Then the next step is to find evidence and murderous intent.
As well as figuring out what was going on with this sudden power outage, it almost frightened both Conan and Shiraijiu.
Regarding this point, Kogoro Mori, who came from the power supply room, rushed over and asked everyone to return to the power supply room together, showing everyone the delay device——
"First wrap the rope around the electric switch, tie a heavy object to the lower end, and then use something to fix it. Finally, tie the rope in the middle of the candle. When the time is up, the rope will be burned by the candle flame. When the heavy object falls, the electric switch will
Naturally, it was closed..."
Mouri Kogoro dares to be a detective, but he still has basic skills. He easily explained this small mechanism to everyone and analyzed it.
"The tools used in this device are probably in the warehouse. Judging from the burning of the candles, this thing should have been installed a long time ago... In other words, anyone can cut off the power supply.
Deliberately causing a power outage to assassinate Ichiro."
Mouri Kogoro looked at all the people of the Emoto family present - excluding the injured Ichiro Emoto.
"So, you are all suspects! Of course, Xiao Wu, whose whereabouts are unknown, is no exception..."
"In short, there must be no more murders! I will be responsible for finding the key person - Mr. Xiao Wu! Before that, please don't step out of the restaurant again, no problem!"
I have to say that Uncle Maori took the initiative to stand up and take charge of finding the most dangerous suspect under the premise that two people were dead. He was really handsome. He was not at all like the famous waste that Baijiu had heard of in his previous life.
He has a supporting role and solves crimes all by sleeping.
...It is true that his powers of observation are not as good as those of Conan or Shirai Ku, and his imagination is a little richer and more confident, so that he will testify against the prisoner or draw conclusions without enough evidence.
Well, speaking of this, Shirai Ku really wants to ask Mouri Kogoro, did you really not notice that the position where Ichiro Ichiro was stabbed was very subtle? Even if it was pitch black and you couldn't see, who would stab him with a knife?
Go down and only slightly hurt his thigh? Then again, the fact that it reaches his thigh is already very strange...
Forget it, I just praised Mouri Kogoro, so don't be too harsh on him. Conan just knows that there is a problem.
Shiraijiu lay on the table.
Mouri Kogoro and Mouri Ran were led by Butler Suzuki and searched for Takehiko Caijo. Conan followed them and took the opportunity to find more powerful evidence. Shirai Ku stayed in the restaurant, quietly monitoring Ichiro Komoto to prevent him from having any unnecessary trouble.
Action - once it happens, as a child, although she is unable to stop it, she can still do it by warning everyone to pay attention.
Ichiro Ichiro, whose leg was injured, groaned in pain from time to time, and it seemed that he didn't want to cause any more trouble.
Time passed quietly bit by bit, and the sun rose over the sea. The scenery was spectacular and beautiful, but no one appreciated it.
After a while, Xiaolan walked into the restaurant and informed everyone to gather in Qiujiang's room. Mouri Kogoro had something important to announce to everyone there.
"My room?" Qiu Jiang looked a little sad at that time, thinking too much.
"Qiu Jiang's room..." Mariko Tsutomoto turned to look at Qiu Jiang, "could it be you...!"
"Okay, don't guess anymore. Anyway, let's go there first and find out what Mr. Mori wants to say." Shoji Shoji, as the only healthy man here, took the initiative to take control of the situation. Mariko
Although she was still very dissatisfied with her brother, she was still a little scared because her son was injured, so she didn't say anything more.
The group of people finally stood up. Ichiro Ichimoto, supported by his father, followed everyone to Qiu Jiang's room in silence.
When the door opened, everyone only saw the back of Kogoro Mouri. He looked deeply at the sea view outside the window, looking confident.
Shiraijiu had a strong sense of déjà vu.
Even if she had not watched "Detective Conan" in the previous world, this action of Mouri Kogoro, no matter what, everyone who saw it could understand, "Ah, this is the legendary [Sleeping Moori Kogoro]"
】Ah..." feeling.
Sure enough, Mouri Kogoro spoke.
He didn't turn around or move, but his tone was different from before, as if a great detective was about to start solving a case.
"I finally know...who committed those three consecutive cases, the murderer!"
Everyone:......?!!!
"Yes, who is it?"
"Who is the murderer?!"
"Isn't it Xiao Wu?"
"It must be Xiao Wu, right?"
"Don't be impatient..." Mouri Kogoro said calmly and calmly, "Before I name the murderer, let's review these three cases."
"First of all, Mr. Haozang died in a room that was locked from the inside... Judging from the blood stains on the threshold, it is very likely that after Mr. Haozang was stabbed outside, in order to avoid the murderer, he fled into the room and locked the door.
After being locked up, he bled to death. And the flowers that fell at the door..."
"That's right! That flower can prove that Xiao Wu is the murderer..." Qiu Jiang said.
"But as Xiaojiu said, the floor at the door was cleaned by the murderer. Logically speaking, he wouldn't have missed it, and the murderer couldn't have deliberately left evidence for us to see. Therefore, the flowers were deliberately placed there to wipe them away.
Bloodstained hallway!"
"However, it is also possible that Xiao Wu took advantage of this mentality and deliberately stayed!" Qiu Jiang stubbornly believed that the murderer was Xiao Wu. "By the way! Maybe it was Long Nan who told him and saw through his thoughts, so he killed Long Nan.
…”
"No, Ryuuo's death was an accident!" Mouri Kogoro interrupted Qiu Jiang decisively and confidently, and what he said surprised everyone.
"Unexpected?!"
"Yes, it was an accident."
"Please note that next to Long Nan's body, the murderer did not leave any evidence such as a murder weapon at the scene, which is different from what happened just now when he planted flowers and used devices to cause a power outage."
"If these three cases were committed by the same person, then I think the murder of Long Nan was actually not expected by the murderer in advance. As for the reason why Long Nan was killed...the answer lies in this box."
Shiraijiu saw Mouri Kogoro lifting a box up in a swaying manner, as if the box was about to fall to the ground in the next moment. Baijiu couldn't help but sweat for Conan.
Fortunately, the box was quickly placed on the table, and then a very strange hand that was obviously much shorter opened the box, revealing the knives inside.
Shiraijiu:……
Did no one really notice anything was wrong...
Shiraijiu turned around and looked around. Everyone seemed to be immersed in the detective's reasoning, and Shoji Shoji, who was observing carefully, was also focused on his own box, "That, that is my tool box."
!!”
"You see, two knives are missing. One of them was dropped at the scene of the third case, but the other one has not been found yet..."
"And the key is the voice Conan heard when Long Nan was killed!"
"The thumping sound should be the sound made by the murderer beating Long Nan... Then, what was the sound of water before?"
"Since the sound of water precedes the sound of the thump, it is definitely not the sound made by the murderer when he jumped into the sea to escape, but the sound of something being thrown into the sea, and Long Nan's death is directly related to this thing."
"What exactly was lost?"
"We can assume that the knife that was thrown into the sea was the knife that has not been found yet, but the murderer did not expect that this scene was seen by Long Nan who happened to be on the deck, so the murderer had no choice but to kill and silence him!!"
Having said this, Conan was also a little scared, because Shirai Sakeko was also on the deck at that time! If Shirai had rushed out at that time, then Shirai Sakeko might also have been attacked!
Too careless. After all, Shirai Sakeko is an elementary school student now. Even if she is calmer than most high school students, it is still very dangerous to face a murderer who has killed two people in a row. Let her be more careful next time.
Here, the death process deduced by Kogoro Mouri of Ryuuo Tsutomoto did not dispel the suspicion of Xiaowu from the Subomoto family.
"But after Long Nan was killed, Xiao Wu also disappeared from the ship!"
"That's right! If he wasn't guilty, why would he still be hiding! So the most suspicious one is Xiao Wu!!"
"That's right, if he didn't kill anyone, then why did he run away? Let him come out and explain to you about this..."
Everyone was stunned.
"Ben, myself?"
"Did you find Xiao Wu?!"
Mouri Kogoro's voice was simply confident: "Xiaowu, stop hiding, come out!"
Following Mouri Kogoro's calm and dignified voice, a sound came from the wardrobe behind everyone——
