"The deceased was Mr. Toshimichi Sekiguchi, 43 years old. It is estimated that the time of death was four hours ago, between 8:30 and 9pm."

Hengmou Sengo confirmed the identity and time of death of the deceased Sekiguchi Toshinichi. This is Shizuoka. When the police received the call, he naturally led the people there.

"Mr. Sekiguchi is your friend, Mrs. Anrong, right?"

"Yes.

An Rong, a friend of the Chinese nation standing nearby, replied:"We were classmates in high school, and he is now the boss of a security company." Henggou asked,"Then the person who installed the fingerprint recognition machine at the entrance on the third floor is also Mr. Sekiguchi, right?""

"Yes!"

Guoyou An Rong nodded.

"Let me ask you something."

Henggou Shenwu stretched his head forward a little and said,"Where were you between eight-thirty and nine o'clock in the evening?"

Kuniyou Anrong looked at her husband Kuniyou Chundao:"At that time, I should be taking my husband to the hospital. My husband has some heart problems, so he goes to a doctor he knows for a checkup on the 3rd of every month."

Henggou Zenwu asked again:"Then what time do you go out?"

"It's almost eight o'clock sharp."

An Rong, a friend of the country, replied. After being asked continuously, she said angrily:"You don't doubt us, do you?"

"The time for the master and his wife to set off from here is indeed eight o'clock in the evening. Kenzo

Akatsuka, who was standing next to him, saw this and helped explain:"In order to send them two to the car, I came up here five minutes before eight o'clock." At that time, I saw that Mr. Sekiguchi was still alive and well."

"Well, didn't Mr. Sekiguchi commit suicide?"

"This is not yet certain. Henggou shook his head and said,"Because there is something very strange. The rope loop he wants to put his head into is really too close to the handrail of the balcony." It's not that there's no way to trap it so close, it's just very difficult to pull off, so I think it's probably a homicide disguised as suicide."

"Well, although it’s not yet certain whether it’s suicide or homicide...."

Mouri Kogoro, who was sitting on the chair, stood up, took out the paper and said,"But this card with the words 'The crime committed thirteen years ago will be repaid today' should be the key to solving this incident. I think it is correct."."

Henggou couldn't help but asked:"Mr. Maoli, where did you get this card?"

"It was found in Mr. Sekiguchi's clothes before the police arrived."Mouri Kogoro replied

"No, how can you move around like this?"

Hengmou Senwu said with some helplessness. In front of the police, nothing at the scene should be moved. What Mouri Kogoro did made him very embarrassed.

"I know, so I've taught it."

As Mouri Kogoro spoke, he looked at Conan who was holding his head with both hands.

"Aha?"

Hengmou Sensou didn't react for a while, but he didn't mean to go into details. He took the card from Mouri Kogoro's hand and read it.

"But what's the point of this card? What was the crime committed thirteen years ago?"

"Well, let’s ask these three people."

Takada Shinichi spoke out and looked at Kunitomo Jundai, Kunitomo Anei and Akatsuka Kenzo. Before the police arrived, the three people's faces changed drastically after seeing the card. They probably knew what the card meant. It's just that they didn't say it at the time.

"You guys, what happened thirteen years ago?"

Hengmou understood what Takada Shinichi meant, and looked at Kunito Jundai, Kunito Anrong and Akatsuka Kenzo. The three were silent for a while, but Akatsuka Kenzo finally chose to answer.

"Almost exactly thirteen years ago, the master's ship sank and a shipwreck occurred. At that time, every year at this time, everyone in the family would take the master's boat to go out to sea for fun, but they ran aground near Suruga Bay."

"The master, his wife, and Mr. Sekiguchi, who happened to be on the boat that time, luckily escaped, but the whereabouts of the others are unknown, and the sunken ship has never been found."

Mouri Kogoro heard this and said:"From what you said, could it be that Mr. Sekiguchi caused the shipwreck, so you want to take revenge on him or something?

Akatsuka Kenzo immediately said:"Well, because I get seasick, I didn't take a boat out to sea that time.""

"So, the other two people who were rescued, you should know the reason why the ship sank, right?"

Henggou Zenwu looked at Kuniyou Chundai and Kuniyou Anrong.

They were startled, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

Kuniyou Anrong said:"This...We were taking a nap in the cabin, but suddenly we heard Mr. Sekiguchi saying to run away...."

"At that time, I was focused on escaping and didn't know anything else. Junda Kunitomo added aloud.

Kogoro Mouri asked Kenzo Akatsuka:"So, do any of the family members of the victims of that accident work here?"

Akatsuka Kenzo:"Yes... yes.""

Mouri Kogoro said with his chin in his hand:"So, there should be some connection between Mr. Sekiguchi's murder and the five incidents in this mansion."

"Five incidents?"

Hengmou Sengo made a confused sound.

Mouri Kogoro knew that Henggou Sengo didn't know what these five incidents were, so he said it again. It can be proved from the two cards that the two are related, so he suspected that this was It is also normal for someone in this house to have a conspiracy.

After hearing this, Sengo Hengo was very sure of Mouri Kogoro's guess, so he asked Kenzo Akatsuka to invite all the family members of the victims who worked here..

Akatsuka Kenzo responded and turned around.

Conan walked to the corpse at this time. As he was walking casually, he suddenly found that one hand of the covered corpse was exposed, with a watch on it, and this There were letters E and N in the watch, which made him realize something was wrong.

"Conan, are you sleepy? Do you want to go to bed first?"

Mao Lilan walked to Conan's side. It was already very late.

"You're not sleepy, Sister Xiaolan."

Conan responded with a smile. Of course he can't go to bed at this time. He has to stay here no matter what.

"Since Conan is not sleepy, let him stay here too."

Takada Shinichi said to Maori Lan, Conan still needs to solve this case, there is no need to drive Conan away._
