Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 377 Naming the Murderer

"Shiina boy, do you already know who the murderer is?" With an anxious look on his face, Kogoro Mouri strode forward and asked the question that everyone present was most concerned about.

Why is this kid trying to steal my thunder again?

No, this case must be solved by me, the famous detective Mouri Kogoro.

Hearing this, Shiina Yuichi shook his head slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, then spread his hands and said, "I don't know, but when the results come out, it will become clear."

Hearing Shiina Yuichi's contradictory words, everyone couldn't help but frown slightly.

Especially Conan and Hattori Heiji, after looking at each other, they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.

They would never believe that Shiina Yuichi's actions were just for fun or meaningless.

There must be something fishy here!

Conan frowned tightly, his eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and his mind kept recalling all the details of what had just happened.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the shoes that Shiina Yuichi had mentioned before.

That's right, when a revolver fires, the bullets will indeed radiate outwards from the sound of the gunshot.

Therefore, if the murderer had not made any other preparations at the time, his clothes, pants and even shoes should have been stained with a small amount of gunpowder.

The answer is very simple. The police will find out if they investigate carefully.

But what Conan didn't quite understand was why Shiina Yuichi could insist that the murderer had not yet gotten rid of the gunpowder on his body.

This is really very strange.

As a detective, it is important to avoid letting your mind be influenced by preconceived ideas.

Although Shiina Yuichi has always done this, he can't do it today...

Because his idol is still among the suspects.

In order to prevent this guy Shiina Yuichi from questioning me in the tone of interrogating a criminal when I ask for my testimony later.

He must find evidence in advance that Ray Curtis is not the murderer.

Shiina Yuichi: It's okay, just steam it slowly~ I'm watching~~

As Conan ran away alone, Officer Otaki began to ask about the circumstances of the incident.

Only Hattori Heiji fell into thought as he watched Conan leave.

What's wrong with this guy?

Why do I feel so weird?

However, based on his understanding of Kudo Shinichi, he had most likely discovered some clues or figured out the whole thing.

In that case, I can't fall behind.

Hattori Heiji stared at Shiina Yuichi with burning eyes, and a hint of fighting spirit appeared in his eyes.

And you, come along.

Let me show you how powerful Hattori Heiji, the number one high school detective in Kansai, is.

Looking at the expression on Hattori Heiji's face, which had the words "I challenge you" written all over it.

Shiina Yuichi rolled his eyes.

Come on, he's busy.

Why would you be stopped by a dead man?

Officer Otaki is unaware that the young people around him now have their own ideas and still maintain the basic qualities of a police officer.

Through the joint description of Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha, we learned about the situation at that time.

At the beginning, the staff gave Toyama Kazuha a small job.

That is to cooperate with the three bosses and turn on the lights in specific rooms on each floor of the rooms that they have not yet made public.

From this, the letter "K" is formed.

Ray Katis is in charge of the first and second floors.

Mike Nord is in charge of the third and fourth floors.

The top floor is under the charge of Rica Barre.

After all the guests left the hotel, Toyama Kazuha was responsible for communicating with the three athletes using the walkie-talkie.

To direct them in this way.

Just as Yuanshan and Ye said.

They were progressing very smoothly.

But...less than two seconds after Carres turned on the light in the room on the right side of the first floor near the stairs, a burst of gunfire was heard.

Then, what happened next happened.

However, Officer Otaki also learned that Yuichi Shiina and Ed Michael had a conflict at the cocktail party.

Logically speaking, if something happened to the deceased, Shiina Yuichi should also be a major suspect in the crime.

It is not ruled out that Yuichi Shiina still harbored hostility towards the deceased and committed the murder in a fit of passion.

But everyone else can prove that Yuichi Shiina did not meet the deceased after the conflict broke out, and he has extremely sufficient alibi.

That's why Officer Otaki dispelled his suspicion of Shiina Yuichi.

It is worth mentioning that, judging from their descriptions, Ray Katis and the other two, except the deceased, did not have enough time to commit the crime.

"Shiina, don't you think there's something wrong with this body?" Hattori Heiji quietly approached Shiina Yuichi and spoke in a low voice.

Shiina Yuu turned sideways to glance at him and said in a calm tone, "The extended thumb and the index and middle fingers together?"

"That's right, and his other hand was tightly holding the belt." Hattori Heiji nodded, and then continued, "A person who was shot would not do such a troublesome thing."

"This is most likely a death message he left before his death to incriminate the murderer."

"I saw it, so what?" Shiina Yuichi still maintained a cold expression.

So what?

Hattori Heiji turned his head and looked at Shiina Yuichi, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

What what?

This can help them find the murderer as soon as possible.

How come this guy doesn't care at all?

Hattori Heiji's eyes full of doubt fell into Shiina Yuichi's eyes.

He then spread his hands and said slowly, "Do you want to know what that means?"

After these words came out, Hattori Heiji's expression became dull, and then he said in a somewhat strange voice, "You...already know?"

"His three fingers spread out represent the gesture used when eating sushi, and the belt he tightened with his hands represents BEND."

"In a sushi restaurant, people working in related fields will communicate in code, and BEND stands for the eighth dish."

After saying this, Yuichi Shiina paused and looked at Heiji Hattori with eyes that showed no emotion at all.

At this moment, Hattori Heiji also understood what Shiina Yuichi meant.

He looked up in disbelief, looked directly into Shiina Yuichi's eyes, and opened his mouth bitterly, "So you're saying the murderer is Ray Katis, who is famous in the football field for his No. 8 jersey?"

Shiina Yuichi didn't say anything, but just nodded silently.

"Brother Yuichi, is this true?" Mouri Ran also heard what Shiina Yuichi said and walked over with a complicated expression.

Looking at Ran Mouri's hesitant expression, Yuichi Shiina sighed secretly and changed his words when the words were on the tip of his tongue.

"In fact, I am just guessing. Whether this is the truth or not, we need other evidence."

"is it?"

Mao Lilan clasped her hands together, with a very conflicted expression.

Although Yuichi Shiina also said that he was just making a simple guess.

But considering what Mouri Ran has known about Shiina Yuichi for such a long time and his previous achievements in solving cases.

His inference was probably true.

But...if that's the case, what should Shinichi do?

Ran Mouri turned her head and looked at the door, but did not see Conan.

But her eyes were full of worry.
