The life and death of Souha Tsunori, who fell to the ground, was uncertain. The policeman next to him immediately stepped forward to check the situation.
Fortunately, Mr. Souha's breath was still alive, and Kudo Shinichi did not become a murderer.
However, just now when Kudo Shinichi kicked Souha Tatsutoku in the head, he proudly said "score", which made Qin Zhibo vaguely feel that Kudo Shinichi's original intention of playing football was not to shoot.
If this is the case, it seems that the skill: Firearms (soccer) is not too much...
And as Shuyu Zunde subdued the law, Qin Zhibo's ears also heard a rumbling sound.
[Congratulations on completing the side mission]
[Task settlement rating: C++]
[Acquire 200 general skill proficiency]
[Get 100 social credits]
[Rating reward: 70 general skill proficiency]
The rewards for side missions are not generous, and until now, Qin Zhibo didn't know that there was a mission settlement rating reward.
Although I don’t know the specific criteria for task rating, I guess it is related to the time it takes to complete the task, whether there is assistance from others, and the difficulty of the case.
For example, if the person who named the murderer this time is the high school detective, his score will definitely be reduced.
Although Qin Zhibo found the most important evidence, sending the evidence for forensics will definitely cause the task to time out.
There is also the task completion time. The one-hour task time calculated by the system finally has more than three minutes left. Qin Zhibo almost completed the task in a hurry.
What makes Qin Zhibo a little confused is that in his own sense of time, less than half an hour should have passed from the discovery of the body to the murder of the murderer.
Why does the system's task time calculation show that nearly an hour has passed?
There were other guests, and the police also thought that one hour had passed.
Did I get the time wrong?
Just when Qin Zhibo was secretly wondering about his chaotic sense of time, Kudo Shinichi and Officer Megure were talking to each other next to him.
"Brother Kudo, it's thanks to you that I was able to solve the case so quickly this time!"
Kudo Shinichi smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Actually, the evidence I gave you was found by Mr. Qin first, and the credit for solving this case should also go to Mr. Qin."
"Oh, I see..."
Kudo Shinichi's words made Megure stunned, and he looked at Qin Zhibo with some doubts.
In Mumu's understanding, although Qin Zhibo is qualified enough to be his younger brother, he is not qualified enough to compete with his strongest younger brother Kudo Shinichi in terms of reasoning ability.
But I never expected that it would be Brother Qin who was the first to discover the truth this time.
At this time, Mao Lilan came over from behind, with a slightly complaining look in her eyes, and reminded: "Xinyi, it's getting late."
After Xiaolan's reminder, Xinyi remembered that he and Xiaolan had an important date tomorrow and should go back to rest early now.
If it affects tomorrow's date, my childhood sweetheart's fist is not a vegetarian.
"Officer Memu, if you want to record a statement, please wait until next time. I'll leave first."
"Oh, do you need me to ask my subordinates to take you two back?"
"No, thanks."
"Goodbye, Officer Megure."
Mao Lilan bowed to Officer Megure before leaving, and then followed Kudo Shinichi to the back door of the mansion where no reporters were waiting.
As for the "next time" mentioned by Shinichi Kudo, he means that when the next case occurs, he will record a confession along with the last case. This will save him a trip to the Metropolitan Police Department.
Anyway, based on Megure's understanding of Kudo, this next time shouldn't be too far away.
After watching Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan leave, Qin Zhibo did not have this special treatment and had to stay here to record a confession before leaving.
"Then please ask Brother Qin to tell me the detailed process of the crime later."
"To be honest, Brother Kudo's reasoning just now was a bit hasty, and I haven't quite figured out some details yet."
At this time, the policeman helped Souha Tatsutoku, who had a bandage on his head, to go out. As Souha Tatsutoku walked out, he defended himself to the policeman beside him.
"Although I killed the man, the hole on his face was definitely not caused by me!"
"I could have sworn it!"
Hearing this, Officer Memu, who had a strong sense of justice, stepped forward angrily and reprimanded: "No matter what the reason is, you have deprived a person of his life!"
"And since you are the murderer, how could you not have done that cruel method?"
"Right? Brother Qin?"
Mu Mu looked back and saw that Qin Zhibo, who was standing next to him just now, suddenly disappeared.
...
At this time, Qin Zhibo was alone, thinking about everything he had just seen in [Scene Replay].
After Souha Tsuntoku's reminder just now, Qin Zhibo suddenly thought of a detail that he had missed.
Who cut off the cheek flesh on the face of the deceased Tetsu Yamazaki?
Since the murderer was Souha Tsuntoku, who had already confessed his crime, everyone naturally believed that it was Souha Tsuntoku who had committed such a cruel act.
But Qin Zhibo, who had seen all the actions of "Blackie" at the murder scene, knew that after Souha Tatsunoku stabbed Yamazaki Tetsu in the heart with a knife, he turned around and ran away without any other unnecessary actions.
If there is no omission in [Scene Reenactment], it means that the murderer and the person who cut off the cheek flesh of the deceased are two people!
Unknowingly, Qin Zhibo walked to the door of the kitchen. Two young and beautiful maids who looked almost identical were standing in the corridor outside the kitchen talking.
Judging from the information displayed above their heads, one of the two maid ladies is called Shimogasa Honami, and the other is called Shimogasa Minaho.
Twin maids?
"Did someone die in that drawing room? Did the books in the drawing room become unlucky as a result?"
"Yes, yes, it's a pity that Butler Matsumoto still likes those books..."
Hearing what the maid said, Qin Zhibo suddenly remembered the strange French book he was investigating at the crime scene, so he stood up and interrupted the conversation between the two maids, and asked: "What are the origins of those books in the reception room?"
?”
Regarding Qin Zhibo's sudden appearance, the two maids were a little panicked, but they still replied in unison: "Because the master doesn't like reading and wants to pretend to be knowledgeable in front of outsiders, he asked Butler Matsumoto to purchase it."
After saying this, the twin maids ran away as if they were running away.
As the twin maids left, Qin Zhibo's eyes fell on the kitchen at the end of the corridor.
In the kitchen sink, napkins, plates, and cutlery were soaked in the slightly turbid water.
What surprised Qin Zhibo even more was that there was a light spot on the dinner plate, which was an investigation point that he had missed.
【Survey√】
[Someone seems to have just held a dinner party here. Only ingredients that are extremely rare on the market can match such a sense of ceremony]
At this moment, a voice from behind interrupted Qin Zhibo's thinking.
"This gentleman..."
"Are you lost?"
Looking back, the housekeeper Matsumoto of the mansion was standing at the door, his eyes emitting a frightening light.
