My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 543 Is there such a coincidence? (page 12)

Aoki Song didn't care about Takagi Wataru and Sato Miwako, but watched the fireworks show with Niina Kahori.

As for Sayuri and the others, they were naturally brought out by Dr. Ali and then sent back by Dr. Ali!

What Aoki Song didn't expect was that several of the little ones were already talking about who the next "victim" would be.

The reason was that Genta discovered a pet shop, and there was a "very cute animal" in it. Ayumi and others were very curious, and Genta didn't say what it was, so the young detective team decided to go to the pet shop the next day. See the face of this "very cute animal".

I just didn't expect...the store manager has been dead in the store for a long time now.

After receiving Sayuri's call, Aoki Song hurried over.

First let Ayumi Maruta lead the police officers to inspect the scene and go through the case handling process. Then he looked at the Young Detective Team and the man standing next to them.

Then Aoki Song directly called him, "Conan, tell me what happened."

Conan had become accustomed to Qingkisong's habit of handling cases, so he didn't panic at the moment. After thinking about it, he said: "Yuntai said yesterday that he saw a very cute animal in this store, so we came today. But there was no When we came here, we found that the door was not opened and the anti-theft net was pulled down. "

Aoki Song frowned when he heard this and asked: "The door is not open, and the anti-theft net is still pulled down, so how did you find the body of the store manager?"

The store manager's body was inside the store and could not be found from the outside.

Conan heard this and explained: "Because I found that the door seemed to be unlocked. At this time, this brother also came over and said that the store manager should open the door at ten o'clock. Then the brother pulled up the anti-theft net, and then We just walked in.

There were no lights on in the store and it was a little dim. Then we heard a sound, like the sound of some small animal crawling on the paper. We thought it was a snake, but we didn't expect it to be a beetle. Then the door was not closed properly, and I inadvertently peeked inside through the crack in the door.

I found it was a mess inside. When I walked in, I found the store manager lying on the ground. I pressed his wrist and found that there was no pulse, so I quickly called the police. "

Upon hearing this, Aoki Song looked at the young man standing aside and asked, "Sir, do you agree with what Conan just said? Is there anything you want to add or correct?"

The other party shook his head, "What happened just now was just like what this child said."

Aoki Song nodded when he heard this, then looked at Maruta Ayumi aside and asked, "How is it?"

"The victim is the manager of this pet store, Shirai Minoru. He is 41 years old. There are traces of being strangled on his neck. The murder weapon has not been found yet." Maruta Ayumi said while holding the notebook.

After hearing this, Aoki Song walked in and looked at the body.

Although there were strangulation marks on the victim's neck, they were a little strange. They were marks of strangulation by a very thin rope.

But it is wider than fishing line or piano line, so it is not an old actor in the world of Ke Xue.

Then Aoki Song looked at the body carefully and discovered the problem.

There is leaf mold on the hair of the corpse. It stands to reason that in the city, this kind of leaf mold can only be obtained by purchasing gardening soil. But if you are just planting flowers, it is impossible to get the leaf mold on the head.

In addition, the posture of the corpse's legs is also somewhat strange. The legs are bent. If the person was killed in a shop, after death, the body will first become soft, then hard, and then soft again. The legs should be straight.

This shows that the victim was most likely not killed in the pet shop, but was murdered elsewhere and then moved here.

Thinking of this, Aoki Song quickly ordered the police to ask the residents on the left and right to see if there were any clues. He also investigated the victim's interpersonal relationships and looked for the key to the store.

After giving the instructions, Qingmusong walked up to the young man and asked, "May I ask your surname?"

"My name is Ninomiya Toshiya," the young man said.

Aoki Song nodded, "Mr. Ninomiya, why are you here?"

Ninomiya Toshiya heard this and said quickly: "Mr. Shirai took the initiative to make an appointment with me and asked me to come here at ten o'clock this morning. And he also asked me to call at six o'clock last night to confirm and see if I had arrived. Goods.”

Since I came here today, it means that the "goods" have arrived.

"Then was there anything unusual about his voice on the phone?" Aoki Song asked.

Ninomiya Toshiya shook his head, "No, I only heard the sound of a frog or something."

"You mean shouting?" Qingmusong was a little confused.

The animals in the house are all insects, and there are no cicadas. How loud can they be!

But if the other party is the murderer, there is no need to tell this point. After thinking about it, Aoki Song wrote this point down in a small notebook. Maybe this is the key to solving the case.

"Mr. Ninomiya, what do you plan to buy?" Aoki Song asked.

Even though this is a pet shop that sells insects, in fact the number of "pets" smuggled and sold in this category far exceeds that of animals and birds.

The reason is simple, it is small, easy to carry, and the price of one is not low.

Ninomiya Toshiya heard this and quickly replied: "I want to buy some beetles."

Ayumi Maruta blinked when he heard this and asked: "Buying beetles, are there any beetles this season?"

"Well, I heard someone say that there is a place over in Gunma that supplies beetles all year round!"

"Gunma!" Aoki Song heard this and blinked.

Memories that were originally forgotten appeared in my mind.

Gunma Prefecture + Beetle.

Aoki Song immediately thought of two cases.

The first case has already happened, Mitsuhiko Lost in the Forest.

The second case has also occurred, that is, Brother Cao and Zhu Fu Gaoming were childhood playmates, and the two had a secret base.

Brother Cao's words, "Please tell him that Xiao Cao from the Yamamura family wants to see him!"

I don’t know how many people’s tears it has made, and it will never be forgotten.

Is this case related to Brother Cao?

Aoki Song then thought that the victim was not killed in the pet shop, but somewhere else, so could this place be in Gunma County?

According to the news Aoki Song learned from the Internet in his last life, insects and other things can actually "sit through the bottom of a cell".

Although Aoki Song doesn't know the specific species of the "cell-sitting beast" in Neon, there must be some in such a large category as insects.

If there is, then it is very likely that rare animals are stolen and sold, and the profits are huge, enough for some people to take risks and even use force to kill people.

Aoki Song was not exaggerating at all. He had seen a lot of news like this in his previous life.

After thinking about it, Aoki Song asked someone to contact Brother Cao from Gunma County. It would be more reassuring to ask, and at least one option could be eliminated.

Then Aoki Song continued to ask: "Mr. Ninomiya, may I ask, where were you yesterday?"

Ninomiya Toshiya thought for a while and said, "I slept until noon yesterday and worked in the factory from three to ten in the afternoon."
