My neighbor's name is Conan

"Origami?" Aoki Matsu raised his eyebrows.

"I also folded five paper cranes!" Ayumi said, stretching out her right hand.

Sayuri also agreed: "And he said it was to kill time."

"However, this matter must be kept secret from outside, otherwise you will be cursed and killed!" Mitsuhiko said in a low voice with a miserable expression.

"Killed by a curse?" Maruta Ayumi was stunned, turned to look at Satan Onitsuka and asked, "What curse killed him?"

Satan Onizuka explained quietly: "Of course I have to say this to the fans. If everyone knew that the devil's hobby is origami, it would ruin his image."

"I see." Maruta Ayumi suddenly understood.

It’s just that the celebrity’s personality can’t go down that way.

Aoki Matsu looked at Satan Onitsuka speechlessly and asked, "So you were alone in the lounge before these kids came?"

Satan Onizuka also turned to look at Aoki Matsu and replied, "Yeah, I ate the food delivered and after taking a nap, I've been folding paper cranes."

After hearing what Satan Onitsuka said, Aoki Matsu raised his eyebrows and grasped the message in the other party's words. "In other words, you came to this TV station much earlier than the scheduled time?"

In other words, the other party had enough time to commit the crime.

"Yeah." Satan Onizuka nodded. "I was in the lounge before 11 o'clock, and then I asked my agent to order food for me, and also went to buy some things."

Mr. Inamori, Satan Onitsuka's manager, nodded quickly and said, "Yes, when I came back, I saw these kids trying to enter Mr. Satan's lounge. I wanted to stop them because Mr. Satan said not to disturb him before the recording at two o'clock."

"I see. That means that no one can prove that you were not there around 1:00 p.m. when the victim was killed," Aoki Matsu concluded.

Satan Onitsuka crossed his arms over his chest and said with a clear conscience, "Yes, but it's impossible for me to do that. If I leave the lounge and wander around with this face, I will definitely attract attention. Otherwise, ask everyone in the TV station to see if anyone has seen me anywhere at the time of the incident."

Hearing this, Maruta Ayumi pointed at the face and said, "If you take off the makeup on your face first, walk around the TV station with your original face, commit the crime in the living room, and then go back to put on makeup. It's possible."

When Satan Onizuka heard this, the expression on his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Maruta Ayumi with an unhappy and angry expression.

The agent, Mr. Inamori, quickly said, “I think that’s impossible.”

"Why?" asked Aoki Matsu.

"Is it because it takes a long time to put makeup on this face?" Aihara Yoji said thoughtfully.

Satan Onitsuka directly denied it, "No, this makeup look only takes about 30 minutes before and after."

Seeing this, Mr. Inamori quickly interjected and pointed out the key point: "The key point is that there is no mirror in that lounge."

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned.

Qing Musong frowned "No mirror? What do you mean?"

Mr. Inamori explained, "Because there was a big star who hated mirrors here before, the TV station prepared two or three lounges without mirrors, and Mr. Satan happened to often use those lounges without mirrors."

Satan Onitsuka said smugly, "Because I hate mirrors, too. Especially big mirrors. Why don't you go and take a look at that lounge yourself? Humph."

"Of course I have to go and see it with my own eyes." Qing Musong looked at him and said with a smile.

Judging from Satan Onizuka's attitude, either he is innocent and not the murderer, or he is the murderer and is just pretending, thinking that the crime he committed is impeccable.

Considering that this is a routine case in science and the victim is the president.

Aoki Matsu is 90% sure that Satan Onizuka is the murderer!

Don’t ask why, the answer is science.

As for why it is not 100%, it is naturally because Aoki Matsu does not remember the case, and he also knows that the old thief Aoyama was rebellious for a period of time, and even the basic core of the heroine Mouri Ran's personality has been shaken. What else can't be opposed to Science?

However, 99% of cases involving Conan can be solved using scientific methods, so Aoki Matsu has now determined that Satan Onizuka is the most likely murderer.

And once Satan Onizuka is the murderer, then this case becomes a problem of proof!

The core of proof-taking cases is to find faults!

As long as we can catch the person who was not in the lounge at the time, or who accidentally left something on him that could only be found at a crime scene, the case can be solved.

Of course, in addition to science, Aoki Matsu has other reasons, that is - Satan Onizuka was too proactive.

If the boss was killed, what would be the first reaction of ordinary employees?

You should be shocked, confused, and then call the police.

What happened next?

In Aoki Matsu's opinion, he was either thinking about what to do with his job or wondering who the murderer might be.

This was not Satan Onizuka's reaction.

Of course, he was once a popular star, and he didn't care about material things like ordinary people, so he didn't have to think about work. He also knew that the victim, Urushihara Nori, had a bad personality and many enemies, so he was not shocked by Urushihara Nori's murder.

But there is no need to rush to say that you have a grudge against the victim!

This is completely an act of actively asking the police to suspect himself, and then producing evidence to clear himself and prove that he is not the murderer.

Maybe there are people in this world who are emotionally at a low point, or because of some things they have experienced, so when something bad happens, their first reaction is that others will think that I am the murderer, and I cannot let people think that I am the murderer, so I have to actively prove that I am not the murderer.

But the way Aoki Matsu looks at Satan Onizuka doesn't seem like that kind of person at all, because people like him have basically experienced darkness such as "violence" and "cold violence", which makes them insecure in their hearts.

When such people encounter such a major event, their eyes and even their bodies will subconsciously dodge when facing the interrogation of the "powerful" party.

But Satan Onitsuka didn’t have that. He was very confident from beginning to end.

When faced with this situation, ordinary people will subconsciously follow one principle in their hearts: selfishness.

This case is a matter between the victim and the murderer and has nothing to do with me. Why should I get involved?

I am not the murderer, and I don't want to be a scapegoat.

Therefore, in order to avoid being suspected of being a scapegoat by the police, they will subconsciously conceal some of the grievances between themselves and the victim. Even if the police know about this grievance through other channels, the subconscious reaction is to cry out for injustice.

Rather than a reaction like Satan Onizuka.

When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong; when a person is abnormal, there must be something wrong!

Then everyone came to Satan Onizuka's lounge.

After looking around, Aoki Matsu said, "It really looks like there are no mirrors on the four walls."

"Yeah." Maruta Ayumi just agreed with Aoki Matsu's words, but suddenly his eyes lit up when he saw something on the table and said, "Ahhh, Inspector! There's a mirror on the table!"

Upon hearing this, Aoki Matsu looked at Satan Onizuka and Mr. Inamori.

Satan Onitsuka still looked confident and didn't say anything, but Mr. Inamori quickly explained, "Ah, no, that mirror is a new mirror I just bought. I gave it to Mr. Satan when I entered the lounge with those kids."

Upon hearing this, Maruta Ayumi immediately said, "Then please tell me which store you bought it from so I can confirm it."

The most important thing that Maruta Ayumi learned from Aokimatsu was rigor and meticulousness.

Even if you think the other party cannot be lying, you still have to verify it, because some criminals are very likely to take advantage of this human nature.

Mr. Inamori was stunned when he heard what Maruta Ayumi said, and then responded, "Ah, okay."

Seeing that the two were so easy to talk to, Qing Musong said directly without any hesitation: "We also need to investigate this lounge and the personal belongings, as well as the related places and evidence. Is that ok?"

"No problem, go ahead." Satan Onizuka responded with the same attitude.

With the consent of Satan Onizuka, Aoki Matsu and others began to search the lounge.

"Inside the backpack, um, it seems like there are almost all the makeup supplies, except for..." said Yoji Aihara as he checked the luggage bag on the table.

Maruta Ayumi searched Satan Onizuka's body and said, "The inspector really doesn't have a mirror. He doesn't have one on him either."

"I understand." Qing Musong replied casually.

If it were so easy for the police to find the things, there would be no need for Conan to step in.

Apart from the mirror just now, there was definitely no other bright mirror in the lounge. This was within Aoki Matsu's expectations.

If he knew that nothing would come out of the search, why did Qing Musong still ask people to search?

Of course, I came here to find the real evidence!

Many things can be used as mirrors. Qingmu Song remembers that mirror-finished mobile phone/computer protective films were popular at some time in his previous life.

Just stick the protective film on your phone/computer, and the protective film will become a mirror.

Although Qing Musong has never used it himself, he has seen it.

There is still a gap between it and the mirror in the bathroom, but if you are not deliberately pursuing a clear view of the pores and acne on your face, and just want to get a rough idea of ​​the position of your nose and mouth, then that thing can indeed reflect them.

In addition to mirror protective films, there are many other things in life that can be like this.

Such as sunglasses, etc.

"Well, what is this? This is a dirty shirt and hood, and there are the words "Devil House" on the chest." Aihara Yoji asked while holding a piece of clothing.

Satan Onitsuka took a look at the clothes and replied with the same attitude: "Oh, I brought it specially to wear on the variety show recorded today. I often perform crosstalk with the band during the halftime, "I am a devil, I am here to bring misfortune to everyone" and similar performances with a similar feeling."

Upon hearing this, Aoki Matsu ordered, "Aihara, go check with the show's staff."

"Yes, Inspector!" replied Aihara Yoji.

Satan Onizuka continued, "By the way, I use those cosmetics to touch up my makeup during the show. If my makeup just comes off a little, I sometimes borrow a powder box from a female employee and it's done in two or three strokes. I don't sweat much, so I don't touch up my makeup often."

Conan suddenly interrupted at this time and said, "But the purple lipstick you are wearing now seems to be very easy to fall off. Look, Mr. Satan's ashtray and cigarette butts are also stained with purple, and the same color is also on the autograph paper you gave to Mitsuhiko."

Upon hearing this, Mitsuhiko quickly looked at the signature paper: "It's true, why?"

"Because at that time, Mr. Satan bit the pen with his mouth to open the pen cap and signed, and that was when the color of lipstick got on it. Then when he returned the pen to Mitsuhiko, Mitsuhiko's hand was also stained with the color. Because that hand had been holding the signature, it was stained with the color unknowingly." Conan said confidently.

Ayumi suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right."

At this time, Conan asked the key question: "Oh, but what's strange is that the chopsticks and spoons on the takeaway utensils that Mr. Satan ate were not stained purple. All the things that touched his mouth were not stained purple. Why?"

When Aoki Matsu heard this, he subconsciously looked at Conan.

What happened to Conan recently that made him feel proud, so does he feel like he's doing fine again?

"Yeah, it's really strange." Sayuri responded after taking a look.

Satan Onitsuka explained without panic: "Yes, because when I eat, I wipe off my lipstick with a napkin before eating. I don't like lipstick on the tableware when I eat. Anyway, if it's just lipstick, I can fix it quickly even without a mirror."

When Genta saw that Conan and the others were not reprimanded by Aoki Matsu for speaking, he looked at Satan Onizuka and asked a question he really wanted to ask: "Is the color around your eyes also lipstick at this time? It's also purple!"

Satan Onizuka explained patiently: "It's not drawn with lipstick, it's just the color of the same brand. This requires the use of a mirror. If someone can draw eyeliner without a mirror, just with the touch of his hands. That person is either a god or a devil, hahahahahahahaha..."

Ayumi smiled and asked, "You must like purple very much, Mr. Devil."

Satan Onitsuka said affirmatively: "Yes, this is the color I liked when I was flying solo, and only this brand has such a color. But today's performance is not live, so the gray on my face and the white on my cheeks are made of water-soluble foundation that is easy to buy..."

Before he could finish his words, Satan Onitsuka covered his eyes, looking very painful.

Seeing this, Qing Musong quickly asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Mr. Inamori stepped forward immediately upon seeing this, and then helped Satan Onitsuka explain: "Because Mr. Satan's eyes are very dry, it is very uncomfortable to wear contact lenses."

"Oh." Qing Musong raised his eyebrows.

Mr. Inamori took out two eye drops and said, "Here, I'll give you some eye drops."

Releasing his eyes, Satan Onizuka refused: "No, I'm fine."

Mr. Inamori said worriedly: "But now the eyes are very red."

Satan Onizuka suddenly got very angry and yelled at Mr. Inamori: "I told you it's okay, okay, just leave it alone! Really, there is no mirror in this room, my backpack, or on my body. How can I touch up my makeup?"
