Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 20 This old man is a bit fierce

Faced with Kogoro Mori's identification, Kubota naturally refused to admit it, but the police on both sides had already surrounded Kubota.

At this time, Police Officer Meguro said seriously: "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it now."

"Let's take a look at the pictures taken by the anti-theft camera, and everything will become clear."

After speaking, the police, detectives, and personnel involved in the case began to withdraw in an orderly manner to the outside of the hell exhibition hall, leaving only a small number of forensic policemen guarding the scene.

Qin Zhibo did not tell the police that he had found the bloody armor in Kubota's employee cabinet, otherwise Kubota would be beaten as the murderer now.

On the one hand, the investigation and evaluation of the note in the deceased's hand made Qin Zhibo think that the murderer might not be Kubota.

On the other hand, Qin Zhibo wants to find out the truth alone, so that he can get a higher mission evaluation.

Now that there are surveillance cameras at the scene of the murder, Qin Zhibo will of course follow him to have a look, maybe he can find clues to the last investigation point.

But at this moment, Qin Zhibo saw Director Ochiai at the end of the crowd squatting in a dark corner beside the armor, looking at his arms swinging like he was tying his shoelaces.

After curator Ochiai finished tying his shoelaces, he stood up and left the dark corner as if nothing had happened.

But just like a hen laying eggs, there was a dark corner where there was nothing just now, after Director Ochiai left, a white spot of light suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Investigate points!
Qin Zhibo hurried over to investigate.

【Investigation√】

[This is a ballpoint pen with the words "[-]th Anniversary of Mihua Art Museum" written on it]

[The investigation of all the investigation points at the crime scene has been completed, is the scene reproduced? 】

Qin Zhibo had confirmed before the police came that there was absolutely no investigation point here.

But curator Ochiai squatted here and tied a shoelace just now, and the investigation point appeared.

There is only one answer.
Director Ochiai is the murderer!

It's just that even if he confirmed this idea in his heart, Qin Zhibo couldn't tell the police this nonsensical answer.

Qin Zhibo still needs to use the [Scene Reappearance] function to sort out the entire crime process of Director Ochiai.

【Scenario reappears√】

In the field of vision, a "Xiao Hei" was bent over on the display cabinet next to him, judging from the movements of his fingers, he seemed to be writing something.

Afterwards, Xiao Hei stood against the wall and waited motionless.

Suddenly, "Xiao Hei" showed a fierce look, staring closely at the forensic officer who was standing in front of the corpse and taking pictures.

From the information floating next to the forensic officer's head, Qin Zhibo knew that his surname was Dengmi.

The next second, "Xiao Hei" suddenly jumped up, raised the thing he was holding with both hands, and slashed on the head of Forensic Officer Dengmi with all his strength.

At this time, Deng Mi also just pressed the shutter of the camera, but his body suddenly shivered.

This cold war let Demi know.

The photo is blurred.
Then, as if he staggered a step, "Xiao Hei" stood in front and waited for a while, then turned his head and slashed at the void behind him.

Judging from Boss Zhenzhong's body hanging on the wall, "Xiao Hei" grabbed Boss Zhenzhong's neck with one hand, lifted him up, and pierced Boss Zhenzhong's head with a big sword with the other hand. The body is nailed to the wall.

Afterwards, "Xiao Hei" turned and left the Hell Exhibition Hall, and Qin Zhibo followed all the way to the staff lounge.

In the staff lounge, "Xiao Hei" performed a non-physical performance about taking off his clothes, and then put all the things he took off into Kubota's cabinet.

Seeing this, Qin Zhibo also understood.

It turns out that what Ochiai curator wore when he killed people was the armor in Kubota's cabinet.

Curator Ochiai is an old man over sixty years old, wearing metal armor, he can lift the bloated Boss Manaka with one hand, and he can penetrate the skull and wall of a person with one hand with a sword.

I have to say that the old man's physical fitness is really strong.
At this time, a new reminder appeared in Qin Zhibo's vision.

[Do you want to fast forward? 】

This is the fast-forward function in the reenactment of the scene, which can quickly skip the meaningless fragments in the crime process of "Xiao Hei".

【Yes】

Qin Zhibo confirmed the fast-forward option in his brain, and all actions of "Xiao Hei" seemed to be at ten times the speed.

When Qin Zhibo returned to the hell exhibition hall again, "Xiao Hei" just walked to the dark corner next to the armor.

He squatted down, took out something from his pocket and put it on the ground, then picked up something on the ground and stuffed it into the inner pocket of his left chest.

[End of scene reenactment]

In the hell exhibition hall, Kubota is being confronted by the police and other art museum employees.

In the video that just finished playing, everyone saw that the armored man hiding behind Boss Zhenzhong beheaded Boss Zhenzhong.

"In order to avoid being caught by the anti-theft camera, you deliberately wore armor, but unexpectedly, the deceased recognized you, and then left this death message on a note."

Regarding Mori Kogoro's reasoning, Kubota couldn't argue with anything, and could only shout: "But I have no motive for committing the crime at all!"

At this time, a square-faced employee next to him stood up and made up the knife, "Even if you want to hide it, it's useless, Kubota!"

"Recently, the artworks in the museum have disappeared. Among the employees, you are the only one who has a history of stealing artworks from the museum and selling them for money. It was you who knelt down to the curator and begged for mercy before giving you a chance."

"But after Boss Zhenzhong found out about this, isn't he asking you for huge compensation now?"

Kubota was in a cold sweat after hearing this, and quickly denied it.

"This incident has nothing to do with the murder case! I didn't kill people!"

"And I didn't steal the recently lost art from the gallery!"

"I swear!"

At this time, the police brought another piece of news that made Kubota desperate.

"Report to the police department, bloody armor was found in Kubota's employee cabinet."

Now that the evidence is so strong, it's useless for Kubota to deny it.

According to the procedures, Police Officer Mumu can get people and get off work in a one-stop process.

But at this moment, a voice stopped Mu Mu from getting off work.

"Actually, the real culprit is not him."

Hearing this voice, Mori Kogoro immediately looked around and found the person who made the voice.

Sure enough, it was the colleague who robbed his own business.

But before Mori Kogoro could refute, Meguro had already asked.

"Brother Qin, do you want to say that Kubota is not the real culprit?"

"Yes." Qin Zhibo nodded of course.

"Then who is the real culprit? And why is Kubota's name written on the note in the deceased's hand?"

Regarding the question from Police Officer Mu Mu, Qin Zhibo didn't have a domineering and confident reasoning, but turned his head directly to look at Ochiai Shizen, who is the curator of the art museum.

"Curator Ochiai, when everyone was going from the exhibition hall to the monitoring room, I saw you squatting on the side of the armor, right?"

"May I ask what you were doing at that time?"

Director Ochiai's heart skipped a beat, but he pretended to be calm and explained, "I'm just tying my shoelaces."

But the second after the words were spoken, Director Ochiai's eyes hidden under the bushy eyebrows were revealed, and then he looked down slowly.

Today I am wearing leather shoes.
