2243【Best partner】

Jiang Xia pointed to the lights in the living room: "All the lights in this house use the same pull-string switch, including the bedroom where the deceased died. As long as the cord is pulled, the lights will turn off or on.

"Judging from the height at which the deceased was hoisted, the murderer could have restricted his movements as long as he tied his hands behind his back with a light rope.

"When the deceased's strength was exhausted and he could no longer bite the rope, and his body fell, his fall would pull the rope. When the murderer tied him, he tied a special knot. When the rope was tightened, he was tied to the rope.

The knot on the wrist will naturally pull apart. Then the rope will be restored to its original shape, and the deceased's hands will hang down by his side, eventually forming the appearance that Miss Judy saw."

The pen in Judy's hand made a clicking sound: "..." Everyone present has seen that scene, why did you single her out? Targeting, this is naked targeting! Has this guy already discovered her true identity?

?

"No, to be precise, since I appeared in the game hall and established diplomatic relations with Jiang Xia and the others for the first time, this guy started targeting me." Judy muttered in her heart, "Could it be that I was exposed much earlier than I thought?

He just thought that I, a foreign teacher, was more interesting, so he tried it casually?"

Judy's heart was in turmoil for a moment, but no one seemed to understand her mood. Except for the "new doctor" who glanced in her direction and then showed an unknown smile, everyone else was watching "Uzo" solving the case.

...I don’t know what this guy’s real name is, so I’ll try to make up some words later. Even if I can’t tell you his real name, I should at least have a pseudonym for him to use in society.



Judy was anxiously waiting for Akai Shuichi's reply.

Others are concentrating on their cases.

The Shancun Police Department banged his fist on the palm of his hand and suddenly realized: "No wonder we found some very thin marks on the wrist of the deceased. That's where those marks came from!"

Jiang Xia nodded, and then pushed his sunglasses back up a little because he nodded: "One end of the light rope is connected to the electric lamp. If it is used as a binding rope, the deceased may break the electric lamp during his struggle.

.

"The light cords in this house are quite special. In order to take care of the deceased's short height, the light cords in all rooms were specially lengthened.

"So the murderer actually cut off half of the light cord, used it to tie up the deceased, and then reconnected one end of the light cord to the upper half of the light cord. If you look closely, you can find that the wiring of other lights is

There were beautiful fishing line knots, but only the light cord in the deceased's bedroom was a casual knot, and its length was slightly shorter than elsewhere."

The Shancun Police Department wiped his sweat as he listened: "..." Can you find it if you look closely? He just stayed in that room for several hours and didn't find it!

He could only comfort himself in his mind: he came late, and he was only busy at the crime scene and almost never went to other rooms. It was normal not to know this.

Yamamura Cao: "..." But thinking about it carefully, it seems that this wild detective arrived later than him.

He fell into deep thought for a moment, and then quickly lay down: Forget it, how can an ordinary person compare with a detective? He just needs to have ears and can listen.

As expected, the kind-hearted wild detective was as unscrupulous as Jiang Xia. He consciously began to reconstruct the incident of the case without waiting for others to ask:

"During dinner time, Mr. Akashi came to the second floor alone to deliver food to the deceased. While the deceased was concentrating on eating curry, he attacked from behind and stuffed a handkerchief into the deceased's mouth.

"The murderer then took out the cut electric light cord, tied the person behind his back, put a noose around the deceased's neck, let the deceased bite the upper part of the rope, and hung the person to the beam.

"Finally, connect the section of light rope that tied the wrists back to the electric lamp, and the preparations are over. But unfortunately, there was a flaw here - the murderer didn't know how to tie the 'fishing line knot', so he had to

Cut off the original knot and hide it, then tie it with a deadlock and try to get away with it."

Speaking of this, "Uzuo" sighed and pointed to the bookshelf: "As for fishing line knots, there must be relevant knowledge in the "Introduction to Fishing", but it is a pity that you did not notice this detail, or maybe

I notice it but don't care. This kind of thinking can obviously be fatal. In a murder case, sometimes a little detail is enough to determine the whole situation."

Akashi Hiroto listened and lowered his head in shame.

Then suddenly I felt something was wrong: "..." A detective who ruthlessly exposed him was actually sighing for him?... Is this man in sunglasses trying to persuade him to surrender because he can't find evidence, and now he is laying the groundwork for it?

Prelude?

Just as he was wondering, suddenly, the man said: "In addition, asking someone to go upstairs to help you put away the dishes is really too deliberate, especially the 'if the light in the bedroom is on, come down quietly'"

"If the lights have been turned off, go in and put away the dishes." Rules that are too rigid will only make people feel abnormal."

Conan nodded repeatedly after hearing this: Although this guy who suddenly appeared on a rainy day is a bit weird, his reasoning ability is really good - the hero sees the same thing, and he thinks so too!

If I hadn't lost my voice today, I would have gone up and tried a few words - if it wasn't a suspicious person, it would actually be good to make a friend.

Thinking this, Conan quietly tried to speak.

Then he cried into his still hoarse throat without tears.

But when the same words fall into another person's ears, the reaction is completely different.

Judy: "..." This guy actually taught others how to kill people in person? That idiot policeman, did you doubt my strength just now? Arrest him!

However, when she turned around, she saw that Yamamura Cao was also nodding her head, looking very teachable, and no one paid any attention to the cry in her heart.

——It seems that in the eyes of uninformed people, this is not "irrefutable evidence of abetting murder" at all, but an excellent reasoning based on trying to figure out the criminal psychology.

Looking around the whole place, Judy found in despair: apart from Jiang Xia who was sleeping, the only other person who felt the same as her... turned out to be Belmod.

Others, such as the trustee Suzuki Sonoko, were already very actively involved in the process of solving the case. She raised her little hand and asked: "Then our 'accidental encounter' with Mr. Akashi at the rainy tennis court was also deliberately arranged by him?
