How many character cards do you have?

It was already very late at this time, Miyazaki Wuhe, Kitano Jin and Ireland all requested to disband, anyway, the police couldn't find anything.

The policemen in Hokkaido have nothing to do, they can’t spend all night here, they glanced at Mori Kogoro as if asking for help, and couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed when they saw that he was still thinking hard. good.

"Then here tonight..."

"Please wait!"

A voice interrupted the policeman's words. The policemen were not angry. They looked towards the door in surprise and found a dark-skinned young man rushing over.

"Heiji, where were you before?" Kazuha asked in surprise.

"Investigated a little." Hattori smiled at her.

"And then? Do you know who the murderer is?" Mori Kogoro asked.

"That's right, but before I reveal the reasoning, I want to ask you a question again. Don't be nervous. You have answered it once before." Hattori looked at the three suspects and asked, "Let's start with Ms. Eri, When was the last time you saw Mr. Ichiro Fukada? What was he wearing?"

Eri hesitated for a while, then said: "It was at the festival, I saw him selling fried noodles, wearing a white sleeveless T-shirt, and dark, maybe black pants, I'm not sure."

"I didn't see him at the festival, but Fukada should be wearing a white top and brown hakama." Kitano Jin said.

"Well, I didn't go tonight, but Fukada should be dressed like this." Miyazaki Wuhe said after thinking about something.

"Why are the two so sure?" Hattori asked.

Kitano: "Because he wears it like this every year during the festival, it's a tradition in his family."

"That's right." Miyazaki Wuhe nodded.

When they said this, Baima Tan and Shiliang Zhenchun had already understood the truth, Baima sighed softly: "I still let you take the lead."

He was actually aware of the truth before, but he wasted time investigating the motive. Hattori is the son of the police chief of the Osaka Police Department, and Hakuba has a similar identity, but there are more cases in Tokyo. Huili's identity information was not received.

Hattori glanced at the white horse triumphantly, and continued his reasoning: "In this way, it is clear at a glance who the murderer is."

His eyes fixed on the three of them, and finally slowly settled on Eri who was covered in cold sweat at some point: "The person who killed Fukada Ichiro was you, Miss Eri."

The policemen also reacted now: "Is it judged from their answers just now, but why?"

"Let me explain first. The hakama Mr. Fukada Ichiro is wearing tonight is actually a brown skirt from the outside. You can only see the trousers inside when the outer layer of fabric is lifted off. Only people who have lived in this small town for more than a year know about it, and if you pass by a fried noodle stall, because most of the area is covered, you will only feel that he is wearing a brown skirt on the lower body."

Hattori touched his chin: "But let's just say that from the beginning, he was wearing a pair of dark brown or black pants."

Eri: "Maybe I misremembered..."

"It's probably because when you saw Ichiro Fukada, he was wearing pants, and it was in a farmland without lights. It is really easy to mistake brown for black at night." Sera Masumi suddenly said , while talking, he also took out his mobile phone and handed it to the police of the forensics department, "You can confirm the photos inside, the real scene of the first crime is not at the edge of the town, but a farm."

"What?" The policeman took the phone with a serious face, and the people from the forensics department quickly started to act.

And Sera Masumi looked at Eri whose face was getting ugly, and added: "If it's as expected, you should also be able to find this piece of fabric that originally belonged to Ichiro Fukada near the farm, because it is inconvenient to walk into the farm wearing a skirt."

The farm in the small town is not only a problem with the soil, the crops grow abnormally, and the weeds are almost half a meter high, so when Ichiro Fukada walked into the farm, he deliberately took off the outer fabric to reveal the inner pants.

"Hey, wait a minute." Maori asked suddenly, "According to your reasoning, there seems to be a problem, since we found that the place where Ichiro Fukada was found was not the scene of the crime, that is to say, after Ms. Eri killed Ichiro Fukada on the farm I must have used some means of transportation to transport Ichiro Fukada's body there, but Ms. Eri doesn't seem to have a car, and if she wanted to carry it, how could she not have noticed the color of Ichiro Fukada's pants under the lights in the car? question."

"that is because……"

Bai Ma Tan said: "There is another person who carried the corpse. If you guessed right, it should be Miss Keiko Qiandao, right?"

Hattori glanced at Tan Baima unhappily, and the latter smiled and said, "Sorry, you seemed to have gone to the backyard before, I remember hearing Miss Keiko Chishima's body there, and Keiko Chishima's reaction after the festival tonight was too much." It's too unusual."

Chishima Keiko's reaction was really strange, but it probably wasn't because of the corpse... Hattori Shindou.

At the same time, I also secretly admire Meguro, who thought of this first. An easy-chair detective usually does not search for evidence in person, but infers the logic and psychology behind it through dialogue. Hattori used to think that this method was too much Subjective, but now it seems that this guy has two brushes.

"Wait a minute!" Eri said loudly, "You guys have been talking nonsense since just now, how could I kill Mr. Fukada Ichiro, what he was wearing... Ms. Qiandao Keiko told me about it before."

"Oh, that's a good reason, but unfortunately, we have other evidence." Hattori looked at Eri's hand and took a step forward, "Sorry for being a little rude, can you show us your hand? ?”

Eri pursed her lips, and spread her hands to show.

Hattori glanced at it and said, "Sure enough, although Ms. Qiandao Keiko said that you were her helper, judging from your hands, you have never been exposed to heavy housework before, and your thumb, index finger and middle finger Some have thin calluses."

Xiaolan asked suspiciously, "What does that mean?"

"Xiao Lan, think about what you usually hold, and this part of the skin will often be rubbed on your hands?"

Xiao Lan, and Ye Ming thought hard.

Hattori has already revealed the answer: "The answer is the syringe. Of course, it is too thin to infer just this, so I turned to the evidence again. Although Fukada Ichiro's body has undergone secondary damage, only from the shape of the fatal wound Looking at it, the murder weapon should be something like a scalpel without accident, and it should be more certain if the residue of the wound is investigated."

The policeman from the forensics department nodded: "The result hasn't come out yet, but there's a high probability it's a scalpel."

"In this small town, only Miyazaki Wuhe is a doctor, and he is a pediatrician who hardly performs surgery. He has bad eyesight at night, and he is unlikely to be able to kill him in one blow. Moreover, things like scalpels should be rare in this small town. If the crime time is so short, the murder weapon should still be on him." Hattori looked at Eri.

This time, Huili didn't speak, and when the police approached her, they took out the murder weapon from his pocket with trembling fingers.

"How...why would Ms. Eri kill Ichiro Fukada?" Xiaolan asked puzzled.

Hattori said: "It just so happens that I have investigated the list of missing persons in this town in recent years."

He looked up at Eri who was silent with his head down: "Shinichi Tamagawa, is this name familiar to you?"

"It's my brother." Eili smiled miserably, "We have a very good relationship, but because our parents divorced, we have different surnames."

"When I first came to this small town, I was only here to investigate the reason for my brother's disappearance, but..." Eri showed a very scary expression for a moment, "I tried to ask Keiko Qiandao side-by-side, but she avoided talking about it, and finally Last week I took the opportunity to ask them while they were drunk, and Ichiro Fukada blurted out that my brother was dead long ago, but when I wanted to ask for further information, he was sober and refused to reveal any more information. "

"That's why you invited Ichiro Fukada to the farm and asked him about it."

"Yes," Eri turned pale, "At first I didn't intend to kill him, but after he knew that I was Tamagawa Shinichi's younger brother, he knelt down to me and said he was sorry for him, so I asked him who killed his brother , guess what he said?"

Hattori and other detectives remained silent because they knew that Eri didn't need to answer.

"He said he didn't know," Huili smiled sarcastically, "no matter how hard I asked, I got the same result. He said that the people in his small town had a strange disease a year ago, and some of them left the town. However, some people were reluctant to leave, wandering around the town like ghosts all day long, and when they came back to their senses, they saw Shinichi Tamagawa lying on the ground, except for Keiko Chishima who was locked in the hotel, everyone took With a bloody weapon."

"Of course, no one called the police. They collectively disposed of my brother's body. Everyone was an accomplice."

As she said that, she couldn't help sobbing: "I can't accept this kind of thing. He must be lying. He must have deliberately said such a reason to avoid punishment, so I..."

"No... what he said is true." When Kitano Hitoshi and Miyazaki Itsukawa learned that Eri was Tamagawa Shinichi's younger sister, the surprise and guilt on their faces could no longer be hidden.

Kitano Ren said with difficulty, "I only have a vague memory of what happened during that time, but he was right. After we woke up, we only faced a desolate town and a corpse lying on the ground. We Everyone has blood on their bodies, I can vaguely remember that he is a geologist who came to help us, but why did he do it, I don’t have this part of the memory anymore.”

"Liar!" Hui Li gritted her teeth and stared at him, "Do you want to say that everything was an accident?"

"Of course not," Miyazaki Wuhe smiled bitterly, "The only thing I remember is that I was completely enveloped by a strange emotion and madness at that time. I remember the vague memory of throwing a knife at that person, but I have no motive for doing so .”

Hattori, Hakuba and other detectives who often solve cases felt a sense of emptiness at this moment.

"Probably, the people in the small town at that time were the same as you who killed people at that time." After a while, Hattori digested the truth, "The mind was controlled by anger and madness for a moment, but committed a meaningless crime."

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, because we were cowardly at the time, and we who managed to survive were more greedy than anyone else for the preciousness of life, and didn't have the courage to go to the police station to confess our crimes." Kitano Jin and Miyazaki Itsukawa Chaoe Li knelt down, "Tamagawa Shinichi helped us, he wanted to help us survive until the end."

Eri's expression was sluggish for a moment, and tears filled her eyes. Is this... the truth?

Hattori and Hakuba frowned.

Will there really be killing intent and madness for no reason in this world?

In all previous cases, they could find the source of malice. It may come from the most extreme resistance of the murderer, and it may come from money, fame and misunderstanding, but they can always find a root that entangles everything together.

But this time the incident was not, or even known who really killed Tamagawa Shinichi.

Is it from this town?Was it the plague this year ago?Or was it just a simple unlucky...accident?

"Oh, what a boring farce." Ireland folded his hands on his chest. He knew the truth about this town a year ago, so he just sneered and looked at the scene in front of him.

Hattori glanced at him unhappily, pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, thinking in his heart, the only person who can dig out the truth is you, Kudo.

Although he didn't know what Conan was going to do, but maintained his trust in him, Hattori followed Conan's instructions and was responsible for holding Ireland and others here.

The root of all the weirdness in the town, as well as the mysteriously missing body, the answer to all this may be hidden deep in that castle.

……

The forest at night was more treacherous than what he saw during the day. Conan didn't have time to pay attention to his feet and quickly shuttled through the forest. He fell down several times and his knees were worn out. Finally, he saw the castle standing in the middle of the forest.

Under the night, the castle seemed even more eerie and weird. Conan swallowed, but thinking that Hattori was still delaying him, he gritted his teeth and rushed in. The gate of the castle suddenly opened from the inside, and Hoshinokawa seemed to have a premonition for Conan Will come, waited here in advance.

"Have you found the answer to the riddle?"

Conan nodded silently, looking embarrassed because he fell several times, Hoshinogawa turned his body sideways to let him in.

"How did you know the secret code of Detective Koshien? Why do you have to solve this problem?" Conan asked.

Hoshikawa tilted his head: "Why should I answer you?"

"Because I brought the answer you want." Conan raised the corners of his lips slightly, with a firm expression on his face. "It's fair to ask each other questions and give answers."

Hoshikawa nodded indifferently: "Okay, your first question, because I came up with this code, next, what's your answer?"

Conan's face became more solemn, but he quickly gave the answer: "The uncle at the festival gave a hint of massage in Braille, so I thought of Braille."

いち, い, いごい, いち, いごち, いごち, ちごい, ちごいち, いごち, いちごいち, いごいちえ

看似没有什么规律，但如果把：い、ち、ご、い、ち、え，分别看作1、2、3、4、5、6

In Braille, there is a specific set of Braille that uses numbers to represent English letters, a is 1, b is 12, c is 14, d is 145...

In short, if this set is matched one by one, the answer to the mystery will be solved.

bamboo story

"This is the answer I got, but why is it the Tale of Taketori?" Conan was puzzled.

Xingzhichuan smiled and turned around: "The answer is correct, come with me, everything you want to know is inside."

Hoshikawa walked into the depths of the castle, his figure was quickly overwhelmed by the shadows inside, the darkness in the castle was like a beast waiting to be devoured, looking for the next prey, Conan hesitated for less than two seconds, then firmly Take a step.

Into the boundless darkness.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

In fact, it is better to use the direct translation of Bamboo Tori Monogatari from its Roman accent, or there is also a version of princessfromthemoon, but the author is a scumbag in English, so I use a literal translation...

By the way, this code is inspired by Edogawa Ranpo's "Two Copper Coins", but the title of Ranpo uses six different Chinese characters of "Namo Amitabha" as the title, because there is no Edogawa on Conan's side I don’t know the reason for the work. There is this code solution (dog head). If you are interested, you can check how Braille uses numbers instead of English. You can match this code.
