Chapter 1523 1523 [The detective is unreliable]
Is this... gunshots? !
Okiya Subaru immediately recognized the nature of the voice.
He became alert, turned his head and looked outside the door, and saw that Jiang Xia had followed the sound out of the room and went straight to the stairs, and the kid wearing glasses followed immediately.
Seeing someone running, Okiya Subaru instinctively ran a few steps along.
Following outside, it was only when the cold wind blew that he realized that he shouldn't have come to join in the fun.
But this room is very close to the stairs, and everyone is already on the stairs, so it’s not easy to go back in despair...
Okiya Subaru had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Jiang Xia—but speaking of it, knowing that he is not the real murderer, only Jiang Xia, a detective who can accurately see through the truth, can give him a sense of security.
"..." But he didn't dare to get too close, after all, just now, this detective really left a small shadow on his fragile heart.
…
The policemen reacted slower than them and followed behind.
Several people walked down the stairs from the 7th floor to the 6th floor. I saw Yoshino Satomi sitting in the corner next to the elevator, looking in his direction in horror.
Okiya Subaru looked at her, then looked back in the direction she was looking at, and his eyes fell on Jiang Xia.
Okiya Subaru: "?"
Why did you look at Jiang Xia in such horror? Could it be...
He was startled, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind again.
But soon, his keen observation made him realize that he seemed to have made a mistake—it seemed that what Yoshino Satomi was looking at was not Jiang Xia, but the exit of the stairwell blocked by Jiang Xia.
The brokerage lady raised her hand, pointing at the stairs tremblingly: "In the death circle... He, after he shot just now, ran away from there."
"What?!" Inspector Yasa just ran down in a hurry when he heard such a shocking news head-on.
He turned his head to look at his subordinates, and said angrily, "How did you search the building? How can people hide for such a long time!"
The subordinates looked at each other: They searched very carefully, but they still missed the real culprit? ...something must have gone wrong when a co-worker searched elsewhere!
Inspector Yasa watched them posing as they were about to play football, and his forehead twitched: "...Forget it, let the forensics department come down to collect evidence first."
Then he looked at Satomi Yoshino with weak legs, frowned and said, "Tell me in detail what's going on."
Yoshino Satomi stood up in shock with Mao Lilan's support.
She looked at the stairwell: "Just now Mrs. Nanjo said that the camera screen was too small, so I went down to prepare the projector, because there is only one floor away from the crime scene, and the stairs are more convenient than the elevator, so I took the stairs down.
"Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened the door of the stairwell, I saw and saw that person dressed as 'Death God' was about to step up the stairs.
“He fired a shot at me. I was very scared at the time. I knelt on the ground with limp feet and dodged by accident. After that, he didn’t bother, passed me, and escaped along the stairs.”
Okiya Subaru looked at her, then looked at the open-air stairwell, and finally looked at the two familiar... Barely familiar people next to her.
I saw Jiang Xia and Conan touching their chins with similar movements, lowering their heads in thought, looking like detectives.
The calm news in London, and his own luck, which can't be said to be good or bad, gave Okiya Subaru's courage a little more value.
He quietly moved to Jiang Xia's side: "Do you already know the murderer?"
... If Jiang Xia finds the real culprit, then he will naturally be free of suspicion, so that he doesn't have to be arrested by the police for investigation, and he doesn't have to be photographed by reporters and then published in the newspaper to be seen by Uzo.
The light of hope gradually lights up.
However, at this time, Jiang Xia yawned, shook his head, frowned and said: "Sorry, I only slept for a few hours in two days, and I feel that my brain is rusted."
Okiya Subaru: "..."
do not-! ! Why is it rusting at this time!
Conspiracy.
... Is this another Uzo's conspiracy? !
Jiang Xia glanced at the froze younger brother from the corner of his eye: "..." Well, this surprised look that roared in his heart but didn't dare to show it on his face was also very similar to vodka.
Let him think about whether there are similar guys around, take the time to find out, maybe it is another fresh dessert flavor.
…
The group waited for a while.
Soon, the police officers had preliminary results:
"We found no traces of shell casings and gunpowder—the escape stairs here are built on the side of the building and are open to the air. The wind is strong tonight. It may be that the murderer shot too close to the stairs, and those traces have gone outside."
Inspector Yasa’s head went dizzy for a while: “Then go outside and look for it!”
but…
He thought of the scene downstairs, and his head got bigger: it was really not an easy task to find a bullet in the grass outside, and now it was dark again.
Fortunately, now, there is another clue.
—The projector is ready, and they can play the video of the murderer "in the death circle" and get information about the murderer from it.
…
When the screening was about to start, Conan also sneaked into the room where the projector was located.
When Jiang Xia and Okiya Subaru were talking just now, Conan also heard the movement with the tip of his ears.
He decided to take advantage of Jiang Xia's excessive overtime to increase his efforts to solve the case. Although in fact, Detective Kudo was serious enough to solve a case, but now, after glancing at Jiang Xia next to him, he only felt that his detective skills were not enough. There is room for improvement.
Conan was about to find a suitable viewing position.
But when he passed the bookshelf with various tapes, he turned his head and suddenly found a tape that was pulled out on top of the neatly stacked tapes.
"Ok?"
Conan picked it up and glanced at it, and was surprised—the tape turned out to be warm. This means that it has likely been running in the machine until just now.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Xia noticed the abnormality on his side, and took a closer look—this kind of thing hidden on the bottom shelf, if it wasn't exactly the same height as Conan, the average adult would really It's hard to notice.
Jiang Xia looked through the transparent protective shell of the tape, landed on the tape inside, and looked at the tape recorder beside him.
Then handed Conan a glove: "Don't touch the physical evidence, this inspector seems to have some opinions on us, and he is not as easy-going as the Megure Police Department."
Conan took the glove subconsciously, and then was startled suddenly: "..." Wait, Jiang Xia called this tape "physical evidence"... Did he also understand the method used by the murderer?
I agreed that my brain is rusty today!
At the door, Subaru Okiya quietly looked at this side, and from the changes in the expressions of the two people, he could vaguely get a clue.
