Chapter 517: Nagato's incident


   November 2nd, Sunday, Nagato Residence, the main house, the bedroom of Nagato Dosan.
   After Hattori Heizo left, Maori also planned to leave, but Nagato Dosan asked Maori to stay for his birthday party. Maori agreed with pretentious refusal. Then, Maori's mobile phone rang. Yamazaki arrived, but the gatekeeper refused to let in. Butler Musashinosuke called the concierge and asked them to let Yamazaki in.
   "I haven't asked yet, aren't you together?" Hattori Heiji whispered to Conan.
   "There is a tracing commission, Yamazaki went to do this." Conan whispered, "This commission has been doing this for a long time."
   Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "No wonder the uncle looked so ugly when he heard the missing person."
   After a while, Yamazaki arrived, "Hello, Mr. Nagato, I am Uncle Mouri’s assistant Yamazaki."
   "Hello," Nagato said.
Yamazaki reported the results of today’s investigation to Maori, and there was still no result. "Uncle, so far, colleagues, relatives and friends of that person have said that there is no news about that person, but if it is not credible, I don’t know. This is not the way to continue. I think it will start directly with his insurance. We now have his photo and identification number, and we can check his medical insurance number, check the hospital he went to recently, and then just pay for it and ask someone to pay attention to him."
   "Okay." Maori said painfully.
   "What's the matter?" Hattori Heiji asked Conan in a low voice.
   "Consignment fee, the person who ran away owed the client 10 million yen. The client said that after finding the person, he would give his uncle 50% of the money back." Conan laughed softly.
   "So many? Well, that's not right," Hattori Heiji thought for a while, and asked with a smile, "What if you can't get it back?"
   Conan shrugged, "Of course there is no money left."
   "No way? That's bad." Hattori Heiji smiled.
   "What's worse is the addition of travel expenses and food expenses. Uncle has already posted at least 400,000 yen." Conan smiled.
   "It's miserable." Hattori Heiji smiled.
   "Yes." Conan nodded and smiled.
   "I mean you." Hattori Heiji motioned Conan to look behind him.
   "Huh?" Conan raised his head and found Maori's fist magnified on his head. Before he could escape, Maori had planted a large mushroom, so he hugged his head and squatted down in pain.
   Mori shook his hand and told Yamazaki about the commission of Nagato Dozo's missing person.
   "President Nagato, have you been following Ms. Kotomi Akagi?" Yamazaki asked.
   "No way?" Lan asked in surprise.
   Yamazaki asked: "Uncle Maori, do you still remember a few elementary school classmates, know what their married counterparts are?"
   Maori thought for a while and said, "I really don't remember much."
   "Yes, I was paying attention to Kotomi, but their family suddenly disappeared." Nagato sighed three times, "I thought they went on a trip, but they never came back."
   Yamazaki said, "Then, President Nagato, you have to be mentally prepared, they may be killed."
   Nagato Dozo was silent for a while, and said sadly: "No need to check, I don't want to know anymore."
   "That's good," Yamazaki said to Maori, "Uncle, it's getting late, I'll go back first."
   Nagato Dozo said, "Mr. Yamazaki, you can also stay for my birthday party."
   "No, thank you, I still have work tonight." Yamazaki smiled. ...
In the evening, there were not many people attending the third birthday party of Nagato Road, only his eldest daughter Nobuko Nagato, second daughter Yasue Nagato, and her husband Mitsubishi Nagato, butler Musashi Nosuke, secretary Hyuga Aoi, Mori Kazuran, Conan Kimono Heiji.
   At the end of the party, Michizo Nagato announced the marriage of the eldest son Naga Hidetoshi and Miss Aoi Hyuga.
Nobuko Nagato stretched her face when she heard this. Hikari Nagato stopped Musashinosuke who wanted to call her, "Don't worry about her, she's still single now, she's the only one left." Then she smiled. , "How can Xiuchen, the protagonist, not be here, I will call him." Then he left.
   Soon after, while Ran was talking to Aoi Hyuga, Conan pulled Hattori Heiji out of the room, "By the way, Hattori, you brought us here, right? Ask your father to recommend uncle."
   "Actually, I miss you." Hattori Heiji smiled.
   "Come on." Conan showed the anesthesia needle, "Just tell the truth."
  At this time, the cordless phone in the bedroom rang, and Musashinosuke answered the call. It was Nagato Kyouko who called, "Please let Dad listen to the call."
  Musashinosuke looked at Nagato Yasue on the third bedside of Nagato Road and shook his hand to himself, and then told Nagato Kyouko, "Master is asleep."
   "Xiuchen is gone, I can't find it anywhere." Nagato Guangming said, and then screamed in horror.
   Mori grabbed the cordless phone, "Mr. Guangming, what's the matter, where are you now?" Conan and Hattori Heiji also gathered next to Mori.
   Nagato Guangming said scaredly: "I'm in the room directly below you. Someone turned off the light and took a knife from behind... Ah!" There was no sound on the phone.
   Maori and the others rushed to the balcony and shouted down, only to find a man with a bandage on his face, with a knife in his mouth, walked out of the room, looked at them, and returned to the room.
   Mori, Ran, Conan, Hattori Heiji, Nagato Yasue, and Musashinosuke ran outside the door of the room together.
   "Xiuchen!" Hyuga Aoi sat weakly on the ground. ...
When Mori and others came to the downstairs room of the third bedroom on Nagato Road, they found that the door was locked. Nagato’s bright cry for help came from inside. Musashinosuke immediately went to get the backup key, but the key came before it came. With a scream of light from Nagato, Hattori Heiji ran away immediately, "I'm going to find a security guard to block it from outside."
Immediately afterwards, Musashinosuke brought the spare key. Mori and others entered the door and found that there was no one inside. The balcony door was wide open. So he ran to the balcony and found a rope that was still shaking, and Nagato was in the light. On the spikes on the fence outside the house, he was obviously dead.
   "Bright, my bright!" Nagato Yasukawa burst into tears.
   "Hey, I didn't find a murderer here," Hattori Heiji appeared downstairs, "What about you?"
   "I didn't find it either." Mouri said, "He won't go up." Then he said, "No good, chairman." Then he turned and ran, Ran, Conan, and Musashinosuke also followed.
After a while, Maori and others came to the door of Nagato Dosan’s bedroom. When they called the door, they found that the door was also locked, but then the door opened and Nagato Nobuko came out and said,
What are you doing, keep quiet, dad is still sleeping ."
   "Why are you here?" Hattori asked, who came over.
   "I heard the screams, so I was worried about my father and came over to take a look." Nobuko Nagato said, and then slapped Musashinosuke. "Where have you been?"
   "Yes, I'm sorry." Musashinosuke lowered his head and said.
   "Hey, what happened to my house by this detective?" Nobuko Nagato asked Musashinosuke.
   Musashinosuke said, "Miss, Mr. Guangming was killed by Master Hidetoshi."
   "Really?" Nagato Nobuko asked, "My brother did that?"
   "Yes," said Musashinosuke.
   "What does it mean?" Maori asked.
"I thought he would do this one day. Those two people would have a big fight every time they met." Nobuko Nagato said, "They were friends from childhood. They seemed to have a good relationship before, but since that incident Fire and water are incompatible."
   Hattori Heiji asked, "What does that matter mean?"
"Twenty years ago, there was a big fire in a hotel nearby. Xiuchen and Guangming, who were both high school students, passed by there. The nosy Xiuchen broke Guangming’s block and rushed into the sea of ​​fire to rescue one who couldn’t escape. She is the Aoi Hinata today." Nobuko Nagato said, "Xiu Chen suffered severe burns on his face. From that day on, the school didn’t go to school anymore. She stayed in the house all day as a novelist. Of course she was beside her. Without a girl, this woman approached Xiuchen, and became his father's secretary under his recommendation, and even wanted to marry Xiuchen."
   Hattori Heiji asked, "So, where were you before you came here?"
"With the alibi, I feel bored in my room while drinking and calling friends to complain, but because of drinking, I don't remember who to call." Nobuko Nagato said, "Just check the phone number. I can see." After speaking, he returned to Nagato Dosan's bedroom.
   Mori asked Lan to go to the bedroom of Nagato Dosan, and then called the police, but learned that the security had already called the police, so he called Yamazaki. Then Mouri, Conan and Hattori Heiji asked Musashinosuke to take them to the security room to investigate the surveillance video, but there was too much monitoring, so Mouri had to stay and watch it slowly. Let Musashinosuke lead the security to search for the murderer, and Conan and Hattori Heiji also went Up. ...
  Night, around ten thirty, Miyamoto's.
   Yamazaki, who just came in from the Meidai restaurant, received a call from Maori.
   "Is there another incident?" Miko Miyamoto asked.
   "Yes, the murder." Yamazaki said, shaking his head, and then said, "I'm past. By the way, I don't expect to be back tonight, so don't wait for me."...
   On the other side, Nagato Mansion.
   Conan searched with a flashlight, and asked Hattori Heiji: "Did you not find any suspicious people just now?"
Hattori Heiji said, "No, I also asked the two security guards guarding the entrance of the main house. Before and after the incident, only Mr. Guangming had gone out. He was looking for Mr. Xiuchen, shouted a few times around the bushes and the pool, and returned ."
   Conan asked: "By the way, why are you calling me here?"
Hattori Heiji said: "Actually, President Nagato heard strange noises last night. It seemed that someone was running in the corridor, and there were several strange noises of collisions. So he notified my dad, I I just didn’t want to watch the boring cultural festival. Originally, my dad and I thought it was just a thief stepping on it. We planned to get the stolen goods by one person after the thief succeeded. However, this is not Dad’s jurisdiction, so the police can’t be left. Dad didn’t worry about me alone, so I mentioned a Maori detective. Just as President Nagato wanted to find someone, my dad recommended a Maori detective. In the end, I didn’t expect..."
   Conan said: "I didn't expect that it was a life that was stolen."
   "But don't you think it's weird, here is the sleeping Kogoro, a famous detective who has given you a reputation," Hattori said, "It seems that the murderer is quite confident in his murder plan."
   Conan said, "Or this plan can no longer be changed."
"Also, have you noticed the leftovers left by the murderer near Mr. Guangming's body?" Heiji Hattori asked, "the murder weapon is nothing, but since you want to escape quickly, you don't have to take off your hat and bandage, and you don't even need to take off your gloves If you take it off, isn't the murderer afraid of leaving fingerprints?"
"In other words, the murderer is a person inside the mansion, as long as you remove the makeup, you can mix in the crowd." Conan said, "and the murderer deliberately showed us his bandaged face, obviously to blame Mr. Xiuchen. "
"At that time, we were the only people in the main house. It was possible to do this. Only Miss Nobiko who left the dormitory halfway." Hattori Heiji said, "But if it's like she said, she's calling someone. If that happens, she will have an alibi."
   "Then let's go take a look," Conan smiled, "It just so happens that she is in the president's room now."
   "No, it's not so good." Even though Hattori Heiji said so in his mouth, he followed.
   Soon after, Conan and Hattori Heiji got into Nagato Nobuko's room. The bed was a little wrinkled, the cordless phone was thrown on one side of the bed, there was a bottle of wine on the bedside table, the wine in the bottle was half gone, and there was lipstick on the mouth of the bottle. It seems that someone once leaned on the bedside while talking on the phone while drinking directly holding the bottle.
   "It seems that Nobuko-san was very angry at that time." Hattori Heiji said, and then found Conan was turning over things, so she whispered, "Hey, hello, Kudo, this would be mistaken for a thief."
   "Don't worry, don't worry," Conan smiled, "I'm just a kid."
   "That's why I don't worry." Hattori Heiji murmured, "I'm not a kid."
At this time, the phone rang, and Hattori Heiji was taken aback. Then he found that Conan answered the phone in Miss Shinko's voice, and said in surprise: "You can find the frequency without trying it? What kind of ear is that? !"
   Conan glared at Hattori Heiji, motioned for him to be quiet, then pressed the speakerphone, and a man's voice came through the phone, "Nobuko, is it true what you just said?"
   Conan asked in the voice of Miss Nobiko: "What?"
   "Have you forgotten? You just said," the man said embarrassedly, "Well, you want to marry me."
   Hattori Heiji immediately covered his mouth for fear of laughter.
   "When did it happen?" Conan said in Miss Shinko's voice, "I don't remember."
   "Not long ago, you called and talked a lot, and I couldn't intervene," the man said.
   Conan asked in the voice of Miss Nobiko: "Be specific, when?"
   "Huh? Let me see," the man said. "The display time is from 10:04:31 at night to 10:16:57 at night. Isn't it specific?"
   Conan said in Miss Nobuko's voice: "Enough, but something happened to my family, I'm not in the mood to talk about this now." Then he said, "You will call again later." After speaking, he hung up the phone.
   "The last sentence, good job." Hattori Heiji smiled.
   "Ten ten in the evening is almost the time for the crime." Conan put away the voice changer bow tie, "Now it is certain that the person who bit the knife and pretends to be a Xiuchen on the balcony is definitely not Miss Nobuko."
   "In that case, only Mr. Hidetori himself can do this," Hattori Heiji said, "but where can he hide after removing the bandage?"
   "Could he have had plastic surgery long ago?" Conan asked.
   "Then let's go to Mr. Hideo's room and take a look." Hattori Heiji smiled, "Of course, it's up to you."
   "You fellow." Conan rolled his eyes.
   Soon after, Conan and Hattori Heiji got into the room of Hidetoshi Nagato. Apart from books, the room is full of books.
   Conan flipped through it and found that the phone was recording, so he pressed it out to listen.
   "Mr. Hidetoshi, I’m Yamada from "Age of Literature and Art". The next submission time is set at one o’clock noon tomorrow. We’ll still meet in the same place. October 31st at 1:28 pm."
   "This is Yamada, and I have already arrived at the coffee shop. November 1st at 1:04 pm."
   "I am Yamada. I have been waiting for six hours. I don't think you will come, so I will go back today. November 1st at 6:55 pm."
   Conan said: "November 1st is yesterday. Mr. Xiuchen didn't go to the appointment, did you mean..."
"Killed," Hattori Heiji said, "If the murderer robbed and killed Mr. Hidetomi yesterday when Mr. Hidetoshi was out, and then mixed into the mansion like him, then made this murder plan at night, and then killed him tonight. Mr. Guangming..."
   "It's very likely that at this afternoon, Mr. Xiu Chen came over and said nothing." Conan said, "What I said to Miss Nobuko, when I meet with Mr. Guangming, I will fight at all."
   "Go, let's go to the kitchen to check." Hattori Heiji said, "Even if you are a murderer, you have to eat."
   Soon after, Conan and Hattori Heiji came to the kitchen to find out what was strange about Hidetomi Nagato in the past two days, and then learned that there was indeed something different. Hidetoshi Nagato usually doesn't eat breakfast, and he doesn't usually eat much. However, he even ate desserts that he rarely eats last night, and also had breakfast this morning.
   Hattori Heiji asked, "By the way, the bandages on Mr. Hideo's face have not been changed?"
   "How is it possible," the maid said, "Ms. Kang Jiang will help Master Xiuchen change a new bandage every three days. I remember that they only changed it on the afternoon of the 31st."
   Conan said: "There are other strange places, anything is fine."
   The maid asked: "Suddenly a bed sheet is missing at home. Is this a strange place?"
   "Hey, you can't count wrong, right?" The chef asked ~EbookFREE.me~ It shouldn't. Said the maid, "We counted it several times. "
   After thanking him, Hattori Heiji and Conan went out of the kitchen, and Hattori Heiji said, "Hey, Kudo, this yard is being repaired, there are pits everywhere, do you think Mr. Hidetoshi is possible..."
   "It's very possible," Conan said, "Mr. Xiu Chen is somewhere in this yard, buried there."
"It seems that what I just guessed was correct. After the killer succeeded, he removed his disguise and returned to the crowd." Hattori Heiji said, "There are two things now, one is to make sure that no one slips away, and the other is to find out Mr. Hidetoshi's body. .Let’s go, let’s go to the security room to see how the surveillance video uncle checked."
   Soon after, Conan and Hattori Heiji saw Mori in the security room and learned that no one had ever entered or exited the gate in the surveillance video, and no one had stepped over the courtyard wall. And learned from the public that no suspicious person was seen.
  Out of the security room, Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "It seems that the murderer is among these security guards."
   Conan touched his chin and said, "Anyway, we must find Mr. Xiuchen's body first."
   "Why, do you have any questions?" Hattori Heiji asked, "Is there a problem with my guess?"
   "No, it makes perfect sense." Conan said, "But I always feel that something has been overlooked by us, such as the motive for killing."
   "It's not wrong to have hatred against them anyway." Hattori Hiraji smiled, "Let's go, the police will be there in a while, and try to find out Mr. Hideo's body before they come, and solve the incident."...
