Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 189: Challenge from the novel

The sky was bright, and on the way to the destination Sapporo, Uncle Maori gathered everyone in the Big Dipper friendship car to reason.

"The motive of what I want to say, the key to solving the mystery is that when Asama robbed Mr. Izumo's jewelry store a week ago, he said the words that slipped,'this is different at the beginning.'"

Uncle Maori stood beside the corpse of the boss of Izumo and hummed: "If the robbery was planned by Asama and Mr. Izumo together, everything will fit together."

Uncle Maori confidently reasoned under the gaze of everyone: "If I was right, Mr. Izumo specifically asked Asama to grab jewels and told him that as long as he returned the jewels, he would give him a huge insurance premium. ."

A detective questioned: "But when the case happened, Mr. Izumo rang the alarm bell and drove him away without letting him steal anything?"

"That's because Mr. Izumo didn't intend to let him take the jewels from the beginning," Uncle Maori said sharply. "Mr. Izumo wants to raise his bargaining chip for the next mayor by fighting off the robbers. Ma is just being used. Asama is a professional robber, even if he is caught, it’s okay...

"Unfortunately, Mr. Izumo did not expect that Asama was not caught, and threatened him to let him ride this train. Mr. Izumo, who was afraid of retaliation, probably planned to make another transaction with Asama, so he insisted on taking the Hokutosei 3 …"

Gao Cheng came over to the friendship car and took a look, and when he heard the uncle talking nonsense again, he walked away helplessly.

I was really blinded to report hope to the uncle...

But when it comes to motives, there are indeed big doubts.

The murderer committed a crime based on an unfinished novel that was not published ten years ago. If he was not ill, he must have some motive.

The conflict between Mayor Ishihama and Keitaro Izumo should be in the first place. This old man seems to have a big opinion on Keitaro Izumo. Not only does he think the boss of Izumo asks Asama as a show, he is also very convinced that Izumo sells drugs privately. .

Kayue is working under Izumo, and it is estimated that he has a lot of grievances, and it is not clear whether he will kill people.

Mrs. Izumo was also very strange. The shooting was so loud that the gangster shot at the door and was still asleep in her box.

Only Mr. Aoba seems to be a passer-by and has nothing to do with the incident.

Then there was that Miss Wise, also very suspicious.

While eating chocolate, Gao Cheng passed the suspect who might commit the crime in his mind, and then walked to the door of the weird room.

The broken window remained intact, and the leaking wind blew high and fluttered.

He had previously visited the tunnel where Asama Anji's body was found. No glass fragments were found, and the police at the scene said that they had not found it.

This is also the reason why he judged that the case still has inside information.

The key is what tricks the real murderer used...

Pressing his forehead, reviewing the details at a high speed in his mind, starting to reconstruct the case based on what everyone said and what he saw.

The train drove into the tunnel and was shot. The prisoner fled through the dim aisle and fired a few shots into the room to break the glass... No, the glass should have been broken long ago, otherwise there could be no glass fragments in the tunnel.

After that, the murderer fired two more shots at Uncle Maori, threw the pistol into the room and fled in the chaos.

The question is how did the door close when the uncle chased it, and what happened to the Asama Anji corpse that fell in the tunnel...

The rumbling of the surrounding trains disappeared, leaving only Gao Cheng with transparent carriages in the whole world.

Returning to the moment of the incident, the carriage passed through the tunnel. Assuming the speed remains the same, the time for Asama Anji to fall into the tunnel is about 4:10 in the morning, which roughly coincides with the time Uncle Maori said.

But why didn't the murderer get into the box and made Asama Aji just fall...

A trace of sweat dripped from Gao Cheng's forehead, and he couldn't continue pushing back against Asama Anji's corpse.

The clues are still not enough, and there are too many influencing factors. When it comes to trains in motion, the deduction is much more difficult than before, and it is no longer supported by simple general physics knowledge.

No...

Abandoning the Asama landing simulation, Gao Cheng turned to analyze the situation of several suspects.

If a certain technique is used, the tool should still be in the hands of the murderer.

Shotgun, fishing tackle, mask and bamboo sword, golf equipment...

If it is him, only by choosing fishing tackle can it be possible to arrange the technique.

You can give Asama a sleeping pill and hang it out of the car window with a fishing line. The fishing line must not be left on the scene. Tie the Asama and pull it to other rooms to tie it. When the time comes, it will be cut directly to facilitate the fishing rod reel. .

As for the door closing automatically, just wrap a piece of fishing line around the door...

Gao Cheng's eyes fell on the door. There was no place to tie a fishing line on the door, but there was a snap-shaped hook on the door frame, which was used to lock the door.

In this case…

Gao Cheng fumbled on the door for a while, and found a place that was obviously taped, just parallel to the door buckle.

Once the fishing line is pulled, the door will easily close, depending on the situation the murderer did use this technique.

Car B has two floors. There is a staircase right next to the Asakusa room, and the rooms on both sides of the staircase are the boss of Izumo and Kaetsu on the other side.

Even if the fishing line is arranged in advance, it is difficult to be spotted.

In addition, the mystery of the murderer's sudden disappearance can also be explained. At that time, the murderer must have taken advantage of the chaos to run to the stairs, cut one end of the fishing line before Uncle Maori approached, and recovered the fishing line through the reel at the other end.

The corpse fell, and the door was closed because of the pulling force.

When the uncle reopened the door, there was no one in the room, only the broken window. It was easy to think that the murderer had jumped out of the window and escaped.

The murderer is undoubtedly Kayue, who just pretended to be a weirdo who shot Izumo and staged the drama of "the murderer died unexpectedly"...

But there is no evidence, no decisive evidence, and all the reasoning only stays on the surface. It is estimated that even the West Village police officer would be difficult to persuade.

"Police Officer Nishimura!" Uncle Maori's reasoning was over in the friendship carriage. Nishimura's subordinates answered the phone and said, "Contact at the scene. I already know the time for Asama to fall into the tunnel!"

"Huh?" Conan was thinking about whether to find Gao Cheng, and stopped in doubt.

"Judging from the speed of the train and the location where the body was found, it should have fallen around 4:10 in the morning," the subordinate explained. "This roughly coincides with the time when the murderer escaped into the room..."

Conan looked startled: How could it be possible? That murderer threw out the body in such a short time before escaping the room? Impossible... It is impossible for humans to do it. We only delayed a second to hide from bullets...

"That's right," the police officer continued, "it seems that no glass shards have been found..."

Nishimura frowned in dissatisfaction: "Didn't I say to look for it?"

"But I have searched it within a kilometer of the location where the body was found..."

When the police contacted the investigators at the scene, UU read www.uukānshu.com and said to Nishimura: "In addition, when they moved the body just now, they found pieces of tape stuck in the belt hole behind the pants."

"tape?"

Conan was startled when he heard the words, and a bright light flashed in his mind.

"Could it be..."

"So that's it," Gao Cheng suddenly appeared at the door of the social car, "I roughly know what happened? The real murderer is not Asama Anji himself."

"what?"

Xicun, Uncle Maori and others looked at Gao Cheng in surprise.

"What are you talking about? Who else can the murderer be besides Asama?"

"Yes, the police at the scene just confirmed that the time when Asama fell into the tunnel coincided with the time when the murderer escaped into the box..."

"Did the murderer really escape into the box?" Gao Cheng asked rhetorically.

"This…"

"If I didn't escape into the car, what happened to Asama?" Uncle Maori snorted, "And I saw the door closed from inside..."

"It should be just a blindfold," Gao Cheng interrupted. "What you saw at that time was actually someone disguised as Asama."

Uncle Maori slumped his face and stared at Gao Cheng more seriously: "Then you are telling who the real murderer is, and how did you deceive us with the blinding methods."

Gao Cheng glanced across the crowd, did not pause on Jiayue, but affirmed: "I don't know who it is, but I know that the murderer is among us. This incident is not over yet."

Conan stared at Gao Cheng in a daze, and a series of words suddenly appeared in his mind.

"The young man showed a bragging smile... he didn't know that he would fall into the fate of being murdered because of his reasoning ability..."

"Kyoto..."
