Ke Xue's Kogoro

Chapter 148 Cracking Method
"It seems that it is indeed a secret room murder."

Conan also nodded and said: "There is no sign of entry or exit or destruction on the window side. The mystery now is how to make the secret room."

"Report the officer."

The forensic officer said to Mu Mu: "Officer Mu Mu, the deceased Su Fang Hongzi, the cause of death was stabbed in the throat by a dagger, bleeding profusely, and the murder weapon was on the bed where the deceased was lying. The time of death was around 4 o'clock in the morning."

Meguro said: "The one who can reach the west to kill people should be only one of the four people who live on the west side."

Kogoro said: "That's not necessarily the case. First of all, the masks of Xiao Buer around the deceased are all locked in the hall of masks. If you want to take them out, you must prepare the keys in advance."

Takagi said suspiciously: "Then you also suspect Ms. Hoonami and Mr. Aikawa Fuyuya who live with you on the east side, right?"

Takagi directly excluded the Maori family.

Kogoro smiled and said, "Brother Takagi, you are very enlightened."

Mu Mu asked puzzledly: "It doesn't make sense, you don't doubt the people who live on the west side, why would you doubt the people on the east side?"

Kogoro explained: "Brother, let me tell you a piece of information, the thing is like this..."

Mumu heard from Xiaogoro the embarrassment between Aichuan Fuyuya and Su Fang Hongzi, and felt that Xiaogoro's suspicion was very reasonable.

"Well, I'll go to the colleague in charge of that case and ask for the details."

Kogoro put his arms around Takagi and said, "Brother, then I will take my little brother to decipher the secret room murder method."

Standing by the bed, Takagi looked dazed and clueless.

Kogoro picked up the dagger, which was stained with a lot of blood.

Kogoro asked: "Brother Takagi, look at this dagger, what do you think?"

Takagi looked at it carefully, and then said not confidently: "Well, the handle of the dagger is also stained with blood, which shows that the murderer did not directly hold the dagger to commit the crime. And judging from the traces, it seems that the blood was blocked by something Bar."

Kogoro kept nodding his head, brother Takagi is improving very quickly.

Conan picked up a mask and said, "It should be this mask. This one has the most blood stains, and it's spread out."

Gao Mu also searched among the masks, and found several blood-stained masks one after another.Kogoro looked at the blood-stained mask over and over in his hand, and his investigative skills came into play immediately.

Kogoro overlapped several masks and said, "Look, if these masks are overlapped, and the dagger protrudes from the mask's mouth to stab the dead, then the state of blood spraying out should be in line with these bloodstains." .”

"But how is it possible to do this?"

Kogoro touched the eyes and mouth of the mask with his fingers, and felt that there were traces of friction and strangulation in these two places.But he couldn't think of any kind of killing method, so he provided this clue to Conan.

Conan's mind began to think rapidly like the Big Bang. Doors and windows, beds, masks, the dead and daggers, these things were quickly combined and separated in his mind, and finally he found the answer.

Conan said confidently: "It's the elastic band, the murderer used the elastic band!"

"Elastic?"

Conan said: "Yes, and the murderer can only be someone from the east side."

At this time, Mumu walked in: "Brother Maoli, there was indeed a case about Su Fang Hongzi five years ago. The servant who had been taking care of her ran into someone and then committed suicide. This person is indeed Lanchuan Dongya's mother."

"However, the person in charge of that case had already been transferred away, and the conviction was suicide. The details of the case were indeed unsatisfactory, but how can we be sure that it was Su Fanghong who asked the other party to take the blame?"

Megure said: "Moreover, the person who was killed at the time was the wife of Masaki Katagiri who lived in the West Guest Room. He is also very likely to kill someone."

"So that's the case. No wonder Su Fang Hongzi asked me to investigate the details of Masaki Katagiri's wife's death. It turned out that she was afraid of being exposed. Now it's even more suspicious."

Kogoro said affirmatively: "It's Aikawa Toya, we already have strong evidence that only people who live on the east side can commit crimes."

Soon, Takagi called Aikawa Touya to the scene of the crime.

Both Kogoro and Meguro put on an expression of seeing through the truth and grasping the chance of winning. They have done this kind of thing many times when they cooperated before.

"Mr. Lan Chuan, I can't see that you, a rock singer, can come up with such an ingenious secret room murder method. I admire you."

Kogoro and Meguro applauded together, but there was a sneer at the corner of their mouths.

Aikawa Touya is just a singer, just an ordinary person. He is a little panicked in his heart, but he is trying his best to pretend to be helpless.

"What do you mean? Are you saying that I am a prisoner? Ms. Su Fang is my mentor, and she took me in and raised me when I was in trouble. How could I kill her?"

Mu Mu said: "We have known for a long time that Su Fanghongzi arranged your mother's suicide that year. You did it for revenge, right?"

Aikawa Touya thought that he had an alibi, and immediately said: "The mask hall between the east and west guest rooms will be locked at 12 o'clock at night. How can I go from the east to the west to kill someone?"

Kogoro said: "Conan, you can instruct brother Takagi to restore the murder method, so that the murderer has nothing to say."

"it is good."

Conan quickly made some arrangements for Takagi, after which Takagi walked from the east side to behind the grille ventilation window facing Su Fang Hongzi's bed.

"I'm going to start."

Takagi got Conan's instructions, tied the dagger with an elastic band, and threw it in through the ventilation window.Then take out two elastic bands and pass them through the eye sockets and mouth of Xiao Buer's mask.

The position of the dagger was stuck in the mouth of the mask, and then the masks were continuously sent into the room one by one through the elastic band. When Takagi pulled the elastic band outside the door, all the masks were shrunk together.

Under the series of elastic bands, the mask looks like a centipede without feet, extending from the grille to the sky above the bed.And the dagger stuck in the mask's mouth was facing the dead man's neck.

Kogoro said: "This is only about 10 centimeters away from the throat of the deceased. You only need to hold a stick behind the mask, and the dagger will directly penetrate the neck of the deceased. Afterwards, just cut the elastic band, and the mask will be elastically collapsed." Fly, spread out."

Kogoro looked at the sweaty Aichuan Fuyuya and said, "Mr. Aichuan, this method can only be done by people who live on the east side. Because the location of the grille window can only be reached on the east side."
