Chapter 245 Entrustment of Evidence

Tuesday, September 10.

In the afternoon, after school, Conan got rid of the three detectives and hurried back to the Mori Detective Agency. He fell asleep yesterday, and heard from Lan that Maori didn't come back until almost three o'clock in the morning.

Maori was not in the office, and Lan and the others hadn't finished school yet. Conan thought about the news about the discovery of a charred male body in Chihuo Village, Gunma County in the morning newspaper today.

Not long after, Mao Li came back with two file bags, and the name of the photo studio was printed on the file bag he could see.

Maori sat on the sofa with his back to the door, put a file bag beside him, turned the other upside down, and dropped a lot of photos on the coffee table, Maori looked at them one by one.

Finding that it wasn't Masaki Negishi who Maori was following that day, Conan, who was lying on the back of the sofa, asked, "Uncle Maori, who is this person? Is he a suspect?"

"This guy's name is Yutaka Abe." Maori casually told about Yutaka Abe.

Five hundred million yen? Then the biggest suspect is him. Conan asked, "Did Mr. Negishi drive there? Or did Mr. Abe drive him there?"

"The police are now investigating the toll booths along the road, but because the staff were not all there that night, they have not been completed yet, and the investigation near Mr. Abe's home is now working during the day, and it has not been completed yet." Maori said, "The Megure Police Department told me that after Officer Shiratori sent Mr. Abe home, he checked his house under the pretext of going to the bathroom, but found no obvious abnormalities, and the Saturday morning newspaper was also taken home."

Seeing that there is a clock in the background of almost every photo, Conan asked: "It's really strange, why does Mr. Abe take pictures with the clock every time?"

"This is to prove that he has no time to commit crimes, because it is very easy to travel back and forth within the country," Mao Li said. The employees lived together, saying it was to mingle with the employees."

Yamazaki came in and said with a smile, "It must be interesting to have a room with floors." At the same time, Lan also came in and said with a smile, "I'm back."

"Yamazaki, you're here." Mori turned his head and said, and then said to himself, "Yeah? Who was I talking to just now?" Then he looked at Conan and asked, "Could it be you?"

"Hey." Conan laughed dryly, lying on the back of the sofa, trying to reach out to pick up the file bag on the sofa and asked, "Uncle Maori, what kind of photo is in this bag?" He said and picked up the file bag , but he took the lower end, and the bag was not sealed, so the photos inside fell out all at once, spilling onto the sofa and the floor.

Seeing Mouri raised his fist, Conan couldn't laugh anymore.

"Crack!" Maori planted a mushroom on Conan's head, then picked him up and threw him into Lan's arms, "Take care of this brat."

Seeing Conan covering his head, Lan asked, "Does it hurt?" Then he put down Conan and blew on his head, then waved his hand and smiled, "The pain is all gone."

Conan was speechless, please, even by appearance, I'm still seven years old, to use the words for a three-year-old child... Then I saw Yamazaki laughing at him, and I blushed a little.

Yamazaki, who picked up the photos, smiled at Conan, then arranged the photos and put them on the coffee table, and asked, "Uncle, these are the photos you took when you came to follow Mr. Negishi for three days?"

"Yes," Maori said, "I didn't expect this to be his posthumous photo.

"

Yamazaki asked again: "Then these photos about Mr. Abe..."

"I asked the Megure Police Department to lend it to me," Mouri said. "By the way, the police found out from the employees of Mr. Abe's company that Mr. Abe suddenly transferred the company's money to his own account more than three months ago." In the past, he also borrowed a lot of money in the name of the company, and finally let the company that was originally good be in debt of more than 300 million yen."

Lan asked, "Why is that? The company doesn't belong to him?"

"I don't know the reason yet, but it can't be wrong that he is short of money." Maori said, "So he has a motive."

Yamazaki said: "So, let Mr. Negishi establish the bet with him, it is also planned." At the same time, he thought to himself, and then he learned from the newspaper that Dr. Sawaki Yoko had escaped from Uncle Mori, so he couldn't wait. This event, which may have been planned long ago, was carried out.

"Not only that, according to common sense, the murderer would conceal the facts as much as possible, but Mr. Negishi was placed on the high platform for the fire festival, and he deliberately left clues to confirm his identity beside him, for fear that others would not know. These behaviors are too abnormal." Mao Li said, "On the other hand, Abe Yutaka took his employees to travel to Kyushu again, and he had a perfect alibi." The photo was scattered, and he said angrily, "Damn it, I made this alibi for him with the dead Mr. Negishi."

Looking at the few photos exposed on the coffee table, Conan froze for a moment, stepped forward to pick up two photos and looked at them carefully. The right hand is swinging the golf club in this photo, and the left hand is eating noodles in this photo. Conan said in surprise, this is a substitute.

"By the way, Uncle Maori, when I was picking up these photos just now, I found a problem," Yamazaki said, "Mr. Negishi's taste." He found four photos and said, "This one is from a golf shop. , this one is in a tavern, this one is in a park, and this one is a coffee shop. By the way, there is another one," Yamazaki took a photo from Conan who had read the photo, "This is eating on the side of the road stall, or walk and eat."

"This is indeed a problem," Maori said, "Let me think about it, he was at the company on Thursday, went home directly in the evening, went to the company on Friday morning, went to the golf supply store in the afternoon, bought a few clubs, and then went to the liquor store , I went home in the evening. On Saturday morning, I saw him in a nearby park. He was swaying around all day. He had lunch in a coffee shop and a bowl of noodles on the side of the road in the evening. Then go home."

According to what Maori said, I divided the photos. In the photos on Friday, the right hand is used to swing golf clubs, sign bills, hold wine glasses, etc., while in the photos on Saturday, the left hand is used to drink coffee and eat noodles. Yamazaki laughs Said: "I thought Mr. Negishi can use both hands." Then asked, "If you only use one side a day, have you ever thought about being a stand-in, Uncle Maori?" He pointed out the discovery just now.

"Sure enough, only one side is used a day," Mao Li said with a smile, "Very good, finally found a flaw."

"Also, Uncle Mori," Yamazaki said with a smile, "I must buy golf clubs for playing golf, and most of them are reserved with friends. If Mr. Negishi doesn't go, his friends will call him."

Maori said, "You're right, I'm going to the Metropolitan Police Department." Then he put away the photos and left with two bags of photos.

"Oh, it's getting late," Lan said, looking at the clock, "I'm going to cook."

After Lan left, Conan asked, "Do you think you can find this person?"

"The key is time, and whether he can testify against him is also a problem." Yamazaki said, "Also, I don't think he will stay in the country and wait for the police to investigate slowly."

"Yes, there is no evidence to prove that this incident is related to him. If he wants to leave, the police will not be able to keep him." Conan said, "But he hasn't taken the insurance money yet, so there should be time."

Looking at the clock, Yamazaki said with a smile: "It's past five o'clock, you can watch here, I'm going home for dinner, call me if you need anything."...

Mei Dai Restaurant.

At around six o'clock in the evening, Maori appeared with a bad face and ordered a dozen beers.

With the beer served, Yamazaki asked, "What's the matter, Uncle?"

After opening a can of beer, Mori said, "That guy Abe Takao actually took away the insurance money, and he's going to fly to the United States tonight." He tilted his head up and drank it down.

Yamazaki was taken aback together, and Yamazaki asked, "He has received the insurance money now, has it been confirmed that the deceased is Mr. Negishi Masaki?"

"The Megure Police Department said that Mr. Negishi Masaki's medical records will not be available until tomorrow morning," Mori said, "but it is almost certain now. After all, if he is alive, he should have seen the news."

"Does the police have no evidence to keep Mr. Abe?" Yamazaki asked again, "Has there been no progress in those things?"

"People near Abe's house said that they slept at home in the early morning and did not see Abe coming in and out. Only people saw Abe going out in the morning, and according to the time, he went to the airport." Mao Li said, " Also, according to the telephone recordings in Mr. Negishi’s home, the police have confirmed the golf incident, and a group of fingerprints of strangers were found in Mr. Negishi’s home, so it is now certain that someone has entered Mr. Negishi’s home.”

"Just someone?" Conan asked.

"Because there is no way to determine when it happened, nor can it be determined that the person was dressed up as Mr. Negishi." Mori said, "The police are trying their best to find that person, but Abe is leaving now. Based on the current evidence, There was nothing the police could do to keep him."

"When will Mr. Abe leave?" Conan asked.

"At ten o'clock tonight, it's a business inspection. It was arranged five days ago, that is, on Friday." Mao Li said, "Damn guy, he planned it early in the morning, and wanted to go abroad before the police reacted."

Damn, it seems that I can only gamble. Conan turned around and said to Miko Miyamoto behind the counter: "Aunt Miko, I suddenly remembered that Dr. Ali has something to do with me, and I want to ask for leave." Before Miko Miyamoto agreed, he ran to the locker room.

"Mom?" Yamazaki went over and asked.

"Let him go and see what he can come up with to swindle evidence." Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "You can just watch."

"See? I understand." Yamazaki smiled.

Conan ran to Dr. Ali's house, borrowed a voice changer, and called Maori with the voice of the Megure Police Department, saying that Mr. Abe's alibi had been cracked, and asked Maori to rush to the airport to testify for the police. Then use Maori's voice to call the Megure Police Department, saying that he cracked Abe's alibi and asked the Megure Police Department to rush to the airport to arrest people. Then let Dr. Ali take him to the airport. ...
