Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 896: Snow Shadow Village Murder Case 3

At Xueying Wharf, Gao Cheng met several policemen who also came to investigate. The old detective asked several fishermen for questioning and determined that the student called Yuzhu left the wharf on a motorcycle at 5:50.

"Well," the old detective thought, "So that Yuzhu would be very suspicious. Only today he came to the dock on a motorcycle and finally appeared on the campus at 6:20. There was a gap of 30 minutes. ..."

Under the arrangement of the old detective, a traffic policeman rode a motorcycle and went to Xueying Junior High School for verification according to the shortest route on the map.

The old detective always had no eyes at all, and looked rather indifferent, only his face moved slightly when he saw Gao Cheng.

Although he is just a little devil, he is indeed different from ordinary children. After all, he is from the Metropolitan Police Department. He has already inquired about it. It seems that he is still a new generation of famous detectives in Japan, and he is very famous in Kanto.

But this is not Kanto after all...

"It seems that the fish is right," the old detective said towards Gao Cheng, "it will definitely take less than 30 minutes from here to Xueying Junior High..."

"There should be no problem with Yuzhu. If he really leaves at 5:50," Gao Cheng said in the direction of Xueying Junior High. "According to the method I said, we need to be on site before the snow accumulates, but the snow is accurate. The time is 5:58. From here to the scene, even if you ride a motorcycle, it will take at least 20 minutes...

"In other words, even if Yuzhu really rushed to school at 6:10 10 minutes earlier than the others, it would be too late, because at that time it was difficult to enter the campus without leaving footprints and it was impossible to commit a crime."

"This……"

The old detective looked ugly.

"Is it still suicide?"

"Isn't there a lot of people who haven't investigated?" Gao Cheng shook his head. "As long as you know that the weather changes during the cherry blossom festival in this village, they are likely to be the murderers. After all, it's not that a few students will go to Yingxue Junior High School this morning. What a special secret."

"hateful."

The old detective scolded and arranged for manpower to expand the investigation, leaving Gao Cheng's face in thought.

The case that happened in this rural village seemed to be more troublesome than he expected, and there must be some inside information that outsiders didn't know...

"Then what should we do now?" Xiaosuke Asaka Kaosagi asked expectantly.

"What else can I do?" Xiaodu, who is addicted to mystery novels, said with a tense face beside him, "There are three stolen arrows, maybe the murderer's next target is me!"

"what?"

"Isn't it? Except for Haruna and Dongmi, the only two girls left are me and Ayaka," the girl sweared by gripping her fingers as if in a combat version, "I won't die in vain! I will definitely bite the murderer by then. A certain part of the body was shredded with strength to leave the mark of'this guy is the murderer'!"

"Please, have you read too many mysteries? No one said that the target of the prisoner was a girl, and..."

The small assistant looked at Gao Cheng, who was still thinking ahead.

"If he is there, it should be fine, right?"

"What are you talking about, Xiaosuke!" The girl knocked on Xiaosuke's head hard, and said angrily, "We should be here to protect Jodo-kun when we encounter such a bad thing! It's us!"

"I see!" Xiaosuke touched his head grievously.

At Dongmei's house, after Gao Cheng left the dock, he met Dongmei's mother under the leadership of the two Xiaosuke.

"I don't know either," the woman said haggardly, "Dongmi likes witch costumes very much, and she is still looking forward to the celebration. She said she met a friend from Tokyo and was planning to go to Tokyo during Golden Week, but..."

"just?"

"Hasn't Haruna passed away before? I heard that it was a suicide. Since then, she has been a little strange. Although she is still the same in front of us, she seems very lost when she is alone..."

The woman was sad.

"I was a little worried, so I secretly listened to her outside the door, and saw her crying on the table, saying that it was all her fault... If I could ask her at that time, maybe..."

When the few people left Dongmei's house to say goodbye, Xiaodu was also a little depressed.

"That kind of Dongmei would cry... As expected, it has something to do with Haruna. If it is for revenge, Haruna is not very popular, but it is still very popular among boys..."

While speaking, Xiaodu frowned and said, "Speaking of which, Haruna’s father, her parents divorced before Haruna’s birth. It is said that she doesn’t even know what her father looks like, but I have seen it before, probably Half a year ago, Haruna seemed to have met her father. She was a scared man with scars on her face!"

"Is that so?" Gao Cheng's figure paused slightly, "Then, take me to Chuncai's house next time."

Haruna’s house is not far from Aunt Jimei’s Hotel. Gao Cheng met Haruna’s mother under the introduction of the two Xiaosuke, a single mother who is still not very good looking.

After scenting Chuncai, Gao Cheng got the suicide note smoothly.

The suicide note is well packed in an envelope, and it seems that it was originally intended to be sent.

"Misaki Town...Mr. Imai Ryuya?"

"It's my ex-husband, Haruna's dad..." the woman explained.

The woman seemed reluctant to say too many things in front of a group of children, and her expression was silent.

Gao Cheng took out the suicide note in the envelope, and indeed some tears could be seen.

"The color that was supposed to be happy, but it has become an unforgivable color, no more, I only have to die..."

The content of the suicide note is completely confusing, and it looks like a secret sign.

Gao Cheng read it again, then looked up at the sad woman and said, "It may be a little rude, but I still want to ask, hasn't this suicide note been sent out, auntie?"

"Yes," the woman's face was dim, "Haruna and her father sometimes have letters to each other, but they seem to be hiding from me...

This time I probably wanted to post it, probably because my mother was negligent. That's why she wrote a suicide note to my dad who does not live together, not my mother..."

The woman gradually reddened her eyes, covering her nose and mouth, and got up and left.

"I'll get some snacks..."

"It's really not easy for Chuncai's mother to grow Chuncai alone." Xiaodu sighed.

"Sorry," Gao Cheng said solemnly as he watched the woman run out of the living room, "but in this way, Haruna's suicide is worthy of further investigation."

What is the reason for choosing to leave a suicide note to the father instead of the mother who raised him...

Judging from the content of the suicide note, the tone is also a little cold, as if angry.

Causes related to suicide...

Since it was originally intended to be sent, that means Haruna's father should be able to understand the meaning of "color" in the letter.

Gao Cheng put down his suicide note and glanced over the register of guests attending the funeral at the incense case.

"The question is whether Dad Haruna knew the news of his daughter's death and the cause of death..."

Just then, Chuncai’s mother returned to the living room with a snack~www.NovelMTL.com~ Gao Cheng asked quickly: "Auntie, can I leave a name in the register?"

"Ah, okay, okay," the woman was stunned and put down her dinner plate. "At this time, you can taste the specialty of the neighboring town if you don't dislike it..."

Gao Cheng opened the registration book, scanned it quickly, and found an "Imai Ryaya" in the middle. Imai Ryaya of Misaki Town was the same as the recipient on the envelope.

"Auntie," Gao Cheng asked back, "Did Chuncai's father also come to the funeral?"

The woman was distracted slightly, and squeezed out a smile in response: "No, he is often away from home, and I can't contact him."

"Is that so?" Gao Cheng frowned and picked up the registration book. "But there is still his name on it, and his address is also in the neighboring town of Misaki."

The woman looked at the register in silence for a while, and suddenly couldn't help but smile: "Kito-kun is like a policeman, but this person is not my ex-husband, but another Mr. Imai."

"Eh?"

"I work part-time in the Daimaru cafeteria in Misaki-cho," the woman said, looking at Gao Cheng in a daze, and she seemed to be in a better mood. "Mr. Imai is a frequent customer of our store and lived near my house before, so this This time I attended the funeral of Haruna. There are many people in this place with the surname Imai."

"So," Gao Cheng continued, "Does Chuncai's father still don't know about this?"

"Who knows?" The woman lowered her head, "I couldn't reach Haruna before the accident."

Gao Cheng wasn't sure if the woman lied, but he couldn't ask any more. He silently left the gift money and signed his name on the register.

"Koshito Takasei?" Xiaodu glanced at it, "So this is the name of Kioto-kun? I seem to have heard it somewhere...are there many people who call this name?"

"Uh……"
