In the corridor of the newly ordained monk, Conan was quietly following Qin Zhibo.
In fact, the first time he entered the bathroom, Conan saw the electric shaver casually abandoned on the ground and guessed what was going on.
Shinde Yoshiteru's death should have been caused by electric shock. In other words, the person who pushed the main switch up was at least the objective murderer of Shinde Yoshiteru.
At that time, only Qin Zhibo and Bao Benguang went to restart the switch.
Let’s not talk about capital preservation for now, but if it was Qin Zhibo, with his observation and reasoning abilities, he should have judged that the person who pushed the main switch was equivalent to the murderer who pulled the trigger.
Looking at Qin Zhibo with a solemn expression in the corridor, Conan had a bad feeling in his heart.
Could it be
Qin Zhibo noticed Conan following behind him, but did not pay attention. After all, he wanted to solve the case as quickly as possible and get a higher task rating.
According to previous experience, if you can solve the case before Officer Megure arrives, you can get a pretty good mission rating.
So now Qin Zhibo is equivalent to racing against time.
No! It’s a race against the speed of Officer Megure’s appearance at the scene.
So in order to save time, Qin Zhibo walked to the dining room while carefully recalling everyone's positions and things at hand when the power went out.
First of all, it is impossible for the Maori family to kill someone. Although it is possible based on the law of cause and effect, it is impossible in terms of actual actions.
It should be impossible for Aso to become a real person, but Qin Zhibo still believes in the character of his "little brother".
All that's left is a new family.
Qin Zhibo remembered that when he walked out of the dining room with Bao Benguang, he took one last look to see if anyone else in the dining room was acting suspiciously.
Tomaki Shinde was hugged by Mao Lilan for some reason. Unless it was a fake arm, Tomaki Shinde couldn't move at all.
There was also Yoko Shinde who was standing in the corridor talking on the phone. She was still on the phone when the power went out.
Finally, there was the old lady's new trip. She showed up in the dining room and then left, saying she was going back to her room, but no one knew where she went.
It seems that the biggest suspect is indeed
Qin Zhibo's inner guess had just started to get a little bit biased when he glanced at the investigation point on the phone at the door of the dining room.
【Survey√】
[A combined phone]
Qin Zhibo picked up the phone. As expected, there was no connection line between the phone's receiver and the main unit. The receiver could be held within a certain range and normal calls could be made.
If it was a call like this, Yoko Shinde who had been calling would have no alibi.
Moreover, the investigation point appeared on the phone, and it was easy to figure out who the murderer was.
But to find the key evidence, more investigation points are needed.
Qin Zhibo put down the phone and continued to look for other evidence.
At the corner of the corridor, Conan was still following Qin Zhibo.
At the door of the dining room, Conan saw Qin Zhibo pick up the phone on the cabinet, hesitate for a while and then put it down.
Why did he take the phone? Xiaolan had already called the police.
Suddenly, Conan had an idea and thought of a possibility.
Is he going to call his friend and tell him that he killed someone unconsciously today?
Human beings are animals that need to vent their emotions.
When a person encounters a negative emotion that cannot be digested by himself, he will often talk to his friends and seek advice.
Qin Zhibo may have realized that his behavior had killed a living person, so he wanted to call a friend to talk about it, and then ask himself what to do.
Although it was unconscious, it was a human life after all.
It is impossible for someone as strong as Qin Zhibo to face this matter completely indifferently.
Thinking of this, Conan looked at Qin Zhibo with a look of pity.
Qin Zhibo finally chose to put down the phone, indicating that even to close friends, Qin Zhibo thought this was something he was ashamed to talk about.
But after putting down the phone, where can Qin Zhibo go?
The worried Conan continued to follow Qin Zhibo.
While everyone except Conan was in the bathroom, Qin Zhibo searched for investigation points in various rooms next to the corridor.
Since there is no prompt to "re-enact the scene", it means that there is still an investigation point, and it should be in this home.
Qin Zhibo can probably guess what this investigation point might be.
Yoko Shinde wants to use the phone to prove her alibi, so the power outage must be precisely timed when she is on the phone.
This requires a power outage device with precise timing function.
Shinde Yoko currently has no chance to deal with the scheduled power outage device, so Qin Zhibo guessed that the device was placed near the socket in a certain room.
The principle of a power outage device is generally to create a short circuit. If you want to create a short circuit, you must ensure that the device is plugged into the socket.
After pushing open the door to one room after another, and seeing no investigation point near the socket, Qin Zhibo immediately closed the door and continued to look for the next room.
Until he was near a socket in an inconspicuous room, Qin Zhibo saw the light of the investigation point flashing on a square digital clock placed on the cabinet.
【Survey√】
[Much heavier than an ordinary digital clock, and the structure inside seems unusual. 】
Qin Zhibo glanced at the socket and found that the power cord of the digital clock was plugged into the socket.
Next, as long as this evidence is brought to Shinde Yoko, she can plead guilty.
Qin Zhibo was thinking as he bent down to pull out the simple plug consisting of two wires on the socket.
In order to avoid being discovered, Conan entered the room a little late.
As soon as he entered the room, Conan saw Qin Zhibo reaching for the copper wire on the socket.
"Wait a moment!"
In desperation, Conan quickly shouted out.
But Qin Zhibo snapped, grabbed the insulated part, and pulled the wire out of the socket.
Seeing Qin Zhibo safe and sound, Conan was dumbfounded.
Because when he saw Qin Zhibo reaching for the socket, Conan immediately thought that Qin Zhibo was too guilty and self-blame, so he wanted to punish himself by touching the switch.
Although 110V may not electrocute people instantly, it is no joke.
Human muscles will spasm and contract after the current is passed through, and the hand holding the wire will become tighter and tighter. It is impossible to loosen it with your own strength.
Seeing Qin Zhibo holding the digital clock on the cabinet in his arms with a nonchalant expression, Conan asked with a puzzled expression: "Aren't you the one who turned on the switch?"
Qin Zhibo shook his head: "Of course it's not me, it's the maid."
After hearing Qin Zhibo's answer, Conan's half-moon eyes were filled with shame.
