Chapter 19: The Thirteenth Twilight of "Competitiveness".
The motive for the murder, the modus operandi of the murder, and the evidence - the three elements of solving the murder case.
The first two of this cold storage murder case have surfaced.
But the third party that can determine whether all reasoning is true or not, and the most crucial - the evidence, seems to have surfaced, but in fact, it ......
…
As a veteran detective, even though his reasoning skills are lacking, Twilight Thirteen quickly realizes that there is a serious problem with the progress of this case.
He had originally planned to ask Mu Yuan directly.
However, considering that explaining their thoughts to others seems to be extremely difficult and painful for high-functioning autistic people, Twilight Thirteen gives up on her original plan and looks to another brother instead.
…
"But...... Brother Kudo," Twilight Thirteen cautiously observed Kotokoto, who was slumped on the ground, and lowered her voice, "It seems that all the conclusions related to this case so far...... It's all our speculation! ”
"Huh?"
Kudo Shinichi was stunned.
He was originally going to stare at Mu Yuan with a high-spirited gaze, but he had to withdraw his gaze and think about it carefully.
Then he found that it seemed to ...... That's true!
Whether it is to conclude that Kurosawa Qin was poisoned, or to determine Kurosawa's motive for killing, or even to the conclusion that Yuko Yamai was killed, they actually don't have the slightest conclusive evidence!
How did the case get to this point?
Looking at Kurosawa Koto, who was sitting on the ground with a frightened face and trembling from time to time, Kudo Shinichi's eyes gradually converged on the figure in front of the incense case
- It's him.
All the key turns in this complex case within a case all happened under Mu Yuan's reminder or inducement!
"This guy ......"
…
"Brother Kudo?"
Seeing that his brother's expression was getting more and more solemn, Twilight Thirteen couldn't help but panic and interrupted Kudo Shinichi's long exam.
"Ah, the Dusk Police Department......" Kudo Shinichi, who came back to his senses, was stunned for a moment.
He took a deep breath, quickly let go of the complexity in his heart, and a bright smile appeared on his face again, "Don't worry, police department, this case will be solved soon!" ”
Detective is not a job that can be done by just one ability.
Mu Yuan's mental profile is indeed very powerful, but he is not bad!
…
"Even if you say so, Brother Kudo, the evidence ......"
"It's aconitine," Kudo Shinichi interrupted Twilight Thirteen's anxiety and began to explain directly, "It should be this poisonous substance that Kurosawa used to poison Mayumi Uchida. ”
"This substance melts into wine, swallows by humans, and only takes a few tenths of a milligram to cause a toxic reaction, and because it is metabolized quickly in the human body, it is difficult to detect after death."
"So most of the poisoning cases end up as ordinary heart failure and accidental death."
"Judging from Kurosawa's attitude at the beginning, I think that in addition to his belief that Makoto Uchida would not agree to an autopsy, this poison is also one of his confidences."
"At the same time, the reason why Ms. Mayumi's body showed that she was clenched on her chest and placket makes sense."
…
"Is that so......" Twilight Thirteen nodded, agreeing with Kudo Shinichi's reasoning, but quickly wondered, "But, about the evidence?" ”
"Don't worry about that!" Kudo Shinichi said confidently: "Aconitine is a highly toxic substance, and it is absolutely impossible to buy it in ordinary ways, but for Boss Kurosawa, who often uses various liquors to make sake chocolate, there is a natural channel that is already in front of him. ”
"It's the kind of bone-setting wine imported from abroad!"
"It's a medicinal liquor, and since it's not meant to be drunk, it's not forbidden to sell it, and I think Boss Kurosawa purified aconitine from this liquor, which is enough to poison people, and then made it into liquor chocolate."
"Judging from his panicked attitude at the beginning, I don't think he has had time to destroy the relevant evidence."
"So, we only need to search Kurosawa's boss's home or find his purchase order to determine his suspicion, and then apply for further special examination of Ms. Mayumi's body."
…
"Hmm......" Twilight Thirteen nodded again, but quickly frowned again, "But on what grounds should we apply for permission to search Kurosawa?" ”
"It's easy!" Kudo Shinichi continued, "As long as we find Yuko Yamai's body, we can open an investigation into Koto Kurosawa and Makoto Uchida on suspicion of intentional homicide. ”
"I see......
Twilight Thirteen touched her chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand and slapped Kudo Shinichi on the back.
Kudo Shinichi felt a huge force coming, and his eyes went dark...... I was almost slapped with my back on my back!
"Aha, what a worthy brother Kudo!" In a trance, Twilight Thirteen's hearty voice came again: "So, brother, you must have also determined where Yuko Yamai's body is?" ”
"Ahem, ahem......" Kudo Shinichi barely stood on his feet and sneered, "This...... Not sure yet. ”
"......" Twilight Thirteen's hand froze in mid-air.
…
On the other side of the shop, far away from the incense case, the criminal policemen who had been waiting here had already begun to whisper:
"Look! The detective can't do it, and he's about to win the police department! ”
"Uh...... I didn't hear it clearly, but how do I feel like he was asking Kudo Shinichi for help just now? ”
"Stupid, it must be because the police department has long seen that Kudo Shinichi is not sure and is deliberately mocking him!"
"Hmm...... Although I don't know what they are discussing, I didn't expect that he looks like a good man at the police department, and his desire to win is so strong. ”
"Which person with the ability is not competitive?"
"Well, that's right."
"Wait, the first to find the key evidence must be the Twilight Police Department!"
"Hmm!"
…
…
Here, hearing the discussion of the criminal police, Twilight Thirteen quickly pulled Kudo Shinichi to the incense case, and said in a low but serious voice:
"Brother Kudo, what are you kidding, if you can't find Yuko Yamai's body, won't this case be over!"
Kudo Shinichi glanced at Mu Yuan beside him, and said with a relaxed expression: "Don't worry, Dusk Police Department, I'm not the same as someone." ”
Mu Yuan learned a lesson from Kurosawa Koto, put on a newly researched squinting smile, and smiled at Kudo Shinichi.
"Humph!" Kudo Shinichi was stunned for a moment, and said unhappily: "Even if the suspect doesn't know and can't ask the specific location of the body, I have a way to find Yuko Yamai's body!" ”
"Really, Brother Kudo!" Twilight Thirteen grabbed Kudo Shinichi's shoulder with an excited face, "Can you really find the location where Yuko Yamai was buried?" ”
Although it was easier to solve the case with Brother Muyuan, in his heart, Twilight Thirteen still recognized Kudo Shinichi's reasoning ability.
"Of course, but Yuko Yamai's body hasn't been buried!" Kudo Shinichi looked at Mu Yuan, as if he was showing off and said proudly: "If Makoto Uchida wants to coerce Kurosawa Koto to commit a murder, it must be impossible to use an unconfirmed grave bag or a rotten corpse as a handle. ”
"He must have let Kurosawa Qin see Yuko Yamai, who is still intact as if he had returned from the past!"
"And the place where we can do this has always been in front of us, and that is ......"
