Ke Xue's Kogoro

Chapter 32 Showing a face

House of Isao Tsujimura.

In the study room on the second floor, the police had not arrived at the scene so quickly, and only Kogoro, Koe Tsujimura, and the dead Isao Tsujimura were left inside.

Kogoro thinks it's better to use the ability to talk, after all, he really can't find any conclusive evidence now: "Mrs. Leaving traces. Being detected and convicted is completely different from surrendering and being convicted.”

"I still think it's better for you to surrender yourself."

Koe Tsujimura was shocked. She wasn't sure if Kogoro really had the evidence of her murder, or if he was cheating her with words.

So she was very angry: "Your detective is nothing more than that. I don't want to talk until the police come."

Kogoro saw that the other party was about to resist, so he stopped persuading him, and started talking to himself instead.

"The deceased was poisoned by nerve paralysis, leading to suffocation. According to the preliminary judgment of the situation, it is likely to be tetrodotoxin."

"And the poisonous weapon must be the needle on the ground. But such a small needle can be easily pulled out if it wants to pierce the human skin, so the needle must be fixed on something. "

"Da da da~"

"I knew it, Maori brother!"

Police officer Mumu gritted his teeth. After receiving a girl's call to the police, he had a feeling.When we arrived at the scene, we saw Kogoro, the plague god.

"Don't worry, Officer Mumu, no one has touched the scene."

"Okay, let the people from the forensics department go forward and investigate first."

It didn't take long for Police Officer Megure to grasp the preliminary situation.

At this time, Hattori Heiji ran in, holding a bundle of fishing line in his hand: "Hey, uncle, I know who the murderer is, and I have cracked the method of killing people in this secret room."

Conan saw the fishing line in Hattori Heiji's hand, touched the several balls of fishing line in his pocket, and knew that Hattori Heiji must be wrong.

"Hey, who are you?"

Officer Megure stopped Hattori Heiji from the door, and Hattori Heiji immediately introduced himself: "My name is Hattori Heiji, and I am also a detective."

Officer Megure's eyes widened: "Oh, so you are the high school son of the current director of the Osaka Police Station, Hattori Heizo."

"Let's not talk about that, Police Department. The doors and windows here are locked. The only two keys are in the deceased's pants pocket, and the other is on Mrs. Tsujimura who entered the study with us. This must be a secret room. However, I have already deciphered the method of killing people in this secret room."

Everyone remained silent, with an expression of watching Hattori Heiji's performance.

Then Hattori Heiji asked Police Officer Megure to pretend to be the dead, and then used the fishing line picked up from the trash can in the house to restore a secret room murder he imagined.

Hattori Heiji smiled crookedly, looking at Kogoro, who had never searched for clues from the beginning to the end, but always believed that the murderer was Mrs. Tsujimura, and felt that he had discovered the truth.

That is, Kogoro is a confused detective with no ink in his stomach. All the recent cases were solved by Kudo Shinichi in secret.This also explains why Kogoro's fame has never been heard before, but he only became famous after Kudo Shinichi disappeared.

After listening to the alibi of everyone in the family, Hattori Heiji locked the murderer.

"So you are the murderer, old Mr. Tsujimura. The proof is this line you used to fish."

However, Hattori Heiji waited for the complimenting eyes and applause, because the smiling backstab Conan was online.

"Ah, that's weird. Heiji-san, the key didn't go into the inside slit of Police Officer Megure's pants pocket at all."

"what?"

Hattori Heiji immediately dug into Officer Megure's pants pocket, only to find that the key did not enter the inner gap of the pocket at all, just as Conan said.For a moment, he was stunned, as if he had been petrified.

If it snows at this time, then the background music must be Yijianmei.

"I've said it all, this is not a secret room at all."

Kogoro hit Hattori Heiji mercilessly, whoever made this guy drag him like this would not break the law.

Kogoro said to Police Officer Meguro: "Officer Meguro, listen to my reasoning. In fact, this is not a secret room at all. At that time, our group was brought into the study by Mrs. Tsujimura, and then Mrs. Tsujimura killed Mr. Tsujimura without us noticing. .”

"That needle is the murder weapon. If you take it back for testing, you will be able to detect the blood and venom of the deceased. Because Mrs. Tsujimura was the first person to approach Mr. Tsujimura, she has sufficient time and modus operandi to commit the crime."

"But the needle is tiny, so it must be attached to something."

The forensic officer also said: "Yes, there are traces of tape on this needle."

Kogoro said with a smile: "Mrs. Tsujimura, you were holding the key in your hand and then approaching Mr. Tsujimura. I suspect that you fixed the needle on the keychain. Officer Megure, please check the keychain. And other things in her bag, you should be able to find something."

Looking at the ashen-faced Koe Tsujimura, Kogoro said: "After all, she hasn't left here since the incident happened. I stared at her, and she didn't have a chance to deal with the evidence that might exist."

Koe Tsujimura resigned himself to taking out the key, and opened the keychain. There happened to be a needle-shaped groove inside.Now, Kogoro's reasoning all made sense.

"But why, Mrs. Tsujimura, why did you kill your husband?"

What Police Officer Megure asked was also what other people wanted to ask.So Mrs. Tsujimura talked about it, only to realize that the case 20 years ago was also involved.

Kogoro shook his head and left the room. He liked to solve the case, but he didn't like to hear the murderer's confession.Either way, killing is killing.

Standing at the gate, Kogoro couldn't help smoking a cigarette: "Hey, lovers will eventually become brothers and sisters."

"Da da da~"

Hattori Heiji chased him out: "Uncle, you identified the murderer as Mrs. Tsujimura from the very beginning, how did you do it?"

"Young man, it's good to have ideas, but don't make your ideas too complicated. Remember, in most cases, the scene you see is the scene shown to you by the murderer. You can't follow the murderer's idea, you have to Make your own judgments."

Kogoro began to pretend: "You think, there is a murder weapon next to the deceased, and the death time is very short. Isn't Tsujimura the most likely to attack? If you don't insist on thinking that there is a secret room, you should be able to figure out the truth soon. Right. Heiji, there is still a gap between you and that fellow Shinichi. But it’s still bright for a while, let’s keep working hard.”
