106 Two murderers
"The 'J', 'Q', and 'K' cards in the playing cards, because of the card pattern, from the very beginning, the gangster used the items left in the card pattern on the spot to hint at which playing cards the first three victims corresponded to."
Everyone present, except for Takato at this moment, the rest of the people listened to Kudo Shinichi's narration, and they only felt confused, but because they and others didn't understand what Kudo Shinichi wanted to express at all, so on the way Kudo Shinichi spoke, everyone didn't interrupt silently, and continued to listen to Kudo Shinichi's narration-
"So, the third time, Mr. Wise, who represents the 'J of Spades,' was attacked, and found an item on the corresponding 'J of Spades' card on the spot, there is no problem. But the problem is that those two playing cards found in Mr. Wise's car! ”
"Since the killer was able to leave the corresponding item at the scene after attacking me with the truck, then in other words, the item representing the 'J of spades' was in the murderer's hand, and there was no need for him to put the 'J of spades' in my car in advance to imply that I was the third victim......"
In this regard, Gao Yuan already roughly understood what Kudo Shinichi meant, so he couldn't help but follow Kudo Shinichi's analysis and continued:
"Similarly, if Conan was the target of the '10 of spades,' the killer didn't have to leave the '10 of spades' in my car beforehand, he could have waited until the attack was complete, and then left the '10 of spades' as the item representing the 'J of spades'.
"In other words, although Conan and I, who arrived at the repair shop at the same time, could have met the goals of the 'J of Spades' and the '10 of Spades', leaving these two playing cards in my car was completely redundant!"
Saying this, Gao Yuan's expression looked very solemn-
"That's right."
Nodding, Kudo Shinichi responded with a serious expression, and then changed the conversation and began to say:
"However, because the next day, Mr. Asahi Hiroki, who represents the '9 of spades', encountered a situation where someone changed his eye drops and wanted him to have an accident while driving a helicopter, we didn't think much about the suspicion of the two playing cards in your car Mr. Wise before, and thought that the murderer's attack had indeed come to 'nine' in the order of the counting of the playing cards."
"And the problem is that during the day, the person who replaced the first eye drops of Asahiko is really the gangster who attacked us in a row before......"
At this point, Takato's expression also became serious, and he understood Kudo Shinichi's thoughts, and at the same time realized that this incident was becoming more and more complicated-
"Yes. That's the problem! ”
Nodding his head sharply, Kudo Shinichi said:
"If it was just Mr. Hiroki who was attacked again tonight, then the previous situation might have used the gangster's mistake to explain why Mr. Wise was put on the playing cards, but now that Dr. Asa was attacked not long ago, and the gangster left the '10 of spades' playing cards at the scene, then it may mean-"
"There are two murderers!"
At this moment, Takato couldn't help but draw such a conclusion from Kudo Shinichi's analysis:
"The murderer who attacked me yesterday was actually only me, and the attack on Conan may have only been because Conan's behavior angered the murderer, which made the murderer temporarily hit Conan who was just in the middle of the road with his car, which is why in the end the police at the scene of the car accident only found the item representing the 'J of spades', as for the two playing cards in my car, it may actually have nothing to do with the murderer!
"For that murderer, last night's attack, he only completed the attack on the target corresponding to the 'Jack of Spades', and the attack on the target corresponding to the '10 of Spades' has not started at all! And tonight, Dr. Asa was attacked, and he had just finished attacking the '10 of Spades'......"
Saying this, Gao Yuan paused for a moment, and then realized that the current plot was no longer the original, so he couldn't help asking:
"Dr. Asasa's injuries are alright, right?"
Although according to Kudo Shinichi, Dr. Asa was also shot and injured by gangsters with a cross bow like the original work, but this is no longer the plot of the original work after all, and he can't judge Dr. Asasa's condition from the perspective of the original work, at least he has to ask about the situation-
Of course, looking at Kudo Shinichi's attitude, it is obvious that Dr. Agasa's injury should not be large.
In this regard, seeing that Takato asked about Dr. Asasa's injury, Kudo Shinichi just replied lightly:
"It didn't hurt the vital point, and it will be fine if you recuperate for a few more days."
"yes......"
Nodding, Gao Yuan turned to ask:
"And when exactly Dr. Asa was attacked?"
"It's past six o'clock in the evening."
Kudo Shinichi replied, and then seemed to understand why Takato asked like this, Kudo Shinichi immediately looked at Wataru Takagi and asked:
"When was Mr. Asahi Hiroki killed?"
"Huh? This...... After 8 p.m.! ”
Suddenly, Takagi Shibu saw Kudo Shinichi asking him, but he didn't react immediately, Takagi Shibu hesitated for a moment, and then replied.
In this regard, Takato and Kudo Shinichi both looked at each other as if they had confirmed something, and nodded tacitly-
"Kudo! Wise brother! What the hell is going on! Why don't I understand something? ”
At this time, seeing the interaction between Takato and Kudo Shinichi, Officer Twilight, who was at a loss, knew that they should have an idea, so he hurriedly said so.
In this regard, the rest of the people present also had the same attitude, somewhat ignorant of the current situation, and nodded, echoing Officer Twilight's meaning.
"To put it simply, there are two murderers who caused these incidents. The one who attacked Officer Twilight, Attorney Concubine, Me, and Dr. Asa was the culprit who created the incident of using playing cards to count down to find the victim, and the person who replaced Mr. Asahi's eye drops was the second murderer to take advantage of this incident! ”
Gao Yuan explained this.
Subsequently, Kudo Shinichi also said:
"It seems that Mr. Asahi Hiroki was attacked twice by the murderer, but now it seems that the people who made these two different attacks should be two different murderers! It's just that the goal of the two people happens to be the same person as Mr. Asahi Hiroki! ”
"The thing should be like this, the second murderer didn't know where he knew that the first murderer was looking for the victim to attack by using playing cards to count down, so he thought of using the first murderer's ongoing incident to complete the attack on Mr. Asahi Hiroki in advance in a hitchhiking way, so as to not only complete the purpose he wanted to murder Asahi Hiroki, but also blame the suspect on the first murderer!"
Gao Yuan followed up and explained.
