Chapter 930 Conan: The sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger
Conan came to his senses and avoided Chi Feichi's sight.
It felt even more scary to be stared at by Chi Feichi like this.
"The reports say that when Mrs. Nagakura was interviewed, she always claimed that she believed her son was innocent," Chi Feichi continued, "Mr. Nagakura is a supporter of the village's application for earth heritage, and there are still some people in the village.
The objector, who keeps stating that there are no ghosts and gets emotional when mentioning his son, may be worried that these will affect the success of the application."
“So,” Haihara Ai took over, “when he said that we were ‘sent by them’ last night, he was suspecting that we were sent by the opposition to cause trouble, right?”
“It should be like this.” Chi Feichi said.
Conan raised his eyes and looked at Chi Feichi, "As you said, we have an appraiser by our side..."
"Mr. Sakaki Shokichi," Chi Feichi confirmed, "when I was drinking last night, I observed other people. Mr. Sakaki had the habit of squinting his left eye and only seeing with his right eye. He looked at the wine glass and the drink. During the drinking process,
Appeared more than ten times."
"So," Conan understood, "it should be a habit developed by using a magnifying glass to observe certain objects, and he should have used a magnifying glass for a long time to observe things like this even without a magnifying glass."
"When I handed him a bottle of wine, I touched his right hand. There was a callus on the first joint of the finger on his right hand near the back of the finger. It has not softened yet. It cannot be a callus formed by holding a pen for a long time.
The calluses formed by holding a pen will form hard calluses on the sides of the fingers and on the backs of the fingers, which should be caused by holding a magnifying glass for a long time," Chi Feichi said, "The calluses have not softened much, and he gave up his career less than a year ago."
Conan nodded and asked, "Have you ever tried it?"
"I asked everyone about their occupation," Chi Feichi took out his cigarette case, took a cigarette and bit it, "He lied. He said he was a junior high school teacher and was traveling during the short vacation."
“What about the others?” Haiyuan Ai asked, “Are there any more suspicious ones?”
"Mr. Sangdao said that he was a company employee and complained that his work was tedious and that he had no chance of promotion after working for more than ten years. He should not have lied." Chi Feichi took out a lighter, lowered his eyes and lit a cigarette, "He usually sits down
When he is standing, his left shoulder tilts upward, and his head tends to tilt to the left. He carries a stack of his own business cards and the company's business cards on his body. The joint of his right hand near the tiger's mouth is larger than ordinary people. He should be a salesperson of a certain company.
Department personnel, not insurance salesmen, but order taking or after-sales personnel who sell actual products. When these people answer landline calls and need to record them, they will tilt their heads and hold the phone between their ears and shoulders to free up their right hands.
Take a notebook to record, such a position is really complicated. If you do it right, you should do it. If you do it wrong, it will be a mistake. It is difficult to have the opportunity to rise..."
Conan continued to nod. He had never touched the hands of those two people, nor had he paid attention to them. However, thinking back carefully, he saw that Kuwadao and Ming's heads and shoulders were indeed tilted a little.
Chi Feichi added, "And the way he pours wine. When Mr. Maori and I went to the izakaya, we often encountered company employees going to parties, like Mr. Kuwashima, who raised his hands flat and lowered his body towards the other person.
The action of pouring wine is also a habit of most low-level employees. He said that he has not been promoted after working for more than ten years, and I believe him."
Conan: “…”
He also believed it.
“Okay, that’s amazing!” Yuantai, who had been listening blankly, exclaimed.
Mitsuhiko nodded heavily, his eyes shining, "Just like Sherlock Holmes!"
"No," Conan couldn't help but speak for his idol, half-moon eyes said, "Holmes can determine a lot of information about the other person as soon as they meet, and he can also know whether the other person is lying. There is no need to drink together to find out!"
“Isn’t this not much different?” Mitsuhiko asked.
Conan: “…”
He...he...well, he admitted that Chi Feichi's growth rate was too terrifying. The most he could do was run at a running speed to get close to Holmes. This guy could get closer to him at a speed of several meters in one jump.
Why is the sense of crisis in his heart getting stronger and stronger?
“There is another strange thing.” Chi Feichi turned to look at the base of Yize’s house. “The soil on the base is very new.”
Conan turned his head and looked at it, and said thoughtfully, "When I checked into the Nagakura's house yesterday, I also noticed that the soil on the base of the Nagakura's house is also very new. It doesn't look like it hasn't been touched in a hundred years..."
“And I saw it when I came along the road, at least the houses along the road were not like this.” Chi Feichi added.
"I understand," Mitsuhiko said seriously, "Mr. Nagakura Eihiro was indeed the robber who robbed the jewelry store, but he also had an accomplice, the jewelry appraiser. After he pretended to hold the appraiser hostage and escaped, he returned to his hometown.
, hid the jewelry somewhere here, and then the jewelry appraiser killed Mr. Rong Hao in order to keep the jewelry for himself, but he didn’t know where the jewelry was specifically hidden, so he pretended to be a tourist and returned here secretly at night.
He dug soil under the houses of the Nagakura family and the Otozawa family, because he knew that Mr. Ronghao had a childhood sweetheart with whom he had a close relationship but had passed away, and that the house was still an empty house that had not been lived in for ten years. So, Mr. Ronghao
In addition to burying the jewelry in your own home, you may also bury it under the Yize family!"
"Okay!" Yuantai rolled up his sleeves, "Then let's find the jewelry quickly!"
"Wait a minute," Haiyuan Ai asked, "It's not easy to dig under the ground of a house. Even if no one lives in Yi Ze's house, he can come over secretly and dig, but what about the Nagakura family? The Nagakura couple are often at home, and they will also be there at home.
To entertain many tourists, he would have to dig underground secretly without disturbing others. And if he came disguised as a tourist, he would have to come at least twice and stay for more than five days each time to avoid others digging underground.
He can dig it secretly, or come and stay for more than half a month at a time, but in that case, he will have been noticed by others. Even if he comes in another image, the Nagakura couple who are responsible for entertaining will notice something is wrong, right?"
Mitsuhiko was stunned, "That's right..."
Chi Feichi was silent.
As long as there is one point that doesn't make sense or has no basis, then the whole reasoning may be completely wrong. What's more, he only suspects 'Sakaki Shokichi', the 'jewelry appraiser', which may be an important clue. If we really want to talk about the basis, there is no basis yet.
So it can only be speculation now.
But he still felt that Mitsuhiko might have hit the point this time, but there was still a little problem...
"Then let's ask the villagers again!" Conan suggested sternly, "Ask them if they have noticed any strange people near Otozawa's house or Nagakura's house recently, or if anything strange happened, you can probably determine it.
Is Mitsuhiko right?"
“That’s right,” Yuantai said enthusiastically, “With so many villagers, someone will definitely notice something!”
Bumeixiao: "Then let's..."
Chi Feichi: “Go back and have lunch first.”
Five little devils: "Yes..."
…
After lunch, Chi Fei ran with a group of children again.
Conan wondered if Chi Feichi was secretly looking for clues, but after thinking about it, he might as well take the initiative to find other ideas for solving the case. He couldn't keep following Chi Feichi's rhythm and pace, otherwise it would definitely not be good for him in the long run.
You must not rely on it!
A group of children returned to Nagakura's house after dark, and found that the drinking group had started drinking again at some point. They had a quick dinner together and ran upstairs.
Chi Fei Chi found an opportunity to break away from the drinking group, and returned to the room on the second floor early on the grounds of ‘rest’.
Mori Kogoro is still drinking downstairs, so their men's room is currently suitable for small meetings.
Sure enough, the five children were already sitting neatly in the room, preparing for a meeting to discuss.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the five children all turned their heads.
Haiyuan Ai saw that it was Chi Feichi and asked aloud, "Why are you drinking again?"
Chi Feichi closed the door, "It's been a while since I drank with the teacher."
Even Gentai, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi understood it.
“Uncle Maori must have invited everyone to drink together again!” Ayumi said with a smile.
“Then you have nothing else to gain?” Huiyuan Ai asked.
“Well, what about you?” Chi Feichi walked aside and sat down.
"We asked the villagers here. In the past, the Yoshizawa family was located at the location of the Nagakura family, and the Nagakura family was at the location of the Yoshizawa family. However, not long ago, Mr. Nagakura Yan swapped the houses of the two houses."
Haiyuan lamented, "We dug the foundation directly and used construction trucks to relocate the two houses."
"I think the reason is that the current location of Nagakura's house is the highest point in the village and the best place to see the scenery. It's no wonder that Mr. Nagakura supports the application for earth heritage here, because once the application for earth heritage is successful, Onizawa Township will
It will become a famous tourist attraction, and among all the B&Bs, the current location of Nagakura's house, which is the original location of Otozawa's house, will be more popular among tourists. In the future, guests will not have to worry about staying, and the charges will be comparable to
Others are a bit higher, and the charge this time is obviously higher than other B&Bs," Conan said, looking at Mitsuhiko, "But the soil on the base is very new because Mr. Nagakura swapped the locations of the two houses before.
It’s not like it was dug up, and the villagers didn’t see anyone digging near Otozawa’s house or Nagakura’s house, so Mitsuhiko’s previous thoughts are no longer valid.”
Mitsuhiko nodded and couldn't help but added, "But, I still think Mr. Sakaki is suspicious. Why did he lie and say he was a junior high school teacher?"
Conan was silent. He also felt that Sakaki Shokichi was suspicious. It was intuition and it had some basis. At least it would not make sense for Sakaki Shokichi to lie. Moreover, he was also an appraiser, a subtle profession that may be related to the Nagakura Eihiro case.
"Mr. Sakaki is not the only suspicious person," Haibara Ai looked at Chi Feichi and explained, "After we asked the villagers about the Nagakura family and the Otozawa family, we wanted to see if Ayumi followed the person who was suspected of being Mami last night.
If there are any clues about where the girl walked, and whether what happened last night is related to these, I walked along the path Ayumi walked last night, and Ayumi went all the way to the shrine at the bottom of the village..."
“Then Asami disappeared as soon as she called,” Ayumi said. “I called her for a long time and she didn’t come out. Then I was so sleepy that I fell asleep at the foot of the cedar tree near the shrine.”
"Haihara-san found a gray-white yukata coat in the river next to the shrine," Mitsuhiko said. "The word 'Takai' was embroidered on the collar. It should be the clothes of the Tamai family in the village, but the Tamai family is far away from the village."
The shrine is very far away, and we have to go through the woods, so it is impossible for the wind to blow us there."
"When we were at the shrine, we saw that uncle in a purple suit with a bad attitude," Gentai said. "He was hiding behind a tree, holding a branch and pointing at the village, and he kept gesticulating.
Use your camera to take pictures!"
Conan touched his chin, "He used tree branches to make gestures, which should be to measure or evaluate the buildings in the village..."
