Chapter 20 The suspect is Yoko Okino!?
"Haha... these were all handed over to me by my brother Xinyi. Seeing that I was very interested in various cases, he told me a lot of things..."
"Shinichi gave it to you?" Xiaolan asked, "Then do you know where he is these days? Since we separated at the amusement park last time, I have never been able to contact him..."
"..." Conan showed a complicated look, "Well... he said he was involved in a complicated case and could not contact outsiders during this period..."
"Sister Xiaolan... Don't worry, when Brother Xinyi finishes his work, he will definitely go to find you as soon as possible."
"There is no way to contact outsiders..." Xiaolan looked sad: "So... Is even an outsider?"
Conan's face suddenly changed, and he realized that he had said the wrong thing!
Although Conan is very young, Xia Ri has to admit that Conan's observations have indeed grasped the point.
Yoko Otsuno's room was messy and everything was chaotic, but only the chair next to the body was placed there.
And what do the water stains around the corpse represent?
Officer Meguru looked at his watch, turned to the investigators and asked, "How is it? Has the cause of death been found out?"
"Yes, the knife wound behind the deceased is the cause of death, and it was fatal to one knife, and it died on the spot." A senior police officer from the investigation department nodded and replied.
"Miss Yoko, is that kitchen knife yours?" Officer Meguchi asked.
"That's right, it's mine..." Yoko Tono nodded. She often cooks by herself at home, so she still has some impression of this kitchen knife.
"In other words, if you have your fingerprint on it, it's natural?"
"Wait! Officer, do you suspect Yoko?" Yamaki Eiichi asked nervously.
"Before the case is solved, anyone is doubtful!" Officer Meguru glanced at him, "Who are you?"
"I am Eiichi Yamaki and Yoko's agent."
Officer Megu nodded: "Then have you seen this deceased? Or do you know this person?"
"That...so I was so scared to see the corpse. We haven't looked at his face yet..."
"Then, you guys will recognize it."
“Okay… OK…”
Yoko Okino and Ei Yamakiki walked carefully to the corpse. When they saw the deceased's face clearly, their expressions changed at the same time.
The expressions of these two people changed very clearly. Not only Police Officer Megumi, but also Xia Ri and Conan on the side could see clearly.
"How is it? Do you know him?" Officer Megu stared at their faces, not letting go of any clues.
"Sorry, I'm a little myopic, I have to get closer to see clearly..."
While Yamaki Eiichi was talking, he squatted down next to the corpse, intending to see the man's appearance clearly from a close distance. However, his feet seemed to accidentally step on a pool of blood. When his feet slipped, they fell on the corpse!
“Wow!”
Eiichi Yamaki hurriedly got up from the body and took several steps backwards!
"Hey! Don't touch the corpse!!" Officer Memu said in shock.
"I'm sorry, my feet suddenly slipped..." Yamaki Ei's apology quickly apologized.
"Oh... forget it..." Officer Memu waved his hand helplessly, "How about it, do you know him?"
"No...we haven't seen it before..." Yamaki Eiichi shook his head, then turned to look at Yoko, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, "Yoko... right?"
Yoko Okino first looked at the body, then looked at Officer Meguro, and then nodded slowly under the urgent gaze of Eiichi Yamaki.
"Well, I've never seen him..."
While Officer Meguri was talking to Yoko Okino and Eiichi Yamaki, Suzuki stood aside and kept observing.
He found that although Yoko Okino and Eiichi Yamaki denied knowing the corpse on the ground, their expressions and tone were very problematic.
These two people seem to be hiding something...
Officer Memu is worthy of being an old policeman. He obviously doesn't believe the words of these two people and looks at them with a meaningful look.
"Since that's the case, then when we find out who the deceased is, the case will be clear..."
Yoko Okino and Eiichi Yamaki both noticed Officer Megumi's distrustful tone, but they looked at each other, but neither spoke.
The body did not carry any documents such as ID cards that could prove the identity of the deceased, nor did it have a mobile phone. Although the police immediately sent someone to investigate the identity of the body after entering the scene, it was obviously impossible to find out the identity of the person so quickly.
While waiting, Officer Megura also explained his analysis to everyone present.
"The doors and windows are locked, and they are on the 25th floor, so it is impossible to invade from outside."
"The only exit is the gate of the entrance hall, and the fingerprints on the weapon, except Miss Yoko's, do not have other people's fingerprints."
"After thinking about it, it seems that there is only the owner of the house - Miss Yoko, who is the most suspicious..."
When he heard that he was listed as a suspect, Yoko Okino suddenly became anxious: "Don't talk nonsense! How could I kill someone!?"
"That's it!" Kogoro said dissatisfied, "How could he be the murderer as cute as Miss Yoko?"
"You idiot!" Officer Meguchi glared at Kogoro, "Is it the murderer? What does it have to do with cuteness?"
"Officer Memu..." Xia Ri stopped Kogoro, knowing that she could not let things go like this anymore. "Before we came here, Miss Yoko went to Uncle Kogoro's firm to commission a case. I think no one would be stupid enough to bring the detective to the crime scene after killing people, right?"
"That's it!" Kogoro said in agreement.
Officer Meguchi curled his lips: "What's impossible? The client and the prisoner are the same person, and this kind of thing has happened."
"But... Miss Yoko is so cute...how can she..."
Seeing what Kogoro wanted to say, Xia Ri grabbed him.
"After Officer Meguro, Miss Yoko, arrived at the office, she told us that the location of her furniture often changed. The reason for this is that I think someone must have sneaked into her home."
"Since someone has entered her home, that person is likely to have the key here!"
"And this is an apartment. I think in addition to Miss Yoko who lives here, the apartment manager may have a spare key."
"Another key? It's very likely..." Officer Megu nodded slowly, then looked at Yoko Okino, "So Miss Yoko, who else has the key here besides you?"
