When everyone arrived at the diplomat's house, they did not expect that the diplomat was already dead. The first person to discover the diplomat's death was his wife, Mr. Sakamura.
After discovering the death of the diplomat, Maori Kogoro immediately called the police.
After the police arrived, they found out after investigation. The deceased was Zuo Cunxun, a 54-year-old diplomat. He died of poison.
At that time, there was a housekeeper named Hayato Koike, the deceased's son, Keizen Sakamura, and his girlfriend, Keiko Sakaki, as well as the deceased's father, Toshimitsu Sakamura. There were also people like Kimie Sakamura and Maori Kogoro who came later.
Excluding Maori Kogoro and the others, there were five suspects.
Hattori Taira scanned the room and soon found two suspicious points. One was the opera that had just been played in the room, and the other was the pile of books in front of the deceased. It was as if these two points were intentional.
Ye Fan greeted Yuan Shan and Ye, saying,"Your name is Yuanshan and Ye, right?"
"Yes."
"My name is Ye Fan. Hello."
"Hello…"
"Miss Yuanshan, why don't you come out with us? Staying here will only hinder the police from handling the case.”
"Yeah, Heye, what are you still standing here for?" Xiaolan agreed.”
"Hiraji, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll go out first."”
"Wait…"
Heiji Hattori walked over angrily and said to Kazuha,"What are you doing? Who asked you to leave with this annoying fellow?”After saying that, he even glared fiercely at Ye Fan. For some reason, Hattori Taira was very unhappy with Ye Fan the moment he saw him. He wanted to beat him up. Now that he was talking to Takayama and Yabba, Hattori felt even worse.
"Hiraji, you're too much.”
Yuanshan and Ye were angry. What was wrong with Heiji today? He was so unreasonable.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what happened today.”
Then, Yuan Shan and Ye apologized to Ye Fan on his behalf.
"It's alright."
"Hey, hey…Kazuya, who asked you to apologize on your own!”
"Woo…"
Yuanshan and Ye looked pitiful. Xiaolan, who had a strong sense of justice, couldn't stand it anymore.
"You only know how to bully girls. Don't you have any shame?”
Xiao Lan took Yuan Shan and Ye's hands and said,""Heya, ignore him. Let's go.”
After the two of them left, Ye Fan looked at Hattori Heiji provocatively and said,"Brother, aren't you being a little too blunt with your words? Don't worry, I'll help you comfort Miss Yuanshan.”
Ye Fan patted Hattori Heiji's shoulder and chuckled before leaving the house.
"Damn it…"
Heiji Hattori clenched his fists tightly. If it weren't for the police, Heiji Hattori would have rushed forward to beat Ye Fan up.
Mu Shisan looked at Hattori Heiji in confusion and said,""Ping Ci, why are you so angry? Ye Fan is right. Unrelated personnel shouldn't be here.”
Heiji Hattori also realized that he was not in the right. He shook his head helplessly and continued to work on the case.
Screen 13 noticed that all the windows in the study were locked from the inside. It was impossible to enter and exit from the outside. The only way out was through that door. Therefore, the most likely person now was the person who had the key to this house.
" Mrs. Zuo, may I ask how many people have the key to this study?" Mu Shisan came to Mr. Zuo and asked.
"No, only my husband and I have it.”As he spoke, he took out his key from his bag.
"As for my husband's key, I remember that he always kept it in his pants pocket.”
"Oh, really? Let me see." Mu Shisan was a bit surprised and walked towards the dead with suspicion.
"Yes, it's still bulging." Officer Megure reached into the victim's pocket and pulled it out.
At this moment, the key hidden in the double pocket of the deceased fell out instantly.
" How is that possible?" Officer Megure was shocked.
Only Maori Kogoro looked confused." What's wrong? What's so strange about that?"”
"Idiot."
"Don't you understand? When we came in, the door was locked. That means that the murderer locked the door before leaving after committing the crime." One of the keys to the study was with Madam, who entered the study with us. The other key was in the double pocket of the victim's pants. This formed the perfect case of an impossible crime. It was a murder case in a secret room.”
"Murder in a secret room?"
"The time of the crime should be between 3:30 and 4:00. The most important thing now is to find out the alibi of the people who might have committed the crime during this period of time."
"That's true."
However, no matter how he looked at it, Officer Megure's smile was still a little forced. Under the questioning of Officer Mumu, he found out that the housekeeper, Koike Rin 17o, had been chatting with the neighbors nearby. As for Keizen Sakamura and Keiki Sachiko, they had just arrived home not long after Maori Kogoro and the others arrived. They had also gone upstairs to look for the victim, but the door was locked at that time. There was no response when they called, so they went downstairs again.
Finally, the victim's father, Toshimitsu Sakamura, also came after 2 o'clock. He had also looked for the victim. Similarly, the door of the study was locked at that time. Helpless, he could only watch TV in the living room next to the study. He waited until Mr. Sakamura came back before walking out of the living room.
Of course, just in case, Officer Megure also asked Mr. Sakamura about it. After learning that he would leave after one o'clock, he didn't say anything else.
"If that's the case, the only suspects that can be eliminated are Butler Pool and Madam Zuo. The remaining three could be the murderers.”
Hattori Heiji's mind was spinning…
