Chapter 19 Suspect

"I resigned from the school where I worked before, and I just wanted to fly to the United States to relax."

"I usually like to read mystery novels, so as soon as I heard that someone was killed here, I rushed to the scene as soon as possible. But I didn't expect that someone was one step ahead of me."

When Kudo Shinichi heard the mystery novel, his eyes lit up and he confirmed: "Yes, I have been observing Mr. Yuan carefully after he entered the bathroom. He did not do anything to damage the scene. This is true for the people around him.

Those flight attendants can attest to that."

Officer Megure looked at the flight attendants.

"That's right, Mr. Police Officer, this young man wants us to monitor his every move, and the same goes for the gentleman who came in later. They didn't hide anything or erase anything, and they didn't behave strangely."

A flight attendant replied.

"...However, if you touch the corpse randomly, the stiff muscles will be destroyed, which will affect the judgment of the time of death."

Hearing that the two men did not damage the scene, Officer Memu breathed a sigh of relief, but he still found a reason to reprimand the two men.

Kudo Shinichi answered: "Judging from the condition of the corpse spots and the stiffness of the body, he has probably been dead for an hour or two."

"And there are still three doubts about the crime scene..."

He looked at Yuanhuaiyu with tentative eyes. When Kudo Shinichi heard this young man say that he was a lover of mystery novels, the idea of ​​​​discussion came into his mind.

The two of them spent almost the same time surveying the scene, and Mr. Yuan had a few minutes less than him. He wanted to hear whether Mr. Yuan also discovered the three doubtful points, or noticed something else that he had overlooked.

place.

Feeling Kudo Shinichi's passionate gaze, Yuan Huaiyu let out a long sigh.

Kudo Shinichi is always very energetic in detective and reasoning, and he is quite competitive.

"When the body was found, its upper body was leaning against the wall. There was blood spattered on the wall, but the clothes on the back were not stained."

"Under the fatal wound on the back of the body's neck, there were strange scratch marks near the shoulders."

"The left trouser pocket of the corpse was completely soaked, but the corpse's hands were not wet at all."

"The three doubtful points you mentioned should be correct."

Kudo Shinichi was slightly shocked. The three points mentioned by Mr. Source were completely consistent with his doubts about the crime scene.

On the other side, Wataru Takagi, who had just woken up in a daze, walked along the aisle and accompanied Officer Megure to begin a detailed investigation of the scene.

Soon, they came to a conclusion.

The cause of death of the deceased was suffocation caused by cervical spinal cord injury, and the time of death was consistent with Kudo Shinichi's judgment. There were empty bottles and handkerchiefs in the trash can, indicating that the deceased was probably killed after being knocked unconscious.

The two had no clue about these clues, so they decided to use the investigation method first to find out if anyone had been witnessed wandering around the bathroom during the death time.

"Four people are suspected." Kudo Shinichi stood up again.

"Ah?" Officer Memu opened his eyes wide.

Kudo Shinichi explained: "During that time, except for the victim, only four people went to the bathroom. I have been observing. Although I can't remember the time and order of going to the bathroom, but if I see their faces, I will

I’ll definitely remember it!”

"Were you awake all night?" Mao Lilan came over and stared at Xinyi's face and asked, "Didn't you fall asleep as soon as you got on the plane?"

"Really, falling asleep early and waking up in the middle of the night is like a baby." She hurt her childhood sweetheart mercilessly.

"Hehehe..." Shinichi could only respond with an awkward smile.

There was no way he could tell the girl in front of him that after he woke up in the middle of the night and saw her so close, he had wild thoughts and couldn't fall asleep at all, right?

Moreover, Mr. Yuan on the left saw through his thoughts, making him not feel sleepy at all.

Touching the back of his head, he looked guiltily at Yuan Huaiyu who was standing not far away.

Yuan Huaiyu obviously heard the conversation between the two and gave him a teasing smile.

Kudo Shinichi's face suddenly turned red.

Fortunately, someone helped him out at this time. Officer Memu said eagerly: "Tell me who the four suspects are!"

Kudo Shinichi hurried to the aisle, the redness on his face not completely fading. He looked at each passenger carefully and matched it with his memory.

"This woman, and the woman next to her." He stretched out his hand, pointing to the faces that had been to the bathroom during that time, "the gentleman across the aisle, and the foreigner sitting in the front seat."

"The seats of the four people are very close to each other," Officer Takagi said.

"Yes." Kudo Shinichi continued walking in the aisle to avoid making mistakes. He finally returned to the bathroom after he had looked at all the passengers.

At this time, the four suspects had been brought to the door of the bathroom. When they saw the bodies inside, they were all shocked.

"Heyang!" One of the four women shouted her boyfriend's name sternly.

Officer Takagi stopped her firmly and refused to let her get close to the body.

"But...why would the big eagle..." Another woman said to herself urgently.

"The reason should lie in that roll of film." The man sitting across the aisle from the deceased's seat expressed his suspicion while sweating.

"Negatives?" Except for the four suspects, everyone else looked over in confusion.

"Those are the negatives that he wants to sell to newspapers and make a lot of money. It also involves congressmen. Maybe the person who comes to visit is a professional killer."

The speaker was a gloomy-looking bearded man. He was not among the four suspects, but since the deceased and the two female suspects were his friends, he followed him.

"Anyway, let me ask you how the four of you went to the bathroom first!"

Officer Mumu frowned and said with dignity.

He needs to listen to the testimonies of these people before he can make subsequent judgments.

"A negative? I see, that's what happened."

Yuan Huaiyu nodded slightly without any trace, no longer paying attention to the noisy police officers and suspects, and walked towards his seat.

Kudo Shinichi immediately noticed Yuan Huaiyu's movements. He immediately followed him and shouted in confusion: "Mr. Yuan?"

In his opinion, this Mr. Yuan must be very good at reasoning and investigating cases. He was eager to try, and wanted to compete with Yuan Huaiyu to see who could find the murderer first, but he saw Mr. Yuan coming to the scene without looking back.

To leave.

"Huh?" Yuan Huaiyu turned around pretending to be confused.

"Why don't you come and listen to their testimonies? The murderer hasn't been found yet, why..." Kudo Shinichi followed and whispered.

"It's not necessary." Yuan Huaiyu smiled slightly, "I already know who killed that man."

"!!!" Kudo Shinichi had never opened his eyes so wide in his life.
