Saturday, April 22, afternoon.

Regarding Umezu Takashi, Mikami Tsuka, Araki Chika and the other two had doubts about them. The Meguro Police Department said: "You said you are not the murderer, so you must have absent proof."

Maori said: "In my judgment, Mr. Umetsusu's death time is between three and four o'clock in the afternoon."

The three of them looked at me, and I looked at you, shook their heads helplessly, indicating that there was no absent proof.

Yamazaki said: "Mr. Mikami, didn't you say you called Mr. Umetsusu here? If it's a landline, it can prove your location."

Mikamito said, "I know this, but I use a cell phone."

"A mobile phone? It takes a little effort to find the base station." Yamazaki said, "Please tell me your mobile phone number."

"ah?"

Everyone noticed that Mikami's hands were shaking a little.

Chika Araki screamed, "Mikamito, was it you who killed the teacher?"

Sankansu called out like a conditioned reflex: "No, I don't, I really don't."

"Then please report your mobile phone number." Maori took Mikakato's cell phone and called Megumi's police department's cell phone.

Soon, the investigation results came out, and Mikamito called Meijinxiu twice this afternoon.

The first call was answered, and it took nearly a minute.

No one answered the second call.

The second call was within the time of Umejinxiu's death, and the locations were all near Umejinxiu's home.

Meguri Police Department asked: "Mr. Mikamito, what are your explanations for this?"

Maori asked, "Mr. Mikamito, you said you had called and found that no one answered, so you rushed over to check it out."

Mikamito said, "That, yes, when I was nearby, I wanted to call the teacher, but I found that no one answered, so I ran over."

"Oh, nearby," asked the Meguro Police Department, "so where was it?"

Maori said: "Don't tell us, you can't remember where you were."

"Yes, I can't remember it." Mikamito said, "I was wandering around and counting wherever I went."

Maori said angrily: "You are so leisurely."

Mikamito said, "I'm thinking."

Conan reminded: "Hey, the assistant can write books, right?"

Chika Araki said in surprise: "Ah, Mikami, you can't write that book!"

"No, no." Sankanto strongly denied it, but his guilty attitude was undoubtedly revealed.

"Oh, so that's it. It's not enough for the old man to bully Araki forever. Even you are tired. It's really worth being killed." Umezura smiled, "Thank you so much."

Maori said angrily: "You guy, what's going on with you? He is your father!"

"So, the old man should be fine," Metsunon sneered, "Look at how the old man is doing to these assistants, you can imagine my past experience. I didn't kill him, even if I deserve him."

Maori has nothing to say, because now it seems that Umetsusu's character is indeed a problem.

Meguro police department said to Mikamito: "Mr. Mikamito, don't resist anymore. As a novelist, I think you must have a manuscript, that is the best evidence."

Mikamito clenched his fist and gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I am the author of the novel "The Road to the Thirteen Steps". Teacher Umejinshu took it away."

Maori was overjoyed, "Very good, so you admitted to killing Mr. Umetsusu."

"No, I don't admit it." Mikamito said, "You can't think that I'm the murderer just because of this. Miss Chika Araki next to me has many works taken away by the teacher. If she killed the teacher, I'm not surprised at all."

Chika Araki was anxious, "No, I didn't."

"If Miss Araki is not the murderer, then I think the teacher committed suicide," Mikamito said. "The reason is that the judges have noticed that the novel "The Road to the Thirteenth Levels" was not written by the teacher. He was afraid that I would expose him and end up ruining his reputation, so he committed suicide."

Chika Araki hesitated, "This, this is not impossible."

Yamazaki asked: "Two, why are you willing to be a shadow writer and the other unwilling? Is it a matter of money?"

Chika Araki said with some shame: "Yes, I agreed to let the teacher publish my novel in his name because I was short of money, so that I could have a better income."

"I just didn't expect that my work actually received a good response. I would have disagreed if I had known it, but it was already difficult to get on the verge of death."

"In terms of writing style, my work style is not far from that of the teacher's work style. It is spread to the outside world. That is the new idea developed by the teacher and has been branded as a teacher."

"And because he is a famous teacher, he can achieve good grades. If he were an unknown person, I believe that the grades in the book would not be very good."

"This is the star effect. We newcomers can only be constantly sucked in blood."

Speaking of this, Chika Araki's expression changed from tragic to hatred.

"Here, did you hear it?" Mikamito said, "I am short of money, but I don't want to become like Miss Chika, hiding behind the teacher for the rest of my life and becoming the bone under his throne." Then, "To be honest, if anyone here doesn't want the teacher to die, it's me, because I'm proposing a salary increase to the teacher."

Maori was not good and said in anger: "I'm afraid it's blackmail?"

"Whatever you say, in short, if the teacher doesn't die, I can use this matter and gain the right to speak in front of the teacher." Mikamito said, "I said before that the teacher would commit suicide. This is the reason. If I don't want to say it, I don't want to expose the transaction between me and the teacher."

"If you say so..." Maori and Meguri looked at each other for a moment, and Mikamito really had no reason to kill Umetsusu.

Next to him, Conan looked for Yamazaki, pulled Yamazaki aside, and pointed out the information about Umetsusu's death to Yamazaki.

"Death message?" Yamazaki felt a toothache, "is it the scepter held by the priest in his body's hand?"

Conan said: "That's right, obviously this was taken by Umetsusu afterwards."

"I don't know where you obviously see it," Yamazaki asked angrily, "I'm sure it wasn't the scene arranged by the murderer?"

"Listen to me," Conan said, "The scepter Umetsuzu was holding was upside down, and in his essay, he had a childish mechanism that others thought was not worth mentioning. Everyone was watching but no one found his own pleasure."

"So what?" Yamazaki asked, "What does this mechanism have to do with Katsura?"

"Many of his works are palindromes, which means reading them in the opposite direction." Conan said, "In other words, adding palindromes to his works is what Mr. Umetsu calls the secret fun."

"And then, because Mikami Mikami is also a palindrome, he is the murderer?" Yamazaki asked, "That's how do you think?"

Conan said: "Yes, but I haven't found any further evidence yet, so I want to ask you why you suspect he is the murderer."

Yamazaki said: "I suspect him just because he was the first discoverer and also brought Uncle Maori. According to Uncle Maori's usual luck, he is likely to be the murderer. In addition, the scene is a bit inconsistent, the deceased is neat and the scene is messy."

"Hmm, then?" Conan asked, "What is the evidence?"

"No, he pushed it very cleanly." Yamazaki asked, "By the way, do you know what I think? Death message?"

Conan asked, "Oh, what do you think?"

Yamazaki said: "Umetsusu obviously drank poison, which can be seen from the coffee."

"So what?" Conan asked.

Yamazaki said: "I don't think he can stand up after he falls, so Umetsusu committed suicide. He held the scepter in hopes of getting lucky after his death."

Conan shook his head and smiled, "This is impossible, he must have killed him."

Yamazaki asked, "Where is the evidence?"

Conan said: "I'll find it."

Yamazaki said: "So, if Umetsusu was killed by him, I think the murderer was still here at that time, so this scepter was arranged by the murderer."

Conan insisted: "No, this must have been taken by him later."

Yamazaki shook his head and said, "Your detective intuition cannot be used as evidence, and the death information you mentioned cannot convince the public because no one can be sure that he can stand up after he falls down after taking the poison."

"..." Conan had nothing to say.

At this time, the forensic personnel finished work and came to report the situation to Meguro Police Department.

What Mei Jinxiu drank was coffee, and it was initially identified as a neurological poison, which was also the cause of his death.

Mei Jinxiu had trauma behind his head, but the blood was limited to the bottom of his head, which means it was caused by falling down.

Conan interrupted, "Hey, can you tell if he has ever risen after he fell?"

The forensic staff said: "This is not easy to judge, because if he has very little bleeding due to trauma, even if he stands up, the blood may not necessarily flow much."

"In addition, there are no bloody handprints in the room. It is just that after he stood up, he touched the wound on his head and then touched the bloody handprints left in another place. With this, it means that he must have stood up, but without this, it does not mean that he did not stand up. It can only be said that it may be very small."

Conan was a little discouraged, "That's right."

The forensic personnel continued to report and found some fingerprints and hair. The fingerprints were confirmed to be from Umezin Takashi, Mikazuki, and Chika Araki. The hair found that it was still suspected.

Apart from the fingerprints of the deceased, no fingerprints of others have been found yet. Based on some traces, it is difficult to determine whether someone entered the room with gloves, which means he cannot be judged to be killed...
