Furuya Rei: The sun falls into the arms of the moon

Chapter 161: Solving a puzzle at Polo Cafe - Assassination

"Dianwu, Dianwu, cheer up. Dianwu."

Lingzi looked over there, frowned, and then let go.

Hattori Heiji stood up and said, "No."

Conan ran near her, "Don't touch him."

Hattori Heiji squatted down, "This is a murder case. You must not touch anything randomly and destroy the scene."

“Uh…uh…”

Amuro Toru half-knelt and looked at him, "It looks like an attempted murder case."

Amuro Toru stood up and looked at Xiao Zi, "Miss Xiao Zi, please call the police immediately and call an ambulance."

"Huh? Okay."

Hattori Heiji looked at the murder weapon on the ground, "Being stabbed by such a long sashimi knife, I thought I would die on the spot."

"But I don't think the police need to be called in. When the guy was stabbed, blood splattered on my cheek."

Hattori Heiji pointed at the blood on his face.

Conan also took off his glasses, "There's blood splattered on my glasses too."

Hattori Heiji looked at the people over there, "So, the hands and cuffs of the criminal who did it must have been stained with the blood splattered by this guy."

Several people raised their hands, but there was no trace of blood.

"Hey, hey."

"Hey, hey, no."

"Why didn't anyone get splattered with blood?"

Amuro Toru blinked, feeling something was not right, and looked at the guest standing at the door behind him, "Hmm? The gentleman over there who wants to leave the scene quietly, could you please also extend your hand so that we can see it?"

He raised his hands. "Hey, no. I'm not trying to sneak out of here."

"This guy doesn't have blood on his hands."

"here we go again."

"Really? Why is it always like this?"

"I'm trying to convince you, I think you're really cursed."

Lingzi smiled, sat on the stool and raised his eyebrows.

She remembered that there seemed to be something different.

Kazuha called Hattori, "Ah, don't go to Polo, why? We just prepared uncle's dinner and were about to leave to look for you."

Hattori Heiji was a little anxious, "Well, actually, there is a killer here..."

How nice it would be if I could see it with my own eyes...

"Some people are making movies, and some people are making films."

"Really? I want to see it, too."

"Idiot, you are absolutely not allowed to come over here. We are filming a super scary horror movie. I will come to find you as soon as I am done here. You just go over there and wait for us."

He Ye and Xiao Lan went downstairs, but He Ye pushed Xiao Lan and left first, "I, we should go over there first?"

"Well, he, he said he would come over later."

"Oh, whoops? Is Ratchet a medical drama?"

"Okay, let's go. I'm really looking forward to seeing the scenery."

Lingzi shook his neck. It was impossible for him to confess successfully today.

Officer Megure came over and learned about the situation at the scene. "So that's what happened. Someone had tied a thin wire around the power plug of the victim, Mr. Anzai Norihiro's laptop."

"So when the victim plugged the plug into the socket, it caused a short circuit, causing a power outage in the cafe."

"Then someone in the store took advantage of the darkness and stabbed the victim."

"Yes, that should be correct."

"But the hands and cuffs of the victim's three companions and other customers who were in the store at the time did not have any blood on them."

"Of course, Conan and Hattori, who were also in the store at the time, as well as the clerk Ms. Kozue, Mr. Amuro and Ms. Reiko, all had no blood on their hands."

"But clearly, Hattori and Conan's faces were stained with splattered blood. The table where they were sitting was also stained with the victim's blood."

Inspector Megure looked at the bag on the ground. "Hmm... did the victim usually carry this laptop with him?"

Yamashita nodded, "Oh, yes. I usually put it in that backpack."

Nagatsuka put his hands in his pockets and looked at him, "But, he just left it somewhere like the club office, so anyone should be able to tamper with it."

Mr. Daji spread his hands and said helplessly, "Well, after all, that guy has too many enemies."

"enemy?"

Nagatsuka was a little nervous. "He, he often gets into personal trouble because he touches other people's girlfriends."

Daji looked at his girlfriend beside him, "In fact, he has flirted with my girlfriend Xiaowei more than once."

Yamashita Yui looked at him and said disapprovingly, "Hey, I told you, that's because we are childhood friends, we were just joking."

"But that guy's father is a congressman. So I heard that he often helps him to settle things privately, clean up his messes."

Gao Mu looked at the crime scene over there, "By the way, I heard that the victim was sitting in this position before the power outage. I wonder where you were sitting at the time?"

Yamashita Wei walked over and pointed, "I, I was sitting opposite him, on this sofa."

Nagatsuka walked over and looked at the chair next to the fallen stool, "As for me, I sat on the chair next to Anqi."

"I see. What about you, Mr. Daqi?"

"Although I arrived earlier than everyone else, I stayed in the bathroom after putting my bag on the sofa because I had been feeling uncomfortable in my stomach since noon today."

"Oh, is the person in the toilet?"

"Then you are the only one who can wash away the blood stains even if they are stained."

Daji looked at him, "Hey, hey, if you doubt me, then investigate. Isn't there something called a reaction that can't be washed off with just water?"

Amuro Toru looked at him. "Luminol, luminol is a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound. If you mix it with hydrogen peroxide and spray it, it will cause the area stained with blood to emit a bluish-white light."

"Although I think even if we investigate Mr. Daiji, there won't be any luminol reaction."

"Because I was a little concerned, I checked the surveillance camera footage before the police arrived."

"He was the first to arrive at the Polo store, and he never came out after entering the restroom. Then came Mr. Anqi and Ms. Yamashita, and finally Mr. Nagatsuka arrived a little later."

"Then when the three were about to use their laptops to watch the birthday video, a power outage occurred."

"Until the recording was stopped due to a power outage, the bathroom door was never opened once, so I don't think he knew who was sitting there."

Gao Mu looked at the small window above the door, "Oh, oh. But, there is a small window on the door of the toilet, right?"

"Ah, what are you talking about? This small window is made of frosted glass. You can't see what's going on inside the store from here."

"Let me see, it is true."

Inspector Megure leaned over to take a look and saw that it was indeed the case.

Lingzi drank the orange juice in front of her, her eyes following Amuro Toru.
