Chapter 1491: Maori Conflict

February 19th, Saturday, at noon, lunch at Miyamoto's house.

After hearing what Yamazaki said, Mei Daizi was puzzled, "According to what my brother said, the culprit is Shimizu who abandoned his girlfriend, but why him? I mean, why did you think it was him in the first place?" Instead of the one who rented the house? She may also commit murder for money, that is, squandering public funds together."

"First of all, the landlord, Ms. Etsuko, said that Ms. Wenzhi has a close relationship with her, and secondly, Miss Wenzhi has lived there for six years." Yamazaki said, "During the six years, does Miss Wenzhi have the habit of marking the schedule on the wall calendar? Ms. clear."

"Oh." Mei Daizi said, "That is to say, Ms. Etsuko wrote the schedule on the wall calendar, but it shows that she acted out of desperation."

"That's not enough, let's go on." Miko Miyamoto said.

"Well, well," Mei Daizi thought for a while and smiled, "I thought about it, because the time of committing the crime was last night, so if Ms. Etsuko is the murderer, she has enough time to arrange the scene, even if she wants to create a fake itinerary, There is absolutely no need to write by hand and leave words on the calendar.”

"Very good." Miko Miyamoto smiled. ...

Later, the Economic Crime Investigation Division found out that Fumie Ozawa had embezzled a total of 30 million yen in public funds from Shimizu Technology Corporation.

The president of Shimizu Science and Technology Club is Ryota Shimizu, but the shareholders of Shimizu Science and Technology Club are not the Shimizu family alone, there are also venture capital clubs and employees holding shares, so Shimizu Science and Technology Club is not Shimizu's family, otherwise there would be no embezzlement of public funds.

Ryota Shimizu really gambled. It is impossible to find out how much money he lost in total, but it must have exceeded 100 million yen.

Shimizu Ryota once owed more than 20 million yen in debt, but they have been repaid one after another. The repayment date was just after Ozawa Fumie embezzled public funds from Shimizu Technology Corporation.

Although Ryota Shimizu inherited the position of president of Shimizu Technology after his father died and took over the financial power of the family, he and his mother jointly held the shares of Shimizu Technology. The remaining funds are about 100 million yen.

Ryota Shimizu couldn't touch the stocks of Shimizu Technology, and based on the income and expenditure of the tax declaration, and after deducting other expenses, the gambling debt of more than 20 million yen could not be repaid by himself.

Since Ryota Shimizu could not tell the source of the money for repaying the gambling debts, it can be basically concluded that the money for repaying the gambling debts is the embezzlement of money from the Shimizu Technology Club.

According to the investigation of Police Officer Sato, Shimizu Ryota is indeed in contact with the girls of several clubs. It is speculated that the reason why he cannot have a deep relationship on the eve of the relationship is naturally because he still has a girlfriend named Fumie Ozawa.

Regarding the test results of Ozawa Fumie's refrigerator, it was indeed in a low-temperature freezing state for a long time before. Although it is not sure whether large pieces of ice have been produced, it is certain that large pieces of ice can be produced.

In the end, the court held that Shimizu Ryota instigated his girlfriend Fumie Ozawa to help him embezzle public funds from the Shimizu Technology Club in order to repay the gambling debts owed, and killed her cruelly after Fumie Ozawa decided to surrender.

Ryota Shimizu administered sleeping pills to Fumie Ozawa, let her sit on the floor of the bathroom, put ice cubes under her body, and then strangled Fumie Ozawa's neck with a steel wire to take advantage of the body position shift after the ice melted, causing Fumie Ozawa to Slowly strangled to death by steel wire.

The prosecutor asked the court for the death penalty because of Ryota Shimizu's special crime of negligence and murder for money.

However, Shimizu Ryota's defense lawyer said that Ozawa Fumie may have committed suicide because Ozawa Fumie loved Shimizu Ryota so much, so he committed suicide.

Shimizu Ryota didn't know that Ozawa Fumie helped him raise money to pay off his debts by embezzling public funds. Ozawa Fumie hoped that her death would wake up Shimizu Ryota, stop gambling, and find a better woman to marry.

This reason was not adopted, because without the cooperation of Ryota Shimizu,

It is impossible for Fumie Ozawa to embezzle public funds many times, but there is no evidence for this.

Suicide for love is even more unreasonable. For Shimizu Ryota and Ozawa Fumie, 30 million yen can be made up in the future, but when the truth comes out, Shimizu Ryota will definitely resign from the position of president of the club. .

In the end, the evidence for Shimizu Ryota's killing of Ozawa Fumie was indeed not sufficient, and it was still close to convincing evidence, so Shimizu Ryota was sentenced to life indefinitely.

However, that reason became Ryota Shimizu's reason for appealing, but it was really counterintuitive, so none of them succeeded. ...

When the police were investigating the murder, Etsuko Aikawa deliberately gave false testimony, which constituted obstruction of official duties, but the circumstances were not serious, and she was detained for seven days and received education. ...

None of the misappropriated 30 million yen was recovered, and the Maori Detective Agency only received a consolation prize for helping solve the case, which greatly disappointed Maori. ...

Sunday, February 20th, Rice Flower Town.

Lan successfully won the selection of the school's karate department, and will represent her personally and the school in a series of subsequent competitions.

Conan used the voice-changing bow tie to call Ran in the name of Kudo Shinichi at the public phone booth to congratulate her.

After the pot of phone porridge was finished, Conan walked out of the public phone booth and ran back quickly.

Due to the popularity of mobile phones and mobile phones, there are fewer and fewer public telephone booths. It is really troublesome to travel far every time to call Lan. ...

Tuesday, February 22, afternoon, Tokyo Court.

The trial for the murder of Katsugoro Kitamura begins, and Hideri appears as Yuichi Minamida's defense lawyer.

Kitamura Katsugoro was killed in the office of his factory. Nantian Yuichi once visited Kitamura Katsugoro, but there is no evidence to prove that Nantian Yuichi killed Kitamura Katsugoro.

The murder of Katsugoro Kitamura is similar to the murder of Fumie Ozawa, but the key points are different.

Minamida Yuichi had the motive to kill, and he owed money to Kitamura Katsugoro; it's just that Nantian Yuichi himself is the owner of a western restaurant, and his desire to kill is not as urgent as Shimizu Ryota's.

Ryota Shimizu's motive for killing was determined to be to cover up his gambling scandal and conspiracy to embezzle public funds.

Fumie Ozawa was not strangled to death on the spot, but was drugged with sleeping pills and then strangled to death by a steel wire around his neck because the ice cubes melted. From this, it can be inferred that the crime was premeditated by an acquaintance; The suicide note inside showed that her death was related to the misappropriation of public funds, and this locked Ryota Shimizu who used public funds.

Things that are superfluous are often realized after the fact.

Before the incident, Yuichi Minami had visited Katsugoro Kitamura; it was just not sure whether anyone else had been there and killed Katsugoro Kitamura after Yuichi Minami left Katsugoro Kitamura's office.

Although Yuichi Minami has experienced a height difference incident, it cannot be judged on this basis. This incident must have been when Yuichi Minami used Katsugoro Kitamura to climb the triangular ladder and killed Katsugoro Kitamura.

More importantly, there was no blood on the triangular ladder, and there was no blood on the ground that fell from a high altitude. This coincidence prevented the police from proving that the scene of the crime was on the triangular ladder.

The referee only talked about evidence, and lacked key evidence, so he couldn't lock Nantian Yuichi. ...

"According to the police's investigation data, Mr. Nantian was sitting on the ground and stabbed the victim who was on the triangular ladder. From the perspective of distance and angle, it was just right."

"No, Lord Referee, these are just speculations. There is no evidence to show that the scene of the crime is on a triangular ladder."

"The objection is valid, the prosecution prosecutor, there is no need to say things without evidence."...

Fei Yingli took the fact that there was no evidence to prove that the crime scene was on the triangular ladder as a breakthrough, and easily helped Minamida Yuichi complete the defense of innocence. ...

Fei Yingli's temporary rest room.

Yamazaki, Midaiko, Ran, Sonoko, and Conan follow the angry Mouri to find Fei Eri.

"Bastard, you actually defended this murderer." Mao Li slapped the table angrily as soon as he entered the door.

"Damn it," Fei Yingli said angrily, "you have to figure it out, my client is just a suspect. Whether he is a murderer or not is not decided by you, the detective, but by the judge." Then he added , "Even if one of your eyes saw my client murder, the result is not up to you, the detective."

"What are you talking about!" Mao Li was furious.

"Also, if you talk nonsense again, I will sue you for slander on behalf of my client." Fei Yingli said coldly, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, my client is a western restaurant owner, and his reputation affects his business. It will definitely make you lose your fortune."

"You, you..." Mao Li gritted his teeth angrily, unable to speak.

"Hmph." Fei Yingli pushed her glasses, gave Mao Li a contemptuous sideways glance, and walked away with high-spirited steps.

"Ah! I'm so mad..."

Yamazaki quickly grabbed the furious Mao Li to prevent him from doing anything. There are no outsiders here, and the outside is different. Don't be ashamed, what happened is all witnesses.

"Auntie is amazing." Mei Daizi praised.

"It's amazing." Yuanzi praised.

"It's, it's okay." Lan said with a bitter face.

Conan wiped off his sweat. Anyway, I felt a little uncomfortable seeing her.

Yamazaki let go of Mori, and Mori left angrily.

The five of Yamazaki followed, and Mei Daizi and Sonoko gloated about how long Mori and Fei Yingli would be in conflict, which made Lan feel sad. ...
