Chapter 1406: Investigation of the Fruit Festival
On February 29th, Sunday, afternoon, Morimoto Confectionery Main Store.
Mori shamelessly followed behind the Megure Police Department and sneaked into the cordon. Yamazaki, Mei Daiko, Sonoko, Ran, Conan, Haibara, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta nine people also sneaked in under Mori's credit.
Sachiko Hashigaki's body is still in the hall, but after seeing a lot and being mentally prepared, Ayumi and the others are not too scared.
The Mumu Police Department said: "The time of death was between 12:00 and 12:30 noon. The cause of death was a blow to the back of the head with a blunt object, which caused the skull to rupture. The murder weapon was a rolling pin like this. It has been sent back for testing." Pointing to the rolling pin on the table.
Looking at the three suspects, Maeda Takeshi, Fujino Yasuo, and Morimoto Tomomi, Mori asked, "Which one of you does this rolling pin belong to?"
Maeda said: "This kind is not for anyone, but for the kitchen. Anyone can get it."
Fujino Yasuo said: "Our rolling pins were all in the booth before, and they have been taken away by the police."
"Cough," Megure Police Department said, "Mr. Maeda Takeshi, Mr. Fujino Yasuo, and Ms. Morimoto Tomomi, someone saw the three of you going in and out of here, now please tell me, when did you come here, why did you come here? Met Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko."
Maeda said: "I came after eleven o'clock, I don't know the exact time, because the ingredients I brought with me ran out, and I kept making cakes here until the president came over, and then I left around 12:50 of."
Megure Police Department asked: "Why do you make cakes here?"
“Because it’s quiet here, the food court is too noisy,” Maeda said.
"That," Fujino Yasuo said, "Officer, I have something to say."
"Please tell me." Megure Police Department said.
Yasuo Fujino said: "It only takes about five minutes to go back to the food court from here, and it was already after 12:20 when Tomomi and I saw Maeda in front of the stall in the food court." Then he asked Morimoto Tomomi, " Yeah?"
"Miss Morimoto Tomomi?" Megure Police Department confirmed.
"No." Morimoto Tomomi said, "When I went back, I noticed that Mr. Maeda's booth had cakes."
Mori asked: "Then have you seen Mr. Maeda?"
"That's not true." Morimoto Tomomi said.
Megure Police Department asked: "Mr. Maeda, where have you been during this time? What did you do?"
Maeda said, "After I put the cake down, I took off my chef's uniform and went to eat."
"Eat?" Maori didn't believe it.
"Of course people have to eat." Maeda said, "There is no rule that bakers must eat cakes."
"Uh..." Mao Li was so blocked that he couldn't speak.
Megure Police Department asked: "So, Mr. Maeda, where did you go?"
"It's the burger restaurant next to Mihua Park." Maeda said, "I wasn't wearing a chef's uniform at the time, so I wasn't conspicuous, and there were many people in the restaurant. I don't know if anyone noticed me."
Megure police department ordered: "Takagi, take Mr. Maeda for a run."
"Yes, the police department." Officer Takagi replied.
"Cough," Megure Police Department said, "Mr. Fujino, please tell me about your situation."
"Okay, officer." Fujino Yasuo said, "I came to the store with Tomomi to pick up the ingredients. It was around 12:8, and the president was still here, and we went back around 12:10. "
"That's right." Morimoto Tomomi said.
Mao Li asked back: "At this time, do you remember clearly?"
"That's what the president said." Fujino Yasuo smiled, "She said, 'It's 12:8, I'll give you three minutes to get things, and then hurry back to me.'"
"after,
The president said, "Twelve ten, the action is quite fast, let's go now, don't keep the guests waiting, I will clean up here." ’” said Tomomi Morimoto, “and then we went back. "
"So that's it." Megure Police Department asked, "So, did you see Mr. Maeda on the way? Whether it was when you came or left?"
"I've never seen it before." Morimoto Tomomi said.
Fujino Yasuo said: "It should be that I got off in the Mihua Park. There are really many people in the Mihua Park today."
The Mugure Police Department asked: "You returned to the booth at about 12:15. You didn't see Mr. Maeda, but you saw his cake."
"Yes." Tomomi Morimoto said, "But I saw cakes at Mr. Maeda's booth."
"Mr. Fujino?" Megure Police Department asked.
"I really didn't notice." Fujino Yasuo said, "I was going to go to the bathroom when I came back to the store, but I ran into the president, so I went back to the booth and put down the things in my hand. I took off my chef uniform and went to the bathroom, and when I returned to the booth, Tomomi was not there."
"Is that so," Mumu Police Department asked, "Then, Miss Tomomi, you..."
"That," Tomomi Morimoto was a little embarrassed, "I also changed clothes and went to the bathroom, but the queue was very long, and it took a while, but after I went back, Mr. Maeda came back."
Mao Li said: "That is to say, the two of you also have no alibi."
Fujino Yasuo shrugged, "You can say that." Then he said, "However, I think you have to rule out other foreign criminals first. No one can be sure, and no one else has come here."
The Mumu Police Department said: "However, the three of you also happen to have a motive for killing."
Morimoto Tomomi's expression changed, and then she lowered her head.
Fujino Yasuo said: "I owe the president money, and the president still insists on resigning me on this ground. We had a quarrel, but the amount of money is not enough to kill her. On the contrary, Maeda , the money he owes the president is several times that of me."
"Who knows about this kind of thing." Mao Li said, "I have seen a lot of incidents where people get angry and then kill people in a quarrel. It happens that the murder weapon is a rolling pin. If it is someone else, it should be a knife. It must be you guys. Master Guo, you have always been comfortable with the rolling pin, so you will use the rolling pin as the murder weapon."
Fujino Yasuo said: "You are making too much sense."
The Mumu Police Department asked: "So, Miss Tomomi, what do you have to say?"
Morimoto Tomomi shook her head and said, "I didn't do this."
Maori asked: "Police, what's the reason for Ms. Tomomi?"
Megure Police Department said: "I heard from the old employees of the Morimoto Confectionery Main Store that this Morimoto Confectionery Chain Store was originally owned by Ms. Tomomi's family and was run by Ms. Tomomi's father. Later, Mr. Morimoto did not manage well and had to sell the entire club. I gave it to Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko, and at the same time agreed not to change the name of the club until his death."
Maori said, "Oh, no wonder it's called Morimoto Kayo."
Megure Police Department said: "Miss Tomomi has been working here with her family's confectionery skills. Before Mr. Morimoto passed away due to illness, Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko wanted to change the name of Morimoto Confectionery. Miss Tomomi once went to Hashigaki Sachiko for this. Ms., I was reprimanded by Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko."
Mao Li said: "So that's how it is, for the painstaking efforts of my father's life."
"No." Tomomi Morimoto said anxiously, "Father is grateful for the president taking over Morimoto Confectionery, which is run by his father, because it keeps most of the employees' jobs."
Mori said: "Don't quibble, I don't believe you don't resent Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko."
"It would be a lie to say that I didn't care at all." Morimoto Tomomi said, "But I really didn't kill the president."
At this time, the Meguro Police Department received a call that there was Maeda Takeshi's fingerprints on the murder weapon.
"The murderer is Maeda Takeshi." Mori said, "He took advantage of the gap and ran back to kill Ms. Hashigaki Sachiko, because people are familiar with him wearing a chef uniform, so when he takes off the chef uniform, he will no longer provoke her." People are paying attention."
At this time, Officer Takagi came back with Gang Maeda, "Report to the police department, Mr. Maeda's alibi has been found."
Megure police department asked: "Oh, what is it?"
Officer Takagi said: "When Mr. Maeda was eating, a reporter covering the Fruit Food Festival was also eating. This reporter recognized Mr. Maeda and took a photo of him. After hearing about the incident, the reporter ran to help Maeda. Mr. testified."
Megure Police Department asked, "Where is this reporter?"
Officer Takagi said: "I went to develop the film with the forensic personnel."
The Megure Police Department asked: "So, Mr. Maeda, your fingerprints are on the murder weapon. What's your explanation?"
Maeda said: "I used to tidy up the kitchen utensils, I must have encountered them at that time, and then the murderer happened to use them."
Fujino Yasuo said: "Officer, Maeda may find witnesses, so Tomomi and I may be able to."...
