Science: Night attack on Mao Lilan

"What? He can't possibly kill anyone."

Mao Lilan said in surprise.

She clearly remembered that she had been fighting with him until the early morning last night.

It's impossible to go out and kill people.

"Xiao Lan, how do you know he can't kill anyone?"

Sato Miwako asked back.

"this......"

When asked, Mao Lilan couldn't answer the question.

"Don't worry, Xiaolan. We will never wrongly accuse a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."

"Okay, I get it Officer Sato."

Since Sato Miwako said so, Mao Li Ran could only choose to believe her.

After hanging up the phone, Mao Lilan was a little overwhelmed.

She knew clearly that Jiang Yu would not be the murderer.

But his fingerprints were on the murder weapon, which was enough to convict him.

Mao Lilan didn't know what to do now?

Oh, Shinichi can help her.

Ran Mouri knew that Kudo Shinichi and Megure Juzo had a good relationship.

He can help Jiang Yu clear the suspicion.

Although she had an unpleasant experience with Kudo Shinichi before, Mao Lilan knew that he was the only one who could help her in this situation.

After Mao Lilan stood up and walked out of the classroom, she called Kudo Shinichi.

"Hey, Xiaolan, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Kudo Shinichi's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Um... I have something I want to ask you for help with."

Mao Lilan said weakly.

"Then tell me what you want my help with?"

When Kudo Shinichi heard that Mouri Ran asked him for help, he spoke in a calm tone.

Soon, Mao Lilan told Kudo Shinichi about Jiang Yu being invited to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Kudo Shinichi soon fell into silence and did not speak for a long time.

"Shinichi, Shinichi..."

When Mao Lilan heard that Kudo Shinichi didn't say anything, she said anxiously.

At this time, Kudo Shinichi said something.

"Since his fingerprints are on the murder weapon, he must be the murderer."

Chapter 25 Clearing the Suspicion

Metropolitan Police Department, interrogation room.

Jiang Yu sat there alone, surrounded by surveillance cameras with no blind spots.

At this time, the door of the interrogation room opened.

Miwako Sato walked in heroically.

She came to Jiang Yu and placed the report in her hand on the table in front of Jiang Yu.

"This is the fingerprint comparison report on the murder weapon..."

Before Sato Miwako could finish her words, she heard Jiang Yu speak.

"It's just my fingerprints, right?"

"Huh? How do you know?"

Sato Miwako asked in surprise.

"You called me here simply because, apart from the deceased's fingerprints, my fingerprints were the only ones left on the murder weapon. Am I right?"

Jiang Yu expressed his opinion.

"Yes."

Sato Miwako also nodded without any concealment.

"You can check the hotel surveillance. The presidential suite on the floor where I live should have surveillance, right?"

Jiang Yu continued.

At this moment he suddenly realized something.

"Could it be that all the hotel surveillance cameras are no longer working?"

"Well, yes. Now there is no one to prove that you didn't go to the deceased's room and kill him."

Sato Miwako nodded and said.

"When was the deceased's death?"

Jiang Yu wanted to know the time of death so that she could think of how to prove her alibi.

"The time of death was between 9:30 and 10:30 last night."

Miwako Sato told Jiang Yu the time of death truthfully.

Hearing this, Jiang Yu fell into deep thought.

Because Mao Lilan came at eleven o'clock, it was just at this time.

So I can't let Mao Lilan use her as evidence of my absence.

All surveillance is ineffective, and I can only become the most suspicious person.

Jiang Yu closed her eyes and recalled the scene of meeting the deceased last night.

"Hello, I live next door to you. My name is Mizutani Yuta. The handle of my fruit knife is broken. Can I borrow yours?"

"I will return it to you right away, please rest assured."

"I wonder if there's anyone else in your room? I'd like to invite you to my room for a drink."

"So you are waiting for someone, then I won't bother you anymore."

Soon, Jiang Yu opened his eyes.

"Officer Sato, have you investigated the deceased's financial situation?"

In response to Jiang Yu's question, Sato Miwako also nodded.

"After investigation, it was found that the man was in good financial condition and had no pressure of debt, so the possibility of suicide being caused by poor financial situation was ruled out."

Miwako Sato replied.

"Officer Sato, can you lend me your computer?"

Jiang Yu suddenly said.

"What do you want to do?"

Sato Miwako asked warily.

"I want to check all the economic information of Mizutani Yuta."

Jiang Yu decided to use his [Genius Hacker] skills to thoroughly investigate Mizutani Yuta.

When Sato Miwako heard that Jiang Yu wanted to investigate the deceased's entire financial situation, she guessed something.

"You suspect he committed suicide?"

Jiang Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I thought about the conversation I had with him before. After knowing that I was alone, he wanted to invite me into his room, so I suspected that he wanted to knock me out and then commit suicide to disguise it as a murder."

"Why did he commit suicide disguised as murder?"

Sato Miwako was also curious about Jiang Yu's words.

"It's possible that he wanted to defraud insurance."

Jiang Yu's words seemed to be a reminder to Sato Miwako.

She remembered that when she investigated the deceased, she did find that he had an insurance policy.

It seems to be accident insurance, and the insurance amount is as high as 10 million yen.

The beneficiaries are his wife and daughter.

Could it really be suicide to get insurance money? ? ?

When Sato Miwako thought of this, she rushed out of the interrogation room.

Jiang Yu was the only one left in the entire interrogation room.

Jiang Yu just sat there indifferently.

An hour passed before Sato Miwako opened the door and walked in.

"We checked that he did buy insurance, and we also found out that he owed 8 million yen to loan sharks because of gambling, and you had no motive to kill him."

"That proves he committed suicide, not murder by me?"

Jiang Yu still wants to clear himself of suspicion.

"Well, you really have no motive to kill him, so you can leave now."

Sato Miwako nodded and said.

Jiang Yu didn't expect that he would be cleared of suspicion before he had the chance to use his [Genius Hacker] skill.

"Okay, thank you Officer Sato for your help then."
