While speaking, the Mumu Police Department approached.

Jiang Xia turned his head and saw that the police department, who was very good at seeking help, came over with a loose-leaf book at some point and enthusiastically handed it to him:

"Come on, you can help me and have a look. This is the relevant information we have collected - if you can find the murderer, we will lead him out, hold him down and take him away, so you don't have to worry about a third murder case."

Jiang Xia: "..."

He looked at his watch and found that he still had a little time to leave the field.

So, like a dedicated detective, he took the booklet and opened a page at will.

The profile of the first deceased was shown on it, and the photo was posted in the upper left cornerit was a bald middle-aged man with low eyebrows and wide eyes, and oily nose, which seemed inexplicably dark and wretched.

Jiang Xia quickly remembered: "Damu Senator?"

A while ago, when I came to visit this building with Kogoro Maori, the Senator Damu once came drunk and shook his hand - Jiang Xia remembered that this man's wife kept a smart border shepherd, and she often lost her way. Squatting at the door of the detective office and waiting to pick it up, it is much cuter than its male owner.

"That's right, Ogi Iwamatsu, councilor of Nishitama City."

Sato Miwako pointed to the building diagonally above:

"The body was found five days ago in the hotel suite on the 67th floor of Building B. The time of death was between 10:00 pm and 0:00 am the previous night. The murder weapon was probably a knife, but nothing that matched it was found at the scene.

"In addition, the deceased was holding a precious small wine glass upside down. It split from the middle and was divided into two parts - at first we thought that this might be Mr. Ogi's pre-death message to imply the identity of the murderer. Who knows that something similar will soon appear in the second case... This is actually a 'token' left by the murderer."

"I remember this incident. I was there last week when Senator Damu checked into the hotel." Jiang Xia thought of the case and felt that the police were still too reserved, so he euphemistically criticized, "Why didn't you find me in advance?"

Mumu Police Department: "..." You can't really call the detective as soon as there is a murder case. The police also want to save face. They have to work hard first, encounter a bottleneck or something, and then ask for advice...cough.

He cleared his throat: "At that time, we actually already had the object of suspicion, and we planned to focus on the investigation. Who would have guessed that before we could ask anything, there would be a second murder case -- the second case, which has nothing to do with you directly. relationship, I forgot to ask you."

Jiang Xia flipped through the booklet in his hand and saw the information of the second deceased:

Ya Ming Yuan, chief programmer of Tokiwa Foundation. In the photo, his hair was unexpectedly thick, and he was wearing a pair of round-rimmed glasses, which looked familiarit was also one of the people Jiang Xia had seen when he came to this building the last time.

Jiang Xia: "..." Why is it not directly related to me? Isn't this a traitor we organized... In my impression, it was because Yuan Jiaming bravely used the company's computer to send information about the organization, and now the computer room of the Twin Towers in Seitama City was included in the organization's must-bomb list.

"The day after Senator Ogi's death, the courier went to Mr. Yuan's house to deliver the parcel and found the door open. He looked in through the crack of the door and saw the deceased lying beside the dining table, unable to rest his eyes.

"Yuan Jiaming died of a shooting, and there was also a small wine cup that was divided into two beside him. Before he died, he seemed to try to fight the murderer, but unfortunately..." Mikazu Sato shook his head, "The speed of the knife, Nothing compares to a gun."

Jiang Xia looked at the information booklet in his hand, which contained photos of the crime sceneYuan Jiaming was indeed holding a silver knife in his hand.

Among the photos next to , there is a set of close-ups for the upside-down wine cup that is a "serial killer token".

Judging from the photo, when the small wine cup was found, it was upside down in a pool of blood. But after picking it up, there was not much blood on the rim of the cup - it seemed to be put there after the blood had coagulated.

"This shows that the one who left the wine glass and the one who killed Yuan Jiaming are not the same person - the real murderer of the second phase case is not the murderer of Senator Ogi, but someone else."

Jiang Xia should have said so.

But he didn't.

... First of all, as a high school student detective who is calm and not afraid to sue, even if he finds suspicious points on the way to "solving a case", he rarely points out, but will wait until the evidence is complete, and then talk about it together.

In addition, Jiang Xia remembered that Yuan Jiaming was actually beaten to death by gin.

The deceased held the knife firmly in his hand, not to fight the gunman to the death, but to use the "GIN" of the silver knife to refer to "gin" - the pronunciation of "silver" is "" ", written in Roman characters is "GIN", which happens to be the code name for gin.

When the gin and vodka were cleaned up, the knife was not taken away, probably because the two were not immediately linked.

Although this is a mistake, it is not a big problem.

How many people in this world would think "the murderer is gin!" because "the deceased was holding a silver object before he died"?

This thought just flashed in his mind, and the next second, a low voice suddenly came from the side, "...GIN.". The emotions contained in it are very complex.

Jiang Xia: "...?"

He turned his head silently and saw Conan-Kudou-kun crawled up to the stone lion next to him at some point, and was condescendingly peeking at the case data in his hand.

"..." Jiang Xia raised his hand, skillfully held Conan by the collar, and lifted him to the ground, "...Don't step on public property."

After a moment's pause, he asked suspiciously, "What did you just say?"

Conan came back to his senses, remembered the name of the person he blurted out just now, and was shocked, and continued the words just now as if nothing had happened:

"...I mean that human life is really fragile. Such a tall and strong person can only die with a hot weapon without resistance."

Sato Miwako looked at him in surprise: This elementary school student has quite an idea...

She came back to her senses, ignoring the little child who suddenly entered, and continued on the topic just now:

"In short, according to various investigations, in the first case, we identified a total of five suspects - Chairman Tokiwa, her secretary, Miss Sawada Chinami, painter Ruyue Fengshui, Yuan Jiaming, and the designer of the building. Hidehiko Kazama."

After a pause, she crossed out Yuan Jiaming again: "Of course, there are only four now."

Jiang Xia politely looked at the photo of the remaining four and nodded: "I will pay more attention, and if I notice something abnormal, I will contact you as soon as possible."

Conan was also on tiptoe, trying to peek at the suspect's photo.

But after listening to Sato Mikazuko, he found that he knew all these peoplethe same people he met when he came to visit the building last week, so he stopped doing useless peeking.
