Wow!

After lifting the branches that blocked their view, Sakaki and the others came to a slightly open area. The big trees seemed to have disappeared, and the top of their heads was blue, like a crop circle, with a slightly dilapidated wooden house standing in it.

"That's the cabin."

After Conan confirmed the location of the bug, he turned off his glasses:

"Momoe Takenaka is in the house."

"Isn't that the ranger's house?"

Kidd said with a strange look:

“Could it be that Momoe Takenaka is a ranger?”

"Who knows."

Holding MK23 level, Sakaki walked towards the wooden house:

“You’ll find out once you go in and take a look.”

In the tracking signal, the three of them had gone deep into the jungle, with no one around. When a hut suddenly appeared, they would definitely be wary.

Perhaps because it had just rained, the ground under my feet was a little muddy, mixed with leaves, and there was constant noise.

After stepping onto the wooden ladder, Sakaki came to the door of the wooden house. He suddenly stopped and looked around, frowning slowly:

"No one has been here for a long time."

The two Corgis who followed them also noticed something was wrong. The door of the wooden house was covered with dust, and there were only a few footprints. Compared with the broken glass on the side and the ferns climbing up the eaves.

"An abandoned cabin?"

This thought arose in the minds of the three of them at the same time, and none of them could figure out the purpose of Momoe Takenaka coming here.

Pushing open the wooden door, the smell of decaying wood hit his face along with the smell of fern sap. The room was dark, and the nearly 100% air humidity made Sakaki's hair tighten, and the back of his bare hands was soon covered with a thin layer of water vapor.

The wooden house is not big, with only two rooms. There is a living room right after entering the door. There is a dirty black stone pot in the middle, and weeds are crawling in the gaps between the ceiling and floor.

The three of them planned to sneak into the room quietly so as not to alert Takenaka Momoe, but the floor under their feet refused to allow it!

The precarious wooden floor is like a natural alarm, emitting a scream on the verge of collapse with every step.

Take two steps

Sakaki simply stopped pretending. He really couldn't pretend anymore. With the help of Conan's flashlight, he checked the room. There was no electricity in the wooden house, and there was only a burned-out white candle on the table in the corner. No matter how you looked at it.

It doesn't look like anyone lives here.

Entering the back room, there was a single bed in the corner. The sheets were covered with mildew and were soaked. There was a big hole in the roof that kept leaking.

"Oh, this house also has a panoramic skylight!"

Kidd laughed:

“The people living here are kappas, right?”

"Are you sure the bug is located here?"

Ignoring Kid's complaints, Sakaki looked at Conan.

"That's right"

Conan opened his glasses again. The center where they were was completely coincident with the red dot, and the distance between them was no more than 3 meters.

but.

Not to mention Momoe Takenaka, they didn't even see a ghost!

The three of them looked at each other for a long time, nodded slightly, spread out, and started looking for the mezzanine in the wooden house.

There is no doubt that the bug must be in this cabin, if not on the surface, then it must be.

Boom!

Sakaki knocked on the floor in the corner and heard a hollow echo from below. He bit the MK23, touched the greasy moss in the gap with his fingers, and exerted a little force.

Click!

He dug out a long wooden board, revealing a hole underneath that was large enough for an adult to enter.

"Found it?"

The two corgis rushed forward and asked.

"Give me the flashlight."

Conan took his watch and handed it to Sakaki Makoto, and the light shined down.

A big pale face suddenly appeared, and the owner was none other than Momoe Takenaka.

"Fuck!"

Kidd and Conan shivered in fright. They were used to seeing corpses, but the sudden appearance of corpses still frightened them:

"Dead?!"

"Dead."

With his fingers pressed against Momoe Takenaka's cold, unfluctuated neck, Sakaki said solemnly:

"Rigor rigor mortis has already occurred, and he has been dead for some time."

"Brother Kidd, help her and pull her up. Conan, go call the police."

"good."

Mao Lilan was away, so the burden of calling the police fell on Conan's shoulders. Sakaki and Kidd dragged Momoe Takenaka up and laid them flat on the floor. A faint corpse smell began to permeate the room.

The body was lying in the mud under the wooden house, with obvious blackmail marks around the neck. If Sakaki had not installed a bug in advance

I'm afraid that until Momoe Takenaka turns into a pile of bones, no one will discover the location of the body.

"Who is so cruel?"

Kidd looked a little ugly and said:

"It's absolutely crazy to kill someone and hide the body in the mountains!"

"Is the murderer and the criminal who killed Naoki Seiichi the same person?"

"Probably not."

Sakaki put on gloves and began to examine the body:

"Momoe Takenaka did not experience any obvious struggle before her death. Her toes were level, there was bleeding on the back of her head caused by being hit with a blunt instrument, her lips were blue and purple, and there was a lot of fluid between her mouth and nose."

Speaking of this, Sakaki leaned down, smelled the taste of the corpse's mouth, and his eyes flashed:

“Smell of sulfur”

"Bluish lips, I remember, are signs of death from suffocation, right?"

Kidd was stunned for a moment:

"The sulfur-smelling water, could it be a hot spring?"

"Well, it's eighty percent correct."

"But since the prisoner strangled her to death, why did he still need to immerse her in the water? Isn't this a conflict of techniques?"

"No, there is another possibility."

Sakaki Makoto raised his head and said in a cold voice:

"The criminal strangled Takenaka Momoe in the water."

"Why did you do that?"

"The hot spring water in the hotel is flowing and will be completely replaced every 20 minutes on average. If you want to strangle a person to death, it may cause a reaction to life, which is the so-called traces of struggle, which is an important basis for the police to solve the case."

After a pause, Sakaki Makoto added:

"But if the victim is strangled in running water, the deceased usually has no chance to leave obvious signs of struggle. Even if the incontinence caused by suffocation at the moment of death will be washed away by the water flow, and it can also prevent the deceased from struggling to death and leave evidence such as scratches for the criminal."

"Scratches?"

Kid Still a little puzzled:

"Can't you struggle in the water?"

"You can struggle in the river or the sea, but it's different in a flowing hot spring."

Shaking his head, Sakaki Makoto replied:

"There is an outlet in a flowing hot spring. The criminal can wrap the rope around the outlet to form a lever, wrap one end around the neck of the deceased, push her into the water, and then pull the other end of the rope. In this way, you can achieve a non-contact crime."

"This is a premeditated murder. The criminal is an experienced killer and will not leave any traces."

Kid constructed the scene of the murder in his mind. The murderer stood on the edge of the hot spring, holding the rope tightly, watching Takenaka Baihui at the bottom of the pool struggling hard, and finally lost her strength bit by bit, and drowned in front of him.

"This is too cruel."
