Chapter 16

The elevator went down to the first floor, and Xinyi immediately ran out of the elevator, and the elevator next to him was empty.

Because of the homicide, the police had already imposed martial law near the hotel, so there were not many people in the lobby on the first floor, and a man like Gin who was completely black should be easily seen at a glance.

Xinyi looked around, but didn't find Gin's figure, so he could only sigh in frustration.

Taking the elevator back to the tenth floor, Officer Takagi asked, "Kudou, why did you suddenly run down just now?"

"Oh, I saw the suspect in another case just now, so I just followed." Xinyi didn't want to say more, and found an excuse to prevaricate.

Officer Takagi expressed his understanding, and then entered the monitoring room with Shinichi, and asked the staff to export the surveillance video of the security stairs from the [-]th floor to the top floor tonight.

Xinyi watched casually, thinking about the scene just now, and couldn't concentrate on handling the case.

Gin took the elevator down from the tenth floor, so he met someone in a certain room on the tenth floor?Who did you meet?What is the content of the conversation?

Shinichi has been thinking about this problem so much that he didn't see it at all on the surveillance screen.

"Kudou, Kudo?" Officer Takagi shook his hand in front of Shinichi, wondering if Kudo was watching the surveillance video seriously or thinking about other things and didn't hear his voice.

Xinyi came to his senses and hummed: "Huh?"

"Kudou, from 58:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., there were only two people who went to the top floor during this period. One went out through the security door next to the smoking room at [-]:[-] p.m., and Kaori Sakagami of the Sakagami Group was the sister of the deceased; The other one went up from the security door next to the elevator hall at [-]:[-] p.m., and was also a member of the Sakagami Group, named Tomoyo Sakagami, who was the elder sister of the deceased." Officer Takagi had read the information of the Sakagami Group, and had a little impression of these two people.

"Officer Takagi, can I have a look at the confessions of the two?" Shinichi asked Officer Takagi to get the confession records, and then asked the hotel manager to call out the monitoring of the corridor and passenger elevator on the tenth floor, as well as all the rooms on the tenth floor, on the grounds of solving the case. Tonight's list of ordering customers.

In the surveillance video, Gin arrived at the hotel at 1001:45, went directly to room number [-], and then came out of the room at [-]:[-], and took the elevator down to the first floor. He was alone during the period, and no one was seen meeting him. .

The person who booked Room 1001 on the list provided by the manager of Mihua Hotel was a man named Takizawa Hideaki. After thinking about it, Shinichi took out his mobile phone and called the doctor.

"Shinichi?" Dr. Ali asked back in surprise when he received a call from Shinichi, not only because Shinichi called him with his boyish voice, but also because Hattori Heiji told him that Shinichi He might have been kidnapped by the black organization and taken to the United States, so he was very surprised to hear Shinichi's voice at this time.

"Doctor, I will explain the specific situation to you later, can you help me find someone now?" Shinichi told the doctor the name of Takizawa Hideaki, and in order to narrow the scope of the search, he told Dr. Ali about his suspicions, Narrow it down to the military.

Dr. A Li agreed, and immediately turned on the computer to search for the files.

At this time, Officer Takagi also brought in the statement, and Shinichi double-checked the statement. Kaori Sakagami and Tomoyo Sakagami had the same caliber. The two sent a text message, asking them to go to the top floor at ten o'clock, and he wanted to send them a surprise.It wasn't until ten past ten that the two of them waited for a long time for Tamura Sakagami, and then they came back together.

Before Kaori Sakagami and Tomoyo Sakagami went to the top floor, one was smoking in the smoking room, and the other was negotiating a deal with an important businessman of the group company.

Shinichi calmed down and re-reasoned what happened in the case.Sakagami Tamura went to rest in the VIP lounge without surveillance with four members of the Sakagami family at 08:30 in the evening. The four left the lounge at 45:[-] and no one entered it again.Sakaue Tamura fell from the building at ten o'clock in the evening, and his sister received a text message from him before ten o'clock in the evening, and went up to the top floor to attend the appointment. Later, Sakaue Tamura did not know that Sakaue Tamura fell to his death until he returned to the banquet hall.

This time, Shinichi carefully watched the surveillance video of the two before they went to the top floor. Kaori Sakagami kept her hands in her pockets while smoking in the smoking room. She took out her phone and looked at it at 48:[-]. Then he made an action similar to pressing down the phone before throwing away the cigarette and going up to the top floor.

Tomoyo Sakagami had been negotiating business with a middle-aged man before, and her secretary was always by her side. After reading the text message and talking with the middle-aged man for a while, she made a phone call at 48:[-] and went straight to the top floor.

For the time being, neither of them seem like suspects, so Shinichi decides to go back to the lounge to watch the scene again, he wants to know how the prisoner got in this room which is equivalent to a secret room.

Entering the elevator, Officer Takagi looked at the gradually closing elevator door and suddenly asked, "Kudo, can I ask you a question?"

"Huh?" Kudo hummed casually, and looked up to the top of the elevator. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he seemed to hear a dull voice from above his head just now.

"Kudou, have you dated a girlfriend?" Police Officer Takagi has been paying attention to this question since he met Shinichi tonight. He accidentally saw some traces, and he kept having questions in his heart, and now he finally asked.

Kudo's face turned red instantly, he unconsciously tightened the tie around his neck, and said awkwardly, "No, no."

Due to the episode of Police Officer Takagi, Shinichi's mind was confused and he stopped exploring the strange sound.

"Vodka, your rhythm... I thought you could play The Sound Of Silence." Vermouth was leaning in the black Porsche, with one hand on the car window, and joked lazily.

"Brother likes to listen to Croatian Rhapsody." Vodka kicked the killer's body to the other side. When he was fighting with the killer just now, there was a lot of movement, and he was almost spotted by the kid in the elevator.

"That nasty woman!" Chianti wanted to tear off the wireless communication headset angrily when she heard Vermouth's voice, and the result of Chianti's mood getting worse was that she shot a target in the scope of her sniper gun several times. bullets.

Korn pushed the hotel trolley into a certain room, stared at the killer's body that had been sifted into a sieve, and said flatly, "Chianti, calm down, the splashed blood is difficult to deal with."

Chianti snorted unhappily, put away his sniper rifle and fled the scene.

On this side, Shinichi and Police Officer Takagi returned to the VIP lounge. Shinichi looked around the lounge again, but found no other new clues, and then went to the next room to observe again, feeling that the layout of the VIP lounge is a little strange.

Xinyi went back to the VIP lounge to take another look, raised his hand and tapped on one of the walls, and asked the hotel manager suspiciously, "The structure of this room is a little different from other rooms?"

"Uh... this is a little secret of our hotel. There are many powerful and wealthy people in our hotel. Sometimes in order to avoid trouble, we need such a passage, so the rooms at this location on each floor are the same. I hope that Mr. Kudo and the police can keep it a secret for us.” The hotel manager took Shinichi and Officer Takagi around a corner and entered the locker room, where he took out a remote control from his pocket and pressed it. It even moved to the left, revealing an elevator door.

"There is also an elevator here? Can you go to the top floor? Manager Beiyuan, why didn't you tell me at the beginning?" Officer Takagi trotted to the door of the elevator. This is an important clue. If the prisoner can take the elevator down here, then You can avoid surveillance to complete the murder.

The hotel manager shook his head affirmatively and said: "This is impossible, because the elevator door on each floor requires a remote control to open, and the remote control on each floor can only go up to the top floor, down to the first floor and the floor where the remote control is located. In a specific room, the monitoring of this elevator is generally closed for the sake of customer privacy. In addition, there are only two remote controls on all floors, one is here, and the other is in the hands of the security supervisor. After the incident, I have contacted the security supervisor. He confirmed that the remote control on the [-]th floor is still in the security room."

"Prisoners can't come down, but victims can go up. Does Sakaue Tamura have a remote control?" Shinichi said, but he was thinking about another thing. Room 1001 is just below this lounge, which is If there is such a special passage in Room 1001, then Gin, who is also regarded as an "upper class", can take the elevator in Room 1001 to leave Mihua Hotel without taking the passenger elevator down.

Unless... Gin deliberately exposed his whereabouts in order to lure someone, and was deliberately targeted by people!

Shinichi remembered Vermouth's mission, Gin asked Vermouth to hold Rum back, and he couldn't let him show up to disrupt Gin's meeting with someone... The Gin in the elevator was disguised by Vermouth, Gin was not here at all, and he, Kudo Shinichi, was also like this As Gin's opponent, Rum may already know his existence, so his appearance will definitely make Rum believe that Gin is here!

"Mr. Sakagami has ordered room 8001 of the luxury suite on the eighth floor of our hotel for a long time, so he has the remote control of room 8001." The hotel manager tried to recall it, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Assuming that the deceased went up to the top floor earlier than the appointed time, then Kaori Sakagami who arrived at the top floor first is very likely to be the murderer, but how can a woman have the strength to push the stout deceased down the stairs? Could it be that the murderer is two sisters ? So other guests who have the remote control are also suspected? Eh, no, if the deceased did not commit suicide, what happened to the voice last words in the deceased’s mobile phone?” Officer Takagi was getting more and more confused by Shinichi , Who is the murderer?

Shinichi smiled confidently: "Officer Takagi, have you forgotten? The forensic expert identified that the deceased had drunk heavily during his lifetime. Tomoyo Sakagami's confession also included the sentence 'Most of Grandpa's inheritance was left to that guy Sakagami. Tomorrow the lawyer will I would come here to go through the formalities of handing over the inheritance, but I didn’t expect Sakagami to follow him because he missed his grandfather.” From this, it can be inferred that the deceased was drunk because of the inheritance tonight, so even a woman can easily push the deceased downstairs. "

"Then what about the voicemail?" Officer Takagi asked immediately, how did this fake?

"Kaori Sakagami is studying at Tokyo & Osaka Animation Academy, and her grades are very good." Shinichi handed Kaori Sakagami's statement to Police Officer Takagi, which stated Kaori Sakagami's school status.

Officer Takagi asked back in disbelief: "So Kaori Sakagami will imitate Tamura Sakagami's voice?"

Shinichi said nothing, and the three of them took the elevator to the top floor. The elevator door on the top floor was in a firefighting room. Open the door of the firefighting room to the top floor. It was really hidden.

Several police officers on the top floor were also surprised to see Officer Takagi appearing suddenly. One of the officers stepped forward and said to Officer Takagi: "Officer Takagi, the test results are back, and there are no fingerprints on the railing."

"Kudo?" Takagi turned his head to look at Shinichi, and it was Kudo who asked to investigate the fingerprints.

"I know who the murderer is!" Xinyi held his chin with one hand, what was missing now was evidence.

"Ah!" Officer Takagi was dumbfounded, didn't he find anything?

Ten minutes later, Officer Takagi invited the Sakagami family and Officer Megure to the top floor according to Shinichi's instructions.

Before reasoning, Shinichi asked the members of the Sakagami family to take out their mobile phones and belongings. He specially observed Sakagami Kaori and Sakagami Tomoyo. The expressions on their faces were very calm. It looks a little different.

Shinichi was stunned for a moment, this woman... He first explained his reasoning before, and Sakagami Tamura's parents burst into tears after hearing this, as if they were truly heartbroken for their son's death.

Tomoyo Sakagami was as calm as an outsider, Kaori Sakagami showed a slight pained expression on his face.

"Brother Kudo, according to your reasoning, who is the real murderer?" Officer Megure has always trusted Kudo Shinichi's ability to handle cases, and he has no doubts at the moment.

"The deceased left a voice last message before his death. The recording time was [-]:[-] p.m., which happened to be when the four of you were in the lounge with the deceased. The murderer exchanged his mobile phone with the deceased's mobile phone. A certain room in the monitored lounge completed the voice recording, and then in order to prevent the deceased from discovering the voice and sending text messages to ask the deceased to go to the top floor at night, he took the deceased’s mobile phone with him and did not exchange it back. If the deceased found out before the crime The mobile phone is not his own, and the murderer can argue that he took it by mistake."

Everyone understood, and all looked at Kaori Sakagami.

"The murderer is her - Kaori Sakagami, the only one who used the same model of mobile phone as the deceased." Kudo Shinichi raised his finger to Kaori Sakagami, and the murderer was her!This was discovered while watching the surveillance video. Tomoyo Sakagami called Sakagami Tamura after receiving the text message. At the same time, Kaori Sakagami picked up the phone and pressed the call. It was really a coincidence.

"Hmph, what are you kidding, my brother gave me my mobile phone, what's so strange about the same model and the same model? Do you have any evidence to prove that I took my brother's mobile phone? Do you have my fingerprint on my brother's mobile phone?" Sakagami Kaori shrugged and said innocently.

"It is true that there is no second person's fingerprint on the deceased's mobile phone, but the evidence I mentioned is not this." Xinyi said with a smile, "I asked you to take out the mobile phone and your belongings just now to lower your vigilance, I think What I looked at was not the phone, but this..."

Kaori Sakagami's face paled in an instant, and what Shinichi was pointing at was a small black remote control.

Mihua Hotel designed all the remote controllers to be exactly the same as the car remote controllers. The difference is that each exclusive remote controller has entered the name of the owner of the remote controller in the electronic system of the remote controller. The police only need to check it. Know who this remote belongs to.The murderer pushed the deceased down the stairs. In order to prevent the police from noticing the real crime location, he would definitely take away the remote control from the deceased. After committing the crime, the murderer specially invited the witness Tomoyo Sakagami to come up to prove his innocence, so there is no This important evidence of time transfer.

Kaori Sakagami sighed, and said in frustration: "Yes, I did it. I secretly installed a button bomb on the glass that can be exploded by remote control in the lounge, and then replaced the mobile phone. In the evening, I will give my sister I sent a text message with my own mobile phone. My brother thought I was going to talk to him about the inheritance and went up to the top floor, so I pushed him down. Grandpa is so partial, why should I leave everything to my brother? So what are parents and our sisters? Brother is such a selfish person, I will have nothing in the future, I..."

The Sakagami couple looked at their youngest daughter in surprise, as if they had never really known her before.

Police officer Takagi stepped forward and detained Kaori Sakagami. Unexpectedly, the murderer was such a young girl, who obviously had a bright future waiting for her to work hard, but she chose to embark on this path.

After finishing Kaori Sakagami, Kudo Shinkan looked at Tomoyo Sakagami and said, "Vermouth, should you show your true colors?"

"Mr. Detective, what are you talking about?" Tomoyo Sakagami put down his hand on his waist, with a confused expression on his face.

"Ms. Tomoyo Sakagami wears a ring on her left ring finger. She should be married, and a woman who wears a wedding ring for a long time will have a circle of marks on her hand after taking off the ring. Ms. Tomoyo Sakagami, where is your wedding ring?" New He noticed Tomoyo Sakagami's fingers when he was searching for items just now. He remembered that Tomoyo Sakagami in the surveillance video was wearing a diamond ring of more than ten carats.

"Hehehe, you know Vermouth, it really is Gin's person." Tomoyo Sakagami tore off the camouflage on his face with one hand, took out a pistol from his arms with the other hand, and pointed it at Shinichi Kudo.

Xinyi felt bad, it wasn't Vermouth in disguise, so he was Gin's enemy?
