Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 123: The Death of Botu: The Secret Hidden in the Notes
Seeing this, Conan walked over to his sister and pulled her clothes: "Sister Xue, let's reveal the truth together."
Then, Conan dragged her in front of Okiya Subaru and Amuro Toru. Kudo Yuki looked at Conan speechlessly: "It's enough to have you three, why do you have to drag me along?"
"Sister Xue, you don't want to slip away halfway and be a bystander, do you?"
Kudo Yuki paused as she was about to take a step forward. Conan continued to mutter, "You clearly already knew what happened, but you're still watching from the sidelines. After you've investigated the case for almost all the clues and then give someone a hint, do you want to let it go?"
Kudo Yuki turned around and looked at Conan with a smile: "So, you just dragged me over here to end the case quickly?"
"bingo."
Then, Kudo Yuki gave Conan a slap in the face.
Conan covered the bump on his head and cried out in pain: "Sister Xue, I poked you and you got angry out of shame."
Amuro Toru raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled softly. Kudo Yuki froze and held his forehead helplessly: "Isn't it enough for me to help?"
Seeing that his sister agreed, Conan pulled her, Subaru Okiya and Toru Amuro and walked in front of Officer Megure and Officer Takagi.
Inspector Megure listened to what Amuro Toru said and turned to look at the four people: "Are you talking about the murderer's method of hanging the victim?"
Amuro Toru nodded: "I think I understand."
The group came to the stage, and Inspector Megure listened to Amuro Toru's idea: "In short, put the rope around the iron bar with the spotlight, and tie the other end of the rope to Takagi sitting on the chair. But, can one person really hang someone up?"
Amuro Toru walked to the seat below the stage: "Of course."
After saying that, Toru Amuro did not move, but looked at Kudo Yuki: "Boss, then please help with the explanation."
Helpless, Kudo Yuki walked up to Officer Megure and Officer Takagi. Her clear eyes followed Amuro Toru's movements and she began to explain the murderer's modus operandi in detail.
"First, wrap the rope hanging from the stage into a loop as Toru Amuro demonstrated. Then, wrap the lower loop around the upper loop from your side, twice in total."
Kudo Yuki looked focused: "Tighten the rope loop at the bottom again. At the same time, like in the previous step, use your hands to pass the remaining rope below the rope loop through the middle of the rope loop at the bottom."
At this time, Amuro Toru skillfully pulled the rope backwards, and Kudo Yuki's eyes never left him. "Then pull one end of the big loop to the armrest of the auditorium seat about 2 meters below and hook it. Then pass the section of rope without the loop through the inside of the armrest of the auditorium seat and clip it, and then make the same rope loop as before."
Amuro Toru followed the steps and walked to the same row. Kudo Yuki's voice sounded again: "This time, the big loop and rope should be pulled to the armrest of the chair about 4 meters away. Hook it first. Then make a third rope loop and pass half of the rope through it."
Kudo Yuki's eyes kept moving as Amuro Toru moved. "Then just grab the big loop you just made, and this time pull it to the armrest of the chair about 8 meters away, hook it on the armrest, and then go back to the small rope loop you made the third time, and pull the extra rope."
After Amuro Toru finished the demonstration, he looked at Kudo Yuki with a smile and said, "Boss, thank you for your help."
Kudo Yuki rolled her eyes in annoyance and crossed her arms over her chest: "That's all for the explanation."
Toru Amuro looked at the crowd in the distance, and his eyes fell on Sonoko: "Can you please ask Miss Sonoko, who seems to have the least strength, to help me pull the rope?"
Suzuki Sonoko was a little surprised, but she still walked quickly to Amuro Toru and took the rope, with a hint of hesitation on her face: "Anyway, I can't pull it up by myself."
As she spoke, Suzuki Sonoko began to pull the rope hard, and Officer Takagi was seen slowly moving upwards as the rope was pulled.
Suzuki Sonoko and Inspector Megure both widened their eyes in shock, their mouths slightly opened, and their faces were filled with disbelief. Suzuki Sonoko pulled for a while, and then stopped pulling the rope when she ran out of strength. "Why?"
Inspector Megure was also puzzled and looked at Amuro Toru anxiously: "What on earth is going on?"
Amuro Toru smiled confidently, revealing his white teeth, his eyes full of wisdom: "It's the principle of the pulley, you are right."
Subaru Okiya also walked to the bottom of the stage and pushed up his glasses. "That's right. The small loop made in the middle of the rope can play the role of a pulley, so each time a pulley is added, the rope can be pulled with 2 times, 4 times, and 8 times the force respectively.
After all, this is not actually a pulley but a rope loop, so under the influence of friction, the pulling force will not be as large as 8 times, but if a light and smooth rope is used, even Miss Sonoko can pull up Officer Takagi. "
Amuro Toru put one hand handsomely into his trouser pocket, his posture straight: "In other words, the murderer does not need any accomplices, just one person can hang Mr. Hatori."
Subaru Okiya then added: "Also, this knot is called the native knot, and it is a rope tying method used by freight operators to secure cargo in trucks.
The most suspicious person who hanged Mr. Hatano is Mr. Hatano's agent, Ms. Mado Kanae, who claimed to have worked at a freight company when she was young."
Everyone's eyes instantly turned to Kanae Madoka, while Yuki Kudo looked at Ikan Fuse who was next to Kanae Madoka. Her smile was meaningful, as if she knew everything.
Inspector Megure frowned and asked the question in his mind: "The person is hung up, but how to tie the rope to the audience seats?"
Amuro Toru looked at Kudo Yuki with a confident smile, and then demonstrated as he spoke: "This is very simple. After hanging the person up, tie one end of the rope to the audience seat nearby, temporarily fix it, and drill the wire into this position of the hanging rope.
Just use the wire to secure the hanging rope, then untie the excess part of the rope and tie it back to the audience seats, and finally pull out the wire.
This native knot has an advantage, that is, no knot is needed at any part, so it is very easy to dismantle, but if it is a brand new rope, there will be traces of this knot being tied. "
Kudo Yuki continued, "So after the murderer tied the ropes to the audience seats again, he used the utility knife in the toolbox to cut off the excess ropes, tied the ropes into a bundle, and placed it on the side of the stage with the toolbox."
Upon hearing this, Bushi Yikan hastily defended Kanae Madoka, with beads of sweat on his forehead and a panicked look on his face: "Even if she used to work in the freight industry, we can't conclude that she is the murderer based on this alone."
Conan then stepped forward and revealed the answer directly: "It depends on the size of the feet."
He demonstrated skillfully with a rope: "People in the freight industry usually wrap the ropes together like this to make a bundle. The inner diameter of the rope is roughly equivalent to the size of the rope tying person's foot.
Because the length from a person's elbow to wrist is the size of that person's feet, and the rope left at the scene was also tied to the same size as Xiaolan's feet. So we thought that the rope might have been tied by the petite agent. "
Hirokazu Kajitani said with curiosity: "I see, so after 17 years, the love that the beautiful agent had for Hatori has turned into hatred, right?"
Bushi Yikang immediately retorted: "Hey, don't talk nonsense. It's not confirmed that she did it, right?"
Conan's childish voice sounded: "The pupils are dilated."
The three people who were arguing fiercely heard Conan's voice and looked at him in confusion. Conan murmured softly: "Since he is the agent, he should have noticed it.
Mr. Botu wore a pupil dilator to make his eyes look bigger and brighter. After comparing the photo on Mr. Botu's driver's license with the photo taken by the magazine reporter today, even I can see that one of the pupil dilators is stuck on your back, Miss Agent."
After saying that, Kanae Madoka subconsciously turned her head to look at her back. Officer Megure asked, "Can I take a look?"
Kanae Madoka turned pale and cooperated. Officer Megure carefully removed the pupil dilator and said, "It must have fallen on your clothes when he was hung up. Now we have irrefutable evidence. The only thing left is to go to the police station and talk about it."
Bushi Yikang looked incredulous: "Wait a minute, did you really do this? You have been supporting him for 17 years, why do you have to kill him now? Please answer me."
Kudo Yuki and Amuro Toru walked to the stage door at this time. Amuro Toru whispered softly: "No matter how much you ask her, she can't answer you. Why? Because she didn't kill Mr. Hatto at all."
After hearing this, Kanae Madoka showed a surprised expression on her face, and Officer Megure was puzzled: "What does this mean?"
Amuro Toru analyzed: "As for the other pupil dilating piece, guess where it is? It is glued to the back of the seat cushion of the folding chair placed on the side of the stage."
Kudo Yuki interjected, "That is to say, the chair was originally lying at the feet of the hung head of the household. Let me explain a little more about the baseball with the kite string tied to it.
The baseball was made by tying the other end of the kite string to the front end of the rope, throwing the ball out to make the kite string pass over the iron bars on the ceiling, and then pulling the kite string to make the rope go around the iron bars as well.
Officer Takagi stood on the stage, frowning and muttering, "Please forgive me for being rude, but I don't think Miss Madoka has the ability to throw the ball. But if it was Mr. Hatori who was a good baseball club player in high school, it would be a different story."
Amuro Toru continued to explain: "Add to that the handwritten note in Mr. Hatano's breast pocket, and it should be very clear."
Inspector Megure was a little surprised: "Could it be him?"
Amuro Toru raised his lips confidently and responded affirmatively: "Yes, he hanged himself. So he disguised it all as a homicide."
Hirokazu Kajitani couldn't help but ask, "Hey, why did you hide his suicide? What really happened 17 years ago?"
Enjo Kanae just kept silent and lowered her head, while Bushi Yikan hesitated to speak, looking extremely conflicted: "Could it be that you are still brooding over what we talked about before..."
Inspector Megure's eyes quickly turned to Bushi Yikang: "What is that incident?"
After thinking for a while, Bushi Yikang finally decided to tell the truth. He slowly said, "In fact, 17 years ago, she was pregnant with Botu's child. At that time, Botu had just debuted and claimed that he was doing it for the unborn child. He locked himself in the recording studio and kept composing music. He stayed up late for days and days, and we were worried that he would die young.
Miss Yuancheng, who came to stop him, fainted in front of the recording studio and lost the baby in her belly, so Miss Yuancheng asked me in the hospital to keep it a secret and not tell Botu about it.
Subaru Okiya expressed his own opinion: "ASACA was a song I made for my unborn child at that time. That's why I never wrote the lyrics for it, and it has been shelved for 17 years.
After Botu learned what happened, he felt very guilty, so he wrote lyrics for the child and prepared to release it as a new song. However, he couldn't write the lyrics, so he could only say sorry and choose to die?
Officer Megure looked at Kanae Madoka, puzzled: "Why did you have to disguise this as homicide?"
Yuancheng Kanae looked lonely, her eyes full of pain and helplessness: "He actually chose to commit suicide because of his ex-girlfriend's child. How can I face his family if they know about this?
That's why I took the phone with the message he sent before his death, which said goodbye, out of his pocket and hung him up high. "After saying that, she couldn't hold it in any longer and squatted on the ground and burst into tears.
Hirokazu Kajitani turned and walked away, still muttering: "Even if he dies, he wants to make a woman cry. What a stupid man."
Kanae Madoka looked at Hirokazu Kajitani with pleading eyes: "I beg you, please don't write this into a report."
Hirokazu Kajitani paused and was silent for a while: "I have been following the news about Bosu for several years and have been trying hard to find reporting materials, but I didn't expect that the big news I finally dug up would be a big scandal about Bosu.
I always thought I knew Poland better than anyone else, and I wouldn’t write about it even if you begged me to, because rock musicians and the Splash Festival don’t fit in at all.”
After saying that, Kajitani Hirokazu left without looking back. After Madoka Kanae followed Officer Megure and left, everyone came to the hall.
Vermouth, with the face of Azusa Enomoto, asked curiously: "But the result is still not clear. Why does ASACA's CA use CA?"
Bushi Yikang patiently explained to everyone: "I heard this from Botu before. He stayed up all night at Cafe Chao the next day and learned about the pregnancy, so if it was a daughter, she would be named Chao Xiang. If we want to express it in romanization, we can take the CA in CAFE (coffee) and write it as ASACA."
Vermouth responded: "That's right, I understand."
Amuro Toru walked up to Bushi Yikang, his eyes sharp, "However, as his best friend, you even knew about this. I didn't expect you to go against your usual behavior and support him to quit the music industry. Could it be that you already knew about the incident with the backup band member who was arrested for drug possession just now?"
Bushi Yikang's eyes dodged: "No, that's not the case, I just..."
Vermouth glanced at Amuro Toru and said, "Oh, you really are worthy of being called a man with a sharp hearing."
"No, because the news flash has already spread on the Internet."
