Chapter 1238: Hanging Scroll for Girl's Day
February 15th, Saturday, afternoon, high-rise apartment building, outside Guanyejia.
The young detective team took the elevator up and found that Mie Yoshiharu was actually at the door.
Conan asked suspiciously: "Uncle, why haven't you gone back yet?"
"That," Mie Yoshiharu explained, "I forgot my mobile phone here. After I called my mobile phone, the old lady came to answer the phone. She said that I forgot my mobile phone in the living room. I wanted to call today." It would be fine to pick it up when I come in the evening, but I was afraid that someone would contact me about something important, so I came over to pick it up, but the old lady seemed to be out."
"Ah? Grandma isn't here?" Ayumi rang the doorbell, but no one answered.
Ayumi tried to open the door, but when it opened, a strange sound came out.
Conan rushed in and found that the sound came from a room. When he opened it, it was a mess inside, and the sound came from a fax machine.
Huiyuan casually pushed open the door next to him, and found that the inside was also in a mess, "It's not just that room that's in chaos."
"Ah, could it be that he was robbed?" Yuan Tai said.
Mitsuhiko said: "It must be during the time we were out that a thief happened to break into the empty door."
"Not good." Ayumi hurriedly went to the guest room, and found that the inside had not been turned over, and the Doll's Day doll was also safe and sound, she was relieved, "Great, the doll was not stolen by thieves."
However, Conan found that the position of the doll had changed, and the left and right were completely reversed.
Yuan Tai said: "The thief doesn't seem to have touched this room."
Mie Fangchun exclaimed: "Ah, look, the hanging scroll of Thor is gone."
Seeing this, Conan said: "Call the police." At the same time, he thought to himself, he would point it out, is the thief him?
"I'll call." Mitsuhiko said.
At this time, Grandma Guan Ye came back with a bag of things, "What's going on?"
Yuan Tai shouted: "It's not good, mother-in-law, your house has been burglarized."
"Thief?" Grandma Guanye was taken aback.
"Grandma, what are you doing?" Conan asked.
"Ah, I just found out that the sugar at home was also used up, so I went downstairs to buy it, but we missed it." Grandma Guan Ye said, and then asked, "The thief you are talking about..."
At this time, Kanye Setsuko came back, saw the situation at home, and cried out aloud.
Before the cry came to an end, Mr. Jin Qu ran over, "What happened to the cry just now, what happened?"
Mie Fangchun said: "There was a thief here..."
"Thief? No, it can't be the scroll, right?" Mr. Qu Jin called out.
"What?" Katsuko Kanno called again.
Neighbors all around appeared one after another, watching.
Conan said to Granny Guanye and the others: "Anyway, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it when the police arrive."...
While waiting for the police, Haibara found out that Ayumi ran out and stood at the safety stairs, looking out the window in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking. ...
In less than ten minutes, Officer Baise from the Mihua Town Police Station brought people there.
After learning about the situation, Police Officer Baise said: "First, this kid Ayumi and her four companions came here to challenge the display of Hinamatsuri dolls, and then there is Mr. Jinqu who has always wanted to buy the stolen hanging scroll at a high price. I brought Mr. Mie, the appraiser, over here."
Mr. Jin Qu quickly said: "Ah, Mr. Police, please don't say that, it will mislead everyone."
"Sorry." Police Officer Baise said, "After Mr. Tsuqu and Mr. Mie left, the five children went out to buy Shanchuan wine for the Doll's Day.
"
Guanye Jiezi said: "Yes, I originally wanted to ask my mother-in-law to make some mountain wine for them to drink, but found that there was no material, but I happened to have something to do, so I asked them to buy it themselves."
Officer Baise said: "Then, after that, only Mrs. Guan Ye will stay at home alone."
Grandma Guan Ye said, "You are right."
Officer Baise asked: "So, did you notice anything wrong at that time? Like some strange sound?"
"No, the house is very quiet." Grandma Guanye said, "However, Mr. Mie's left cell phone rang."
Mie Yoshiharu said: "I held it in my hand when I was putting on my shoes, and then put them on the cabinet in the entrance, and forgot to take them away."
Officer Baise said: "After that phone call, Mrs. Guanye, you went out to buy sugar."
Grandma Guan Ye said, "Yes, I found that the sugar at home had just run out, so I hurried out to buy it."
Officer Baise asked: "So, what time did you go out?"
"Well," Grandma Guan Ye thought for a while and said, "I went out after hanging up the phone."
Conan reminded: "Mr. Police, when you use your mobile phone to make a call, will it display the time?"
Officer Baise said: "Then, Mr. Mie, please show me your mobile phone."
"Mr. Police, I know the time." Mie Yoshiharu said.
Officer Baise said: "This is not something you can just talk about casually."
"No, no," Mie Yoshiharu said, "Before I hung up the phone, I heard the sound of the fax machine starting up from the other end of the phone, so I should know the exact time just by looking at the delivery time of that fax."
Katsuko Kanno said quickly, "The fax is here in the living room."
Officer Baise asked: "Oh, Mr. Mie, the phone at the entrance, so you can hear it too?"
Grandma Guanye said, "I brought in the phone while making a call."
"That's it." Officer Baise said, and then went to the living room to read the fax, which showed that it was 3:28 in the afternoon.
"Okay, time is up." Officer Baise said, and then asked, "So, in this house, is there anything else stolen besides the hanging scroll?"
Setsuko Kanno said: "It seems that there is none. The wallet I put in the cabinet on the TV in the bedroom has not been stolen."
"The bedroom," Officer Momose asked, "is that one of the turned over rooms?"
"Yes," Kanye Setsuko said, "except for the living room and the bedroom, the other places are very tidy."
"That's interesting," Officer Baise said, "The thief ransacked the house and took nothing but the scroll hanging on the wall."
"Then, we can assume that the thief knew that there was a high-value hanging scroll in this family, and he didn't know where to put it, so he rummaged around, and finally found it on the wall, and took it away."
"Yes, it must be so," Mr. Jin Qu said, "That is a hanging scroll with an insurance premium of 20 million yen and a value of 40 million yen."
"Then, here comes the problem." Officer Bai Set said.
"What's the problem?" Kanye Setsuko asked.
"The behavior of this thief is obviously that he doesn't know where the hanging scroll is." Officer Baise said, "That is to say, he doesn't know you, he hasn't been to your house, and he just learned from somewhere that there is such a hanging scroll in your home." axis."
"That's right." Kanye Setsuko said.
Officer Baise said: "You don't even know the value of the hanging scroll, and of course you won't advertise it everywhere..."
Mr. Jin Qu shouted: "Hey, Mr. Police, you won't say it's me, will you?"
Officer Baise said: "If it was you, I'm afraid your home was stolen."
"Mr. Police, do you doubt me?" Mie Yoshiharu asked.
Katsuko Kanno said: "Ah, speaking of which, you happened to know that my mother was alone at home. You must have colluded with the thief. When my mother went out, you would inform the thief to enter the balcony of my house from the roof of the building. You Let him deliberately turn our house upside down to confuse others, and then he left through the gate with a hanging scroll, so the door was open at that time, and you were wandering around our door."
Mie Fangchun said: "I..."
Guanye Jiezi interrupted: "By the way, besides you, the appraiser, no one is sure that the humble hanging scroll is a genuine one, and it happened that something happened when you came here, so it must be your mastermind." of."
"Please listen to me," Mie Yoshiharu said, "I don't know the situation of your family, let alone know when your family is empty, so it is impossible to make an appointment with someone in advance to steal your hanging scroll."
"This..." Guanye Jiezi was speechless, and then asked Mr. Jinqu, "By the way, is that you? When no one is at home, use something like a master key to open the door of our house... ..."
"How is it possible!" Mr. Jin Qu exclaimed, "If you want me to tell you, it's possible for you yourself. It's not surprising that you stole yourself for the sake of 20 million insurance money."
Katsuko Kanye shouted: "Nonsense, I wouldn't do that kind of thing."
Mr. Jin Qu asked, "Then do you have an alibi?"
"Here," Kanye Setsuko was stunned, and then called out, "Then do you have it?"
"Uh..." Mr. Jin Qu was speechless.
Officer Baise asked, "Mr. Mie, what about you?"
Mie Yoshiharu said: "I was right outside the door, and when I came in, the fax machine was still running, that is to say, although I didn't have an alibi, I didn't have time to commit the crime, unless you can find the hanging scroll from me. "
Officer Baise searched, but found nothing.
Mr. Jin Qu cried: "Ah, officer, in order to prove my innocence, I can take you to my house."
"Okay then." Officer Bai Set agreed, and then asked some appraisers to go back with Mr. Jin Qu.
Ayumi looked at the time, and then asked Conan, "Do you know who the criminal is?"
"I don't know yet." Conan said, thinking at the same time, Mr. Mie is the most suspected, but the evidence is not enough, there are other possibilities.
Seeing Ayumi's eager expression, Haibara asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with you?"
"It's nothing." Ayumi shook her head quickly and said, then ran out. ...
