Conan and Kinoshita Yoko were lying in front of the one-way mirror, intently looking at the suspect in the interrogation room.
Jiang Xia stood nearby, a little bored.
He remembered the live broadcast opening video cut by Vodka just now. He had nothing to do, so he decided to send a message to his colleagues to express their feelings:
[By the way, do you know who the lucky mascot was when the live broadcast started yesterday, wearing a doll suit, shaking hands and hugging Ms. Yoko, and always asking for photos and autographs?]
On the other side, inside the black vehicle.
Vodka looked down at the mail and sneered.
Oh, do you think this can stir up my emotions and arouse my anger? I...
Damn, I’m really a little angry!
Vodka: "..." Bastard Uzo, I hope this guy will be poisoned by a sudden poison as soon as he takes the snacks handed to him by the suspect.
...By the way, who is that mascot?
If you can't get Uzo, why can't you get that guy?
Just as he was thinking fiercely, Jiang Xia's next email came:
[It’s Bourbon. These days, whenever he wants, he can come to Ms. Yoko to cooperate at any time. If anyone else applies for the mascot job, they will get the same treatment now. Alas, what a pity.]
Vodka: "..."
Oh, stupid Uzo, do you think he will be fooled if you provoke him so much? Going to live broadcast such a dangerous thing, except for Bourbon who was calculated, other cadres would be stupid to do it.
Vodka: "..." But I can do bourbon, why can't I? I just wear a hood and say a few silly words to cheer...
No, no, no! It’s such an obvious temptation and conspiracy, you’d be a fool to fall for it!
Vodka's thoughts experienced many swings in a short period of time, and finally stabilized: "Conspiracy, it's all Uzo's conspiracy!"
…
After Jiang Xia sent the email and didn't receive a reply, she suddenly felt a little pity.
But after experiencing the fluctuation just now, the vodka must have had some ice cream.
I recently found an excuse to go to Gin's car and take a look around. I should be able to find the murderous aura balls that fell from the car.
While Jiang Xia was squeezing ice cream remotely, Officer Takagi finally found the equipment and started replaying yesterday's live broadcast.
Although the focus of the live broadcast was on the host and Jiang Xia, after entering the coffee shop, as a quarrel suddenly broke out at a certain table, the cameraman instinctively turned the camera there.
So soon, everyone saw two middle-aged men wearing glasses arguing fiercely across the dining table.
"Yes, it is indeed the deceased and the suspect." Miwako Sato checked carefully and suddenly saw a scene, "Pause!"
As the scene paused, the technicians zoomed in on the two cups on the table.
They were two thermos cups, very close to each other. The cups were actually the same model and looked exactly the same.
The scene continued. After learning that a live broadcast was going on and asked people to stop arguing, Hashizume Akira picked up the thermos cup and stuffed it into his bag and left angrily.
Behind him, the deceased stared at the remaining thermos cup, his face changing several times. Finally, he lowered his head, picked up the remaining cup, and left in a hurry.
Everyone's eyes fell on his face.
Sato Miwako hesitated: "Why do I feel... when Hashizume Akira left, he seemed to have deliberately taken the deceased's cup by mistake?" She looked at Jiang Xia for confirmation.
"It does seem intentional." Jiang Xia nodded, "Although the two thermos cups are close to each other, no matter how close they are, they cannot be placed in the same position. When Hashizume Akira left, he actually took the one slightly farther away from him.
A cup. Judging from its position, it looks more like the deceased’s thermos cup.”
Yoko Kinoshita always felt that the expressions of the two people when they left were strange: "Maybe they saw that there was a camera filming, and they were embarrassed to continue arguing, so they didn't care about taking the wrong cup. They just wanted to get away from the camera as soon as possible, and then go back to the camera again."
Exchange it back?"
"There may be another situation." Officer Takagi suddenly had some speculation and slammed his fist on his palm. "I remember that the deceased was poisoned by the coffee in the thermos cup. Maybe it was yesterday that the two of them met at the restaurant.
Previously, Hashizume Akira poisoned his thermos cup, and when he left, he deliberately took the wrong cup and left his poisoned cup of coffee to the deceased. The deceased drank the poison when he walked under the bridge.
The coffee was poisoned to death!"
Jiang Xia pointed to another scene in the video: "The deceased looked at the thermos cup with such a strange expression. He should have discovered that the two of them had taken the wrong cup to each other. But he still drank the poison. There should be another hidden reason behind this."
Officer Takagi is quite optimistic: "Anyway, this can be regarded as a breakthrough. If the Megure Police Department seizes this point for questioning..."
…
Unfortunately, the Mumu Police Department failed to meet his expectations.
Instead, Hashizume Akira relied on his burying skills developed as a reporter to find out the time of death of the deceased from the police in many twists and turns.
Then he leaned back in his chair with a relaxed expression: "Humph, I told you that you arrested the wrong person, but you still don't admit it - during this period, I had an alibi."
"Alibi?" Sato Miwako frowned and ran over to listen.
Kinoshita Yoko stayed where she was, with a strange expression.
Jiang Xia looked at her: "What's wrong?"
Yoko Kinoshita looked around and found that no one was eavesdropping. Then he got closer and quietly said to Jiang Xia: "According to the collection of your cases I collected, those people with the strongest alibi are probably the truth in the case."
Fierce! It seems that this case has already been solved. I hope it can be solved soon, and then we can go to your school to film together."
Jiang Xia: "..." Do you know a little too much?
But forget it, it's not a big problem. He nodded and agreed casually: "I also want to go to school early."
That being said, Jiang Xia is actually not very enthusiastic about Didan Middle School. In his impression, there are very few murder cases in the school. Occasionally, when there are some cases, they are mostly just pretentious.
Compared to this, he felt that the way to school was more exciting.
Hashizume Akira was unaware of the detective's thoughts and was still arguing with the police: "Didn't that guy die between 7 and 9 last night? And I have been squatting on a target from 6 pm to early this morning.
Black information, that guy is suspected of cheating, I have been squatting under his building for several days."
"...You say it's unfounded, what evidence do you have?"
"Don't the videos I took count as evidence?" Hashizume Akira snorted, "Let me go home and I'll copy the things I took."
…
Not long after, the video was played in the police station.
In the lower right corner of the video, there is the shooting time. And at around 7 o'clock last night, a courier happened to go to the target's apartment to deliver a package, and it was also captured in the shot.
