Chapter 189 The truth about Nagato Group's phone calls

Maori understood, "It turned out that it was because my favorite sister was snatched away by my most hated friend and I couldn't bear it anymore!" Nobuko sighed, "It's so stupid!" Officer Takagi found a piece of paper in Hidetoshi's pocket, which was a suicide note. It said, "To my beloved Ah Yuki, I am not qualified to marry you. In order to make up for the crime I committed, I chose to die." After reading it, Meguri handed the suicide note to Hinata Yuki who was still sad next to him.

The forensic class sent a detailed report. The knife found at the murder scene matched the wound on Nagato Hiromi's arm, and the blood on the knife was also bright. The hair on the hat and bandage were also DNA tested and confirmed that it was Xiuchen's. Megu nodded, and the forensic continued to report. A 1m-long kite string was found in Guangming's pocket. Conan hurriedly asked, "Is the injury on the back of his right hand also made of that knife?" The forensic shook his head, "No." Heiji reminded, "The knife should have saliva, what's the result? After testing, you should know the blood type." The forensic shook his head, "There is no saliva, it should be wiped off." Conan and Heiji felt that there were too many suspicions, and Qianjun insisted that there was something wrong with the judgment of Xiuchen's death time.

Maori criticized, "What are you talking about? The suicide note is found, and the murderer must be Hideko." Qianjun did not give up, "Miss Hinata, is the handwriting of the suicide note from Hideko?" Hideko nodded, "That's right, it's his. I'll go to Hideko's room to find some manuscripts he left for you to compare!" Megu nodded, "That's great." Xiaolan handed the pen he picked up in the pool, and Yuki Hideko ignored it at all and ran into the room. Xiaolan was a little confused, "Miss Hinata?" Nobuko was very dissatisfied, "Miss Hinata is dead, and she still looks like she doesn't care about her! That vixen really only treats Hideko as a money tree!" Qianjun sighed, "Xiaolan, you chase after her and take a look!" Xiaolan hurriedly chased into the hall and found Yuki Hideko squatting in the corner, sobbing in a low voice, and burst into tears.

Xiaolan planned to go over to comfort her, and Heiji stopped her, "Forget it, don't quarrel at her first, let her calm down for a while. By the way, that pen is for me." Xiaolan smiled, "Heiji, I can't tell you, you are quite considerate!" Heiji blushed, "No need to say more nonsense, give me the pen!" After Heiji took it, he found that the pen was indeed very old. It turned out that a fire occurred that year, and although Hinata Yuki was rescued by luck, her parents did not escape. This pen was the only item left at the location of the accident. Xiaolan was a little sad, "But Hideo, who stepped forward to rescue Miss Hinata, was regarded as the murderer, it was incredible." Maori came over and greeted his daughter, "Xiaolan, what are you doing?"

Xiaolan walked over and Conan frowned, "It's too suspicious." Heiji nodded, "It's really strange." Qianjun was puzzled, "Except for the abnormal death time, where is it suspicious?" Both of them understood why Qianjun insisted that Xiuchen had been dead for a long time. In fact, the real reason was that Qianjun could not feel any life fluctuations on Xiuchen's body, which means that Xiuchen's death was more than 3 days. Conan said, "After the murder, we will catch up at any time, at this urgent moment, do he still have time to take poison and hug the stone and jump into the pool? Also, the most unnatural thing is the suicide note!" Qianjun shook his head, "I think that suicide note should be fine, and Miss Hinata could not make a mistake." Heiji criticized, "The crime was written on it, so it should be written after the murder. Then where did you think he wrote it? Everyone chased him so tightly behind, he shouldn't have time to write suicide note!"

Conan nodded, "There are only two possibilities. The suicide note was forced to be written or forged. It is not particularly difficult to imitate other people's handwriting. Therefore, someone should have poisoned Xiuchen to death and then threw the suicide note into the pool with the person." Qianjun was angry, "Nonsense, I must have died for a long time, and it was definitely not the one who was thrown into the pool after the murder the night before." Conan was furious, "Idiot, then according to you, Xiuchen has been dead for more than 3 days, but have we seen him before the birthday party?" Qianjun was stunned, "It's really evil, it makes no sense!"

Heiji also raised questions, "And after the incident, only when everyone was looking for Xiuchen would have the opportunity to approach the pond. Before the police arrived, no one did this!" Conan also pondered, "In other words, Xiuchen was killed before the incident. Judging from the forensic's estimated death time, the time of his murder may be from the evening to the evening on the day of the incident." After discussing, the three of them felt that they had insufficient information and went to inquire about the news separately.

Guard A and B at the door told Heiji that from that evening, only people entered the Nagato House and no one had ever come out. However, when Heiji went to check the body, the two left the door for about 2 minutes. The two thought that the prisoner must have taken this opportunity to escape from the door. Guard B also remembered something. At 9:30 p.m. on the day of the incident, Nagato Guangming left the gate and said he was going to find Xiuchen. He also searched around the courtyard, including near the pond.

Conan came to the kitchen, inquired about Nagato Hidemon, and asked him what was wrong with him recently. The servants mentioned that Hidemon was taciturn, rarely left the room, and did not have much contact with the servants. The food was sent to Hidemon's room by the butler Musashi. On the day of the incident, he ate more than usual, and even ate all the desserts that he had not eaten normally. Hidemon usually had a small appetite and usually did not eat breakfast, so the chefs were surprised.

Conan asked, "Has Mr. Xiuchen always wrapped a bandage?" Maid Jia told Conan that Xiuchen's bandage would be replaced by Kang Jiang every three days. In fact, no one has cared about the scar that has been wrapped with bandages for 20 years. The last replacement was about 2 days before the incident. The maid also mentioned that a bed sheet was missing 3 days before the incident.

Qianjun ran to chat with Xinzi, the big mouth. Xinzi felt that his younger brother Xiuchen had been a little strange recently, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a moment. Qianjun came to the balcony of Kang Jiang and Guangming's room and was surprised to find some strange marks on it, and it felt like something was hit by it. Qianjun walked to the balcony of Xinzi's room again, and the strange marks were more and more obvious.

The three of them met and felt something was wrong. Qianjun suggested that they simply sneak into Nobuko's room for investigation. Heiji, who was responsible for making Feng pale at the door, "You two are nothing like thieves!" When the two searched, the phone rang in the room. Qianjun hurriedly asked Conan to answer, "Use the voice changer to see if that person is the friend Nobuko mentioned, so that he can know that Nobuko's absence is proven." Conan smiled and took the call, "Hello, I am Nobuko." Heiji gritted his teeth, "You two are really shameless!"

The caller was a man who mentioned that Xinzi was drunk and left a message on the night of the night. Please don’t go crazy if Xinzi was drunk. Before 10 o’clock that night, Xinzi talked for 30 minutes and mentioned the marriage several times, and exhausted the man’s tape. The man finally reminded Xinzi, “It’s okay if you forget it if you are drunk, I don’t plan to break up with my wife! Goodbye!” Only then did the three of them understand that the man was not Xinzi’s friend, but his lover. In other words, Xinzi’s absence proved to be perfect, and the person wearing a bandage that night was definitely not Xinzi.

Heiji still suspected Hideko, so the three decided to go to Hideko's room to check it out. Hideko's room was messy and there were books everywhere. Conan mocked Hieji, "The same is true for your room!" Heiji and Conan looked through the books, and Qianjun left a message on the phone. The editor of Yamada in the literary and artistic era asked Hideko to go to an old place to discuss the manuscript. The time of the message was one day before the incident. The second message was still Yamada, and he didn't wait for Hideko on the afternoon of the incident and complained. The third message was Yamada, and the anger inside became louder. He waited Hideko for 6 hours and didn't see anyone, so this was very ugly.

Qianjun clapped his high-high, "Hikon must have a problem. I said that he had died for more than 3 days. In other words, Xiuchen was dead the day before the incident, so he did not go to see Yamada. But you just don't believe it..." Heiji was also stunned, "Is Xiuchen really..." Conan also nodded, "His death time..." Heiji suddenly realized, "There is indeed a way to do it!" Conan also smiled, "And only that person can do it." Qianjun didn't understand the mystery of the two fighting, and they didn't know why Qianjun accurately judged Xiuchen's death from the beginning for more than 3 days.

Then, the three people sneaked into Kangjiang and Guangming's dormitory to investigate. Qianjun smiled bitterly, and Heiji was completely damaged by Conan. Heiji found the sheets covered with mud. Conan found a swimming cap, and Qianjun found a syringe on the ceiling lampshade. After the three restored it, they evacuated the second floor and returned to the lounge on the third floor to summarize all the information. While speaking, Xiaolan and Hinata walked in, "Ah, it turns out you are here! Heiji, return Miss Hinata's pen to her!" Heiji apologized embarrassedly and returned the pen to Hinata Yuki. Koran stepped forward and grabbed Conan, "It's dark, Conan, go back with me!"

Qianjun looked at the watch and it was already 6:50. Conan acted coquettishly and refused to leave. Heiji stepped forward and handed Xiaolan a list, "That's great, the store is not closed yet. Xiaolan, can you help buy something?" Xiaolan took the order depressedly. Qianjun asked casually, "Who is living in the top of Nobuko's room?" Hinata replied, "It's me." Heiji asked Hinata to invite everyone to her room after an hour, and then grabbed Conan, "Before that, this little devil lends me some use." Xiaolan was angry, "Wait!" Heiji ran out, "After buying the things, go directly to us!" Qianjun smiled bitterly, "It seems that I must go find Uncle Maori!" Xiaolan was so angry, "What the hell are you three doing!"

In Hinata's room, Kogoro was anesthetized by Conan and sat on a chair. He bought all the things used for reasoning, and there was no problem with the details of the reasoning, but Heiji and Conan forgot the most important thing, Heiji touched his forehead, "Evidence, no evidence!" Conan sweated, "I was just spending the game of reasoning with Heiji, and forgot to find evidence." Qianjun was very angry, "Idiots, you two, you numb the uncle before they found the evidence! It's already 7:40, and in 10 minutes everyone will come here, how can we end!" Heiji became angry and scolded Conan, "Really, why didn't you think you were not Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era?" Conan retorted, "You are still known as the number one detective in Kansai!"

The two suddenly figured out a key thing, "So that's it." Qianjun was puzzled, "Do you only know that Hinata Yuki is the murderer? Is the evidence not on the pen?" The two were shocked, "You guessed it too?" Qianjun disdained, "You are idiots! I guessed it since I found those traces under the balcony of Nobuko. On the day I came, when the bandage Hidemon appeared, only the three women were not present. When the case was later released, Nobuko had a clear absent proof

Kang Jiang followed everyone downstairs, and the only one left was Hinata Yuki who stayed on the third floor. Also, when the incident occurred, I planned to go straight from the balcony on the third floor to the balcony on the second floor, and Hinata stopped me. Now thinking about it, the bandage monster below was probably pretending to be Guangming. He might want to take the opportunity to climb to the balcony on the third floor to commit an offense, but was stopped by Hinata, and it ended up falling to the tragedy below. Seriously, it should be self-defense! As for the specific details, I can't reason."

Heiji was shocked, "I really underestimated this weird guy, I guessed it roughly right!" Conan frowned, "Is it self-defense? No, it should be a clever layout." Heiji turned around and planned to leave to prepare things. Qianjun opened the thermos next to the table, "Hey, why is it full of gasoline here? Heiji, have you ever killed someone?" Heiji's black line appeared on his head, "Baga, what are you talking about?" Qianjun laughed, "Looking at your reaction, you have probably been forced to kill someone, at least you have shot and injured someone!" Heiji was speechless. He also had a gun license. It is impossible to encounter danger as a detective. Sometimes he was helpless. Fortunately, such a situation is very rare. Conan also came over, "So that's it, fortunately you discovered this dangerous thing."

Soon, Officer Meguchi brought Takagi, Koran, Nobuko, Kange, Hinata, Musashi and others to Hinata's room and saw the sleeping Kogoro. Conan was quietly hiding behind the chair, and Qianjun stood beside the chair. Meguchi understood a little, "Brother Maori, what are you doing? What's the matter with calling us?" Kogoro said, "I already know, kill Guangming and let Hideko sink into the pond!" Everyone was shocked, Meguchi hurriedly said, "Hey, Māori, Brother Maori! Didn't we judged before? The one who killed Guangming was Hideko, and then Hideko committed suicide by surrendering to poison and throwing himself into the water!" Takagi nodded, "We have already identified that the suicide note was indeed written by Hideko, and that's right."

The phone rang in the room, and Maori asked Officer Meguro to answer the phone, "Let's go and re-enact the tragedy of that night!" Meguro was confused and went forward to answer the phone. On the other side of the phone was Heiji's panicked cry for help, "Someone chased me with a knife, right below your room!" Meguro and Takagi ran to the balcony outside, and saw the bandage man on the balcony below with a knife in his mouth. Officer Meguro was shocked, "Let's go down to save people!" Kogoro spoke to stop everyone, "Wait a minute, the murderer used this method to support everyone away, with the purpose of hiding the terrible facts that happened in the room." Everyone waited for a while, and saw the bandage man climbing downstairs onto the balcony here along the rope and rushing into the room.

Takagi stepped forward to stop him, and the bandage man unbuttoned the bandage and revealed his true face. It turned out to be Heiji was pretending. All of this was a one-man show played by Nagato Hiroshi to frame Hidemon. Megumi was still a little confused, "How is it possible? The murderer had blood sprayed from Nagato Hiroshi, and Guangming also had a knife wound on his body." Kogoro said, "The injury was caused by Nagato Hiroshi himself. The blood sprayed was drawn from his blood with a syringe and then sprayed onto his face wrapped in the bandage. Bandage and hat were both used by Hidemon. In order not to touch his hair, he wore a swimming cap." Qianjun walked forward, "The police department, the syringe and swimming cap were found in Guangming's room, so Officer Takagi could collect evidence."

Meguchi was a little annoyed, "You found such important evidence and didn't even notify our police. It's true! Takagi, hurry up and take someone to investigate." Takagi nodded and turned around. Meguchi came to his senses, "No, Brother Maori. Nagato Hiromiya was killed! Why did he do this?" Detective Maori began to explain the crime process carefully.
