193. Waitress

Just as Kogoro Mouri was showing off his strength, the wind chime in the coffee shop sounded crisply and someone pushed the door in.

"Dad, why are you running so fast?" Ran Maori looked around and walked over with some dissatisfaction.

Behind him, there was an innocent primary school student.

"I'm coming here in advance to order good coffee," Kogoro Mouri said seriously.

Although Ran Maori expressed doubts, he didn't say much. After saying hello to Chenxiong, he sat down aside. Conan would not be even more polite.

"The securitiesman was killed in his apartment. The weapon was a rifle used for hunting. The police are investigating the vendetta." Kogoro Mouri said casually as he looked at the news in the newspaper.

"But this is terrible, that apartment is nearby, right?" Maoriran frowned and said, "Maybe the murderer is lurking nearby."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "pop" sound coming from beside him, but the coffee cup held by the waitress broke.

"Xiao Azusa?" Kogoro Mori called out.

"I'm so sorry, I'll send another one right away." The waitress Azusa Tomoto said in a panic and apologized while cleaning up the fragments, "I'm sorry, boss."

Chen Xing didn't care and said, "It's okay."

Ran Maori squatted down and helped her clean up, "Are you okay? It looks like you are not very good."

"Yes, is there?" Azusa Komoto said with a grin.

Chen Xing flashed some doubts. She was an employee who had been in the store since she opened the store. She was diligent and cheerful, and had never had any mistakes at work, let alone the act of breaking the cup by mistake.

Although she tried to be calm at this time, both her expression and tone were obviously worried.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing couldn't help but look at the news published in the newspaper. It was when she heard Kogoro Mori talk about this that she was strange.

"I remember Sister Xiao Zi's brother Mr. Sugito. He had also played shooting before, right?" Conan said suddenly as if he remembered something.

Azusa Hiromoto, who was packing up the pieces of the cup, changed her face.

"Be careful." Amuro walked over and took the fragments from her hand, while frowned slightly and looked around.

But Kogoro Mouri often confronts elementary school students, "These two have nothing to do with each other, right? Mr. Sugito is playing flying target shooting, not hunting shooting."

"But look, I suspect he is related to this matter, and there are quite a lot of people who put on a terrible expression." Conan raised his chin at the other tables of guests.

There are indeed many customers in the store today, and there are many innocent faces. I already discovered this when I came.

But I didn't pay attention. These people may have also investigated this case, or Azusa Tomoto.

"So, there are quite a few people in this store who have terrible eyes." Kogoro Mouri crossed his legs, without hiding his voice. He glanced at his sharp little eyes, and finally stared at the curly haired guest next to him.

"Well? This guy's head is a bit familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere." He said as he was about to pull the other person's head.

Conan pointed to the man wearing a blue thread hat by the bar, "The person sitting next to the bar is very similar to a brother I know!"

Chen Xing took a sip of tea.

"Eh?" Ran Mori had already walked over and said in surprise: "Strange, can you be..."

"Cough cough!" The man wearing a blue thread hat and a windbreaker quickly turned his head and coughed to cover it up.

"Officer Takagi!" Maori Ran said in a word.

I thought I was pretending to be very good, Takagi was startled and my sunglasses slid to my mouth.

--Isn't it mean that wearing a pair of glasses or a hat is the simplest and most useful disguise? Even the person who is familiar with him should not recognize him. Why did I use it all, but I was still seen through at first sight?

"What are you doing here if you don't go to work?" asked Kogoro Mori with his eyes.

Takagi took off his sunglasses and thread cap and said as if he accepted his fate: "It's actually because of Mr. Sugito. We suspect that he is suspected."

"What?" Kogoro Mouri was very surprised. He pointed to the news in the newspaper, "Is it related to the case of this securitiesman?"

"Yes, the victim is named Takahiro Torihiro, and he is the boss of Miss Xiaozi's brother Mr. Sugito. The murder weapon found on the rifle at the scene was left with Mr. Sugito's fingerprints. When we went to his apartment, the building was empty, and he did not go to work at the company, so he was dismissed for no reason."

Takagi spread his hands and said, "We think he might contact his sister, so he came here."

When he said this, he smiled apologetically at Chen Xing. After all, he brought so many people to follow him without saying hello. Everyone was still old acquaintances, which was really impolite.

Kogoro Maori was already asking Azusa Tomoto, "So, has your brother contacted you?"

"Only once, he told me not to worry." Azusa Komoto said anxiously: "And my brother also said that he was innocent and he did nothing!"

"Yes, it's not wrong at all." At this time, a man in a suit with glasses came over, "It must have been something wrong."

Kogoro Mouri looked up, "Who are you?"

"This is my brother's colleague in the company, Mr. Toji Kawase." Azusa said.

The glasses are gentle and gentle. At this time, she looked at her with a smile, "Because of work, come here to do business nearby, so let's take a look."

Conan said, "By the way, is the fingerprints detected from that murder weapon, really Mr. Sugito's fingerprints?"

"Yes, there's nothing wrong." Takagi Suk said, and had already taken out the small notebook I used for the previous record, and it seemed that he was planning to secretly provide clues to a detective.

"It was probably because he went to Mr. Torihiro's apartment with four or five colleagues in the company to play. Mr. Torihiro showed them the rifle to them," said Torihi Kawase: "Because that guy was very interested at that time, even looked inside the gun."

When Kogoro Mouri heard this, he curled his lips and said, "You are not that interested, right? He is also playing with flying target shooting."

Besides, looking in at the gun is not afraid of getting fire?

"The flying target uses a shotgun. He said this was the first time he had touched a rifle for hunting, and he looked very excited." Toru Kawase said.

"Excited?" Kogoro Mouri raised his eyebrows.

"But since they are already having sex at home, Xiao Zi's brother shouldn't have made enemies with Mr. Torihiro, right?" Maori Ran said in confusion.

Azusa Hiromoto nodded repeatedly, "Yes, my brother said that although he is very strict, he is actually a good person."

"Very strict?" Kogoro Mouri discovered the key point again.

Tori Kawase explained: "Mr. Torihiro said that Mr. Torimoto is a very capable person, so he attaches great importance to him. He often scolds that guy for doing something in front of others, probably because he regrets that guy's failure to do."

"But, if the fingerprint was printed by chance, why run away?" Faced with his remarks to Azusa Kogoro Mori questioned.

Takagi Sugito seemed to leave the apartment in a very panic situation."

"In a panic?" Conan asked.
