Chapter 1240 The World Line Ends

Haibara Ai didn't believe what she said. She was okay, but Edogawa Conan would never stay where he was without running around.

Fortunately, Conan is considered a semi-professional, and no matter how arrogant he is, he will not destroy the evidence at the murder scene.

The crime occurred at Hiyama's house in Okuho Town.

This is a Japanese-style courtyard nestled in the woods. However, today's Hiyama home is different from the tranquility of the past. There are many people in suits and leather shoes gathered in the courtyard.

"Mr. Agasa, I've been waiting for you for a long time." The person who came out to greet them was Takagi Wataru, an old acquaintance. Even he was surprised when he saw Nobuhiro + Conan + Haibara Ai who were accompanying them, "You..."

Nobushige explained seriously: "I was right next to Officer Megure when he called Dr. Agasa. I was very interested in this case, so I asked to go with Dr. Agasa. Isn't it convenient?"

"Ah, not really." Takagi Sheba was thinking about his words when he saw that these four people had already entered in a big way, and Conan went straight to the place with the most people.

Takagi Wataru: "..."

Well, now it has to be convenient even if it is inconvenient.

Officer Megure's location is easy to find. In addition to the police officers from the First Search Division, there is also a man wearing casual clothes beside him.

Seeing the man's back, Nobuhiro's eyelids suddenly twitched, and a warning bell sounded in his heart.

When the man heard the noise, he turned around and looked at Nobuhiro. He raised a gentle smile and said, "Mr. Asano, long time no see."

Nobushige: "!!!"

"Oh, yes, you guys know each other." Officer Megure didn't seem to be surprised at all why Dr. Agasa brought so many people here. He greeted him cordially and said to Nobushige, "I'd be sorry if you and Mr. Agasa came all the way." I'm sorry to say that, but I thought maybe that pair of scissors had some special meaning, otherwise the deceased wouldn't have been holding it."

"This..." Nobuhiro took a deep breath and struggled to maintain a polite fake smile on his face, "Mr. Okiya, why is he here?"

Akai Shuyi, who was wearing the mask of Subaru Okiya, smiled and said: "I have finished handling my affairs and returned to Tokyo a few days ago. However, the consumption level in Tokyo is very high. If I don't find a job as soon as possible, I may not be able to survive. "

"Are you here looking for a job?"

"To be honest, Mr. Hiyama and I had made an appointment to sign the labor contract today. I didn't expect to find out when we arrived..." Subaru Okiya said with emotion and regret on his face, "Mr. Hiyama is a good man."

Nobuhiro wouldn't believe a word of Akai Shuichi's lies. This man probably came over to investigate because he heard that the murder case of Hiyama Kunihisa was similar to the Haneda Koji case. As for the labor contract, even if there is one, it must have been forged by Shuichi Akai.

Nobushige raised his lips slightly and said mockingly: "Mr. Okiya is so brave, he dared to return to Tokyo without telling his family."

The information he saw on the intranet this morning was probably a false impression calculated by Shuichi Akai to confuse everyone.

Akai Shuichi bowed slightly and said in a volume that only he and Nobushige could hear: "If there is any disclosure during the process, I think the public security will cover it up for me, right?"

Nobuhiro glanced at him: "How about giving it a try?"

The atmosphere between them really didn't feel like old friends reunited after a long separation, or even like a boss and employee meeting again. Instead, it felt a bit like a feud.

Upon seeing this, Officer Megure quickly changed the subject: "Ah, well, since everyone is here, why don't we go to the crime scene first?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Officer Memu wanted to slap himself. As a police officer in the Investigation Section 1 of the Metropolitan Police Department, how could he take the initiative to invite these unrelated people to the murder scene? Especially among these people were two young children.

However, words that were spoken were like water that was thrown out and could not be taken back. Officer Memu had no choice but to grimace and lead these people into the house.

"The deceased was killed outside the house?"

Takagi Wataru explained: "I heard that the victim thought the main house was unsafe and had been staying in the house during this period."

However, the unsafe main house was calm, but a murder occurred in the safe leaving house. It is really sad.

Officer Memu led everyone to the bathroom far away from the house, where the victim was sitting against the wall with blood on his forehead. This victim is somewhat similar to Dr. A Li, at least they are both bald.

Dr. Ali has seen many corpses, but seeing this scene is still a bit difficult to accept.

The scissors he invented were designed to bring joy to the user, had a unique and cute shape, and made a funny clicking sound. At this time, the scissors were held in the hands of the deceased, but its user lost his life.

This is probably the saddest result for scissors. The same is true for Dr. Ali himself.

"Let me introduce the situation." Officer Megure said, "The deceased is the president of a real estate company, Mr. Hiyama Kunihisa, sixty-one years old. He was beaten to death with a blunt instrument. The murder weapon has not been found yet. It is speculated that he should He was killed in another room away from the house, and he stumbled to the bathroom to die. It seems that the murderer came here to give him the final blow."

Seeing that Dr. Ali had been looking at the thing in the deceased's hand, Officer Megure asked expectantly: "Could it be that these scissors are really..."

"No, no, no," Dr. Ali quickly denied, "This is just an ordinary pair of scissors with no special functions."

"That's it." Officer Megure was disappointed.

Nobushige said to Takagi Wataru next to him: "Officer Takagi, can you please get me a pair of gloves? I want to see the condition of the deceased."

Takagi Wataru looked at Officer Megure in embarrassment, and after his boss nodded, he handed his gloves to Nobushige.

Nobuhiro thanked him in a low voice and was about to walk into the bathroom when Shuichi Akai reminded him: "Be careful, there are glass shards at the door."

There were indeed some scattered debris on the bathroom floor, which was the same as the Haneda Koji case seventeen years ago.

"These fragments are of the same type as the glass placed on the sink. It should be considered that the deceased threw it at the murderer, right?" Akai Shuichi asked.

"Yeah." Officer Megure couldn't find the words to refute, so he could only nod.

While they were talking, Nobushige had already walked over to the deceased, squatting down and carefully examining the wound on his forehead.

"The wound was round, with slight cracks in the surrounding skull." Nobuhiro explained calmly, "The murder weapon was a blunt instrument and should have a certain curvature."

"Rice spoon?"

Conan's voice suddenly sounded close at hand, and Nobuhiro glanced at him: "I think golf clubs are more accurate."

Takagi Wataru immediately said: "By the way, when we asked the bodyguard just now, we learned that the deceased had the habit of playing golf."

"The murder weapon has been found." Nobushige stood up and returned the gloves to Takagi Wataru.
