Chapter 87: Proof photo


   March 3, Sunday, evening.
  Six members of Mori and his party met at the venue of the World’s First Night Festival held in Saitama Prefecture and met Mr. Sei Shinichi who claimed to be co-authoring a book with Mr. Imataketomo. Then a police officer named Henggou, because Mr. Imataketomo, who lived with Mr. Sei, was killed in the hotel, he approached Mr. Sei and took him to the scene.
   found that there was an incident that Maori would not let go, so he brought a group of people to the scene. Then Maori who got into the scene was discovered by Officer Henggou, but Officer Henggou actually knew Maori, and he seemed to be a fan. Therefore, at the request of the Henggou police officer, "Then it will be yours. As a reference for our search, please, please." The Maori Detective Agency formally participated in this incident.
Entrusted by the Henggou police officer, Maori squatted on the ground and searched. First, he looked at the victim's wallet. There was nothing but the card inside. Then he saw some bubbles in the victim, so he smelled it and said :"this is……"
   also touched a little Conan who smelled it, and immediately said, "Toothpaste for brushing your teeth."
   Seeing this, Maori immediately planted a mushroom on Conan's head, then stood up and said, "Really, this guy does it every time."
   Conan was knocked to the ground. When he got up, he saw a toothbrush and thought, was the victim shot while brushing his teeth?
   Watching Maori stand up, the Henggou police officer stepped forward and asked, "Maori detective, have you found any clues?"
   Mori replied, "This looks like a robbery case." He lit a cigarette and smoked. Then he continued,
All the banknotes in the victim’s wallet were taken away, and the murderer also messed up the room. It should be for money that he committed this case. The victim fell at the door. Judging from the situation nearby, I am afraid that someone was knocking on the door and was shot when opening the door inadvertently."
   "But, Maori detective," the police officer Henggou asked, "Did you think that this would be the case, deliberately pretending to be theft, but it was in the same room..." Then he looked at Mr. Sei.
Mr. Sejing at the door immediately distinguished: "Hey, hello, don't be kidding, the case happened around 8 o'clock. So I have an alibi, because at the same time I have already visited the first night in the world. I was sacrificed, and I met Mr. Maori and the others there." Then he asked Maori: "Is that right?"
   After thinking for a while, Maori said, "But when I met you, it was already in the second half of the festival."
Mr. Sejing continued to distinguish: "Really, I went there at the beginning. If you think I'm lying, you can wash this out and you will know. I have filmed to prove it alibi." The camera was handed out.
   Police officer Henggou immediately ordered: "Okay, take it to rinse immediately."
   "Wait a minute," said Yamazaki, who was standing in the middle of the room.
   Yamazaki walked into the scene and looked around first. The scene was a hotel room, which was turned over in a mess. All the places that could be turned over were turned over, and the things that could be thrown out were thrown out, scattered everywhere. Looking at the victim's body, casual clothes, towels on his shoulders, foam in his mouth, combined with the toothbrush beside him, this guy was killed when he walked to the door while brushing his teeth with his toothbrush.
In this way, the murderer of this incident can only be an acquaintance, and if the murderer leaves soon after the gun is fired, then he has no time to look through things, because it takes a lot of time to turn the room into that way, and the victim If you turn it over, the victim will at least remove the toothpaste from his mouth. In this case, the murderer should first turn around the room, then stand at the door, lead the victim over, then kill the victim with one shot, and then leave. Oh, by the way, looking at the wallet on the ground, Yamazaki thought to himself that he should have left with cash. And the murderer should be that Seiji Sunichi. The evidence depends on whether the photos in his camera can speak.
   stopped Police Officer Henggou, Yamazaki asked, "Mr. Sei, you took a few photos."
   Mr. Sei immediately replied: "Seven."
   "I remember so clearly," Yamazaki said, "Officer Henggou, can you wash a few more sets, just ten sets, and then send them back after you arrange them. I think if you have seven, it's a good line."
   "Yes." The police officer Henggou said and ordered someone to do it.
   "By the way," Yamazaki asked again, "Mr. Sei, do you remember when and where you invited someone to shoot?"
   Mr. Sei replied: "Time is when words are burning, and the place and people are not remembered clearly."
   "That's it," Yamazaki said, "I see."
As he walked towards Yamazaki, Conan thought to himself, Officer Henggou was right. This is not a robbery case at all. The murderer is someone who is familiar with the victim. It should be Mr. Sei, but why does he seem so calm? What kind of alibi was captured on the camera.
   "Yamazaki," Conan asked in a low voice, "Do you have any clues?"
   "No." Yamazaki laughed softly, and then asked back, "What about you?"
   "You can see it too." Conan whispered, "There is no evidence."
   Yamazaki laughed softly: "Didn't he take it out by himself? Then, check the location on the photo, and there should be a result. This guy is still easy to recognize."
   Conan whispered: "Well, I hope."
   Soon after, the photo was washed out and handed over to Officer Henggou. Officer Henggou first gave Maori a set, and then asked: "This is the rest..."
"Please divide it into four sets for me." Yamazaki smiled, "Officer Henggou, the last four pictures were taken by us. Please send someone to the street and go to the places in the first three pictures to see if there are any clues. I think , Mr. Sejing is still quite conspicuous tonight." As he said, he stretched out his hand.
   "Okay." As he said, Officer Henggou handed Yamazaki four sets of photos, and then gave the rest to his subordinates and let them do this. Of course, the police officer who sent the photo just now stayed, waiting for enquiries about the photo.
   After receiving the photo, Yamazaki smiled and said, "Let’s play the game of finding the mistake." After saying that, he divided a set for Conan, and then called Ran and Yuanzi at the door to come in, and one of them gave them a set. Mei Daizi opened a room, was watching TV and drinking tea, waiting for supper.
Ok? After looking at the photos, Conan immediately realized that there is a difference between the photo taken by Mr. Sei with the mask and the photo taken with the word'天' in the background and gesture of victory. . It used to be the place where the watch was always worn. Now the watch is not on it, and a white mark appears. That is because the place is not exposed to the sun.
   raised his head and looked at Mr. Sei, Conan whispered to Yamazaki next to him: "Found it."
   "Well," Yamazaki replied in a low voice, "Seven photos are too few, and it's hard to find if he takes dozens of photos."
   Conan continued to whisper: "Then I did it?"
   "Wait a minute, wait for the police to come back. If Lan and Yuanzi have not been found by that time, you can go up." Yamazaki laughed softly, "Let Lan and Yuanzi play for a while."
   took the photo, Yuanzi smiled and said, "Give it to me."
Looking at the photos, pointing to one of the photos, Lan said, "This is a photo I took. You see, I also took Conan's balloon in here. By the way, by the way, it happened when'一' started burning. , I met Mr. Sejing."
   Police officer Henggou reminded: "However, it was after 8:40 when'One' started burning, and the crime time was 8:2. If you fly by car, you can reach the festival venue from the hotel in 40 minutes."
   "Police Officer Henggou," Maori asked when looking at the photo, "The first "天" character began to burn at eight o'clock. How long will it take to burn to the next character."
   "Probably," Police Officer Henggou replied, "It's about 8:25."
Maori said: "Then please look carefully at this picture, the word'天' behind him. Can you see it? He was already at the venue of the First Night Festival in the world before 8:25. Time of crime It's around eight o'clock. No matter how you fly to the hotel, if you start from this hotel, twenty minutes is not enough anyway." As he said, he passed the photo on his hand to Officer Henggou.
   Looking at the photo, Officer Henggou said, "But, don't you think this photo was taken on purpose? It may be multiple exposures. If you are very proficient in photography, maybe..."
   "Hey, hello," Mr. Sei immediately retorted, "I just handed the camera to you for washing, and I used the kind of disposable camera. It's impossible to do that."
   Police officer Henggou immediately asked: "What did you find when you printed the photo?"
   The police officer who came with the printed photos immediately saluted: "No matter the camera or the negative, there is no trace of processing."
   "Okay, okay, Officer Henggou." Maori persuaded, and then asked, "I want to know, Officer Henggou, why do you care about this so much?"
Officer Henggou replied: "I heard what the hotel counter staff said. Mr. Sejing went out at around 7:30 and confirmed the time with him several times. The counter staff was very impressed. However, he was in August. I met you after forty. In the middle..."
Mr. Sejing immediately replied: "That's because I have to catch up with the burning time of the word'天' anyway, but I forgot to wear a watch today." He said that he showed his wrist to show that he didn't wear it Watch. Then he said, "As for the middle, isn't my alibi photo in your hand?"
   Police Officer Henggou said suspiciously: "Everything you do seems to be connected, it's like you are deliberately creating an alibi."
   Mr. Sei retorted: "Don't be bullshit, OK? Please don't waste your time on this meaningless thing. It's almost time to show your energy and go after the real criminal who killed my friend."
   At this time, a man's voice came from outside the door, "Imatake-teacher, teacher." Then a man squeezed in from the crowd watching outside the door. Looking at the scene, the man asked: "Old man, where's the teacher?"
   Police officer Henggou said, "Mr. Imtake's body has been transferred to the department." Then he asked, "Who are you?"
   "I'm Yamada, the editor of the monthly magazine "Art Times". I rushed over immediately after receiving the notice from the police." Editor Yamada said, "The teacher is still..."
   Mori said: "In the words of "Art Times," then Mr. Imatake..."
   Mr. Sei said, "Yes, he used to serialize "Legend of Sword Brave" on it."
   "Ah," Editor Yamada said in surprise, "Could it be that you are Mr. Sei."
   Resting his chin, Mr. Sei said, "Speaking of which, Imatake mentioned that his serial novel is about to be finalized, but he has not yet written it."
"By the way, the teacher's deadline is tomorrow." The editor Yamada cried, and then covered his face with his hands, and said dejectedly, "Well, even if I ask other teachers now, it’s too late. I can’t find writing equivalent to the teacher now Works."
   "There is no way," said Mr. Sei, taking out a neat pile of manuscript paper from the messed up box on the side bed, and handing it to Editor Yamada, "Take it."
   Yamazaki is speechless. Doesn't this explain the problem? There is still neat manuscript paper in the messed up box.
   Conan whispered, "They found a problem."
  " I heard ~EbookFREE.me~ Yamazaki said, "It should be fine after a while. "
   "Lan," Sonoko said, "I think there is a problem with this."
   "Yes." Lan echoed, "I have this feeling too."...
   After receiving the manuscript, Editor Yamada asked: "This is..."
   "That is a work I wrote before. I originally wanted to show it to Imabake, so I brought it here today." Mr. Sei said, "I just don't know if I can compare it to Imabake's work."
   Editor Yamada said immediately: "Where, you have worked with Mr. Imtake to write, if it is your work, colleagues in the editorial department will certainly be convinced."
   Mr. Sei asked, "Is that okay, is that the beginning of a novel?"
   Yamada editor asked: "If you can, can you please write for "Art Times"?"
   Mr. Sei said, "Troublesome, I have other jobs at hand."
   Yamada editor asked: "Anyway, please do me a favor."
   Mr. Sei agreed, "Well, even if it was written for the dead Imabake."
   "Thank you very much." Editor Yamada said and said goodbye.
   Yamazaki laughed softly, "They cooperate well."
   "Proficient in business." Conan also chuckled softly.
   Yamazaki laughed softly: "Come on, let's just say a few words, just a reminder, and later let Lan and the others have the detective addiction."...
