Chapter 55 The murderer directly exposed

Chapter 55 The murderer directly exposed

Karate competition scene.

Mao Lilan put on protective gear and a helmet and faced her strongest enemy in this game, Wada Haruna.

And it is worth noting that

Even wearing a protective helmet, the eye-catching spiky hair on her head still stubbornly penetrated through the gaps in the helmet, standing proudly outside.

Seeing this strange scene, most people would have to laugh themselves down before taking action.

But Wada Haruna is indeed Kyogoku’s proud junior.

She completely ignored the mental attack on Mao Lilan's head, showed her extraordinary fighting power, and suppressed Mao Lilan to the point of retreat.

"It was a wonderful battle, but Miss Maorilan is probably going to lose."

Lin Xinyi sighed and felt sorry for it, while concentrating and preparing to watch this wonderful game carefully.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

He took it out and saw that it was the Mumu Police Department whose numbers he had just exchanged at noon:

"Hello? Memu Police Department, what do you want from me?"

"Megure Police Department?!"

The first person to speak was not Officer Megure on the other end of the phone, but Kudo who was standing next to Lin Shinichi.

He was not interested in fighting and could not understand the subtleties of the game at all. He was basically in a daze all afternoon.

At this time, the Memu Police Department suddenly called - this must be another case coming to our door.

Kudo Shinto suddenly became energetic:

"Memu Police Department, is there any case?"

He subconsciously moved closer to the phone and asked impatiently.

"Well" the voice of the leader, Police Department Mu, on the phone suddenly became a little subtle: "Brother Kudo, it turns out you are still here."

Kudo Shinichi: ""

Why do you feel like you don't welcome me very much?

Wait, why did the call from Memu Police Department go to Lin Xinyi? Didn't he always call me directly before?

The great detective finally reacted belatedly:

He, the famous detective Kudo Shinichi, seems to have been used as a spare tire by the Megure Police Department.

"Ahem."

"Since Brother Kudo is here, let's listen together."

"There is indeed a case this time. Brother Lin needs help, and Brother Kudo."

The Mumu Police Department also found that his preference for the new and dislike of the old was too obvious, so he rounded off his words with some embarrassment.

But listening to his tone, it seemed that he was still a little reluctant.

There's nothing I can do about it. It's really not like the Mumu Police Department doesn't miss old feelings.

The main reason is that Minister Odagiri has given him a death order and asked him to promise not to let the mocking title "Japanese Police Savior" appear on TV in the future.

Because of this, the Mumu Police Department directly contacted Lin Xinyi, hoping that he would agree to invite FireWire to join the Metropolitan Police Department and investigate the case as a part-time management officer.

Compared to Lin Xinyi, who is expected to become one of his own, even if Kudo solves the case, the credit will only be his.

At that time, it will only make the name of the "savior" more famous and make the Metropolitan Police's face even more ugly.

"Anyway, it was Manager Yamazaki of Baling Bank who was killed this time."

"The crime scene is at the Seba family's villa, and all the guests attending the banquet have been controlled."

"Brother Lin, come here quickly!"

"Um, brother Kudo, you can come if you want."

Officer Megure said hesitantly.

Kudo Shinichi: ""

Wasn't he beaten several times by Lin Xinyi? Is it so real?

"Memu Police Department, I'm going now!"

"Just wait and see, I will definitely be the first to solve the case this time."

Kudo Shinichi completely misunderstood the reason why he was "abandoned" by Officer Megure, but instead felt a surge of motivation.

""Officer Megure had no choice but to tell Kudo the specific address of the crime scene.

"Let's go!"

Kudo Shinichi turned around impatiently, ready to leave.

"Leave now?" Lin Xinyi was a little surprised:

Your childhood sweetheart is still struggling to play the game!

When you encounter a case, you just run away?

"Let's finish watching the game first. It only takes a few minutes anyway." Lin Xinyi suggested seriously.

"That's fine, you can stay here and watch."

"I'll go out and get the taxi ready first, and we'll meet you at the door later."

Kudo thought Lin Shinichi wanted to watch the game before leaving, so he left him to continue watching while he turned around and ran away.

Before leaving, he told Lin Xinyi without conscious thought:

"By the way, remember to tell Xiaolan that I won't accompany her home today."

"Alas" Lin Xinyi shook his head helplessly:

This great detective's emotional intelligence is actually more anxious than him

Not to mention his childhood sweetheart, even an ordinary friend like him who has only known Mao Lilan for two days has already accompanied him to participate in the competition. No matter what, he should watch these most critical minutes. .

Thinking of this, Lin Xinyi stayed firmly.

He was ready to fulfill his responsibility as a friend, and by the way, he helped Suzuki Sonoko cheer for Mao Lilan.

"Waiting for a taxi?"

Lin Xinyi's expression changed.

Taxi prices in Japan can kill people.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Lin Xinyi pulled up his legs and ran after Kudo:

“Let’s first decide who will pay for the taxi!”

When Lin Xinyi and Kudo arrived at the scene of the crime, it was already evening.

The location of the crime was the villa of Seha Consortium's head, Mr. Sewa Tatsutoku.

This villa is three stories high and covers an area of ​​several thousand square meters. It is magnificent yet elegant and has the exquisite style of an English aristocratic manor.

Being close to such a wealthy family, Lin Xinyi felt his own insignificance and poverty more and more clearly.

But at this moment, he is actually the most eye-catching figure here.

"Brother Lin, you are finally here!"

The Mumu Police Department came forward with smiles on their faces.

He was followed by his follower Takagi Wataru, Lin Xinyi's old friend Xiaomatsu, and a large number of other police officers from the First Investigation Division and the Forensic Division.

These police officers now looked at Lin Xinyi in a completely different way:

Because they already knew that Minister Odagiri wanted to hire Lin Shinichi to join the Metropolitan Police Department part-time with a salary equivalent to that of a police officer, up to the position of Forensics Section Manager.

This is naturally earth-shattering news.

Some people admired him, some were jealous, and some were curious. Everyone looked at Lin Xinyi with different emotions, but it was undeniable that he was now the focus of everyone's attention.

Compared with Lin Xinyi, who is surrounded by stars, the great detective Kudo who has been forgotten by everyone has tasted what it means to be warm and cold in human relationships and the coldness of the world.

"Brother Lin, have you considered the invitation from our Metropolitan Police Department?"

Regarding the latest upgraded employment conditions, the Megu Police Department had already told him on the phone.

Lin Xinyi was also slightly shocked by the eagerness for talent.

In just one day, his position changed from department head to manager, which is equivalent to moving from deputy section level to full section level, which shows his sincerity.

"But let's talk about the case first."

"Human life is at stake. We can wait until the murderer is caught to deal with other matters."

Lin Xinyi looked calm and seemed completely unmoved by the high official's generous salary.

And he was indeed unmoved by this——

What fun can there be in working for a criminal organization as a high-level undercover agent to infiltrate the police?

Therefore, Lin Xinyi's face now only has that transcendent calm and admirable demeanor.

When facing the murder case, he unknowingly entered a state of investment that was like instinct.

Under the secretly admiring gazes of all the police officers, he asked seriously:

"Memu Police Department, can you tell me everything you know in detail?"

"Um."

Memu Police Department nodded and said seriously:

"The deceased was Manager Yamazaki of Bali Bank. He came here in the evening to attend a private banquet hosted by Mr. Sewa Tatsutoku."

"During the banquet, Manager Yamazaki left the banquet hall alone and came to the guest room on the third floor of the villa."

"Later, a gunshot was heard from the third floor. Everyone attending the banquet followed the sound and rushed to the scene, only to find that the guest room on the third floor had been locked with a security lock from the inside."

"When the door was opened, Manager Yamazaki had been shot dead in the room."

"Secret room murder?" This was Kudo Shinichi's first reaction.

"An acquaintance committed the crime?" Lin Xinyi also heard something.

"That's right." Memu Police Department nodded: "The door is locked with an anti-theft chain from the inside, and it cannot be opened even if there is a key from the outside. This is obviously a secret room murder case."

"And if the murderer can use secret room techniques to kill people here, he must have made preparations in advance and is familiar with the internal terrain of this villa."

"Furthermore, he also knew that Manager Yamazaki left the banquet hall at that time and went to the guest room on the third floor."

"This is undoubtedly a crime committed by an acquaintance, and the murderer is most likely among the guests attending the banquet today and the master and servants living in this villa."

"The good news is that the police officers from the nearby police station who arrived first sealed the villa immediately and did not allow anyone in the villa to leave the scene."

After all, Mu Mu is a veteran criminal police officer in the police department. After some explanations, he has analyzed the case very thoroughly.

"That's easy to handle."

Lin Xinyi's expression suddenly became relaxed:

"Since the potential suspect is quickly restrained, it is less likely that he will have the opportunity to destroy evidence - which increases our chances of finding key physical evidence."

"That's right."

Kudo Shinichi also showed a confident smile:

Selecting 1 from N suspects is his best reasoning game.

And the secret room murder case is undoubtedly his home field as a detective.

It seems that he has a great chance of winning this time.

Kudo Shinichi was eagerly looking forward to the next showdown, and at this moment

A bald, fat old man with a cast on his right leg and a wheelchair on his butt appeared in front of everyone with a unhappy expression on his face, being served by a servant.

He is the owner of this villa, the head of the Seba family, Mr. Seha Tundoku.

And when I saw this old Mr. Seba,

Kudo Shinichi's smile immediately collapsed:

"Why is it him?"

A feeling of helplessness came to my heart:

Kudo had just met this old man named Seba Tatsunoku at Suzuki Sonoko's house a few days ago.

At that time, his wheelchair almost fell to the ground due to an accident. As a result, during the instinctive struggle, the old man performed a difficult action of using the "injured leg in plaster" to complete the foot brake.

At that time, Kudo Shinichi discovered that Mr. Seba's leg injury was fake.

At that time, he wondered why the old man pretended to be sick when he wasn't sick.

Now when you think about the murder that "happened" to happen at his house today, you can immediately understand why this old man worked so hard to pretend to be disabled.

"I know who the murderer is in advance."

"There's no point in winning!"

Just like when he clicked on an episode of "Conan" and was maliciously spoiled by barrages, Kudo Shinto suddenly felt that everything was boring.
