Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

Chapter 553: Xinye 6chen sets out again~!

"Of course, there is another possibility that the murderer deliberately made the scene look like a robbery and murder of the president." Xingchen said lightly.

"I see. So that means the murderer..." Before Inspector Megure could finish his words, a woman and three men came out from the cordon, followed by a police officer.

The woman ran over and shouted, "Dad, Dad, Dad!"

Seeing this, Takagi Shigeru quickly stopped the woman and prevented her from entering the scene of the corpse.

But all four of them saw the scene in the elevator, and one of the men said in disbelief: "President..."

"Oh my God, why, why is it my dad." The woman cried with a sad look on her face.

"When we parted here just now, he was still alive and well." One of the men said sadly.

"So, you were the ones who saw President Tatsumi last." Officer Megure looked at them and asked.

"It was indeed us who said goodbye to the president when he took the elevator up just now." said another man in a dark brown suit.

"Not long after that, the eldest lady also arrived." said the sad man.

"The two of us have agreed here that after we give our congratulatory speeches, we'll go to the reception venue." said a tall and thin man.

Officer Megure asked, "Did anyone else take this elevator during this time?"

"No, no one." The tall and thin man denied.

"Then do you know the time?" Officer Megure continued to ask.

"Well..." While the tall and thin man was still thinking, Miss Tatsumi, who was crying with her face covered, turned around and said, "It's half past eight."

"I also heard the party firecrackers, and the hour hand pointed to eight, absolutely correct," Miss Tatsumi continued.

Xingchen looked at her carefully and saw that she didn't seem to be carrying anything like a watch.

But Takagi Shigeru had already asked for him.

"I just happened to see the numbers on Mr. Ohba's watch when he reached out to touch my earrings," Miss Tatsumi explained.

"He touched your earring?!" Officer Megure said in surprise.

"He also gave me a gift here, saying that this pearl necklace would be a perfect match with my earrings. Who knew..." Miss Tatsumi couldn't help but cover her face and cry when she said this.

"My lady," Ohba Satoru said comfortingly, placing his hands on her shoulders.

"Well, we have to convey this unfortunate news to the staff currently present," said the sad man.

Seeing this, Inspector Megure nodded and agreed.

The two men prepared to leave.

Ohba Satoru took care of Miss Tatsumi and said, "Come on, Miss. Let's go together."

Xingchen felt a little strange and asked Officer Gao Mu about the scene at that time, and then asked Miss Tatsumi directly: "Miss Tatsumi, why were you able to conclude that you saw the surface of the watch at that time?"

"What are you talking about? I saw it clearly." Miss Tatsumi turned her head away in dissatisfaction. Was she suspecting that she was lying?

"Ah, it must be that when you arrived here, you felt that it was too dark here, and something was a little off, right?" Ooba Satoru replied.

Ohba Satoru showed the watch on his left hand to Xingchen and the others, and then said: "However, I have painted some fluorescent paint on the hour hand of this watch. You can see the time clearly even in the dark."

"As for dimming the lights, it was the president's idea. He said it seemed like it was for some kind of performance."

"Really? Then you can't see the time if you touch it like this." Xingchen walked forward, stretched out his hand to look at it and said.

Ohba Satoru demonstrated, touching Miss Tatsumi's left ear with his left hand and said, "This is how you can tell the time. And you can tell by looking at her hairstyle. She always likes to show her left ear and the pearl on it."

"Then why do you use your left hand to touch your left ear? Wouldn't it be more convenient to use your right hand?" Xingchen narrowed his eyes. He had begun to doubt the man in front of him.

"Or, is it possible that you are holding something in your right hand?"

"..." Ohba Satoru's expression changed slightly, which made Xingchen even more suspicious of the man in front of him.

Ohba Satoru quickly retorted: "What do you mean? Are you doubting that I was holding a gun in my right hand at that time?"

"Pistol, I don't think I mentioned that." Xing Chen looked at the guilty look on the man's face and couldn't help but ask, "Did you really take it?"

"Officer, you can't say that casually." Ohba Satoru quickly protested his innocence.

"Oh, I'm not a police officer. My name is Niino Rokuchen, and I'm a detective." Xingchen looked at him seriously and said his name lightly.

His name may not be as bright as Kudo and others, but he is still a detective.

It can also pose a certain threat to some guilty and uneasy people.

After all, it is well known that in this world, detectives are much more threatening to murderers than police.

In addition to some famous policemen, the number of detectives is far greater than that of famous policemen.

Ohba Satoru's face turned even paler, and he couldn't help but clench his fists and widen his eyes.

"Why did you suspect Mr. Ohba? Since the three of them were here to send my father upstairs, he couldn't have committed the crime." Miss Tatsumi began to defend her lover, "Because later on, he was always inseparable from me."

"Really?" Xingchen asked normally, "Did he go anywhere else on the way?"

Except for the lack of evidence, he was already eighty percent certain that this person was the murderer.

"I went to the bathroom to put on the necklace he gave me, and put on some lipstick and touched up my makeup." Ms. Tatsumi thought for a while and said, "It took about 2 or 3 minutes, and he was still standing outside chatting with me during that time."

"It's like being inseparable."

Suddenly a patrolman ran over and said, "Officer, we found a pistol with a silencer and an empty magazine."

"Where did you find it?" asked Officer Megure.

"It's inside the garbage collection station of this building. In my opinion, the criminals must have thrown it into the garbage pipe while fleeing." The patrolman nodded in response.

"Excuse me, is there any garbage pipe in this building?" Officer Megure turned around and asked.

"Yes, they are near the restrooms." The three staff members nearby nodded in response, because they were the first to discover it so they couldn't leave.

"That is to say, you can also talk and hide your tracks at the same time." Xingchen looked at him and said.

Ohba Satoru pretended to be calm and said, "Mr. Detective, you seem to have already determined that I am the murderer. Then let me ask you, when the president took the elevator downstairs, how did I kill the president?"

"We have been together tonight." Ooba Satoru put his arm around Miss Tatsumi's shoulders and looked at each other, then continued, "If I really say that I killed the person, there should be a reaction to gunpowder on my cuffs."
