Chapter 1523 Simple Answer
Author: sleep at night
Why do I feel so weird...
Hattori Heiji cursed, noticed that Ryuubi Kei was pulling out the arrow that had been shot into the tree trunk, and asked casually:
"By the way, do you know those three people just now?"
"Something looks familiar, he should be someone from the neighboring village..."
Ryuubi Jing sighed: "The purpose may be to make me lose confidence before the selection of Yabusima. In order to disrupt my riding and shooting rhythm, they deliberately moved the target in the middle. If the cause of the mistake cannot be found, next time
When you draw the bow and string the string, your mind will wander."
No wonder you had that kind of attitude when you saw us at the shooting range for the first time... Hattori Heiji suddenly realized it before he could ask more questions.
At this time, only a penetrating roar was heard exploding in the air.
A moment later, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
The number on the caller ID was Toyama Kazuye.
Hattori Heiji hurriedly picked up and asked urgently: "Did something happen?"
"Yes, yes..."
Toyama Kazuha's voice came from the loudspeaker: "Mr. Shigeji said we must go to the hut outside to get the treasure hunting information first, so we had to follow him. On the way back, we heard a huge noise and turned around.
I found that Mr. Shigeji was missing... I turned back to look for him, and saw a man lying in a sea of fire next to the tram on the level crossing..."
"What?! Someone's on fire!"
Hattori Heiji looked horrified: "Are you sure that person is Shigeji Torada?"
"I, we don't know very well..." Yuan Shan and Ye said.
"Wait a minute...we'll be there right away!" Hattori Heiji didn't bother to hang up the phone and hurriedly informed Ye Gengyi and others of what was happening there.
…
Next to the tram on the level crossing.
A burned-to-black body lay on the roadside.
The fire has been extinguished, but the facial features of the corpse have long lost their original shape and are difficult to identify. Before DNA verification, the only way to determine the person might be Shigeji Torada based on his body shape.
Another death...
This time it turned out to be a member of the Torada family...
A vein popped out on Yamato Gansuke's forehead, and he began to search for traces from the scene to determine whether the incident was an accident or homicide.
Although the sky was gloomy, there was no thunder before. Hmm... It must have been caused by touching the cable...
Ye Gengyi looked around and came to a certain tool man who was relatively the most reliable among the many people: "Mr. Maoli, was the deceased holding anything before?"
There are no hanging cables nearby. If you want to get an electric shock at human height, there must be some kind of conductive medium between the two.
"Speaking of it, there seems to be a box..."
Mouri Kogoro said softly, "It's strange, why is it missing... When we left the hut, he still carried it on his back."
"Does any of you know what's in it?" Yamato dared to ask.
"...maybe it's a fishing rod?"
Longwei Shi said: "I have seen him carrying that on his back several times to come to my son for fishing."
After hearing this, Conan and Hattori Heiji hurriedly ran to the woods near the level crossing to search for a while, and it didn't take long before they found a carbon fiber fishing rod that was also burned to a crisp.
Carbon fiber itself is conductive. Even if it is sprayed with oil-based paint, once it comes into contact with a voltage of about 1500 volts, the person holding the other end will be instantly roasted into char.
Later, several people found the box containing the fishing rod, a dead centipede, and a dirty notepad near the scene.
In addition to recording the process of searching for treasures.
He also wrote about how Yoshiro Torada, Shigeji Torada, Koji Tatsuo and Ayaka Tatsuo accidentally killed Gento Kai 6 years ago.
The motive was actually to try to make Ryuuki Kage, who was obviously at a disadvantage in the duel with Kai Gento, win. The four of them intentionally used fireworks to scare the horse when Kai Gento was practicing horseback shooting, causing him to fall off the horse and get injured.
However, the horse was frightened far beyond their imagination. While Kaigento was trying to comfort his mount, he was carried away by the frightened horse and ran away...
When they finally caught up, they saw Kai Gento falling off the cliff together with his horse and man.
He actually wrote down the crime in his diary?
This was the first thought that came to Ye Gengyi's mind after listening to the content.
But...there's still something not quite right.
If all this is the work of those four people, what does it have to do with Torada Tatsuei?
He walked over and looked at the contents of the notepad.
Seeing this, Yamato Gansuke calmly turned the open notepad sideways, revealing the traces of paper being torn off at the bottom of the inner pages.
I see……
Ye Geng thought for a while and said: "It seems that the one who killed the three people in front was Torada Shigeji."
"That's right."
Yamato Gansuke closed the notepad, put it into the evidence bag, and continued to add: "Presumably he wanted to finish off the companions who participated in the incident 6 years ago, and then kill himself. It's a pity that this notepad was not used.
Destroyed, but let us know the truth!"
"No wonder..."
Mouri Kogoro held his chin with one hand and muttered: "I heard that he was the one who found Yoshiro Torada's body, right? In fact, he deliberately ignored Mr. Yoshiro who was hit by a tornado. After all, if he had to report everything to the police
If he confesses, there will definitely be no way to hide the news, and the remaining two people will be wary of him."
"Well..." Mao Lilan was slightly sad: "I remember Mr. Fanci once said that Mr. Jing is the hero in the hearts of his classmates..."
"well!"
Long Wei sighed for Shi Chang: "...even if it was for A Jing, I shouldn't have made such a big mistake."
"In short, the real murderer committed suicide, and the case ends here! Although I really want to tell you that you can go back in peace, but just in case... I will still go to your homes to investigate. Please stay here for now.
Come here!”
After Yamato Kansuke finished speaking, he ignored everyone and took out his cell phone to call the police station and ask them to send someone over.
Hey hey...are you ready to close the case now?
Although the contents of that notepad can explain many things, there is no conclusive evidence that Shigeji Torada is the murderer...
Hattori Heiji always felt that something was not right with the pace of the investigation.
Thinking of this, he immediately came to Ye Gengyi and asked what he had just seen on the notepad, which led him to the conclusion that "it was Shigeji Torada who killed the three people in front of him."
Of course, the police want to draw out the forces behind Eita Torada... and keep everyone here before dark, so as to shorten the time for the other party to do anything as much as possible.
This is why mistakes are made while busy...
Ye Gengyi quickly sorted out Yamato Ganshu's plan, but what he said was very simple:
Chapter completed!
