Chapter 979 Skills
The investigation work started the next day, and everyone who was at the legal scene yesterday was retained for one-on-one questioning.
Judging from the situation at the scene alone, we can already rule out the suspicion of many people, because many people never left the scene from the beginning to the end of the legal proceedings and had no time to commit the crime.
Among them, the most suspicious one is Ken Nishimoto, an unemployed vagrant on the island.
He remained silent during the questioning and appeared very nervous.
Ken Nishimoto was also the playmate of the murdered Mr. Kawashima since childhood.
The final result was that one of the two playmates became a vagrant, and the other became the most famous entrepreneur in the village. The motive for murder was also mature.
But of course, suspicion is just suspicion. According to the inquiry, besides him, there were six other people who had the time to commit the crime.
They are the current village chief Kuroiwa, one of the village chief candidates Shimizu Masato, village chief Kuroiwa's daughter Kuroiwa Reiko, village chief Kuroiwa's daughter's boyfriend Murasawa Monday, village chief Kuroiwa's secretary Hirata Kazaki and village doctor Asai Makoto.
This long questioning lasted all day, and it was 6:30 in the evening.
"It's strange. Takeshi Nishimoto has obviously ended the inquiry for so long, why haven't you left yet?"
Xu Yue said in a puzzled tone, which also diverted Conan's attention.
Then under the gaze of the two people, Ken Nishimoto, who looked at his watch, left the hall and walked towards the toilet.
At this time, Conan immediately followed him. He had a gut feeling that there must be something wrong here!
But when he got to the toilet, he unexpectedly found that Ken Nishimoto was not there.
At this time Xu Yue also walked in and said with some surprise
"It seems that he is no longer here, so he went to the second floor?"
There was a staircase just outside the toilet, and there was indeed a blind spot in the direction he came from.
However, at this moment, the voice of Moonlight Chapter 2 also came out from the radio, which made people feel bad.
Then Xu Yue rushed forward with Conan, and then saw the open door of the broadcast room and Ken Nishimoto sitting slumped at the door.
After waiting until it passed, he saw the body of the murdered Black Rock Village Chief inside, and he fell on the radio station with his eyes open. At this time, the sound of Moonlight Song was still playing on the tape.
After glancing at the scene, Xu Yue's eyes moved slightly and he felt a little satisfied. It seemed that because of his appearance, the plan of Honest 'Beauty' also began to change slightly.
In the original work, Kawashima, the first person to be killed, forced the accompanying forensic doctor to take the body to Tokyo for an autopsy, and then took over the work of the forensic doctor himself, thereby creating a time difference in the second murder.
However, the biggest flaw was found in a piece of blood-stained music sheet that had been dried on the ground.
At that time, he wanted to use his alibi to clear away his suspicion, but instead he left the most direct evidence of murder.
Xu Yue, who is familiar with the plot, deliberately made an accurate judgment by conducting an on-site autopsy after Kawashima was killed. Apparently, he also successfully dispelled the idea of an honest doctor.
It forced him not to put extra thought into making small moves when he committed the second murder.
This also leads to the fact that the fewer small moves are done, the smaller the flaws left.
There are so many suspects. As long as he can keep pretending to be a woman, there will be no suspicion on him in the end.
There is no need to do anything extra...
"The time of death was within half an hour, but the time of the murder was unpredictable."
Xu Yue walked into the scene wearing gloves and made a simple judgment.
"The deceased showed signs of being hit hard on the head, and the stab wound on the back was not fatal immediately. After the deceased entered a chronic death, the range of the murder time could be extended to a wide range. However, the blank time in the tape was half an hour, so the murder was The time should not exceed this time at most..."
Xu Yue looked around and nodded at the situation at the scene.
Well, maybe it was because his own action dispelled his idea, so he no longer used the blank side on the back of the tape to extend time.
Because it is a tape, it can be adjusted manually, so you can press the switch at any time within half an hour to make the sound sound during this time period, which also coincides with the time of death...
…
"It's not me, it's not me! It was Heiyan who asked me to come up."
Ken Nishimoto had a collapsed expression on his face.
"Then you killed him, right? You were also highly suspected in Mr. Kawashima's death."
Mouri Kogoro said with an affirmative expression.
But at this moment, Xu Yue interrupted him and explained the newly discovered clues.
“Another musical score was left at the scene, and I compared it to the first murder. If the piano keys corresponding to the musical score are converted into Roman pinyin, we can generally spell out what the murderer wanted to express. "
During the first murder, there was a sheet of music on the piano. During the second murder, although Honesty no longer wrote it in blood, he still left behind another sheet of music.
"The interpretation is, 'Understand, you are next.' and 'The resentment of sin is eliminated here.'"
"And it should be noted that I found that I am not the only one who can understand the meaning of this music score."
Conan next to him was shocked, I am Cao, he won't pull me out!
"Because Mr. Ken Nishimoto should be able to understand it, that's why I am always so afraid."
Xu Yue's last words made Conan stunned. He found that Ken Nishimoto was mentally abnormal, but did he understand the meaning of the music score?
Then will you be afraid? What are you afraid of? Why didn't he say it again?
At this time, Conan could almost eliminate Ken Nishimoto's suspicion. It always felt like he had been thinking that he might be the one who was killed...
"Yes! Of course I can understand! It's him! It's Aso Keiji who's back, it's him who's back!"
After being named by Xu Yue, Nishimoto Ken did not deny it at all. Instead, he fell into a state of mental breakdown and kept mumbling to himself.
But at this time, the police stationed in the village also came to the scene and interrupted what he was saying unceremoniously.
"How is it possible? The bones and teeth of the corpse found after the fire have been compared. The deceased was Mr. Keiji Aso. Only the music scores in the safe were preserved in the entire fire."
"Music score?"
There was an expression of surprise on Xu Yue's face, and Conan was also moved in his heart. However, because Xu Yue was supporting him on the surface, he remained calm and did not risk making a statement.
Anyway, just follow Brother Sato when the time comes.
"Yes, I remember storing it in the warehouse. I know where the key to the warehouse is..."
"Let's go, I'll go get it with you. There might be clues in the music score."
Xu Yue said decisively, and Conan followed behind and shouted, "I want to go too." ’
However, after searching for more than an hour, the elderly policeman stationed in the village was unable to find the key to the warehouse, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
"If you can't find it, then you have to force the lock. I happen to know a little bit about this technique, so let's go."
After the estimated time was almost up, Xu Yue said to the old policeman and Conan.
"You didn't tell me earlier."
Conan rolled his eyes at Xu Yue and complained about him crazily in his heart.
"Well, it's not nice to break someone else's lock."
Xu Yue revealed the pistol at his waist, and then put down his clothes, giving Conan a dead-eyed expression on his face.
Haha, this is your lock picking skill...
