Conan: Developing business in Kexue World

Chapter 173 - The Prisoner's Arrogance
"Huh?" Dachang Wu, who was guilty of guilt, would be listening to all directions and watching all directions. Hearing that the testimony of the two of them was suspicious, he immediately stopped.

Takagi turned around and said, "It's okay. He just asked you, can you really see the surface?"

"What are you saying? I see it clearly." Chen Ji Yingzi retorted.

Dachang realized: "Ah, when you arrived here, you must have felt that it was too dark, something was wrong, right?"

He raised the watch in his left hand and said, "This watch of mine is painted with fluorescent paint on the hour hand. It is luminous, so you can see the time in the dark. As for dimming the light, it is the president's intention. He It’s like doing it for a show.”

"That said, something is still not quite right." Shinichi said, and then whispered in Gaomu's ear.

Mu Mu stepped forward: "Wait a minute, I want to listen too."

"Please, what do you think is wrong?" Ohba Satoru expressed dissatisfaction loudly.

"That's right." Shinichi went up to explain.

This kid immediately got started, and Shinichi walked up to Chen Ji Yingzi, and put his left hand on Chen Ji Yingzi's right ear.

"Look, even if you touch this earring with a watch-wearing hand, you can't see the numbers on the watch."

Men generally wear the watch on the outside of the left hand, so that when the couple face each other and touch each other's right ear with their hands, the other party cannot see the dial.

Ohba Satoru chuckled, grabbed Shinichi's hand, and moved to the other side, but kept Shinichi's hand from touching Tatsuya Sakurako.

"If you touch the earring on the other side, won't you see it?"

Shinichi asked, "Hey, why did you deliberately touch your left ear with your left hand?"

Oba realized: "You can tell by her hairstyle, she has always been used to revealing her left ear and the pearls in her left ear, that's why I..."

Shinichi interrupted him, and asked innocently: "Then what's wrong with your right hand? It's much more convenient to touch your left ear with your right hand."

The corner of Xinyi's mouth rose, "Could it be that you were holding something in your right hand at that time?"

Ohba Goto's expression changed drastically, and he was stunned on the spot.

On the other side, Xiaolan was still sitting at the dining table, waiting for Shinichi to return.

Xiaolan picked up the straw in the glass, poked the ice cube, and looked out the window.

Shinichi wants to tell me something important, what could it be?Could it be...

Xiaolan fantasizes, and the new couple complains to themselves, "I haven't seen you for a while, have you gained weight?"

Xiaolan's eyebrows trembled, and her face was covered with cold sweat.Chances are, waistlines have indeed been on the rise lately.But he specially invited me to dinner, he wouldn't ask such a thing, would he?

At this time, a waitress came over with a dessert, "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Xiaolan quickly refused, "Can I wait for my friend to come back to serve dim sum? He rushed out after hearing the cry just now, but he is a detective, so I think the matter will be resolved soon. "

The waitress laughed all of a sudden, quickly put her hand in front of her mouth, and said with a smile: "Then let's serve it later."

Xiaolan asked: "What's wrong?"

"I'm really sorry." The waitress explained: "I heard from the sommelier before that there is a legendary couple, and I think you are quite similar to them. They were also sitting at this table at the time. Although it was already It was a story 20 years ago, but this person was also a detective 20 years ago."

The waitress looked gossiping: "After he solved the case, he immediately said it out loud. I think you'd better be mentally prepared."

Xiaolan blinked, "What did he say?"

The waitress said: "Marriage proposal, of course it is a marriage proposal."

"Eh~?"

"Then I will bless you first!" The waitress left with the dessert.

Proposal?Xiaolan blushed slightly, turned her head to look at the seat opposite, Masaka, could it be Shinichi... no way.

This is so ridiculous.In the end, Xiaolan convinced herself and removed the correct answer.

The perspective returns to the scene of the crime.

Ohba Satoru came back to his senses, and asked loudly, "What do you mean? You mean, I was holding a pistol in my right hand?"

"Pistol? I don't think I have said that." Xinyi said innocently.

Ohba Satoru was taken aback.

Shinichi still had the same expression, and asked again: "Did you really take it?"

Satoru Ohba excitedly protested to Officer Mumu, "This officer, who is this boy?"

His eyes were at a loss, and he still wanted to explain: "Actually, he is, this..."

Xin Yidao: "Don't look at me as young, but I'm actually a new police officer. Right, officer."

"Ahaha~" Mumu smiled dryly, squinting at Shinichi.

Chen already Yingzi took a few steps forward and asked: "Why do you suspect Mr. Oba? Since the three of them are here and send my father downstairs, it is absolutely impossible for him to commit murder, because later, he Always been inseparable from me."

Shinichi asked, "Didn't you go somewhere else on the way?"

Chenji Yingzi said: "In order to put on the necklace he gave me, I went to the bathroom, and I touched up some lipstick by the way. It took about 2 or 3 minutes, and he kept leaning against the wall talking to me. It’s no different than inseparable.”

With this witness, Satoru Ohba smiled confidently.

"Police Department." At this moment, a police officer came out from the corner and said, "I found a pistol with a silencer and an empty magazine."

Mu Mu asked, "Where is the location?"

The policeman said: "It's in the garbage collection site of this building. In my opinion, it should be thrown into the garbage pipe by the gangsters while fleeing."

Meguro asked the employees working here, "Excuse me, is there a garbage disposal device in this building?"

"Yes, it's next to the bathroom."

Xinyi rested his chin, "I see. In this way, he can talk while disappearing."

Oba Wu said: "Hey, please, from the looks of you, it seems that you have already identified me as the murderer. Then let me ask you, when the president took the elevator downstairs, how did I kill the president? What? Tonight, I have been with her all the time." Ohba Satoru put his hands on Tatsuya Sakurako's shoulders, the corners of his mouth raised.

"In case, if I were to kill someone, shouldn't my cuffs have a gunpowder reaction?" Ohba Satoru smiled confidently, because the pistol was tightly wrapped and packed in a transparent bag at that time. A smoke reaction may be detected.

"Oh, do you know very clearly?" Xin said.

Smoke reaction is actually a kind of shooting residue identification.

Shot residue is the air mass of gunpowder particles that is ejected from the muzzle or escaped from the end of the barrel when the gun is fired. Between the fingers, the surface of the bullet, the inner wall of the barrel and the surface of related parts.

Because of its stubbornness, it needs to be washed many times to remove it, so it will be regarded as a strong evidence.

To detect the smoke reaction of gunpowder, the principle is very simple. It can be proved by replacing the nitrate with a metal compound that is more active than nitrate to produce a color change.Generally, the police are equipped with test strips to test the smoke reaction during the inspection.

Officer Megure said: "So, can you assist us in our investigation?"

"Yes. It doesn't matter." Oba Satoru replied, and left with the police officer.

"Mr. Oba..." Sakurako Tatsuya looked at his leaving back.

Shinichi suddenly stopped Chen Yingzi: "Miss, may I ask if you kissed just now? And it was in front of the elevator?"

"Hey~ Did you see it?" Chen Ji Yingzi was shy.

"No, this is what my mother told me. She said that women will repaint their lipsticks, either after eating or just kissing." Shinichi replied.

Then Shinichi asked about the details again, and started again, "Excuse me, how did he kiss you at that time?"

"He put his hand on me..."

Shinichi took advantage of the situation to hug Tatsuya Sakurako, "At that time, did you sit with your back facing the elevator?"

"Yes, that's true." Chen Ji Yingzi said, and the distance between the two was getting closer.

Shinichi asked with a magnetic voice: "Do you often do this behind people's backs?"

Chenji Yingzi's eyes trembled, and her cheeks began to flush slightly, "We just made an appointment to meet here tonight."

Seeing that the high school students were about to perform an impure show in front of him, Takagi was about to step forward to dissuade him, "I said, wait..."

Shinichi let go of Sakurako Chen, and said, "Thank you so much, these materials are very useful."

Chenji Yingzi got angry, pushed Shinichi away, turned around and was about to leave.

Shinichi asked from behind: "I'm sorry, there is one more thing, may I ask you, your pair of earrings, maybe Mr. Oba gave you too?"

Chenji Yingzi said unhappily: "Cannian, you guessed wrong this time, these are the earrings I bought on impulse before I came here today, not a gift from him."

Shinichi narrowed his eyes, "Is that so? Thank you." Hmph, I guessed right, he was the one who shot and killed the president, and the murderer was definitely Satoru Ohba.

Takagi was numb by Xiu, can it still be like this?Do you want to try with Sato another day?

On the other side, Xiaolan is still waiting for Xinyi to come back, waiting for Zhong Xiaolan to start thinking wildly again, thinking of what the waitress said for a while, and denying herself for a while.

Hey, what the hell is Shinichi going to tell me?Xiaolan stretched her waist, she really hoped that Shinichi would solve the case quickly and come back.

At the scene of the murder, Shinichi already knew that the murderer was Satoru Oba.

However, there is still a doubt that has not been resolved, and that is the smoke reaction. Judging by his confident appearance, he must have done something about it.

At this time, the employees started talking.

A short-haired female employee said, "By the way, could it be because of that? Didn't Minister Oba wear a mascot when he entered the venue just now?"

The long-haired female employee said: "That's right, this way he will have a chance to change out of his clothes."

Mu Mu asked, "Is what you said true?"

Employee with short hair: "Yes, the main purpose of the reception tonight is to announce our company's latest mascot. That mascot has been standing on the stage at that time."

Long-haired employee: "When we knew it was Minister Oba, we were shocked."

Short-haired employee: "That's right."

Eyes resting on his chin, "So that's how it is. As long as he prepares the same clothes in advance, he can easily change the clothes that are stained with gunpowder smoke."
