In Conan, we build a criminal gang

Chapter 212 The Hidden Corpse

But no matter how unlucky it is, this matter still needs to be resolved. Qin Tian will not participate or make trouble. Anyway, Conan can handle it, so let him perform well in front of his mother-in-law.

At this time, Ji Yingli looked at Officer Yokomizo and responded: "Well, I returned to the room at around 11 o'clock and saw that she was not there. I thought she was picked up by her husband."

"Please wait a moment." Officer Yokomizo interrupted Ji Yingli and asked, "You mean you didn't find her in the room when you came back, right?"

Ji Yingli nodded and said, "Yes, because I threw the room card on the bed as soon as I returned to the room..."

Officer Yokomizo frowned, thought for a moment and then asked, "So, did you lock the door when you entered the room?"

Ji Yingli answered hesitantly, "Well...it seems to be unlocked. But what does it matter?"

Officer Yokomizo explained seriously: "If the door is not locked, anyone can enter the room. Also, if the murderer knew the victim would come here, it is possible that he ambushed here in advance. So we need to understand everyone's whereabouts and behavior clearly."

Maori Kogoro also echoed, "Yes, that's right. If you don't have a room card, there is no way to get in from the outside!"

"That's true, and this window is so small, and there is no balcony next to it, so it is absolutely impossible for someone to come in from outside. Then there is only one possibility, and that is the so-called closed room murder case." Officer Yokomizo analyzed seriously while stroking his chin.

"It has turned into an impossible crime." Xiaolan exclaimed.

"Or in other words, you actually had a heated argument with the victim after returning to the room, and then killed her subconsciously in anger, right?" Officer Yokomizo once again stared at Ji Yingli with a suspicious look.

"What? How could I do such a thing?" Ji Yingli responded innocently.

"Hehe, but just when you were washing off the blood that was accidentally splashed on your body during the crime in the shower room, Mr. Mori and others suddenly arrived." Yokomizo seemed to have explained the whole ins and outs of the case.

Ji Yingli was speechless about Officer Yokomizo. She couldn't understand why he had such a strange idea. So she decided to express her dissatisfaction and doubt in a more direct way. She said, "If that's the case, would I let them into the room?"

Officer Yokomizo was not shaken by Ji Yingli's question. Instead, he showed a smug smile and answered confidently: "This is where you cleverly use people's psychology! You deliberately let Detective Maori come in to turn this seemingly ordinary crime into an incredible case.

However, in any case, you may be hiding the murder weapon. So, I will arrange for a female police officer to enter this room and search it carefully later. "

Maori Kogoro couldn't help showing a helpless expression when he heard this. He knew that Ji Yingli would never do such a thing, but he didn't want to explain too much, so he had to tell the truth: "There is no need for this. I have already made her strip naked in the bathroom of this room and did a thorough inspection."

When Officer Yokomizo heard this, he was shocked and stammered, "Take...take off all the clothes?" He obviously did not expect such a situation to happen and was a little at a loss for a moment.

"Yes, she was just wrapped in a bath towel." Kogoro Mouri said with a relaxed look.

"Ah! That's not the question! Isn't this sexual harassment?" Yokomizo widened his eyes and looked at Kogoro Mouri in surprise, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"It's none of your business!" Maori Kogoro looked indifferent, and even said seriously: "We are husband and wife."

"Although we are separated..." Ji Yingli on the side suddenly interrupted, but her tone sounded somewhat helpless and frustrated.

Hearing this, Yokomizo was surprised again. He originally thought that these two people were just an ordinary man and woman, and never thought that they were actually husband and wife.

Xiaolan seemed to see Yokomizo's confusion and quickly explained to him: "Hi is my mother's original surname. She only used this surname when she worked as a lawyer."

"Oh, so you are Mr. Maori's wife." Yokomizo suddenly became enthusiastic, with a bright smile on his face, and said in a light tone: "Finally, I meet you."

Ji Yingli was slightly startled after hearing this, with a hint of surprise on his face, and asked doubtfully: "Finally?"

"No, because every time Mr. Maori appears, there is always a beautiful woman by his side, and I often mistakenly think that beautiful woman is his wife." Yokomizo scratched his head and explained sincerely.

Hearing this, Ji Yingli subconsciously looked at Maori Kogoro, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

At this time, Maori Kogoro was already burning with anger. He widened his eyes and shouted at Yokomizo: "Idiot! Don't talk nonsense!"

However, Yokomizo didn't take it seriously and continued, "But if you do that, you will become a witness and an investigated person with an intimate relationship, and your testimony cannot be used as a reference for the investigation."

When Qin Tian looked at Yokogawa, for some reason he thought of the Yamamura police officer in Gunma Prefecture.

Officer Yamamura is a very talkative person. Once he starts talking, he can't stop. He always likes to talk about various cases and detective stories, which makes people sigh at his good eloquence. The same is true for Officer Yokomizo in front of him. He is also good at chattering and expressing his opinions and views.

At this moment, Conan had quietly crawled under the bed and stuck his head out.

"Hey, this is so strange, why is there blood here?" Conan shouted in surprise.

Yokomizo was stunned and quickly looked in the direction Conan pointed.

"Look, at the bottom of the bed sheet." Conan pointed to the carpet and continued, "But why is there no blood on the carpet?"

Xiaolan looked at the place Conan pointed out, observed it carefully and put forward her own guess: "Could it be that the bed was dragged, which is why there are bloodstains, in order to hide the body?"

"Yes, move the bed to cover the body, and the criminal can lie down on the side to hide. While I am taking a shower, put the bed back to its original position to expose the body, and then secretly leave the room." Ji Yingli thought seriously about what Xiaolan had just said and felt that this possibility did exist.

After hearing their reasoning, Yokomizo asked a question: "But in this case, the criminal is really lucky. If you had chosen to take a bath instead of a shower, wouldn't this plan have failed?"

Maori Kogoro said with disdain: "Yes, if she goes to sleep directly with drooling as usual when she returns to her room, then this plan will be completely ruined."

Hearing this, Ji Yingli looked at him with some displeasure and retorted: "Drooling? That's your fault!"

Conan suddenly spoke at this time, with a hint of surprise in his tone: "It's not just saliva that's flowing, is it Coke?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at where Conan was pointing.

"Ah?" Kogoro Mori exclaimed in confusion.

Conan pointed to the carpet and explained, "Look, there are stains on the carpet in front of the refrigerator that look like Coke." Then he looked up and pointed to the can of Coke on top of the refrigerator, adding, "And there's still a lot of Coke in it."
