"Sister! Sister, where are you?"
A woman's cry sounded. Masayo Aoshima heard it and said, "My sister," and then ran out of the bathroom.
At this moment, the police had not arrived yet. Mouri Kogoro also walked out when he saw this, and Aizen followed him. Conan saw it and hurried into the bathroom.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Mina Aoshima looked at her crying sister and asked worriedly.
Masayo Aoshima wiped her tears and said hesitantly, "Meina, you...you have to be mentally prepared, Kenji...Kenji he..."
"Sister, what's wrong with Kenji?"
Mina Aoshima asked hurriedly when she saw this, secretly worried in her heart.Masayo Aoshima whispered, "Kenji is dead, he died in the bathroom."
"What?!"
Mina Aoshima was shocked when she heard that, she stepped back, and then immediately ran towards the bathroom.
Mouri Kogoro and Aizen followed her.
"Kenji!!"
When Mina Aoshima saw the body of her boyfriend, she cried out in grief and immediately rushed towards the body.
Masayo Aoshima saw this and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and a surge of excitement surged in her heart. You and I are competing, and you can never get what I can't get.
"These ladies!"
Mouri Kogoro grabbed Mina Aoshima's arm and said, "Please don't destroy the scene before the police arrive."
"Sister!"
With her arm held by Mouri Kogoro, Mina Aoshima turned around and threw herself into Masayo Aoshima's arms and burst into tears.
Masayo Aoshima gently patted Mina Aoshima's back, like a good sister, comforting her sad sister.
After a quick glance, Mouri Kogoro turned to Aizen, "Aizen, didn't I ask you to keep an eye on that brat, Conan?"
"Master Mouri, I'll bring Conan out right away,"
Aizen responded immediately. But before he could enter, Conan emerged on his own, walking to the side, his chin in his hand, lost in thought. He had already inspected the scene and was certain the man didn't commit suicide, so this was a homicide. The bathroom doors and windows were taped shut, so this could only be a locked-room murder, and the culprit must be one of the two sisters hugging each other.
"To find the culprit, we must first solve the locked-room method. Otherwise, even if we have evidence proving the culprit, it's useless without the method."
Conan knew very well that in a case like the locked-room murder, the most crucial thing was the method of solving the case. Otherwise, all the evidence would be useless. Because it was a locked room, there was no way to get in and out. Even if evidence was found, the suspect would not admit it, and it would be useless in court. Therefore, the method of solving the locked room was the most important.
Watching Conan ponderingly walk aside, Aizen smiled slightly. If Conan couldn't solve the case right away, he wouldn't mind giving Conan some hints. To achieve his goal, this case must be solved.
Twenty minutes later, Megure arrived with his team.
After a preliminary examination, Megure said, "The deceased is Kenji, 26 years old this year. The cause of death was excessive blood loss caused by a ruptured artery due to a knife wound on his left wrist. As for the one who discovered his body, it was Miss Masayo Aoshima, and all of you here appeared here by coincidence..."
Megure said as he looked at Mouri Kogoro on the side. He had met Mouri Kogoro at the scenes of too many cases. Recently, the Metropolitan Police Department has been saying that Mouri Kogoro is a god of death, and even he has to think so.
Mouri Kogoro was completely unaware and smiled as he replied, "Yes, it's me, Mouri Kogoro. Inspector, to be honest, we drove here to pick up Miss Masayo's sister at her request. Later, we noticed something was wrong in the bathroom, so we broke down the door and came in."
Megure replied, "The thing you're referring to is the tape on the bathroom door."
Mouri Kogoro continued, "The tape has sealed every crack in the bathroom from the inside, making it a sealed room. I think this is a suicide, no doubt."
Megure frowned slightly. "But if it's a suicide, why would the deceased have made this place a sealed room?"
Mouri Kogoro said, holding up two bottles of bathroom cleaner. "I think the deceased believed that the mixing of hydrochloric acid and acidic bathroom cleaner would form toxic hydrochloric acid gas. He made it a sealed room to prevent the gas from escaping."
"But why would he commit suicide here?"
Conan, standing at the doorway, suddenly spoke up, puzzled. "This isn't his home. If he wanted to commit suicide, he should have done it at home."
Mouri Kogoro turned and glared at Conan.
Megure nodded in agreement, walked out of the bathroom, and said to the two sisters standing by the door: "Ms. Masayo Aoshima, Ms. Mina Aoshima, I'd like to ask, when was the last time you saw Mr. Kenji?"
Masayo Aoshima replied, "Last night. I'm moving out in a few days, so I asked Kenji to come over and help pack some heavy things. It was late, so we had a few drinks, and Kenji left. I haven't seen him since."
Mina Aoshima, now much more energetic, said, "That was the last time I saw Kenji, too. But after he left, I drank too much and passed out, and didn't get up until morning."
Aizen asked, "When was the last time you used the bathroom?" "
Masayo Aoshima said: "It was around seven o'clock last night."
Mina Aoshima said: "I took a shower after my sister, and Kenji was still helping to pack things at that time."
Megure asked in confusion: "After getting up in the morning, have you never used the bathroom again? Even if you didn't use it, did you never pass by here?"
Mina Aoshima said: "After I got up in the morning, my sister was trying to contact Kenji on the phone, but because I couldn't get through, I was a little worried that he might have had an accident on the way because he drank too much last night, so I quickly packed up and left home, and didn't use the bathroom or pass by the bathroom."
"In that case, even if Mr. Kenji committed suicide in the bathroom, you wouldn't have found it."
Megure nodded when he heard this. From this point of view, the possibility of suicide is higher. The reality is that most case is suicide because the police don't have the ability to solve, so if there is no direct evidence, they are all considered suicide.
