Chapter 656 Detective Maori’s Little Fanboy

after a while.

The open space outside the gate of the five-story pagoda.

Danhai, who was wearing a yellow cloth, stood on the dirt not far from the gate of the five-story pagoda, facing the gate.

He bowed slightly, rubbed the beads with his hands together, and chanted the sutra devoutly.

Mouri Kogoro stopped far to the right of Awami, narrowed his eyes at the meticulous Awami, and complained angrily:

"Where is the retribution coming from? Isn't it just the Buddhists doing the pilgrimage?"

"Detective Mori, you misunderstood!!"

Okabe Shigeyoshi, who stopped one meter in front of Mouri Kogoro, turned to look at Kogoro, spread his hands and placed them on both sides of his chest, palms facing up.

Chongji couldn't bear to look straight and closed his eyes, turned to the left, pointed his right hand to the upper right, covered his eyes with his left hand, and gestured in horror:

"Look there!!!"

"what?"

Mouri Kogoro subconsciously made a surprised sound.

He looked up at the pointed end of the rectangular eaves extending outward on the top right of the five-story pagoda gate not far above the front, and was suddenly shocked to see a figure hanging at the end of the pointed corner.

Dongfang Haoyue stood on the right side of Mouri Kogoro, looked up at the figure, was startled, quickly recovered, observed carefully, and asked for advice uncertainly:

"He is...Hideaki Oda...?"

At the same time, Kudo Shinichi stood on the right side of Dongfang Haoyue, looked at the figure calmly, and discovered...

One end of the extremely long rope is wrapped around the wooden fence crossbar on the left side of the top floor above the left side of the five-story pagoda gate, and the other end extends to the pointed end of the eaves extending outward.

The rope goes around the sharp corner from left to right, and falls downward in accordance with gravity. The end is wrapped around the neck of Hideaki Oda, whose clothing has not changed significantly.

"Mr. Yingming!?"

Mouri Kogoro's pupils shrank suddenly and he looked at Oda Hideaki in disbelief.

During this period, Xiaolan stood on the right side of Kudo Shinichi, looking at Hideaki with fear, unable to speak for a moment.

The next second, Danhai's chanting stopped abruptly.

He turned sharply to look at Xiaolan's family, stretched out his clenched right fist straight forward, and said proudly without anger:

"This is his retribution!!!"

after a while.

Officer Henggou, who has a long-lasting coral hairstyle, led a large number of police officers to the scene of the crime.

The police officers carried out the investigation and evidence collection skillfully.

Dongfang Haoyue, Kudo Shinichi and Mouri Kogoro temporarily left the cement ground outside the five-story pagoda gate.

"The forensic work has been completed."

A middle-aged detective wearing a white shirt, brown tie, and white gloves stood on the dirt outside the gate of the five-story pagoda, with his right hand hanging down to the right side of his body.

He held the open notebook in his left hand and placed it in front of his lower abdomen. He glanced calmly at the three police officers who were responsible for removing the body and standing on the top wooden board on the upper right side of the five-story pagoda gate.

The middle-aged detective looked at Officer Henggou on the left and reported calmly:

"Now we plan to take down the body hanging from the eaves."

"Please give me a rough description of the situation."

Officer Henggou put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked at the middle-aged detective cautiously.

"it is good."

The middle-aged detective responded, placed the notebook on his chest, looked down at the notebook, and read calmly:

“The body was hung on the topmost floor of the five-story pagoda, the fifth floor.

One end of the rope was wrapped around the rectangular parallelepiped bar in the middle of the three horizontal bars on the left fence on the fifth floor. The other end went around the top of the sharp corner of the roof and hung downward to hang the body's neck. "

The middle-aged detective paused for a second and said calmly:

"The identity of the deceased is the chairman of the group, Hideaki Oda, who was 56 years old this year."

The middle-aged detective looked at Officer Henggou and reported calmly:

"There is currently an unknown detective in the five-story tower checking the situation of the crime scene."

"detective?"

Officer Henggou's eyes narrowed, and he solemnly confirmed his identity and said:

"Who is he?"

"It's me, Officer Henggou!"

Mouri Kogoro put his hands in his trouser pockets, strode out of the five-story pagoda gate, and ran straight to Officer Henggou without haste.

"Oh!!"

When Officer Henggou heard Kogoro Mouri's extremely unique magnetic hoarse voice, he transformed into a little fanboy with a snap of his fingers, jerked out his hands, and rushed to Kogoro with great excitement.

Henggou looked at Kogoro enthusiastically and greeted him after a long absence:

"Long time no see, Detective Mori!"

"I came here at the right time, but I didn't expect to encounter another murder case."

Mouri Kogoro shook his head regretfully and looked at Officer Yokomori in a detective style.

"Yeah, murder cases always make people feel heavy."

Police officer Henggou nodded slightly and asked solemnly:

"Detective Maori, let's get down to business, what do you think of this murder case?"

Officer Henggou looked up at the top of the five-story tower and judged rationally:

"Based on the conditions at the crime scene, most of the deceased committed suicide."

"Although the conditions at the crime scene are somewhat abnormal, there is no possibility of homicide."

Mouri Kogoro lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes, and gave a deep conclusion.

Officer Henggou's pupils narrowed and he asked calmly:

"Please give Detective Maori a detailed answer."

"First of all, observe the body shape of the deceased. It is estimated that his weight is two hundred kilograms."

Mouri Kogoro opened his eyes, raised his head slightly, looked up at the blue sky, and analyzed calmly:

“Obviously, it would be difficult for ordinary prisoners to carry the deceased to the fifth floor.

Even though the prisoner was extremely powerful and could easily carry the deceased up the stairs, the distance between the floor and the ceiling of the stairs was very narrow, making it impossible to carry someone upstairs.

Even if the prisoner made the deceased lie down on the stairs with his head upward, he would then grab the deceased's armpit and drag him backwards all the way up the stairs.

Then the clothes of the deceased must be stained with dust, and the body will also have scratches. "

Mouri Kogoro looked at Officer Henggou and told him with reason:

"I just checked the body roughly and found no traces of scratches."

"I see."

Officer Henggou nodded slightly and praised with admiration:

"You actually investigated such a situation, you are worthy of being a Maori detective.

Speaking of which, why is the body hanging there? "

--------

While Kogoro Mouri and Officer Henggou were discussing the case seriously, something happened on the other side...

The balcony on the right outside the gate on the top floor of the five-story pagoda.

A taller police officer, with one end of a longer rope tied around his waist, climbed over the red-painted wooden fence and walked along the steep blue eaves of the fourth floor of the five-story tower towards the body hanging in mid-air.

The remaining two police officers stood in the fence not far behind the taller police officer, holding on to the other end of the rope with both hands, responsibly ensuring that the taller police officer would not slip and die.

Finally, the taller police officer stepped on the edge of the eaves and successfully touched the body.

at the same time.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi passed by the red-painted wooden door leading to the balcony on the top floor of the five-story pagoda, and silently crossed the threshold.

They turned to the left side by side, their eyes locked on the extremely long rope hanging the body, and they walked towards the fence with one end of the rope tied not far ahead with clear thinking.
