Chapter 73 Is it necessary to be so complicated to kill someone?
Faced with Kudo Shinichi's question, Suzuki Seimei was a little confused and said: "Brother Shinichi, isn't it just to kill someone? Is it necessary to be so complicated?"
Is it necessary to be so complicated? Is it necessary to be so complicated...
Suzuki Seimei's voice was like an echo, constantly echoing in Kudo Shinichi's mind, making him smile unconsciously: "You... you are right, we think too much."
This murder case is actually very simple. The biggest difficulty is that it takes advantage of the inherent thinking of the detectives, making them subconsciously believe that no one dares to kill in front of the detectives, so they immediately eliminate Mrs. Tsujimura as the biggest suspect.
.
Although Kudo Shinichi had already deduced that Mrs. Tsujimura was the murderer, he had also noticed the misleading clues left by Mrs. Tsujimura before and was almost led into a trap by her.
However, Suzuki Seimei, an amateur detective, is not limited by this inherent thinking and can ignore the misleading clues deliberately left by Mrs. Tsujimura.
I didn’t expect that I would be taught a lesson by this kid. Life is really unpredictable~
"Brother Shinichi, I advise you to put on your clothes quickly, otherwise you will be dead when Sister Xiaolan comes with the doctor." Suzuki Seimei stared at Kudo Shinichi, his face speechless.
reminded.
If Mao Lilan was naked, Suzuki Seimei wouldn't mind chatting with her for a while.
But when it comes to Kudo Shinichi, Suzuki Seimei always feels a little gay, so it would be better to ask him to put on his clothes quickly.
Kudo Shinichi finally came to his senses after hearing Suzuki Seimei's words. He quickly took out a set of clothes that fit better from the closet and borrowed them temporarily.
On the other side, Hattori Heiji, who successfully found a ball of fishing line from a hidden corner of the house, also returned to the murder scene with confidence.
"Kudo, if you don't show up, I will win this competition."
Hattori Heiji glanced at everyone and found that Kudo Shinichi had not appeared yet. He said with great confidence: "Everyone, I already know the techniques used in this secret room murder case and who the murderer is."
"Nani? Have you untied it?"
Mouri Kogoro, who was still thinking hard, heard this, his face changed slightly, and he secretly cursed in his heart: "Damn it! Why hasn't my second personality appeared yet? Do you really want this brat to steal the show?"
The expressions of the police present also became subtle. Although the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department are both subordinate to government departments, the police departments in different regions are also very competitive with each other.
Hattori Heiji is not only a high school detective in Osaka, but also the son of the Osaka Police Chief.
If this kid was really allowed to solve the case before them, Officer Megure could already imagine Chief Matsumoto spitting on him.
"Brother Maori, you are too useless~" Officer Megure couldn't help complaining: "Hurry up and start sleeping!"
╮(─▽─)╭
Mouri Kogoro's face was full of embarrassment: "Officer Megure, you are making things too difficult for me. I can't just fall asleep if I want to~"
"Next, let me explain to you the techniques of this secret room murder case!" Hattori Heiji walked up to Officer Megure and asked with a smile: "Officer Megure, can you please play the role of the deceased and cooperate with me?
What about me?"
"Ah? Oh... okay."
"Then please sit on the chair where the deceased sat before, and then maintain the same posture as before death."
"..."
Officer Megure glared at Mouri Kogoro with a resentful look, and then like a puppet on strings, he followed Hattori Heiji's instructions, propped his chin up with his hand, and sat down on the chair obediently.
"Everyone, at the time of the crime, the windows in the study were closed, and the only door that could be accessed was also locked, forming a perfect secret room."
Hattori Heiji adjusted the peaked cap on his head, and then changed the topic, "But in this room, there is actually a passage leading to the outside. To be more precise, it should be a gap!"
"Gap?"
When Mouri Kogoro heard this, he was slightly startled at first, and then he reacted instantly and focused his gaze on the crack in the door: "You mean the crack in the door!"
"That's right!"
Takagi Wataru looked puzzled and said: "But the door is so small, how can we put the key into the prisoner's pocket?"
"It's very simple. You just need to use fishing line to match it. This ball of fishing line is what I just found in this house." Hattori Heiji finished his words, took out the fishing line he just found, and started to fish in front of everyone.
Demonstrated the modus operandi.
With Officer Megure's lifeless expression, Hattori Heiji first put a fishing line with an iron needle through his trouser pocket, then pulled both ends of the fishing line and slowly walked out of the door, locking it with a key.
opened the door.
"Shashasha..."
After closing the door tightly, Hattori Heiji pasted the fishing line on the pendant of the key, and then slowly pulled the fishing line on the other side. The key slowly entered the study under the traction of the fishing line, slid all the way, and finally landed on the key.
He looked into Officer Mu's pocket.
After the key successfully entered Officer Megure's pocket, Hattori Heiji pulled hard, and the fishing line immediately slipped out of the tape, and he successfully retrieved it outside the door.
When everyone present saw this, they suddenly realized: "So that's it. In this case, it will be a perfect secret room."
( ̄ε(# ̄)☆╰╮( ̄▽ ̄///)
Although Officer Megure felt a little pain in his face, he had to admit that Hattori Heiji's reasoning ability was very strong and he was able to solve this secret room murder case so quickly. He was worthy of being a famous high school detective in Osaka.
"It would take at least about five minutes to kill someone using this technique, and the deceased's time of death was between 3:30 and 4:00 p.m."
Seeing that everyone was shocked by his reasoning, Hattori Heiji unhurriedly said: "So at four o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Tsujimura, who returned here with us, can be the first to rule out the suspicion.
Housekeeper Xiaochi, who had been chatting with nearby neighbors between three and four o'clock, also had no time to commit the crime.
As for the deceased's son and his girlfriend, although they also went to the second floor on the way, they only spent about two minutes, which was not enough time to complete the murder.
As a result, the only person who can commit the crime is Mr. Tsujimura, who came here at about two o'clock and has been watching TV in the room next to the study!"

Hearing this, Tsujimura Takayama shook his head without thinking: "What? Impossible! How could the murderer be grandpa?!"
