With Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko present, ambulances and police cars always arrive faster than before.
The Mumu Police Department arrived quickly with people.
When he arrived in the yard, he looked seriously at the open space and first saw Conan, who was quickly searching for clues at the scene.
The police department's eyes twitched as they tried to drive this overly bold child away from the scene.
But before he spoke, someone approached from behind. The police turned around and saw Jiang Xia.
"..." It's been a long time since I've seen this efficient detective, and the Mumu Police Department actually missed it for a while. These days, I don't know if it's because Jiang Xia is on a business trip, but he always feels that there are fewer murders in Mihua Town than usual. But it's not too little.
It means zero - with the comparison, the police department now realizes more clearly how easily Jiang Xia solves crimes.
"How's it going, brother Jiang Xia?" Mumu Police Department quickly came closer and pricked up his ears to hear the spoilers. He lowered his voice and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
"..." Jiang Xia also lowered her voice to remind him, "I just left for a while and now I have just come back. I have to look for possible clues."
"...That's right." Police Department Mu Mu nodded.
So he ran to the body again and urged the inspector: "Try to hurry up."
There are not enough manpower today, Miwako Sato has taken people to deal with another murder case.
If he finishes here early, maybe he can recommend Jiang Xia to go there for a walk... Good detectives, let's all join in.
…
The autopsy soon gave preliminary results, and Minagawa Katsuhiko died of pesticide poisoning.
The police also conducted tests on the physical evidence next to the body.
The first thing that came out was the piece of chocolate that fell next to the body and had been bitten twice - it was mixed with pesticides. It was a gift from Watanabe Homi.
"Why did you kill him?!" Sekiya Xiang overheard the conclusion and looked at Watanabe Haomei angrily, "Today is Valentine's Day. If the person you like gives him chocolate, he will definitely eat it - you rely on him to like you, give it to him
He poisoned you? What on earth could he do to you?"
Watanabe Haomei was very innocent and sobbed: "I, I didn't..."
The man with glasses was startled for a moment, his expression a little strange.
At this time, another policeman also ran over holding the evidence bag:
"Police department, the smoke is poisonous!"
Sekiya Xiang looked over again in confusion.
She likes the dead and is particularly concerned about this murder case. Upon hearing this new clue, Sekiya Kaoru quickly remembered the key point.
She left Watanabe Haomei behind and glared at the man with glasses: "He finished smoking his own cigarettes, and when he went out, he took the cigarette you handed him!"
The man with glasses sighed, as if the stone in his heart had finally fallen to the ground.
He straightened his back and admitted directly: "Yes, it was me who poisoned me - I have hated him for a long time. He has always treated me as a fool and wasted your precious thoughts. Huh, he always forgot before.
He brought a cigarette with him, so I poisoned the filter. Unexpectedly, he asked me for a cigarette today..."
"..." Jiang Xia watched for a while, before the Mu Mu police department walked up to the man with glasses and said, "Please come with us," he said, "Only the filter of that cigarette is poisonous?"
The surveyor and the man with glasses were startled, then subconsciously nodded at the same time.
"Then don't rush to take the blame first."
Jiang Xia pointed at the evidence bag and pulled back the erroneous path to the truth: "Cigarette butts and cigarette bodies are separate - Mr. Minagawa's own pack of cigarettes seems to be a brand without a filter, so even though he took it, it was taken by you
It was a poisoned cigarette, but before smoking it, he habitually removed the filter. The part he smoked was not poisonous."
As he talked, Jiang Xia felt like he was playing a simplified version of scripted murder: most of the suspects had issues with Minagawa Katsuhiko, and they also carried out random murder practices... But in this incident, there was only one murderer.
.
The Mumu Police Department perked up when they heard Jiang Xia speak: "Do you know who the murderer is?"
Conan also looked over, and at the same time he was sorting out everything in his mind.
In fact, according to his experience, "people who are always present, but suddenly leave at the time of the crime, and seem to have an alibi" are the most suspicious... Yes, such as Jiang Xia, who suddenly slipped away without knowing when.
However, this thought only briefly crossed his mind and was quickly dismissed by Conan.
——Jiangxia is not a perverted murderer who kills people for fun. He has no relationship with Minagawa Katsuhiko, and he doesn't even know each other at all. He has no motive.
And this time, the deceased was poisoned. Jiang Xia had never touched other people's food. He ate all the things he handled by himself. The only exception was the food Jiang Xia brought after Conan was kissed by the muscle brother just now.
That cup of tea. Conan felt it carefully and felt that he was very healthy at this time and didn't feel like he had drunk pesticides.
…In short, there is someone else who is the murderer.
"..." Conan thought and hit his head in retrospect: Even if Jiang Xia was present, he should not solve the case in a hurry, but always want to follow the routine, intuitively analyze in this direction, and try to rely on "a flash of inspiration"
flash".
It is still necessary to judge based on evidence and logic in a down-to-earth manner. Although Jiang Xia probably solved the case when he was thinking about logic, the detective's ethics cannot be lost... Conan nodded secretly in his heart, encouraging himself.
The Mu Mu Police Department did not notice that there was a child with complicated mood next to them, and they were waiting intently for Jiang Xia's conclusion.
Jiang Xia shook his head: "I came a little late, so I don't know much about the situation at that time."
The police who listened carefully were a little disappointed.
But soon, they heard Jiang Xia say: "But my intuition tells me that at this time, people who behave abnormally often have problems. If you ask them about it, you may get unexpected results, such as -"
Jiang Xia suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the kitchen: "My son just passed away, the police are still walking around in the hall, but Mrs. Minagawa is actually busy washing cups."
"..."
A group of people followed his direction and turned their heads in slow motion.
The originally gentle trickling sound seemed to suddenly amplify after being noticed - at the end of their line of sight, Mrs. Minagawa, dressed in a kimono with her sleeves rolled up, was standing in front of the kitchen sink, with her back to them, rinsing away as if nothing had happened.
With tea cups and dishes.
Suddenly being stared at, her movements froze, and her hand holding the coffee cup tightened in embarrassment.
After a while, Mrs. Minagawa gritted her teeth and suddenly increased her speed, trying to finish washing the remaining coffee cups before the police came to their senses.
The sound of water suddenly changing speed finally woke up the police who had been at ease for too long and had lost their observation skills.
The veins on the forehead of Police Department Mumu jumped, and he waved his hand: "Stop her!"
Conan: "..."
He actually saw Mrs. Minagawa's actions, but his first reaction was to think along this abnormality... Huh? Wait, Jiang Xia also used intuition to solve the case?
