Chapter 720 What? Director Ochiai can do it, but Dean Muramatsu can’t?

Kogoro Mori's voice sounded very proud.

He had a digital camera in his hand, which was previously carried by the college student Iide Toshiyuki, and some photos were taken with it.

These photos were taken between the first movie shown in the theater today and the second movie at the time of the incident.

Not only can you see movie images projected onto the screen using a projector, you can also take pictures of some things inside the cinema - including a very important photo.

In the photo, Akio Muramatsu clearly stood up and walked outside.

"It's obvious, Mr. Muramatsu, that you are the murderer, and this photo is the evidence."

The sleeping detective fixed his sight on the place where the body was previously located.

It was right behind the theater's viewing seats, and a noose with nothing hanging on it was placed there, and next to it was a scaffolding, and there were a lot of miscellaneous items on the ground.

Logically speaking, these debris should be cleaned up directly by the police officers from the forensic department.

However, Chiba Kazunobu lacked experience in handling cases and was cautious in everything, so he simply asked the police to set up a blockade and keep everything as it was at the time of the crime.

Kogoro Maori said with certainty.

"Because today is the last day of the theater's operation and the theater will start to close tomorrow, he came here to take pictures today. The deceased was found at the back of the theater's viewing seats."

"Therefore, the murderer could only be someone who was present at the back of the theater during that time."

"Obviously, Mr. Iide was sitting in the back taking the photo, and Mr. Furuhashi and Ms. Yuriko had alibis, so the only possible cause of death was Mr. Muramatsu who left the table in the middle of the meal."

"As for the motive... just ask the owner of a nearby store and you'll know."

"The deceased, Zhang Tian Zhengci, had been trying to buy this cinema. He would come to the cinema every now and then to cause trouble and try to ruin the business of the cinema. Rumors of quarrels and conflicts between them have been circulating in the area for a long time."

"If Mr. Muramatsu was dissatisfied with the victim's unreasonable behavior and could no longer tolerate it, he committed the crime..."

“I think it works.”

Hearing this, Gu Qiao Nian, an old employee of the cinema, was shocked and quickly retorted.

"How is that possible? The old dean is already over 60 years old. There is no way he can hang up Zhang Tian Zhengci, who is still in his prime. Even if we just look at his physical condition and strength, it is impossible for him to do it, right?"

However, upon hearing this, Kogoro Mori raised his eyebrows and then replied.

“Why can’t we do that?”

"I once handled a vicious murder case that happened in an art gallery. The circumstances of the case were almost identical to the one that happened in the cinema now. In both cases, someone was making trouble unreasonably, and then the curator killed someone."

"And the curator is over seventy years old."

"He was wearing a full set of medieval armor and holding a heavy knight's sword, and then he nailed the victim to the mural with one sword. I don't think that his age alone can mean that Dean Muramatsu cannot be the murderer."

"Or is there anyone else who can serve as Dean Muramatsu's alibi?"

After saying this, Kogoro Maori turned his head to look at another witness in this case.

Iide Teruhito shook his head, indicating that Dean Muramatsu had indeed left during that time period. Yuriko Yuriko, who was standing next to him, was a little unhappy and spoke directly.

"No, I can serve as Dean Muramatsu's alibi..."

"The air-conditioned room is inside the cinema. Excuse me, Ms. Yuriko, since you want to provide an alibi for Dean Muramatsu inside the cinema, and also provide an alibi for Mr. Furuhashi in the projection room, are you giving false testimony?"

At this time, Kizuki Hotaru finally spoke, her eyes fell on Yuriko Yuri.

As an internal staff member of the theater, Yuriko Yuri's testimony was too biased. Obviously, in order to prevent the theater staff or the director from being charged with murder, she could commit perjury.

For witnesses like this, the credibility of all their testimonies will be questioned.

"Yes, isn't this perjury? Ms. Yuriko, please think twice before you act."

Inspector Megure also reacted and made a few serious comments.

This is a criminal case involving human life, and it is no joke. The credibility of Yuriko Yuriko's testimony has declined, which only means that all four people in the theater may be the murderer.

Because Akio Muramatsu was photographed leaving the viewing seat, Hitoshi Iide was alone at the time of the crime, Yuriko Tomoko kept jumping around and her testimony was unreliable, and her alibi to Nishiki Gotoku also lost credibility.

Inspector Megure even believes that this case may be a joint crime committed by people inside the cinema!
Yuriko Yuri subconsciously took two steps back, her face a little gloomy, but she didn't say anything more.

In the corner, the elementary school student named Death who had been paying attention to the conversation between the few people pushed up his plain glasses.

In his opinion, Iide Teruhito and Muramatsu Akio are definitely not the murderers, and the real murderer should be one of Yuriko Tomoka and Furuhashi Niru.

Although the director Ochiai I met at the beginning was indeed still in good shape.

However, Muramatsu Akio's physical fitness is obviously not as good as that of Director Ochiai. If he wants to kill Zhang Tianzheng, he must join forces with Iide Teruhito, and the two of them must act together————

However, if Iide Teruhito really teamed up with Muramatsu Akio to kill Aida Masatsugu.

Then, there was absolutely no need for Iide Teruhito to take or keep the photo of Muramatsu Akio leaving the table. If they were working together, wouldn't he be afraid that his teammates would drag him down with them if he stabbed them in the back?

Yuriko Tori's testimony is not credible, as Furuhashi Niru's physical fitness is sufficient to complete the crime alone.

If it was said that these two people teamed up to kill Zhang Tianzhengci, it would not be hard to believe...

"Is there a possibility that the deceased actually committed suicide?"

At this time, Gu Qiao Nian suddenly proposed a completely different possibility.

Hearing this, everyone on the field turned their attention to Gu Qiao Nian.

The staff member with a pointy head said seriously.

"Zhang Tian Zhengci is a complete rotten person. He often goes to underground casinos to gamble and owes a lot of money."

"He couldn't even afford to pay his own company's salaries. This is not just something I said, everyone knows about it. That's why he wanted to buy out the cinema to make up for his losses."

"Isn't it possible that Zhang Tianzheng committed suicide because he owed too much debt and couldn't pay it back?"
