"It's okay. I thought you were too worried about Mr. Mao Li and rushed over, so I came over to have a look. If you feel unwell, I can help with the investigation," Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Mao Lilan walked towards the sofa.
, smiled and said, "After all, I am also a detective!"
"I just got a cut on my shoulder, it's not that serious." Chi Feichi followed him to the sofa and sat down. He raised his head and asked Mao Lilan, "Where is Teacher Mao Li?"
"He went to the racecourse early in the morning," Mao Lilan finished speechlessly, then apologized, "I'm really sorry, Brother Chi and Sister Nanatsuki, for making you worry, but my father doesn't seem to be worried.
If you are affected, please sit down first and I will pour you tea."
"I have something to tell the teacher," Chi Feichi said.
Mao Lilan, who was going to the tea room, turned back in confusion, "Huh?"
"I also have something to ask Mr. Mouri." Nanatsuki Koshizui sat on the sofa and turned to look at Mao Lilan in the tea room. "Isn't the report about Mr. Mouri killing his client too detailed?
One point? As a detective, Mr. Mori would not disclose the contents of the commission to the public. The police have not yet completed the investigation and will not leak the case to the public. However, the report not only explained the contents of the commission, but also the situation of Mr. Urano who committed suicide.
It also mentioned some inside information that is difficult for others to discover, such as the fact that Mr. Urama was wrongly accused by the police five years ago..."
"Are you suspecting that the people involved in this incident are deliberately trying to cause trouble for me?" Mouri Kogoro came in from outside the door, followed by a tall, middle-aged man in a brown suit. "I saw it downstairs.
Fei Chi's car, I was just wondering if he was coming, but I didn't expect that you, Miss Yueshui, were also here."
"Yes," Mao Lilan stood at the door of the tea room, glancing at Mao Li Kogoro with half-moon eyes, "Everyone is worried about you, but you went to bet on horse racing... Huh?"
The middle-aged man behind Mouri Kogoro smiled and said, "Xiaolan, long time no see!"
"Are you...Mr. Takeoka? Long time no see!" Mao Lilan came up to say hello in surprise, and introduced Chi Feichi and Koshizu Nanatsuki with a smile, "This is my father's former friend Takeoka Isao, who was also a
He was a police officer, but he resigned five years ago."
"I resigned because there was a problem at work. I happened to meet Mouri at the racecourse today, so I came to bother him." Isao Takeoka smiled and raised his hand to scratch his head, "I made everyone laugh."
"Takeoka, let me introduce to you, this is my disciple Chi Feichi," Mouri Kogoro seemed to be in a good mood and said with a smile, "This is Miss Koshimizu, a young female detective!"
"Hello."
"Hello."
Chi Feichi and Koshizu Nanatsuki stood up to greet Takeoka Isao.
"Hello," Isao Takeoka responded with a smile, then looked at Conan and asked in surprise, "Moori, I remember five years ago, you and your wife didn't have a son, right?"
"You misunderstood," Mouri Kogoro smiled and reached out to rub Conan's hair, "This kid is just a child living in my house, just call him Conan!"
Conan was speechless at Kogoro Mouri's introduction. Although it was the truth, he always felt like he was being treated as an outsider. Because Isao Takeoka was watching, he still smiled and said hello, "Mr. Takeoka, hello."
"Okay, everyone, please sit down!" Mouri Kogoro smiled and asked a group of people to sit down, "Xiaolan, Mr. Takeoka has brought you a gift!"
Isao Takeoka put a large box of animal crackers on the table and said with a smile, "If I had known that Maori was so lively here, I would have brought two more boxes."
"Sure enough, it's animal cookies..." Mao Lilan smiled, and when she heard the sound of water boiling, she hurriedly turned back to the tea room, "Wait a minute, I'm going to make tea!"
After Koshizui Nanatsuki sat down, he raised his eyes and looked at Mouri Kogoro, "Mr. Mouri, what I said before..."
"Humph, someone deliberately told reporters these inside stories," Mouri Kogoro said with an unhappy look on his face, "Maybe he had a guilty conscience. Mr. Urano did not commit suicide, but was killed by someone else."
"Suicide?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki was confused.
"Let me start from the beginning," Mouri Kogoro looked at Chi Feichi, "The day after we came back from Kamakura, I borrowed Mr. Urano's phone number, and he asked me to go out for a detailed discussion the next night. You
I seemed to have told you about it when you brought the panda doll to me, but you were busy giving dolls to everyone, so you didn’t come with me that night."
Chi Feichi nodded, confirming that he still remembered this matter.
"That night, I went alone to the izakaya we had agreed to meet and met Mr. Urano. He said that the police suspected that he was related to the death of the art store owner who was killed half a month ago. When the police asked him to find out about the situation, he said in desperation.
He slept at home that night, but he actually went to Akebono Town for a stroll. He was worried that the police would find out that he lied, and the situation would be even worse for him, so he entrusted me to secretly go to Akebono Town to find witnesses who could provide him with an alibi."
Mouri Kogoro spread his hands helplessly, "I have been investigating for the next few days, and Mr. Urano said that he did not use his mobile phone and left the number of the detective agency. He called every night to ask if there was any progress in the investigation, but
I really didn’t gain much here. It wasn’t until the night before yesterday that he called and said that he was desperate. Then yesterday morning, the police found his body in a park far away from his home..."
Nanatsuki Koshizui touched his chin and recalled, "I remember the report said that Mr. Urano hanged himself."
"Yes, but that place is in the park woods. At night, the lights can't shine there at all. When the body was found, there was a flashlight at his feet. In addition, it was far away from his home. As a seven-year-old,
Isn't it strange that a ten-year-old man would commit suicide in the woods of a park so far away at night with a flashlight and a rope?" Mouri Kogoro analyzed, "That's why I judged that he did not commit suicide. The murderer took advantage of his anxious thoughts.
In order to prove his innocence, I also took advantage of the words of despair he said when he called me and took the opportunity to kill him."
Gu/span> Mao Lilan went out with tea and put the tea on the table.
"That's very suspicious," Nanatsuki Koshizui thought, and then asked, "Mr. Mori must have a target of suspicion, right? For example, if you want to know about the investigation that Mr. Urano entrusted you with, Mr. Urano
To feel anxious and uneasy, it must be someone he trusts, someone who has conflicts with Mr. Pu Sheng, or someone who can benefit from Mr. Pu Sheng's death..."
"Yes, Mr. Uramao's nephew, Mr. Arai," said Mouri Kogoro, "He seemed to have had a dispute with Mr. Uramao not long ago. According to the police, Mr. Uramao has no children. If Mr. Uramao dies, then
He will inherit a large amount of inheritance, and when we went to investigate, he seemed to insist that Mr. Urano committed suicide."
"If there is anyone who resents Mr. Urano, it's probably me," Isao Takeoka said suddenly. Seeing Koshizui Nanatsuki and Chi Feichi looking at him, he smiled, "Mr. Urano was arrested five years ago.
He was acquitted again. This incident seems to have been mentioned in the report. The policeman who made a mistake and resigned was me. Although it was out of anger for no reason, I also had resentment towards him, which could also be the motive for the murder.
"
Mouri Kogoro's expression became serious, he looked at Takeoka Nobu and said, "May I ask where you were the night before yesterday?"
Isao Takeoka asked calmly, "When is the estimated time of death?"
"Around nine o'clock in the evening." Mouri Kogoro said seriously.
"It's a pity," Takeoka Isao laughed, "I made an appointment with my friend at 8:30 the night before yesterday, and we were together until midnight."
"I was alone in the hotel the night before yesterday," Koshimizu Nanatsuki recalled, "but around nine o'clock in the evening, I asked the room attendant to bring new towels to my room."
Chi Feichi thought for a moment and couldn't tell what criminals like Gin were saying. He had no alibi, "I'm playing games at home alone."
"I said..." Mouri Kogoro glanced at the two of them for half a month, "What does this have to do with you? You don't know Mr. Urano, right?"
"I want to help Mr. Mori," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a smile, "If I can't commit the crime, then I can help you with the investigation!"
"You don't need to worry about this matter. On the way back, I made an agreement with Takeoka. His help is enough." Mouri Kogoro waved his hand, stood up and walked to the door with Takeoka Isao, "It's only a few days ago."
The genius is injured, so he should take a good rest. As for Detective Yueshui, if you are free, just help me entertain the imps and the wounded here."
"Teacher," Chi Feichi didn't get up, turned around and said, "Arai Kyousuke..."
When he reached the door, Mouri Kogoro was stunned and turned around in surprise, "Mr. Urano's nephew? Do you know him?"
"I don't know him, but on the way here, I called and asked the newspaper that published the report, who wrote the report, and who provided him with the information. He said it was Arai Kyosuke, a publishing company.
"The editor of the agency," Chi Feichi looked at Mouri Kogoro and said, "Arai Kyousuke is considered an insider and knows many reporters. I am here to tell you this."
The corner of Mouri Kogoro's mouth twitched slightly.
I almost forgot that his apprentice is also very energetic in this area. He is not an insider, but he can directly contact the person in charge of the newspaper and find out that Arai Kyosuke is not under any pressure at all...
"Also, if someone is causing trouble or creating resistance for you in terms of public opinion, you can tell me." Chi Feichi added calmly.
"I understand," Mouri Kogoro felt like a child being taken care of by his apprentice in many ways, and went out with a black line, "We went to investigate, you can rest peacefully."
Isao Takeoka followed and asked curiously in a low voice, "Moori, does your apprentice work in a place like a newspaper?"
"No, he is a veterinarian." Mouri Kogoro said.
Isao Takeoka was a little confused, "Veterinarian?"
Arriving downstairs, Mouri Kogoro looked at the red sports car parked downstairs speechlessly, "The young master who is also the chairman of a certain group."
