Chapter 67: Conan saw through the truth about the haunting?
The next morning.
In the small conference room of the Metropolitan Police Department, Shu Yunwen, Conan, Uncle Mouri, Xiaolan, Mitsuhiko, and Genta were sitting on one side, and on the other side was Takagi Nagasuke.
They came here together to take notes.
After Takagi Nagasuke finished asking the questions, he handed the transcript to Shu Yunwen: "Yunwen-san, please take a look at it. If there is no problem, please sign your name here."
"Okay." Shu Yunwen took the transcript, scanned it quickly, and then signed his name.
Takagi Nagasuke took the transcript back and said, "Thank you Yunwen-san, I really caused you trouble."
Shu Yunwen smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing..."
Just as he was talking, suddenly, the door of the small conference room opened, and then he saw Officer Mumu peeking in. When he saw Shu Yunwen, his eyes lit up: "Ah, Yunwensang, it turns out you are in this conference room, okay?"
Could you please come out?"
Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course."
Shu Yunwen stood up and walked out of the small conference room. Almost at the same time, Conan suddenly jumped down from the chair: "Sister Xiaolan, my stomach feels uncomfortable and I need to go to the bathroom."
"Hey?! Conan, are you feeling sick to your stomach again?" Xiaolan watched Conan walk out of the conference room, "It's really strange. Why does Conan have a stomachache as soon as he comes to the Metropolitan Police Department?"
Uncle Maori waved his hand: "Okay, Xiaolan, don't worry about that brat! The brat must have done something bad, so he got upset when he came to the Metropolitan Police Department - he was scared!"
"Ah?" Xiaolan looked at Uncle Maori with a funny face, "Please, Dad, Conan is just a child, how could he do bad things!"
Takagi Nagasuke coughed lightly at this time: "Mr. Mori, could you please explain the details you know near the video game store where Ayumi was kidnapped?"
"sure."
…
In the corridor of the Metropolitan Police Department, Officer Mu Mu and Shu Yunwen walked into a small conference room one after another and closed the door.
The Conan kid followed behind. After watching Officer Mumu and Shu Yunwen enter the conference room, he immediately removed the bug from his glasses and threw it in through the crack under the door.
In the room, Officer Mu Mu and Shu Yunwen exchanged a few polite words before Officer Mu Mu got to the point: "Yunwen-san, I called you here alone this time because I want to confirm with you again where the murderer is hiding. Hmm.
...I believe you should have seen the news this morning. When our police rushed into the warehouse, we found that the three prisoners were lying next to the flames with scorch marks on their bodies. They were all severely burned. Excuse me.
, you were outside the warehouse, did you hear anything?"
"This? I'm sorry, Officer Mumu, I was outside the warehouse gate at the time. Maybe because of the distance, I didn't hear any sound." Shu Yunwen replied with a smile.
Officer Memu nodded and continued: "Have you ever entered the warehouse?"
"No, I've always been outside." Shu Yunwen said, "You may not know that in order to monitor the situation in front of the warehouse, I placed a video recorder at the front window of the car, which should have captured me.
If you need it, I can ask Mr. Matsushita to send you the video tape."
"Then it's Yunwen-sang's fault." Officer Memu thanked him, asked some more questions, and then said, "In fact, Yunwen-sang, after the emergency rescue last night, the three suspects...
This morning, the physical condition has stabilized. Except for a vocal cord problem that prevents us from asking for confessions, we have obtained the confessions of two of the suspects..."
When Officer Megure said this, his tone obviously paused: "... Regarding the three victims we asked about Takemura Takako, Nanako, and Shimizu Rina, they all confessed. However, as long as Yoshida Ayumi is mentioned,
, they would keep repeating, 'There is a ghost in the warehouse', 'The oil drum flew up by itself and covered their bodies', 'There was a demon burning with green flames flying in the air, igniting a fire' and so on.
topic. Well, according to them, they were haunted by a demon burning with green flames, so they were seriously burned."
"In addition, we conducted transcript inquiries last night and this morning on the fourth victim in this case, Yoshida Ayumi. According to Yoshida Ayumi's testimony, she also saw a demon with green flames burning all over her body, and it was that
The devil saved her. Yunwen-sang, what do you think about this?"
"What's my opinion?" Shu Yunwen smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "Officer Mu Mu, you know, I am a spiritualist. So, since they say there are ghosts and demons, then maybe all of this is true.
Right? Maybe there are some kind-hearted ghosts, demons, etc., who really can't stand their cruel behavior, so they gave them some punishment..."
After a pause, Shu Yunwen immediately said: "I'm really sorry, Officer Mumu, I am an exorcist, so I firmly believe that there must be ghosts and demons in this world. If my words bring you
Please forgive me for troubling you!"
"Well..." Officer Memu was silent for a while, then reached out and pressed his hat, "Yunwen-san, you don't need to mind. Of course, from the perspective of our police, we will never believe in ghosts or demons punishing criminals.
If something like this really happens, wouldn’t the existence of our police be meaningless?”
Shu Yunwen and Officer Mumu chatted for a few more words. Officer Mumu looked at his watch, stood up and said, "I'm really sorry, Yunwen-san, I have some other things to do, so..."
"It's okay, just in time, I'm getting ready to leave." Shu Yunwen also stood up.
The two people walked out of the room. Shu Yunwen turned around and saw Conan in the corner next to him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Rolling his eyes speechlessly, Shu Yunwen waved to Conan.
Seeing this, Conan walked up to Shu Yunwen with a smile: "Brother Yunwen."
"What are you doing here?" Shu Yunwen reached out and patted Conan's head.
"I, I'm playing hide-and-seek here!" Conan waved his hand, motioning Shu Yunwen to bend down, and whispered, "Brother Yunwen, look at the case."
Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then turned to Officer Mumu and said, "Officer Mumu, please, can I see the case file from last night?"
Officer Memu nodded: "This is still possible. After all, our success in catching the criminal is inseparable from your help. Well, please come with me."
"Okay." Shu Yunwen nodded.
After Shu Yunwen died, Conan entered the conference room and picked up a bug that looked like spectacle legs from the ground.
Shu Yunwen turned his head, and when he saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched twice - this little devil is really playing eavesdropping again!
Officer Memu brought Shu Yunwen to the Search Class 1, said hello to Officer Sato, and asked Officer Sato to entertain Shu Yunwen.
Shu Yunwen took the backup case report about the warehouse investigation last night, and Conan looked at it carefully. After a while, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Conan's mouth——
So this is ah!
If you explain it this way, those three guys who said "there are ghosts and demons" must have a purpose~
Conan kid suddenly said "Ouch": "Uncle police officer, the scene here is so strange!"
Officer Sato was sitting next to him writing a report. Hearing this, he turned around and touched his unshaven chin: "Hmm? Little devil, did you find anything?"
That's right, this Officer Sato is not Miwako...
Conan said: "The lighting in these photos seems strange."
"Well, that's because the indoor light bulbs are red, so it looks a little weird when photographed."
"That's right." Conan nodded, then pointed to a certain photo, "There seems to be a lot of things piled up at the fire point here!"
"That one?" Officer Sato was stunned for a moment and took a look at the case next to him. "It is true that a lot of things were accumulated at the location of the fire. Although it has been burned, there are still some residues. After identification,
, seems to be some wool, nylon products...well, they are all flammable substances..."
"Is that so?" Conan said with an innocent smile, "Speaking of which, there is a very strange wreckage in this photo..."
"This..." Officer Sato took the photo and looked at it twice, "This should be a lighter, right?"
Conan smiled slightly: "How strange! There is something as dangerous as gasoline here, why do they put lighters next to it?"
"Huh?" Officer Sato was reminded of Conan's words. He was stunned for a moment, fell into deep thought, and then said in a low voice:
"No, they didn't put the lighter aside, but they wanted to burn something. Mr. Mori's incisive reasoning before was that the prisoners wanted to write the name 'Yagi Jiro' on the map. Our police have already
It was confirmed from the prisoner's mouth. Moreover, the prisoner also admitted that they only wanted to commit four crimes, and they would stop after writing down "eight" and "two". Because if they committed too many crimes, they might leave too many behind.
The horse's foot was caught in the end."
"...So, last night, the little friend named Yoshida Ayumi was actually the last victim. We can assume that this is the last case in their plan, and after it is over, they will hide
, Therefore, they will definitely find ways to destroy all relevant evidence. In this case, the clothes they wore when kidnapping and dumping the body will definitely be included in the destruction process."
A smile appeared on Conan's lips, and Shu Yunwen probably guessed the deep meaning of Conan's deliberately instructive hint.
Conan was cute: "Then how will they destroy it?"
Officer Sato said: "Of course it is burned. As long as it is burned, there will be no evidence left! Well... speaking of it this way, the pile of wool and nylon products on the ground should be piled up deliberately by them.
Burned evidence. If the scene is reconstructed, the prisoners planned to destroy some of the evidence in advance. They piled clothes and other items together and poured gasoline on them. At this time, someone took a lighter and lit a fire.
, a fire was ignited, the oil drum was overturned, gasoline was spilled everywhere, and they were all on fire..."
"Then, they found themselves seriously injured and unable to successfully escape. Later, after the police arrived, they compared their confessions and made up a story about ghosts or demons taking revenge, so that the police would think they were mentally ill and could easily escape their crimes.
…”
bingo!
Conan smiled, and then put on a cute look again: "Ah? Is that so? These prisoners are really disgusting! They actually try to pretend to be crazy and act stupid to escape their guilt."
Officer Sato stood up immediately and said: "No, this is an important investigation clue, and I must report it to the superior immediately. Thank you, Yunwen-san, and this kid."
Officer Sato walked away. As for Shu Yunwen, he looked at Conan speechlessly:
"Edogawa-chan, can you even make this up?"
Conan rolled his eyes at Shu Yunwen: "Please! What are you making up? This is the truth based on the final deduction from the crime scene, okay?"
Shu Yunwen was speechless again——
Damn it! I asked Cheng Shi to give them some color and then burned them to a severely disabled state. This is the truth, okay?
You have no idea what happened at the scene, and you finally came up with such a nonsense "truth"...
Are you really okay with your nonsense? Conan-kun?
