Chapter 69 The battle of wits and courage among the Kudos
According to the unwritten rules of this world, whoever reasons will prove.
The detectives I met in the past at the Mumu Police Department were all well-behaved and obedient.
However, this time, when he adjusted the stopwatch and prepared to time Jiang Xia.
But I heard Jiang Xia decline politely: "It's not necessary."
The Mumu Police Department stopped and asked, "Huh?"
Jiang Xia glanced at the shikigami on the host's legs, then looked at the window and fast-forwarded skillfully:
"The murderer does not need to come to this room in person. He only needs to be in a room upstairs, lure the deceased to stick his head out, and then aim downward and fire a shot."
As he said that, Jiang Xia pointed to the blood-spattered window and the neatly broken blood marks on the upper window frame: "After shooting, throw the gun in through the window, so that when the body falls, the window will naturally be closed. Then.
By leaving bullet marks in the room in advance, you can create the illusion that the murderer was standing in the room and shooting."
…
The host stood aside, his expression changing unpredictably. Suddenly, his back became hairy, and he suspected that when he committed the crime, Jiang Xia was actually following him and witnessed everything.
Jiang Xia spoke a little quickly.
Some people understand those fancy processes, but some don't.
But what to do next is still very clear.
The Mumu Police Department digested the situation for a while, then called in the police officers from the forensics department and asked them to check the gun smoke reaction at the corresponding windows from this floor up.
Soon, obvious gunpowder residue was detected on the seventh floor.
——That’s where the actual shooting took place.
If you want to go from the studio on the ninth floor to the warehouse on the seventh floor, four minutes is more than enough.
The host's "alibi" was suddenly gone.
He wanted to continue to argue, but at this point...he didn't know what else to say.
Jiang Xia almost seemed to have stolen his murder script and spread it out in front of everyone... The host had never expected this situation.
…
What happens next is even simpler.
Although the seventh floor is very close to the studio, 4 minutes is still not enough time. If the host had fired without any cover at that time, he would have been able to detect the smoke reaction; but if he had disguised himself, time was so urgent,
It's hard to hide his armor. If you look for it along the road, you can get strong evidence.
…
A few minutes later.
When the host was staring at a group of police officers, squatting in the corner with his head in his hands, growing mushrooms.
Officer Takagi found the raincoat and gloves the host was wearing when he fired the gun in the fire box on the 8th floor.
As long as these physical evidences are identified, the murderer can be identified.
However, judging from the host's reaction, the outcome should not be much suspense.
The case once again jumps to the finale with one click.
The police officers looked at Jiang Xia and became very kind. Although this little brother always encountered murder cases, he solved the cases quickly. Who doesn't like to have shorter working hours.
…
The Mu Mu police department put their hands behind their hands comfortably, patted their backs, and asked their subordinates to take the suspects and physical evidence back to the police station.
As for himself, he has to continue to deal with the matter that his old friend asked him to help investigate.
——He just received a call that the wife of Kudo brother was missing.
Kudo Yukiko has just disappeared for a few hours, and the evidence of her disappearance is only "the phone cannot be reached", which is not enough to establish a case.
But Kudo Yusaku seems to take this matter very seriously.
So the Mumu Police Department planned to help him find it privately.
…
However, before leaving the building of Nippon TV Station.
The Mumu Police Department accidentally glanced into the crowd and happened to see a familiar figure.
——The woman was wearing a sunhat and sunglasses, covering her face. But upon closer inspection, the Police Department felt that the person looked very much like Kudo Yukiko.
"?!"
He immediately ran over.
However, there were many people crowded nearby to watch the fun. When the police arrived, the woman had disappeared.
Police Department Memu rubbed the back of his head in confusion.
Just then, a call came in.
He glanced at the caller ID and picked up: "Hello? Brother Kudo. Oh, I haven't had time yet. But I just saw someone who looked like your wife. Hmm? I'm at Japan TV Station now. There was a murder here just now.
…”
Jiang Xia, who was passing by, froze slightly when he heard the call.
But he soon calmed down.
...He just said hello to the neighbor's aunt when passing by, and then told him about his itinerary today. He is not a human trafficker, so there is no need to feel guilty.
Jiang Xia took a few seconds to soothe her conscience and walked backstage as if nothing had happened.
…
Yoko Kinoshita also has an evening show.
After cleaning up the mess here, she regretfully said goodbye to Jiang Xia and her idol.
Kudo Yukiko went downstairs with Jiang Xia. Halfway there, she remembered something and suddenly felt guilty.
When she arrived at the door of the TV station and saw two people, one large and one small, standing outside looking at her resentfully, Kudo Yukiko froze in her steps.
She smiled awkwardly and patted Jiang Xia: "Go back first."
Jiang Xia responded, nodded to Kudo and his son, received a polite response, and then left.
…
Kudo Yukiko stood at the door of the TV station, looking at the father and son who had been looking for her all afternoon, and pressed the brim of her hat guiltily.
In fact, not long after the recording of the program started, she remembered that she seemed to have forgotten some "business".
But at that time, the show had already started. And she had promised to be Jiang Xia's friend group. If she turned around and left, it would always feel like she was going back on her word, which was not very kind...
So Yukiko, who felt guilty, had an idea and found a suitable excuse for herself.
——I heard from the doctor that the members of the black organization gave Shinichi a stick on the back of his head as soon as they saw him.
But she and her husband couldn't be so cruel to their son, and his son was so smart. If this continues, Shinichi will definitely find that these two "organization members" are not violent at all when facing a naughty child who can toss them around.
This in turn casts doubt on their true identity.
Once discovered by their son, their "kidnapping" naturally turned into a farce, unable to make his son realize the danger of the organization.
Kudo Yukiko: "..." So, it is better to make the mistake and change the route - I suddenly disappeared.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is also an opportunity to let his son understand how dangerous his situation is. It just so happens that the father and son usually solve a lot of cases, and each one has bigger ideas than the last...
…
Outside the Japanese TV station building.
Facing the two resentful Kudos, Kudo Yukiko bit the bullet and came up with the words she had thought of in advance.
Kudo Yusaku thought "..." for a long time. Finally, he looked at his wife who was trying to be cute, sighed, and decided to cooperate with her temporarily, and then talk to her about the issue of losing contact without permission.
So Kudo Yusaku turned to Conan: "That's right. Have you ever thought about it, if you continue to stay here, once discovered by that organization, the lives of those around you will be threatened - just like your mother today."
However, Conan was not convinced at all. He looked at Kudo Yukiko speechlessly: "You must have followed Jiang Xia first, and then you remembered that I was still thrown in the house, so you made up this excuse... Anyway, please leave me alone.
,I won’t leave here!”
…………
Jiang Xia did not eavesdrop on the Kudo family's argument.
He returned home happily with his new shikigami.
After the live broadcast incident, Jiang Xia's reputation in the detective world became even higher - because that day, there was a genius photographer who live broadcast the contents of the crime scene without authorization.
Because the process of solving the case was so smooth, some people suspected that it was a script written in advance or some kind of "overtime special".
However, as the news came out the next day that the host was arrested and the producer was killed, this speculation completely faded away - the host and the producer are both celebrities, and it is unrealistic for them to die and be arrested for the sake of the show.
…
However, even though her reputation has increased, Jiang Xia still hasn't received those mysterious commissions from far away, promising to pick up many souls after attending the appointment.
He was still in the ordinary days of looking for cats and dogs to keep an eye on his mistress.
"..." Jiang Xia once wondered whether the entrustment was attracted by Conan to Moori Kogoro.
However, he used Kinoshita Yoko as an excuse to go to Mouri Kogoro's detective agency to secretly investigate several times. However, he found that Moori Kogoro had not received any decent commissions.
It seems that it’s not that the reputation is not enough, it’s just that the time has not come...
