The bullet easily penetrated Bupu's walrus' temple, leaving a hole in it that was constantly oozing blood.
If you look closely, you can still see the smashed skull and pieces of flesh scattered on his straight suit.
The cruel and stomach-churning scene seemed like a photo frozen in this closed space.
Mao Lilan, Yuan Shan and Ye, as well as the middle-aged woman, covered their mouths and staggered back several steps.
Hattori Heiji seemed to have remembered something. He immediately took out his cell phone and looked at the number of the apartment management office on the bulletin board in the elevator. He dialed it and waited for the other party to answer. He also reminded Otaki Goro to call the police as soon as possible.
So skilled?
I also knew that this kid must be spreading the chicken plague from Osaka... Ye Gengyi still focused part of his attention on the direction of the stairs.
Although a group of armed robbers suddenly rushed down to kill the witnesses, he did not want to squeeze into the elevator with three detectives and one criminal policeman to watch the dead bodies.
…
20 minutes later.
The investigation team from the Metropolitan Police Department's Investigation Section 1 arrived at the scene and cordoned off the apartment.
Ye Gengyi had already thought of using the residential surveillance loophole to respond to Mu Mu Shisan's complaints, but it turned out that the person leading the team this time was Takagi Wataru.
The person who called the police was Otaki Goro... Because it was a shooting case, during the call to the police, he reported his identity as the Osaka Prefectural Police Department without any concealment.
As a result, only Wataru Takagi came to lead the team.
Is it possible that there is really a conflict between the top brass of the Metropolitan Police Department and Osaka Prefecture?
Here, Takagi Wataru was also startled when he saw acquaintances standing in front of the elevator.
Otaki Goro went up to meet them and bluntly stated the purpose of the group's visit to this apartment.
"Eh? Did you re-investigate Kanyue Shuri's suicide case?" Takagi Wataru was surprised.
"Yes, because some places are very concerning, so I asked for leave and came over from Osaka. Of course, after investigation, it was finally determined that it was indeed a suicide case..."
Otaki Goro gave a brief explanation and brought the topic back to the current case: "Just when I was going to take the elevator back with Mr. Ye and Mr. Mori who came here together, I bumped into this crime scene again. …”
Ye Gengyi observed Otaki Goro's emotions when he spoke.
His attitude was very frank... Well, thinking more darkly, it might be that he didn't know that Takagi Wataru was just an inspection minister.
but……
Although this police officer from the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters seemed to have deliberately ignored Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha who were traveling with him, a certain black man jumped out directly, brushed his presence, and followed Otaki Goro's topic. He recounted how several people witnessed the shooting of the deceased in the temple through the auxiliary window on the elevator door.
He concluded solemnly:
"It looked like he was asking us to witness his suicide."
"Well……"
Takagi Wataru hesitated for a moment: "Could it be just a coincidence? After all, even if the deceased saw when you entered the apartment, he wouldn't know when you left, right?"
"It doesn't have to be us."
Hattori Heiji shook his head, looked at the middle-aged woman aside and said: "Before your police arrived, I learned some information. She is Miss Naha, a resident on the third floor of this apartment. It is said that she will go there at this time every week. Beauty salon…”
"Please!"
Takagi Sheba didn't react at all, but the middle-aged woman immediately said: "That guy... ah... even if Mr. Bu Pu commits suicide, it has nothing to do with me!"
When venting his dissatisfaction, he always said "that guy", but when he was about to get into a case, he immediately turned into "Mr. Bupu"?
Moreover, what I really want to express is not that even if we did not happen to come to this apartment, the suicide of Bupu Walrus could have been witnessed...
Hattori Heiji was a little speechless at this middle-aged lady's failure to grasp the key points. He motioned for Takagi to step into the elevator and asked him to look at the words "Farewell" spray-painted on the elevator door, and then Pointing to the camera that was also covered with spray paint on the elevator floor display board on the right, he said:
"You should understand now, right?"
"So that's it. This case is indeed a suicide, right?" Takagi Wataru said.
Hattori Heiji:"……"
How do Sarada and Kudo deal with these policemen?
He rubbed his brows and explained:
“Why cover the camera with paint if you want others to see the suicide?”
"Maybe I just don't want the suicide scene to be caught on the surveillance camera..."
Takagi Wataru is still insisting on the 'suicide' speculation: "As for you guys witnessing suicide, it might just be a coincidence."
"No."
Hattori Heiji said seriously: "Before the camera was sprayed off, there was a video that clearly captured the person holding the spray paint can using his right hand!"
"Idiot, of course it's the right hand."
Mouri Kogoro interjected: "After all, most people's dominant hand is their right hand!"
You stupid uncle actually called me a fool... Hattori Heiji looked unhappy and retorted with empty eyes:
"Then you should take a closer look at which hand the deceased held the gun."
"Huh? It's the left hand..." Mouri Kogoro was stunned.
"Everyone in the apartment knows that Mr. Bupu is left-handed," the middle-aged woman added.
"It has nothing to do with handedness."
A technical association expert who can use both left and right hands flexibly said: "The monitor is in the upper right corner of the elevator. Standing outside and spraying inward, the right hand is naturally more convenient than the left hand."
Ah, this... Hattori Heiji simulated it in his mind, and his eyes suddenly became peachy:
"Yes..."
Hattori... It doesn't matter that Saraichi-san didn't enter the elevator. You guy didn't notice the deceased's watch...
Conan couldn't suppress the throbbing in his heart, and quietly came to the body and said, "Ah, lie":
"It's so strange~ This watch seems to be a self-winding watch. I obviously heard the doctor say that as long as you put it on your hand, it will not stop, but why did this watch stop?"
He took off his watch and waved it a few times in front of everyone, and the hands suddenly started ticking again:
"You can see it's not broken..."
Are all murderers 'funnels'? I don’t know how to investigate such a crucial thing beforehand...
Ye Gengyi felt very speechless.
To be honest, even though it was just a one-sided statement, after listening to the middle-aged woman describe that the deceased was an unscrupulous securities broker who specializes in defrauding others of their money, he did not intend to take care of the case even if it was just for time considerations.
Unexpectedly, so many clues were left behind...
Previously, Hattori Heiji called the management office and asked the other party to help monitor people who left the apartment during this period. If the murderer was not able to escape quietly, then only the residents living on the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th floors would be left.
