In the yard below the slope.
With his extraordinary eyesight, Tang Ze smiled slightly when he saw Conan falling into the happy punishment of Xiaolan's "facial cleanser".
After prevaricating Takagi who asked him what he was doing, Karasawa turned around and focused his attention on the case again.
This wave can be said to be full of merit and fame. In order to provide benefits to Conan, his little brother, he has been worried~
Now Xiaolan probably won't release Conan from the "welfare" before going to the supermarket for a big purchase.
Thinking that Conan had been able to enjoy Xiaolan's "soft" embrace for such a long time, Tangze felt that it was necessary for Conan to treat him to a meal and thank him for his "magic assist".
After getting rid of the annoying guy Conan and sending him to enjoy "welfare", Tang Ze felt refreshed.
It would be much easier to exclude Conan from the case at the beginning. Moreover, the case was originally estimated to be 300 minimum living allowance. In case Conan was involved, it would make it easier for him to reduce the difficulty.
Reward, that would be bad...
After skipping this short interlude, Tang Ze and the two returned to the topic again.
"The time was probably around 8 o'clock yesterday morning."
Takagi, who was standing aside, held up the police manual that recorded yesterday's testimony and asked: "Because you didn't see the president show up at the routine morning meeting before starting work, you went to his office to call him."
"That's right, right over here." The young man nodded with a solemn expression, and immediately led the two of them toward the house.
"Is the dormitory chief originally in another building?" Tangze asked while looking at the surrounding environment.
"That's right, it's at the very back of the office." The young man nodded after hearing this.
"Then it was here that you found the president, Mr. Katsugoro Kitamura, lying on his side on the ground." Takagi continued to confirm.
"Yes, that's it..." The young man nodded and said, "As soon as I pushed the door open, I saw the president lying on his side on the ground.
At that time, I thought that the president had a sudden illness or fell down, so I hurriedly tried to help him up, but when I turned over the president's body, I found that a knife had been inserted into his heart...
After that, I immediately called the police..."
"I wonder if you noticed anything strange at the scene at that time?" Takagi couldn't help but ask, looking at the crime scene that remained the same.
"It seems there's nothing worth noting..." The young man scratched his head and said, "Maybe I was too panicked and didn't pay attention at all...
But hasn’t the prisoner been caught? Why are you still asking these questions?”
"Because we couldn't find any irrefutable evidence." Takagi smiled helplessly and said, "Because of some unexpected discoveries, the case fell into trouble..."
Karasawa on the side did not change when he heard this. He had already heard Takagi talk about the case in the car before, and he also knew what Takagi was talking about.
He observed the situation around him and then began to sort out the current status of the case.
The victim, Kitamura Katsugoro, was the president of this factory and was considered young at forty-seven years old.
The estimated time of death was between 4:00 and 10:00 in the afternoon the day before yesterday.
Of course, the body was not found after death, and the police were not informed until 8 a.m. the next day.
After that, Takagi and others immediately sealed off the crime scene and launched an investigation.
As for the suspect, he quickly surfaced under police investigation and was immediately brought back to the Metropolitan Police Department yesterday.
However, things weren't going so smoothly.
The suspect's name is Minamida Yuichi, and he is the same age as the deceased. Because of a recent injury, his right foot was still bandaged when the suspect was arrested, and he could only walk with a cane.
His identity is the chef of a Xiaoxing Western restaurant, and he is also a high school classmate of the victim Kitamura Katsugoro.
During the interview, Minamada Yuichi indeed stated that he did visit Kitamura's company yesterday, but denied the fact that he killed the other party.
However, according to Takagi's investigation, they found that Yuichi Minamada had borrowed three million from the victim Katsugoro Kitamura.
Because the repayment deadline had come, and the victim Kitamura Katsugoro did not agree with his delay in repaying the money, there was a conflict between the two, and this was also the reason why the police suspected that he killed the deceased.
However, when questioning the other party, Minamida Yuichi refused to admit it and asked the police to produce evidence.
But there were no fingerprints of the other party on the murder weapon.
Judging from the few fiber fragments found on the murder knife by the forensics department, there is no doubt that after killing the victim Katsugoro Kitamura, the prisoner completely wiped it off with a handkerchief or cloth.
Although at the beginning, this motive was not considered strong, as they conducted in-depth investigation, they discovered that there was actually another hidden secret behind it, which even allowed them to basically identify Yuichi Minamada as the prisoner.
Because the other party has a very strong motive for killing.
According to interviews and investigations, Kitamura Katsugoro once secretly spread rumors that the Western restaurant run by Minami Yuichi had problems with hygiene management and was investigated and punished many times.
This rumor caused the restaurant's reputation to drop sharply, and many people did not even dare to eat in the restaurant, leading to a decline in business.
Three months later, Kitamura Katsugoro lent Minamida Yuichi 3 million in financing.
The reason for doing this is because Kitamura Katsugoro plans to purchase Minamida Yuichi's store and land.
It's a pity that when Minami Yuichi realized this, it was already too late.
Regarding being plotted against by his high school friend, Minamida Yuichi also publicly expressed his anger and dissatisfaction towards Kitamura to the people around him.
And on the day of repayment, that is, at one o'clock in the afternoon on the day of the murder, Yuichi Minamada arrived at the other party's office on time according to the time agreed with Kitamura Katsugoro.
The conversation seemed a bit long, and the stalemate lasted from one o'clock to about three o'clock. At this point, the young man they were questioning provided testimony.
Because there was something suddenly wrong with the machinery in the factory at that time, he knocked on the door and came to Kitamura Katsugoro's office and happened to see this scene in front of him.
After that, although he left the office, he still heard the quarrel coming from the office.
Minami Yuichi asked Kitamura Katsugoro if he wanted his land from the beginning and plotted against him.
Later, there was a sound of someone falling in the office. Because he had a cane, he thought it was the president who pushed Minamida Yuichi.
After that, he heard Kitamura Katsugorō yelling at him to put down his power and get away after he turned against him. He also scolded him as "useless trash" before leaving.
