Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

"The deceased was named Ushihara Hisao, 34 years old, and was an ordinary construction worker."

The young police officer relayed the collected information to Shiratori Jinzaburo.

Shiratori Renzaburo looked at the forensic doctor and asked, "How is the preliminary examination of the body?"

The medical examiner nodded at him, "At this point, it seems to match the characteristics of a fall, but a further autopsy is needed for a detailed evaluation."

Shiratori Renzaburo: "Okay."

Several police officers from the forensic department stood up, put the body into a body bag, and prepared to take it back for further examination.

Shiratori Renzaburo turned around and looked at Funajitsu Kohei: "Mr. Funajitsu, can you explain to me now why the body was moved?"

Chuan Junhangping explained with a wry smile, "Officer Bai Niao, as you know, Linlu Construction attaches great importance to the opportunity to cooperate with your Bai Niao Group, so we don't want to see anything like this."

"And we weren't planning on doing anything to the body just now. We just wanted to move it, at least to avoid a horrible death... As for the subsequent compensation, don't worry, we won't be perfunctory and will ensure the family of the deceased is satisfied."

Shiratori Renzaburo listened to his sophistry, glanced at him, and sneered in his heart.

As expected of an old fox.

"You don't need to explain this to me. You can explain it to the judge yourselves." Shiratori Renzaburo said calmly, "How did he fall?"

"We're not too sure about that." Chuan Junhangping shook his head. "It really has nothing to do with us. He must have accidentally stepped on air and fell."

"Oh?" Shiratori Renzaburo raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Upstairs, Jinpei Matsuda took Conan and the children to the edge of the unfinished building and looked out carefully.

"How is it? Is it the location you just saw?"

Matsuda Jinpei asked.

Yoshida Ayumi held up her head, a little confused: "Eh...it doesn't seem to be the case."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya also shook his head: "This height doesn't seem right."

Jinpei Matsuda looked at Conan.

Conan also shook his head: "Not this level either."

Jinpei Matsuda took a deep breath, squatted down, and tried to remain gentle so as not to scare the children with his fierce appearance.

"Children, are you sure these two floors are not where the deceased fell?"

"Yes!"

Genta Kojima answered very confidently and then pointed in a direction.

"We were originally playing there, so we should be able to see the eel rice commercial from here!"

Matsuda Jinpei looked in the direction that Kojima Genta pointed, and sure enough, he found that there was a floor in the building opposite with various billboards, and the eel rice advertisement that Kojima Genta mentioned seemed to be even deeper inside.

Jinpei Matsuda narrowed his eyes.

Conan also explained at the right time: "We were originally talking about the eel rice poster, and when we turned around, we happened to witness the man falling from the side of the building."

In other words, from the children's perspective, they could only see the moment when a black shadow fell out of the building, but could not see the scene where the deceased fell.

Because the outside of the building was still covered with construction scaffolding, the children could not tell which floor had fallen.

Jinpei Matsuda stood at the edge of the building, thought for a moment, and then jumped onto the scaffolding next to it.

He raised his head and carefully examined the marks on the scaffolding. Then he looked at the children and said, "All of you step back a little. Don't come any closer. I'll climb up and take a look."

If it is neither of these two floors, then it can only be somewhere in the middle of the two floors.

Jinpei Matsuda planned to climb up and take a look.

Conan retreated with the children, and looked at Matsuda Jinpei climbing up without any safety measures, his eyes twitching slightly: Hey, hey, won’t this lead the children astray?

Bai Chuanqiu, who was watching silently from downstairs, held his forehead with his hands and said, "He's really something."

That’s a building more than ten stories high!

Shiratori Jinzaburo hadn't noticed it at first, but when he looked up inadvertently, he found that Matsuda Jinpei had climbed out of the building like a monkey and jumped onto the scaffolding on the outside which was made up of only a few steel pipes.

Shiratori Jinzaburo: "...This guy..."

It always makes people's blood pressure soar.

At this moment, the skilled and courageous Matsuda Jinpei didn't know what others were thinking. He climbed to a position in the middle of the floor in one breath, and then looked around for traces.

Soon, he found a broken safety rope.

Jinpei Matsuda's eyes fixed, and he slowly moved over, holding on to the support beside him.

He reached out, leaned forward a little, and hooked the safety line over his hand.

The lock buckle had slight rust and was very stiff to open and close. Matsuda Jinpei opened it and observed it carefully, and found that there were obvious signs of breakage at the buckle position, but the entire rope was still intact.

Judging from the fracture marks, it is very likely an accident.

Jinpei Matsuda looked around and found no useful clues, so he prepared to return the same way.

While climbing down the scaffolding, Jinpei Matsuda inadvertently looked up at the other side of the building and suddenly stopped.

He stared in one direction, staring blankly at the facilities over there, his eyes blank.

"Officer Matsuda?" Conan called his name from below.

It was strange, why did Officer Matsuda suddenly become dazed? Could he have found some useful clue?

Matsuda Jinpei withdrew his thoughts, glanced down at Conan below, and shouted: "Back off, back off, your position is too dangerous, go stand in a safe area."

Little brat, he ran to the edge of the building again.

As he spoke, Jinpei Matsuda climbed down nimbly and stood inside the building.

five minutes later--

Shiratori Jinzaburou glared at Matsuda Jinpei with displeasure.

Matsuda Jinpei spread his hands and said, "I only climbed up after I confirmed my safety."

Shiratori Renzaburo: “…Hehe.”

Go back and make this guy write a letter of apology.

Matsuda Jinpei, unaware that he'd already received a gift package of self-apology letters, held up the safety rope and glared at Funajitsu Kohei with a stern gaze, "Excuse me, how often do you conduct safety inspections here?"

Chuan Jun Hangping: "This, this is naturally in accordance with the law..."

Matsuda Jinpei raised an eyebrow. "That's strange. How come your safety buckles rusted so quickly? And they're still in use?"

Shiratori Renzaburo also took it and took a look, frowning slightly.

Chuan Jun Hangping: "This, this is of course repaired and replaced at any time. We don't know why he uses this-"

Matsuda Jinpei interrupted him directly: "I checked when I went downstairs, and four out of the ten safety buckles were substandard. They were either rusty or the locks were rough and stuck. The safety hazard you have is even greater than I imagined!"

Chuan Junhangping forced a smile: "We..."

"Okay, there's no need to explain to us. There will naturally be more professional people to identify this matter." Matsuda Jinpei waved his hand and interrupted him again.

I'm too lazy to say another word to him.

Shiratori Renzaburo also said directly: "All work at the construction site should be stopped for now and wait for the safety inspector to arrive."

After a pause, he looked straight at Chuan Jun Hangping and said calmly, "I'll have the White Bird Group send a new quality inspector. You'd better pray that the construction site is not as dangerous as we see now."

Chuan Junhangping's face turned pale and his body couldn't help shaking.
