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

"The deceased was named Chuan Jun Hangping, 37 years old, and the primary person in charge of the construction site. He was struck in the face and then tumbled down the stairs, landing on the ground floor. He suffered severe contusions to his neck and waist."

However, the fatal wound was the wound on the face. It was unknown how much strength the murderer used, but he actually smashed a big hole in the victim's face and killed him with one blow.

Such means are cruel and brutal, and shocking.

Megure Jusan squatted on the ground, listening to Takagi Wataru's words, staring at the corpse on the ground, frowning and thinking.

Miwako Sato looked at Yoko Nakata and said, "Ms. Nakata is the first eyewitness to this case, right? What was your situation at the scene?"

Nakata Yoko clasped her hands together in front of her chest, her face full of memories. "Yes, it's like this. The food we ordered has arrived, and I was going to ask Mr. Funashi to come with us, but he suddenly said he had other things to do and asked me to go first. Unexpectedly, when I came back to pick up the food and called him, I saw Mr. Funashi lying on the ground with his face covered in blood..."

Megure Jusan listened to her words, stood up straight and continued to ask: "Excuse me, does your testimony have any corroboration from others?"

Nakata Yoko shook her head. "Everyone had already dispersed and was preparing to go to the lounge next door. Mr. Funajitsu and I were the only ones walking at the back."

"But..." Nakata Yoko looked at Hori Yasumasa who was standing beside her. "After I finished talking to Mr. Funashiro, I caught up with Mr. Hori. The time between us was no more than half a minute."

A few words were not enough time for Yoko Nakata to do anything.

Megure Jusan looked at Hori Yasumasa, who nodded. "Indeed, I even told Yoko to take the food delivery person to the lounge area and set up a slightly larger dining table so that everyone can eat together there."

Nakata Yoko added: "After that, I came back with the delivery guy. He went to set up the food while I called Mr. Funajitsu."

The time intervals between these events were very short, and Nakata Yoko's words were corroborated by Hori Yasumasa and the delivery boy, so her suspicion was greatly reduced.

So Megure Jusan looked at Hori Yasumasa again and asked, "May I ask what Mr. Hori has been doing during this period?"

Hori Yasushi recalled, then replied: "I went to the rest area with several supervisors, and then I received a business call. I was on the phone until Yoko found the body. You can check my mobile phone communication records for this."

As usual, Takagi Shigeru walked up to Kogoro Mori and Shirakawa Akane.

"Excuse me, where were Mr. Maori and Mr. Shirakawa before?"

Maori Kogoro: "Shirakawa-kun and I went to the restroom together. It's in the corner on the left over there. We couldn't see what was happening over here from that position. We hurried over after hearing Ms. Nakata's screams."

Takagi Wataru: "Have you always been together?"

Shirakawa Qiu: "Yes."

Takagi Shigeru recorded these situations in his notebook, and then asked several other supervisors about the situation.

This construction site has been in a state of suspension. Even though some workers are still staying here, no one is free to come to this area, so they are the only ones who have come to the site today.

However, to be cautious, the police went to the workers' rest area to confirm the situation to prevent any omissions in the investigation of the case.

Miwako Sato took Takagi Wataru and climbed up the unfinished building.

Takagi Wataru glanced at the empty surroundings, swallowed his saliva, and whispered a reminder: "Officer Sato, uh, be careful."

Sato Miwako wasn't afraid at all: "I'm fine, let's go find the first crime scene."

Takagi Wataru wiped the sweat off his face: "Hmm..."

Soon, they discovered the situation.

"There's blood here."

Takagi Wataru climbed on the wall pillar and pointed in a direction.

There, there were still mottled bloodstains on the ground.

Sato Miwako stretched her head to look, her voice sinking slightly: "It seems this is the first crime scene."

She lowered her head and vaguely saw a pool of blood downstairs on the outside of the building.

She stretched out her hand and shouted to the people downstairs, "There's a pool of blood over there. Please maintain the scene."

The floor they are currently on is not very high, probably around the third floor. Looking down from here, they can clearly see the red bloodstains below.

Just looking at the large area of ​​blood below and the small amount of blood splashed on the ground in front of him, Gao Mushi scratched his head in confusion: "This is strange, shouldn't the murderer be standing here? Why didn't the large amount of blood splash onto the murderer, but instead splashed all outside..."

Judging from the direction the deceased fell, the murderer should be standing on the outside and the deceased was standing on the inside, so when the murderer hit the deceased's head hard, the deceased fell backwards, and finally missed the stairs, falling down the stairs without any protective railings, and fell directly to the first floor.

But judging from the bloodstains at the scene, this situation seems somewhat unreasonable.

The positions of both sides are somewhat of a mystery.

Miwako Sato tilted her head and analyzed calmly, "The murderer must have used some trick to avoid the blood splatter. Otherwise, our blood test just now should have been able to identify the real murderer."

This is strange. The fact that the victim's head was smashed like that shows that the two people were standing very close to each other and the murderer used all his strength. But how could he not get any bloodstains when they were facing each other like this?

Conan downstairs also had the same doubt. He looked up at Sato Miwako and others downstairs, then looked down at the large area of ​​bloodstains splattered on the ground and frowned slightly.

Maori Kogoro was already analyzing the situation nearby: "Based on the facial injuries on the deceased, the murderer is most likely a man, and he is extremely strong, able to directly smash a big hole in the deceased's head--"

He glanced at the shape of the wound and said, "It should be a brick picked up from the construction site. Judging from this, the murderer is likely a worker at the construction site."

The murderer must be a laborer who has been doing hard labor for many years, as he is familiar with the environment and strong enough to smash a person's face with a brick like this.

Megure Jusan nodded. "Yes, I had the same idea. But I don't quite understand why the deceased didn't resist at all when the murderer raised a brick and hit him face to face..."

After all, analyzing the body, the deceased did not launch a strong counterattack before his death.

In other words, the murderer killed the deceased with one blow before the deceased could react.

This is incredible!

Anyone who sees a murderer approaching him with a brick would become more alert, right?

Megure Jusan looked around again and said with regret: "And we haven't found the murder weapon so far."

A blood-stained brick, where could the murderer hide?
