Chapter 763: Inspector Megure: There are already enough detectives in Beika Town, don’t bring any mo

"Then, where is the murderer?" Hirukawa Riko couldn't help but ask. Seeing how clearly this man spoke, he must know who the murderer is, right?

Unexpectedly, Sera Masumi did not answer, but said: "I think the murderer will be caught soon. Before I came up to the rooftop, I asked the guards to monitor the elevator and stairs."

"What does this mean?" The fat lady said she didn't understand at all.

The uncle was also confused: "Who are you?"

Masumi Sera smiled, and his eyes turned to Yuya, and at the same time glanced at Conan inconspicuously: "I've already told you my name, it's Masumi Sera, and I'm a detective like him."

Detective? Youya narrowed his eyes. Judging from his age, he was another high school detective?

He recalled the high school detectives he knew, Kudo Shinichi, Hattori Heiji, Hakuba Tantei, and Koshimizu Nanatsuki. These people were either important characters or had unusual identities and stories.

So, what is the identity of this Masumi Sera?

This character did not appear in the plot that Yuya had seen in his previous life. Was he a character who appeared after Akai Shuichi was shot in the head by Gil?

Moreover, for some reason, he always felt a sense of familiarity in Sera Masumi, as if he had seen a similar person sometime in the depths of his memory.

···

Soon, Inspector Megure, the hard-working model worker in Beika Town, arrived with his subordinates.

After asking, Takagi Shigeru found out that there was no one else in the annex except this man.

"What, is this true?" Sera Masumi was very surprised.

Takagi Wataru looked at Sera Masumi in a strange way, but still replied: "Yes, according to the testimony of the guards, only a few of you entered and exited this annex."

At the time of the incident, Hirukawa Toshiko and the other two were in the parking lot, Yuya and a few others were talking to the waiter on the stairs below the cafe, and Sera Masumi was discussing room matters at the front desk.

In other words, the deceased was the only one in the entire building when he fell from the building.

"By the way, who are you?" Inspector Megure asked Sera Masumi in confusion. Why did this questioning tone feel so familiar?

Hirukawa Riko said, "He said he was a detective."

"Detective?" Takagi Shigeru was very surprised.

Inspector Megure rolled his eyes: Another troublesome guy has come, that's enough, there are already enough detectives in Beika Town, can we not add more?

He doesn't want to work overtime every day!

Sera Masumi pinched his chin and muttered, "But why is this man there? Didn't they say that the annex is under renovation and can't provide accommodation?"

Inspector Megure explained that the deceased was the son of the hotel owner, and was specially allowed to live in the annex in order to avoid media attention.

"Huh? Is this person a celebrity?" asked Masumi Sera in confusion.

Inspector Megure nodded. "Yes, he was once arrested for being the mastermind of a fraud group, but was later released due to insufficient evidence. Now there are gossip reports about him everywhere."

Takagi added: "Moreover, the incident in which he lost control of his emotions and became violent towards the media after discovering that he was being followed, and smashed the window glass on the sixth floor of the annex with a fire extinguisher has not yet subsided.

Some people speculated that the hotel could not allow him to continue living here and causing trouble, so they cleared out the guests under the pretext of renovating the annex and then let him immigrate abroad.

"Yes, yes," Hirukawa Riko nodded repeatedly, "We, the victims, also came here to see him because we heard this rumor."

"Before he flees abroad, at least let him apologize..."

Inspector Megure asked: "So have you seen the deceased?"

Hirukawa Riko nodded and said, "Yes, I went to his room first, and then he suddenly cried and said he was willing to plead guilty and apologize, but asked us to wait for a while until he sobered up.

We thought that we had to wait anyway, and we also wanted to record his confession and apology, so the three of us prepared to go to a nearby electronics store to buy recording equipment.

Who would have thought that after we got in the car, when I was halfway backing up, he suddenly fell in front of us..."

Takagi Wataru leaned close to Inspector Megure's ear and whispered, "If the car was halfway backed up, it's possible that the deceased was tied to the car with a rope or something like that, right?"

Inspector Megure nodded: "Has anyone come into contact with your car or body since the incident?"

"This..." Hirukawa Riko hesitated.

"I don't think so." After hearing the details of the incident, Youye finally stood up and said, "After the victim fell, Ms. Hirukawa said she saw a suspicious figure on the roof, so a few of us went to the roof to check, but unfortunately the figure might have been a mistake.

But I asked Mio and the guards to watch the scene, so no one should have come into contact with the car or the body, right?"

Miyano Shiho nodded: "No one else showed up, and the scene remains the same."

Inspector Megure pondered and said, "So if there was any tampering, we can still find traces. Let the forensic department conduct a thorough inspection of the scene immediately!"

"Yes!" Takagi Wataru responded.

Sera Masumi suddenly said, "There is something very strange."

"What's the matter?" Inspector Megure looked over quickly.

Shira Masamune said, "Just now when I was waiting for the elevator to come down, the elevator did stop for a while on the sixth floor and the second floor."

"The elevator stopped? When did it happen?" Inspector Megure asked hurriedly.

Masumi Sera: “After the man fell from the building and caused a commotion, Detective Kamiya took the elevator with the others to the rooftop.

When the elevator went up, it went straight to the rooftop and I didn't hear anything in the middle, but when it came down, it took even longer."

Takagi Shigeru said: "The hotel said that because Mr. Kamijuma is the only one staying here, only one elevator is functioning properly."

"In that case," Inspector Megure tilted his head slightly and looked at the annex behind him, "maybe there are other people hiding in the annex?"

Gao Mushi said in a deep voice: "It is possible. We have blocked the entrance and exit of the annex, but we have not received any reports of suspicious persons."

Yuya asked, "Where are the surveillance cameras? They should be installed in the elevator and staircases, right?"

Takagi Shigeru shook his head regretfully: "Because of what happened before, the deceased spray-painted graffiti all over the annex, and of course the camera was not spared. The picture captured was completely black, and nothing could be seen."

Youye touched his chin and said, "So, no matter what someone does in the annex, no one will see it?"

It's the perfect place to set up a murder scene!
