Chapter 142: Pollen on the 15th Floor

Sunday, June 9, morning.

In the 15-story building of Toya Eiko Clothing Company, President Toya took the elevator on the left to the 15th floor among the three elevators. Not long after going upstairs, he took this elevator down again.

Sonoko and Lan in the rest area immediately went up to meet them, and Mouri and Conan, who had just washed their hands, also joined up.

But President Toya didn't look for Ran and the others, but hurried to the front desk and asked Mr. Eda, the security guard on duty, to accompany her to see her secretary, Miss Mika Taniguchi, because she called Miss Mika's mobile phone from the president's office, but No one answered.

Conan whispered to himself: "Why are you so nervous, but no one answered the mobile phone."

However, it seemed that something had happened, because the elevator that Ms. Taniguchi was taking went straight to the eighth floor, and stopped on every floor after that. So, everyone took the elevator on the right that could stop at will, and Yamazaki and Mei Daizi, who were bored, thought they might have something to do, so they came to join in the fun.

On the eighth floor, as soon as he got out of the elevator, President Toya only took one look, and immediately screamed and fell to the ground. Yamazaki, who hadn't gotten out of the elevator, immediately asked Mei Daiko to call an ambulance.

Maori went out and saw that Ms. Taniguchi had been stabbed in the left chest and was lying on her back at the elevator door with her upper body outside and her lower body inside. The elevator door couldn't be closed, so of course it couldn't run.

Maori immediately wanted to go forward, but was stopped by President Toya who was sitting on the ground, because she found shoe prints on the ground while sitting on the ground.

After stepping out of the elevator and taking a look at Ms. Taniguchi, Yamazaki walked over directly.

"Yamazaki, what are you doing?" Maori asked immediately.

"Uncle Maori, how do you know if this person is dead without even looking at it?" Yamazaki said, "I want to confirm."

"Uh..." Mori was speechless for a while, so he asked the others to wait and went to check with Yamazaki.

Touching Miss Taniguchi's neck, Maori said, "It's dead."

Kneeling down to take a closer look at Miss Taniguchi's injuries, Yamazaki said with a smile, "Mei Daiko, come here."

"What are you doing?" Mei Daizi said and walked over.

"Come on, just give her something." Yamazaki stood up and smiled.

"Ah?" Maoli who had just stood up was taken aback, but before he could stop it, Mei Daizi had already moved, no, moved her foot, and kicked Miss Taniguchi's right arm near the shoulder, the deltoid muscle, Let Miss Taniguchi's body shake slightly.

Maori was stunned just as he was about to get angry, because Ms. Taniguchi coughed up a mouthful of blood, then coughed a few times and passed out again.

"She probably had her heart stop beating just now, and she held her breath and suspended animation." Yamazaki explained, "Even if we rescued her, she would still be in a vegetative state, and if I didn't care, because the knife was stuck in the chest, it might have touched the heart. If you are not careful, you will bleed profusely..."

"Mr. Eda, hurry up and call an ambulance." After touching Miss Taniguchi's neck and helping her wipe away the blood from her mouth, President Toya asked, "Then how is she now?"

"The ambulance has been called." Mei Daizi said, "I have also called the police."

"Looking at her luck now, she may be in a vegetable state." Yamazaki said with a smile, "It may also be bleeding too much..."

"Yamazaki," Sonoko asked, "how do you know she's not dead?"

"If it was inserted directly into the heart,

That's too little bleeding. Yamazaki said with a smile, "The ribs are not fake, and as far as the chest is concerned, women are naturally more valuable than men." "

Looking at the door of the elevator, Ms. Taniguchi was still pinched up and down, President Toya said: "Mr. Eda, can you block the door from the inside, please." Then he pressed his hand on the button.

Seeing President Toya rubbing his thumb on the button, Conan thought to himself, what is this for.

After seeing the footprints that President Toya said earlier, a series of footprints walked from the safety exit to the front of the three elevators, then turned back to the door of the middle elevator, and then returned to the safety exit near the left elevator. It was the dust in the safety stairs, and someone came up the stairs and stepped the dust in."

President Toya said: "This must be the robber who wanted to break into the empty door, ran in and found Miss Meixiang, and stabbed her to death."

What she said, Conan thought, she came to confirm if she couldn't get through the phone, as if she knew this kind of thing would happen.

"Bandit? Killer." Yamazaki laughed, "The steps between the footsteps coming in and going out are too balanced. After stabbing someone, they leave in a hurry. And, if it is a robber, the bag in the elevator ,Strange……"

"Strange what?" Molly asked.

Yuanzi said, "The robber will probably take the bag away."

"It's the position," Conan said, "Look, it's on the right side of her body."

"That's right," Ran said, "Miss Taniguchi, like Miss Toya, wears a backpack on her left shoulder."

"This is normal," Maori said. "Ms. Taniguchi dropped her bag when she was assassinated. She was supposed to fall backwards into the elevator, but her feet were unstable, so she turned around and fell outside. The murderer Seeing her fall like this, it is not easy to step over to get the bag, so I gave up."

"And her right shoulder," said Conan, "wrinkled."

Yuanzi smiled and said, "Is that because Mei Daizi kicked it?"

"It was wrinkled in the first place," Mei Daizi said, "There was still blood on it, so I didn't touch it."

"Another strange place," Yamazaki said with a smile, "how could there be blood on it?"

"Well," Molly said, "that's a real problem."  …

A few minutes later, Ms. Taniguchi was carried away, and the Megure Police Department also led a team.

The result of the investigation was that the shoe print was 26 centimeters long, possibly belonging to a man. The shoe print went from the first floor to the eighth floor, and then back to the first floor.

The emergency exit on the first floor leading to the outside was not locked, but the security guard confirmed that it was indeed locked during the last inspection two hours ago, and only the president of Toya has entered and exited the building since then.

President Toya entered the company about an hour ago because he needed to investigate the information. After staying in the president's office for about 30 minutes, he went out through the gate and drank coffee outside.

President Toya's elevator goes up to the fifteenth floor, and Ms. Taniguchi's elevator goes up to the eighth floor, and stops on every floor from the ninth to the fifteenth floor.

After Mrs. Toya got on the elevator, he took the same elevator again, and it took less than three minutes to get back to the first floor.

Returning to the first floor, Maori said: "Mugure Police Department, all this is just like what Ms. Toya said, it was a crime committed when the robber broke into the empty door. The murderer broke open the lock of the emergency exit on the first floor from the outside. After that, he sneaked into the building and climbed the stairs to the eighth floor. When he passed in front of the elevator on the eighth floor, he happened to meet Ms. Taniguchi coming out. The murderer immediately assassinated Ms. Taniguchi, and then used the stairs to escape outside."

"I happened to meet Ms. Taniguchi coming out, and the murderer immediately assassinated Ms. Taniguchi, and then used the stairs to escape outside." Megure police department ordered, "Okay, you investigate the surrounding area immediately." Then he told President Toya He said, "Also, Miss Toya, we need to collect your fingerprints, please cooperate."

President Toya asked: "Mr. Police Officer, do you mean that I am also a murderer?"

"No," Mumu Police Department laughed, "We are trying to find the fingerprints of a murderer who is different from you."

"Basically, it is impossible for you to be suspected," Mao Li said with a smile, "Don't worry."

"Why can't she be the murderer?" Conan asked.

"You idiot," Mori said loudly, "do you know that Ms. Toya and Ms. Taniguchi took two different elevators at the same time, and Ms. Taniguchi was stabbed as soon as the door opened on the eighth floor? At that time, Ms. Toya was on the fifteenth floor, and there was no elevator to the eighth floor. The elevator on the right was on the first floor, and three minutes was not enough. She took the elevator to the fifteenth floor, and then ran to the eighth floor. first floor, then go back to the fifteenth floor, and then take the elevator down.” Then he asked, “You said, how could she stab Ms. Taniguchi who was on the eighth floor?”

Conan said: "However, the suspicion cannot be completely ruled out."

A punch planted a mushroom on Conan's head, Maori said, "Little brat, don't interfere with this kind of professional work."

Lan yelled, "Dad, you don't need to hit anyone, do you?"

"Because talking doesn't work every time," Molly cried.

Holding Conan who was about to run away, Yamazaki said with a smile: "The fifteenth floor, we haven't checked it, maybe there is a special passage."

Megure police department asked: "Miss Toya?"

"Yes." President Toya said immediately.

Mori, Yamazaki, and Conan went up with the Megure police department and forensic personnel. The results of the investigation showed that there were pollen and petals on the carpet between the left-hand elevator to the fifteenth floor and the middle elevator to the eighth-floor elevator. They were sent by Mouri, and the ones that President Toya brought up just now were accidentally dropped on the ground by her.

On the elevator button that goes up to the eighth floor in the middle, there are traces of being pasted with tape. President Toya did not know when it was there.

Back on the first floor, just after sitting down, the forensic personnel came to report that no fingerprints were found on the murder knife or the door on the first floor.

"In that case," Ms. Toya asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Inspector, I still have something to do, can I go back?"

"Okay," Megure Police Department said, "That's it for today."

"Then, Miss Lan, Miss Sonoko," said Miss Toya, "I'm sorry, we'll see each other another day."

Conan whispered, "Yamazaki, it's my turn."

"Yes," Yamazaki asked with a small smile, "but, have you found any evidence?"

"Seeing that she wants to go back, then, that thing should be in her big bag." Conan said, and used an anesthetic needle to make Mao Li who was sitting on the sofa fall asleep. ...
