The Advent of the Infinite King

"Sweat... change clothes... shake hands..."

Thinking about it now, Horikoshi Yumi was indeed changed into a large yukata, and she was not wearing underwear. Even the index finger of the right hand holding the pistol did not pull the trigger, but stretched straight on the gun. outside.

The handshake style of play is exactly the way of holding the racket with the index finger straight. Mori Kogoro has a feeling that Horikoshi Yumi once played table tennis with the murderer before he was killed.

Thinking of this, he remembered what happened in the police academy.

"Old woman."

Xie Chen asked the proprietress of the hotel again: "Did Benkei stand all the time when he died?"

The proprietress of the inn said, "That's right, because Benkei had to fight countless enemies by himself, that's why he died standing up after getting many arrows in his body."

After hearing the answer from the proprietress of the hotel, Kogoro Mori suddenly said loudly: "That's right, that's it!"

"what?"

"Hey, Kogoro." Nakamichi Kazushi walked over and said, "What's the matter with you shouting so loudly?"

Mori Kogoro sneered, and said slowly, "Now I finally know who killed Yumi."

"what?"

"Who the hell is that, Dad?"

All eyes were on him.

"You are the one who killed Yumi!" Mouri Kogoro pointed at Nakamichi Kazushi and said loudly, "Kashi!"

"What?" Lingcheng Yukio said, "Kazhi killed Yumi?"

Nakamichi and Shi were stunned for a moment, then waved their hands, and said with a wry smile: "Don't be kidding, we infer that Yumi died at three o'clock in the afternoon, and I was obviously playing with you at the stadium at that time."

"Yes." Mori Kogoro nodded, "So you have a perfect alibi, but the premise must be that Yumi actually died at three o'clock in the afternoon."

"What nonsense are you talking about? The autopsy after Yumi's death was clearly performed by you and me."

Chapter 72 Deadly Injuries

"At that time, Yumi's corpse did indeed start to stiffen its toes."

Mori Kogoro said: "That's why I think that Yumi's death time must have exceeded seven hours, but there are exceptions, that is, sudden death during intense exercise."

Nakamichi Kazushi's pupils shrank in vain, and his expression gradually became frightened.

"At this time, the protein in the human muscle is easy to solidify quickly, so the stiffness will be faster than ordinary people after death, just like when the first hero Musashibo Benkei died."

Mao Lilan suddenly said: "Then Benkei will die standing up..."

"Yes." Mori Kogoro said: "So it is possible to die standing up, and this has been proven medically."

"Hey, hello." Nakamichi Kazushi said with a wry smile, "Kogoro, but the place where the body was buried was in Yumi's own room, why don't you tell me what sports I can let Yumi do there."

"No." Mori Kogoro said without hesitation: "Before Yumi died, she was not exercising in her own room, but on the table tennis court! Judging from the period before Yumi's death, you were fighting with her Tennis."

Nakamichi Kazushi suddenly took a breath, and looked at Kogoro Mori in disbelief.

Kogoro Mori stared at him, and said in a deep voice: "I think maybe you have made an appointment with Yumi long ago, and you have made an appointment with her to meet her at the normal court, so you suggested that everyone go to the table tennis court together before then."

Having said that, he paused for a while, and then continued: "Of course Yumi will go back to her room angrily."

"But after six o'clock, we all went out, and Yumi came to the table tennis field where you had been waiting for a long time."

"I think you must have some secrets to talk about, so someone like Yumi would agree to your invitation to ask her to play ball. After she played for a while, you and him went back to her room."

"Then you killed her in her room with the pistol you had hidden. The reason why the time of death was greatly advanced was to create your alibi."

"It's easy for you to arrange for Yumi to go back to your room, because Yumi is that kind of person, you just need to use her personality."

"The best evidence is that Yumi returned to the room in a panic while still holding the racket in her hand. You let her hold the pistol in her right hand because her right hand has become stiff from holding the racket!"

After Mori Kogoro expressed his reasoning in one breath, Omura Jun asked: "Then, the Yumi I saw after five o'clock is..."

"That's Yumi herself, that's right." Mori Kogoro replied: "Actually, she was still alive at that time, and she would look down at the billiard court from the second floor to wait for Kazushi to be alone!"

"The real time when Yumi was killed was probably when the fireworks started at 06:30. He cooperated with the fireworks, so even if there were gunshots, it would not be easy to be detected!"

Everyone looked at Kogoro Mouri in dumbfounded, no matter from which angle he looked at, his reasoning was well-founded, and Xie Chen gradually raised the corners of his mouth.

"However, Kazuki still has work to do at this time. He must wipe off the sweat from the corpse and change into a bathrobe, because if she is found to be sweating profusely, this method can be easily discovered."

"At this time, he had to take off Yumi's underwear and put on a new bathrobe that he had prepared a long time ago, but he didn't expect that someone would suddenly come to get in the way at this time."

"Because at this time, Xiaolan and Conan just came back and wanted to wake up Yumi. Before you finished the post-processing work, you first climbed from the window to the eaves to the corridor, and stopped Xiaolan's attempt to enter the room at the right time."

"Then, you took advantage of the fact that everyone was watching the fireworks together under the guise of being crowded out by the crowd, and came back to finish the rest of the work."

"You let Yumi hold a pistol in her hand, making people think that she committed suicide at this time, but at this time, Yumi's hand has long been stiff because of playing billiards, so there is no way for her index finger to pull the trigger."

After Mori Kogoro finished speaking, Nakamichi Kazushi sneered, and said slowly: "This reasoning is indeed very interesting, but what evidence do you have, why do you say it must be me."

"You don't have to quibble!" Mori Kogoro said loudly: "The only people who would use that kind of tactics here are me and you, who are policemen!"

Xie Chen sighed softly, and Kogoro Mori gave the other party room to maneuver by saying this.

Sure enough, Zhongdao Hezhi said with a smile: "See for yourself, then you also have the possibility, and this kind of common sense, as long as you look carefully in the book, everyone knows."

"You..." Mori Kogoro gritted his teeth, but in the end he still didn't give any conclusive evidence.
