302. Movement In The Dark
302. Movement In The Dark
Mouri Kogoro continued: "Hurry and call the police, maybe this is a murder case."
"Wait a minute, don't expect me to die so soon."
Ogata Minoru struggled to get up from the ground.
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah..."
Zhiro asked: "What happened?"
"I didn't know that something suddenly knocked me unconscious just now."
The middle-aged man said: "Is the thing you are talking about the guzheng?"
"Maybe."
Zhiro said: "How could this happen? This thing is dad's most precious thing.
"Miss Haruna, could it be that you knocked me unconscious just now?" Minoru Ogata asked Haruna angrily.
Haruna said: "Why should I..."
Wu Fan said: "It was definitely not her, because when we heard the loud noise just now, we were all in Xiao Ran's room, right.
"Well, that's right."
Ogata Minoru covered his head and said, "Who could have done it?"
Conan asked: "Brother 803, you should have seen the gangster's face, right?"
"What?"
"That's right, because big brother, your injury is on your forehead, which means the gangster attacked you from the front."
"Oh, it was so dim at the time, how could I possibly see the face?"
"Then when you were knocked unconscious, this room was also dark."
"Yes, by the time I noticed the strange noise in the darkness, it was already too late."
"But this is strange."
"There's nothing strange about this."
"Brother, what were you doing alone in this dark room just now?"
"..."
Mouri Kogoro tried to smooth things over: "Idiot! He must have sensed that someone might be in this room before he came in to check, and then just when he wanted to turn on the light, he was used by the guy hiding in it. I was knocked unconscious by the guzheng."
Wu Fan looked at Mouri Kogoro with half-moon eyes: "As expected of you, you can actually explain it logically.
Although there is a certain (agfe) possibility in Mouri Kogoro's statement, there is definitely something wrong with Ogata Minoru coming to this room alone in the dark in the middle of the night.
Mouri Kogoro said: "That's right, Mr. Min."
Ogata Minoru replied: "Yes, that's right."
Ran Mouri said: "What about the message received from Ms. Haruna's phone?"
"I think that was passed on by Haruna-san's friend."
Haruna was a little shocked: "My friend?"
"I think Ms. Haruna must have made an appointment with some friend to meet tonight, right? I didn't expect that she completely forgot about it and came to Mr. Qiu Wu, so that friend sent that message saying, I He has been waiting for you to express his dissatisfaction, what I said should be correct, right?"
Wu Fan was speechless and choked: "Haha...this imagination is really amazing!"
Haruna shook her head and said, "No, I didn't make an appointment with any friend at all."
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Mouri Kogoro hurriedly said: "There are too many things that happened today, and it is natural that you will forget.
Ran Mouri looked at Mouri Kogoro and said, "It doesn't make sense. How can we explain the old gentleman's shadow?"
Mouri Kogoro said dismissively: "What's that?"
Zhiro guessed: "Isn't that the gangster who attacked my brother?"
"But how could an old gentleman on crutches lift such a heavy guzheng and knock someone unconscious?"
Mouri Kogoro said confidently: "Absolutely correct! Even if there is such an old man, it is impossible to knock Mr. Amin unconscious in one go. Besides, Xiao Ran said that the old man she saw was walking to the left of the corridor. In the past, even if he did escape to the room on the left, he would still bump into me, Wu Fan and Conan."
"Ai......"
"I think this old gentleman is probably..."
"what is it?"
"I'm afraid you've made a mistake. The ancients said that suspicion breeds hidden ghosts. This is not unreasonable.
Wu Fan complained in his heart: "One person may be able to see it wrong, but it would be too far-fetched for two people to see it wrong, right?"
Ran Mouri said unconvinced: "What are these words? I really saw them."
Mouri Kogoro mocked: "When you talk about ghosts, you are so scared that you don't know anything else. Naturally, everything you see will feel like ghosts.'
"dad!"
Mouri Kogoro looked at the middle-aged woman: "In short, Mrs. Ogata, please call the police. I can confirm that someone from outside has sneaked into this house now."
"OK."
Wu Fan does not agree with this statement. If an outsider sneaked in, what was his motive?
If it was for money, the whole room would be very tidy and there would be no trace of being disturbed.
Is it possible that the murderer is someone who has hatred for Ogata Minoru? But this room is not Ogata Minoru's room. It is not difficult to imagine what he would do in a dark room, but when and how the gangster was learned about this.
Next is the guzheng. The gangster chose to use this guzheng as the murder weapon. Is there any hidden secret?
Next is the strange shadow that Ran Mouri and Haruna saw.
In addition, there is another doubt. That music box is missing three notes. There must be a very important secret hidden in that music box.
This involves something that the family has been looking for, which is a group of mailboxes with a market value of 200 million yuan that were hidden secretly.
Not long after, the police arrived and searched the entire house.
After the search, Mouri Kogoro asked: "What? You said there were no signs of invasion by outsiders?"
A police officer replied: "Well, there was mud everywhere around the house because of the rain, but there were no muddy footprints in the whole house. Even if the criminals sneaked in before it rained, they would not have been there when they left." It should leave traces.”
"But the gangster has obviously been here, and he is no longer in the house."
"The only problem with the front and back of the house is the unclosed back door."
Mouri Kogoro was a little confused: "What backdoor?"
The middle-aged woman explained: "Because the lock on our back door has long been broken, every time the wind blows, it will naturally blow open.'
