Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 922 Wrong confession...

The two gossiping women chewed their tongues, walked around the corner with the sheets in their arms, and met Mao Lilan who was looking for Suanchuan Kazuki.

"Both of you, I saw a little boy with brown hair just now..." Mao Lilan, who was worried that Suanchuan couldn't think about it, asked the two anxiously.

"Eh? Seems like you saw it?" One waitress looked at another waitress.

"Well, just behind the wall over there..."

Following the direction of the waitress' finger, Mao Lilan hurried over.

But when I leaned out to look, the wall behind the corner was empty.

……

Boom, boom, boom—

In the laundry room, each drum washing machine was in operation, constantly making mechanical roars.

Sanzhi Chaoxiang roughly threw the sheets in the vat into the last washing machine, turned the knob, and adjusted the washing time to 20 minutes.

After finishing this, she pushed open the back door of the laundry room and came to the backyard of the hotel.

Although it is the backyard of the hotel, it is restricted to tourists. If you want to get here from the hotel, you can only go through the door of the kitchen and laundry room.

In the dark courtyard, there are sundries that are not used by the hotel, and the brand-new spare parts are stored in a small warehouse that was built privately.

Sanzhi Chaoxiang came to the small courtyard, but seeing no one around, she took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the kimono belt around her waist.

According to the hotel's regulations, female receptionists are not allowed to smoke, because the smell of smoke on their body may affect the mood of the guests, make the guests disgusted, and lower the evaluation of the hotel.

However, Sanzhi Chaoxiang has been addicted to this thing since she was an adult, and she tried to quit several times during the period, but all ended in failure.

It took only a few days to quit smoking every time, and what I got in exchange was a violent counterattack of smoking addiction.

Cigarettes are something that you can't stop once you smoke.

Same thing as that...

Whenever she gets addicted to cigarettes, Sanzhi Zhaoxiang will sneak here to have a little smoke while doing laundry.

Although it is risky to do so, after all, other employees often come here, but it has never been discovered in the past two and a half years.

As for the smell of smoke on your body, you can use the reason that the guests you entertained smoked, and your body smelled of smoke to some extent.

And the cigarette butts after smoking can be thrown into the drain of the laundry room and washed away, and no one will find anyone smoking here.

Sanzhi Chaoxiang held the cigarette in his mouth, and lit it with the lighter.

White smoke curled up, and she leaned against the wall, quietly enjoying this rare quiet and relaxing moment.

Now that the normal business hours of the hotel have passed, almost no employees will come to this place again. It is the most comfortable time of the day to smoke.

After smoking this cigarette, washing the remaining sheets, and drying them, it was time for the waitress to rest.

This hotel has good welfare conditions for employees, three days off, one day off, food and lodging, and a good hourly salary. This is an important reason for Sanzhi Chaoxiang to choose this place.

Just as Sanzhi Chaoxiang was quietly smoking the cigarette between her fingers, not knowing what was going on in her head, a voice suddenly came faintly from the side.

"What are you doing here?"

It was obviously a childlike and immature voice, but it surprised the grown-up Sanzhi Asaka.

She quickly dropped the cigarette in her hand like a conditioned reflex, and looked to the side, and it turned out to be Kinukawa Kazuki.

"Yes, it's you..."

"Is there anything you need?"

Saneda Asaka showed a stiff smile to ease the embarrassment, turned around to face Kinukawa Kazuki, and twirled the cigarette butt on the ground vigorously with her feet in slippers, wishing she could bury the cigarette butt in the ground with just her feet.

Although I wasn't caught smoking by the proprietress, it was quite uncomfortable to be seen by my young son.

Fortunately, the child doesn't know his relationship with him yet.

But when Saneda Asaka thought so in her heart, Suanchuan Kazuki's next words made her heart feel like falling into an ice cave.

"You are my mother, right?"

Hearing this sentence, Sanzhi Zhaoxiang was stunned, her mind was in a trance, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Juanchuan Hehui took a step forward, and said in a calm tone, "I already know all about it, you are the one who sent me those postcards."

"It's you, Atsuko..."

Kiankawa Kazuki revealed the name that was inscribed on the note in her infancy when her biological mother abandoned her, and it was Sanzhi Asaka's real name.

Hearing this name that no one had mentioned for a long time, Sanzhi Chaoxiang burst into tears instantly, no matter how good her acting skills were, she couldn't continue.

"Xiaohe!"

Saneda Asaka hugged Suanchuan Kazuki's body excitedly, tears flowed from her eyes unstoppably.

And Kinukawa Kazuki also let his body be embraced by this "strange woman" whom he met for the first time, with a complicated expression on his face.

"Woooo-"

"I'm the one who's sorry for you, Xiaohe, woo--"

After a while, Kinukawa Kazuki whispered in Saneda Asaka's ear.

"Please confess your crimes..."

"Ok?"

Sanzhi Asaka withdrew her crying pear blossom and rained her head, put her hands on Juanchuan Kazuki's shoulders, and asked with a frown, "Xiaohe, what are you talking about?"

Kiankawa Kazuki continued to insist on his statement, "Please confess to the police!"

"As long as you sincerely repent of your crimes, you should be forgiven..."

Juanchuan Kazuki's first words were roared out, representing his sincere wish for his biological mother to repent.

As for the second sentence, his tone gradually weakened.

He was adopted by the church, and his concept of good and evil was also greatly influenced by Western churches.

At a young age, he still doesn't know the concept of "surrender to the police", but as long as he tells his crimes and repents to the priest and God devoutly, his crimes will be forgiven by God.

The priest also taught him that if a person commits a serious sin, God cannot forgive him, and he will definitely go to hell after death.

Such as taking the life of oneself or another.

But even knowing that homicide cannot be forgiven, he still hopes that his mother will repent and confess her crime to the police.

Just like a priest, knowing that killing people will go to hell, he will patiently persuade those murderers who come to confess to confess to the police.

Of course, in fact, the priest had already secretly called the police, but he just used classic words to hold him back and let the police come to catch the prisoner.

Father, I don't talk about martial arts anymore.

Sanzhi Asaka looked at Kinukawa Kazuki in disbelief, she never imagined that the son she just met knew about her.

"So you already know..."

"Please, confess to the police..."

"I beg you……"

There was already a hint of pleading in Suanchuan Kazuki's tone, and his pitiful face was moving.

Sanzhi Chaoxiang: "..."

After a moment of silence, she nodded with tears in her eyes.

"Okay, I promise you."

……

In room 205, the Shizuoka prefectural police finally arrived belatedly and are doing on-site investigation.

Unlike Tokyo, Shizuoka Prefecture is relatively peaceful, and generally only the arrival of Conan can temper the speed of the police dispatch of the Shizuoka Search Section [-].

After a quick overview of the situation at the scene, Henggou Sango, the Coral Head Police Department in Shizuoka County, greeted the two famous detectives.

"Oh! I really didn't expect to meet two famous detectives again!"

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Mao Li, then this case depends on the wisdom of the two of you!"

Henggou Sanwu is different from his inch-cut brother. He is very used to the fact that "the police rely on detectives to solve cases", and he has nothing against detectives in his heart.

In other words, mediocre policemen can easily solve crimes, and outstanding detectives can gain fame. This is a win-win situation.

And Henggou Shenwu's almost flattering words were also very pleasing to Kogoro Mori's ears, and he immediately felt happy.

"Haha~ The case is on me!"

Henggou Sanwu was even more excited, "Oh! Then I'm looking forward to this 'Sleeping Kogoro Mori' show?"

"no problem!"

Mori Kogoro was guaranteeing the ticket, but it was Conan who rolled his eyes.

Please, don't say such big words every time, okay?

If Qin Zhibo was not around, Conan would still have the confidence to solve the case and have a double reed show.

But Qin Zhibo is here, he really doesn't dare to make mistakes.

If I use Mori Kogoro, a tool man, to reason and solve the case, other people can't see it. How can Qin Zhibo's terrifying observation ability not see it?

Although Qin Zhibo wouldn't expose it in public, it was in accordance with the rules to play tricks on him a little bit.

Besides, with his own reasoning progress, he may not be able to reason out the truth faster than Qin Zhibo...

Conan looked at Qin Zhibo not far away, strolling in the room where the deceased ducked down.

He started again...

As long as Qin Zhibo started strolling, it meant that he was in the stage of observation and reasoning.

During the stroll, the case was solved.

On Qin Zhibo's body, Conan rarely saw the expression of thinking hard with his chin raised.

Qin Zhibo often announced the correct answer when he was still waiting for a flash of inspiration.

This time is relatively slow, because Qin Zhibo went out just now, and he didn't know what he did, which delayed some time.

Okay, let me guide my uncle to solve the case quickly.

"Ah le le?"

"..."

……

On the other side, Qin Zhibo was scanning the room, carefully checking if there was anything he missed.

At present, the three people encountered in the bath are the most suspicious.

Not only hot water can help the strangulation to recover quickly, but also the back of the duck's head was hit hard, and the blood oozing spots on the scalp indicate that the blood has been sprayed out.

Regardless of whether it splashed on the murderer's body or not, the murderer would definitely wash it off thoroughly with the water in the bathing place just to be on the safe side.

On the other hand, the photo is also a clue that the murderer is a woman with a mole on her chest.

It's a pity that when I saw those three people in the bathing place, the water vapor blocked them quite seriously, and the girls with big braids and short hair shyly turned their backs on their backs, so they didn't see their chests at all.

Just when Qin Zhibo thought he could only ask the police to look at his chest to verify his body, the police forensic personnel opened the luggage bag under the duck, and there was a light spot lying inside.

Investigate points!
Qin Zhibo walked to the side and started investigating directly without asking the forensic personnel.

【Investigation√】

[This is a movie video tape, but the plastic casing of the tape seems to have been pried open]

"Let me take a look at that tape..."

Qin Zhibo asked for a videotape from the forensic personnel. The title was "The Horror of Xiaoxiaoguan".

The cover is a ghost coming out of a dark teaching building, chasing the frightened Kinukawa Kazuki.

Mizase Harumeng was murdered...

But it looks like Kinukawa is making horror movies.

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised about the shooting field of the child star, maybe he was born in a church, so don't be afraid of it.

Rotating to check the edge of the plastic casing of the video tape, Qin Zhibo did see a small gap, in the shape of a small white crack.

Why did the prying of the videotape become a point of investigation?
Qin Zhibo looked inside the video tape, and all he could see at a glance was the tape wrapped in transparent plastic.

For Qin Zhibo, this kind of technological product of some ages is also a childhood memory.

I used to pick up tapes thrown away by others, pull out the tape lines inside, and pull up a "defense line" on both sides of the road.

Most of the cars would drive straight through, the tape would snap when stretched to the limit, and the threads would fly to both sides of the road.

Whenever I see my "trap" working, I feel so happy!
It's like putting a rock on a rail and watching it get run over by the rail!

Now that I think about it, I don't know where the coolness is, it's just consuming the length of the tape needlessly over and over again.

tape...

Wire……

That's it!

Qin Zhibo suddenly thought of what weapon the murderer used.

It's just that even though he thought of the murder weapon, he still couldn't determine the real murderer from the three people.

Qin Zhibo returned the videotape to the forensic personnel and told him to keep it properly, then walked over to Conan and the others.

Here, Conan finally completed the reminder to Kogoro Mori and Yokomizo, so that they can understand that the time when the photo was taken can be used as a basis to find out women who do not have an alibi in the hotel to narrow the scope.

But Qin Zhibo stood up at this time and said bluntly: "There is no need for that, just find three people."

"Huh? What does this mean? Mr. Qin?" Henggou Shenwu asked puzzled.

Qin Zhibo didn't bother to explain to him in detail, so he said: "You will know when you find them."

Qin Zhibo gave the names of the three people to Henggou Shenwu, and Henggou Shenwu immediately arranged for his men to call them over.

Soon, the proprietress, the girl with big braids, and the girl with short hair all arrived.

"Sanzhi, why are your eye circles red, did you cry just now?"

The proprietress looked at Sanzhi Chaoxiang and said with concern.

Sanzhi Asaka didn't answer, but looked down at Kinukawa Kazuki.

In the eyes of her son's encouragement, Sanzhi Chaoxiang solemnly said to Henggou.

"Mr. Police, I confess..."

"I surrender to you."

Henggou Shenwu was still waiting for Qin Zhibo's next prompt when he heard this sentence suddenly.

"What? Have you admitted it?"

"Yes, I admit it..." Sanzhi Asaka lowered her head, and the proprietress and the short-haired girl next to her also opened their mouths wide in surprise.

Kogoro Mori, who was very surprised, rushed over, "Are you the one who killed Yaxia?"

"Eh?"

Hearing Mori Kogoro's words, Saneda Asaka was taken aback for a moment, and quickly shook her head in denial.

"No! I didn't say homicide, I said gambling!"

"I have been gambling illegally and owed a lot of money...but I have never killed anyone!"
