Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 26 Outrageous confession method

A murder occurred on the roller coaster at Tropical Amusement Park.

Police from the Search Division are examining the situation at the scene.

Kudo Shinichi is discussing the case with Officer Megure.

Gin was waiting very impatiently. He looked at Kudo Shinichi and Officer Megure with cold eyes and said, "Hey, hurry up and solve the case. We don't have time to play detective games with you here!"

Kudo Shinichi's body stiffened, and his heart suddenly palpitated.

The look in Gin's eyes made Kudo Shinichi feel as if he had killed many people as if nothing had happened.

Faced with Gin's urging, Officer Megure began to explain to Gin.

Police officer Chiba searched the bag of Aiko, the girlfriend of the murdered man Kishida, and found a bloody blade wrapped in cloth.

Aiko panicked when she saw the knife and defended herself: "I have never seen that thing before!"

The companion traveling with the couple, Xiaotong, asked with an incredulous expression: "Aiko, why did you do this? I thought you and Kishida had a good relationship."

"No, I didn't do it! You believe me, it wasn't me!"

Aiko is now speechless and has already shed tears of anxiety.

Vodka took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Hey, the murderer is that woman, let us go quickly, officer!"

But Gin showed a meaningful smile.

This kind of despicable blaming is really low-level.

Since the murder weapon was found in Aiko's bag, Officer Megure decided to take away the suspect, Aiko.

Seeing that the police had identified the prisoner, Gin and Vodka wanted to leave.

But Officer Megure said: "Just in case, everyone riding on that roller coaster needs to confirm their identity. Is that okay?"

Officer Megure stepped closer to Gin and Vodka.

Killers like Gin and Vodka have no identity.

It only takes one inspection to reveal a problem.

Gin and Vodka put their hands into their pockets at the same time, ready to take out their guns and shoot.

Kudo Shinichi stopped Officer Megure: "Please wait a moment, Officer Megure, the murderer is not her. The murderer who killed the victim Mr. Kishida on the roller coaster is you!"

Kudo Shinichi stretched out his finger and pointed at Xiaotong who initially questioned Aiko.

The prisoner identified by Kudo Shinichi surprised everyone around him. After all, the murder weapon was found.

After Xiaotong was stunned for a moment, she hurriedly defended: "What nonsense are you talking about! You also saw that the police found a knife in Aiko's bag!"

Kudo Shinichi explained calmly: "It is impossible to cut off a human head with that kind of knife, and it is even less possible with the strength of a woman. And if she is the real murderer, then she should have many opportunities to throw away the murder weapon. There is no need to wrap it in cloth and hide it in the bag. In order to blame the crime on Miss Aiko, you put the knife in his bag beforehand."

Xiaotong was obviously a little panicked: "You, don't talk nonsense! There is a gap between me and the dead Kishida! How can I cut off his head? Besides, you just said that with the strength of a woman, You can’t cut off a human head!”

"It's true that you can't do it with a woman's strength, but you can do it with the speed of a roller coaster and a piano wire or a hoop."

Next, Kudo Shinichi began to recreate the process of committing the crime.

The method of committing the crime is to use the speed and power of the roller coaster.

First, before the safety lever is lowered, put something like a leather bag on your back and sit down, and then wait for the safety lever to lower.

Then, before committing the crime, you can loosen the leather bag on your back and get out of the safety lever easily.

Next, you just need to take out the prepared iron hoop or piano wire, install a barb on the end, then put your feet on the safety rod, stretch back, put the hoop around the victim's neck, and then hang the hook on the victim's neck. on track.

Finally, the speed and power of the roller coaster can be used to chop off the victim's head.

With this technique, only Xiaotong who has practiced gymnastics can perform this series of movements.

And before the roller coaster, Xiaotong had a pearl necklace hanging around her neck. After riding the roller coaster, the necklace disappeared.

Therefore, the murder weapon was a piano wire strung with pearls.

When Kudo Shinichi was reasoning.

Minato Kamiya, a member of the melon-eating crowd, came to the scene.

Because he saw a large number of police officers coming to the roller coaster, and Kudo Shinichi was also there, Kamiya Minatsuki thought with his buttocks that a murder had occurred.

At the same time, Gin and Vodka also spotted Kamiya Minatsuki, who was munching popcorn among the crowd while curiously poking his head into the scene.

Kamiya Minatsuki sent Gin a text message.

[Those who come to watch the show, don’t worry about me]

After Gin saw the text message, the corner of his mouth twitched.

This feeling of being looked at like a monkey, especially when the person looking at the monkey is Kamiya Minatsuki, is really unpleasant.

Kamiya Minazuki listened to Kando Shinichi's reasoning and agreed very much.

He is truly a detective.

All that remains is to find the murder weapon.

However, Kudo Shinichi's next words made Kamiya Minayuki's sense of identification with Kudo Shinichi disappear.

Kudo Shinichi pointed to the tears in the corner of Xiaotong's eyes and said: "The murderer knew that the victim was going to die, so he shed tears. In other words, the person who shed big tears when riding the roller coaster is the murderer, and the tears on your face are Identical proof, because when you cry while sitting on a roller coaster, your tears must be flowing in both directions!"

When Xiaotong heard Kudo Shinichi's reasoning, she knelt down, covered her face, cried bitterly, and admitted her guilt.

Kamiya Minayuki was dumbfounded.

What the hell is this? As long as you search for the murder weapon, you can end the case perfectly. What's the point of all this?

Can’t you cry while riding a roller coaster?

If some timid people or those who are prone to tears ride on a roller coaster and shed tears, are they all criminals?

What's even more outrageous is the prisoner Xiaotong.

Kudo Shinichi has reproduced all the reasoning techniques. The area where the murder weapon was thrown is only that area, and the police will find it sooner or later.

If you don't plead guilty at this time, do you think you admitted that you are the murderer just by shedding tears?

"As expected of the protagonist, his reasoning is up to the standard of a detective, but the way he makes the prisoner confess is too outrageous. Ordinary people like us can't learn it, so he slipped away."

After watching the movie, Kamiya Minazuki didn't want to be discovered by Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan, who knew him, so he left the scene directly.

Two hours later.

The police found the necklace used in the crime in the tunnel. The rope connecting the necklace was indeed a piano wire, and it was stained with blood.

By this time it was getting dark.

Mao Lilan, who realized later, was crying as she walked.

The headless corpse had a great impact on Mao Lilan's senses.

Seeing Kudo Shinichi's nonchalant look, Mao Lilan said dissatisfied: "You are really calm!"

Kudo Shinichi said with full of malice: "I'm often at crime scenes, so I'm used to seeing corpses that are cut into pieces."

Mao Lilan imagined it in her mind, and suddenly covered her face in fear: "You are too cold-blooded!"

Seeing that Mao Lilan was really frightened, Kudo Shinichi hurriedly comforted him: "Well, you'd better forget it quickly. This kind of thing is very common."

Mao Lilan pouted and said, "No!"

Just as Kudo Shinichi was thinking about how to comfort Mao Lilan, he suddenly saw vodka in his peripheral vision.

Kudo Shinichi felt that Gin and Vodka must be doing something bad if they were so eager to leave the scene, so Kudo Shinichi planned to follow them to find out.

"Sorry, Xiaolan, please go back first, I will catch up with you soon!"

Kudo Shinichi waved to Mao Lilan, and ran in the direction of vodka without waiting for Mao Lilan to answer.

Looking at Kudo Shinichi's leaving figure, Mao Lilan had an ominous premonition for no reason.

I had a premonition that I might never see Kudo Shinichi again.
