Chapter 54: It would be nice if it was suicide
As we all know, there is no "if" in the world. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, there will always be exceptions.
For example, when reasoning, you have to think about things like "ifs".
The truth of the matter, no one except the parties involved, knows.
If you want to know the truth, you must make bold assumptions and carefully verify them.
And "if" is one of the hypotheticals.
What if, if Kazushi Nakamichi knew about the existence of that pistol?
You can even think of it this way: if that pistol was actually brought by Kazushi Nakamichi, then what?
It's not impossible.
Yumi Horikoshi could have been there at that time, and Nakamichi Kazushi could naturally have it.
You know, in the past, Yumi Horikoshi and Kazushi Nakamichi, but lovers, even after graduation, will still be connected.
Even five years ago, their relationship was still very good.
So, it's safe to assume that on that day, they actually made an appointment to meet around there.
Then, I happened to encounter a bank robbery, and I also happened to meet my uncle.
But the uncle only saw Yumi Horikoshi, but not Kazushi Nakamichi.
So, Kazushi Nakamichi, who was not noticed, picked up the pistol.
Then, in the present day, the murder plan is carried out.
If this is the case, then it is clear why Kazushi Nakamichi understood the suspicion that she had died long ago as soon as he saw Yumi Horikoshi who had fallen there.
Because he is the murderer, he naturally knows the life and death of Yumi Horikoshi.
But even if it were, it still can't be explained.
First of all, it can be inferred from the stiffness of the corpse that the time of death was more than three o'clock in the afternoon, but at that time, Kazushi Nakamichi was still in the table tennis room and never left from beginning to end.
Moreover, the motive for the killing is also unclear.
Besides, even if you want to kill someone, why do you want to change out of Yumi Horikoshi's yukata and take off her underwear?
There is no way to explain this.
Unless it's really like Atsushi Omura said, I saw Yumi Horikoshi at five o'clock, and Yumi Horikoshi's time of death was actually after five or even six o'clock.
If that's the case, Nakamichi Kazushi's alibi is gone.
It's just a contradiction.
What's going on?
The uncle frowned, and he didn't even notice that the cigarette in his hand was burned.
Xiaolan noticed this and quickly patted his arm.
"Dad, it's hot."
"Huh? Oh...... Oh, it's fine. ”
The uncle who came back to his senses looked at the cigarette in his hand, and then walked directly to the side and disposed of it.
"Maori, are you alright?"
Nakamichi Kazushi and they also found that the uncle seemed to be absent-minded.
But the uncle didn't say much, just shook his head.
"It's nothing, I'll go to the toilet, you continue."
After saying this, the uncle left here directly to the corridor outside and walked towards the toilet.
Conan took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, and quickly followed.
But the uncle stopped in the hallway.
Seeing this, Conan hurriedly spoke.
"Uncle, this case ......"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's not your turn to intervene in my case!"
The uncle refuted unceremoniously.
Conan's head shrank in this regard, and he didn't dare to continue to speak.
Uncle is not friendly to him, now the uncle is obviously unhappy, if he still doesn't know what to do, it will be light to be beaten.
In fact, the uncle is really in a bad mood now, and he is still a little irritable.
Glancing at Conan, he continued to walk towards the toilet.
I just stopped when I passed by an indoor sculpture in the hallway.
Turning around, I looked at the sculpture that was placed here.
This hot spring inn is called Benkei.
So this sculpture, that is, Benkei, a monk soldier at the end of the neon Heian period, and a retainer of Minamoto Yoshitsune, is one of the traditional representatives of the bushido spirit.
Of course, this uncle doesn't care, bushido or something, and it has nothing to do with him.
This sculpture of Benkei is a sculpture with a lot of arrows inserted into the body, and it is the moment when he died in battle.
It is said that before he died in battle, he fought against many enemy troops, was pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows, and finally died in battle.
Moreover, what makes the uncle concerned is that it is said that Benkei was standing when he died.
Standing death, which is possible and, medically, has also been proven.
When sudden death occurs during strenuous exercise, the proteins in the human muscles are easy to coagulate quickly, so the stiffness time of the corpse is faster than that of the normal death of the corpse.
Therefore, in such a situation, it is indeed easy for people to misjudge.
Because Yumi Horikoshi's body has no sweat stains, and her clothes are not soaked with sweat.
This explains why Yumi Horikoshi's yukata was replaced with a larger one, and why there is no doubt about wearing underwear.
It can also be explained why Jun Omura still saw Yumi Horikoshi's suspicion after five o'clock, because at that time, Yumi Horikoshi was indeed alive, and the real time of death was estimated to be after six o'clock.
As for strenuous exercise......
In this hotel, the only place that can play sports is table tennis.
Moreover, this can also explain why Yumi Horikoshi's finger is not on the trigger, and that gesture is clearly the gesture of holding the racket.
Judging from Xiaolan's situation, the truth of this case is about to come out.
First of all, after six o'clock, everyone went to watch the fireworks, but Kazushi Nakamichi stayed on the grounds that he had returned the racket.
Actually, it was Yumi Horikoshi who was invited to play table tennis, maybe there was something to say between the two of them.
Then, in some cases, let Yumi Horikoshi return to her room after a strenuous workout and shoot her while she was defenseless.
Then start cleaning up, changing clothes, wiping off sweat stains, and so on.
But at this time, Xiaolan and Conan came to call Yumi Horikoshi, so Kazushi Nakamichi, who was inside, could only stop temporarily, leave Yumi's room outside the eaves, and go around to the corridor, stopping Xiaolan and them.
Then with Xiaolan and the others, they went to the scene of the fireworks display.
But he quietly left halfway, rushed back to the hotel, and continued to deal with the aftermath.
However, because the corpse had begun to stiffen, he could not put his finger on the trigger, leaving such an unreasonable place.
Of course, it is also possible that Yukio Ayagi and Noriko Ayajo, who were still staying at the hotel at the time, did it.
However, when the body was first discovered, Nakado Kazushi's words had already exposed him.
If he didn't kill him, why was it just a glance at the door to be sure that Yumi Horikoshi was dead, so let Xiaolan call the police instead of calling an ambulance?
Although the motive is still not understood, the fact that Nakamichi Kazushi is the murderer has been basically determined.
"Damn!"
The uncle gritted his teeth and slammed his fist on the wooden wall, and his face showed a tired look.
He did feel tired, not only physically, but also mentally.
From the very beginning, he struggled to find evidence that could prove that it was not the old classmate who killed the people.
But the more you search, the more certain you are of the fact that he is the murderer.
The old director of the Rice Flower Art Museum, Narumi Asai of Moon Shadow Island, and the current Kazushi Nakamichi.
Tired, really tired.
Why do we have to kill people instead of looking for other solutions?
Obviously, there are other ways.
"If it's really suicide, that's fine."
The uncle sighed secretly.
Although the best, anyone can live to the time of natural death.
But now, I can only sigh: if it is really suicide, it will be good.
Shaking his head, he dragged his tired body and continued to walk towards the toilet.
Conan on the side looked at the uncle, and then at the sculpture of Benkei.
He's not stupid, and he's naturally able to think of that.
Who the murderer is, already, determined.
It's just that he doesn't understand why the uncle would say something like that.
Why do you say things like "if it's really suicide, that's fine"?
