The Advent of the Infinite King

"After that, he pulled the rope back."

Xie Chen said: "If you want to talk about the evidence, it's Miss Yongmei's armpit, which has very obvious scratches left after it was pulled with a rope."

Police officer Meguro asked, "You mean that the scratch marks on Ms. Yumi's armpit were left when she was thrown on the balcony?"

"Yes." Xie Chen said, "Although this method is dangerous and not guaranteed, the balconies here are all designed to face the river, so the possibility of being witnessed is reduced."

The reporters' eyes lit up, it was the first time for them to listen to a detective's reasoning at such a close distance, and they wished they could fill their interview books.

Okita Kazu's originally tense nerves gradually relaxed, but Hijikata Kozaburo was a little unnatural, wiping his sweat frequently.

"Even if he accidentally threw Miss Yongmei downstairs, using the geographical environment at that time, he can explain that it was thrown down after the murderer killed Miss Yongmei."

Xie Chen continued: "After Mr. Tukata put Ms. Yongmei down, he put back the room number and nameplate of the house on the sixth floor that had been changed beforehand to the original position."

"Then he ran to the room in Okita's room on the fifth floor, pretending that nothing happened and waiting for us to get the backup key to meet him there, and he also pretended that he was waiting anxiously look."

Officer Meguro said: "But is what you just said really feasible? Can you really put the body down and put the name tag back in place while you are going to get the backup key?"

Xie Chen said: "As long as he parks the elevator on the upper floor, of course he can buy a little more time."

Speaking of this, he slowed down his speech and said in an emphatic tone: "As far as I guess, Mr. Hijikata must have practiced many times before he can calculate the time so accurately."

"But..." Police Officer Mumu was still a little unbelievable, "Brother Maoli, didn't you take the elevator up when he invited you to the room at the beginning?"

He asked most people's doubts, "Then why didn't you notice that there was the sixth floor at that time? Because as long as you see the floor display in the elevator, you should have noticed it immediately."

Xie Chen smiled, "Officer Megure, you are right, because when we first got on the elevator, I was already confused by Mr. Hijikata's blindfold."

"What? Deception?" Officer Megure became more and more confused as he listened. The reporters also stopped writing and looked at Kogoro Mori suspiciously.

"Okay, Officer Megure now asks you to look at the floor display board inside the elevator."

Xie Chen said slowly: "I think there should be traces on it. I'm referring to the method Mr. Hijikata used to bring us to a strange space."

Officer Mumu nodded, turned around and opened the elevator door, and the reporters surrounded him, and there was a gray mark on the display panel of the elevator.

"What happened to that black dirt?"

Xie Chen said: "I think it should be the covering ink that Mr. Tukata applied in advance. As long as the vertical line at the bottom left of the display board is blackened, the number six will look like five."

"So that's the case." The reporter with eyes couldn't help exclaiming: "So there is such a technique."

"Wait a minute, please!" Officer Meguro ran to Kogoro Mori, "Brother Mouri, there is a second in the middle, if it is true as you said, when the elevator reaches the second floor, the words will be deformed? "

Xie Chen said: "That's right, we didn't notice it at that time, because Mr. Tukata gave us the business cards in the elevator, and his body just blocked the floor display board at that time."

"Really." Police Officer Mu Mu touched his chin and said: "In this way, the attention will be shifted to the business card. No matter the floor display or the buttons of the floor are covered by his body, he can't see it at all."

Xie Chen said: "As far as I can guess, he wiped off the ink when he stopped the elevator. The only chance to see that strange dick is when he went downstairs to look for the counter."

He shook his head slightly, "But I just want to go down quickly, and I don't have the intention to pay attention to that place at all."

Officer Megure nodded, so everything made sense.

Hijikata Kosaburo suddenly let out a sneer, "Wait a minute, big detective, what you said just now is a lie, you just want to put the blame on me."

He stared at Mori Kogoro and said in a deep voice.

"I want to ask you, what evidence do you have, proving that I killed Yongmei, and you are not on the fifth floor, but on the sixth floor. Let me ask, where is your evidence?"

His eyes were clear, his words provocative, and his expression full of confidence. Standing beside him, Okita Kazu couldn't help but take a deep breath. If Mori Kogoro couldn't produce any evidence, he would still be arrested as an important suspect.

The reporters also stopped writing and looked back and forth between the two, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Officer Megure turned his head, looked at Kosaburo Hijikata and said, "But the living rooms in the rooms on the fifth and sixth floors are all the same. How do you explain this, Mr. Hijikata?"

Kosaburo Hijikata raised his head with a slightly satisfied expression, "Why, it's against the law, I just like to arrange furniture like that."

He raised the corner of his mouth and said slowly: "Before you pick and choose me, I want to see what solid evidence you have. Otherwise, I will never plead guilty."

Xie Chen smiled slightly, "Mr. Tufang, why are you so confident? From your tone, you have already wiped off the fingerprints we left in that room on the sixth floor."

"What?" Hijikata Kosaburo turned pale with shock, and his previous aggressive aura was cut in half.

Xie Chen said: "That's right, you wiped it, that is, when we went down to the counter, you once hurriedly put away the black tea cup on the living room table, right?"

Officer Meguro said, "You mean the black tea cup."

"That's right." Xie Chen said, "Officer Takagi was able to enter the room on the sixth floor so easily because his heart was not there at all, so he forgot the key on the door."

The corners of Hijikata Kosaburo's mouth trembled, as if he couldn't control his emotions, he suddenly roared: "I've already told you! What I want to see is evidence!"

Chapter 240 Three Career Rise

Seeing Kozaburo Hijikata losing control of his emotions, almost everyone understood that he was the real murderer.

It's just that there is no conclusive evidence so far, and the police have nothing to do with him, so all eyes are on Mori Kogoro.

"Officer Mumu."

Xie Chen smiled and said, "Please check with Police Officer Takagi now, is there any small thing dropped on the floor of the living room on the sixth floor?"

At this time, Hijikata Kosaburo was like a frightened bird, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he asked hoarsely, "What's wrong with the floor?"

Officer Megure picked up the phone and contacted Takagi Tsutomu who was in the living room on the sixth floor at the moment.

"Brother Takagi, did something strange fall on the living room floor?"
