Vol 20 Chapter 34: Alibi

"Actually, I used to write novels under the pseudonym Imai Total Sum." Said Seiichi.

Mao Lilan exclaimed, and then said excitedly: "If it was Imai who counted in total, I would know. I read a lot of his books when I was in middle school."

Kogoro Mouri touched his chin and said, "But, it's weird. That name should have been used by Imatake Tomomi when he debuted."

Sei Sunichi explained: "I and Ima Taketomo are old friends. We used to write together."

"Written with Mr. Imtaketomo."

"Today is also the two of us here, because he won the Naomoto Award to celebrate, we plan to drink all night."

Speaking of this, Sejing Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, adjusted his suit, and whispered, "It's so hot..."

When Xie Chen saw this, he whispered: "If it's hot, just take off the coat..."

Seiji Sunichi walked to a shop and said, "This neighborhood is also good, can I trouble you to take two or three more pictures?"

"Okay." Mao Lilan agreed with a smile.

Just when she took the camera and was about to press the shutter, a tall man with a hair like a coral walked over.

"You are Mr. Sei Sunichi."

"Yes." Sai Jing Xuanyi said.

The coral man took out his police card and said, "I am a police officer in Saitama Prefecture, my surname is Henggo. I want to ask you about the case of Mr. Imataketomo."

Sei Sunichi asked suspiciously, "Did something happen to Imtake?"

"He has been killed." Police Officer Henggou said in a deep voice, "It's in the hotel room where you stayed with him."

Shi Jingxuan opened his mouth and said nothing, Xie Chen frowned slightly, and Mao Lilan showed a surprised expression.

So, Xuanyi Sei followed Police Officer Henggou to the scene of the crime, which was located in a hotel near the festival. Kogoro Moori followed with Molilan and Xie Chen.

"The murder weapon is a pistol."

In the room where the crime occurred, police officers were taking photos to collect evidence. Officer Henggou said: "The crime was committed at 8:2 or 3 in the evening. The criminal was a young man. After the attack, he escaped from this room. There should be nothing wrong."

It was the man with glasses who was shot and killed before. The fat man outside the door said: "Yes, that's not wrong at all. At that time, TV just started broadcasting the festival."

Kogoro Mouri squatted beside the body and said, "The bullet pierced through the head beautifully."

"Hello." Police officer Henggou discovered Kogoro Mouri and said hurriedly, "Who are you?"

Kogoro Mouri stood up, adjusted his clothes, and looked at Officer Henggou from the corner of his eye, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a detective."

"Huh?" Police Officer Henggou exclaimed, and then said loudly: "If I'm not mistaken, you...you are the famous detective Mr. Kogoro Mouri!"

"Yes..." Mouri Kogoro was startled by the loud voice of the police officer Henggou, and subconsciously said: "Yes, Kogoro is me."

Sei Sunichi's pupils shrank in vain.

auzw.com Police Officer Henggou clung to Kogoro Moori and continued with admiring eyes: "You have solved many difficult cases. I often read about you in the newspapers, great man ."

"Thank you so much..."

Xie Chen smiled slightly and said nothing.

Officer Henggou seemed to have found the savior, and put his arms around Kogoro Mori and said, "Okay, then you can take your optimistic view. It will serve as a reference for our search, please."

Kogoro Mouri pretended to cough, and when he lowered his head, he happened to see the wallet on the ground. After picking it up, he found that there was no banknote inside, only two bank cards sandwiched in the wallet.

Afterwards, Kogoro Mori put down his wallet, looked at the white foam at the corner of Reaper's mouth and said, "What is this?"

Xie Chen touched a little with his finger, put it in front of his nose and smelled it and said, "Toothbrush powder."

Maori Kogoro glared at Xie Chen, "You guys do this every time. This is a corpse, not something that you kid is interested in."

Officer Henggou came over and asked, "Have you found any clues, Maori detective."

Kogoro Mouri took out a cigarette, lit it by his mouth, and said, "This looks like a robbery case."

"You said it was a robber case?"

"The only money in the victim's wallet was taken away, and the prisoner also messed up the room and committed this case only for money."

Police Officer Henggou looked at Kogoro Mouri with unblinking eyes as if listening to a teacher's lecture.

"From the situation where the victim fell near the door, I am afraid that someone was knocking on the door, and he was shot inadvertently when he opened the door."

"But Maori detective." Police officer Henggou said loudly, "Did you expect this to be the case?"

"Yep?"

"The appearance of theft deliberately appeared to be from the same room..." Officer Henggou looked at Sei Sunichi who was standing at the door.

Se Jingxuan's face changed drastically, and cold sweat ran down his cheeks.

"Hey, don't be kidding, the murder happened at around eight o'clock, but I have a complete alibi, because at the same time, I have already gone to see the celebration of the first night in the world."

Officer Henggou nodded, and Sei Sunichi continued, "I also met Mr. Mori and them there."

Mouri Kogoro dangling a cigarette and squeezed his chin and said, "Yes, but it seems to be the second half of the festival when I met you."

"Really, I went there in the beginning." Sei Sunichi took out the camera and said, "If you think I'm a lie, just take this and wash it out. There should be proof that I was not there. "

"Okay." Officer Henggou took the camera and handed it to his subordinates and said, "Take it for a rinse now."

Seeing Sejing Xuanyi's appearance, Xie Chen frowned slightly. Police Officer Henggou was right. This was indeed not a theft case. The prisoner was someone who was acquainted with the victim.

After about ten minutes, all the photos on the camera were developed.

"Are there seven?" Officer Henggou looked at the photos and said, "But, which of these photos are proof of alibi."

Mao Lilan came over, took the photo with the rabbit balloon and said, "This is the photo I took. You see, Xie Chen's balloon was also taken in here."..
