Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 890: Dessert gourmet

"The cause of death was an impact injury on the back of the head. It should have been a direct hit on the head when the lid of the box was opened, causing death, and then directly locked in the box with the apple..."

"Death time is more than half a day..."

At the recording scene of the "Dessert Talent Show", Officer Mumu squatted over a box full of apples to check the situation, because Conan and Shiliang Jinchun ran over from the auditorium as soon as the incident occurred, and the scene remained the same.

The old man in a kimono was buried in a pile of apples.

"That is to say, the fruit in this box will be used in the show's cooking showdown, but when the fruit was revealed, the body of the chief judge Masadeku Takeki was found, right?" Mumu asked back.

"Yes, we haven't been able to contact Mr. Wu Mu. I didn't expect him to be packed in a box."

"If the chief judge is not there, will the show begin to be recorded?"

Mugure was very suspicious of the show crew, and he would only find the body during the recording of the show.

"Because I just met the detective Jiroto who came to the TV station," the producer and director Ryue Taruoka explained, "It just so happens that we are considered familiar, so we brought the detective Jiroto over and let a well-known detective serve as a special guest. If so, the show can be completed..."

"Um, brother Jojito," Mumu looked tremblingly at Mouri Kogoro, who was not consciously looking next to him, "Then, why are you here?"

"Because my daughter is going to participate in the recording of the show... But, Officer Megome, I think it's better to figure out how the victim was locked in the box first," Mouri Kogoro said musingly, "As far as I know, this The locking procedure of the box is very special. From the time the fruit is packed to the scene of the show, it should have not been opened before..."

"Is that right?"

"Yes," Taruoka explained, "First, Mr. Kasuga, the ingredients distributor, put the selected fruit into the box, put it on the lock, and sent it to the TV station. When I received the box, I would hang another one. After the lock was returned to Mr. Kasuga, then Mr. Kasuga opened his lock and sent the box back again...

"It wasn't until the host Mr. Kenzaki opened the box to see what's inside. This was a plan proposed by Mr. Takeki himself in order to prevent the fruit that became the theme from leaking."

The warehouse where the program group puts the boxes is the third warehouse of Daily TV, a large and messy warehouse with a pile of sundries.

Gao Cheng rushed over as soon as he saw the corpse and walked around the warehouse with his hands for inspection.

There are traces of blood being wiped at the seams and inside of the box cover, which means that the place where the box is placed is the scene of the crime.

At first he was very suspicious of the dispatcher, but according to the staff who went to pick up the boxes at the dispatcher's house, Wu Mu had indeed been to the dispatcher's house, but he left just when they passed by.

In other words, theoretically there is no chance to put Wu Mu into the box.

There must be something wrong with the middle link.

The two newcomers who went to the dispatcher’s house to pick up the box were the director’s assistant Jiang Gudu. It is said that the director had always put the second lock and management box on Jiang Gudu. In this case, if the director’s assistant cooperated with the dispatcher uncle to get it secretly With the first lock key, it is possible to open the box before the second lock.

The TV station warehouse in the middle where the boxes are stored is undoubtedly the most likely scene of the crime.

"Speaking of management, it's actually not watching all day," Jiang Gudu said helplessly when facing the police questioning at the scene of the studio. "The transportation is also handed over to the young assistants. I am just supervising..."

"But you went into the warehouse where you put the boxes alone yesterday, right?" Gao Cheng returned to the scene and said, "I've seen the monitoring at the door of that warehouse. You stayed there alone for half an hour."

"This," Jiang Gudu hurriedly explained when he saw Gao Cheng, "I would occasionally take a look to check whether the lock has been pried or something..."

"Is this true?" Mumu cautiously asked Gao Cheng, "he really stayed for half an hour?"

"I smoked a few cigarettes in it," Jiang Gudu sweated, "Because the TV stations are basically non-smoking, and the assistant is too busy to smoke, so I smoked three or four cigarettes while watching the email. Well, although the warehouse is also non-smoking...

And I’m not the only one who went in, the director also went in, right? "

Jiang Gudou looked at Director Taroka in a panic, and the latter quickly said, "How can I say that I am also the director, so it’s not strange to confirm if the next box was delivered? And the box was on the second place at that time." With the lock and the key in the bank safe, there is no way to open the box..."

"But in fact, Mr. Wu Mu happened in that warehouse," Gao Cheng interrupted, "I have already watched the surveillance video. At around nine o'clock last night, Mr. Wu Mu was the first to enter the warehouse. Never came out again."

"What?!" Everyone changed their expressions instantly.

In the surveillance room, Mumu quickly found a security guard to call out a video verification.

"Sure enough, I said the same thing as Ichiroto. In addition to Mr. Takeki, there will be Director Taroka, Assistant Yutani, and even the deployment staff Mr. Kasuga. They all stayed for about half an hour..."

"Because I care about what Mr. Takeki said," said the dispatcher Kasuga, squinting. "Although I am confident in my own lock, the lock on the TV station has not been checked..."

"But does it take half an hour?"

"I checked it carefully, and I took a few photos to show it to Mr. Wu Mu today. Because it was locked well, I went home directly yesterday..."

The uncle of the dispatcher could not see any problems on his face, and Mumu touched his chin and continued to check and monitor: "Well, until the staff went in and carried the box out the next day, no one had ever entered or left the warehouse. Anyway, it's possible. There are only three of you who committed the crime."

Speaking, Director Mumucha asked, "You stayed in there for about half an hour, Mr. Taroka."

"Because I forgot where the box was placed, I searched for it for a long time," Director Taruoka said anxiously, seeing that he was regarded as a suspect, "The warehouse is big and messy..."

Kogoro Mouri stared his eyes and checked the surveillance video: "I said Mr. Takeki did appear on the surveillance, but no one saw him enter the TV station. I heard that he left the TV station after the meeting yesterday. Now, what is this..."

"About this," Takagi explained, "It is said that Mr. Takeki sneaked in during the group performance of the costume drama last night. Mr. Takeki asked his friend who was the director of the costume drama to make the enemy take his care. "

"That's the case. He wanted to hide in the warehouse for surveillance, but was killed when he found the prisoner."

Gao Cheng glanced over the three suspects.

Director Taroka, assistant director Yuya, and ingredients distributor Kasuga...

The victim Wu Mu Zhengde was in conflict with him. Even if he was invited to participate in the show this time, he still had a headache how to get along with each other.

But these did not affect his reasoning and judgment.

Compared to food shows, this is the realm of his identity as a detective. No matter what the situation, the detective needs to remain calm.

"The only problem is the prisoner's method of unlocking the lock. If the problem lies with the TV station, Mr. Kasuga who went into the warehouse to check the padlock for the first time should not be the prisoner. If there is an accomplice, there is no need to run over and expose himself to surveillance. ...

"As for the director Taruoka, it is difficult to open the padlock without a spare key. All that is left is Mr. Yutani, the assistant who is on the padlock..."

Gao Cheng locked on Jianggudu and asked sharply, "What I want to ask is, were you alone when the lock was locked?"

"You, what do you mean?!" Jiang Gudu trembled, "It's true that I was locked, but didn't the director also checked it afterwards?"

"But this doesn't mean that you can't do tricks. For example, use an imitation padlock to lock it first, and then replace it with a real lock when you pretend to check afterwards, or simply, is it really locked?"

Gao Cheng's words went deep into Jianggudu's heart, as if there had been a giant hand holding Jianggudu in his hand.

"I have checked the warehouse carefully, and there is no trace of soot. It is even more strange to check whether there are any signs of picking the lock. Even if the padlock does not have an alarm mechanism, no one should leave any signs of picking the lock?

"There is only one truth. You went in specially after the director, in fact, to open the box to check the theme fruit inside, and to finish off your own hands and feet to avoid being discovered when you really open the box.

In fact, in addition to imitation locks, it is not difficult to make a padlock look like it is locked, which is not a trick. As long as you continue to lock it afterwards, you don’t need a key to lock it. "

Gao Cheng beckoned and asked the staff to bring a juicer from the warehouse.

"Of course there is evidence. The original box was filled with apples, and if Mr. Takeki was stuffed, there would be many more apples. The reason why you stayed in the warehouse for so long should be to deal with the extra apples, right? ?

"Because the three of you did not bring anything when entering and leaving the warehouse in the surveillance, so I looked for it specially and luckily found this uncleaned juicer with some apple residue left on it..."

"Haha," Jiang Gudu said with a sweaty smile, "Are you trying to say that the apple was juiced and drunk by me? What kind of evidence is this? Even if it is true, it has already been digested in my stomach..."

"Idiot," Gao Cheng said, raising his eyelids, "Food is not digested in the stomach. You haven't been to the toilet since the beginning of the recording, and the high-quality apple seeds you drank have not been discharged yet. ..."

Gao Cheng didn't want to continue to give this guy popular science food throughout the digestion process.

Generally speaking ~www.NovelMTL.com~ food will stay in the human body for a long time, mainly in the intestines.

When leaving the monitoring room, Yuanzi always felt something was wrong, and couldn't help asking: "Is there anything else waiting for him?"

"Yes, leave it to the police."

Gao Cheng was full of sweets in his mind, and quickly interrupted the topic: "Okay, let's have a meal first."

For him, the case has been solved, because of monitoring, there is no difficulty, and the system has also settled in advance.

This time I got a "dessert" card, which seemed to come from the victim Mr. Takeki, who directly promoted his "snack" item to the proficiency level. Of course, most of the knowledge is in the category of desserts, and the content is concentrated on the production to the appraisal and comment. There is a trend towards dessert gourmets.

"Please wait, Detective Joto!"

Director Taruoka suddenly panted and chased after him.

"Although this happened this time, in fact, we have already planned to find someone to replace Mr. Takeki. After all, he is so old...If possible, can you serve as a resident guest? Please? !"

Taruoka folded his legs and bends down deeply.

"For the sake of dessert!"
