Vol 20 Chapter 137: Calm down

As soon as the voice fell, a woman's scream came in vain from the apartment next to it.

So, Kogoro Mouri ran to the entrance of the apartment quickly, but because he was too anxious, he bumped his head on the glass door of the apartment.

"May I ask who you are looking for?" asked the apartment manager who was reading the newspaper when they saw them running in panic.

Kogoro Mouri said: "We just heard women screaming from this building."

"Huh?" The apartment manager was surprised: "Is it true? But I didn't hear anything."

At this time, a middle-aged man in a green suit and glasses walked in.

"You're back." The administrator greeted immediately: "I'm back so early today."

The middle-aged man asked, "Did something happen?"

"Nothing." The administrator glanced at Kogoro Mouri, "These are..."

Before the words were finished, the glass door was pushed open from the inside, and a woman with short blond hair and wearing a skirt stumbled out, and the slippers under her feet flung aside in embarrassment, she didn't seem to notice.

"Madam, are you all right." Mao Lilan stepped forward to support her.

"It's not good..." the woman said hastily: "My husband... My husband was killed on the balcony."

After a brief shock, Mouri Kogoro stepped forward and said, "I am the detective Kogoro Mouri. It's you who screamed. How many floors do you live in?"

"Seven...Room 701."

Inside the elevator, Xie Chen asked the manager: "By the way, I just looked at the name tag on the mailbox. It seems that no one lives here."

The administrator replied: "Because, it will be demolished at the end of this month, so now only Mr. Imoto opens the company here."

He looked at the middle man behind him, "The other tenant is this Mr. Terazawa."

Maori Kogoro opened the door of Room 701 with a handkerchief. After entering the door, Xie Chen noticed a pair of high heels and two pairs of men's shoes in the hallway.

Everyone walked through the living room and came to the balcony. A man in a black suit stood by the balcony railing, and on the right side of the balcony was a man in a white sportswear who appeared to be dead, and there were fragments of flower pots scattered beside it. .

"The back of the head is broken..." Mouri Kogoro squatted beside the corpse and said, "It seems that the murder weapon is these flower pots." He turned to look at the man in the black suit and asked, "Who are you?"

The man in the suit said timidly, "I am Tetsuo Dobashi."

Mouri Kogoro picked up his collar and asked loudly, "You killed him, right."

"I didn't kill people..."

Ten minutes later, Officer Mumu led people to the scene.

"The cause of death was a bruise on the back of the head."

Kogoro Mouri said: "In my judgment, the murderer waved this flowerpot from behind the victim and slammed the deceased on the back of the head."

"Mr. Police Officer." Xie Chen pointed to the balcony railing and said, "The traces on the railings from sharp beatings. Will these traces have anything to do with the incident?"

auzw.com Officer Mumu walked to the railing and said, “So, there are really traces on the railing. Compared with other traces, it feels like a trace that just appeared.”

Then he walked into the living room.

"The victim was the president of the real estate company. His name was Ryusuke Imoto. He was thirty-nine years old. The one who discovered it was his wife, Ms. Takako, is that you."

"Yes." Takako Imoto nodded in the swivel chair.

Officer Megome looked at Tetsuo Dobashi who was standing aside, "Which was the one standing in front of the body when the Maori group arrived?"

Dohashi Tetsuo said, “I’m Dohashi Tetsuo. I am currently in the business of importing groceries. I am the former boss of Imoto and his matchmaker. I came to him today for work.”

"You are a matchmaker." Officer Megome looked at Mr. Terazawa who was sitting on the sofa again, "Then what about you."

Mr. Terazawa said: "My surname is Terazawa, and I live on the fifth floor of this building. I used to run a fishing gear shop."

"Operated before?"

"Yes." Terazawa said angrily: "My shop was owed by him. He used the despicable means of legal loopholes. He is a very bad man."

He looked at Takako Imoto and Tetsuo Dobashi, "I'm afraid something similar to me has happened between these people at the scene and him."

The two lowered their heads at the same time, and Officer Mumu asked: "What do you two think, please tell me."

Tsutohashi said softly, "Yes, I am his matchmaker. Perhaps I shouldn't say that. Imoto and his wife are in the middle of a divorce lawsuit."

Tetsuo Tsuchihashi glanced at Takako Imoto who was sitting in a swivel chair, and then continued: "There is also a dispute over alimony. If he dies, even if he doesn't get the alimony, he will have a large inheritance."

"what are you saying?"

Takako Imoto stood up and walked to Tetsuo Dobashi with his arms in his arms and said, "Mr. Dobashi, you are also about to close down for the company. You have come to my husband to borrow money several times, but the results are all rejected, right? So you are very angry. I missed him and killed him."

Tetsuo Dobashi hurriedly defended: "That is impossible."

"Forget it." Officer Mumu separated the two. "Madam, calm down. By the way, Mr. Administrator, is the only entrance to this building where you can enter and exit?"

The administrator replied: "Yes, only there."

Officer Megome opened the record book and said, "Besides the victim, the only people who went in and out today were the wife, Mr. Tsuchashi, and Mr. Terazawa."

Having said that, he closed the record book, "And you all have a full motive to kill the victim, that is to say, the murderer is one of the three of you."

"No way……"

"First, please tell me your wife, the details of when the body was found."

Takako Imoto returned to the swivel chair and sat down, put her hands on her thighs, and said, "I arrived in this building a little over five o'clock."

"The correct time should be after five o'clock." The administrator suddenly said: "I have all recorded the entry and exit of the building."

Officer Megome said, "That's great, it can be of great help, please keep talking, madam."

Takako Imoto continued: "I will be here today, as Mr. Dobashi said, to talk to my husband about alimony again.."..
