A pawn shop owner who is often mistaken for a man, and he also has a particularly bad personality...
Ye Geng thought for a while and asked:
"Officer Shiratori, are all three suspects women?"
Human beings are emotional animals, and they tend to pity the party who is 'weak' in the outcome, and tend to stand in the other party's position and give them more attention and help.
Too many to mention.
Just focus on this current case.
The phrase "Stop talking nonsense and give me your things quickly, or I will kill you" may not be the murderer's cry, it may also be the victim's cry, but he was killed unexpectedly.
"No...it's two women and one man. All three of them had financial dealings with the deceased, so we suspect that this may be the motive for the murder."
Shiratori Rensaburo paused for a moment, took out his mobile phone and looked at the time:
"It's almost done, I guess. The interrogation information will be sent to the interrogation room soon."
He just finished speaking.
There was a knock on the door of the conference room.
After a police officer came in, he placed the audio and transcript of the investigation on the table and said that Officer Sato and Officer Takagi asked him to send it because the investigation in the interrogation room was not over yet and they still needed to go to the archives room for inquiries. The three suspects have no criminal history.
Are the two of them going to the archives room to check the files? Phew, great, I won’t come to the conference room for a while...
Shiratori Rensaburo quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
A few more minutes passed.
Kobayashi Chengzi looked pale and quietly opened the door and walked in.
Haihara Ai and Ayumi followed, but neither of them spoke.
Ye Geng had a panoramic view of the expressions of the three of them, and looked at their pants calmly, but couldn't find any clues for a while.
Shiratori Rensaburo didn't notice the abnormality in the atmosphere at all. In addition, before he had no idea and said to Kobayashi Sumiko who was going to the bathroom, "Don't be anxious, take your time." At this time, he decisively avoided the previous topic and took out The recorder starts playing.
A somewhat shrill female voice came from the speaker:
【yes! I didn't go to see the fireworks last night, so what? Because at that time I was watching TV at home, and so on! I fucking hate that guy so much, if given the chance, I would be willing to replace the murderer and kill him! *&……%￥@……]
"Click."
Shiratori Rensaburo pressed the pause button to stop the swearing that was about to fill the room, and then added to the transcript:
"Ahem...this is the voice of the first suspect, Ms. Kagaya Kina. She took her mother's ring to a pawn shop because she was short of money. The dispute with the deceased was because she couldn't raise the money to redeem it. As a result, the deceased wore it directly. Ms. Kadani Juna's mother's ring said, 'The cheap ring she had before has been mortgaged, and the one she has on her hand is similar in appearance, and the price is 20 times more expensive'..."
Do this?
Ye Gengyi suddenly felt that Sumida Akira's death was not unjust.
"Teacher Xiaolin, are you familiar with this voice?" Shiratori Rensaburo asked.
Kobayashi Chengzi didn't speak, just shook her head.
"Okay then, let's listen to the next one..."
Shiratori Rensaburo turned on the tape recorder.
This time the person speaking was still a woman, but her voice was obviously much duller than the previous one:
[I have some financial disputes with her, but I don’t resent her at all. It's just an antique plate worth 500,000 yuan. If it weren't for the strange smell on it that made me care about it and ask someone to identify it, I might never have discovered that it was just a counterfeit worth 300 yuan! And that woman actually used that plate to feed the cat! Oh hehehe... I don't resent her at all...hehehe...]
So, so scary...
The three children in the Junior Detective Team shuddered.
"The resentment is about to overflow the recorder..."
Ye Gengyi was commenting calmly.
"Ahem..."
Shiratori Rensaburo also sweated, turned off the recorder again, complained in his heart, picked up the note and recorded:
"The second suspect's name is Takimoto Ryouko. His voice sounds a little hoarse because of a cold..."
"Not them."
Kobayashi Sumiko lowered her head and interrupted with a gloomy expression: "What I heard was a deeper and threatening female voice."
"Not at all..."
Shiratori Rensaburo was a little troubled: "There is a third suspect here, Mr. Kodama Ryusuke..."
"Since you're a man, you don't have to listen!"
Kobayashi Sumiko suddenly raised her voice, causing Shiratori Rensaburo's finger to freeze when he was about to press the play button: "Kobayashi...teacher?"
Kobayashi Chengzi lowered her head and said in a depressed mood:
"Sorry, I can't be of much help, so I'd better ask the police to find other suspects, or the moving company's car that appeared at the scene."
"It's probably difficult to find. Officer Shiratiao will contact you if he has any information. I'll go back first."
As soon as Ye Geng finished his cup of black coffee, he stood up and was about to leave: "It's time for you guys to leave too."
He looked at Haibara Ai, Conan, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta.
"Mr. Ye? Why did you say that?" Shiratori Rensaburo was confused.
Kobayashi Chengzi lowered her head again.
"Excuse me……"
At this time, Chiba Kazanobu knocked on the door twice and said inside: "As for that car, I tried to investigate all the moving companies and freight companies nearby, but I couldn't find the car printed on it at all. The two numbers '0' and '9'."
"How could it be?!" Xiaolin Chengzi was surprised.
"Can't you find one?" Shiratori Rensaburo also widened his eyes.
"No, it's not that there weren't any at all, it's just that those cars were not near the scene when the murder occurred..."
Chiba and Shin scratched his head: "Is it possible that Mr. Kobayashi misread the numbers? Since the car body is partially obscured by the wall, '5' and '9' also look similar, right?"
They are very similar, so you admit your mistake? !
Kobayashi Chengzi directly broke through the defense and retorted loudly: "I will not admit my mistake just because they are similar! I will never!"
? ? ?
Teacher Xiaolin, what's going on?
Conan looked confused.
This was the first time that he saw the other party's emotions so out of control.
Hui Yuan Ai had a thoughtful look on her face. She walked to Ye Gengyi who was about to leave in front of the door, pulled his sleeve and whispered:
"Wait a moment..."
"Want a video?" Ye Gengyi asked in a low voice.
Is this your muscle memory!
Haiyuan Ai choked, and bad memories popped into his mind.
The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit solid.
Shiratori Rensaburo hurriedly smoothed things over and said:
"Perhaps that car happened to pass by for something other than official business? Chiba... you'd better investigate it carefully?"
"Of course I took this into consideration, so I also asked the residents living near the murder scene, but none of them had called the moving company or freight company recently."
Chiba and Nobu paused, then continued to add: "Oh, by the way! I also got the contact information of those drivers and tried to get a deeper understanding. They did not borrow the car before and after the incident. Went out..."
Ah, this... Shiratori Rensaburo smiled bitterly in his heart.
Yes, this is not a complicated issue. How could he not know the police's evidence collection process?
but……
Chiba, have you noticed the key point...
