Chapter 384: Gross Profit Exclusion Method, Late but Arriving

Seeing the expressions of Conan and Hattori Heiji saying "I understand" and "I understand too", Nobushige really wanted to ask "What do you understand?".

In fact, his reasoning ability is no weaker than Conan, otherwise Hattori Heiji would not be so sure that he was Kudo Shinichi.

However, perhaps because this case involves Kikue Tanaka, Nobuhige, who knows more than others, has more concerns, and his preconceived notions prevent him from thinking about the problem fairly and impartially.

Anyway, so far, he has not found any evidence against the murderer.

Officer Memu was also confused: "Have you come up with the result of your reasoning?"

Even though Conan had asked him for some help just now under the guise of "Brother Hattori asked me to ask," Officer Megure still couldn't figure out what medicine the two detectives were selling.

Hattori Heiji knew that Conan was unable to reason due to his identity, so he volunteered to stand up and said: "Of course! I already know who is lying between Kubota Yumiya and Mitsuha Tadao!"

"That must be Kubota Yumiya." Mouri Kogoro now has blind confidence in Mitsuha Tadao.

The Megure Police Department knew how unreliable Mouri Kogoro was when he was awake, so the more he believed in Mitsuha Tadao, the more the Megure Police Department felt that Mitsuha Tadao was a serious suspect.

Hattori Heiji met everyone's curious and inquiring gazes, and said with a smile: "Just now I asked Conan to verify with the police that the only tram line near Kubota's house happens to be where Officer Takagi usually commutes. On the day of the incident, the tram stopped at six o'clock Half out of service for maintenance, Kubota Airi boarded the last train.

"Even if Kubota Yumiya went out to follow his wife immediately, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would be able to catch the same train. According to police records, the Kubota family's car was started on that day, so Kubota Yumiya should have driven out at that time. .”

"So what?" Mouri Kogoro said dismissively, "You can't tell when he arrived at the park by car or by train, right?"

"No, you can judge!" Hattori Heiji looked at Nobutushige, "Asano, what do you think?"

Nobushige met Hattori Heiji's confident eyes, and his thinking seemed to resonate with the detective's logic at this moment.

He spoke in a calm and firm tone: "The basis for Hattori's judgment should be time. Self-driving is different from taking rail transit. Due to the road conditions, self-driving is more uncertain. And Tokyo is a very crowded city. From 5 p.m. to 5 p.m. Between 8 o'clock and 8 o'clock, there is a huge amount of traffic in the evening rush hour.

"Mr. Mitsuha said he saw Kubota Yumi in the park at eight o'clock, but it was impossible for Kubota Yumi to arrive at the park at eight o'clock."

Mitsuba Tadashi turned around and looked at Nobutano: "But I'm pretty sure I must have seen it at that time..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Hattori Heiji: "Have you really seen Kubota Yumi's face?"

Mitsuha Tadao was stunned and said subconsciously: "Apart from Kubota Yumiya, who else would Ellie have a tryst with in the park at night?"

"That's the problem." Hattori Heiji said, "It was already dark at that time, and it was difficult to see things clearly with the human eye from a relatively long distance in a park full of trees..."

"Ah! I know!!" Mouri Kogoro suddenly shouted and stood up.

Hattori Heiji was interrupted by him and glanced at his uncle speechlessly.

"I know!" Mouri Kogoro pointed at Tadao Mitsuha angrily and said, "I should have thought that the murderer who could do such inhumane acts to the deceased must have a good psychological quality! You just took advantage of our trust, Deceive us!"

Conan silently complained: "Can we get rid of them?"

Mitsuba Tadao was shocked and said: "Mr. Mori, are you doubting me?"

"I'm not doubting you, I'm very sure that the murderer of Mrs. Ellie is you!" Maori Kogoro said confidently, "You know that the relationship between the Kubota couple has always been bad, so you used this to confuse the police. You deliberately The police thought that Yumi Kubota might be lying, but in fact the person who lied was you!"

Nobushige was sitting next to Mouri Kogoro. He silently reached out and pressed Uncle Mouri's shoulder: "Mr. Mouri, as a senior, you always have to give your juniors who are also detectives some opportunities to express themselves. Let's listen to Hattori's reasoning first. , please correct me if I have any questions.”

Mouri Kogoro felt very comfortable with the flattery and immediately sat down, pretending to be a senior expert: "Asano is right, then I will listen to your reasoning first."

A few drops of cold sweat fell from Conan's hair.

Well, he really admired Mr. Asano for how he could always treat his uncle with humility despite knowing his true nature. Well, that's great.

Hattori Heiji immediately seized the opportunity of Mouri Kogoro's silence and slapped him in the face crazily: "You may be able to tell the identity of Kubota Airi from the woman's hairstyle and clothes, but Mr. Kubota and Mr. Mitsuha have almost never met before. In such a situation, It's very possible to admit a mistake in the dark night. So I think neither of them actually lied, they just saw it wrong."

"What!" Mouri Kogoro still couldn't hold back, "This is just your guess. If Kubota Yumi didn't lie, how would he explain seeing Tadao Mitsuha at 9:30?"

"Mr. Mitsuha had already gone home at that time. This can be proved by the sound of 'boom' he heard at nine o'clock." Hattori Heiji placed an accident report from the Traffic Division in front of Mouri Kogoro, "At nine o'clock, a car had a flat tire near Tadao Mitsuha's house. The loud noise he heard came from here."

Megure Police Department touched his chin thoughtfully and said, "If that's the case, Mitsuha Tadao and Kubota Yumiya didn't lie. Then who was the person they saw with Kubota Airi?"

"Did you forget someone?" Nobuhiro asked.

Officer Megure was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Hamano Toshiya! Could it be that the person Mitsuha Tadao and Kubota Yumiya saw at that time was Hamano Toshiya?!"

"It's possible." Hattori Heiji immediately said righteously, "Megure Police Department, I think it is necessary for the police to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Hamano Toshiya, such as the surveillance near Hamano Toshiya's apartment."

Without authorization from above, and Hamano Toshiya's suspicion was very low, the Megure Police Department did not take all measures. Now that two of the three suspects have been basically cleared of suspicion, the remaining Hamano Tori has become the main suspect of the police.

The Mumu Police Department thought for a while, and finally gritted their teeth and made a decision!

But this also proves a theorem again:

The gross profit exclusion method is late but coming!
