Everyone went to see the deceased's father for no apparent reason, and the latter sighed deeply, "I'm sorry, although it's too late to say this now, but I have indeed been regretting and blaming myself for what happened back then, and I also thought about confessing to you.
…”
"There is no need to say such things. Regret will not bring back my ex-husband's life, nor can it save your devilish son." Mrs. Tsujimura interrupted him coldly.
"What's going on?" Tsujimura Takazan was so confused that he almost went crazy. Katsuragi Sachiko on the side held his hand worriedly.
Mrs. Tsujimura glanced at the two of them, sighed, and said slowly:
"The matter is not complicated. Twenty years ago, Tsujimura Isao deliberately framed my ex-husband, fellow diplomat Kenji Yamashiro, for dereliction of duty. After having him killed in prison, he deceived me, who didn't know the truth at the time, into marrying me.
Go home, and Sachiko is my and Yamashiro’s daughter..."
"I have figured out all the tricks used by prisoners to create secret rooms!"
Before Hattori Heiji arrived, his confident words had already reached the study room, interrupting Mrs. Tsujimura's confession.
Holding the fishing line he dug out of the trash can in the living room next door in his pocket, he walked through the crowd and walked to the center of the room while explaining.
"Although this room seems to be a secret room without any entrance for prisoners to enter or exit, there is a gap for keys to enter and exit!
Detective Maori, be the victim for a moment, and then I will show you how the criminal put the key into the deceased's pocket outside the door!"
As Hattori Heiji spoke, he stared at Mouri Kogoro. Isn't Kudo Shinichi coming out yet? If not, he will win this case!
Mouri Kogoro looked confused, "What secret room technique? The criminal has been caught."
"What?! The criminal was caught?"
Hattori Heiji was shocked. He only went out for a few minutes and came back immediately after finding the evidence. Could it be that in such a short time, Kudo Shinichi had quietly solved the case?
"Yes, the prisoner Mrs. Tsujimura has confessed..." Mouri Kogoro didn't know what he was surprised about.
"Mrs. Tsujimura? How could it be her? The prisoner is clearly Toshimitsu Tsujimura!" Hattori Heiji blurted out.
Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, and looked at Shizuo Komemon.
"Look what I did? Let him say, maybe I really made a mistake."
Shizuo Komemon said this sincerely. He never thought that his messy methods would be 100% error-free. Although Mrs. Tsujimura did acquiesce in the crime, there might be some accident, right?
For example, taking the blame, thinking that she killed someone, but in fact she failed, and someone had killed the victim before her. These are all possible.
After hearing this, Hattori Heiji's impression of Fumimon Shizuo changed somewhat. Although he acted a little rudely, he was at least willing to listen to correct opinions and was not arbitrary.
"So, can I first ask this criminal why he decided that Mrs. Tsujimura was the murderer?"
In a duel, since the opponent has shown grace, Hattori Heiji always has to pay attention to the fruits of the opponent's labor and get to know him a little bit.
Miwako Sato saw that Komemon had no objection to the crime, and Manager Kuroda originally wanted to watch the duel between the two sides, so she showed the evidence bag in her hand.
"We found evidence from Mrs. Tsujimura. The same key ring as the deceased found a groove for hiding poison needles, and residual poison was detected inside. Mrs. Tsujimura has not denied her crime yet...
"
Hearing Miwako Sato's words, Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, and then stared at the evidence bag in her hand, a little unbelievable.
Poison was found on the key ring...
But if the murderer was Mrs. Tsujimura, how did she do it? She obviously left home very early, rushed to the Mori Detective Agency, and came back with them.
Hattori Heiji had just been a little excited because he was in sight of victory. His mind was filled with his own secret room techniques, and he got into trouble. He couldn't calm down and think for a while.
"That's what happened. Now please start your reasoning." After Miwako Sato finished speaking, she looked at Hattori Heiji.
"Ah? Oh." Hattori Heiji was a little distracted and turned to look at Moori Kogoro, "Can you pretend to be the deceased, please? I will now demonstrate how to put the key into the deceased's pocket outside the locked door.
."
"Hmph, you do know how to instigate others." Mouri Kogoro said angrily.
Mao Lilan advised: "Dad, just cooperate with me, it won't be too much trouble."
Mao Lilan always feels that Hattori Heiji has the shadow of Shinichi. If Shinichi were here, he would probably do the same thing as him...
Mouri Kogoro reluctantly sat down behind the desk and followed Hattori Heiji's instructions, leaning on his face and assuming the same posture as the deceased.
Then... Hattori Heiji was stunned again. While instructing Mouri Kogoro to pose, he suddenly noticed a stack of thick books on the desk.
They are too conspicuous and obtrusive...
In an instant, Hattori Heiji suddenly understood if the murderer was Mrs. Tsujimura, how she committed the murder.
In front of him, the detective...with the help of books to hide...directly killed the victim...
"What's wrong? Let's start quickly. This posture will make you tired after a long time, okay?" Mouri Kogoro complained.
Hattori Heiji had begun to waver in his heart, but after hearing the words, he came back to his senses and chose to continue reasoning under the gaze of everyone.
Although the other party's reasoning is feasible, his method is also feasible...
He put on the gloves lent to him by the forensics class, tied the fishing line to an iron needle, stuck it to the tape in the deceased's key ring, and then used the needle to pass through Mouri Kogoro's trouser pocket.
Then he threw away the needle, took the fishing line and the key out of the study, locked the door with the key, and finally pulled the fishing line and returned the key to the deceased's trouser pocket.
After the demonstration, everyone was a little surprised and confused. It seemed that the detective's skills were very good. Is the murderer still Mrs. Tsujimura?
The Gu Meimen criminal did not come up with such wonderful tactics, and how Mrs. Tsujimura committed the crime has not been explained until now.
Miwako Sato looked at Shizuo Fumimon with some worry.
Komemon Shizuo is actually very calm, mainly because what he is thinking about is different from others - this method is so familiar.
He still remembered the case quite clearly in which he used three chess pieces and used an audio tape to deliver the key under the book outside the door. When he thought of this, he thought of Haihara Ai again.
My thoughts stopped for a while.
This duel seems exciting to outsiders. Both sides have sufficient reasons to choose a prisoner.
However, the person involved, Hattori Heiji, was not very excited, and even became more and more self-doubtful. This suspicion reached its peak when he checked the key into the pocket of Kogoro Mori's pants.
There was something wrong with the way the key was entered. His method could not make the key look the same as when it was found in the deceased's trouser pocket.
Hattori Heiji squatted beside Mouri Kogoro's trouser pocket and tinkered with it for a long time, which made Mouri Kogoro feel uncomfortable all over, and he let out a few weird exclamations from time to time.
"I lost..."
After a while, Hattori Heiji stopped moving and stood up slowly. His tone was a little disappointed, but he did not continue to be harsh.
