Chapter Twenty-Nine: The so-called murder is not a good case
It's just that this trap requires a specific time, place, and person to be activated. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Officer Sato, can you tell me when the figures of Mr. Okubo and Mr. Higashino disappeared on the monitor?"
"Twelve, thirteen. Miwako Sato rolled up her sleeves, looked at the time shown on it, and answered honestly.
"Then, at that time, Miss Zhuxing, you must have returned to the park and waited?"
"Yes. Akemi Miyano nodded affirmatively, tried to think about it for a while, and then said, "Because the sun was a little shining, I walked under this tree and rested against the trunk, but I didn't see Mr. Higashino at that time." ā
"Can you please demonstrate what you did at that time?"
"Yes. Akemi Miyano agreed very happily, walked straight over, and found the right side to lean, "For me at that time, the shade of the trees here was the best way to enjoy the shade, and it was the east wind at noon, so I found a tree trunk to lean on the right side." ā
Since Kurosawa Silver leans against the north side of the tree trunk, Akemi Miyano doesn't have to worry about Kurosawa Silver getting in the way of herself, performing tasks, repeating the past, these behaviors are also done neatly, and the posture is similar to when she waited at noon.
"Wait a minute!" Ohbo's pupils suddenly shrank, and he began to get excited again, "She wasn't there at all! I was standing at about the same angle as I was standing now, but I didn't see the corner of her clothes at all, let alone the figure!"
"Mr. Okubo, you're kidding, I was standing here at the time, and I didn't move. Hearing Okubo's words, Akemi Miyano couldn't help frowning slightly, couldn't help but step out of the shadows, turned around, and looked slightly dissatisfied, "How could you not see me?"
"But I just didn't see you!" Okubo is now working hard to keep himself from being regarded as a murderer, and he wants to tell everything he knows so that the police can solve the case faster, which is not unexciting.
"That's enough, don't argue. Sato scolded, "Listen to what Kurosawa has to say, right?"
The magic of this sentence really made Okubo and Akemi Miyano quiet down at the same time and look at Kurosawa Gin.
Kurosawa Gin's back took a deep breath, sorted out his emotions, and after pondering for a while, he opened his mouth to deduce: "You are all used by the real murderer. ā
"W-What?" Okubo's eyes widened in astonishment, pointing back at himself, "IāI'm being used?"
Kurosawa ...... Mr. Akemi Miyano didn't know why she looked over, "So, what the hell is going on?"
"On the face of the deceased, there were some sparkling crystals, which may have been the lenses of glasses, or perhaps they were simple mirror fragments. Gray Yuan sighed lightly, "Miss Zhuxing, your instinctive behavior of hiding in the shade of a tree for fear of your skin being burned by the scorching sun has been calculated by the murderer. ā
Before she said the following, she had to praise the planner's whimsy.
Being able to turn this whimsy into a modus operandi can be said to be a wonderful fantasy.
The estimation of Akemi Miyano's actions was accurate and determined that she would walk to the trunk of the tree on the right to perch, the estimation of Okubo's actions was accurate and he would be provoked by the deceased and followed him as a witness, and the estimation of Kotaro Higashino's actions was accurate and determined that he would be attacked by Okubo while walking towards the trunk of the tree where Akemi Miyano was staying.
Of course, it is better to say that it is a coincidence, or it is better to say that it is deliberately premeditated.
"Miss Zhuxing, I know that there are two people who have gone to wait under this tree. At this time, a childish voice that did not belong to Kurosawa Gin, accompanied by panting, took over the words of Gray Plains, and everyone looked sideways, and saw Conan, who had disappeared without a trace, and Wataru Takagi reappeared in front of everyone.
"The first is the real murderer. Conan ignored the stares that were being cast at him and held up a finger, "This guy knows you're going to go to the trees to hide from the sun." ā
When he raised the second finger, he answered: "The second one is Mr. Higashino, who was invited by the murderer by phone, otherwise, it would not be possible to explain the reason why he came out in such a strange costume, nor the fact that he only came to the tree when he reached it." ā
"Sato-san, we're back. Officer Takagi also straightened up and saluted Sato, "We have prepared the props to recreate the murder scene as Mr. Kurosawa said, can we start recreating the scene now?"
"Then hurry. Sato urged, "I can't wait to see the truth of the case." ā
"Please prepare. Gray Yuan also said lightly, "It's troublesome, I think it's more convincing to actually practice it than to talk about it on paper." ā
After getting the consent of the two and the approval of everyone, Wataru Takagi and Conan began to act according to the original plan.
However, since they couldn't destroy the big tree that was closely related to the case, Wataru Takagi and Conan found a nearby tree to make an action.
Takagi wabu turned over to the trunk of the tree, snapped a cylinder with a surface area radius of 10 centimeters and a height of 3 centimeters onto the bifurcated trunk two meters above the ground as the central axis, and then firmly inserted a strong rope into the gap between the central shaft, and tied a weight to one end to make a simple fixed pulley.
As long as you prepare a large stone, wrap it around it with a rope, and make sure that the rope will not fall off, and then get the stone stuck on the branch fork above the lawn, and cut part of the diameter of the branch from the lower end, and confirm that the stone will not fall for the time being.
At the other end, where there is no weight, a slipknot is tied at a certain distance from the end of the rope, the rope passes through the loop and goes around the rope below, and then passes through the loop again, and finally, the front end of the rope is fixed and the pin is used to stabilize it on the trunk of the tree, and a ring with a radius of 20 centimeters is constructed on the ground.
It is appropriate to add fallen leaves or dead grass to the loops made of knots as a cover, so as not to be seen by others.
This was a tool for hanging the victim from a tree.
If you want to disembowel the victim while hanging it, you need another design.
The trap is completed by placing a dagger hanging horizontally from the edge of the knife at a height of twenty centimeters parallel to the central axis, the handle wrapped around the hollow of the fountain, and then pulled back from mid-air around the depression of the fountain, past the treetops at the top of the canopy, and fixed downwards to the large stone weight.
Of course, at this point, it is only the completion of the trap, and as for the trick - that is, the way to hide the whereabouts of Akemi Miyano, has not yet been set.
It's not a big project.
Here, the image is a concave mirror.
It doesn't need to be big, but it can't be too small, the mirror that needs to be prepared for this experiment has a radius of about 20 centimeters, hidden at a height of about 1.7 meters above the ground, hidden in the canopy, with the mirror facing downwards and facing the right.
It's all about to be done. (To be continued.) )
