Vol 20 Chapter 186: Little by little

The man volleyed over, rushed back, and disappeared into the woods in a blink of an eye. Because there were no street lights, the woods were dark.

When Kogoro Moori and the TV station staff ran to the edge of the woods, they were no longer visible.

"Damn it, he ran away."

Xie Chen said suddenly, "Mr. Nanjo."

"Oh no!"

After reacting, they immediately turned around and ran towards the office building. When they reached the bottom of the building, they ran into Yoshino Rimi who hurried over.

"Miss Satomi, what's the matter?" Mouri Kogoro stopped.

Yoshino Rimi panted and said, "When I was in the coffee shop over there, I saw the Grim Reaper running into the building."

"what did you say?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a bang, and gunfire came from upstairs in vain.

They quickly ran into the building. Just before they ran into the building, Xie Chen saw a figure in the lighted room on the seventh floor slowly disappearing by the window.

"The murderer is still on the seventh floor. I saw the shadow just now." Xie Chen said while waiting for the elevator.

"it is good."

Arriving on the seventh floor, just stepping out of the elevator, Mouri Kogoro tripped over the tape under his feet.

Nanjo Mizuki rushed into the room first, and when she saw the scene in front of her, her face suddenly turned pale, she let out a scream, and threw herself into the arms of Yoshino Rimi who was also stunned.

Nanjo Hayato fell in front of the cabinet, his eyes widened, his forehead and clothes were stained with blood, and he shot him to death. The blood on the wall had not yet dried up.

After the rush of footsteps, the room brushed quietly, and Nanjo Mizuki's cry echoed in the room.

Ten minutes later, Officer Mumu led people to the scene and quickly sealed off the office building.

After the police officers put Nanjo Hayato's body in a body bag and took it away, Officer Meguro began to understand the situation. Nanjo Mizuki sat on the sofa, unable to speak at all, while Yoshino Rimi quietly comforted her from the side.

So, Kogoro Mouri described the situation to Officer Megure.

"The murderer suddenly disappeared from the murder scene, didn't he, brother Maori."

"That is to say," said Kogoro Mouri: "The windows here are all locked from inside and cannot be opened. If you escape from the seventh floor, you can only use the elevator or escape stairs."

Officer Mumu glanced at the window, confirmed that the window was locked, and then nodded.

Kogoro Mouri continued, "But when our group arrived there, the murderer was gone."

Officer Megome said, "Are you sure no one has left this building before the police arrive?"

"Yes." Mao Lilan said, "because we and the radio reporter were always in front of this building."

Officer Megome said, "But the escape stairs are over there."

"Mr. Officer." Yoshino Rimi looked up and said, "As long as the escape stairs of this building lead to the first floor, they will lead in the same direction as the elevator, so if you want to go out, you still have to go through the same exit."

Mao Lilan said: "At that time, I also noticed the escape stairs, but I didn't see anyone coming down."

Officer Mumu sighed and said, "According to you, the murderer disappeared like a cloud of smoke."

"Don't you think it is weird?" Xie Chen groaned for a while, and suddenly said, "Because when the lights in this room were on, the murderer was standing by the window and looking out."

He pointed to the light switch on the wall at the door, "But the fluorescent light switch is on the wall next to the door. How did the murderer turn on the fluorescent light in this room?"

Mao Lilan said: "It's really weird to say that."

Xie Chen nodded and began to lower his head to ponder again. After the murderer killed the Nanjo Hayato, what did the murderer do? Turn on the fluorescent lights in the room, and...

Thinking of this, he looked at the roll of insulating tape at the door.

Officer Mumu also noticed the roll of insulating tape at the door, so he asked: "But why did this murderer deliberately leave this roll of insulating tape at the scene of the murder.

Kogoro Mouri said: "He may want us people to trip over this roll of tape when we got here, so that we can create a space for the murderer to escape."

The photographer suddenly smiled: "But you were the only one who tripped up, Mr. Maori."

Maori Kogoro curled his lips, and when he turned his head he saw Xie Chen looking at the letter paper in front of the fax machine.

That was the fax requesting Nanjo Hayato to confirm the manuscript. The time was 10:03, which was shortly before Nanjo Hayato was killed, and it happened to be when the Shinigami formation appeared in the park.

"Smelly boy!" Kogoro Mouri snatched it over by fax, "Don't touch things on the spot."

Yoshino Rimi said: "That is an interview manuscript for a special interview to be published in the magazine next week. Mr. Nanjo will stay at the company just to wait for this fax."

During this period of time, Nanjo Mizuki had been sitting on the sofa, bending slightly, although she stopped crying, she still covered her face with her hands and said nothing.

"Let go of me!" At this time, a man's voice came out in vain.

Two police officers walked in with Ono Tadao, "Group leader, this person was sneaking outside just now."

"Don't talk nonsense." Tadao Ohno said, "I'm Ohno not a suspicious person."

Kogoro Mouri asked, "Where did you go, Mr. Ohno?"

Tadao Ohno said, "I couldn't see everyone after I got out of the bathroom, so I kept looking for everyone in the park."

"It's you!" Nanjo Mizuki suddenly got up and said loudly, "You must have killed my husband!"

Tadao Ohno stunned for a moment, and then said, "Wait, what are you talking about."

"That's right." Kogoro Mouri also said, "Among all the people who were not at the scene of the murder, you seemed to be the only one who didn't have an alibi."

Nanjo Mizuki glared at Tadao Ono, gritted his teeth and said, "You must have killed my husband because of the accident three years ago."

"You... don't talk nonsense."

Officer Mumu asked, "What's going on? What happened three years ago."

Tadao Ohno sighed, and then said: "Although I am shooting some news TV shows now, I was originally a director who specializes in making movies."
