It turns out that this detective actually investigated some clues...
Why didn't you tell me before you ran to see the surveillance camera?
Mumu Shisan sweated and asked hurriedly: "When did that happen?"
Sera Masaki said: "It was the deceased who fell from the building that caused the commotion. After Conan's little brother took the aunt and others together to take the elevator to the top of the building, the elevator did not stop on the way to the top of the building, but it took a long time when it came down. .”
"Takagi, there are two elevators in the hotel, right?" Megure Thirteen asked.
"Well," Takagi Wataru said, "but since a week ago, only one was running because the deceased was the only one living there."
Mumu Shisan looked serious: "It seems... maybe there are still people hiding in the annex."
"Police Department, don't worry," Takagi Wataru said sternly: "Qianba is leading people to conduct a blanket search, and nothing has been found so far."
"To be on the safe side, I'll go inside and search it too..."
After learning that there might be a murderer hiding in the annex, Megure Thirteen was unambiguous on this matter.
Before he finished speaking, he walked towards the hotel.
This is the phone.
Ye Gengyi could only take a bystander attitude towards this.
Of course, if he had a choice, and he couldn't see the scene, he would naturally prefer that Mu Mu Shisan could ask some more questions to the three witnesses.
He also wanted to solve the case early and go back to bed early.
As for the detective...
While waiting for the elevator, I observed that the elevator stayed on the 6th and 2nd floors for a period of time. Didn't you go over to check?
Is it lack of ability? Or is there a problem in itself?
It’s hard to say without getting in touch with this...
"What's wrong with you? You look so ugly?"
At this time, the voice of Mu Mu Shisan on the speaker brought him back to his thoughts.
"It's... it's a rumor."
A middle-aged man said with a trembling voice: "There is something in this villa...it is haunted."
Um? Haunted…
If he said this, he wouldn't feel sleepy anymore... Ye Gengyi perked up and listened attentively.
"ha?"
After a while of silence, Mumu Shisan asked in disbelief: "What on earth are you talking about?"
"We also heard..."
The middle-aged man continued: "Someone once saw an old man using a wheelchair without anyone sitting in it, wandering in the villa in the middle of the night."
"Maybe it was the old man's ghost who pressed the elevator button!"
"ah?!"
Megure Thirteen was still fine, but Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko screamed in surprise.
Obviously, they have not figured out why they encounter ghosts even when they go out to eat cakes early in the morning.
"Hey! I'm talking about you!"
Mumu Shisan couldn't help but interrupt: "Didn't you see no one in the wheelchair? How did you know that it was the ghost of an old man?"
"Maybe it's because of my father..."
Shogawa Toshiko lowered her head slightly, recalling the past, and lamented: "Actually, the person who was defrauded was my mother. After the blow, her body was damaged, and then my father, who had cancer and had little time left, moved away. After entering this villa, we went to Mr. Zhenwu’s door every day to beg him. We didn’t expect him to pay back the money. We just wanted him to apologize to my mother, but... until my mother was discharged from the hospital. He died of illness, and this apology could not come. That night, my father also hanged himself in the room where he stayed..."
"Well……"
Mumu Shisan asked hesitantly: "Is it possible that your father was also in a wheelchair during his lifetime?"
"Um……"
Shugawa Toshiko nodded: "His legs and feet are not very convenient, so he always rides in the electric wheelchair rented in this hotel. I'm afraid it's because of this that there are rumors of being haunted."
"..."
Ye Geng stopped the car in the courtyard of the Aipado Hotel.
Sure enough, eight out of ten calls that affect sleep are answered to shorten your life... It's really troublesome...
He stepped into the hall.
After transferring the call to the hidden headset, Takagi Wataru asked again:
"Ms. Shuchuan, may I ask which floor of the annex your father lived at that time?"
"I remember it was on the second floor, but I'm not sure about the specific rooms." Toshiko Shokawa said.
There is only one elevator leading to the annex that can be used...
Ye Gengyi looked around the hall and quickly found his target.
This is...a through-door elevator.
The so-called through-door elevator actually allows passengers to directly enter the building from the elevator shaft by setting a door between the elevator shaft and the building wall.
Its convenience lies in that it allows passengers to reach the other side of the building in a short time without changing the direction of the elevator.
If you are thinking about it, you can refer to the subway transfer. It is a convenient design, and it can also quickly complete the position transfer after the murder...
As soon as Ye Geng thought about this, the elevator also reached the second floor.
The elevator door slowly opened.
Suddenly, a pungent paint smell that was several times heavier than the inside of the elevator car rushed towards me.
Paint mixed with various dazzling colors filled the line of sight, and then reflected in Ye Geng's half-open pupils.
I saw traces of paint smeared everywhere on the walls of the corridor and on the ground.
There are still traces of dripping paint on the walls, forming ugly spots. The originally smooth tile floor is stained by paint drippings, creating an indescribable chaotic scene, like a ravaged canvas.
Chiba Kazanobu, who was standing in front of the window to get some air, heard the sound of the elevator and turned around.
"Huh? It's Mr. Ye..."
"Hmm. How was the investigation?" Ye Gengyi walked up and asked naturally.
... He had expected to meet the detective here when he heard from Takagi Wataru that a sweeping search was being carried out inside the annex.
"No suspicious persons have been found so far. The only problem is the wheelchair."
"It was still moving when I found it, and there was suspicious fishing line tied to the gap between the front wheels," Chiba Kazunobu said.
Fishing line... still moving wheelchair...
Ye Gengyi avoided the paint that was spilled on the ground and walked around to the side of the wheelchair. After looking at the seats, he thought of the two ends of the annex connected by a through-door elevator.
In addition to the 2nd floor, there are 6th floor... If it happens to be directly above the place where the deceased fell, the murderer's method will be obvious...
Just thinking about it.
The elevator dinged again.
Behind him, the sedan door opened.
Ye Gengyi turned around and looked across the faces of acquaintances, finally landing on a young man wearing a light-colored fishing hat.
Both sides looked at each other.
Sera Masaki's thoughts were interrupted. Looking at the figure in black clothes standing in front of the window with the backlight, his whole body suddenly became tense.
