Chapter 183: The True Identity of the Corpse
Although Mori Kogoro, who heard Hattori's inquiry, was a little unhappy with the attitude of this Osaka imp meddling in the case, but thinking of the hospitality of the previous trip to Osaka, Mori Kogoro still opened his mouth to explain.
"Hmmm! That's right! When I came here with Officer Ishizaki to look for Ye Caisan, I was covered with a plastic sheet with an emergency escape ladder written on it! ”
"And then? Have you opened it to see? ”
"Nope! Because it was tied with rope, we felt that there should be no hiding people inside! Anyway, there wasn't anyone in the box at the time! Because I gave up looking for Ye Caisan, when I returned to the restaurant, Mr. Xiejiang was still there! ”
"Really?"
Hattori Heiji, who heard Mori Kogoro's explanation, lowered his head and pondered, but Officer Samezaki on the side looked at Mori Kogoro and was a little dissatisfied with Hattori's all-knowing appearance.
"Maori! Who is this young man? ”
"Ahh Officer Samezaki! His name is Heiji Hattori, and he is the son of the head of the Osaka Police Department......"
Ignoring the muttering of Mori Kogoro and Officer Ishizaki on the side, Yuichi, who saw Hattori enter a contemplative state, glanced at the expressions of the people around him and slowly squatted in front of the corpse.
In order to solve the mystery of all this, it is first necessary to know who this charred corpse is, and although Mori Kogoro has some truth in what they say, Nagisa Isobei's speculation is not as ignorant as Hattori refutes.
It is true that a person who has been burned by fire will be in this boxing form, but doesn't this corpse feel a little too bent? Maybe this corpse was really bent up and hidden here in advance, but if it was really hidden here in advance, then the identity of this corpse can only be that.
Thinking of this, Yuichi slowly turned on the detective system that he hadn't used for a while, although Yuichi put himself aside for a long time, but as an auxiliary system, the detective system did not express his dissatisfaction with Yuichi. Instead, after scanning the corpse relentlessly, he showed the clues he had collected in Yuichi's mind.
Deceased: Teruyoshi Kameda, Cause of Death: Shooting, Location: Machine Room, Condition of the Body: Charted, Motive for Crime: Murder, Facial Expression: Struggle.
"Sure enough, it's Teruyoshi Kameda? But I have no way to prove it to you on this ship, it seems that these clues can only be collected secretly first! Moreover, the first scene of the crime was actually the computer room, which is an important news, and other clues seem to be useless at present! It's really bad luck this time.,It can't be intentional by the system, right? ”
Yuichi, who got the prompt from the system, secretly analyzed and complained in his heart, and Conan, who was standing next to him, saw that Mori Kogoro didn't notice him, and quietly squatted next to the corpse to check it.
"There seems to be something strange on the corpse's face, let me see what it is! Hey? It's actually Silicona? If you look at it this way, did the deceased have plastic surgery before his death? ”
Conan, who had made a new discovery, glanced at Yuichi, who was contemplating beside him, and then shifted his gaze to Heiji Hattori on the side.
"Brother Heiji! Come and see! What is it? ”
Heiji Hattori, who got Conan's prompt, also discovered these silicones, twisted them a little and rubbed them on his fingers, and after looking at Conan, he secretly analyzed them with Conan.
"The deceased, judging by his physical appearance, was definitely male! However, men generally do not go for plastic surgery unless they have had any major damage to their faces! In other words, if this body had not suffered any previous injuries, it was something that he deliberately concealed through plastic surgery! If you look at the strange situation on this ship today, the dead body is likely to be related to the bank robbery twenty years ago! And if it is assumed that this corpse is Kanie Ishisa, then Teruyoshi Kameda, who was close to him before, is another person in their robbery gang! Coupled with the strange performance of Tadao Whalei after seeing that strange 10,000 yuan bill on the deck before! I think that in addition to Ye Caisan, who is still unknown, the three people who robbed the bank back then have been gathered! ”
"That's right! If you look at it this way, you can understand what you said on the banknote just now! The shadow refers to the shadow planner Ye Caisan, and the resurrection refers to the fact that he was once assassinated somewhere. The old man who disappeared mysteriously may be Ye Caisan who came back to seek revenge, and for more information, we should have a good talk with Mr. Tadao Whalei, right? ”
Just as Conan and Hattori deduced new clues based on Silicone, Yuichi, who had thoroughly digested the information provided by the system, also stood up.
Since the deceased is Teruyoshi Kameda who has not appeared since he disappeared from the restaurant before, then everything on the deck just now cannot be him, if Ye Caisan is ruled out first, it is the other people who gathered in the restaurant to eat at that time who had the time to commit the crime. At present, it seems that Xiejiang, who was inseparable from him after getting on the boat, is the most suspicious for a long time, but now there is such a big commotion on the ship, and Xiejiang has not appeared for a long time. Did he really kill Teruyoshi Kameda and disguise him as himself, or was he killed too! The killer disguised Teruyoshi Kameda as him.
In the first case, what was his purpose in disguising Teruyoshi Kameda as himself? Did you make others think he had been killed? But if it's the second case, what is the purpose of the murderer disguising Teruyoshi Kameda as him? Could it be that the murderer has other arrangements for his appearance?
But no matter what, Teruyoshi Kameda, who holds the seal of the bank robbery money, is dead, and Kanie Shiki, who holds the key, has been missing for a long time, so the whale that is still in the crowd now seems a little suspicious, whether he killed it to swallow the money alone or Ye Caisan, who was cheated by them, really came back to take revenge, but if it was revenge, why did they have to pick such a time when they were about to escape from the law? Perhaps there is something special to be gained from the scene of the first murder in this homicide.
Yuichi, who had some basic judgments about this case in his heart, did not stop here and hesitate any longer, turned around and walked towards the cabin, before the murderer was completely revealed, he had to accompany them to play this scene well. If you go directly to the computer room like this, you may be startled.
Conan and Hattori, who saw Yuichi leaving, also stood up and prepared to follow him, but they couldn't help but stand in place after thinking of what they had just discovered. After all, as the top detectives of the island country, they have been holding their breath in their hearts, isn't this an opportunity to prove that they are better than Youyi? Maybe before Yuichi found anything, they had pulled everything they wanted out of Taruo Whalei's mouth.
So in this way, Conan and Hattori, who were originally with Yuichi, together with Mori Kogoro and Officer Ishizaki, disposed of the body and returned to the restaurant with Tadao Whalei and the others, who had just behaved strangely. There are some things that you have to ask these passengers.
