Seeing the flames above the shrine, villagers came from all directions and began to put out the fire.
Conan and Hattori Heiji did not turn into fire-fighting pioneers, but stood not far away and watched.
"Hattori, there seemed to be some noise in the warehouse just now, did you hear it?"
"Huh?" Hattori Heiji looked at Conan, "I didn't hear it. What was it?"
"It sounded like knocking on wood."
Hattori Heiji's eyes widened, knowing what this meant.
There were still living people in the warehouse just now!
Hattori Heiji suddenly turned his head towards the warehouse and suddenly saw Qin Zhibo walking out of the side of the warehouse.
The position where Qin Zhibo came out was a bit strange, which rekindled Hattori Heiji's hope and hurried forward.
"Uncle! Did you enter the warehouse just now?"
Qin Zhibo was shocked inside, but continued to pretend to be calm, "How is it possible? I'm not wearing fire-proof clothing, how could I get in?"
Conan and Hattori Heiji took a look at Qin Zhibo's brown trench coat. There was no trace of fire at all, so he must have never been in it.
"Is there really someone inside?"
Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth and looked at the warehouse with infinite regret in his heart.
Although the fire just now was very strong, if you know that someone is trapped inside, you must find a way to rescue the person no matter what.
But now, the thick smoke inside alone is enough to choke someone to death.
"hateful!"
Hattori Heiji clenched his fists angrily, grabbed the bucket from a passing villager, and joined the fire-fighting team.
In order to prevent his good friend from getting wet and rushing into the fire, Conan quickly followed behind.
Qin Zhibo, who was the instigator of this episode, quietly left and at the same time opened the phone he had just brought out from the fire scene.
This is…
Back at Shimabukuro Kimie's house, Qin Zhibo went straight to Shimabukuro Kimie's bedroom.
The tatami room was neatly kept, with almost no personal belongings placed in the huge room. It looked like an ordinary room.
But in Qin Zhibo's field of vision, there was an investigation point on the opposite wall.
【Topographic Survey√】
[There seems to be a hidden world behind it]
A terrain survey point indicates a hidden sliding door hidden in the wall.
Qin Zhibo stepped forward and opened the door. Inside was a small but exquisite workshop.
On one of the tables are arrow fletchings, crude arrowheads, arrow shafts, metal grinders, wooden signs, and hand saws.
It seems that the props and rewards related to the "Dugong Arrow" lottery are all made here.
On another table, there were things that Qin Zhibo was very familiar with.
Face model, silicone human skin mask, wig.
The human skin mask placed on one of the human face models is an old face with crisscrossed grooves, drooping feebly due to no support, but if you use some imagination, you can find that this is the face of Changshou Po.
Qin Zhibo was looking around when a voice suddenly came from behind.
"I didn't expect you to find me here, Mr. Detective."
Qin Zhibo looked back, and it was Shimabukuro Kime standing behind him.
At this time, Shimabukuro Kimie had just changed into the clothes of a longevity woman, and her knees, which were slightly red from sitting on her knees for a long time, were tied with leather straps.
Seeing the straps and the injured knee, Qin Zhibo immediately understood why Shimabukuro Kimie could disguise himself as a person twice as short as himself.
Shimabukuro Kimie showed a light smile, passed by Qin Zhibo, and walked into the workroom.
Her fingertips slid over the wooden signs and arrows on the table, and she stared at the items on the table, as if scenes of beautiful memories were floating before her eyes.
"When I was in college, I formed a film club with Saori, Hisumi, Naoko, and Rokuro. At that time, I was responsible for all the props and makeup used in filming movies."
"How about it? Isn't this thing I made very realistic?"
Shimabukuro Kime picked up an arrow from the table and asked Qin Zhibo with a smile.
Qin Zhibo was about to answer when he suddenly read a hint of emotion in Shimabukuro Kime's eyes.
She wants to commit suicide!
Soon enough, Shimabukuro Kimui raised the injured arrow and was about to stab his chest when Qin Zhibo stepped forward and grabbed his wrist.
Qin Zhibo twisted his hand, snatched the arrow from Shimabukuro Kimie's hand, and then forcibly dragged her away from the workshop full of dangerous goods.
"Miss Shimabukuro, why are you so eager to commit suicide?"
As Qin Zhibo spoke, he closed the sliding door of the workshop behind him again, "Do you want to fight all these crimes for the real murderer?"
After the words fell, Shimabukuro Kimie's body trembled suddenly, and the sadness in her eyes suddenly turned to surprise, her expression seemed to be asking "how do you know?"
Qin Zhibo smiled slightly, took out the phone he had just brought from the fire scene from his pocket, and explained: "Actually, until ten minutes ago, I thought this was a conspiracy between you and your father to murder someone."
"But after reading the content of this phone call, I figured out what happened."
"Actually, this case is not complicated at all. Your father Shimabukuro Keikazu first killed Saori Kadori, and then used this phone to invite Ebina Hisumi and Kuroe Naoko out one by one and kill them."
"The whole technique couldn't be more simple."
As Qin Zhibo said, there was no conspiracy in the whole case.
Whether in the Mermaid Forest or on the beach, Keikazu Shimabukuro always adopts a straightforward killing method.
Throw Ebina Sumi's body into the waterfall and hide it in the forest.
Naoko Kuroe was strangled to death and hung on a fishing net before being returned to the sea.
This was very easy for him, because no one would doubt a person who died in a shipwreck five years ago.
Listening to Qin Zhibo's statement, Shimabukuro Kime's face was extremely surprised.
Qin Zhibo actually even knew about his father's existence. Although there was a chase in the Mermaid Forest that night, the forest was pitch black that day, and since he was someone he had never met before, his identity should not have been discovered.
"Actually, in the entire case, only the last fire was planned by you, and the purpose should be to dispose of Saori Kadori's body."
While Qin Zhibo was talking, Shimabukuro Kime showed a faint smile, closed his eyes and shook his head.
"You're wrong about this, detective."
"Actually, I can't forgive them for killing my mother. It's just that my father saw through my heart and took action one step ahead."
"After the fire, the police will find that the teeth of the charred corpse in the fire are exactly the same as the dental mold I left in the dental clinic."
Shimabukuro Kimie's self-exposure reminded Qin Zhibo of what Shimabukuro said when they first met that he asked her to accompany him to the dentist four days before Saori disappeared.
As long as the doctor is actually Saori Kaori, and the insurance card is exchanged, the name of the owner of the dental mold can be changed.
This shows that from that moment on, Shimabukuro Kime had murderous intentions in his heart.
