Chapter 859

"Hua Hua!"

It's still raining in Tokyo at night, and it's getting worse.

Different from Gao Cheng, although Maori Kogoro also wears formal clothes, he takes Xiaolan and Conan to the wedding eve party of bad friends in high school, which is commonly known as the bachelor party. Most of the people he actually attends are his uncle's high school classmates. The only regret for Xiaolan is that Fei Yingli has no time to attend because of her work.

"But then again," the uncle was still worried about not being able to be a guest star with Yoko Ono a few days ago. He took a sip of wine and looked out at the rainy night. "That guy in Chenghu seems to be out today, right?"

"Yes," Xiao Lan and Conan drank juice together, and Wen Yan said, "listen to Yuan Zi, it seems that Mr. Chenghu is going to give a speech in the police department today."

"Oh? What a speech? "

Uncle moved his eyebrows.

"The boy is getting worse and worse, but it's strange why he doesn't invite me, the sleeping little Wulang, to be a consultant?"

Conan is eating a meal nearby, squeezing his eyes and looking at Uncle Yu Guang.

Why don't you be a consultant? Don't you know?

In addition to sleeping, most of the time is not very reassuring, officer Mu Mu must have a deep understanding.

Chenghu detective office, Gao Cheng has returned home from the police department, and doesn't mention what happened.

Xiao AI is humming a little song in the kitchen to prepare for a midnight snack. By the way, Gao Cheng, who is watching TV outside, asks, "and then? Why did you come back so late? "

"In a word, there are some problems," Gao Cheng yawned and said sleepily, "and he happened to meet some old friends, so he chatted more for a while."

Sure enough, too much leisure is not a good thing. If it goes on like this, his detective brain will protest. No matter what entrustment, it's better to start tomorrow.

As long as it's not for cats and dogs

"Chenghu!" Chiba rushed to the office downstairs with an umbrella and ran anxiously upstairs to find Gao Chengdao, "please, help me find someone quickly! Otherwise it will be dangerous

"Well?"

Gao Cheng's eyelids fall down with the remote control he changed.

He's talking about starting tomorrow

"That's what's going on," Chiba said to Gao Cheng, sitting on the sofa. "A coffee shop I used to go to often met a girl recently. Just today, she came to me to discuss something and said that she felt very dangerous. She received many threatening letters from prisoners in prison in a year. Now the prisoner seems to be out of prison..."

"Did the prisoner have a grudge against her?"

"It's not clear, but she was afraid to change her job and even moved. As a result, it seems that someone has been following her recently, so I told her to contact me immediately if she saw the other person's appearance or something specific happened..."

Chiba worried: "unexpectedly, just in the short time when I went to the toilet, she suddenly checked out and went back by herself. I heard that she was scared and took my umbrella by mistake

"When I chased out, a man with a hat and sunglasses seemed to take me for the lady, driving from behind without scruple, and almost ran into me... I was too careless. At that time, I didn't ask her address at all. I wanted to discuss this with the police department, but there was no exact evidence, so I had to come to you..."

"So you don't even know the other person's identity?" Gao Cheng asked, clutching his chin.

Doesn't this guy just lose his head because he's a beautiful woman?

It's too simple. The world is very complicated

"Yes, that's right." Chiba bowed his head sadly.

"We don't have to look like this. Let's just find it for you," Gao Cheng pondered. "Since you often meet this young lady in the coffee shop, she should live nearby. Yes, go to the convenience store nearby and ask for some clues."

"Well?" Xiao AI, holding a spoon, poked his head out of the kitchen. "Do I want to go with you, too?"

……

"Wu --!"

Even if you know the general scope, it's always troublesome to find someone. In the rain, Gao Cheng asked and left the convenience store with an umbrella. Suddenly, a loud siren sounded, as if something had happened not far away.

"What happened? Yes, yes... I see! " After making a phone call, Chiba rushed to find Gao Cheng and Xiao AI and said, "someone called the police and said that a young woman in a nearby apartment was involved in a homicide case. Shouldn't it..."

"Go and have a look first."

Gao Cheng frowned and looked in the direction of the incident.

At this time, the police siren is not a good sign. Listening to it, Chiba's face changed. When he rushed to the outside of the blockade, he saw a red car parking in the open space of the apartment building

"Chenghu... It was the car that hit me, or was it a step late?"

Chiba directly across the blockade into the apartment, the scene on the second floor, responsible for the police is Sato.

"Chiba," Sato said in surprise, "aren't you still on vacation today?"

"Yes, but..."

Gao Cheng greets the police investigating outside, puts down his wet umbrella against the wall, and takes Xiao AI into the apartment on the second floor. It seems that the evidence has been collected at the scene. A man's body lies in the living room, and a silent beautiful woman sits beside the bed.

"This case happened 40 minutes ago," Sato explained. "It was just when Takagi and his family received another case report. At about 9:30, the heavy examinee Murakami, who lived in the room directly below, suddenly heard a loud noise and screams. He came up to check the situation. As a result, he found the body, and Ms. toda Meixu, who was standing beside him..."

"Are there cases elsewhere?" Gao Cheng asked.

"Yes, Mr. Maori seems to be over there too," Sato continued, looking at the mute toda Meixu sitting by the bed. "But after all, have you been looking for Miss toda all this time?"

"Because I'm really worried," Chiba nodded. "Before, the victim seemed to regard me as Miss toda, deliberately driving into me!"

"The victim is Mr. Yoshima shinima, 28 years old. He just got out of the traffic prison three days ago, which is really in line with Chiba's statement," Sato thought. "The apartment door did pry open. The car in the open space downstairs was confirmed just now, which belongs to the stolen car

"According to Ms. toda, when she came home today, the victim had pried open the lock and waited for her in the room. As a result, she was pulled in because the other party was holding a knife and could only resist with the umbrella in her hand. During the scuffle, the two came to the living room. When they came back to their senses, sindao had been killed by the falling vase."

"So it's self-defense?"

Gao Cheng's eyes swept through the room.

Because it is a typical single apartment, into the porch on both sides is the open kitchen and toilet, and then inside is the bedroom and living room.

The umbrella of Chiba, which was wrongly taken, was bent badly. It seemed that the scene was just like what Meixu toda said.

As for the victim Xin Dao, the fatal wound was in the back of his head. The vase fell on the carpet next to him. There was blood on the hard part of the bottom. In addition, there was damage to the bridge of his nose. Even blood flowed from his nose. It seemed that he had hit the TV cabinet and left blood on it.

No

Gao Cheng's eyes returned to the body.

The corpse's clothes were all dry, including trouser legs. There was no sign of getting wet. That is to say, this man should have been in this room before it rained. However, when Chiba met Meixu toda at the coffee shop, it rained heavily.

This is not the case at all.

"It doesn't matter, Miss Meixu," said Chiba, comforting her bedside husband. "It's not your fault. I'll try my best to help you."

"Thank you, officer Chiba," Noda said, raising her head with a worried face

"I want to ask," Gao Cheng turned to Sato, "is there any hatred between the victim and miss Meixu?"

"It's true," Sato explained. "A year ago, because someone was drunk and driving out of control and hit the fence, the whole car fell into the lake. Among the two people who were thrown out of the car, one died and one was slightly injured. The driver was charged with the crime of driving a car and causing death. However, because it was the driver who died, there was no prosecution, The slightly injured passenger was sentenced to one year's imprisonment for failing to stop drunk driving and violating road traffic regulations. "

"That's Mr. sinjima, who was in prison a year ago."

"It's not true!" "My brother used to have an accident because of drunk driving. After that, my brother didn't hold the steering wheel any more. At that time, the driver must have been sindo!" she said

"Brother?"

"Yes, it was my brother who was killed. At that time, I didn't believe sindo's testimony, so I raised an objection to the court..."

"It's true," Sato confirmed. "Although the court rejected the appeal, Yoshima shinima was sentenced to one year's imprisonment. At that time, she seemed very angry with Ms. Toyoda who complained."

Chiba listened and said, "it's too much to hate Miss Meixu because of this! There is no reason at all. Even if there is no appeal from Miss Meixu, he will serve the same sentence! Let's have a look at those letters, Miss Meixu

Hello, hello

Gao Cheng looks at Chiba, who seems to have completely trusted tomoda.

Although it's true that she is a beautiful woman, there is also a saying that the more beautiful a woman is, the more deceptive she is. From the beginning, she often appeared in that coffee shop just for the sake of routine Chiba, right?

It's the basic ability of the police to remain suspicious until the truth comes out.

Forget it, you can't ask too much for Chiba. My roommate used it last time

Gao Cheng checks the letter taken out by tomoda Meixu.

All the letters were sent during the sentence, but the contents were poor. They were all like "when I get out of prison, I will come to say hello.".

"It's a little vague, but it's obviously a threat, isn't it?" Chiba looks closely at Gao Cheng and asks.

"It seems that's right," Gao Cheng asked suspiciously, holding two envelopes. "These letters seem to have been interrupted for half a year, and there are" I want to tell you the truth "behind them..." "doesn't that mean anything? It may be that anger calms down at first, and I think about it again when I'm about to get out of prison. "“ Maybe. " Gao Cheng turns to walk out of the porch and looks down at the white bird checking by the empty car. Although it's too early to make a judgment, all kinds of traces here show that Meixu toda, who Chiba wants to protect, designed this self-defense drama“ It may not be very good to say that, but, "Xiao AI leaned against the door wall and saw Gao Cheng come out and asked softly," is it really necessary to continue the investigation? Anyway, that woman is also a victim... "" of course, it's necessary, "Gao Cheng said quietly, taking back his eyes and descending the stairs." the significance of finding out the truth is not just to punish criminals. There are enough truth buried in this world. " On the first floor, the students, who were still preparing for the exam, saw Gao Cheng and said, "I told the police just now. I really heard the sound of TV all the time. It happened before it rained. I was really bored. I thought it was finally turned off, but I heard a scream... This is a beautiful apartment. In fact, the rent is very low, "That is to say," Gao Cheng confirmed, "do you hear the sound of scuffle?"“ Scuffle? "“ Yes, Miss toda and the other party scuffled from the porch to the TV in the living room... "" that's strange, "the heavy examinee scratched his hair." I remember that as soon as the TV was turned off, I heard two heavy rings, and then I heard the sound of shouting. "“ Two rings? Thank you Gao Cheng fell into thinking. So it seems that the victim really came here very early, and probably stayed until toda Meixu came home, and was killed when he turned off the TV“ That, "the heavy examinee was embarrassed," can I ask you for an autograph? "“ Ah, no problem. " Gao Cheng returned to his senses and laughed“ Thank you so much. There should be no problem in this exam! "“ Well Gao Cheng and Zhong separate, holding an umbrella to find the white bird guarding the car in the open space“ Officer white bird, what's the problem? "“ It's Chenghu, "white bird said with a headache." now I'm still contacting the owner of this car. It should be the car that almost hit Chiba. And the camouflage hat and sunglasses were also found in the victim's bag. "“ But is it really the victim himself? " Gao Cheng leaned over the window and said, "in terms of Hsin island's shape, the driver's seat is adjusted too far forward. It's just a woman's position."“ Is that right? " White bird surprised to check again, "so it's really a bit..." "white bird officer," Gao Cheng asked, "can I trouble you for one thing? Hsin Dao has been sending a letter to miss toda during her sentence, but it has been interrupted for almost half a year, and the tone seems to be different. I want to find out the real reason for the interruption of the letter. "“ No, no problem... "White bird subconsciously agreed to come down, when the reaction came, Gao Cheng had already returned to the apartment building. It used to be Takagi's job. Is it his turn now? After a short depression, white bird smiles confidently. This also shows that the city households trust him, right? Finally, I don't feel like I don't exist anymore. It's really good... The rain is still falling, and there's a lot of rain in the drainage ditch. When Gao Cheng returns to the second floor, Sato is going to take Takeda Meixu back to the police station first“ Chenghu, is the white bird still down there? "“ Yes, I asked officer bainiao to find something, "Gao Cheng looked at Meixu toda, who was accompanied by Chiba." because this case is probably not self-defense, but a planned murder. "
