cultivate larvae."

If that were the case, it would make sense.

Cultivating larvae requires leaf mold soil. It seems that the prisoner accidentally spilled the "boxes" containing the leaf mold soil and larvae when moving them. Not only did it fall to the ground, but it also fell on Shirai Minoru's hair.

But in this case, when the prisoner transferred the "box", Shirai Minoru should have been killed and fell to the ground, so that the soil would be stained on his hair.

Thinking of this, Aoki Song took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Shiratori Rensaburo, asking him to investigate the mobile phone communication records of these three people to see who has been in contact with Shirai Minoru in the past few days, especially the one whose truck was stolen. before and after the time period.

The focus is on phone calls and text messages. It would be better if the content of text messages could be intercepted.

But under normal circumstances, only communication records can be found, and the content of text messages requires certain procedures and means. That's why Aoki Matsu contacted Shiratori Rensaburo instead of Maruta Ayumi. Ayumi Maruta didn't have the ability to handle this, but Rensaburo Shiratori did.

After sending the text message and receiving a reply from Shiratori Rensaburo, Aoki Song just walked over when Ishida Takashi's cell phone rang. He quickly took it out and read it. It was also a text message, and he quickly replied.

At this time, Yutaka Araki looked at Ishida Takashi's mobile phone strangely and said, "Hey, that sling in the museum? Where did it go? Wasn't it still hanging around my neck yesterday?"

Hearing this, Takashi Ishida smiled sheepishly and said, "I gave it to a good friend's child. The child kept asking for it after seeing it."

sling!

Still hanging around the neck!

Aoki Song instantly thought of the strangulation mark on Shirai Minoru's neck. If it were a hanging rope for hanging a mobile phone, it seemed to be about the same thickness.

Thinking of this, Aoki Song looked at Yutaka Araki calmly and said, "Does your insect museum still make hanging ropes?"

"Well, yes, it is our cultural and creative product." Yutaka Araki said: "If you need it, Aoki Police Department, I can give you one."

Aoki Song responded without any politeness, "Thank you very much." It was perfect for comparing the strangulation marks.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the Gunma County Police Headquarters, and Aoki Song was ready to arrange for someone to make a comparison immediately.

Brother Cao personally brought hot tea to Aoki Song, "Ah, I didn't expect things to be so complicated. It seems that this ordinary case of a missing beetle might even be involved in a murder case!"
