Chapter 280 Small bets for pleasure, big bets hurts the body
"Didn't Mrs. Shibata just say that? Mr. Shibata played mahjong last night and didn't go home until 3:30 this morning.
Mr. Shibata has another appointment tonight to play mahjong with Mr. Yoshikawa and the others, so I think he likes playing mahjong very much, right?"
In the middle of his words, Conan pointed to the TV in the hall and said: "Beside the TV you are watching, there are obviously so many LD software, but there is no LD projector.
Not only is there no ld projector, but there is also a loudspeaker missing next to the TV, so I guess these things must have been lost by Mr. Shibata in a bet, right?"
"Mrs. Shibata, is this really the case?"
Hearing this, Officer Henggou first asked Shibata Kyoko, but when she saw that she was silent, he turned to Yoshikawa Takezo and asked: "Mr. Yoshikawa, did Mr. Shibata really lose a lot to you?"
"No...that's right, Mr. Shibata has been very unlucky during this period, but we didn't deliberately set a trap to trick him. He just had bad luck!"
Faced with the questioning of police officer Henggou, Yoshikawa Takezo finally did not dare to lie and admitted that they gathered people to gamble.
"The morning paper is actually easy to explain. I think it was Mrs. Shibata who found an opportunity to put it on the table afterwards."
Hui Yuan Ai hugged Black Tornado, raised her cute little face and said, "Just ask the police officer from the forensics department to check if there are Mr. Shibata's fingerprints on the newspaper?
I think we can confirm whether Mr. Shibata got this newspaper back by himself?"
(⊙▽⊙)
After listening to Sanxiao's well-founded analysis, everyone present could not help but show dumbfounded expressions.
Are all children today so powerful?
Officer Henggou, who was the first to come to his senses, hurriedly shouted to the police from the forensics department: "Hurry up and get tested! See if Mr. Shibata's fingerprints are on the newspaper?"
"yes!"
"No need to bother, I killed the person."
Just as the police from the forensics department were about to get the morning newspaper, Kyoko Shibata suddenly interrupted their actions.
"I thought that as long as I hid this ring, I could hide it from the public. I didn't expect that there would be so many loopholes."
As Shibata Kyoko spoke, she slowly opened her right hand, revealing a blood-stained wedding ring.
This ring belongs to Shibata Shiro. After he was attacked by Shibata Kyoko with a wooden sword and his head was broken, he actually did not die immediately.
Therefore, Shibata Shiro's body did not fall beside the dining table, but crawled into the study room, preparing to call an ambulance to save himself.
It's a pity that Shibata Shiro was dying from excessive blood loss before he could get the phone. Before he died, he took off the wedding ring and hid it in his right hand.
Before Suzuki Seimei and the others arrived, Shibata Kyoko had already returned home early, and she took advantage of that opportunity to take out the morning newspaper from the mailbox and put it on the dining table.
Seeing Shibata Shiro's body appearing in the study, Shibata Kyoko was also shocked, but she quickly calmed down and discovered the wedding ring hidden in his right hand.
If the police discover this wedding ring, they will definitely suspect Shibata Kyoko immediately.
Since Shibata Shiro died at around three o'clock in the morning, his finger joints had already become stiff. Shibata Kyoko had no way to help him take the ring back, so she could only hide it on her body.
In order to prevent others from noticing the ring marks on Shibata Shiro's left hand, Shibata Kyoko specially put a few band-aids on the fingers of his left hand.
Moreover, Shibata Kyoko also put a photo of Hattori Shizuka when she was young into Shibata Shiro's right hand that was opened, hoping to take the opportunity to disrupt the police's sight.
When Shibata Kyoko finished handling the scene and was about to call the police, Yoshikawa Takezo called again and left a message on the phone saying that Shibata Shiro should go play mahjong.
After hearing the phone message from Yoshikawa Takezo, Shibata Kyoko suddenly felt that letting others discover Shibata Shiro's body first would be a better way to eliminate suspicion on her body, so she secretly hid in the stairwell outside.
The reason why the lights in the room were not turned off was because Shibata Kyoko left in a hurry and accidentally forgot to turn them off.
Because Shibata Shiro likes to play mahjong all night long, he often oversleeps at home.
After Yoshikawa Takezo found out that he couldn't get through on the phone, he didn't think much and went directly to his house to call him.
But something that was beyond Shibata Kyoko's expectation was that uninvited guests like Mouri Kogoro would come to visit first.
So Shibata Kyoko could only wait until all of them entered her home, and then she carried the golf ball behind her back and acted as if she had just returned home.
Of course, there is no need to say more about what happened next.
The murder plan carefully planned by Shibata Kyoko could not be hidden from the eyes of Suzuki Seimei and others.
"Mrs. Shibata, you killed Mr. Shibata just because he liked to play mahjong?"
When Takezo Yoshikawa saw Shibata Kyoko's confession, his face was still full of disbelief.
Isn’t it just playing mahjong?
As for making a fuss to the point of killing people?
"What you said is very light. You guys who win money playing mahjong will naturally not understand my pain."
Hearing Yoshikawa Takezo's words, Shibata Kyoko couldn't help but roared: "Ever since my husband became addicted to gambling, he has been losing money basically every day!
My computer, car, jewelry, necklaces, and even the TV loudspeaker were all sold by him to repay the gambling capital.
My husband also said that if he wanted to sell it again, he would sell the famous sword that my father gave him when we got married.
If he continues to gamble like this, the whole family will be wiped out by him sooner or later, so I can only kill him."
"..."
Facing Shibata Kyoko's rebuke, Yoshikawa Takezo lowered his head with a guilty conscience.
The reason why Takezo Yoshikawa likes to play mahjong with Shibata Shiro is because Shibata Shiro's mahjong playing skills are too poor and it is easy to win more money from him.
Therefore, the fact that this matter has reached this stage cannot be separated from Yoshikawa Takezo and the other May friends.
ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas...
Officer Henggou sighed secretly and said to Kyoko Shibata: "Mrs. Shibata, I can understand your mood, but if you have anything, you'd better come to the station and talk to me slowly!"
Gambling is really harmful!
Officer Henggou has seen many murders caused by gambling during his years as a police officer, so he can really understand Shibata Kyoko's mood.
But a crime is a crime, and Shibata Kyoko must atone for the crimes she committed!
