Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 351 Mao Lilan's Reasoning
There were only two keys, one on the body and one on Akio Shigematsu. The murderer and Yusuke Sakuraba who could not have the keys had no way to lock the door after leaving.

Unless Akio Shigematsu is also an accomplice, but he has no motive.

"Speaking of motives, can you tell me what motive Sakuraba Yusuke had for murdering Mr. Morien Kikuto?" Megure Police Department asked.

The members of the Senyuan family looked at each other, as if they didn't really want to talk about these things, after all, it was a kind of scandal, let alone a scandal of a dead person.

In addition, Kindaichi and Liu Jianming, who knew about it, didn't mind telling them, but some people had already guessed the whole story through their ingenuity.

"I noticed that Sakuraba and Katagiri are both wearing the same necklace." Conan said suddenly, "And they are not happy today."

Hattori Heiji continued: "I heard from the reporter below that Mr. Kikuto seems to be secretly putting pressure on Ms. Katagiri's family business to force him to agree to the marriage. Miss Katagiri seems to have no feelings for Mr. Morizono Kikuto... ···”

"Brother Jin Tianyi saw it when he was having dinner tonight, that's why he said that, right?" Conan stared at Jin Tianyi with his big watery eyes: "By the way, Grandpa Mori asked you to chat several times before. Son, is that what you're talking about?"

"That's it..." Kanedaichiro glanced at Mikio Morizono: "That's true."

Morizono Mikio let out a long sigh, and finally told the whole story.

Yusuke Sakuraba did have the motive to kill because of Mori-en Chrysanthemum's swordsmanship.

But still the same sentence, no one has the conditions to commit crimes.

After hearing the possible motives of Sakuraba Yusuke, Mao Lilan had a whim and put forward the "suicide theory of Mori Garden Chrysanthemum".

Since the crime scene is a secret room and there is no way for the murderer to escape, is there a possibility that the murderer escaped by jumping down through the window?
At that time, the only person who jumped out of the window was Senyuan Juren, so the murderer was himself, so he committed suicide.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone gasped and looked strange.

In Mao Lilan's reasoning, Senyuan Juren locked himself in the room, then deliberately injured himself, and then pretended to call for help to attract the attention of others. When someone noticed, he pretended to be caught The person pushed down the stairs and jumped off the building to commit suicide.

But why did Morizono Kikuto do this?
Mao Lilan's explanation is that Mori Garden Chrysanthemum really likes Ms. Kaede Katagiri, and even uses means to intimidate her, and really prepares for the wedding.

You must know that Playboy will not abandon his forest casually under normal circumstances.

But when he accidentally heard the conversation in Mitsuo Morizono's office tonight, he fell into great grief.

He knew that he had no way to disobey his father's decision, and he lost his beloved woman. Under this painful blow, he planned to commit suicide.

But the simple suicide made it difficult for him to vent his hatred, so he deliberately created an illusion that he was murdered, in order to take revenge on Yusuke Sakuraba who had the most motive to kill.

At first glance, this story still has some truth, and it barely makes sense, but it is actually full of loopholes.

Although Conan couldn't bear it, he refuted Mao Lilan's reasoning together with Jin Tianyi and the others.

The first is logic. Since Morien Chrysanthemum wanted to create the illusion of being killed by Sakuraba Yusuke, why did he create a secret room?
He could have directly left things on the scene to testify against Yusuke Sakuraba, such as the murder weapon that hit the back of the head.

In fact, the murder weapon that hit the back of the head was an ashtray that disappeared in Kikuto Mori's room, and the police have not found it so far.

No one is suspected in the current situation, isn't that superfluous?

There is another problem that cannot be ignored, and that is the two blow wounds on the back of Senyuan Juren's head.

It is difficult to reach the locations of those two wounds by yourself, and even if you can get them, it will be difficult to exert force. The other two wounds are very serious. A little bit of bad luck may kill someone, even if it is It's impossible to be so cruel even if you have a death wish, and it's also impossible to be so just.

Xiaolan seemed a little frustrated when she heard that everyone had overturned her reasoning, but Conan quickly gave her an affirmation, allowing her to recover quickly.

"Hey, why is Xiaolan starting to reason too?" Liu Jianming and Jin Tianyi Er whispered.

"Ah? Can't she reason?" Kindaichiji asked back: "I think she's pretty smart too?"

"She's pretty smart, but it was used to be considerate of other people's difficulties and discover suspicious points in Conan." Liu Jianming curled his lips.

Kindaichi immediately understood that this kind of positive reasoning was not in Mao Lilan's original work, but Jintian didn't know how he affected her.

At this time, Liu Jianming made a suggestion.

Since the precise conditional search can't find the suspect, it's better to expand the scope of the investigation, maybe we can find out some clues, and send more people to search for the existence of outsiders in the villa and check whether there are any signs of outsiders coming in and out, especially It's those reporters, let's see if there are any impersonators.

In addition, the search for the murder weapon must be stepped up.

So everyone began to accept a new round of alibi investigation, this time it was the course of action throughout the night.

It's a stupid way, a common way for the police to break the situation, but it works to a certain extent.

But it took a lot of effort, but the result was not satisfactory.

The servants asked everyone, and none of them had more than 5 minutes alone.

Conan and others were accompanied throughout the tour of the villa after dinner, and there was no time to act alone.

Although Kindaichiji left the team several times, he was accompanied by a certain servant every time, so he was not suspected.

Senyuan Baihejiang accompanied Conan and others to tour the villa all the way after dinner, so there was no alone time.

Only Mikio Morizono, Akio Shigematsu, Yusuke Sakuraba and Kaede Katagiri have more complicated behaviors.

Mikio Morizono was in his office the whole time.

He went back to work in the office after dinner, and Kazichi Kinda later came to tell him about his discovery, but until then he was alone, and no one knew what he had done.

But he will only be alone for a while, and then Shigematsu Akio, Kaede Kaede, and Sakuraba Yusuke will arrive one after another, and then they will not leave until Morion Kikuto calls for help.

What's more, his legs and feet are not very agile, it is difficult to kill a young guy like Senyuan Juren.

Akio Shigematsu, Kaede Katagiri, and Yusuke Sakuraba are similar, all having some alone time before seeing Mikio Morizono.
