The Advent of the Infinite King

Luckily, Lu Tian asked, "Your body is stiff?"

Hattori Heiji explained: "The corpse usually starts to stiffen within three to ten minutes to two hours after death, and the whole body will become stiff within nine to twelve hours."

Everyone listened quietly. Although they were all Sherlock Holmes fans, they really hadn't studied this kind of thing.

"For the next 03 hours, it will continue to be stiff, and then it will gradually soften. After about 30 hours, it will return to its original state. The body of the boss sitting in the car at around [-]:[-] in the morning is completely stiff."

"So it can be judged that he was killed between 03:30 and 06:30 the afternoon before yesterday."

"In other words, the murderer did it before dinner, but what I can't figure out is why it is necessary to get the boss' body into the car so early."

Kento Toba said at this time: "It is to make him look like he committed suicide. The murderer must have killed the boss before dinner, then got into the car, and then fixed him in a state of holding the steering wheel tightly."

He also said in an orderly manner, "After his whole body became stiff, he finished dinner and took the opportunity to go to the garage to start the car. In other words, the murderer was one of the people who left the living room after dinner."

His words cleared his suspicions, but Lu Tianxing still asked: "Then why did the car speed up suddenly?"

Kawazu Ikuo also said: "It is impossible for a dead person to speed up by itself."

"That's right!" Mori Kogoro said suddenly: "The real murderer is you, the astrologer, Lu Tian Xingyu!"

"What did you say?" Lu Tian Xingzhi was obviously taken aback.

Mori Kogoro said seriously: "You must have used hypnotism to get the owner of the hotel to drive, right?"

"Uh..." Everyone was stunned. Is this the legendary detective?

Xie Chen sighed silently, and asked Hattori Heiji: "If the temperature rises, what will happen to the stiffness after death? Will it speed up the stiffness?"

Hattori Heiji looked at Xie Chen, showed an imperceptible smile, shrugged and said, "I don't understand the situation at all, because I'm relatively stupid."

"Forget it, I'd better go to the toilet."

"I'll go as well."

Xie Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, sooner or later, it's better to numb you first, and then try to stop your mouth, so he hid behind the door and secretly shot at Hattori Heiji with a watch-shaped anesthesia gun.

Immediately afterwards, Hattori Heiji leaned against the door panel and sat on the ground.

"This is too outrageous!" Lu Tianxing was still yelling at Mori Kogoro: "I'm just an astrologer, not a magician! How can I hypnotize people!"

"Uncle, the game is over." Xie Chen hid at the door and said in Hattori Heiji's voice. He was good at disguising, not only his voice, but also his tone.

"what?"

Xie Chen said slowly: "I already know who the murderer is, and I can't be wrong this time."

All eyes were on Hattori Heiji who was sitting on the door panel.

"That's right, in this hotel, you are the one who caused these three incidents!" Xie Chen quietly raised Hattori Heiji's arm, pointed forward, and put it down again.

"It's me?" Mori Kogoro asked in surprise.

"It's not you." Xie Chen said slowly, "I'm talking about Mr. Toba who is sweating coldly behind uncle."

As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to Kento Toba who stood at the end.

"Wait a minute..." Kento Toba hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Did I stay here for a few hours before the innkeeper started the car? Besides, when Lingzi was burned to death, I also followed All together."

"That's right!" Mori Kogoro stepped forward and said loudly, "You idiot! Don't look down on people, why did you suddenly mention him as a murderer?"

"Father..." Mao Lilan stepped forward to persuade.

Mori Kogoro waved his hand and continued: "I tell you, when the innkeeper starts the car, you are also with Mr. Toba. Tell me, how can he start the car like this."

Kento Toba nodded. At this time, a famous detective stood up to speak for him, and he was obviously relieved.

"That's right." Xie Chen said: "It does seem impossible, but if you use the stiffness behind death and a certain function of the car, it will be possible, right?"

Mori Kogoro said, "What do you mean?"

Xie Chen said: "The trick is this. Let the innkeeper, who has been dead for a whole day, sit in the driver's seat and fix him in a state where his foot is on the brake."

"After a long time, the body also became stiff. Even with the engine running and the gear shifted to forward gear, the car still wouldn't move because the brakes were on."

Everyone was listening quietly, watching Hattori Heiji, no one interrupted, this kind of reasoning is no different from a novel.

"Then open the garage before dinner last night, where you can wait for the body to soften, and then the foot on the brake will be released, and the car will start automatically."

Mori Kogoro laughed suddenly and said, "You idiot, it takes more than [-] hours for the stiff corpse to start to soften after death. You have to forget, this is what you said just now."

"What if the temperature outside is relatively high?" Xie Chen said.

"kindness?"

"If the temperature around the corpse is as high as 35 degrees, the speed of stiffness and softening of the corpse will be accelerated. It will start to soften within 24 to [-] hours."

Speaking of this, Xie Chen paused for a moment, and then continued: "The innkeeper disappeared after ten o'clock the night before yesterday. Let's assume that he was killed immediately at that time."

"The car started about 03 hours later at around 30:29 this morning, isn't the time very consistent?"

Xie Chen took a deep breath. Although he could change into anyone's voice without any tools, Hattori Heiji's Kansai accent was too strong when he spoke, and he had to take a break.

"The wind-like sound coming out of the car is not the air conditioner, but the heater. If the air conditioner is turned on, there should be water dripping down next to the front wheels. This is the result of my investigation."

Mao Lilan said at this time: "That's why you and Xie Chen went to check the tire marks at that time."
