Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 712: Death message

"The estimated time of death is around 5 o'clock this evening. I was stabbed in the abdomen and another stabbed in the chest. It was fatal..."

In the red leaf forest shrouded in night, when Gao Cheng arrived, the police had already taken control of the scene. There were not many people watching the excitement, only a few tourists who happened to be nearby.

"The identity of the deceased is still unclear. Everything that can be identified seems to have been taken away by the prisoner..."

A murderer fell under a tree with a knife in it, and the beak police officer Shancun stood beside the corpse in a serious manner, waiting for the forensics staff to work.

"Anything to find nearby?"

"The district police found some tourist camping tents, and the other is this blood-stained notebook."

The detective at the investigation site handed a notepad with blood on the cover to the mountain village: "It seems to be this man's notebook with the name HOTUMI written in Roman script. The notebook fell about 100 meters away from here..."

"HOTUMI?"

Shancun Cao raised his eyebrows and looked at the man's body.

"Are you a fool who can't even write his own name in Chinese characters? That face always looks a little silly..."

Yuanzi followed Gao Cheng, looked inside after hearing the words, and when he saw the blood-stained corpse, he immediately exclaimed with Xiaolan: "It's Mr. HOTUMI!"

Gao Cheng also saw the corpse under the lights of the police car, the square-faced man wearing a woolen hat, and a lot of red leaves and blood mixed on the sleeveless down jacket, which looked strange and miserable. The dizzy guy is still in the mood to joke.

But this rookie policeman is already stupid.

"Huh?" Yamamura Cao noticed Gao Cheng and said in surprise, "Isn't this a city detective? Wait a minute... Why are you at the murder scene again?"

"We just happened to be at the bottom of the mountain and we came over when we heard that someone had an accident." Gao Cheng looked at the suspicious mountain village speechlessly, "What's your expression?"

Yamamura lifted his chin thoughtfully, looked at the garden and said, "But you obviously knew this Mr. HOTUMI just now, didn't you?"

"It should be a little bit related."

Gao Cheng crossed the exploring mountain village and walked directly to the corpse.

The corpse is just like that, it's not good-looking. Normal people don't feel too good to see the corpse, especially in the gloomy woods with only a light on the corpse.

But it is precisely this kind of corpse that can reveal a lot of information.

Around 5 o'clock when he was killed, it happened to be when he and Yuanzi had a meal, which means it was probably not an accidental killing.

After someone found the message, he immediately rushed to the mountain to meet this Mr. HOTUMI.

"Is it him who entrusted you?" Gao Cheng asked Yuanzi back.

"Yes……"

Yuanzi and Xiaolan were still a little frightened, they didn't dare to approach the corpse, they just stayed beside the mountain village exercise.

The victim was indeed a strange man who had met once during the day...

"Wait," Yamamura Cao said in confusion, "What commission? Really know this man?"

"I don't know, we met him here for the first time today," Xiaolan explained, "He asked us to help him spread the message, so we went to the Chishu Hotel in front of the station, and then met the senior citizen of the city to help finish the message. I'll go to eat afterwards..."

"Passing a message?"

"Just write a message in the guestbook of the hotel. Mr. HOTUMI said that he is an advertiser for the series "Red Leaves in Winter". A fan wanted to know where the tree that was originally a red handkerchief was on the TV set..."

"Red leaves in winter?" Yamamura Fu was immediately attracted by the attention, and interrupted excitedly, "I know this series is still being broadcast on the cable TV of Gunma Prefecture. The grandmother in the country recommended me to watch it and watched the rerun. After that, I was fascinated! Every Saturday night from 9 to 10 pm I will be in front of the TV on time..."

Speaking of the mountain village excitedly took out a small TV: "Today is Saturday, so I brought a portable TV, hehe, although there is a timed video at home, but I can't wait!"

Gao Cheng and Conan ignored this unreliable policeman, and carefully checked the condition of the body after the police officers collected evidence.

The fatal injury and the time of the death were just like the coroner said. Except for the two wounds, the victim's hands were also stained with blood and rubbing marks. It seems that it should be related to the notebook found 100 meters away.

In addition, there was fresh dirt between the victim's nails and dirt on his trouser legs. It seemed that he had dug the dirt with his hands somewhere, which made people want to know what happened.

And who is the fan who promised to meet...

The mountain village nearby returned to the main topic after hard work, and asked Yuanzi two about the victim. As they were about to investigate further, Gao Cheng's voice rang in his ear: "Shancun Police Officer, can I have a look at that notebook? "

"Oh, of course..."

Yamamura gave out the notebook subconsciously. When he recovered, Gao Cheng had already held the notebook with his handkerchief and checked it with Conan.

"Detective Joto, do you and Detective Maori share this habit? Take Conan with you every time..."

"This kid likes to learn from adults to solve crimes, but will not run around and disrupt the scene." Gao Cheng smiled and rubbed Conan's hair, ignoring Conan's protesting gaze.

"Really?" Shancun Cao bent down and looked at Blinky Conan carefully, and curiously said, "This kid is indeed very unusual... Is it always this expression?"

"Occasionally..."

"That's true."

Yamamura Fu didn't put too much thought on Conan, and soon talked about the notebook in Gao Cheng's hand, shook his head and said, "I have seen the notebook just now, there is nothing special..."

"Stained with blood," Gao Cheng looked at the itinerary on the previous page of his notes, "it seems to be pressing on'April 1'with a bloodied finger..."

"April 1st?" Shancun Cao said in a daze, "Isn't it April Fools' Day? April fool...Is this man really a fool?"

"Hello..."

Gao Cheng felt that the Gunma County Police Department had a brain pit that allowed this guy to lead the team, and even made this guy a police department.

"Mountain Village Police Officer," the criminal police under his command could not stand it, and reminded in a low voice, "It may be the death message left by the victim..."

The village froze for a while~www.NovelMTL.com~ and smiled embarrassedly: "If the death message...soon is to say that the prisoner is a fool? I think it's better to call the crew of "Winter Red Leaves" first. I can know the specific identity of Mr. HOTUMI, the advertiser, so maybe we can find the suspect..."

"Isn't the suspect already there?" Gao Chengjiang returned his notebook to the mountain village. "It was the fan who met at this location with HOTUMI. It is said that the other party was the Red Tree Hotel that stayed in the morning..."

Judging from the time of death of the victim, the murderer may have noticed that Yuanzi was leaving a message at the first time. After learning the content of the message, he soon left the Red Tree Hotel and went up the mountain.

It seems that this case is not without clues, as long as a senior criminal policeman should be able to solve the case, as for the mountain village exercise...definitely need to draw a question mark, this guy has professional knowledge, but other aspects are even better. Not under the upper part.

Gao Cheng reluctantly looked at the village exercises who were excitedly preparing to go down the mountain.

After contacting him several times at least, I feel that this guy is a good person, and he has the determination and interest to become a good policeman, but his ability to solve crimes is really worrying and he is always superstitious.
