"It's me!" A tall middle-aged man walked up to the blue car, raised his hand to adjust the glasses on his face, turned to look at the blue car and said, "I am the owner of this car. I was driving just now. When I was about to leave the parking lot, I suddenly heard a loud collision from behind the car, and the airbag quickly deployed. I was so scared..."
As he said that, the man looked at the young man standing aside, "Fortunately, the guy over there came over to check and dragged me out of the car. I was the only one in the car at that time. I felt like I was My head was a little dizzy, but it’s much better now.”
The young man was wearing a pair of gray trousers, a white T-shirt and a black stand-up collar jacket. He had a long face and a flat nose. He was wearing a black knitted hat. Under the hat, some light blonde hair was exposed. He looked carefree. Seeing Yumi Miyamoto looking at herself, she frowned impatiently and said, "Sir, have you seen enough? Can you ask them to move the car quickly? There is only one entrance and exit to this underground parking lot, and it is so blocked. My friend He couldn’t get in even if he tried to drive his car in!”
"I'm sorry, please wait a few more minutes until I understand the situation." Faced with the young man's bad attitude, Miyamoto Yumi said noncommittally, and then looked at the middle-aged woman who walked to the red car. , "So, are you the owner of this red car?"
"Yes," the middle-aged woman was dressed casually, holding two paper shopping bags in her arms, her hair neatly tied back, and her face was covered with exquisite makeup, but she couldn't hide her ugly face, "I am the red car The owner of the car, when I went to the parking lot after shopping, I heard the sound of a car crash. When I came over to take a look, I didn’t expect that it was my car that rear-ended other people’s cars. But officer, I was not in the car at all before. I just bought a new car last year!”
Miyamoto Yumi was a little surprised and confirmed, "In other words, didn't you drive and rear-end the gentleman's car?"
"Of course not!" the middle-aged woman replied affirmatively, then looked at the young man and asked, "You said before that you didn't see anyone sitting in my car, right?"
"Who knows what happened?" The young man's attitude was still nonchalant, but he still told the story, "I made an appointment with my friends to buy things at the comprehensive mall, but another friend was stuck in traffic, so I and I My friend went upstairs first, thinking that when he was about to arrive, I would go to the parking lot to pick him up. As soon as I arrived at the parking lot, I heard the sound of a car crash. I thought it was my friend who accidentally hit someone else. I quickly ran over to take a look at the car, and when I stepped forward to check, there was indeed no one in the red car! There was only the uncle in the car in front. I opened the door and looked at the situation, and found that he had no external injuries. My legs were so frightened that I dragged him out..."
Haihara Ai looked at the dents on the two cars and said, "Looking at the extent of the damage to the cars, when the two cars collided, the speed of the latter car was at least 60 yards."
Conan had already arrived behind the red car, squatting down to look at the marks on the ground. "Judging from the marks on the ground, the car behind did not have tire marks left by braking, but instead had marks left by sudden acceleration. In other words, if the person driving the car was not A novice who cannot tell the difference between the brake and the accelerator when he is in a hurry is deliberately accelerating suddenly and hitting the rear of the car in front."
Miyamoto Yumi: "..."
Didn't you say it was nice to see her performance?
"What's worth noting is that on the front windshield of the car behind, the two characters 'die' were spray-painted with red paint. The characters were very large and extended from the window glass to the airbag," Nanatsuki Koshimizu leaned forward. Entering the red car, he observed the paint marks inside, "These two words were sprayed on after the car collided and the airbag deployed, indicating that the prisoner was still sitting in the car when the car collided, and hurried after the collision." He hurriedly spray-painted red letters with paint and left the car before the young gentleman came over. In addition, there were no signs of the car door being pried open, indicating that the prisoner opened the door directly and got into the car..."
Miyamoto Yumi looked at the middle-aged woman and asked seriously, "Madam, didn't you lock the car door when you left? Or, could someone else have taken your car keys?"
The middle-aged woman looked thoughtful, "I was in a hurry to go upstairs to buy something. I don't remember whether I locked the car door, but there was a spare key on the sunshield of the car. The prisoner should have used that key to start the car. Bar……"
"Indeed," Miyamoto Yumi nodded when she saw the car key still left in the car. "The car key was not removed. It seems that the murderer was in a hurry to leave."
"There's another thing that's strange," Conan returned to the red car and pointed at the red letters on the window glass. The childish voice reminded him cutely, "When you see these two words, you will think of the four red paint incidents in the past. Right? But in the previous four incidents, red paint was sprayed on the ceiling of the car, but this car was sprayed on the window glass..."
Haihara Ai leaned forward and looked at the back seat and rear window glass, "And this car doesn't look like a target that the criminals in the red paint incident would choose."
"But the blue car in front... there were a lot of stuffed animals scattered in the back seat. Those toys should have been placed behind the rear window glass. It is dangerous to block the rear window glass. When reversing, the driver is prone to The accident was caused by not being able to see the situation behind the car." Chi Feichi looked at the blue car that was rear-ended in front and said, then turned to look at the middle-aged woman, "Is that right, Mrs. Shigei?"
The middle-aged woman nodded with dissatisfaction, "Yes, you really don't pay attention to safety!"
quiet.
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi stared at the middle-aged woman with wide eyes.
Mrs. Shigei?
In the car accident in half a month, the victim's surname was also Shigei, right?
Conan, Haibara Ai and Koshimizu Nanatsuki, who were actively investigating just now, were also stunned for a moment and cast complex glances at the middle-aged woman.
It seems the case has been solved...
Miyamoto Yumi was also speechless, staring blankly at the middle-aged woman with Miike Naeko, Chiba Kazunobu.
So, the person they were looking for just met halfway?
The middle-aged woman didn't know that her situation had already been fully understood. She was panicked by the silent gazes of a group of people, "What, what's wrong?"
"Um..." Miyamoto Yumi looked at the middle-aged woman, was silent for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Excuse me, are you Mrs. Tokuko Shigei?"
The middle-aged woman recalled that other people had strange reactions after Chi Feichi called her "Mrs. Shigei". She guessed that there must be something wrong with her name or identity, and nodded with confusion, "Yes... I am Shigei." Dezi, does that matter?"
Conan returned to Chi Feichi and stretched out his hand to pull the corner of Chi Feichi's clothes. After Chi Feichi knelt down, he stepped forward and whispered, "Has Brother Chi found enough evidence to testify against her?"
Chi Feichi said without thinking, "No..."
"I know!" Mitsuhiko looked up at Shigei Tokuko and began to reason seriously, "This is an accident directed and acted by you, Mrs. Shigei, right? When you were driving to leave the parking lot, because you saw When the back window of the car in front of you was blocked by the doll, you were so angry that you hit the car without thinking. After you woke up, you immediately spray-painted the car, abandoned the car and left, pretending to be the victim of a vandalized car. …”
Conan stepped forward and was unable to stop him, so he could only stand aside and observe Shigei Tokko's face.
Mitsuhiko's reasoning is completely fine, but the problem is... there is insufficient evidence. He has to think carefully about where the evidence may be, or how to get Shigei Tokuko to plead guilty in the absence of insufficient evidence.
Chi Feichi also followed Conan who was about to leave. He squatted down and poked the side of Conan's face with his finger, and said in a low voice, "Run away as soon as you hear that I have no evidence here..."
Conan felt that the thoughts in his mind were disturbed. He reached out and slapped Chi Feichi's hand away, saying with a speechless expression, "Don't disturb my thinking!"
Chi Feichi put down his hand and looked at Conan's eyes with something strange.
Okay, the chief detective is very capable, but are you sure you don’t want to hear what he has to say?
Conan: "..."
Uh...why does Chi Feichi look at him like that? It feels weird...
"Kid, what are you talking about?" Tokuko Shigei folded his arms and looked down at Mitsuhiko, pretending to be dissatisfied and threatening, "You can't say such nonsense. I am a victim whose car was damaged for no reason. How could this happen?" What if I direct and act on my own? Didn’t your teacher teach you not to talk nonsense and wrong others?"
Mitsuhiko thought that he had no evidence, and when faced with the accusation, his momentum weakened, "But, but..."
Haiyuan Ai's eyes wandered around and locked onto Conan and Chi Feichi, who were standing and looking at each other. He stepped forward and reminded in a low voice, "I said..."
What are these two people doing here? Bring the evidence, hurry up and bring the evidence!
"I originally wanted to tell you that although there is no evidence yet, I know where forensic investigators should look for evidence," Chi Feichi whispered to Conan, then stood up and looked at Miyamoto Yumi and said, "Officer Miyamoto, Please ask forensic personnel to check the airbag of the red car and pay attention to extracting the lipstick."
Conan's face changed slightly, and he looked up at Tokko Shigei in surprise.
Yes, Mrs. Shigei had exquisite makeup on her face. When the two cars collided, the airbag in the car popped out. The lipstick on Mrs. Shigei's lips was most likely stained by the airbag. Later she found that her lipstick remained On the airbag, I quickly faked the scene with spray paint. After leaving the car, I went nearby to touch up my lipstick...
In the previous four "red paint" incidents, the prisoner sprayed paint on the interior roof of the car, but this time he sprayed it on the front window glass in order to use the red spray paint mark extending to the airbag to cover the lipstick mark!
On the other hand, if the lipstick can be extracted from the driver's seat airbag and the composition is consistent with the lipstick on Mrs. Shigei's lips, it can be proved that Mrs. Shigei was sitting in the driver's seat when the two cars collided, and the airbag There are also saliva, dander, and lip lines that may be extracted, which can all be used as evidence!
