Chapter 130: Knife marks on the cabinet


   May 19, Sunday, evening, Maru Fu's House.
   After listening to the two messages, after a while, I still didn't hear any more messages. Mr. Akutsu said: "It's strange, I obviously left a message, why is there no mine?"
   Mumu Police Department asked: "Oh, what did you say?"
   Mr. Akuzu said: "What I said is that although it will arrive a little later, I will definitely pay back the money, so if you sell that, I will definitely kill you."
   "Kill it?" Momi Police Department asked back.
"No, no," Mr. Akutsu said hastily, "I was just scaring him." Then he explained, "He said, if I can't repay the money, I will sell the sculptures I pledged. "
   Megome Police Department asked, "What kind of sculpture is it?"
Pointing to the top of the cabinet with knife marks in the reception room, Mr. Akuzu said, "It's the dragon." Then he walked over, looked carefully, and smiled, "Great, nothing. Scars."
   Looking at the three damaged accessories next to him, Conan said, "Uncle, you are so lucky. The only thing that has been chopped up in the room is the carving."
   "Huh?" Looking around the reception room, none of the other furnishings are intact. The Megumi Police Department asked, "Mr. Akutsu, what's your explanation for this?"
"You killed Mr. Marufu, and then you wanted to blame Suwa for the crime," Mouri said, "Unfortunately, you made two mistakes. The first is that you made the victim hold the knife in the opposite direction. The other thing is that there are no scars left on the dragon carvings. Even if you want to blame, you can't let the carvings that are more important than life suffer any harm." Then asked, "Is that right?"
   "I don't know how to do kendo," Mr. Akutsu asked, "how can I beat Marufu?"
   Maori asked, "As long as you get confused, isn't it easy for you to do it?"
   "What are you talking nonsense?" Mr. Akuzu called.
  Momemo Police Department asked: "Then, why are you lying and saying that you left a message in the answering machine?"
   Mr. Akuzu said: "I didn't lie. I called after three o'clock and I really left a message."
"After three o'clock?" Maori said, "After three o'clock, there was indeed a call coming in, but it was very strange." Then he explained, "The phone rang three times this afternoon, and the second and third phones rang. Once, in terms of time, it should have been the call from Dr. Hatano and Mr. Suwa. But the first call from three o'clock rang a lot."
   "I made that call." Mr. Akuzu said immediately, "My phone rang for a long time, and then it got through, but it turned out to be the sound of the answering machine."
   "Ah, this is how we set it up," Mrs. Inako explained. "Our phone is set up so that it will automatically switch to an answering machine after a dozen or so ringings."
"By the way, you heard the ringing of the phone in this reception room, at the scene of Mr. Shimaru Fujiro." Mori asked, "It should have been the time of the crime at that time. Doesn't that mean you are the murderer? ?"
   "You bullshit, I played at home." Mr. Akuzu said.
   Mumu Police Department said, "We will verify this matter."
   "Mr. Akutsu's collateral is a dragon sculpture," Yamazaki whispered, standing behind Mori, "Mr. Suwa..."
   "That's right," Maori asked, "Mr. Suwa, what do you use as collateral? When you borrow money, you should also have collateral?"
   "..." Mr. Suwa replied, "a famous knife."
   "Oh," the police department Megome asked, "So, where is this knife now? Is it in this reception room?"
   Mr. Suwa said, "Not here."
   "Then, Mrs. Inako," the police department Megume asked, "Where does Marufu Jiro usually put these things? Can you take the famous sword?"
"My husband's collection is usually kept in the vault." Mrs. Daozi said, "and the key is in the cabinet in this reception room." He walked to the front of the cabinet and opened a drawer, but Daozi The lady exclaimed immediately, "Ah, it's gone, the key to the vault is gone."
   "What?" The Megome Police Department asked in surprise.
   quickly pulled up other drawers on the cabinet. After a while, Mrs. Daozi exclaimed in surprise: "I found it."
   Mumu Police Department asked: "Are you sure?"
"Yes, it's put in another drawer." After closing the drawers one by one, Mrs. Inako turned around and said, "But, it's strange, my husband usually puts them there." Then she went to the vault with the police officer. .
Conan thought to these drawers. The knife marks on these drawers are not consistent. The cabinets have been changed positions. It turned out to be to cover up the marks on them, so that the room has knife marks everywhere. So this should be There is a death message, as long as you restore it, then you can know who the murderer is.
   Thinking of this, Conan turned around and wanted to ask the maid if he could take a camera, but he was held down by Yamazaki as soon as he turned around.
   Yamazaki asked, "What do you want to do again?"
"I'm going to borrow something." Conan said, and then asked in surprise, "No, you know the clue to the drawer. So you just reminded Uncle Mauri, did you reassemble the drawer and knew that the murderer was him? "
   "Although I haven't regrouped, but if there is no other means and no one else has come, he is the only one who can do it." Yamazaki said, "And you can let Uncle Maori spell it out first."
   "Me?" Conan asked rhetorically.
   "Is it me?" Yamazaki smiled, "I'm too old to play this simple puzzle."
   "Okay, okay," Conan said in a low voice, walking behind Maori, "Ahhhhhhhh, that cabinet drawer seems to be a puzzle."
   "Puzzle?" Looking at the incoherent traces on the cabinet, Maori said, "So..."
  Watching Maori walked to the front of the cabinet, and carefully observed the cabinet, the police department asked: "Maori, you are..."
   "Memo Police Department, look at the traces on the drawer," Maori asked, "Is it impossible to connect the traces on the drawer and the adjacent drawer?"
   "Hmm..." Police Department Megome exclaimed, "Really, if you say that..."
"Death message," Maori said with a smile, "Mr. Marufu must have left a death message on this, so the murderer has changed the position of the drawer randomly, and the knife marks in this room should be to cover up this. The cabinet was made unnaturally."
   "That's good," Megumi said with a smile, "When Mrs. Inako arrives, let her move the drawer back."
   After a while, seeing Mrs. Daozi still not coming, everyone came to the outside of the reception room.
   Seeing Mr. Suwa standing under a tree and walking behind him, Yamazaki said, "Hey."
   was taken aback, Mr. Suwa immediately looked back.
   "Your heart is upset," Yamazaki said, "it's not too late to surrender now."
   "What did you say?" Mr. Suwa asked.
"In the afternoon, meditate in the sword room. You are taking care of your heart after killing someone." Yamazaki said, "The cocoon on your hand is growing again. Taking the knife will still hurt your hand. You can no longer control your heart. ."
   "What did you say?" Mr. Suwa asked in surprise.
"There is a famous knife~EbookFREE.me~ with history and the surname Suwa. What your Suwa family inherited is the technique of the new Yinliu, but it's just a little bit of fur. It can only be said that the history is long enough. For the famous knife, the history is long enough Kikuchiyo can barely be regarded as a hand." Yamazaki said, "Using Kikuchiyo passed down from generation to generation as collateral, no wonder you will be upset, now that the knife is gone, no wonder you will kill."
   "You, you..." Mr. Suwa was speechless in surprise.
   "Uncle Maori asked me to talk about these things," Yamazaki smiled. "He said that he should surrender himself before the investigation results come out."
   "Mao, Maori detective?" Mr. Suwa asked rhetorically.
"Yes," Yamazaki smiled, "Uncle Mori has seen through all your tricks. Mr. Marufu knows that he can't beat you, so he deliberately fought by the cabinet, so that the knife can be split on the cabinet, as long as there are two crosses, then He can leave your hiragana after processing it again. Therefore, after killing Mr. Marufu in order to get acquitted, you hear the phone ring and hear Mr. Akutsu’s message, then wash his message and put it on the cabinet. The drawers were reversed, and when the knife marks were left in the room to cover the name on the cabinet, Mr. Akutsu’s carvings were left behind, wanting to blame him. And when you finally returned the knife, let Mr. Marufu take it back. Alleviate suspicion."
   "It seems that I have been completely seen through by the Maori detective," Mr. Suwa muttered to himself, lowering his head, "My heart is indeed upset, so it took ten knives to kill him, so I did so many things."
   Yamazaki said, "Mrs. Inako is back, it's time to make a decision."
   "I have decided." Mr. Suwa said as he walked to Maori who was standing smoking under a tree alone. ...
