"No suspense, ......"

At this time, Takato, who was in the lounge, sighed in his heart after hearing Yusaku Kudo say this-

If it's a few of them, sure enough, the first to unravel the truth will be Yusaku Kudo......

So, let's see if Kudo Yusaku's reasoning is consistent with the conclusion he came to after combining Kuroba Kaito's views......

……

In this way, on the scene side, when everyone heard Kudo Yusaku say this seriously, everyone was stunned.

Among them, Conan, who had investigated the coffin but didn't have any ideas, would hear this, and he couldn't help but be surprised-

"Daddy!"

Thinking like this, he looked at each other, and then seemed to realize something-

Could it be that those inquiries just now were just to give Uncle Maori some time as a courtesy, but in fact, Dad already knew the truth?

After all, after returning to the scene, Dad didn't do anything to check the place again, but just asked the stage manager about the magic process......

- "It's a good work! Please tell us soon! ”

Officer Twilight said to Yusaku Kudo with surprise on his face at this time, and then to the frustrated Mori Kogoro, Officer Twilight frowned slightly-

"I can't expect you to not sleep......"

"Please, Teacher!"

In this regard, after hearing this, the reporters were even more surprised, and took out their cameras or notes, ready to record this is an extremely rare scene for them-

The world-renowned mystery novelist's first realistic reasoning.

In this way, Yusaku Kudo did not hesitate and began to reason:

"So, let's start with this ruse—

"This prisoner, when Mr. Dongzhou Jae was in the coffin, he couldn't open the control button for a while."

"But ......"

Hearing this, Officer Twilight wondered:

"Didn't you just say that there are no other organs? And if there were other agencies, it would have been discovered when we investigated, right? Afterwards, the control button can be turned on normally. ”

"Because the control button could not be opened only when Mr. Toshu Zhai first entered the coffin, but by the time Mr. Toshu Zhai was rescued from the fire, the control button had returned to normal."

In this regard, Yusaku Kudo explained.

"Huh? How is this possible? ”

In this way, Officer Twilight and the others were even more puzzled.

"It's simple...... Because it's frozen! ”

With sharp eyes, Kudo Yusaku said.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Conan was also shocked, this was an idea he didn't expect at all, but ......

If it's frozen......

"Frozen? How to get it? ”

Xiaolan also asked suspiciously.

"What the hell is going to do to freeze that button?"

Officer Twilight couldn't have imagined this situation at all.

So, Yusaku Kudo gave an answer:

"Just use a mixture of dry ice and alcohol."

"That's right! And this trick! ”

Suddenly, after hearing Yusaku Kudo's explanation, Conan already had eyebrows-

"When dry ice is mixed with alcohol, the temperature drops to minus 117 degrees Celsius very quickly, forming an ultra-cold liquid at which things freeze almost instantaneously."

In this way, Yusaku Kudo explained the principle.

But in this regard, Maori Kogoro and Xiaolan were still a little puzzled and asked:

"But how to ...... in a performance with so many audiences"

"You can do it with very thin rubber balloons."

With a serious expression, Yusaku Kudo continued:

The prisoner loaded two balloons with dry ice and alcohol, and then put them in the coffin before the performance began, and then waited for Mr. Toshu Jae to enter and set the fire, and before he could untie the chain and press the button, the balloon would burst due to the heat, causing the dry ice and alcohol to mix in an instant, causing the control button to freeze immediately.

"Therefore, Mr. Dongshu Zhai would be sealed in a coffin in such a fire and could not escape, and finally died due to high temperature and lack of oxygen, and finally when we put out the fire and open the coffin, the dry ice and alcohol would have volatilized long before that.

"The evidence is that the balloons dissolved by the high temperature will still remain, and there should be some residue near Mr. Toshu Zhai's feet, and you can smell the stench of the dissolved rubber."

"That'...... Who would have done such a horrible thing......"

Hearing such a technique, Xiaolan asked with some surprise.

"This technique is easy to say, but in fact, due to the heat of the balloon and the temperature of the flame, etc., if the button is thawed due to the temperature before the deceased dies, then there is a possibility of failure, so in order to successfully implement this method, it is necessary not only to be able to make this magic coffin and be proficient in its construction, but also to be able to easily put things into this prop, and even to be able to conduct many experiments until the day when the final method is successful......

With that, Yusaku Kudo looked at the stage manager, Mr. Yasuda:

"After this magic trick was successfully performed dozens of times, it finally waited for the day when this trick was successful...... Mr. Yasuda, the prisoner who can do this is you. ”

With a slightly serious expression, Yusaku Kudo gave the answer.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Mr. Yasuda and his son Yoshiyuki Yasuda were stunned, and Miss Toshu Sai looked at this gentleman who had worked with her father for many years in surprise, covering her mouth in disbelief.

"How is that possible...... Father? ”

Yoshiyuki Yabuta looked at his father and asked in disbelief.

"In order to get the temperature of dry ice to drop so quickly, you can't usually use a whisky with a purity of 46%, you have to use very pure alcohol, and Mr. Yakita drinks this vodka with a purity of 96%, which is the only way to do it. And as I said, from the point of view of the technique, the only person who can do something to the coffin in the past is Mr. Yasuda. ”

Yusaku Kudo said.

In this regard, in the face of such a situation, Miss Dongzhou Zhai was a little broken:

"Uncle? Is it really an uncle? ”

In this way, Miss Dongzhou Zhai asked him crying.

But at this moment, it seems that as the technique was revealed, Mr. Yasuda's expression changed from the original drunken appearance to a cold face, and it seemed that he had no intention of quibbling, and directly admitted:

"That's right, it's me. All the while, I was intimidated by that guy from Dongzhou Zhai. ”

Speaking of this, Mr. Yakita sighed, and then seemed to fall into a memory:

"When I was young, I toured with him in various places in order to make a living, and I did everything by myself, from stage setting to tidying up, and at night I often drove to the performance venue without sleeping, so the fatigue accumulated every day caused me to doze off on the way to the car and hit the drunk person on the side of the road, causing him to die on the spot.

"But at that time, I begged that guy to be silent because I was afraid, but he said that he wanted me to promise everything he said from now on. And so the hellish days began, and he took all the magic ideas I came up with in my sleep......

"Originally, I was supposed to be the one who was popular, but he was jealous of my popularity, so he simply let me make suggestions behind the scenes and monopolize all the credit......

"And now, the prosecution period for that incident has passed, but because my son is gradually gaining popularity, he still wants my son to step back into the background, and threatens me to make it public, and damage my son's reputation and future in the name of being a murderer!

"So, for the sake of my son, I came up with the idea of using this magic trick to get rid of him!"
