Chapter 167: Dehydration - The Second Thread That Doesn't Need

"Du Kang, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this thing."

Kudo Shinichi has the experience of becoming a child and needling Maori Kogoro, so he habitually looks around at the people present.

was about to start his reasoning, but when his eyes scanned Du Kang's body, he had an idea, thinking of his two previous confrontations with Du Kang, and felt that it was better not to be in a hurry first.

"It's obvious. I'm not going to convince the ministry if it's a secret room trick or not, but it's a wonderful trick. Such a wonderful means, the silk thread used actually let you find it. Hattori, don't you understand? ”

"What did you say?" Hattori looked at the silk thread in Kudo Shinaku's hand, and what Du Kang said, and already understood that he was being shaken.

"The thread in your hand is the failure of your entire technique." Du Kang didn't ask Kudo Shinichi what he thought of, but said what he thought of.

"What?" Hattori Heiji asked in surprise.

And Kudo Shinichi next to him seemed to be accustomed to Du Kang's negative remarks, and as if he was not physically strong, he did not follow up the progress of reasoning.

In Kudo Shinichi's opinion, finding out the second silk thread was enough to negate Hattori's reasoning. It's like a question option, as long as you find a counterexample, you can veto it. And the second thread that Kudo Shinichi thinks he has found is a counterexample to this option.

But listening to the meaning of Du Kang's words, it seems that he doesn't need the appearance of the second line at all, but from the first line in Hattori's hand, he can negate Hattori's own reasoning.

And Heiji Hattori didn't react, what Du Kang said was actually completely different from Kudo Shinichi's logic. I just thought that because Kudo Shinichi had the second silk thread in his hand, he naturally thought that what Du Kang said was actually because of the existence of this second silk thread, so the thread in his hand was a failure.

"If you can really arrange such an elaborate mechanism, then how can you choose materials so randomly?" Du Kang said.

"Du Kang, can you elaborate?" Shinichi Kudo asked.

"You mean, you don't need this thread at all to determine that Hattori's reasoning is wrong. That's what it means. Kudo Shinichi added the reason for his request.

"Yes, Kudo, you're right. There is no need for a second root. Du Kang said.

This kind of thing is like a mortal doing a problem is walking the path of learning the knowledge points and then making the question right. And some of the existence that is beyond the top students is on the road of how to get the question right if they can't. And obviously, Shinichi Kudo is the former, while Du Kang is the latter.

"The biggest loophole is in the selection of silk threads." Du Kang took the silk thread handed over by Kudo Shinichi, looked at it, and said.

"Materials?" Hattori asked puzzled, and Kudo Shinichi next to him didn't speak, listening to Du Kang's words that were completely different from his own thinking.

"I have a little premature suggestion." Du Kang began by saying this, as if he was very low-key.

"If I were the murderer, I would have chosen to use lines to set up the secret room. I don't know what kind of material this silk thread is, but I look at the mechanism you laid out in Pingji, and it shouldn't need any load-bearing.

In that case, wouldn't it be better to use some lines that can be found everywhere? For example, wool yarn, or ordinary sewing thread for clothes is very good.

When the time comes, a lighter will completely wipe out the existence of evidence. Even if you find some traces of wool that has fallen off on the scene, or traces of friction with furniture, but you don't have the whole silk thread, even if you find the same wool on someone's body as the scene, after all, this is a common silk thread, not the kind of silk thread that you hold in your hand that ordinary people will not touch, and it is very easy to find an excuse. ”

When Kudo Shinichi heard Du Kang's words, he instantly understood what Du Kang meant. Indeed, if it is according to its own logic, it is indeed necessary to find a second line to prove its speculation. And using Du Kang's logic, the silk thread in Hattori's hands is the best evidence to disprove Hattori's reasoning.

Although it feels a bit tricky, I have to admit that it is indeed much more clever than my own reasoning.

"Ingenious." Shinichi Kudo commented on Du Kang's hypothetical modus operandi. And the feeling in my heart is indeed as it says.

It's just like proving that the tricolor problem is the result of a large amount of computation in a computer, which is always not pretty. After all, mathematical problems are not only problems of calculation, but more importantly, problems of logic. Arithmetic, that's not math, it's just arithmetic.

In Kudo Shinichi's opinion, his own reasoning is compared to Du Kang's reasoning. Du Kang's reasoning is mathematics, and his own is only arithmetic.

Of course, Kudo Shinichi didn't think there was anything wrong with his reasoning. Reasoning is an accumulation of tedious things, doing things that seem to be very untechnical and unaesthetic. And most of the time, the results are not shocking.

After all, solving the case needs to be progressive, steady and steady. It's like arithmetic. It is not the mathematical whimsy of Du Kang, although it has an extraordinary aesthetic sense, but it is not applicable and practical. After all, even if it is an e-commerce activity, there will be no need for log or anything.

In fact, it's not just Du Kang who said, changing the thread can achieve the perfect crime.

Even, the line held by Hattori Heiji himself can be easily hidden. The room is so big, put it in a hidden place, how can it not be found at once, and it is reminiscent. Even, the silk thread held in Hattori's hands may not be a thread that is not afraid of fire.

In other words, being able to find it easily shows that you are not afraid to find it. Or take it a step further and induce you to find out.

And the reason why Du Kang vaguely guessed this thread in Hattori's hands as a special thread that may not be afraid of fire without verification is also to leave a face for Hattori Heiji. It's like calling the emergency team yourself, so as not to give people the impression that Hattori Heiji, a high school detective, is very self-righteous, so leave a staircase, and you don't even have to say anything, just let you go down like this.

Or rather, patch your reasoning. It is not a crime of war, it is not that there is a mistake in reasoning, but that the murderer is too cunning.

"So, let me tell you who the murderer is. Du Kang, I thought, since you don't want to say it, then I'll be the bad guy. Kudo Shinichi sighed in his heart, and after a pause, he said, "After all, there is always only one truth of the matter." ”

"It's your freedom, though." Du Kang said this as if he were a picture of "I don't agree with you, but I will defend your right to speak to the death."

"Still, I think it's better not to say it."

"Du Kang. I think it's better to say it. Mori Kogoro, who had been silent and looked like he was thinking about something, spoke, "You have your opinion, but it's still ......."

Mori Kogoro didn't go any further, but the meaning was obvious.

Based on Mori Kogoro's experience and life experience, on the question of whether to say or not to say, Mori Kogoro stands on the same position as Kudo Shinichi.

"Even if it's a tragedy." Du Kang looked at Maori Kogoro's eyes, "Even if the end result is the destruction of good things." ”

"No, there's already a tragedy here." As if it suddenly occurred to him that there was a man who had died, Du Kang said, "If it does, it may be a greater tragedy." ”

"I think that if you don't say it, it can be a greater tragedy." Kudo Shinichi interjected, looking like he was in a hurry, looking like "time is running out for Kudo Shinichi".

"Sir, I think, you should also know who the murderer is." Shinichi Kudo walked up to the father of the diplomat who had "already pleaded guilty" and said so.

"There are no other murderers. I killed my son. The diplomat's father said slowly.

It's like some leader who has been to Munich in a certain year - I have brought peace to a whole generation, he has no other needs, he just wants this.

The diplomat's father said in a tone that sounded like a pleading. Hopefully, that's all the truth to come.

"Ahem~~Ahem~~~~" I don't know if I want to interject or if I'm not feeling well, Kudo Shinichi coughed dryly.

Knowing that he is Du Kang of Edogawa Conan, he naturally knows what is going on.

"You're tired, do you want to rest?" Du Kang seems to still be unwilling to let Kudo Shinichi tell the truth, and he is like a left-and-right person.

"It's okay, I've been busy with a case these days and haven't eaten." As if to dispel Du Kang's suspicions about his weak state, Kudo Shinichi used a common phenomenon when a policeman and detective investigated a case to explain his weak physical state.

"Well, you wait." Du Kang heard Kudo Shinichi's excuse, felt in his pocket, and pulled out a stick-like object. Hand it to Shinichi Kudo.
