pure sky

After 10 minutes, Junko and Enomoto finally arrived at the villa area in the suburbs of Beijing.

"Miss Ashida ready to go out?"

When Junko and Enomoto were about to enter the villa, they saw Ashida Saori coming out of the villa.Junko stepped forward to greet her.

"Today is the New Year. I will go and bring my aunt back, and we will have a happy New Year together. Please do whatever you want to investigate. Deacon Akagi is preparing a New Year's lunch in the kitchen. If you have anything to do, you can go to him."

Ashida Saori finished her explanation and left.

Enomoto took out two bamboo sticks from his car and walked into the villa.

Junko wanted to go to the kitchen to say hello to Deacon Akagi, but Enomoto went straight to the window of the crime scene.Junko had no choice but to follow Enomoto.

"Enomoto-san, what are you going to investigate here today?" Junko was a little confused.

While observing the crime scene through the window, Enomoto said, "Didn't you tell me yesterday, how many methods have you thought of to crack the secret room? Today I'm here to test the feasibility of these methods."

Junko was surprised after hearing Enomoto's words, and quickly asked: "What method is it? How is Enomoto-san going to experiment?"

Enomoto didn't answer Junko's question. After observing the crime scene through the window, he took a few steps back and observed the exterior wall of the villa.After a while, Enomoto found a hole in the wall and looked through the hole.

Junko could only stand aside stupidly, completely confused about what Enomoto was going to do.

Seeing Enomoto half kneeling on the ground tinkering with the hole, Junko suddenly remembered that it seemed to be the pipe hole connecting the internal and external units left after the air conditioner at the scene of the crime was removed.Enomoto-san seemed to be particularly concerned about that hole before. Could it be that hole is the key to the formation of the secret room?

After Enomoto finished observing everything, he stood up and said to Junko: "I think of two methods at present, both of which use this hole. But although there are two methods, the difference is not big. Whether it is feasible or not, we will discuss it later. Experiment and see."

After Enomoto finished speaking, he took out the straight bamboo stick, walked to the air-conditioning hole, squatted down, and stretched the bamboo stick through the hole.

Junko watched intently, for fear of missing any details.

But the bamboo sticks only extended about half a meter inward, as if they had encountered an obstacle and could no longer move forward.

Junko didn't understand what happened, she just looked at Enomoto quietly.

Enomoto couldn't see any emotion on his face that had been paralyzed for thousands of years, but as if he had expected this situation long ago, he said in a low voice: "It really is."

"Enomoto-san, what's going on? What are you going to do?"

Junko couldn't bear it anymore.Curiosity killed the cat!

Enomoto pulled out the bamboo stick, stood up and said, "My idea is to use the bamboo stick to hold the key and put it into the drawer through this hole. Just according to the original measurement, I did an experiment on the model. This hole is the same as the key. The straight line of the drawer is blocked by the bookshelf, and the bamboo strips cannot reach the drawer. Now the field test shows that it is so."

Junko still didn't understand when she heard the words, so she could only frown and hold her chin in thought.

Seeing this, Enomoto squatted down and inserted the straight bamboo stick into the hole.

"Lawyer Qingdi, you can understand by looking through the window."

Junko went to the window and looked in, and could vaguely see that the bamboo sticks protruding from the hole met the obstacles of the bookshelves on the way forward, and the bamboo sticks were firmly pressed against the bookshelves, no matter how the bamboo sticks changed directions, the bookshelves were always in the way , Even if the bamboo strips are adjusted to the most oblique state, according to the edge of the bookshelf, there is still a difference of about two centimeters.If the bookshelf was narrower by two centimeters, the bamboo strips would be able to pass through smoothly, but the actual situation is that the bamboo strips cannot advance even one centimeter more than that two centimeters.

Only then did Junko suddenly realize.

Enomoto pulled out the bamboo again and stood up.

"Lawyer Qingdi, I think you should go to the scene of the crime. First, you can see it more intuitively and clearly. Second, you may need your help with some things."

Junko nodded.He went to the kitchen to say hello to Deacon Akagi before arriving at the scene of the crime.

Junko opens the glass window at the scene of the crime so that she can communicate with Enomoto more clearly.

"Lawyer Qingdi, the straight bamboo sticks will be blocked by bookshelves. Next, let's change the bent bamboo sticks and try again."

Junko nodded, quietly watching Enomoto stretch the bamboo stick into the hole.

"From the hole to the drawer, to go around the bookshelf, I have measured and converted the arc of the bamboo bar in advance, so the arc of the bamboo bar in my hand is made according to the measurement results."

Junko nodded in amazement.The bamboo in Enomoto's hand was bent into a "bow" shape. If it was made by himself, it seems that Enomoto had done a lot of preparatory work in advance.

Thinking of this, Junko couldn't help but relieve a little of the stagnation that had accumulated in her heart before.

Junko watched the bamboo sticks coming in from the hole in the room, feeling extremely nervous.

The author has something to say:

It is not drawn according to scale, mainly to give a schematic diagram so that everyone can be more intuitive

The red line in the picture represents the bamboo pole. In this picture, it is a straight bamboo pole, which is blocked at the corner of the bookshelf!
