Chapter 89: Investigation of Clues
In the night, the flames of the car explosion under the cliff had been extinguished, and only thick smoke billowed out.
Gao Cheng saw Conan squatting beside the tire tracks to check, and hurriedly approached and asked, "Did you find any problems?" ”
There is no way to investigate the car and the body, and now I can only ask Conan, one of the witnesses.
Conan intently checked the road conditions and said, "Before the car fell, there was a strange sound similar to the sound of the wind, not the sound of the engine...... But I couldn't find ......."
"Strange sound ......"
Gao Cheng took a closer look at the tire marks, although he didn't have a car, he had two years of car driving experience, and he knew a little about it.
"Are there anything else strange?"
"If there's one thing weird, it's the blanket on the dashboard." Conan recalled.
"Blanket?"
Gao Cheng didn't believe that the boss of Jingu committed suicide, and no one would deliberately cover the dashboard with a blanket if he drove a suicide.
However, if it wasn't for suicide, the sudden acceleration of the car was really inexplicable, and I don't know what kind of tricks the murderer used.
"What was the appearance of Boss Kanaya at that time?" Gao Cheng continued to ask, he must know more details so that he can simulate the scene for reasoning and deduction, since there are witnesses like Conan who has a strong instantaneous memory, it is too wasteful not to ask carefully.
"We only caught up when we saw the car driving towards the cliff......"
Conan had no idea of winning, and seeing that Gao Cheng was interested in the details, he was also curious to retell the details, after all, Gao Cheng's reasoning method he had seen and could complement him.
"At that time, the boss of Jingu was holding the steering wheel, so he shouldn't be unconscious, I think it may have been killed by someone beforehand, and the body kept stiff."
Gao Cheng took a deep breath, his gaze swept over the crowd on the side, and his gaze was stern: "Anyway, the murderer is one of us, this should be true, I will definitely find out the murderer!" ”
"Okay," Uncle Maori couldn't find any clue, and said helplessly, "Anyway, the body can't be recovered, let's call the police first and wait in the house." ”
"But the phone was taken away by the boss......"
"The phone is all in the boss's room!" The waitress explained.
Gao Cheng followed everyone back to the hotel.
In addition to him and Conan, there were a total of 7 people present, including the waitress.
The glasses man and the woman are accompanied by two college students, Kento Tojuto and Ayako Oki, in addition to Mr. Fujisawa, a middle-aged man who is a station attendant, Nanako Shimizu, who is a librarian, Ikuo Kawazu, a high school physical education teacher, Maria Toda, a chubby female astrologer, and finally Hitomi Iwai, a waitress.
Among these people, the glasses man Token and Oki Ayako, as well as the waitress stayed in the restaurant with Conan at the time of the crime, and there is an alibi and an eyewitness, but it is not impossible to commit the crime.
After all, the murderer may also deliberately create an alibi......
"The phone is all broken!" In the room of the boss of Jingu, when everyone came to find it, the room was messy, and the floor was full of pieces of mobile phone calls.
"Damn! Who did it? ”
"The original book is gone!" The waitress said anxiously, the safe next to the cabinet was open, it was empty, and the valuable books were nowhere to be found.
Gao Cheng didn't care about the first edition of the book, looking at his damaged mobile phone, the corners of his eyes jumped.
He just changed to a phone that is not cheap some time ago......
"I've also checked the rest of the car in the garage," Gao Cheng forced down the feeling of pain and explained to everyone, "It has been made by someone to start it, and even the oil in the fuel tank is leaking...... Looks like someone is trying to trap us here. ”
"How so?" The faces of the people turned pale.
"Hmph," the glasses man Toshiyan laughed, "As I expected, someone murdered the boss, and maybe he will continue to kill people!" Isn't that right, Maori detective? ”
Uncle Maori felt that the man with glasses was more hateful than Gao Cheng, so he snorted dissatisfiedly, and stood up and said: "Anyway, since the murderer is among us, as long as we investigate carefully, who was the last person to see the boss of Jingu, can you please tell me?" ”
"Didn't we last see the boss the night before yesterday? After that, everyone went back to their rooms to write the quiz. ”
"I haven't seen my boss since last night." The waitress shook her head as well.
"Huh?" Uncle Maori was stunned and said, "Aren't you responsible for the boss's meal?" Why don't you say that the boss is gone? ”
The waitress said aggrievedly: "But the boss has been on a diet recently, and he eats healthy food in his room......"
"Damn, so I don't know my whereabouts all day, and I don't even know when I was killed!"
Several Sherlock Holmes fans are talking: "What ...... might be captured on the surveillance camera"
"I'm sorry," the waitress had to pour cold water, "the camera is fake, it's the fake machine that is installed every year when this event is held." ”
Gao Cheng stood silently to the side, the last time he saw the boss was around ten o'clock the night before, according to Conan's instructions, the car drove from the warehouse to the cliff, and the departure time was around half past three in the morning.
The death of the owner of Kanaya was within this time......
Gao Cheng held his chin.
The two medical cards drawn before were mainly detectives, so he had a little understanding of what happens after death.
In general, the body begins to stiffen within 30 minutes to 2 hours after death, after 9 to 12 hours, after 30 hours, then gradually softens, and returns to its original state after about 70 hours.
If Conan's observation was correct, the manager who was sitting in the car at the time was completely stiff, and he should have been killed 9 to 12 hours ago, before last night's meal......
"Great Detective," Ayako Oki suddenly approached Gao Cheng's side and asked, "Did you find any traces of the air conditioner just now?" Did you find anything? ”
Gao Cheng looked back and saw the sexy Ayako Oki, and took a step back awkwardly: "No, no, nothing was found." ”
"Really?" Ayako Oki snorted and laughed when she heard this, lit a cigarette with a lighter, and said confidently, "I already know who the murderer is, and about the methods he used...... I also have conclusive evidence! ”
"What did you say?" Everyone looked at this well-dressed female college student in surprise.
"You already know?"
"I'll give you 10 minutes" Ayako Oki walked out of the room with a puff of smoke and looked back meaningfully, "If you don't want me to say your name, you'd better confess your guilt first!" ”
"Ayako, where are you going?" The glasses man said urgently.
"Go to the bathroom."
"Mess around, you will be ...... by the murderer if you act alone"
"Hmph, you're supposed to protect me, right?" Ayako Oki said disapprerovingly.
The man with glasses hurriedly chased Ayako Oki out of the room, and Gao Cheng was speechless for a while.
Since you know the murderer, you can't just say it, so it's a trick, and it looks like you're about to be killed.
