Ke Xue's Kogoro

Chapter 115 Takagi Reasoning
Masuo Katsura built a house.

Kogoro's guess shocked Masuo Katsura, but as a person in charge of a bank, he immediately calmed down again.

Kogoro said: "There is an old saying in China, when things go wrong, there must be demons."

Kogoro said to Takagi: "Brother Takagi, please recall the detailed time of meeting Masuo Katsuo and Mrs. Masuo today."

Takagi suddenly became surprised, and he said, "Yes, last night the deceased said that he came to see me alone at 5 o'clock this afternoon."

Sato also said: "Later, I received a call from Katsuo Masuo, saying that he would come to me with the deceased at 2 o'clock this afternoon."

Gao Mu finally found Huadian: "Yes, this is too suspicious. Especially when I was talking on the phone with the deceased, the deceased also said that I remembered wrongly, and she set it at 5 pm. That is to say, Officer Sato I was deceived by Masuo Katsura."

"what?"

Sato glared at Masuo Katsuo, and asked, "That is to say, you probably planned to kill the deceased in advance after knowing the plan of the deceased. But what is the reason? And the method of killing, Mr. Mori?"

Masuo Katsuo was sweating uncontrollably, and Shiratori questioned: "Mr. Mori, although Masuo Katsuo's behavior is suspicious, it still cannot be used as conclusive evidence. If you have any evidence, you should show it directly." .”

Kogoro waved his hand, and he asked Takagi: "Brother Takagi, is there anything else that makes Masuo Katsuo suspicious? Think about it carefully."

Conan's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought that Masuo Katsuzo was really suspicious when they first entered the door.

"Let's think about it, the suspicious place. By the way, as soon as we entered the house, Masuo Katsuo asked us to go to the second floor, while he himself walked in the direction of this room. It took a few minutes for him to find the body , called us.”

Takagi's mind became clear: "In other words, Katsuo Masuo probably destroyed the evidence that may exist. But he has not left our sight. If he took something or destroyed the scene, there should be traces Leave."

Masuo Katsura couldn't help but wiped his sweat, always feeling a "danger" in his head.

Kogoro couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Takagi, your mind is still good. Then let's look at this dagger now, can you see the angle of attack?"

"Yes, it should be stabbed into the back of the deceased from above, because the dagger and the corpse are not perpendicular, there is about a dozen degrees of deflection. The murderer may have attacked the deceased in a similar way."

Shiratori walked to the bookshelf behind the bicycle, pulled back the curtain, and chuckled lightly.

"I think the murderer may be hiding in this bookshelf. You see, this board can be easily disassembled, so the murderer may be an outsider who invaded, hid in this bookshelf while stealing, and finally killed the deceased."

Conan turned on the reminder mode: "Ah, it's strange. This murderer actually had time to restore the bookshelf. It seems that he is not in a hurry at all."

Kogoro looked at the bookshelf, he didn't pay attention to it just now, but after Shiratori opened the curtain in front of the bookshelf, he saw something strange at a glance.

It was a small dot of a red liquid clinging to the bookshelf, very much like a bloodstain.Kogoro motioned for Conan to come over, and then held him up high.

"Conan, what do you think this is?"

"It should be blood. Wait a minute, Uncle, lift me up a little longer, and I see strange marks on the top of the bookshelf."

"Mr. Molly, have you found anything?"

Conan looked at Kogoro and said, "There are traces of adhesive tape on it, and the kite string on the bicycle wheel axle, I have already seen through the murderer's method of killing."

Kogoro looked at Takagi: "Brother Takagi, did you hear that, Conan has already seen the murder method. What do you think?"

"Tape, kite string, method of killing?"

The policemen at the scene thought about it. Takagi is indeed the person Kogoro is optimistic about, and he still has a good brain.

I only heard Takagi say: "I have a hypothesis, that is, the murderer taped the dagger to the top of the bookshelf, and then used a kite string to connect the bookshelf and the bicycle. When the deceased continued to step on the bicycle, the bookshelf was pulled down, and the bookshelf fixed on it The dagger kills the dead from behind."

Takagi looked at Katsuo Masuo who was sweating again and said: "Then as soon as we got here, Katsuo Masuo entered this room first, fixed the bookshelf, and tore off the tape. The reason why this murder method can be successful is that It must be because he knew the deceased’s work and rest habits, such as riding a bicycle at 2 o’clock every day, so at that time he would hand over half of the phone calls to me, and asked me to prove that the person who called me was the deceased.”

Shiratori squatted beside the dead man and retorted: "The deduction is wonderful, but unfortunately, there is no trace of tape on the dagger."

"what?"

Takagi and Sato raised their hearts that had just been put down.

Conan said to Kogoro: "Uncle, move some books and put them on the top shelf, choose longer ones."

Kogoro did as he did, and Conan reminded: "Look, if you put the books on the top shelf, the gap between the books and the bookshelf is very small, and it can be used to fix the dagger. And the sticky tape is probably It is definitely a small mechanism for force."

Kogoro felt a little guilty, he thought the tape was used to fix the dagger just now.He hurriedly said: "So we can look for those books that are glued with the blood of the dead. The murderer should not have time to deal with them."

Speaking of this, Kogoro looked at Katsuo Masuo again: "Mr. Katsuo Masuo, I think you must have the tape fixed on the bookshelf in your pocket. You entered this room first to destroy the evidence."

"Ah...this..."

Fearing that Masuo Katsura would sweat and collapse, Kogoro said, "Take it out and let me be healthy."

Seeing that Masuo Katsura did not want to cooperate, Kogoro said: "There must be a reason for the murder, and the deceased was killed today, so it is easy for me to associate this incident with the bank robbery."

Takagi once again opened his mind: "Could it be that the deceased discovered the identity of the robber. Because the deceased was once held hostage by the robber, it may be at that time that he discovered the identity of the robber."

"And Masuo Keizo wanted to kill the deceased, so it is very likely that the robber was Masuo Keizo's friend. Masuo Keizo didn't want the deceased to tell the truth, so he killed her first."

Takagi's analysis is very reasonable and convincing.Kogoro wondered secretly, could it be this guy who hired someone to rob his bank.

At this time, a policeman walked in with a photo album, and he opened one of the pages and said, "White Bird Police Department, we found this strange photo album in the bedroom of the deceased. Several people were circled on it."
