Coroner Ke Xue

"Why did you invite two more idiots to come over? Is your Metropolitan Police Department still finished?"

"If you can't solve the case, leave quickly and don't waste everyone's time!"

As if he had developed hemorrhoids after sitting in a wheelchair for too long, Mr. Seba was very angry now.

As soon as he saw Lin Xinyi and Kudo, the two foreign aids who had just been invited, he shouted at Officer Megure impatiently:

"If you think about it, you should know that the people who came to my banquet are all famous people in Japan."

“Are people like us murderers?”

"The real murderer has probably escaped long ago!"

Seba Tundoku scolded him plausibly, and then threatened with an unhappy expression:

"Memu Police Department, our time is precious. If it continues to be delayed like this, don't blame me for calling the police director to complain afterwards."

"Uh" Officer Mu Mu looked embarrassed.

Indeed, in addition to the housekeepers and servants of this villa, those currently imprisoned here are all well-known capital elites, high-ranking plutocrats, and social celebrities.

If it really arouses their dissatisfaction, ordinary little policemen will really not be able to bear the consequences.

Even the Megure Police Department, while adhering to the principles of being a police officer, has to be careful about what they say to them.

"Mr. Seha Tatsutoku"

The Mumu Police Department was preparing to give some more persuasive words.

But Kudo Shinichi on the side raised the corner of his mouth and rushed to say with a gun and a stick:

"Don't worry, Mr. Seha Tatsutoku."

"With me here, this case will be solved in just a few minutes."

"You" Seha Tatsunoku looked at Kudo Shinichi carefully, and finally remembered that he had seen him at Suzuki's house: "Are you the kid who claimed to be a famous detective a few days ago?"

"That's right." Kudo Shinichi smiled meaningfully: "Please wait a moment, I promise to find the murderer."

"How long?" Seha Tundoku concealed his nervousness with impatience.

"Soon." Kudo Shinichi replied in a playful tone:

For him, there was no suspense in this case.

Mr. Seha Tatsunoku pretended that his leg injury had not healed. He clearly wanted to use this illusion of disability to deceive the police and eliminate his suspicion of murder.

Then all he had to do was figure out the modus operandi and expose the old man's lie about pretending to be disabled in public.

Strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as hard-core evidence. At most, it can only prove that he has the greatest suspicion of murder.

If the murderer refuses to let go and finds a good lawyer, he might be able to be acquitted.

But these are not actually problems:

Because according to the routine, as long as the murder method is exposed by a famous detective in public, even if a complete chain of evidence is not formed, the murderer will basically confess directly due to psychological breakdown.

A murderer like the one I met at the tram stop at noon, who clenched his teeth until the end and would never let go until he saw evidence, is extremely rare in this world and is unlearned.

"Then we can solve the case as long as we see through the secret room technique."

"But this method would probably be very boring."

Kudo Shinichi thought with dull interest.

Even if he hadn't gone to the scene to see it, he could foresee that the secret room technique must be very simple.

After all, Mr. Seba's main point is to pretend to be disabled. He doesn't need to spend too much time on the layout of the secret room. He just needs to come up with a simple trick that makes people believe that "this must be done by healthy people."

It's so boring

Kudo Shinichi has already figured out how to reveal the murderer's true colors.

But he did not take action directly, but turned his attention to Lin Xinyi:

"How will he solve the case?"

Kudo Shinichi did not compete with Lin Shinichi for fame.

Rather than achieving a meaningless victory through "cheating", he wanted to see what method Lin Xinyi would use to break the game.

At this time, Lin Xinyi asked methodically:

"Mr. Seha, after the incident, did the guests in the villa gather together immediately, or did some of them never show up during this period?"

Seha Tundoku frowned and replied impatiently:

"Everyone in the villa rushed over following the sound of gunfire, and no one acted alone."

"So I'm just saying, the real murderer must have run away a long time ago. How could he be among us?"

As he spoke, he also emphasized:

"I was using the bathroom in my bedroom bathroom."

"After hearing the gunshots, I quickly packed up and left the room and asked the maid to take me to the scene."

"And I was only delayed in the room for two or three minutes, as my servants and guests can attest."

Seba Tundoku pretended to be disabled so that he would not be suspected.

But the problem with this method is that once someone starts to doubt it, it is very easy to be exposed.

Therefore, in order to minimize the possibility of attracting attention for "acting alone for too long"

After killing the person, Seba Tundoku quickly changed his disguise and appeared in front of everyone as if nothing had happened.

Now he is particularly emphasizing this point to make Lin Xinyi believe:

He couldn't be the murderer, and neither could anyone else. The real murderers had run away, and investigating them was a waste of effort.

But Lin Xinyi was not so easily tricked.

He just kept the details of the question in mind, then turned directly to the Memu Police Department and said:

"Mumu Police Department, the gun smoke reaction test should have been done on the suspects present, right?"

This case was a shooting homicide.

When a firearm is fired, the air mass escaping from the muzzle and the end of the barrel will definitely contain soot composed of gunpowder particles and metal powder.

These shooting residues will stick to the murderer during the spraying process, and it can only be removed by repeated cleaning.

As long as the nitrate in the shooting residue is replaced with a metal compound that is more reactive than nitrate, an obvious color change can occur - this is the gun smoke reaction.

Through this simple smoke reaction, you can confirm who among the people present has fired a gun in the recent period.

But unfortunately, this case is not that simple.

Otherwise, there would be no need for the Mumu Police Department to call for help:

"The smoke test has been done—"

"For the sake of caution, we did not miss even Mr. Seha Tatsutoku, who was injured in his right leg."

"But unfortunately, the result of the test was that no shooting residue was found on the hands of anyone present."

Officer Megure said helplessly and with a headache.

"Huh huh" Seha Tundoku snickered in his heart:

Want to catch him using the smoke reaction? It's not that easy!

He dared to commit a crime in his own home, so he was naturally well prepared.

He wore gloves and a mask when killing people, and also wrapped himself tightly in clothes.

The residue from the shot was blocked by gloves, masks and clothing.

When he returned to the room after killing the person, he immediately threw away his gloves, threw away his mask, and changed his clothes. His body became "clean" and he was not afraid of being tested for gun smoke reactions.

"They only know how to use stupid methods to investigate, just like those useless police officers"

"It seems that the boy who was invited here is not very powerful!"

Thinking of this, Seha Tundoku felt much relieved.

And he was thinking this in his heart, and said harshly:

"Look! I've done all kinds of smoke reactions."

"Since everyone is fine, why won't your Metropolitan Police release them?"

"You?" Lin Xinyi frowned slightly: "It seems you don't want us to stay here to investigate?"

"Cough cough cough cough" Seba Tundoku coughed.

He guiltily avoided Lin Xinyi's slightly suspicious gaze and said with a stern look:

"I just think you are looking for trouble!"

"We have been investigating for so long and still haven't found out. Isn't it because the murderer is not among us at all?"

"maybe"

Lin Xinyi responded noncommittally.

But his eyes were still so firm, so firm that Seyu felt guilty:

"Let's go to the scene again."

"What the specific conclusion is, I have to wait until I see the scene before I can tell."

With that said, Lin Xinyi ignored Seba Tundoku and continued to walk towards the guest room where the murder occurred.

The Mu Police Department and other police officers immediately followed him like stars holding the moon.

And looking at the backs of them heading to the scene, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but become interested:

"The smoke reaction didn't work."

"Can he really identify Seba Tatsunoku among the suspects just by examining the corpse?"

He decided not to talk about his discovery for the time being and see how Lin Xinyi would break the situation.

Just like that, Kudo Shinichi also hurriedly followed.

Soon, the group arrived at the guest room on the third floor where the murder occurred.

Manager Yamazaki's body collapsed on the cold floor. Before he died, he was still clutching the gunshot wound in his chest, his face full of pain and fear.

"Mr. Lin, gloves!"

This time, before Lin Xinyi could speak, Inspector Xiaosong handed over two pairs of gloves with a respectful look.

He already knew that Lin Xinyi was very likely to become his boss, so he acted much more seriously than before.

"Well, come and help me check the contents of the necropsy chart."

Lin Xinyi took the gloves and put them on unhurriedly, then walked to the body and squatted down, and began to examine it seriously.

Rigor mortis, corpse spots, corpse temperature, head and face, neck, chest, abdomen

The standard procedures were followed one by one, and it didn't take long for him to check all the appearance of the deceased's body.

Inspection officer Komatsu also helped and carefully recorded everything Lin Xinyi said.

"That brother Lin?"

"Did you find anything?"

Seeing that Lin Xinyi had finished the inspection, the Mumu Police Department immediately asked impatiently.

According to his previous knowledge, after checking the corpse, Lin Xinyi should have raised his sharp eyes and told the hidden truth in front of everyone.

However, this time, Lin Xinyi simply said:

"There was a bullet wound in the left chest of the deceased 6.0cm from the front midline and 2.0cm below the left breast. There was a large amount of bleeding at the wound and obvious reaction to life. Except for this, there were no obvious wounds on the body surface."

"It can be seen that the deceased was indeed shot during his lifetime."

"Yeah, so" Mumu Police Department looked forward to it for a while, but Lin Xin didn't say anything for a long time.

"What's down there?" He finally asked uncontrollably.

"No more." Lin Xinyi replied.

"That's it?" Officer Memu's expression was subtle.

"That's it." Lin Xinyi answered very calmly.

The air suddenly fell into dead silence.

The police officers who originally wanted to see with their own eyes just how powerful this future manager Lin was, all had stunned expressions.

Kudo Shinichi was also shocked:

After looking at the body, he only said this conclusion. Did this case really stump Lin Xinyi?

"Then I win like this?"

Kudo Shinichi found that he seemed to have won his first victory.

I won, but I won.

It's like hitting a soldier of a certain country who illegally crossed the border with a stick. He didn't even use much force on the other side, but he was already defeated thousands of miles away on the other side.

"This is too easy"

Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi suddenly felt empty.
