Chapter 362 A murder really happened!
"Really? Why are you asking for an autograph for that missing guy?!"
"Humph!"
Xiaolan didn't really care about what Maori Kogoro said.
"It's not your turn to interfere with what I do, right?"
As she spoke, Xiaolan suddenly thought that Conan seemed to be a fan of Ray Curtis as well.
So, he took out a ticket and handed it to Conan.
"By the way, Conan."
"This is Mr. Lei's ticket for tomorrow's game at the Changju Stadium. He gave it to me secretly. You should like it."
"Mmmmmmm!"
Conan nodded happily.
"Oh, Mr. Lei is quite generous."
Hattori Heiji laughed.
"Yes, Mr. Lei is really a good man,"
Xiaolan agreed with a smile.
"But he also asked me to do them a favor."
.......................
"Yeah, no problem, I can hear you, Mr. Ray."
Xiaolan was holding a walkie-talkie and talking to the other end.
At this time, the evening cocktail party had ended.
The guests left one after another, but Lei Katis and the other two said they wanted to give everyone a surprise.
"Mr. Ricardo, it's not over there, it's another room to the left."
Xiaolan is now downstairs in the hotel, looking at the lights of the hotel rooms above and talking into the intercom.
"That's it,"
At this time, Kogoro Maori also understood what the surprise that Lei Katis and the other two were talking about was.
"Well, it seems that Mr. Lei and his two companions want to use lights to form the letter 'K' on the window of this hotel room."
Hattori Heiji also said so.
Conan's eyes were sparkling with stars at this moment.
This surprise from his idol made him, as a true fan, feel proud.
Bai Masong understood another thing in his mind, which was why some rooms in this hotel were not open to the public tonight.
It turns out that the hotel rooms facing this side are all used to place lights, so they are not open to the public.
but......
Bai Masong still hasn't forgotten that foul-mouthed reporter.
It looks like something is going to happen.
"Xiao Lan, is the light I installed on?"
Ray Curtis's voice came over the intercom.
Xiaolan immediately followed his gaze and began to check.
"No, the first room of the 'k' word is not lit yet."
Xiaolan said to that side.
"Well, OK, I'll go open it right away."
Ray Katis said.
Seeing this, Xiaolan looked towards the other rooms.
"Mr. Mac, could you please open the curtains?"
"Ok."
Mike Nord immediately drew aside the curtains.
Xiaolan looked at the top two floors again.
"Well, Mr. Ricardo's side is also healed."
At this time, Lei Katis once again confirmed with Xiaolan,
"Xiao Lan, is the light on here?"
"Yeah, it's lit up."
As Xiaolan finished her words, the lights in the entire hotel room suddenly formed the letter "K".
Seeing this scene, the audience applauded and cheered.
"Nice! It's finally done!"
"It really is a 'k'!"
At this time, Xiaolan also showed a smile of accomplishment.
Just when everyone was happy about the scene before them, an accident happened.
"boom!"
"Snapped!"
The window of a room suddenly shattered, accompanied by a gunshot.
"How could glass?!"
"And there seemed to be gunshots?!"
The faces of Kogoro Mori and others were full of surprise and doubt.
Bai Masong frowned, but he was not surprised by this accident.
"what happened?!"
"What happened?!"
"Was that a gunshot?!"
Not only the people in the audience, but also Rica Barre, Mike Nord and Ray Katis who were in the hotel at the time, all opened the windows at the same time and shouted loudly in surprise and doubt to the outside.
Bai Ma Song sighed softly and said to Meihezi beside him,
"Let's go. It looks like we have to work now that we are in Osaka."
Having said that, he pulled her into the hotel.
.......................
Not long after, Hakubamatsu brought Sato Miwako to the upstairs of the hotel, and Conan, Hattori Heiji and Mori Kogoro naturally followed.
The remaining girls were left downstairs in the hotel, ready to call the police at any time and contact the three people of Lekatis upstairs in the hotel through the intercom.
At this time, Bai Masong and others had also arrived at the room with broken windows.
As Bai Masong expected, the reporter who had spoken so wildly at the cocktail party was now lying in a pool of blood and looked lifeless.
Therefore, Hakubamatsu immediately asked Hattori Heiji to call the police.
Soon, the Osaka Prefectural Police arrived at the scene.
The team was led by an old acquaintance of Hattori Heiji - Inspector Otaki Goro.
"The deceased tonight is Mr. Ed Michael, a journalist currently stationed in Chicago, USA. He is 48 years old."
Otaki Goro said in a deep voice,
"The deceased was fatally shot in the chest and was almost killed on the spot."
As he said this, he looked at a pistol on the ground.
"The murder weapon used by the murderer was this Smith & Wesson revolver."
After saying this, Otaki Goro looked at the white horse pine beside him.
"Inspector Hakuba, since you are here, I believe you have secured the scene, right?"
"Um,"
Bai Masong nodded and said lightly,
"After we arrived here and found the body, Officer Sato and I took Mr. Mori and Mr. Hattori to secure the scene."
"All clues at the scene have been maintained as they were."
"Very good, thank you, Chief White Horse."
Otaki Goro breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Hakuba Matsu.
Then he asked,
"By the way, Chief White Horse, may I ask what time was it when you heard the gunshots?"
"I know this!"
Hattori Heiji also came up and took the initiative to say,
"When the gunshots started, that's when we saw the lights flash the 'k'."
"It should have been around 8:05."
"Um,"
Bai Masong nodded, indicating his approval of Hattori Heiji's statement, and said in a calm tone,
"We heard gunshots and saw glass breaking."
"Then, Officer Sato, Mr. Maori, and Mr. Hattori, I went up together to check the situation, and then we found the deceased."
"I see,"
Otaki Goro nodded in understanding, and then he suddenly remembered,
"By the way, so you were outside the hotel at the time?"
"So, did you plan to go back then?"
