Chapter 32 Xiang Yuanguang is also a suspect
————April 13, 8:50————
————Nikkei TV Editorial Department, Mixing Room on the Fourth Floor————
Inspector Megure stared at the cordon outside the mixing room.
Wait until Miwako Sato and Detective Mori and others come to the fourth floor.
He turned his head and stared at Kogoro Mouri, thoughtfully.
Kogoro Mori felt a little nervous being stared at and felt uncomfortable all over.
"Officer Megure, what are you doing? Do you suspect me of murder?"
"Let me be clear, no matter when the case happened, I have an alibi."
Kogoro Maori said this and took two steps forward to the outside of the mixing room.
As soon as he turned around, he noticed Xiang Yuanguang who was observing Yefang Daoyan's body.
(I was wondering why Xiang Yuan left so early. It turns out he went to investigate a case.)
(Damn it, did Inspector Megure actually ask Xiang Yuanguang to help first?)
(You don’t even call me Detective Maori Kogoro. It’s too cold. The relationship has faded.)
Detective Maori was having wild thoughts in his mind.
Then, Inspector Megure patted Detective Mori on the shoulder, took him aside, and said meaningfully.
"Brother Maori, why are you involved in this case again? I always see you at the crime scene."
"I originally thought it was Brother Xiang Yuan's problem, but now it seems that you are the one who is unlucky."
"...?"
Kogoro Mori asked a question.
When I put a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.
What do you mean you always see me at the crime scene? Don't you have any other places to meet me?
Waving his hand, Detective Maori didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, he muttered.
"I'm a famous detective. What do you mean I'm the one with bad luck?"
"The crime scene of every case is there, isn't it Conan's... eh? Conan?"
Uncle Maori suddenly had an idea.
I guess this kid is not really a human-shaped self-propelled bad luck machine, right? He will die wherever he goes.
Sure enough, we still have to find a time for this kid's parents to come and pick him up.
Really, how could they leave their child to live in someone else's home without any hesitation and have never contacted them once...
"Uncle Maori, you are here too?"
Noticing the conversation behind them, he turned his head towards Yuan Guang.
This time, his eyes were serious and solemn.
It's completely different from his usual cheerful appearance.
Uncle Maori was being stared at by Xiang Yuanguang and suddenly became serious.
He is the famous detective Kogoro Mori, and he cannot be suppressed by an up-and-coming talent.
After slacking off on two cases, I must at least show off my abilities as the sleeping detective.
I saw Kogoro Mouri lift the blockade up and then walked into the mixing room.
He looked around at the layout and situation in the mixing room.
First, the most eye-catching bloodstains.
There was a large pool of blood on the window, sliding down, which was as expected, the mark left by the deceased.
Then, there were several bullet holes on the mural next to it and on the wall as well.
It should be the trace left after shooting with a gun.
Detective Maori moved closer to Michihiko Yawata's body.
He touched his chin and showed his true strength.
(Well, if not unexpected, this was a shooting case.)
(The murder weapon should be the pistol that fell next to Yafu Michihiko.)
(Combined with the crime scene, the situation is very obvious.)
All the clues are connected in Kogoro Mori's mind.
He looked at Xiang Yuanguang with great confidence and said.
"I already know the truth of the case!"
Xiang Yuanguang was shocked. "What?"
Inspector Megure was also shocked.
"What?"
Even Detective Maori himself was shocked afterwards.
"what?"
"...? What are you surprised about? Didn't you say that?"
Xiang Yuanguang was speechless and looked towards the door.
Considering that the Death God Elementary School Student is not at the door now, it is impossible that Conan is speaking in Maori's voice.
In response, Kogoro Mori touched the back of his head awkwardly and said sheepishly.
"Oh, I'm just wondering why you guys are acting like it's incredible that I got the truth."
"I'm a famous detective, right? I just can't sleep after solving these cases."
Inspector Megure shook his head.
That's right, Detective Maori was indeed very energetic during these times, with no signs of falling asleep.
Really, if Detective Maori doesn't sleep, won't he only be able to give wrong answers?
Could it be that Xiang Yuan's idea was to use gross profit to eliminate the wrong answer? Impossible? This is a trick.
"The murderer must have entered through the door of the mixing room."
"He pointed a handgun at the deceased, forced the deceased against the window, and then shot the deceased."
"Look, the bullet holes on the body of the deceased and the large pool of blood on the window all prove this."
Detective Maori analyzed.
"Besides, the murderer's shooting skills must be very poor, and the bullet trajectory is flying all over the place."
"I fired several rounds of bullets at the side before I shot the deceased."
After hearing this, Inspector Megure nodded repeatedly.
Xiang Yuanguang next to him touched his chin, feeling something was wrong.
He thought the murderer must have fired a gun in the prop warehouse on the seventh floor, but why were there so many bullet holes in the mixing room, and why did the victim die in this way and leave bloodstains on the window?
If he slid down, it could only be that he was shot near the window, then stepped back, fell against the window, and then slid down from the window, leaving the bloodstain, right?
"Inspector Megure, there was a shooting on the fourth floor. There should have been a lot of noise. The staff on the fourth floor should have heard the shooting, found the deceased, and called the police, right?"
When Kogoro Maori saw that Genmitsu didn't say anything, he became more certain that his reasoning was correct.
He continued his analysis smugly, and then saw Genmi Mitsuki and Inspector Megure staring at him without saying a word.
"W-Why are you looking at me? Did I say something wrong? Where?"
Detective Maori was confused.
"No staff on the fourth floor heard the gunshots at the time of the incident because the deceased had left all the staff on the fourth floor beforehand and asked to be left alone. I led the security personnel to this place and called the police."
Xiang Yuanguang said, which shocked Maori Kogoro.
Uncle Maori swallowed his saliva, pointed at Xiang Yuanguang and said in disbelief.
"So, you also had the time to commit the crime, and you are also a suspect!?"
"Yes, I also had a blank period for a period of time, so I am also a suspect."
Xiang Yuanguang confirmed what Maori Kogoro said. He guessed that there would be no other information here.
So he presented his idea to Inspector Megure.
"I want to meet the people who work in the studio and the people who are invited to participate in the show."
“So as to hear relevant testimony.”
Inspector Megure had no reason to refuse, so he nodded.
The three of them went around the blockade of the mixing room and came to a wider corridor.
But no one expected that he would just arrive in the corridor and meet everyone in the recording studio.
Then a strange voice sounded from beside Xiang Yuanguang.
"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, I haven't seen you for three years. How are you doing lately?"
