Conan's Almighty Extraction

"Meicai, open the door, open the door, Mei Cai!"

Following the voice of Qingdao Quandai, everyone came to the bathroom of the house, and found that Qingdao Quandai was holding the doorknob with one hand, knocking desperately on the glass door of the bathroom, and at the same time, he kept calling his sister's name .

What shocked everyone even more was that the inner edge of the door was covered with tape, and the unknown words [Farewell] were taped in the middle.

"Could it be that it was locked from the inside?"

Seeing such a scene, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Kogoro Mouri, who felt something was wrong, hurriedly told Qingdao Quandai: "Miss Quandai, quickly bring the spare key."

"The door to the bathroom doesn't have a lock at all. The reason why it can't be opened is probably because it's stuck with the tape inside."

Qingdao Quandai shook his head, and asked eagerly: "Mr. Mao Li, please join me in knocking the door open."

"Okay, let's help you."

Mori Kogoro did not refuse, walked to the door of the room with Shiraiwa Maha, and slammed the bathroom door open, and the scene inside immediately fell into everyone's eyes.

In the small bathroom, Qingdao Meicai, who was wearing an orange coat, was lying on the side of the bathtub, holding a blood-stained utility knife in one hand, and stretching her other arm into the bathtub full of water, dyeing the inside a blood red .

Mori Kogoro went over to check the situation and found that Qingdao Meicai had already lost signs of life. At the same time, he found several scars cut with a utility knife on the wrist of the arm that reached into the bathtub.

"Miss of the whole generation, I am very sorry that your sister has already passed away."

Mori Kogoro told Qingdao Quandai the sad news with a sad face, and then asked Xiaolan to call the police.

"How did this happen? Mei Cai, woo woo woo"

After learning the sad news of her sister's death, Qingdao Quandai burst into tears. After reporting to the police, Xiaolan hurried over to comfort her and took her to another room to rest.

Before the police arrived, Baiyan Mayu and the others did not leave the bathroom, but immediately began to investigate the scene of the crime.

There was no sign of struggle at the scene. The bathroom window and exhaust fan, like the bathroom door, were sealed tightly with tape, so the possibility of outsiders being involved was ruled out. From this point of view, it was indeed a normal suicide event.

However, on the ground next to the bathtub, Shiraiwa Maha found two bottles of bathroom cleaners with the lids opened. The two different cleaners were all poured on the ground and mixed with each other.

Judging from the closed doors and windows, it seems that Qingdao Meicai's purpose was to prepare to commit suicide by using the poisonous gas produced by the chemical reaction. It may be that she found no effect, so she chose to cut her wrists to end her life.

Suddenly, Bai Yanzhenyu's eyes were fixed, because he found that on the right edge of the bathtub next to Qingdao Meicai's body, the blood was very neat, as if it was covered by something when the blood splashed out, which was completely different from the other side , Suspicion suddenly arose in my heart.

After inspecting the scene, Conan leaned over to Shirayan Maha and reminded him in a low voice, "Brother Maha, this is not a suicide, but a murder in a secret room."

Conan's reminder affirmed the suspicion in Baiyan Maha's heart, and immediately asked: "Conan, did you find anything?"

"Well, there are two doubts. First, the bloodstains in that place are too neat. Second, there are cross marks on Miss Mei Cai's wrist."

Conan stroked his chin, and spoke out the doubts he found, looking at the room where Xiaolan and Qingdao Quandai were in with flickering eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

Not long after, the police arrived at the scene, and the team leader was still a model worker from the Megure Police Department. However, among the entourage, there was another policeman who often appeared in the original book—Takagi She.

"The deceased was named Qingdao Meicai, 24 years old. The cause of death was a knife wound on the left wrist, which resulted in blood loss caused by a ruptured artery."

After some on-site inspections, the police found out the cause of Qingdao Meicai's death, and then asked Shiraiwa Maha and others who discovered the scene for the first time about the situation at that time.

"Megure Police Department, we came back with Ms. Quan Dai to pick up her sister to go to the concert. When we were looking for Ms. Mei Cai, we found that something was wrong in the bathroom, so we broke open the door and rushed in. Then we called the police."

After Mori Kogoro told the Megure police department about the situation at that time, the Megure police department glanced around in the bathroom, pointed to the tape on the door and window and asked: "Brother Mouri, what you said is not right, it refers to these things. Tape?"

"Yes, these tapes filled the gaps from the inside of the bathroom, turning the bathroom into a complete secret room, so I think this is definitely a suicide." Mori Kogoro nodded and expressed his judgment at the same time .

The Mumu Police Department touched his chin, and said in bewilderment: "But, based on common sense, why would a person who committed suicide by cutting his wrists completely seal off the scene?"

"Hehe, Megure Police Department, I can answer this question."

Mori Kogoro smiled confidently, picked up the evidence bag containing the bottle of bathroom cleaning agent from the side, and reasoned solemnly: "I think the deceased may have thought that mixing hydrochloric acid and acidic cleaning agent can produce poisonous hydrochloric acid gas. That's why she sealed it up and prepared to kill herself with hydrochloric acid gas."

"However, the deceased did not know the relevant knowledge and the power of hydrochloric acid gas, so after failing, he finally chose to cut his wrist and put his arm in hot water, so that he would die from excessive blood loss."

Speaking of this, Mori Kogoro took out a shopping receipt from a convenience store and explained: "This is a shopping receipt that fell on the sofa in the living room. These two bottles of bathroom cleaner and adhesive tape were bought by Miss Mei Cai last night. Convincing evidence of her hastily preparing to commit suicide."

"Indeed, the unused tape was also found in the bathtub. If Miss Mei Cai did all this in a hurry, then it's understandable that she didn't take this into consideration."

The seemingly reasonable reasoning was approved by the Megure Police Department, and Takagi was arranged to go to the convenience store for verification.

The police officer who was in charge of fingerprinting at the scene came over and reported: "Mumu Police Department, the fingerprints on the tape have been checked, and only Ms. Mei Cai is alone. Near the incision of each piece of tape, the thumbs and index fingers of her hands can be seen. fingerprint."

"I see. It seems that the [Farewell] posted on it is Miss Mei Cai's last words to bid farewell to this world."

The results of the fingerprint survey verified Kogoro Mori's reasoning. Just when the Megure Police Department was preparing to characterize the case as a suicide, Maha Shiraiwa, who had been looking for clues with Conan, suddenly raised an objection.

"Mumu Police Department, this is a homicide!"
