Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 102: The Triplets Incident

"Triplets?"

At the scene of the murder, all related parties gathered together, and the sudden appearance of two brothers made things complicated again.

"From this point of view, the murderer should be one of you three." Gao Cheng said energetically in advance.

"What are you talking about?" The second child in a suit asked inexplicably, "What murderer?"

"Your father Tetsuji Tomizawa was murdered last night." Gao Cheng stared at the triplets and said seriously, "Sister Ayako and the others saw with their own eyes that one of you was the murderer! But tell me you were at 11:30 last night. What are you doing?"

"Wait, who are you?" The second child looked dissatisfied, and it was fine for the police to ask, how could it be a brat's turn to ask? .

"Don't you guys know him?" Officer Henggou asked in surprise, "He is the famous detective Kido Kosei who has become very famous recently."

"Name, name detective?"

The face of the novelist boss with mustaches changed slightly, and he looked at Gao Cheng again: "I really seem to have seen it on TV, that detective who is as famous as Kogoro Mouri?"

"Hmph, whether it's a detective or not, anyway, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with me," said the second child nonchalantly, "I was still in Okinawa last night, and I was on a business trip for the company. I just arrived at Tokyo Haneda Airport on the earliest flight today an hour ago, and the last flight from here to Okinawa is at 8 o'clock in the afternoon, there is no way for me to kill Dad here at the villa."

"Detective Chenghu," the boss said following Chao Gaocheng, "I also have a piece of evidence that I don't know if it can be regarded as an alibi. I left a message on the phone at around 11:30 last night."

"Phone message?"

At Tomizawa Villa's house, everyone entered the room of old man Tetsuji Tomizawa.

"Hey, Dad, I'm Taichi," the answering machine played, "Great, the air-to-air team finally won, thanks to the home run that Kigure hit the lamp post in the bottom of the sixth inning. A good beater...recorded at 11:34 p.m.."

"I'm calling from Osaka," the boss said with a relaxed expression, "This should be considered an alibi, right?"

"Well, it happened to be the time when the murder happened..." Officer Henggou frowned, and turned to Gao Cheng expectantly.

"No matter how you look at it, my elder brother can't be the murderer," the second child looked at the thoughtful Gao Cheng and smiled,

"Because the game was only broadcast on satellite TV, and the game ended at around 11:25, if I hadn't watched the game, my eldest brother would never have known so clearly.

"Besides, the satellite broadcast in our villa was broken, and the only people nearby who could watch the match were Suzuki's."

The second child was very sure: "Anyway, my eldest brother and I have an alibi, and the only one left is Yusan who has been staying here."

"How could it be?" Yuzo Tomizawa looked at Gao Cheng with sweat profusely, "Detective Kido, I'm really not the murderer, I've been staying in the studio...and I have no reason to kill my father at all!"

"Kirodo-kun," Suzuki Ayako said eagerly, "I also think Yuzo has no reason to kill uncle..."

"I know."

Gao Cheng glanced at Ayako with a complicated expression, and hope was completely wiped out in his heart.

Not just the status gap, not just the age gap, it was Ayako's feelings that really made him realize that he had no chance.

From the beginning to the end, Ayako just regarded him as Sonoko's friend, as a younger brother, but she really fell in love with Tomizawa Yuzo.

"Brother Xiong San, I will find the murderer."

Gao Cheng calmed down and looked at the triplets carefully again.

They are all about the same age in their 30s, and their faces are generally the same, but their temperaments are very different.

The boss of the novelist, the second of the company employee, and the third of the illustrator, just like old man Fuze complained last night, the three of them are not like people who can inherit the family business, but what motive do they have to kill the old man?

The old man is complaining, but at least he is thinking of his own son...

At this time, a police officer ran in from the outside and whispered in the ear of police officer Henggou.

"Officer Henggou, we have investigated today's flight list..."

"Huh?" Henggou nodded, and looked solemnly at the second child of the triplets, "We confirmed with the airport just now that the flight with your name on it arrived at Haneda Airport 30 minutes ago, so I can trouble you Can you explain it?"

"This," the second child said with an ugly face, "how is this possible?"

"You probably don't know, the flight was delayed because of the typhoon," Henggou asked closely, "May I ask where you were last night?"

"I, I'm in Tokyo..." The second child said in a cold sweat, "Yes, that's right, I went back to Tokyo last night, but I stayed at Haomei's place all the time!"

"Homi?"

"She is my fiancée, and I went to see her worriedly because I heard that she fell ill," the second child explained, "I was afraid that my father would know that I left my job because of her, so I found someone to replace me." of……"

Gao Cheng glanced over at the second child, paused for a moment on the eldest of the Fuze family, turned to Conan and asked in a low voice, "I remember that there was a power outage at 11:30 yesterday, can the answering machine still work when the power is out?"

"Have you noticed?" Conan looked at the back of the boss and said, "Although the phone can still be used after the power outage, the message function cannot be used. That person obviously lied, and even the process of the game was wrong. A base hit flies over a lamppost instead of hitting it..."

"It's quite simple, the question is how he did it."

The details of Tomizawa Tetsuji's corpse emerged in Gao Cheng's mind.

Bloodstains, and the watch on the wrist that seems to have been taken away by the murderer after committing the crime...

It's not a complicated case. Since the murderer deliberately took the watch, the problem lies here. There may be some key clues in the watch.

"Mr. Taiyi," Gao Cheng didn't let Henggou continue to have a headache, and asked directly, "Where did you watch the game yesterday?"

The boss's palms tightened: "Of course it's in the apartment in Osaka..."

Gao Cheng looked straight at him and said, "Really? You said in your phone message that you hit a home run and hit a lamppost, but that's not the case. Have you really watched the game?"

"That's right," Henggou reacted, "I remember that the ball flew over the lamppost..."

"Ah?" The boss was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly, "I didn't watch it on TV, but listened to it. I heard it on the radio... Actually, I was playing steel balls all the time yesterday, because the old man I went to relax because I couldn't think of the plot of the novel, and Osaka could only listen to the live broadcast of that match on the radio..."

"That's right," the police officer confirmed, "Only the Osaka side broadcasts the football game on the radio."

Conan interjected, "Uncle Taiyi was also playing steel balls at 11:30 last night?"

The boss affirmed: "Yes, of course."

"But it's so strange," Conan said in a long voice, "Don't small pachinko shops usually close after eleven o'clock?"

"Ah?" The boss's face suddenly changed, and he quickly changed his words, "I made a mistake. In fact, I heard the broadcast in the car when I was taking a taxi home after playing the steel ball..."

"Brother?" The others felt that the boss was making sophistry, and they followed suit.

The boss said with a sullen face: "In short, I just made a mistake all of a sudden. Anyway, I called and left a message when the murder happened, right? If I killed Dad, how did I hear the live game? "

"This is the problem?" Gao Cheng walked to the answering machine, "Since you were here yesterday, you should also know that there was a power outage when the crime happened. How did you get your message? It can't be used, that is to say, you left a good message long ago, and you should adjust the phone time in advance to the time when the case happened before leaving a message."

"I..." The boss panicked, "Someone must be trying to frame me..."

"There is no need to quibble anymore. Only real murderers will use this method. Others cannot do it, because it is impossible to predict when you will call."

Gao Cheng reasoned: "As for how you knew about the game, I think it probably has something to do with the watch you took away. It may have a bug in it... It's impossible to be sure about these for the time being, but just based on your forged alibi , is enough to show that the murderer is you!"

"I……"

The boss lowered his head, his face huddled into a ball.

"Brother?" Yusan couldn't believe it, "Detective Kido, there must be something wrong, because my brother has no reason to kill Dad..."

"Stop talking, Yusan," the boss let out a breath, as if he had relieved his burden, and smiled bitterly, "I am indeed not the great person you imagined, I am only for money, but in fact I have always wanted Dad's legacy so I can go on as a novelist..."

"elder brother……"

"I've been having a really hard time recently. My work suddenly decreased and I ran out of money, so I made a special trip to discuss with my father and ask him to help me with money... I just found out that it was my father who was right. The publishing house pressured them not to give me any job opportunities...

"I think my father probably wanted me to give up writing novels and let me inherit his career... It is indeed like what Detective Kido said, I gave my father a watch with a bug in advance, and then destroyed the villa. Antenna, so he can only go to Suzuki's house to watch the game."

"Is that how you heard about the game?" Xiong San stared blankly at the boss, "Brother, you..."

"Yusan, I originally planned that if I was lucky, I could pass the crime on to you, so that the inheritance I could share would increase. All this is to continue my favorite novel work..."

"Mr. Taiyi," Gao Cheng interrupted, "no matter what your reasons are, killing people is killing people. Are you really working on the novels you like? If you really like writing novels so much, is there no other solution? I've had bad days too, but no matter how bad the situation is, there's always a way out.

"Mr. Taiyi, you killed your father, in the final analysis, it was only for inheritance. Don't use your novel work as an excuse."

Yuanzi looked at Gao Cheng unexpectedly, feeling quite touched.

Indeed, it is not easy for a person to support an office in Tokyo after graduating from high school...

The boss was silently taken away by the police in handcuffs, and Henggou said to Gao Cheng, "Detective Kido, I will trouble you to go to the police station to make notes."

"Huh? Still need to make notes?"

Sonoko looked at her older sister Ayako who was with Yuzo in front, and then looked at Gaocheng who was buried in her mobile phone and looked very disappointed: "Hey, this time I am really impressed, Kido..."

"Ah!" Gao Cheng raised his head suddenly with a soft cry, which startled Yuanzi.

"What, what's wrong?"

"A female fan happened to be in Izu, and she asked me to go to the beach... I don't know if it's a beauty..."

"Female fan? It won't be any better," Yuanzi hummed softly and turned to Xiaolan. "Let's go to the tanning salon after finishing the notes."

"Eh?" Xiaolan was stunned, "Didn't you say yesterday that you won't be in the sun?"

"Of course I come to Izu to get a tan, so that I can attract the attention of handsome guys."

The corners of Gao Cheng's eyes twitched. The nympho Sonoko came again. He had liked so many handsome guys. Anyway, it was impossible to have any results. In the original drama, he met Kyogoku, a karate master, before he started dating seriously.

"Hey, hey," Conan walked up to Gao Cheng and asked strangely, "Since when did you have a female fan? It just happens to be this time to contact you..."

"Work, work." Gao Cheng put away his phone, and gave Conan a white look, "It's as if I don't have any female fans. Last time I was in Izu, there were two little beauties who asked me to sign... Speaking of which, I I originally thought that I could have an affair this time, but it all went to waste."

Conan half-opened his eyes: "You are no better than Sonoko..."

"You guys who have a girlfriend are not qualified to talk. Xiaolan is so nice, beautiful and secure. I'm really envious."

"You don't have to envy the sense of security." The picture of Xiaolan's violent girl unnaturally appeared in Conan's mind.

"What?" Xiaolan and Yuanzi got into the car in front of them, and turned around in doubt, "What are you talking about? Come up quickly."

"Ah good!"

Several police cars set off from the villa and headed for the police station along the coast road. Yuanzi followed behind in the car of Suzuki's family, and Gao Cheng sat in the police car in front.

Police officer Henggou, a detective fan of Mori Kogoro, seems to have also become a fan of Gao Cheng after the incident last time, chatting excitedly about the case along the way.

"By the way, I also watched the movie of Detective Kido. I heard that the movie is different from the reality. Is it true?"

"The movie added a heroine."

Gao Cheng propped his chin, with a bitter face and no energy.

Why do you have to talk about the case with an uncle fan in the police car? If I had known that I would rather take a car with Yuanzi, even listening to Yuanzi's gossip would be better than now.

"Officer Yokomizo, I'm going back to Tokyo after finishing the transcript. There is a Sherlock Holmes fan party that invites me to give a speech. Could you please send me?"

"No, no problem."
