My neighbor's name is Conan

Aoki Matsu has no intention of belittling the profession of "courier".

But although it sounds a bit outrageous that express delivery turns into burglary, it is actually very consistent with human nature.

So if it were Aoki Matsu, given that he had a cold and insufficient strength, he would definitely choose to put the items to be transported at the door and close the door tightly.

You have a better chance of winning by betting on your neighbor's conscience and character than by betting on the conscience and character of a courier who has no idea who the person coming will be.

But this person let all three couriers into the house and put the money directly on the table, in three portions.

Not to mention burglary or something like that, it's not impossible for someone to just steal the money on the table.

Is the other party really kind, or does he have other intentions?

strange!

This isn't the only strange place.

Gao Mushi was very surprised and said: "Why does he keep asking people to come to his house..."

"Oh right!" Miwako Sato suddenly remembered something. "There must be two other people besides Chiba monitoring the door of the apartment."

Chiba Kazunobu was stunned when he heard this, then responded, "Yes, the home delivery and motorcycle delivery were ordered by two other colleagues, and the pizza delivery guy who came out last was me."

Conan was shocked when he heard this, not caring about the Aoki Matsuya in front of him, and asked hurriedly: "So there is no entrance to the criminal surveillance apartment now?"

"Ah!" Chiba Kazunobu was shocked when he heard this and his face changed drastically.

Aoki Matsu held Conan's head at this time and said, "Don't worry, after I learned the news, I asked Aihara to guard the entrance of the apartment."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

After Conan slapped away Aoki Matsu's big hand that was pressing on his head, he turned around and looked at Aoki Matsu.

[This really makes me feel at ease, Aoki-san~]

As for other ideas...

Conan has been rescued by Aoki Matsu once or twice, and he has gotten used to it by now.

Habits are a terrible thing.

Qing Musong looked at the sad-faced courier and asked, "Excuse me, did you close the door when you left that room?"

“No!” The sad-faced courier shook his head. “I didn’t close the door when I went in, and when I came out I subconsciously did the same thing as when I went in, and just closed the door.”

Aoki Matsu's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he instructed the people next to him, "Takagi, Chiba, you stay here and keep an eye on the three of them. Sato and I will go over and take a look."

"Yes!" Chiba Kazunobu responded.

Upon hearing this, Gao Mushi said subconsciously: "The other party should have closed the door now!"

"That's not necessarily true." said Aoki Matsu.

If the other person really has a cold and falls asleep, he or she may not be able to wake up in time and close the door.

However, the three couriers nearby were unhappy when they heard this.

The tall courier said quickly: "I'm very busy at work. We are not murderers or suspects. Can you let us leave first?"

"Yes, I'm in a hurry to go to another one." said the female courier.

"I also have another order to deliver." said the sad-faced courier.

"Every citizen has the obligation to cooperate with criminal investigations. You cannot leave for the time being." Qing Musong said with a straight face. After a pause, he said, "I will reimburse you for the lost wages. If your boss fires you because of this, I will personally go to your boss to talk and help you find a new job."

It is indeed not easy to be a worker, especially for those who have elderly parents and young children to support.

Qing Musong was also a worker in the past, so he could sympathize with the other party.

But Aoki Matsu and Takagi Wataru had the same idea. It was very strange that the other party kept asking the courier to come to the door.

Therefore, we cannot let these three people leave without figuring out what the other party means.

As a result, the work of three people was delayed, resulting in their boss deducting wages or even firing them. Qingmu Song took the responsibility himself. Isn't that quite nice?

In fact, under normal circumstances, as long as you explain that the situation is to cooperate with the police, most people will be understanding. As for those who will not be understanding, Aoki Matsu can personally go to their home and have a good "talk" with them.

If it really doesn't work, it's not difficult to ask Suzuki Sonoko for help, or find the Forest Company and arrange a new job for the fired courier.

After all, other positions may require skills and diplomas, but being a doorman does not.

As expected, after Qing Musong said this, the three of them were speechless. They had to agree even if they didn't want to. Otherwise, they would be arrested on the spot by the police for refusing to cooperate. The police have the right to force relevant personnel to cooperate 24 hours a day.

"Brother Aoki is so handsome!" Suzuki Sonoko whispered to Mouri Ran with stars in her eyes.

At this moment, Aoki Matsu is indeed handsome.

Mao Lilan smiled as well.

Without further ado, Matsu Aoki and Miwako Sato immediately entered the apartment and went to the suspect's room.

I didn't expect the door was actually not closed.

Aoki Matsu gave Sato Miwako a look, and only after seeing that she understood and nodded did he push open the door.

After entering the room, the first thing I saw was a pizza box on the round table, next to it were two envelopes and a receipt.

After looking around, there was no sound.

Qing Musong walked over, opened the pizza box and took a look. Not a single piece of the pizza was missing, which meant that the other party did not get up to eat.

Then the two men carefully began to search the house. After a few steps, they found a man lying on the bedroom floor with a hemp rope tied around his neck and an overturned chair next to him.

Seeing this, Aoki Matsu rushed forward to check and found that the man was still breathing. He immediately said to Sato Miwako: "Sato, call an ambulance quickly."

"Yes!" replied Miwako Sato.

After calling the ambulance, Sato Miwako came in again and said with some sudden enlightenment: "I see, putting on a coat and a hat meant that he was ready to escape at any time. Later, he found that he could not escape, so he decided to commit suicide. However, the rope fell off before he died, and he fell to the ground and fainted."

Hearing this, Aoki Matsu looked at Sato Miwako in disbelief and asked, "Sato, are you still sleepy today? What nonsense are you talking about? How could this person commit suicide? Not to mention that there are almost no rope marks on his neck, just look at this hat, who the hell would wear a hat if they hanged themselves!"

Was Miwako Sato's intelligence forcibly lowered?

Such outrageous reasoning can be made.

Moreover, as a criminal, he did not even check why the victim fainted on the ground, but hastily concluded that it was a suicide. This is really irresponsible.

I've never seen Sato Miwako so stupid before!

So Aoki Matsu couldn't help but get angry. Not only was Sato Miwako's intelligence low, but she had even forgotten the basic qualities of being a criminal.

Seeing Sato Miwako's behavior, Aoki Matsu became more alert. Could it be that Conan's intelligence-reducing light was showing its power?

Then he had to be careful today, so as not to ruin his reputation and his own image.

Upon hearing this, Miwako Sato seemed to have her mind returned to normal for a while. She quickly squatted beside the unconscious man and took a look. There were indeed no marks of strangulation on his neck. When she took off the hat on his head, she saw bloodstains on his head.

"What, what's going on?" Sato Miwako was shocked.

Aoki Matsu rolled his eyes when he heard this, and he had already determined in his heart that Sato Miwako was affected by Conan's aura of reduced intelligence today, and he could no longer rely on her.

"Don't you understand? I guess this person should be one of the three couriers. The hammer man keeps asking the couriers to come to his house, just to make a courier he can beat serve as his scapegoat." Qing Musong said unhappily.

At worst, one of the three couriers attacked the other party, but this possibility is very small, unless he suddenly discovered that the other party was his enemy.

After that, Qing Musong picked up the phone and called Qianye, "Qianye, bring all three of them up. Also, tell Gao Mu quietly to contact the supervisors of the three companies to come over and identify them."

"Yes!" Chiba Kazunobu responded immediately. After hanging up the phone and whispering Aoki Matsu's instructions to Takagi Shigeru, he led the three people upstairs.

After hanging up the phone, Aoki Matsu called Inspector Megure to explain the latest situation and asked him to send more people over.

Only a few people were sent for surveillance before, and they were completely unable to cope with the current situation.

After a while, Chiba Heshin came up with three people. Aoki Song looked at the tall courier and the female courier with a cold face and asked, "We only found the receipt for the pizza in the house. You said you put the receipt on the table, but we didn't find it. Where is your receipt?"

It’s a courier, there can’t be no receipt!

The tall courier's face changed when he heard this and he quickly said, "Impossible, I clearly left a receipt and put it on the table. Did it fall somewhere?"

The female courier next to her also said: "I also left the receipt on the table."

Hearing this, Qing Musong looked at the sad-faced courier and asked, "Excuse me, when you entered the room to put the pizza box away, did you see the two receipts on the table?"

The sad-faced courier thought for a moment and shook his head. "No, there were only three envelopes on the table when I came in. Two were empty, and one contained exactly the amount of money for the pizza. I took the envelope and left the pizza and receipt on the table."

After hearing the sad-faced courier's words, Aoki Matsu narrowed his eyes.

Why did the first two receipts disappear?

Is the receipt important information?

So why didn’t the receipt for that last pizza disappear?

To deal with the first two receipts, there are only two possibilities considering the order in which the three people left the room.

It was done by the second female courier who entered the room, and by the third courier with a sad face who entered the room.

It is possible that the sad-faced courier who delivered the pizza was up to something or lied.

But it is also possible that the house was already settled before the pizza deliveryman came to deliver the pizza, so no one picked up the pizza receipt.

In addition, Qing Musong's original analysis of this place was that the murderer might not be the male resident living here, but the male resident's girlfriend after he was dumped.

Thinking about it this way, the female courier is more likely to be a suspect.

However, this is based on the assumption that the two receipts are not in the room. If they are there, but are just not on the table by accident, the situation will be different.

Until support from the Metropolitan Police Department arrives and the entire house and corridor are thoroughly searched, this conclusion cannot be drawn for the time being.

Therefore, the tall courier may not be the murderer, because his body shape makes him most likely to commit the crime.

Aoki Matsu was responsible for the consequences of the three people skipping work, so he confidently asked the three people to wait on the side until they finished searching the scene.

At the same time, they were also waiting for the boss of the three people to come and recognize them.

Support from the Metropolitan Police Department and the Koban arrived first.

Aoki Matsu unceremoniously ordered people to search the room.

While waiting for the results of the search, Takagi Wataru walked in with three people. "Inspector Aoki, I have asked the people you asked me to find to come over."

"Thank you for your hard work." Qing Musong turned around and said, then looked at the three people, "Excuse me, please come over and confirm their identities."

Qing Musong was smart here and didn't let them recognize each other in front of each other, but recognized them through the window.

Soon the tall courier and the sad-faced courier were recognized, but the boss of the company that the female courier was wearing did not recognize her. "Officer, I don't know her, and our company doesn't have female couriers. Female employees only do clerical work."

Being a courier is also a physical job. Most of the people who do this are men. Of course, there are women too but they are very few. After all, it is not an easy job. Not only is it tiring, but the salary is not much higher.

"What about this person?" Qing Musong took out his mobile phone and handed the front photo of the injured person that he had just taken to the other party.

"It's Ishino." The other party recognized him at a glance. "He is an employee of our company. I recruited him into the company."

When Qing Musong heard this, he immediately understood what was going on. Just as he had deduced, the female courier was the murderer.

The two missing receipts, no, maybe there was only one, because she knocked the other party unconscious before the second one was issued. That's why she took the first receipt away because she was worried that someone would find out.

What else is there to say about this case? Of course, just arrest the person in question!

After arresting the other party, Aoki Matsu immediately asked Sato Miwako to search the female murderer, and sure enough, a courier receipt was found in the pocket of her clothes.

"Miss, you are the murderer who killed people with a hammer." Qing Musong looked at her coldly and said, "I have asked the people from this courier company to come and admit that they don't have any female couriers in their company. The one who was attacked and fell to the ground is an employee of their company."

This is the evidence!

When the other party heard what Qing Musong said, she stopped protesting her injustice. Her biggest disguise had been seen through.

As for her motive for the crime, it was just as Aoki Matsu had deduced before, that is, her boyfriend dumped her and started dating a woman with long hair, so she became angry with all women with long hair.

But there was one thing that Aoki Matsu thought differently. This apartment was really where she lived, and the parents had remembered it wrongly. So she didn't deliberately expose her residence, but it was an accident. She never thought that the old drunkard would dare to follow her. This was completely an accident.

She just didn't expect the police to come so quickly and surround the apartment directly. But at this time, she saw that the newspapers were all about the hammer man, and she suddenly had an idea to put the blame on the ex-boyfriend who abandoned her.

She then placed all the feminine items in the house in boxes and backpacks, and sent them away via courier, disguising herself as if the person living in the house was a man. She also used the courier to escape.

But she didn't expect that the police were smarter and more powerful than she thought.
