Chapter 144: The Murderer Is You
The night receded, and the dawn seeped into the hazy mist of the sea, reflecting a faint splendour. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Soft knocks began to sound one after another.
According to Kyushu Hirosaku's instructions, the ship's staff calculated the sleeping time of the passengers, and brought them to the living room as early as possible.
Although the passengers were confused and sleepy, they heard that an active police officer had asked for such an action, so they could not say anything more, so they had to hastily pack up and keep up.
When they arrived in the living room, they found that there were two young people sitting next to Kyushu, and the three of them were talking softly, and there were faint bruises near their eyes, and it seemed that they had not slept all night.
Fortunately, Xiaolan was not called at such a time, otherwise I really don't know what to do when I see Kudo staying up late to handle the case.
Of course, due to someone's factors, Kyushu Hongsaku also didn't let the staff disturb Gray Yuan's rest beforehand, but she has always been used to getting up early in the morning, and when she heard the noise outside the corridor, she naturally opened the door and followed her to the living room, standing next to Kurosawa Gin, who was sleeping sweetly on the table, and looked at his side face expressionlessly.
Not too many people pay attention to this small detail, and even if they do, they are not in the mood to pay attention to it, they are more concerned about another thing.
I said...... Dig us out of the bed early in the morning, do you three young people have made any new discoveries?"
Isobei yawned lazily, found a table opposite Kyushu and sat down, couldn't help but cough lightly, woke the three of them out of their own world, and then asked the doubts in the hearts of all the passengers.
"Ah, you're here......" Kyushu hurriedly stood up, first bowed slightly at everyone, and then waved his hand without hesitation, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest." But in fact, we should have let everyone come at one or two o'clock in the morning, and it is already our limit to postpone until this time. ”
"You've been busy until now. Sharkaki frowned, "What is it that makes you work so hard?
"Team Leader Sharksaki, we are investigating the truth, and now the truth has been revealed, so I asked you to come here to expose who the real murderer is and bring him to justice in front of you people. ”
"The real murderer?" Mori Kogoro yawned in surprise, "Didn't you know the murderer from the beginning?"
"No, Xiejiang is not a murderer, he was just used by the murderer, in my opinion, the real murderer is someone else. Kudo raised a finger and aimed it at Maori as he shook slightly.
"Who else is that?" "Mori Kogoro was already sleepy, and he was so dazzled by Kudo's fingers that he wanted to lie on the bed to make up for his sleep, and the urging in his tone was also obvious.
"It's him!" Hattori Heiji also stood up at this time, but instead of being verbose like Kudo and Kyushu at the beginning, he directly stretched out his hand and pointed at a person.
The spirits of the people present were shocked, and they instinctively looked sideways, but they saw Maori Kogoro standing in place with his mouth wide open, and he was scared away by Hattori's finger, and finally couldn't help but point to himself in shock: "Me?"
"Uncle, get out of the way. ”
Maori Kogoro was stunned for a moment, turned sideways and took a few steps back, and at the same time involuntarily looked behind the place where he had just stood, and he was almost dumbfounded when he saw it.
"Whale Whale Whale - Mr. Whale Well? is he the murderer?"
There is a certain comic flavor in Maori Kogoro's demeanor and language, and the expressions of others, although not as exaggerated as him, are not much different.
"Murderer...... Is it me?" Whale Well, who was already standing on a shaky stand, turned white with a slap on the ground, "How, how is it possible, I won't commit a crime......"
"Your name is Heiji Hattori, right, are you making a mistake?" Samezaki also narrowed his eyes and looked incredulous, "Don't forget that Whalei has an alibi, he stayed with us in the engine room when the flag was burned on the deck." ”
Syllable!
As if it had been calculated, the sound of a firecracker coincidentally appeared at the stage when Izaki's voice had just fallen.
The faces of the crowd changed slightly.
"This is an experiment we just did. Kudo, one of the few people who still maintained his composure, smiled slightly, and replied clearly, "Because it takes a long time for you to sleep, we took the opportunity to rehearse all the murder methods during this stage, and the gunshot just now is also our masterpiece." ”
"How the hell did you do that?" Ebina looked at Kudo and then out the window, "If you ask a staff member to help shoot at this time, you won't be able to do it at all." ”
"I didn't need anyone's help, I did it myself, it took less than five minutes, and I was able to restore the scene with firecrackers, cigarettes and other props. ”
He unhurriedly told everyone present about the alibi method of relying on cigarettes to commit.
"I see......"
All in all, Kudo Shinichi is worthy of being a high school detective, speaking is like a speech, well-adjusted, and just by words, everyone can sort out this modus operandi, and even have a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
"The explosion of the oil tank also used this technique, and Whale Well deliberately made such an exaggerated action in order to make us turn our attention to him, and subconsciously help him make an alibi——"
Kudo wanted to finish the last sentence with a smile, but at this time, Whale Well, who had been silent, couldn't help it after all, and Tie Qing stared at Kudo Shinichi with a bleak face.
"That's enough! Don't lie to me again! I was called to the deck in an envelope, and I didn't see anyone turn back! Later, when I saw the letter on the deck, I thought that if I really saw someone I knew on the deck, I would probably die a terrible death, so I panicked, and it wasn't an ulterior motive!"
"That might be. ”
"This is not a hypothetical but a fact! And your reasoning about cigarettes is too far-fetched, and the success of that method only means that all of us have no alibi!
"That's not evidence that locks you, it's clues that lock you. ”
"What?"
"Because the person who can use cigarettes to make an alibi - he will only leave us when the cigarette is planted, and he must be with us the rest of the time so that we can give you an alibi - Kane can't be, Kameda can't be, then you are the only one of the three who has this possibility. ”
"This—Someone must be trying to frame me!"
"Framed? No, it's right that you want to frame someone else, because not only did you attack Kameda in the computer room, but it was also very likely that you found a toilet to stun Xiejiang inside, trying to blame him for Ye Sancai, and you played the role of a victim after the legal prosecution period but monopolized the stolen money and lived in style!"
"No, no, no, it's not like that...... There must be somewhere else...... Oh, by the way, on the deck, I was attacked with this detective on the deck, and I was shot in the arm, I didn't design it!
"Well, the first point will not be mentioned for the time being, and the second point ...... The wound on your arm was shot in advance by yourself holding a gun against it!"
"Nothing, nonsense! Don't forget that I didn't stop bleeding until I was shot, did you ever - the detective and the Kurosawa disguised as a crew member should have seen it, I didn't bleed at all before I was shot!"
"Simple. Clipping a tennis ball can compress the blood vessels, and if you release the tennis ball afterwards, the blood will naturally flow out as you like. And the tennis ball you used to commit the crime was also found by the people on the boat, and now it remains here in Kyushu as evidence from the police. ”
“......”
"You've taken great pains to mutilate your arm and look like you're being targeted, which is really a nuisance to you. Your acting skills were so seamless that we almost got tricked, but the blame was that you shot Kurosawa at the time, and both Kyushu and Kurosawa noticed that the bullet's track was unusual - of course, if you didn't, it might go against your original plan. ”
"I didn't ......," Whale roared, his fists starting to clench involuntarily.
