A uniformed policeman walked in, walked quickly to Aida Hikoichi, and saluted: "Officer Aida, just now Shu Sang and Detective Yueshui asked me to ask you, as well as all the people involved in the case, to go to the god on the other side of the cliff.
Go to the hall..."
"Ah? What? The shrine?" Aida Hikoichi looked impatient, "Why go to the shrine? Hasn't it been inspected there? It shouldn't have anything to do with the case, right?"
"But...the Yueshui detective said that she wanted to reveal all the truth about this serial murder case there, so let us go there..." the policeman explained, "...that's what she said..."
"She told you the truth about the case?!" Aida Hikoichi's expression suddenly became serious, "Well... let's go over and take a look together."
…
Inside the shrine.
Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi, Yuesui Qishui, and Sonoko walked in together again, looking up at the statue of Qingbozhu installed in the shrine, Sonoko looked frightened again: "Uh... why should we?
Are you coming to this place? It looks scary, okay?"
Koshizui Nanatsuki smiled slightly: "Of course I came here to look for evidence!"
While speaking, Koshizui Nanatsuki's eyes fell on the statue again.
Yuanzi still looked strange: "Evidence? Is there any evidence hidden in this shrine?"
Shu Yunwen nodded, held his chin, and suddenly said to Cheng Shi beside him: "Cheng Shi, please help me look for it."
Chengshi is a ghost, he can float and walk through walls. If anyone wants to find the fastest thing here, it is definitely Chengshi.
In the air, Cheng Shi nodded, then the ghost body circled around twice, and finally returned to Shu Yunwen. He pointed behind the statue and gestured in sign language: "There is a mechanism behind the statue of Master Qingfang, and it is inside the belly of the statue."
It's empty and there are a lot of glass bottles."
"Hmm... Sure enough, is it hidden in the belly of the idol Aobo Master?"
Shu Yunwen groaned and was about to go behind the statue to take a look. At this time, he heard footsteps coming from outside.
Everyone turned around and saw that Hikoichi Aida, Renzo Koutani, Sanji Fukuda, and Tomoe Yamamoto were already standing outside, followed by some police officers.
Aida Yanyi looked at Shu Yunwen and the others: "Shu Sang, Detective Yueshui, I have brought the housekeeper Kotani, Mr. Fukuda and Mr. Yamamoto. What is the truth you said?"
"Uh...are you here already?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki turned to look at the door with a smile on his face, "In that case, why not let me reveal the truth first!"
"...First of all, he is a serial murderer who committed eighteen murders and cut off the little finger of his victim's right hand. If my reasoning is correct, the real murderer..."
Koshizui Nanatsuki's gaze fell on Kōtani Renzo: "...that's you, Mr. Kōtani Renzo, the butler, right?"
"Ah?" Inside the shrine, Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi, Sonoko, Aida Hikoichi, etc., all looked surprised. They looked at Koshikoshi Nanatsuki, then at Kotani Renzo——
The murderer is Kabutani Renzo? How is this possible?!
As for Kotani Renzo, he waved his hands quickly and said: "Miss Detective, please, please stop joking! How could I be the murderer?"
"Wait a minute!" Hiko Aida waved his hand and looked at Koshizui Nanatsuki with an expression of "Are you kidding me?" "Detective Koshizui, you said the murderer was Mr. Kotani Kenzo? But, according to
Our current evidence can conclude that Mr. Takeru Otsuka is the real murderer of this serial murder case, right? However, if we want to talk about being an accomplice..."
Aida Hiko turned his head and looked at Kotani Kenzo: "...this butler Kotani, who has followed Mr. Otsuka for seventeen years, is the most suspicious!"
"No! The murderer of this serial murder case is the Kotani Butler. You can't be wrong." Koshizui Nanatsuki said, "As for Mr. Otsuka, he was only used by the Kotani Butler without knowing it.
.Furthermore...there should be no accomplices in these eighteen cases, they were all committed by Butler Jiagu alone."
"Am I right? Butler Jiagu."
"No! Of course it's not right!" Jiagu Rensan shook his head quickly.
Aida Hikoichi said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Detective Koshimizu, you haven't forgotten, have you? Mr. Otsuka died of suicide. Although the room is not a secret room, there is a message written by the master left in the room.
Suicide note. The handwriting on the suicide note is very neat, and it does not look like it was written by someone. As for the handwriting on the suicide note, after our identification, it is completely consistent with the handwriting on the calendar and documents in Mr. Otsuka's room, and there is no possibility of others imitating it.
.”
"...Moreover, the contents of the suicide note, Mr. Otsuka admitted that he was a serial murderer who killed eighteen victims, is this still false?"
Koshizui Nanatsuki said: "The handwriting identification is consistent. At most, it can only prove that the suicide note left in Mr. Otsuka's suicide room, as well as the signatures, annotations, and words on the calendar in Mr. Otsuka's room are all the same
It’s just written by someone. It doesn’t mean that it was written by Mr. Otsuka or someone else.”
"For example, the most trusted person in the villa is the housekeeper Koya who can enter and leave Mr. Otsuka's room at any time..."
"No, stop joking! How could that suicide note be written by me?" Kotani Renzo defended.
Shu Yunwen also said: "Yue Shui, if the suicide note and the signatures on the documents in Mr. Otsuka's room were all written by the housekeeper of Jiagu, I believe the police must have discovered it long ago, right?" As he said,
Shu Yunwen turned to look at Aida Yanichi: "After all, the police should have collected the handwriting of other people in the villa and made relevant comparisons, right?"
"Of course!"
Aida Yan nodded - what happened today was a super major case! Every suspicious link needs to be carefully verified.
They have authenticated the handwriting of everyone in the villa!

?Then...have you authenticated the words written on his right hand? As far as I know, Butler Kotani seems to be able to use both hands, and he uses them well, right, Mr. Fukuda?"
Koshizui Nanatsuki said, turning to look at Fukuda Sanji: "You have said before that although Kotani Butler is left-handed, he was corrected when he was young, so he can use both hands skillfully..."
"Yes, that's right, it is indeed like this..." Fukuda Sanji nodded in agreement, looked at Koutani Renzo next to him, and couldn't help but move a few steps to the side.
"Officer Aida, have you asked for a sample of the handwriting of Butler Kotani's right hand?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked.
"No, no." Aida Hikoichi's eyes towards Kotani Renzo also changed slightly at this time, "However, if it is true as you said, the handwriting on the suicide note, documents, and calendar are all for the use of Kotani's housekeeper.
Written by the right hand, then...why did Mr. Otsuka do this?"
Koshimizu Nanatsuki continued to explain: "That's because... Mr. Otsuka's right hand can no longer hold a pen, right?"
"Mr. Otsuka's right hand...can't hold a pen?"
"That's right." Koshimizu Nanatsuki continued his reasoning, "The chef, Mr. Fukuda, and the gardener, Mr. Yamamoto, both said that not long after the death of the eldest lady, Mr. Otsuka once said, 'It doesn't matter if it hurts.'
"It's better to just die" and the like. In the sentence "It hurts, so what", I originally thought it was Mr. Otsuka saying that he was in pain. However, when I thought about it carefully, it should be his body.
Something happened. For example, his right hand hurts..."
Aida Yanichi immediately said: "But even if Mr. Otsuka said, 'It doesn't matter if it hurts,' it doesn't have to be the right hand, right?"
Koshimizu Nanatsuki smiled slightly: "I have proof that Mr. Otsuka can't hold a pen with his right hand."
"Mr. Fukuda, if I remember correctly, you once said that since the death of the eldest lady, Mr. Otsuka has become very fond of eating curry, fried rice, rice porridge, steamed buns, cakes, and barbecue. He especially dislikes eating noodles. And
He also got angry at you and said that he would never eat any noodle-based food in the future...but Mr. Otsuka clearly liked eating udon, soba, and ramen in the past."
"Mr. Police Officer, you should understand after hearing this, right?"
