Chapter 115: The suspect is Qin Zhibo? (3k, please subscribe)
Maybe it's because Conan is too small and not so conspicuous, so Megure summarized the rules on Mouri Kogoro and Qin Zhibo.
"Well...it's not like this every time..."
Mouri Kogoro scratched his head with an awkward smile. In fact, he did not want to deny the rule summarized by Memu, but wanted to say, "Even if Qin Zhibo is not nearby, he often encounters cases."
But when I thought about saying this, it felt like I was like a walking disaster star, so I simply stopped saying it.
Qin Zhibo on the side did not agree with the wrong rules summarized by Mu Mu.
At this time, the body of Abbot Tianyong on the beam was removed with the efforts of the police.
【Survey√】
[Name: Kikuno Nagakazu]
[Death time: 9 hours ago]
[Cause of death: Asphyxia caused by neck compression]
[The corpse investigation is completed, congratulations on obtaining the skills Art and Craft (Performance)]
...
Arts and Crafts (Performance): Performance refers to your ability to interpret human movements or expressions. Improving this skill will improve your acting skills and ability to imitate others.
Grade 1
Proficiency:100/1000
(The Best Actor (Queen) starts from here!)
...
This is a new skill and has never been seen before.
Qin Zhibo was a little surprised, but not that surprised, that he could actually learn a performance skill from the monk.
Judging from the story-telling skills of Abbot Tianyong yesterday, the horror atmosphere was created just right, and his acting skills were indeed online.
Moreover, according to Qin Zhibo's understanding, Japanese monks are a profession, and there are very few monks who can strictly abide by the five precepts and practice with pure six roots.
This can be seen from the fact that Abbot Tianyong loves to look at beauties in bikinis on the beach.
Therefore, the Japanese monk is not so much a convert to Buddhism as a cosplay of a monk who converted to Buddhism.
When the person dies, go and recite the Muddle-headed Sutra to the family members, develop the tertiary industry if you have nothing to do, and you will make money.
Going back to the performance skills themselves, Qin Zhibo also needs them, because these performance skills and the art of disguise are a perfect match.
If you use performance skills combined with the art of disguise, wouldn't it be possible to disguise yourself as someone else and be difficult to detect?
...
Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about how to make good use of his new skills in the future, Conan on the side made a brilliant point in a tone of "ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah."
"Ah? Master Kuan Nian's intuition is really accurate..."
"If the person next to me had disappeared, I would never have discovered the person hanging from such a high ceiling so quickly."
As soon as Hua Dian was raised, Memu and Maori immediately started questioning each other.
Under the aggressive offensive of the two men, "the incident" that the monks at Shanni Temple had kept silent about was finally exposed.
It turns out that this is not the first time someone has been hanged in a monastery’s practice room.
Two years ago, there was another monk named Zhongnian in the temple who was hanged in his practice room in the same way as Abbot Tianyong.
"Oh! When you said that, I remembered that I was also responsible for that case."
"It seems that the outcome of the case is suicide..."
Maybe it was because there were so many murder cases handled in the past two years that he forgot that he had ever come here to handle a murder case before, Mu Mu recalled with his chin held high.
However, although the police have determined that it was suicide, what the monks in the temple are still struggling with is not suicide, but...
"It's the foggy dog!"
"Only a foggy dog has the strength to create such a big hole in the wall!"
Kuan Nian excitedly pointed to a large hole in the corridor facing the cliff in the practice room, and explained that such a large hole in the wall could not be easily dug out by human power.
But the atheist Megure and Mouri Kogoro looked at each other with disdain and remained unmoved at all.
"Baga Bagaxi..."
"There is no such monster in the world."
some...
But it may not be what humans imagine.
Thinking of the strange creature he encountered last night, Qin Zhibo silently refuted Officer Mumu's words in his heart.
At the same time, Conan thought again and again and finally decided to point his finger at Qin Zhibo.
"Uncle Qin, you weren't in your room around two o'clock last night, right?"
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Zhibo.
That look in his eyes seemed to be saying...
Is Qin Zhibo a suspect?
The righteousness of destroying relatives (Qin)?
As soon as Conan's testimony came out, Qin Zhibo immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
Officer Mumu stepped forward directly and said bluntly: "Brother Qin, is what Conan said true?"
Qin Zhibo glanced at Conan calmly.
Since Conan accurately stated the time at two o'clock last night, it means that Conan went to his room at that time to confirm.
So now there is no point in lying, but it is easy to make the story darker and darker.
"I was definitely not in the room at the time."
"Where did you go?"
"Going out for a walk..."
"Going for a walk in the middle of the night?"
Officer Mumu was doubtful of Qin Zhibo's words, but at this moment, Conan gave another assist.
"Uncle Qin, I remember that the suitcase you brought when you came was not in the room at that time..."
"Suitcase?" Officer Mumu turned to Qin Zhibo and asked, "What's in the suitcase?"
This guy...
Looking at Conan's flat head, Qin Zhibo had the urge to expose Edogawa Conan as Kudo Shinichi in public.
But after a second thought, I decided to forget it first.
There will be many opportunities to take revenge on Conan in the future, but for now it is better to get rid of the suspicion on yourself first.
Qin Zhibo cleared his throat and said seriously: "First of all, the contents of my suitcase have nothing to do with this case, and there is nothing illegal in them. Conan should know this."
Since Conan paid special attention to his suitcase, Qin Zhibo could easily guess that it was Dr. Ali who revealed the suitcase to him.
"Secondly, since Conan knows accurately that I was not in the room at two o'clock last night, and Abbot Tianyong's death time was around 11 o'clock."
"There is a lot of time difference. If I were a prisoner, it would be impossible for me to delay returning to the room after killing the person. This would arouse suspicion."
"In the end, I had no motive at all to kill an old abbot I had never met before."
Qin Zhibo's words were clear and coherent, which made Mu Mu, who was doing business, feel a little embarrassed.
Isn't it a bit unkind to doubt my brother who has made great contributions to me because of the clueless testimony of a primary school student?
"Well...brother Qin, don't be angry, I'm just asking you a routine question."
Officer Memu comforted his brother, and then, as if to find a psychological balance for his brother, he began to ask other people for their alibi.
As for Conan, of course he didn't really suspect Qin Zhibo of killing the old abbot.
Conan simply wanted to use the name of Officer Mumu to find out why Qin Zhibo left the temple in the middle of the night with the device in his suitcase.
However, Qin Zhibo's social credit during this period was still very useful, and he got through easily.
Just when Conan's plan failed and he tried another trick to test Qin Zhibo, Qin Zhibo took the initiative to walk up to Conan and stroked Conan's head with a smile.
"If you just tell nonsense without evidence, uncle, I will be angry too~"
After the words fell, Qin Zhibo took out the handkerchief Kudo Shinichi had lent him with his other hand and pretended to wipe his hands.
To outsiders, this action seemed like Qin Zhibo took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands because he disliked Conan's hair being a little greasy.
But it is actually a hint that if you ask about the box again, I will take off your vest.
you are vicious!
Conan glanced sideways at Qin Zhibo and left dejectedly.
Qin Zhibo, who was free, continued to look up and watch "Little Black"'s crime show.
In fact, before the police arrived, Qin Zhibo had already completed the search of all investigation points and unlocked the reenactment of the scene.
For a crime like this that occurs in a small space, the search at the investigation point cannot be too simple.
It's just that the crime this time took a long time. Even in fast forward, the reenactment of the scene was not over until Officer Megure arrived.
At this time, when Qin Zhibo raised his head, he could see "Xiao Hei" floating above the practice room, almost as high as the forensic inspector Dengmi who was lying on the beam doing forensic work.
Before that, "Xiao Hei" carried out a series of incredible preparations, and then allowed himself to float upwards in the practice room for a long time as if floating in water.
Now, "Xiao Hei" finally slowly floated to the height of the rafter and made a motion of putting the rope on the rafter.
At this time, the Forensic Officer Demi who was lying on the beam of the house in reality also happened to make some discoveries and was ready to report to Officer Memu below.
"Police Department, it is indeed the same as two years ago. The dust on both sides of the beam is very clear, and there are no traces of contact at all."
"And the center part of the beam..."
As soon as he said this, Forensic Officer Demi suddenly felt a chill coming from his arms.
At this moment, it seemed as if a disgusting evil passed through his body, which made Demi tremble with shock in his arm that was supporting the beam.
Without his arms to support him, Demi immediately lost his balance and fell from the ten-meter-high beam.
"ah--"
"Hello!"
Megure, Mouri, and Conan who happened to be standing in the training room were shocked.
Fortunately, Demi had protective measures. A rope tied around his waist saved his life and that of the people below.
"Hurry up and pull him up!"
Under the command of Officer Megure, the policeman above the skylight finally dragged Demi back.
Demi, who had survived the disaster, was so frightened that he collapsed on the floor, breathing heavily, completely unable to understand the unnatural trembling of his arms just now.
Because this is not the first time that my body has made such a mistake at a murder scene.
...
Qin Zhibo, on his side, had followed "Xiao Hei"'s position to the practice room.
In Qin Zhibo's field of vision just now, "Xiao Hei" undoubtedly tied Abbot Tianyong's body to the beam, and then climbed out through the skylight that was level with the beam.
Next, "Xiao Hei" ran to the small wooden window under the practice room and swung something hard to hit the small window.
[End of scene reenactment]
Qin Zhibo finally watched the entire criminal process of "Xiao Hei" while fast forwarding.
There is no doubt that "Xiao Hei" is a human being.
Although it seems that he is floating in the air, in fact, it is just that he did not see the medium that allowed "Little Black" to float in the air in his reenactment.
As for what this medium is, Qin Zhibo already has the answer in his mind.
Not only that, Qin Zhibo also knows where the evidence is now.
But who is the murderer?
As before, even if Qin Zhibo knew where the evidence was, the police would run out of time trying to identify the fingerprints on the evidence.
And I need answers now!
At this moment, a string of women's cries reached Qin Zhibo's ears.
When I came to the corridor, I saw that a lady named Juno was lying on the body of Abbot Tianyong and crying bitterly.
According to the introduction by monks Kuan Nian and Mu Nian next to them, this Ms. Kikuno is the granddaughter of Abbot Tianyong, and she used to come to the temple to relax and play.
It's just that since Tadonna's death two years ago, Ms. Kikuno, who had always had a good relationship with Chunian, has never come to Shanniji Temple anymore, and she is also engaged to the heir of a large temple in Tokyo.
Hearing this, Qin Zhibo, who was standing behind, suddenly said: "Excuse me, what is the real name of monk Zhongnian?"
Kuan Nian and Mu Nian were startled by Qin Zhibo's sudden question, but they still remembered it after a few seconds of recall.
"I remember..."
"It seems to be called Takahashi, Liyi..."
Looking at everyone present, the name on a bald head caught Qin Zhibo's attention.
