Chapter 84: The Unwritten Name

February 24, Saturday, afternoon, Mihua Art Museum.

Mr. Zhenzhong, the future owner of Mihua Art Museum, fell in the hell exhibition room and fell into a pool of his own blood. In order to know the truth of the matter, the Mumu Police Department took everyone to watch the surveillance video in the monitoring room.

The video started playing at 4:25, and as the time went by, a few seconds later, a figure appeared on the screen that originally only consisted of armor and a low table. Boss Zhenzhong walked to the front of the armor. He looked around first, then turned around to face the camera, and then looked at his watch again, as if he was waiting for someone.

At this time, when the time on the screen was displayed as 4:26, the armor that had been standing still suddenly raised the sword in his hand to Boss Zhenzhong, who was looking at his watch with his back turned to it, and pointed at the back of Boss Zhenzhong. Slash with a sword on your back. After Boss Zhenzhong was hit by the sword, he immediately touched his back and leaned against the wall next to the low table. However, the armor did not pursue, but jumped forward, and then stood still with the front facing the camera and the back facing Boss Zhenzhong.

Two minutes later, when the time on the screen was displayed as 4:28, Boss Zhenzhong, who regained his strength, first picked up the pen on the low table, then tore off the paper on the wall, and then glanced at it. Immediately afterwards, he showed a surprised expression, then wrote something, then threw the pen out, crumpled the paper into a ball, and held it in his hand.

At this time, when the time on the screen was displayed as 4:29, the armor that had not been touched, suddenly stepped back half a step with his right leg, slashed at the front of Boss Zhenzhong again with his backhand, and turned around with his right hand. The leg is the support and reference, the left leg takes a step forward, and at the same time, the left hand stretches out from the bottom to the top obliquely, grabbing the neck of Boss Manaka who is retreating by the sword, and then leaning forward, switching to the left leg for support, The left hand continued to exert force upwards, and while lifting Boss Zhenzhong up, let him lean against the wall, and then followed up with the right hand, raised the sword obliquely, and stabbed Boss Zhenzhong's throat.

At this moment, when the real boss was about to be nailed to the wall by the long sword through his neck, suddenly something flew over and hit the sword. The thing collided with the sword, and it shattered immediately, but the sword was also crooked. Because the left hand that stuck Boss Manaka's neck was still going up, the sword crossed Boss Manaka's shoulder.

Then the armor immediately let go of Boss Zhenzhong, and then turned around following the sword's castration, and rushed towards the direction of 'that thing' before standing still, and then the screen appeared. Then Yamazaki and Mei Daizi appeared on the screen, but they left after only a glance at the pool of blood, and no one appeared on the screen until the three of Maori appeared. ...

"Megure Police Department," Mao Li said loudly after watching the video, "The note should still be in the hands of the boss."

The Megure Police Department immediately ordered his subordinates to handle the matter, and then asked the forensic personnel to find the pen, and then said to Yamazaki: "Please explain."

Yamazaki explained: "That was my mobile phone. I threw it out when I saw it was urgent. Later we saw it charging towards us, so we let it go. Then we went to call the police and call an ambulance."

"Then it passed by you," Mumu Police Department asked, "What else do you remember?"

"It's very fast, and we didn't find anything." Yamazaki said, "By the way, it can be seen from its last behavior that it wants to imitate the giant painting."

"Giant painting?" Mumu Police Department asked, "What giant painting?"

Maori said: "By the way, it's the one hanging in front of the scene of the incident,

The title is the giant painting of "Heaven's Punishment". It was probably intended to imitate that painting, so it didn't directly kill Boss Zhenzhong. So that in the end, when it wanted to nail Boss Manaka to the wall, Yamazaki could save Boss Manaka. "

"It seems that the murderer is very bold," Megure Police Department said, "If this attire is seen by others, it will cause commotion."

"That's why," Lan said, "On the passage leading to the murder room, there was a 'No Entry' sign."

Mei Daizi continued: "Didn't I just say that? We broke in."

Maori said, "Lan, we should have seen the sign around four o'clock."

The Mumu Police Department analyzed: "Then, the time of the incident can be confirmed to be around 4:30, and the notice board should have been placed by the murderer.

Maori said, "After separating the people in this way, he sneaked into the room wearing armor."

The Megure Police Department continued: "Then, they attacked the boss Masaka who was invited."

Maori went on to say: "In this way, the murderer should be someone who has a good understanding of the interior of the museum.

Scanning the art gallery staff present, Mu Mu Police Department said: "In other words, the murderer is among you."

At this time, a phone call said, "Mumu Police Department, there is indeed a note, and I will send it to you immediately."

Megure Police Department asked: "How is Mr. Masaka?"

The policeman on the other side of the phone replied: "He has come out of the emergency room, but the doctor said that he lost a lot of blood, and he is not out of danger yet. We have to wait for him to wake up."

"Is that so," Mumu Police Department asked, "What is written on that note?"

The policeman on the other side of the phone replied: "There is only the word 'Kubata'."

After hanging up the phone, the Mumu Police Department shouted, "Mr. Kubota!"

Mr. Kubota immediately asked nervously, "Why, why did you call me by my name?"

Standing next to the Megure Police Department, Maoli who heard the call said, "It may be to avoid being caught by the anti-theft camera, so I deliberately wore armor, but it was still discovered by the boss, so..."

Mr. Kubota immediately denied, "No, it's not me."

Mumu Police Department asked: "So, tell me, where were you when the murder happened around 4:30?"

Mr. Kubota quickly replied: "At that time, I was alone in the office, doing what the curator asked me to do."

Director Ochiai confirmed: "That's right, I did ask him to do something."

The Mumu police department asked: "So, that is to say, no one can confirm at all, were you there at that time?"

"Please, please, wait, wait a moment." Mr. Kubota hurriedly explained, "I have no motive, and I was wronged."

"Even if it's useless to hide it, Kubota-san." Mr. Iijima testified, "You secretly sold the artwork here, and the boss is asking you for a huge amount of damages, isn't it?"

"That, that is..." Mr. Kubota hesitated to speak.

The Mumu Police Department continued to ask: "Is what he said true?"

Mr. Kubota defended loudly: "However, this matter has nothing to do with the murder case. The person who attacked him was not me."

"Okay," Megure Police Department said, "when my subordinates find out the armor used by the murderer, everything will be revealed."

It's strange, Mr. Kubota should know that there is a security camera in that room, why did he choose to commit crimes in this room, and wear armor to hide his true face, in order to learn from that painting? Conan thought, no, he doesn't seem to care about artworks, is it possible for Mr. Kubota to come up with such an elaborate design?

Thinking of this, while the police department and Mori were not paying attention, Conan stepped forward and called up the video to watch it, and re-watched the video of Boss Zhenzhong writing something. While looking at it, I wondered why Boss Zhenzhong was so surprised when he saw the note, and why he threw away the pen after finishing writing. Alas, if there is a voice, maybe we can know who the murderer is.

At this time, two police officers came in with a large bag together, and reported: "The Megure Police Department found the armor in Kubota's cabinet." Then he opened the bag, revealing a pair of clothes covered in blood. armor.

Mr. Kubota exclaimed: "How is this possible, I have no idea."

The Mumu Police Department asked, "What else do you have to say now?"

"It's really not me," Mr. Kubota yelled, "He is my boss, how could I want to kill him."

The Mumu Police Department asked suspiciously: "What does this mean?"

Mr. Kubota said helplessly: "Actually, Boss Zhenzhong asked me to steal art works, in order to prevent the art museum from receiving commissions, so that the art museum can only exhibit its own things. And the same thing takes a long time. If it is done, no one will come to see it, so..."

Director Ochiai said, "He will be able to smoothly acquire the museum at a low price."

"That's right." Mr. Kubota continued, "And he bought all the artworks, so he asked me for compensation, but we are just acting, so I have no motive at all.

The Mumu Police Department asked: "Of course no one knows about this matter, right?"

"No, not bad." Mr. Kubota replied.

At this time, Mao Li walked over to look at the armor and said, "It's a pity that a good work of art has become a waste product."

"No." Mr. Iijima went over and explained, "That's just a replica for decoration. This is indeed the armor that I saw Mr. Kubota bring in during the day."

Mao Li said: "Oh, when Boss Zhenzhong was talking to him, the armor he was holding turned out to be a replica."

By the way, Conan thought, it's just a replica, so even if Mr. Kubota acted rudely, Director Ochiai didn't say anything. And if he moves here, that is to say, he knows where it is, and he can find it out and wear it after he comes in, so that the chance of being discovered can be reduced. And because he has a relationship with Boss Zhenzhong in private, he can let Boss Zhenzhong wait for him there.

Mr. Iijima went on to say: "Yes, the armor used for the murder is a replica, so the real one should not have been spoiled." Then he looked around and said, "And the other works of art don't seem to have been damaged either."

"Oh," said Molly, "that's good luck."

No, looking at the wall near the crime scene, Conan thought to himself, there was an explanatory card but there was no painting on it, the murderer removed it in advance to protect the artwork from blood stains, the murderer was indeed in the art gallery A person, and a person who cherishes works of art. And Mr. Kubota...

Wait a minute, Director Ochiai said, "I like all the works here, just like my children." Conan thought to himself, if the murderer was him, it would be easy for Mr. Kubota to have no alibi, and he also knew where Mr. Kubota put the armor, because he ordered it. Also, he can easily let Boss Zhenzhong wait for him there. And there is also the motive of wanting to kill the boss of Zhenzhong. The boss of Zhenzhong wants to turn his beloved art gallery into a restaurant. If he really loves these works of art like his son, his motive is not small.

Also, if this is the case, the matter of the note can be explained, because the name on the note is the name of his subordinates, not the name of the murderer, so the boss of Zhenzhong will be surprised. But, why did he use the pen... By the way, Conan thought, because Boss Manaka wanted to write the name of the real murderer, but the pen couldn't write it, so he threw it away in a fit of anger.

Thinking of this, Conan scratched his head and said it made sense, but what about the evidence? It turns out that the murderer should have planned to put the blame on Mr. Kubota, and should have prepared another pen, so that the police would think that the words on the note were the death information of the real boss, but now...

Looking at Mei Daizi who was chatting with Lan, and Yamazaki who was sitting next to him and dozed off, Conan thought to himself, now he probably has no chance to change.

At this time, a police officer came to hand over the note in the hands of Boss Mazhong to the Megure Police Department.

After taking the bag containing the note, Mumu Police Department took a look and handed it to Mr. Kubota.

Mr. Kubota took the bag, and was stunned when he saw it, and then shouted: "No, it's impossible." Then he missed the bag and dropped it on the ground.

Conan immediately rushed up to pick up the bag, and handed it to the Mumu Police Department. Of course, he couldn't help but glance at it halfway. Sure enough, Mr. Kubota's name was on that note, and only his name, Conan thought while looking at it, and there were traces painted on it with a pen that couldn't be written.

After receiving the bag, Megure Police Department praised: "Good job, kid." Then he said to Mr. Kubota, "Now you have nothing to say."

"I..." Mr. Kubota said, "It's really not me."

At this time, the forensic personnel came to report that the pen was found, because Boss Zhenzhong threw it on a pair of armor, so it was only found now.

He took the pen bag and looked at it. It was a commemorative pen with the words '50th Anniversary of Mihua Art Museum' written on it. The Mumu Police Department praised: "This pen is quite exquisite."

Director Ochiai explained: "This is the 50th anniversary of the Mihua Art Museum this year. The specially-made ballpoint pen will be available to everyone as long as it is a staff member."

The forensic officer said: "By the way, Mumu Police Department, this pen can't write."

"What?" Mumu Police Department exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not me, it's not me," Mr. Kubota immediately smiled happily, "How can I write my name with a pen that can't write?"

Maori immediately asked, "What do you mean you can't write?"

"It's just that you can't write anything on the paper." The forensic officer explained, "When we found it, the tip of the pen was exposed, and it may have been broken by the real boss. We checked it, and there are still a lot of it." Pen oil."

"Uh..." Mr. Kubota immediately stopped laughing.

The Mumu Police Department said: "Then, Mr. Kubota, please come to the office with us."...
