Chapter 499: The Last Ring Counterattack

Between ceremonies, the red carpet was rolled up, and the secret door opened to reveal a staircase leading to the basement, where seeping groundwater could be seen submerging the steps.

Huo Xixiao lay upside down on the steps, his head submerged in the groundwater.

At first, the group searched the villa, but found a cursed doll that had been placed upside down in a sink by the courtyard, exactly the same condition as Huo Xixiao.

Gao Cheng stood behind everyone with his hands in his hands, Huo Xixiao's young wife had already cried into tears, and Huo Xi Xingzi, the only survivor of the Huo Xi family, was also so sad that he knelt on the floor, and Kentaro Izawa was sweating with anxiety while comforting him.

The third murder, is it over?

Gao Cheng's gaze calmly swept over everyone at the scene.

Huo Xi Xiao's wife, Huo Xi Xingzi...... The biggest beneficiary is the fire worship star, there is no doubt that the adoptive father and brothers were killed, and the entire fire worship family almost fell into the hands of the fire worship star.

"Officer," a police officer reported to Officer Mayan during the ceremony, "I didn't find the Black Melon Ghost Gate, and the people who lived nearby said that when Huo Xixiao disappeared, there happened to be a taxi driving away, and it should be the last Shinkansen to go back to Tokyo, and they have already contacted the Tokyo side, and they will be responsible for finding someone......"

The horse-faced officer frowned: "Leave at this time, that guy should have nothing to do with the case, is he the murderer?" ”

"His alibi is quite sufficient," the officer shook his head and pulled out an envelope, "but we found this in his room, it seems to have been reserved for the Joto detectives,"

"Leave it to me?"

Gao Cheng took the envelope and did see the words left on it in strange handwriting.

"To Detective Joto......"

"I've sown the seeds to achieve the perfect artistic crime by my puppet, good Luck, Detective Jun ......"

Gao Cheng silently read the note in the envelope and handed it to the horse-faced police officer next to him.

His feeling was right, Gao Yuanyao really intervened in this incident, and specially found a stand-in to attract his attention.

The horse-faced officer looked at Gao Cheng, didn't ask more, turned to the people around him and asked, "That is, everyone knows about this basement?" ”

Secretary Kaizaki nodded, "Yes, everyone who has been to this grape house, from maids to electrical appliance stores, knows about it. ”

"Ah, that's a problem......"

"Officer," Gao Cheng said suddenly, "Let's take a look at the surveillance footage, there may be clues that have been missed......"

"Okay."

The horse-faced officer looked at Gao Cheng with some curiosity.

At first, I heard some rumors about this famous Tokyo detective.,But the real interest was through the introduction of Yamato Dasuke.,It's a young detective who looks ordinary.,But at the critical moment, it's amazing.。

I heard that he developed a detective agency on the verge of bankruptcy alone, and he has a lot of popularity in the Metropolitan Police Department, and has even participated in several joint police operations, and has dealt with many high-IQ criminals, and finally caught all the murderers, and has the title of "Kid Buster".

……

In the monitoring room, Gao Cheng took Xiaoqiao and Jing Ze to sit in front of the computer and found the surveillance video between the ceremonies during the time period when Huo Xixiao was killed.

The murderer cautiously closed the curtains and did not give the surveillance any chance, only a hand pulling the curtain could be seen.

Kenmi Kohashi stared at the picture tightly: "The magic lantern is not turned on, and I can't see the movement inside at all...... The murderer must have put the curtains first, and then moved the stunned President Xiao to the room, and finally pushed him to the underground stairs to drown President Xiao, and if only one hand was exposed, it would be difficult to know who the murderer was......"

"Beep!" Before Xiaoqiao finished speaking, the monitoring was suddenly interrupted and the picture was lost.

"It's strange," Kentaro Izawa helped switch the picture, frowning, "It may have been a malfunction before, the cameras here are all very early models, and it is easy to have problems in thunderstorms, but even if it is not broken, it can't shoot anything." ”

"No way," Officer Horseface said disappointedly, "The murderer is too careful, let's get here today......"

"That," the maid Koizumi stood outside the door without saying anything, "is today's tea party going to continue?" ”

The horse-faced officer shook his head: "After so many things happened, that black melon is gone again, I see ......"

"Let's go ahead with the tea party, officer," Gao Cheng interrupted, "and the investigation of Miss Xingzi should have results by then......"

Jing Ze clenched his fists and looked at Gao Cheng: "Chenghu senior, do you still think Xingzi is the murderer?" ”

"Don't worry, I just want to have a good talk with Miss Xingzi," Gao Cheng patted Jing Ze on the shoulder, "If she wasn't the murderer, I would never have wronged her." ”

"But ......"

"That's it," Officer Ma Yan said cautiously, "Miss Xingzi's side, our police are only conducting an investigation in secret, and this is also for Miss Xingzi's good, after all, the people who were killed are all members of the fire family, and the investigation can protect Miss Xingzi." ”

Everyone walked out of the monitoring room one after another, and Kentaro Izawa could only loosen his fist weakly, nodded at Gao Cheng, who was still sitting in front of the monitoring screen, and left with a sigh.

"I'm going to see the ...... of the stars"

"If you can, don't talk about the police investigation."

"Well, I don't want to make Xingzi sad either." Kentaro Izawa's face was gloomy, but when he turned around, a chuckle appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Now no matter how much investigation is in vain, the so-called detectives will become an important tool in multiple methods......

Gao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and calmly watched Jing Ze walk out of the monitoring room.

Gao Yuanyao said that this case was a perfect crime, but there could be no absolute perfect crime in this world, it was just a matter of whether you could find the flaws.

If there is anything else he ignores, it is that this Kentaro Izawa who came to him, although it is an intermediate relationship through Kobashi, it is too much of a coincidence, and because of this relationship, he subconsciously ignores the possibility of Izawa committing a crime.

In the face of the terrifying high IQ, we must break the inherent thinking and not be influenced by preconceived judgments......

Returning to the surveillance screen, Gao Cheng once again called up the surveillance when Jiuyao was killed last night.

There is no problem with the time period of death of the fire worship Jiuyao, it should be some time before the tea party starts, and the remaining problem is the layout of the murder scene, if it is in the time period when the magic lamp is extinguished, then the only person who may commit the crime is the fire worship star......

Gao Cheng crossed his fingers and continued to fast-forward to check the surveillance footage, and when the time advanced to nearly 3 o'clock in the morning, he pressed pause and rechecked it backwards.

It is true that the magic lantern has never been extinguished again, but at about 2:46 in the morning, the lights flickered twice in succession between the ceremonies, and it looked very obvious when it was lowered slowly.

What tricks did the murderer use to not unplug the magic lamp when arranging the murder scene......

Gao Cheng's gaze was fixed, so that everyone's alibi was not valid.

Found a flaw!

The murderer's next target, the final link of the perfect crime, is the fire worship star.
