293. Terrible Power! Shocked Xiao Ran
As soon as Etsuko picked up the handkerchief, a gunshot was heard.
The sound was so loud that even Wu Fan and others downstairs heard it.
Ran Mouri asked worriedly: "What is that sound?"
Wu Fan replied: "It seemed like gunshots."
At this time, Etsuko was still knocking on the door.
"Mom, open the door quickly! Mom, open the door quickly!"
At this time, Wu Fan and others came to the second floor.
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Did something happen?"
Etsuko turned to look at everyone: "Something bad happened! My mother's room...~"
"Sister, are there any strange noises in your room?" asked Koji who rushed over.
Etsuko looked panicked: "You're absolutely right! There was gunshots just now in mom's room - ah."
Later, Mouri Kogoro inspected the door.
"The door is locked from the inside, where is the backup key?"
Etsuko replied: "No, the key to this door is specially made, it's just the one my mother had.
"In this case, the only way is to open the door." Haoji suggested.
"DEL."
Wu Fan volunteered: "I'll do it.
Ran Mouri asked worriedly: "Can you? Do you want my help?"
"Don't worry, give it to me." Wu Fan said confidently.
With a strength value of 120, it finally comes into use.
I saw Wu Fan crashing into the door unceremoniously.
His impact force was relatively strong, and he successfully knocked open the locked door.
Ran Mouri looked shocked: "Wow, that's amazing."
"Hmph, good boy, you have a chance." Mouri Kogoro rarely praised Wu Fan.
The room was dark and nothing could be seen.
Mouri Kogoro asked everyone: "Where is the indoor light switch?"
Etsuko said: "It's on the wall on the left."
When Mouri Kogoro turned on the lights, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.
"ah----!!"
I saw Katsue Furukawa lying dead on the ground.
Etsuko shouted: "Mom, Mom!"
Mouri Kogoro immediately stopped the excited Etsuko and said, "You can't go in now."
"De...."
"This is a murder case, and the crime scene must be kept intact."
"$3,$9..."
As she spoke, Etsuko fell to her knees sobbing.
Mouri Kogoro said to Ran Mouri: "Xiao Ran, call the police immediately."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Wu Fan and Conan came to the body and found that the victim had been shot in the forehead and killed with one shot.
But one thing is strange, there is no considerable blood stain nearby.
There were many footprints on the ground, which led all the way to the window.
Wu Fan and Conan looked out the window and saw a ladder on the ground.
"It seems that the murderer used this ladder." Wu Fan said.
Conan replied: "Yes, but the location of the body...
"Conan, stop running away!" Mouri Kogoro punched Conan on the head and carried him out.
By this time, the police had arrived.
"The deceased's name was Furukawa Katsue. He was 64 years old and was the president of a loan company. The same footprints as those around the body also appeared near the ladder outside the window of this room."
Chiba Kazunobu speculated: "This victim was also attacked three days ago. Could it be the same gangster?"
Conan said: "Uncle policeman, if someone you don't know comes in through the window, wouldn't this mother-in-law be afraid and run towards the door?"
Officer Megure said: "The reason why the body fell next to this window is probably because the victim noticed that there was an intruder and then approached the window to have a clear look. In other words, the victim may have seen the murderer's body. Looks good."
"No matter what, the people who were in this house at the time of the crime should conduct an investigation first."
Takagi Wataru replied: "Yes."
"The following is the situation in which the body was found. When Miss Etsuko Furukawa and Miss Machida Azusa came to the second floor and were about to wake up the victim, they heard gunshots coming from the room. Soon after, Mr. Wu opened the door and entered. In the house, I found the body lying in the house. So far, there should be no mistakes, right?"
Machida replied: "No."
0…Please give me flowers…
Officer Megure asked, "Did anything unusual happen when you heard the gunfire?"
Machida thought for a moment and said, "I remember that when Miss Etsuko was squatting down to pick up the handkerchief that fell on the ground, she heard the gunshot."
Officer Megure asked, "What after the gunfire?"
"It's nothing after that."
Etsuko was a little impatient: "Officer Megure, when are you going to ask?"
Haoji echoed: "That's right, the murderer is probably the guy from three days ago. In this case, that guy should be wanted as soon as possible."
Officer Megure replied: "We have issued relevant wanted orders a long time ago, but judging from the condition of the corpse, the murderer is most likely a person known to the deceased."
Hao Er's face turned ugly: "Someone you know? Do you suspect that we are the murderers?"
Etsuko defended: "I haven't entered my mother's room since I woke up this morning.
Just then, Chiba Kazunobu walked in.
"Officer Megure......"
After listening to what Chiba Kazunobu said, Officer Megure asked: "Ms. Machida Azusa, as far as I know, the victim usually treats you with the utmost humiliation, right? According to the neighbors here, she said to her this evening. You complained a lot, and you said at the time that you absolutely wanted justice."
"..."
.......
Etsuko looked surprised: "Xiaozi...did you really do it?"
Hao Er mocked: "It seems like you really can't hold on any longer."
Machida retorted: "That's not the case. I definitely did not kill Madam. What I said was indeed correct. It was just because I spilled the black tea in Madam's room tonight. The part that got wet was ignored. I wiped everything carefully, whether it was a watch, a TV remote control or a Persian carpet, but my wife still said that I had stained the Persian carpet and asked me to use this year's year-end bonus to repay it, and even asked me to sign an IOU. , that’s why I blurted out that sentence, but as I said just now, when we heard the gunshot, Miss Etsuko and I happened to be standing outside the door together.
