Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 116 Hida Financial Case, Mouri Exclusion Act

"The deceased is Mitsuhiro Hita, fifty-three years old this year, the cause of death was asphyxiation caused by potassium cyanide..."

It didn't take long for the police to arrive at the scene, and the police officer Megure was still leading the team. When he saw Gao Cheng and Mao Li were there, his mood was quite delicate.

"Officer Mu Mu, the time of death should be between 8:30 and 9:00 p.m., and he was still counting money at 8:30." Gao Cheng watched the anti-theft video at the office together.

The video camera was facing the office door, and it happened to record the scene where the three employees of Feitian Finance left after get off work, and the president of Feitian locked the door by himself. The time was 7:4.

It was not until two hours later that Gao Cheng, Mao Li and his group appeared in the camera, and there were no other suspicious people in or out.

In addition to the 34-year-old Nanze Shangshan, the man who helped open the door before, the other three staff members were called to the scene soon.

Takako Fujii, a 29-year-old female employee, looks quite bad-tempered while smoking a cigarette, while Hiroshi Iino, a 31-year-old tall male employee with a long face, is more restrained...

"Officer Megure," Uncle Maori suddenly snorted confidently, "The only thing that can be poisoned at the scene is this cup of coffee. I think one of the three of them must have poisoned the coffee."

Female employee Takako Fujii lit a cigarette, exhaled smoke and said, "That's the coffee I made for the president before I left the company..."

"That's you!" Uncle Maori pointed at the female staff with certainty, "I think you probably painted poison on the coffee cup!"

"Wait for me!" The female employee frowned, "Why would I do such a thing? The president had already drank coffee at that time!"

"This..."

"Maori detective," the police officer helped explain, "neither the coffee nor the coffee cup was tested for toxic reactions."

"Really?" The uncle's face sank, and he said depressedly, "If there is no poison in the coffee, how did President Feitian get poisoned?"

Gao Chengwei twitched the corner of his mouth and said nothing. Uncle Mao Li is not useless in solving the case. Maybe you can refer to the "Maori Exclusion Method" for criminals.

"Speaking of which," Nanze Shangshan explained, "Our president has a habit of counting money, he will fan the money, and then lick his thumb to count the banknotes..."

"Thumb licking?" Uncle Mao Li was surprised, and asked several staff members back,

"Who is it that handed over the money to your president?"

The male employee, Iino Hiroshi, responded, "It's me."

"Hehehe, that's easy to say," Uncle Mori pointed at Hiro Iino confidently again, "You are the murderer, Mr. Iino! You have painted these banknotes with poison beforehand, haven't you?"

"Ah?" Iino Hiroshi said anxiously in cold sweat, "I didn't apply poison!"

The previous forensic officer interjected: "The victim's right thumb and several banknotes did have poisonous reactions, but the poison attached to the banknotes is the same as the fingerprint on the deceased's thumb, which should be from the victim's thumb. stained with poison..."

Mao Li's face sank, and he approached the forensics personnel suspiciously: "Have you really checked it out? Are you playing with me?!"

"Uh," the forensic officer took a step back and continued to explain, "In this president's room, apart from the victim's thumb and the face of a few banknotes, only the doorknob and the door on the inside of the room had toxic reactions. The lock knob..."

Before Uncle Mao Li could speak, the forensic personnel quickly explained: "However, the poison on the doorknob and door lock also matches the victim's fingerprints, and it should have appeared after being touched by the thumb."

"In other words, President Fei Tian probably encountered the poison outside the president's room..."

Gao Cheng focused his attention on the employee Nan Ze. Uncle Maoli suspected two people, and now only Nan Ze was left. Although there is no scientific basis, it is quite possible to find the truth in reverse with the uncle.

And it is indeed a coincidence that Nanze came back...

"By the way, Kido," Conan said in a low voice when he saw the police begin to check the outside office, "The victim seemed to be in a panic when he answered the phone before. Could it be that he left the room in the middle of counting the money? Now The question is what did he touch, and how did he get to touch it?"

"If you say that, it's probably a mobile phone," Gao Cheng stared at the employee Nan Ze and said, "This person left his mobile phone in the office. If he was calling and asked the president to go out to pick it up..."

"But that can't guarantee that the victim's right thumb is stained with poison, and he picked up the phone without hesitation when he entered the office." Conan looked at Nanze who was biting his thumbnail on the other side, "There should be no poison on his phone." That's right."

"It seems so."

Gao Cheng had no choice but to wait for the police officers to finish their investigation.

This company is neither big nor small, and it takes a lot of time just to check the office. The first thing to check is the places that President Hida is more likely to touch. In addition, Nanze's mobile phone is also included in the scope of inspection.

"Dididi!" Gao Cheng's cell phone rang at this moment.

"Hello, I'm Kido Takasei..."

Gao Cheng walked to the scene and answered the phone. After listening to a few words, his expression immediately became complicated.

"Sorry, there have been a lot of things recently. You also know about the Kaitou Kidd before... Yes, don't worry, the entrustment has been completed by me, and I will hand it over to you after I finish the case in hand..."

"What's the matter?" Conan looked at Gao Cheng strangely. He saw that Gao Cheng was quite free these days, otherwise he wouldn't come to play mahjong.

"A little thing."

Gao Cheng's face was slightly bitter, and he didn't say anything to Conan.

It's like when I was still in school, I didn't find out that I didn't write my summer homework until the end of the summer vacation. De close-range photos, the result he completely forgot.

Unlike summer homework, he has nowhere to copy...

Now how to take a temporary photo? Kuroba Kaito doesn't seem to be able to act again for a short time. Are you going to tie that guy up?

Want to take a selfie?

"Hey! What are you doing?! Don't touch things!" Gao Cheng's thoughts were interrupted by a loud noise from outside the president's room. It turned out that the female staff member boiled water and made tea in the tea room without authorization, causing Mu Mu to scold him loudly.

"You haven't touched anything else since you got here, have you?" Mumu asked cautiously.

"The police are watching, and I can't touch it even if I want to," Fujii Takako snorted softly with a cigarette in his mouth, "But I went to the toilet once..."

Iino Hiroshi also explained: "I also went to the toilet after her, and the police saw it, so I should know."

"Oh, is that so?" Mu Mu said unhappily, "Apart from going to the toilet? Did you touch anything else?"
