Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 496: Perfect crime

During the ceremony, Xiao Qiao Xian Jian was standing at the door with a tense expression, sweat gradually dripping from his face, silently watching Huo Ji Jiu Yao kneeling on the corpse by the wall.

The wires of the magic lamp that originally routed under the carpet were all pulled out, and the middle section was wrapped around the neck of Huo Si Jiu Yao and hung on a low hook on the wall. His eyes were turned white, his mouth was wide open, his arms hanging weak... as if What kind of ceremony is being held.

Exactly the same way as the doll's death, after President Qinglong, there is a second victim.

Gao Cheng became more calm, but Rao couldn't help frowning.

Based on the stiffness of the body, Huoji Jiuyao’s death time was roughly between 11:30 and 12:30 last night, just when the tea party was about to be held. At that time, he took the doctor and Bu Mei and his party to the living room in advance, Heigua The ghost door seemed to stay in the living room all the time, and even the people behind continued to go to the toilet one after another without leaving for half a step.

"It's a pity," Heigua Guimen heard the news and came between the ceremonies. He saw that the Huo Jiu Yao's corpse didn't make any waves. "Jiu Yao didn't go to the tea party yesterday. After all, he was cursed by the Holy Spirit..."

"Mr. Heigua," Xiaoqiaoxian looked closely at Heigua Guimen, "You said yesterday that you can't come between the ceremonies before the tea party. Did you already know something?"

"Didn't I say it a long time ago?" Heigua Guimen said coldly, "The Holy Spirit descended here yesterday. Since Mr. Jiuyao has experienced the ceremony, he should be aware of the consequences of cursing backlash..."

Xiaoqiao Xian squeezed his fists at the sight, and looked helplessly as Heigua Guimen left. He had no evidence to testify against Heigua Guimen, and this person also had sufficient alibi.

"City household..."

"Let's talk about it when the police arrive."

Gao Cheng shook his head without saying much.

Before finding more clues, he couldn't make inferences, and he was also curious as to why the murderer wanted to kill people specifically in the way of cursing dolls. If it was not purely evil, there must be some reason.

What is even more strange is that he actually chose to kill someone when he was a detective visiting. It was like a provocation, or was there a reason to have to do it last night?

It didn’t take long for the Nagano prefectural police to arrive. Originally Gao Cheng thought he would meet Yamato’s last time, but the police officer who led the team was another person. Ma’s face looked very decent, and he seemed to have something to him. To understanding.

"Cityto Detective," Police Officer Ma Lian brought Gao Cheng and Xiaoqiao to the monitoring room of the Grape House. "After our investigation, it happened that a surveillance camera shot from a distance to the ceremony, which is the case. Although the window of the room at the scene is not very clear, if you look closely, you can still see the magic light from the lace curtain..."

The police officer called up the monitoring screen, and then the horse face police officer said: "At 12 o'clock exactly, the light went out, and it turned on again at 12:11 about 10 minutes later, until the dead body light was found. It's all on."

Police Officer Ma Lian said cautiously: "If you say that the magic light wires are routed through the gaps in the carpet, you must unplug the plug once if you want to set them up on site. That is to say... the murderer is doing magic. The time the lights go out."

Kenken Kobashi looked at the surveillance screen and nodded: "No one is doing anything in the surveillance, at least it is certain that the prisoner will be in between the ceremonies during the 11 minutes of turning off the lights..."

"That's the problem," Police Officer Ma Lian said in a deep voice, "I heard that at that time you all gathered in the living room for a tea party. Has anyone left halfway?"

"This……"

Seeing a headache, Ken Kobashi said: "After 12 o'clock, everyone is in the living room. Although someone has left, the time is within 5 minutes, and the magic light goes out at 12 o'clock. The latest Kentaro and Hoshiko who arrive in the living room are 12 o'clock. Just after the order, it takes two or three minutes to reach the living room from between ceremonies at the fastest, too late..."

Officer Ma Lian frowned: "Do you have a more accurate time for entering and leaving the living room?"

"How can this be remembered clearly..."

"That's right," Kentaro Izawa, who had not spoken, said in surprise, "I remember, when I debugged the anti-theft surveillance system here before, it seemed that there was a camera that could take pictures of the entrance from the outside, and I could see what happened. People go in and out of the living room... I'll help you find them."

Jing Ze sat in front of the surveillance computer and found the camera at the entrance from the surveillance file.

"That's it, I just saw the entrance of the living room from the window of the hallway..."

"Great."

Police Officer Ma Lian saw the surveillance video, and his mood relaxed a lot, and he took a high look at Kentaro Inazawa.

"This little brother commissioned the city detective to investigate the case, right?"

"Well," Kentaro Izawa said embarrassedly, "I originally asked Kobashi to ask, but I heard him say that Senior Jōdo was also in Karuizawa, so he came to visit. I personally believe in senior's abilities very much..."

Gao Cheng heard Jing Zeyan's face calm and focused on watching the surveillance screen.

After 12 o'clock in the living room are Jing Ze and Huoji Xingzi, the monitoring screen display time is 12: 1.

"Iizawa, have you always been with Miss Xingzi?"

"How is it possible?" Jing Ze blushed, "We met in the corridor when Miss Xingzi just came out of the kitchen... Senior, are you doubting Xingzi? The magic light goes out at 12 o'clock, Xingzi absolutely No time to pull the plug..."

"That's what I said," Gao Cheng said, staring at the surveillance screen, "but everyone else arrived in the living room before 12 o'clock..."

The surveillance video continued to play. At 12:3, Mrs. Xiao went out, and at 12:4, President Xiao also left the living room. Then at 12:6, the two of them returned to the living room together, and then went out to get some snacks for Mrs. Yuan. The maid and secretary Kaizaki...

"Miss Xingzi came out at 12:7, and came back with the brewed vanilla tea at 12:12...just went out for 5 minutes."

Seeing that Xiaoqiao Xian squeezed his brows deeper.

"In this way, everyone has an alibi. Could it be someone outside who committed the crime?"

"It seems that there is only this possibility," Police Officer Ma Lian said in a deep voice, "I will let someone investigate the surroundings of the villa again, and if you have any clues, you will notify me immediately."

"it is good."

Seeing that Xian Xiaoqiao had no choice but to follow the people out of the monitoring room, he scratched his hair, and asked Gao Cheng, who was meditating next to him, "Kito, have you found anything?"

Gao Cheng regained his senses and looked at the distressed Xiaoqiao and shook his head: "No, the murderer really can't rush to the living room of the main house from between the ceremonies within one minute. Let's wait for the police officers and them to investigate. Dianyuantai and the others... Where's Miss Quan?"

"It seems to be in the restaurant. Those little ghosts were there just now."

"I haven't eaten breakfast yet. Let's have some together. Investigation also requires energy."

Gao Cheng went to the restaurant first.

He didn't talk to Ken Kobashi about some of the things. The clues in front of him seemed to be someone who wanted him to see, so he always felt something was wrong, and felt that a huge black shadow was enveloped around him.

This incident ~www.NovelMTL.com~ needs to be investigated more carefully.

If the other party is really against him, fight a fight, underestimate him, he will definitely pay the price...

In the villa room, Kentaro Izawa walked alone into a room with the curtains closed, and looked at the black melon ghost door standing by the window with his back turned away.

"Mr. Gao Yuan, why do we have to find Kosei Joto? He seems to be not as powerful as you said, and he is not at all like a famous detective..."

"Really?" Heigua Guimen turned his head and jokingly said, "How can I be like a famous detective?"

"At least I can't feel the slightest pressure from him, but Xiaoqiao makes me a little worried..."

Kentaro Izawa frowned when he thought of Gao Cheng who was like a babysitter, and when it came to Kobashi's face, there was a complex look on his face.

"Whether you are under pressure has nothing to do with me," Heigua Guimen smiled calmly, "Your friend and Kosei Kioto are just the audience I invited. I said, I will not interfere with the others, only Teach you how to commit crimes."
