Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 297 The Murderer Is This Old Drama Player

Since Conan suspected that Hijikata Kozaburo was the murderer, Kinda Kazuo felt that his suspicion of Hijikata Kozaburo was even more correct.

He stood aside and watched the initial confrontation between Conan and Hijikata Kozaburo, listened to Mori Kogoro's "famous reasoning", observed the situation in Okita's room, and learned about Hijikata Yumi's autopsy.

Combining all the known information, he fully understood what method Hijikata Kosaburo used to commit the crime, and even roughly thought of what the most important direct evidence was.

This is a conclusion obtained from not using the system at all, and Kindaichiji feels much more confident.

He could have directly told the Mumu Police Department the truth, but he suddenly had a better idea when he was at ease.

Guhata Ren Sanlang's dignified and harmonious face appeared in his mind.

"Since I can't find a suitable candidate, I will act it myself!"

As soon as this idea appeared, it immediately occupied all of Kindaichiji's thoughts.

What a strong temptation this is!
Although I'm young and my appearance doesn't quite match, it doesn't mean that one of the four major magic arts in Asia is Japanese make-up, and Kaitou Kidd's disguise is so powerful, presumably the entire Japanese technology should also be It is extraordinary.

So it shouldn't be a problem to make yourself look a little more old-fashioned.

Moreover, the screenwriter is himself, and it is not impossible to slightly change the character in terms of age and origin.

As for acting skills, the worst thing is to use all the savings in the past. If it is not enough, you can spend some reputation points to increase it. In addition, there is also the convenience of being able to play cats and dogs, so there should be no problem.

Coincidentally, now I have a chance to practice in advance, and I can also confirm the key evidence by the way, which really kills two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, Kazuto Kaneda touched the fishing line in his pocket that he took out from the system.

The thing that was drawn in the previous bronze lottery can just come in handy now.

······
After teasing Hijikata Kosaburo, Kindaichiji fully confirmed his reasoning based on his reaction.

This guy is the murderer who killed Hijikata Yumi, and he even knows the murder method except for some details.

Just at this time, Conan ran over and asked Officer Takagi to do something.

Kindaichi noticed the direction Conan came from, and immediately knew that he must also know the situation of the case like the back of his hand, and had already begun to wrap up.

That being the case, Kindaichi also decided to quickly end this farce.

"You said that the murderer was actually someone else?" Mumu Police Department asked.

At this moment, he has returned to the crime scene on the fifth floor, while Mori Kogoro stayed downstairs to deal with the reporters.

Kanedaichi and Conan looked at each other and said: "It's not wrong, the murderer used tricks to deliberately mislead our judgment, so that we mistakenly think that Mr. Okitaichi is the murderer."

"Then who is the real murderer?"

"Of course it is our veteran actor with outstanding acting skills, Mr. Hijikata Kozaburo!"

"What?! Are you kidding me? It was you who testified before that Mr. Hijikata was with you when Ms. Yumi was killed, and now you are telling me this again!" Megure police department said in surprise: "What's more, the rope used as the murder weapon was also found in Mr. Okita's house, and even he himself admitted that he was at home at the time of the incident. It is impossible for anyone other than him to bring the corpse to his house!"

"Well~ If the facts are as you said, Megure Police Department, then Mr. Hijikata is indeed impossible to be the murderer, but there must be a premise for this conclusion." Kaneda Kazuto put his fingers on his forehead: "We saw Miss Yumi The balcony that fell must be the balcony on the fifth floor!"

"What do you mean?" Everyone present was at a loss.

"Uncle Maori said that there will be a call to Uncle Megure soon, and you will know the truth then!" Conan reminded from the side.

"Brother Maori? Phone? What is this all about?" He took out his mobile phone from his pocket: "Could it be that Maori guy..."

Just at this time his big brother rang.

The Megure Police Department hastily connected the phone: "Hello? Takagi, is that you? Brother Maori said that you will tell me the truth of the incident. What do you mean?"

Since the Megure Police Department turned on the amplifier, everyone present could hear what Takagi said.

"I'm in the living room of Mr. Hijikata's other house on the sixth floor right now, but it's very strange here."

"What's so strange?"

"Whether it's the sofa, TV, curtains, or coffee table, everything here is exactly the same as the living room of the house where Mr. Hijikata lives just below the fifth floor!"

"Exactly the same!" Megure Police Department looked at Kozaburo Hijikata: "Mr. Hijikata, what's going on?"

Kozaburo Hijikata was not as nervous as he imagined, he just smiled lightly and said, "This is..."

"This is to make us people have an illusion." Hijikata Kosaburo's words were snatched by Kaneda Kachiji.

"illusion?"

"Yes, so we will think that the incident happened on the fifth floor, not the sixth floor."

"You mean, the real murder scene is actually on the sixth floor?"

"correct!"

At this time, the magic mirror once again appeared in the hands of Kindaichiji, spinning along his nimble fingers.

With Conan's help, he recounts Hijikata's ruse in full, as if he was watching it live.

Hijikata Kosaburo used some methods such as the elevator display screen, room number and living room layout, etc., to successfully make Jin Tianyi and the others think that they were on the fifth floor of Hijikata's house, but in fact they were on the sixth floor with the same layout.

This reasoning can be proved by the materials left on the elevator display screen and the room layout on the sixth floor that has not had time to change.

Then he killed Hijikata Yumi in the room directly above Okita [-]'s room on the sixth floor, and then set up a time-delay mechanism with fishing line to make the corpse sit.

This reasoning can be proven by the traces of fishing line on Hijikata Yumi's body.

Then when the time came, Kozaburo Hijikata deliberately called the room next to him to attract everyone's attention, so that everyone could witness the scene where Yumi Hijikata fell to the ground.Then he deliberately found a reason to send everyone away, and he himself dealt with the scene on the sixth floor, and used a rope to move the body to Okitaichi's house on the floor below.

This reasoning can be proved by the rubbing marks of the rope under the armpit of the corpse and the scratches caused by the throwing.

Then Kosaburo Hijikata waited at the door of the real Okita's family to welcome the arrival of the police.

This murder plan seems to be perfect, but it still leaves a lot of flaws.
