"Huh?"

Deeply puzzled, Officer Shiratori showed some disbelief on his face for Gao Yuan's determination to say such a judgment, as a police officer who had contact with Gao Yuan for the first time, he had his own pride as a policeman, Officer Shiratori asked with some seriousness:

"Why? The people who attacked the murderer this time were all people close to Mr. Maori, and it was obvious that he had a grudge against Mr. Maori, and he also deliberately used playing cards as a hint to indicate who he was going to attack. Combined with these characteristics, Murakami is very in line with the characteristics of this murderer! ”

On the other hand, Miwako Sato and Yumi Miyamoto have more curiosity on their faces.

In this regard, in the face of Officer Shiratori's questioning, Gao Yuan thought about it, and felt that what he said just now was not rigorous enough, after all, it can now be determined that this incident is not exactly the original plot that he is familiar with, so if you only infer it based on clues, it should be certain that it is-

"At least, even if Murakami Sho may be the murderer this time, it will never be possible for him to do it alone."

After a careful wording, Gao Yuan said, and explained further:

"This time, the murderer completed three successful attacks in one day, and the second time he poisoned Lawyer Concubine with chocolate, he used Lawyer Concubine's favorite chocolate. From this point of view, the murderer obviously knows a lot about the people around Mr. Maori! ”

"yes, what's wrong with that?"

Officer Shiratori asked.

"That's the problem."

Gao Yuan said seriously:

"Officer Shiratori, you also said that Murakami was only released from prison last week, but it was only a few days since yesterday's attack, how can Murakami find out who is next to Mr. Mori? Even if in a short period of time, Murakami can find all the targets that meet the implied characteristics of playing cards from people he knows, but the matter of chocolate that lawyer Fei likes is definitely not something that can be known easily!

"Even if we have known Mr. Maori and them for so long, if it weren't for this incident, we wouldn't know what kind of chocolate Lawyer Fei likes to eat, not to mention that the murderer can still seize the time and make sure that the chocolate is sent over, Lawyer Concubine will definitely eat it! It is impossible for Murakami Zhang, who has been serving his sentence in prison before, to know these things! ”

Saying this, this successive analysis couldn't help but make Officer Shiratori shaken a little, and Miwako Sato on the side was a little accustomed to this, holding her hands in front of her, and glancing at Officer Shiratori, who had only recently been transferred and had not had much contact with Takato.

As for Yumi Miyamoto, she just looked at Takato's serious appearance with a smile on her face.

After analyzing the above content, Gao Yuan began to conclude:

"So I think either the murderer is not Murakami at all, or ...... There are still people behind Murakami's boss who are giving him advice! ”

And no matter which way it is said, it means that this murderer can never be as simple as the Murakami uncle who was released from prison last week mentioned by the police.

And, one more point -

"Moreover, it is not entirely certain whether this murderer is here for Mr. Maori......

Following this topic, Gao Yuan continued to analyze:

"I, Lawyer Concubine, Officer Twilight, so far, we who have been attacked by the other party are indeed people whom Mr. Mori knows, but then again, the people who know the three of us at the same time are actually not the only ones who know Mr. Mori!"

When he said this, Takato couldn't help but think that even in the plot of the original work, the murderer chose to use playing cards as a hint in order to take revenge on Mori Kogoro, and the idea of attacking the person corresponding to the playing cards next to Mori Kogoro one after another is wrong.

In fact, the hint of the so-called playing cards is actually a misleading one, in the original work, the murderer really wants to kill only a few people, but it just so happens that the names of the people these murderers want to murder happen to have numbers hidden in them, so this point was used by the murderer, causing the murderer to directly use playing cards to expand the scope of the attack, making it unclear what his real purpose is.

As for Murakami Zhang, in the original work, this person actually wanted to thank Mori Kogoro after he was released from prison, but because on the day he visited Mori Kogoro, Mori Kogoro happened to be not in the detective agency, so after leaving the office, he happened to meet the real culprit of the incident who was friends with Mori Kogoro.

Subsequently, in the process of talking to the murderer, the murderer learned about his past with Mori Kogoro, which made the murderer come up with the idea of using playing cards as a hint to mislead the police and Mori Kogoro and them, making them think that the murderer's true identity was Murakami Sho, who had just been released from prison and planned to take revenge.

And in the end, such misdirection is indeed a success.

However, in fact, as long as you have to analyze it carefully, even in the original work, the clues that have been present so far in the whole incident do not have enough evidence to prove anything.

On the most critical point, it is completely untenable to think that the murderer was trying to take revenge on Kogoro Maori.

Indeed, the first people to be attacked in the original work were three acquaintances of Mori Kogoro, but the acquaintances of these three people were not the only ones.

This point, when converted to the current situation, the current attack is the same as Officer Twilight, the concubine lawyer, and himself, all of whom are acquaintances of Maori Kogoro, but this is to be discussed, the people who are acquaintances with these three people are not only Maori Kogoro!

In this regard, listening to Takato's explanation, Officer Shiratori couldn't help but be silent and couldn't think of how to refute it, while Miwako Sato on the side couldn't help asking:

"So, what does Mr. Wise think of this incident?"

Seeing that Takato almost completely denied the current direction of investigation, Miwako Sato asked Takato with some expectation what direction Takato should investigate next in this incident.

In this regard, Gao Yuan actually can't give a positive answer, after all, the deviation of the current incident has occurred, whether the murderer behind the whole incident is still the original person, and whether the murderer's motives have changed, but at least, the murderer still chose to use playing cards to carry out a countdown herald attack, indicating that the person the other party really wants to murder must be among them, so Gao Yuan said:

"The key is who the murderer will attack next, and the murderer has not killed in the first three attacks so far, but since the other party has gone to such great lengths to come up with a countdown attack in the form of playing cards, it is possible, just like "ABC Murder", in order to hide the motive of wanting to murder someone, so as to deliberately create a series of events...... For example, it is possible that the person corresponding to the '10 of spades' may be the person who the murderer really wants to kill. ”

In this way, using an analogy, Gao Yuan temporarily said that the person corresponding to "ten" in the original work would be fatally attacked.

"'10 of spades'?"

But at this time, hearing Takato mention this, Yumi Miyamoto on the side was thoughtful-

"By the way, Mr. Wise, while inspecting the contents of your scrapped car, we found a '10 of spades' and a 'J of spades' playing cards, does that have anything to do with what you're talking about now?"

Recalling the results of the inspection of the contents of Takato's car, Yumi Miyamoto suddenly asked.

"What?"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan was suddenly stunned, then his thoughts turned, and he hurriedly exclaimed:

"Not good! Wrong! Totally wrong! The next attack will not be 'ten', but 'nine'! ”
