Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 199 Conan's Reasoning Is Perfect, Unfortunately...
The murderer plans to kill Suwa Michihiko while the show is live.

He left the studio during a clip in the middle of the broadcast, and then called Suwa Michihiko while running to the seventh-floor warehouse.

On the phone, he could find any reason at will, for example, he wanted to jump off the building from the position in front of his window, and let the other party see what he said to trick Suwa Michihiko into sticking his head out of the window.

At this time, the murderer took the pistol and plastic sheet that had been hidden in the warehouse when he was just picking up the props, and shot Suwa Michihiko who poked his head out from the window on the seventh floor.

Because the window at the scene is a center-hung window, the window opens upwards, and the murderer can throw the gun into the scene through this opening. The special structure of this opening will also be closed because of Suwa Michihiko's fall.

In the end, Takashi Matsuo just had to dispose of the gunpowder-smeared plastic sheeting and rush back to the studio. If he moved fast, the short film might not even have finished airing by then.

After everyone found the body, all the conditions at the scene would make the police think that someone fired four shots at the scene and killed Suwa Michihiko, and the fourth bullet casing found at the scene now had a reasonable explanation, that is, the shot The bullet to Suwa Michihiko's head was left behind.

Because of the maze-like topography of the TV station, it is impossible for the murderer to go back and forth between the fourth floor and the ninth floor within the time of the short film, so as to escape the crime.

"Isn't Takashi Matsuo the one who can carry out such a plan?" Kindaichiji said, "Sure enough, that's the murderer!"

Only Takashi Matsuo can implement this plan.

He was the one who left Suwa Michihiko alone in the office on the grounds of a private meeting.

He is also the one who can disappear in front of live TV for only 5 minutes as an alibi.

He is one of the candidates who can hide the murder weapon in the gap between the warehouse and the props.

He is also among those who have very good marksmanship to carry out the plan.

Kazuto Kinda suddenly understood what the videotape of the program he had obtained was a reminder of Takashi Matsuo's state before and after the 5-minute clip.

He remembered that Matsuo Takashi's hosting after the short film ended was really stiff, and he thought it was the result of dissatisfaction with Suzuki Yuko!

"But Matsuo Takashi's plan obviously failed, because the real cause of Suwa Michihiko's death was being crushed to death by your [thinker]." Conan said.

"But this plan is perfect, why did it fail?"

"No plan is perfect. There must have been some accidents in the middle." Conan analyzed: "The plastic sheet is obviously unused, and there is probably no gunpowder residue on it. If it has been used, there must be a lot of it on it." Traces of the rubbing, and probably have been destroyed by now."

"This proves that Takashi Matsuo didn't shoot at all, and he wasn't even about to shoot. Could it be that he got caught up in something when he was on the show?"

"No, Takashi Matsuo did leave the studio in a hurry at the beginning of the short film, and didn't come back until the 5-minute short film was almost over."

"In that case... By the way, I remember that I called Suwa several times today and the line was busy. Could it be the same at that time, and he didn't have much time to wait for the call to be connected, so at that time There is no way to get Suwa's head sticking out of the window, and the plan fails."

"There is this possibility, but there is another possibility." Conan thought for a while and said, "Maybe the call got through, but there was another person in the office at that time. If the plan was implemented at that time, all the arrangements would be in vain, so That stopped the plan."

"This... I don't think it's possible. If someone is really there, why don't you tell such a strange thing?" Kindaichiji didn't quite support this hypothesis.

"No matter what, Matsuo Takashi's plan failed, so he gave up his murder plan..."

"Afterwards, Takashi Matsuo came to see Suwa as agreed." Kazuto Kaneda cut the conversation and began to analyze on his own: "Suwa once told me that the decision to revise the program will not change, maybe it will be This annoyed Takashi Matsuo, who was already full of hatred, so he murdered in anger!"

That's right!
Kindaichiji's mood became agitated.

At that time, Matsuo Takashi had just killed someone, and Kaneda Kazuo, Mori Ran, and Conan came. In a hurry, he had to use ventriloquism to disguise himself as the voice of Suwa Michihiko to sneak past.

Next, he used a big brother to create an alibi for himself, but it was a pity that Kaneda saw through it, but the real gun he left in the warehouse because it was inconvenient to carry it saved his life!
Puzzles all solved!
The murderer is Takashi Matsuo!

Kindaichi stood up abruptly, as if his whole body was full of strength.

"Thank you so much, Conan!" Jin Tian ran away in one, two, three steps, not paying attention to Conan's shout behind him.

Jin TianYiRu ran to the fourth floor, found the Mumu Police Department, and told him that he already knew the true face of the murderer.

"Understood, I'll call everyone!" Memu Police Department said.

"No need, in order to save time, I'll tell you the reasoning process of the case, you just follow the prescription and take the medicine!"

"That's right~~ Why do I habitually call all the people involved together when I hear that the detective wants to reason and solve the case?" Mumu Police Department was thoughtful.

So Kindaichi and Er, under the surprised expressions of Megure Police Department and several other police officers, told the complete case.

"So that's how it is!" Meguro police department pondered for a moment: "Bring me Takashi Matsuo!"

Next is the confrontation between Kindaichi and Matsuo Takashi.

At this time, all related parties came over, and everyone watched the debate match between Kaneda Kazuji and Matsuo Takashi on the spot.

With the support of all kinds of evidence and Kanedaichi's aggressive words, Takashi Matsuo retreated steadily and finally admitted his crime.

He admitted that he had planned to murder Suwa Michihiko. Conan's reasoning was so powerful that he almost perfectly restored his plan. Even the reasons for his failure were exactly the same.

He also admitted that he used ventriloquism to deceive Kaneda and others at the scene.

He also admitted that he used a mobile phone to fake the time of Suwa Michihiko's death.

But...he refused to admit that he impulsively killed Suwa Michihiko.

He said that when he walked into Suwa Michihiko's office, Suwa Michihiko had already been beaten to death by that [thinker].

He said he was not the murderer!
At best he was an attempted murder!

Kindaichi was very dissatisfied, but he suddenly discovered that there was indeed no ironclad evidence that Takashi Matsuo was the murderer in all the reasoning of Conan and himself.

Conan did not show up to save him at this time, and he probably did not find the key evidence.

Sure enough, he was still too impatient, and Kindaichi couldn't stop regretting it.

Although the Megure Police Department trusts him more relatively, and also issued an order to temporarily arrest Takashi Matsuo for interrogation, but if there is no new evidence to support it, Takashi Matsuo may not really be the murderer.

In this case, even if it goes to court, it is difficult to convict him according to the principle of "no doubt".

Even if the general principle of "no doubt" is not taken seriously in Japan, as long as there is a better lawyer, it is enough to make the judge lean towards his innocence.

Seeing Takashi Matsuo's confident appearance, Kazuto Kinda felt like he was going crazy!
