Chapter 1438

The administrator quickly shook his head: "Of course not, our apartment is very security-oriented, and the roof door is usually locked. If the residents here want to go up, they must be accompanied by us."

After thinking for a moment, he pushed the pot in a low voice: "Speaking of falling from the building, I remember that the place that Mr. Yoshida rented happened to be the room at the edge of the fifth floor, next to the alley - he must have fallen from his own room. He fell down. Calculate the location, from his balcony down, it happens to be where the corpse was lying horizontally just now."

Just now after Dr. Yoshimura fell to his death, a large crowd of passers-by gathered around him, and the apartment manager was also alarmed. He trot out to observe the situation, and was then brought over by the police to ask for clues.

"So that's how it is." Megure Police Department quickly determined the direction of the next investigation, "Then let's go to his room and have a look."

A group of people entered the elevator and pressed the button to go to the 5th floor.

In the elevator, the Mumu Police Department raced against time to find the apartment manager and inquire about the tenants.

Just as she was talking, when she reached the second floor, the elevator stopped suddenly and the door opened with a clatter.

Several people paused and looked outside, but the elevator door was empty and there was no one there.

A group of policemen didn't think much about it. They just thought that the people waiting for the elevator were impatient. After pressing the button, they turned their heads and went elsewhere.

The door quickly closed, and the elevator continued to ascend.

Unexpectedly, on the third floor, the elevator stopped again, and the door swung open, but there was still no one outside.

The door is closed again, and the elevator continues to go up.

Moori Kogoro frowned, and couldn't help muttering, "Why is it like being haunted?"

Jiang Xia silently glanced at the closed door. The mermaid drifted slowly just now, and her tail was just caught by the door, and now she is pulling it out with all her strengthalthough ghosts can pass through solid objects, their speed of passing through solid objects is much slower than floating in the air.

However, the haunting that Mori Kogoro refers to should not be this kind of ghost.

The manager is already used to this elevator. Hearing what Mori Kogoro said at this time, he remembered that the elevators in many apartments are different from the one at home.

He explained: "For safety, our elevators are designed to stop on every floor."

"So that's how it is." Mori Kogoro scratched the back of his head, "It's a good intention, but if the person in the elevator is in a hurry, it's too tortured."

Although the shortcomings of the apartment were pointed out by outsiders, the manager seemed to have seized some kind of opportunity and quietly pushed the pot again: "You are right, Mr. Yoshimura may think the same way, so he found a way by himself-I saw it before He went up and down the escape stairs in the building next door."

Several policemen were stunned: "The building next door? What do you mean?"

Administrator: "His room is on the 5th floor, and the height of the 5th floor of our apartment is exactly the same as the roof of the building next door. The balcony of Mr. Yoshimura's room protrudes a bit, and the distance between the two sides is not too wide. For an adult male For him, he could easily jump from his balcony to the roof of the building next door.

"Not long ago, I saw him jumping back and forth there. He seemed to like that road very much and wanted to walk a few more times to get used to it. I went to persuade him at that time, and he said that he just found it novel and would not jump again in the future. .but now it seems

The administrator thought of the corpse in the alley, sighed, and shook his head.

While speaking, the slow elevator finally moved to the fifth floor.

Jiang Xia got off the elevator, and the police and others also came down with a clatter.

The client, Dr. Kanda, came last.

He looked at the policeman and didn't get out of the elevator: "Well, can I go upstairs and change first? I live here too, the room is on the sixth floor, it won't take too long."

When the deceased was found to have fallen from the building just now, Dr. Kanda ran over to check his condition and was covered in blood.

The Mumu Police Department turned around and saw the **** clothes on his body. He felt that even if he acted together with the police, he would only destroy the scene of the fall.

And think about it carefully: when the deceased fell down, this Dr. Kanda was staying with Jiang Xia, so it was impossible for him to push the deceased downstairs, haha.

...In short, it doesn't look like a big problem.

So Megure Police Department nodded: "Of course. Remember to come to Mr. Yoshimura's room after changing clothes. We have other things to ask you."

Dr. Kanda responded and pressed the elevator door close button.

The elevator doors closed quickly, and he walked up, while the others made their way to the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor is room 501. After the apartment manager opened the door, he could see a simple one-bedroom apartment with an area of only 30 square meters.

Pass through the hallway, and soon enter the bedroom and living roomthere is only one room here.

Dr. Yoshimura seems to be staying here temporarily, and there are few things in the room: a bed, a small cabinet, a coffee table and two soft chairs next to it.

The floor-to-ceiling windows of the balcony are open, and the curtains flutter in the wind.

Jiang Xia walked to the balcony and took a look outside.

The Mumu Police Department is also checking here, nodding while watching: "Sure enough, standing on the balcony, the roof of the opposite building is right in front of you, and next to it is the staircase of the opposite building. Walking from here is easier than that elevator. Go up a lot faster."

He remembered what the apartment manager said just now: "People should fall from here."

Conan stood on tiptoe and tried to look out, and suddenly found a dark shadow on the roof of the building opposite the balcony.

"It's a slipper." Jiang Xia noticed the direction of his gaze and said in a low voice, "Didn't you just say that the deceased had only one slipper on his foot? It seems that the other one fell on the opposite floor."

Conan was stunned, and looked back at the distance from the slipper on the roof to the balcony, feeling wrong: "Obviously everyone fell into the alley. How could the slipper be thrown so far."

Moori Kogoro also came to the balcony and took a look. Maybe he felt that the wind was too strong here, so he quickly shrank back.

Turning his head and seeing the small tea table, and the wine and ice buckets on it, he couldn't help coming up with greed, smacking his lips: "This guy has time to drink after being threatened, he's very leisurely."

"Maybe she's using wine to drown her sorrows." Jiang Xia said casually, turning her head to look at the small coffee table.

Seeing the wine on it, he was slightly taken aback: it turned out to be a bottle of bourbon.

Jiang Xia: "..." The boss was actually placed on the table, it's fate.

If Vodka sees this scene, he will probably make up a bunch of messy things in his brain again, and maybe he will target "Bourbon" with a murderous ice cream flavor. Tsk, what a pity I didn't take him with me.

Just as he was thinking, beside him, a certain detective who wanted to get off work more than the police had already started his reasoning.

Moori Kogoro touched his chin: "The key to the deceased's room is in his own pocket. When we came in just now, the door was locked again. There was no sign of a fight in the room, so..."
