Chapter Twenty-Five: The Mystery? (Re-Medium)

"Where did you just go? Oh yes, you met that guy too, and ...... According to the rules, you should also get a kill item, and you want ...... Like I said——— a jar of liquid nitrogen. ”

"And when you get the liquid nitrogen, you hurry to Sherlock's room again, at this time, Shinichi is still dealing with Sherlock's corpse, but I guess he can't just start dismembering the body in Sherlock's living room like before, after all, it was past midnight, Shinichi used the previous method again, maybe it would be too late, and I think Shinichi was not too embarrassed to cut the body naked in front of you. It's not questioning your age and age, it's just that it's acceptable to do something like [naked dismemberment], but it will definitely be a little embarrassing to do it in front of an old lady. ”

"So, I guess Shinichi will put the body in the bathtub, puncture the carotid artery, bleed, and let the blood flow down the drain, which won't take much time, because the body has just died, the blood pressure has not completely dropped, and the amount of bleeding from a large rupture of the artery is enough to squirt more than 70% of the blood in the human body in a few minutes. At this time, Sherlock's corpse was frozen and then in a [very brittle] form. ”

"And the method of freezing is very simple...... Remember when Shinichi Kudo's body was set on fire, I went to find a trash can to fill it with water? Actually, at that time, the first thing I entered was Sherlock's room, but it was very strange that there was no trash can in Sherlock's room, I was very strange at the time, but now I understand, because the trash can in Sherlock's room was used by you, and your method was to stick a small hole in the bottom of the trash can with a knife, and then ...... You pour liquid nitrogen into the trash can, let it form a 'funnel', and slowly and evenly pour it on Sherlock, after all, liquid nitrogen is such a thing, as long as it gets on the skin, it may be frostbitten, so it is safer, and after that, the liquid nitrogen also flows into the sewer, I guess, there are ice crystals in the sewer that have not completely melted. Oh, and as for that bucket with liquid nitrogen....... Plastic hardens at minus 40 degrees Celsius and becomes as brittle as porcelain, and I guess it's already a scrap of plastic by now. ”

"Heh, it's all theories, there's no evidence at all, what about the plastic pieces, did you let me eat them?" Marple said with a smile.

"Oh, my words may have misled you, being broken is certainly not the final destination of that trash can." As he spoke, Ziliang took out a small piece of small flakes from his pocket that seemed to have been burned: "This thing was found next to the Christmas tree when I was checking Shinichi's corpse, so you ended up burning the trash can, I guess you think, anyway, the Christmas tree is full of decorations, even if someone finds a small piece of plastic, it doesn't matter." ”

"But ......"

"Okay, I know you're trying to say that it's not proof, but there's always evidence, so please don't interrupt me." Ziliang continued: "And after Sherlock was quick-frozen, Kudo Shinichi began to smash open his body, which is not difficult for a young and strong high school student, as for the tool, I think it should be something on the dining table, even if you can't find a suitable one, it is enough for you to frostbite on the spot, anyway, those things will disappear afterwards." ”

"And after that, it's what I said before, 'a collection of murder methods', the two of you first stuff a balloon into Sherlock's clothes, and disguise that it's a body, oh, don't ask me how my clothes are intact, when I split the body, no one can chop it up with the clothes, so at that time, the new morning stripped off Sherlock's clothes, and after that, you put his head on the 'fake body', so that a very light weight' Sherlock's production is complete, and finally, you follow the example of the previous death of [Kanedaichi] and suspend Sherlock's body in mid-air and fix it with a thread, so that if you break the thread, or simply wait for the flame to burn, when the thread is burned, Sherlock's body will be taken from the sky. ”

"And because of the low weight of his body, when we saw the way he came down, we had a weird feeling of 'this guy is flying'! As for why he disappeared suddenly, it would be better explained, as long as you dragged the rope in your hand and wrapped it around the fence on the second floor, because the lights flickered at that time, and the flames suddenly ignited, even a person with good eyesight would not be able to notice your abnormality in that situation, so you just need to keep dragging, not to mention how heavy your head can be. ”

"And when our eyes are drawn to the flames, and when we look up to the sky, look for Sherlock, and then run back to find something to fill the water, you're in the shadows, and you pop the balloon, and then you put your clothes under the blanket that covers your legs, and that's it, and that's it, I thought Sherlock was still alive, and who would go through an old lady's blanket, right?"

"Okay, okay, please forgive me for having to interrupt you again." Mrs. Marple said, "But I have found a loophole in your words, and that is that if you look for a container of water, you will first go to Sherlock's room...... So where is his body? You say that Sherlock's body is disguised with balloons, so what about the rest of his body? ”

"Under your wheelchair!"

"What...... What the? ”

"Don't be so surprised, it's just under your wheelchair, usually there is a small space under your wheelchair, which is usually used to put some bags, or vegetable baskets and the like when you walk in the morning, I also saw it, and yours does have ...... I remember that when Sherlock disappeared, I felt a cold breath, but at that time, there was a raging flame burning next to me, how could there be a cold breath, but I thought I was frightened...... Now that I think about it, I realize that it was the temperature of the frozen corpse, because, at that time, Sherlock's corpse was right next to us, and even when wrapped in a tablecloth, we could still feel the cold. ”

"Whew-" Marple exhaled heavily: "Young people nowadays, the brain hole is really too big. As she spoke, she pointed to Sherlock's corpse, which was still on the table, "If Sherlock's body hadn't been left intact here, I'd have thought everything you said was true......
