Chapter 755

"I..." a middle-aged woman said tremblingly, "When I was backing up, this person suddenly fell from above."

"Th-this person isn't that Kamizumi?" another plump middle-aged woman said in surprise after seeing the man's face clearly.

"Hey, it really is Kamizumi!"

Conan immediately squatted down by the corpse to check the situation.

A very strong smell of alcohol; he seemed to have drunk quite a bit.

The cause of death was a fall from a height, dying on the spot. The impact on the scene was quite significant; to make such a loud noise, he must have fallen from a great height.

"Eh? Who is that?" the middle-aged woman suddenly pointed to the roof. "There was a strange figure on the roof just now!"

"Someone on the roof?" Conan looked up. "Did you see the person's appearance clearly?"

"This, I only saw the clothes..."

"In that case, take us to the roof to have a look."

Akaso Kaze glanced at the annex roof and said to the security guard who had rushed over, "This might be a murder case. Before the police arrive, keep the scene undisturbed."

"O-okay." The guard nodded subconsciously. By the time he came to his senses, Conan and Akaso Kaze had already followed the middle-aged men and women to the annex, while Lan and Sonoko stayed behind to call the police.

Only one elevator in the annex was working properly. Conan and the others went up, but Akaso Kaze stayed below.

"Is it really okay for Conan-kun to go up alone? If the killer is really up there..."

Sera Masumi suddenly walked over, looked at Akaso Kaze's calm demeanor, and asked curiously.

Akaso Kaze smiled. "It's fine. The killer's goal has already been achieved, and her heart isn't evil; she won't lay a hand on a child."

"You, you know who the killer is?"

Sera Masumi looked at Akaso Kaze in surprise.

"What's there to be surprised about? I'm an Onmyoji; I can divine."

"Is that so? So that's how it is."

Sera Masumi's face was full of disbelief.

An Onmyoji—isn't that just a synonym for a charlatan?

Akaso Kaze didn't mind; she had just returned from abroad, so naturally, she didn't know his reputation yet.

He looked at the elevator and said quietly:

"This elevator will go to the top floor. Conan will see a pair of shoes pressing down on a coat; that's the illusion of suicide created by the killer."

"Then the elevator will come down, pause on the sixth and second floors, and finally open in front of us again."

Sera Masumi looked at Akaso Kaze, then stared wide-eyed at the elevator. ===== CHAPTER 757 =====
