Chapter 21: Suddenly enlightened

"What?! There's no murder weapon found on the five people or in their luggage?"

Officer Megure looked at Takagi in disbelief.

Officer Takagi sweated and replied: "No one has anything similar to ice picks. I have also searched all the places where the murder weapon might be hidden in the plane, but there is none."

Kudo Shinichi heard the conversation between the two and frowned.

Normally, he might think this is an interesting case. The missing murder weapon and the confusing testimony can quite stimulate his thirst for knowledge as a detective.

But this time was different. Because while he was still thinking hard, a detective had already solved the mystery early and told him the clues to solve the case.

Although I don't know why Mr. Yuan didn't reveal the truth on the spot, at this moment, Kudo Shinichi's mind was filled with the key to breaking the situation mentioned by Yuan Huaiyu.

"The blindfold" and the "weapon only adults know about".

Kudo Shinichi scratched his hair anxiously, as if he had caught some inspiration, but he was still unable to put the inspiration through the entire incident and get the answer.

"Hey! Shinichi! Officer Megure and the others seem to be planning to search the luggage of those five people again." Mao Lilan reminded Shinichi when he saw that Shinichi seemed completely clueless.

Shinichi stamped his feet one by one. Although he also wanted to find the truth on his own, after all, a life had been lost. The suspects he identified had endured so much, either sincerely or falsely, and they were beginning to feel a little irritated and confused.

There are signs of refusal to cooperate.

He made up his mind that if this search could not find any clues, he would ask Mr. Yuan for advice and let Mr. Yuan tell everyone his reasoning.

Following Officer Megure, he looked at the luggage of several suspects while recalling each person's testimony.

The suspect of the deceased's girlfriend Amano Tsumi seems to be the least suspicious, because two stewardesses and Tsuneo Uzawa testified for her at the same time. When she came back from the bathroom, the victim Ohtaka Kazuhiro was still wearing an eye mask and a woolen hat, and was sitting covered with a blanket.

She was sleeping soundly next to her.

Her luggage contained only her passport, wallet, handkerchief, woolen hat and camera, cosmetics, sewing box and some motion sickness medicine.

The only sharp objects that can be considered sharp are the needles in the sewing box, but they are only about an inch long and are far from capable of injuring the cervical spinal cord.

The second piece of luggage came from another woman, Chizuru Tachikawa. In addition to her passport, wallet and cosmetics, she also had sunglasses, a camera, a notepad and a ball pen. The inside of the ball pen was also checked and found nothing abnormal.

According to her testimony, she woke up because of the noise caused by the airsick Amano Tsumi. Her seat was in the row by the window. On her left was Amano Tsumi, and further to the left was the victim Ohtaka.

In order to take care of Amano Tsumi who was airsick, she offered to exchange seats with Amano so that Amano could sit by the window. When they changed seats, Otaka was no longer in the seat, and only Noboru Saginuma, who was sitting behind Otaka, was fast asleep.

With.

Later, she saw that Daying had not come back from the bathroom, so she went to the bathroom out of concern. Only one of the four bathrooms was occupied, so she was sure that Daying was there.

When she knocked on the door and asked, "Are you okay?", she received a knock on the door from the big eagle. This meant that the big eagle was still alive at that time.

Next was Tsuneo Uzawa, who had had some disputes with the victim over smoking. He was sitting on the left side of the victim, across the aisle.

His luggage included razors, towels, shaving cream, and masks.

The time when Uzawa went to the bathroom was a few minutes after he saw flight attendant A getting medicine for Amano. The victim was still in his seat at that time. Another flight attendant B can confirm this.

At that time, he was wandering in the aisle. Stewardess B saw him and came to ask if he needed help.

Next is the foreigner Edward. The most noteworthy thing in his luggage is a large check.

After talking to him in English, Shinichi learned that he originally wanted to participate in an auction in Japan, but there was nothing he liked at the auction, so he had such a check.

The foreigner said he had no memory of when he went to the bathroom.

Even though the uncertainty about time would aggravate the suspicion on him, he did not change his story at all, let alone find others to prove himself.

Shinichi also made an additional discovery - although the foreigner smelled strongly of cologne, he did not spray it on his wrists.

Finally, Shinichi did not see Saginuma Noboru going to the bathroom. There was a large amount of airsickness medicine in his luggage. According to him, this was because he was very airsick, so Tachikawa Chizuru and Amano Tsumi would give him some.

Air sickness medicine.

During the search, Officers Shinichi and Megure suddenly made new discoveries.

When they wanted to take out the negatives for inspection, Saginuma Noboru suddenly became excited and wanted to stop them.

"Isn't this Congressman Dickson from the United States?" Shinichi looked at the film in his hand.

"Really! With a woman!" Officer Takagi also came over.

"Hey! You guys..." Saginuma Sheng was a little anxious.

Tachikawa Chizuru also looked over and said in surprise: "Isn't this the film of Ohtaka?"

She, Amano and others all saw Ohtaka showing off his negatives that "would sell for a lot of money".

Saginuma explained in a panic: "I took this photo with Otaka. Although it's not as good as his, I wanted to go to the United States this time to see if I could get a better price..."

Everyone looked over with suspicion, because a valuable roll of film happened to be missing from the victim Daying and Yang!

Uzawa Tsuneo immediately jumped out, pointed at Saginuma's nose and said: "You must have killed someone! You were the only one who lied! You said you had been sleeping, but it was clear that when Ms. Amano was looking for the flight attendant, I saw

There is no one in your seat behind the deceased!"

He looked at Officer Megure: "Mr. Officer, that flight attendant can testify for me!"

Officer Memu looked at stewardess B.

Stewardess B stared at Lunuma's face, hesitantly: "No, it doesn't seem like he's here..."

Saginuma suddenly panicked. He rushed to stewardess B and shouted: "Hey, what are you talking about!"

Fortunately, his friend Tachikawa Chizuru stood up and said firmly: "But when the stewardess brought the medicine, Saginuma was sleeping in the back!"

So the two sides started to quarrel, and both felt that the other party had made a mistake, or even committed perjury.

Kudo Shinichi's eyes widened slightly as he looked at the chaotic scene in front of him.

Beside him, Mao Lilan tugged on his clothes and asked worriedly: "Xinyi, are you really remembering correctly?"

Xin Xin looked over subconsciously, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the ups and downs in front of his childhood sweetheart.

The next second, his eyes lit up.

A sudden inspiration came to me, and I suddenly became enlightened.
