Chapter 024: The Murderer Is Myself?

By the time Katayama arrived in the garage downstairs, the fire had been brought under control by Hattori and the other passengers, and it seemed to have been extinguished.

"What's the situation now.........

Looking at Hattori's gray face wiping his sweat, Katayama asked embarrassedly, because he had been doing something else just now, and it was embarrassing that such a big thing happened and he didn't arrive until the fire was extinguished.

"There was a fire in the garage, just like you can see, the car inside, has been burned down to the basic skeleton, and Ayako Oki's body was found in the back seat of the car."

Hattori wiped the sweat and dust from his face and explained to Katayama, while also helping everyone on the scene explain the current situation.

"The position is facing under the saddle, I think I was looking for something under the back seat, and then I suddenly encountered a fire, and then I was burned alive inside........."

"You're right! You killed my Ayako! ”

Before Hattori finished speaking, Tojuken on the side took the lead in rushing over and grabbing Katayama's collar.

"All of us were in the hall just now, only you and Ayako left the hotel, and the murderer could only be you!"

Katayama looked at his excited appearance, so he could only push him away first, keeping a short distance.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Toju, I don't think I have any reason to kill Miss Oki, do I?"

Someone grabbed the collar and shouted the murderer for no reason, even if Katayama belonged to the type with a better temper, it was not too polite, he and Oki Ayako were meeting for the first time at all, why did he bother to kill her.

"At that time, Ayako said that you would disappear after she knew the murderer of the innkeeper, and when Ayako went out, she was killed! It's clear that he was afraid of being exposed, so he killed people! ”

Tojuken was full of words, and Katayama's immediate timing at that time was indeed not very timely, which also aroused the suspicion of others.

Indeed, in the previous time, everyone was in the hall, and when the fire broke out, only Katayama and Ayako Oki were missing, and no matter what you think, the murderer can only be him.

"No, Mr. Katayama has been with us during the time when the innkeeper fell off the cliff before, and he shouldn't be the murderer......

Xiaolan saw that Katayama was suspected by so many people, and immediately began to help Katayama defend himself.

But it didn't make much difference, the others still stared at Katayama with suspicious eyes, there was no way, the time he left was too suspicious.

"I guess let's go back to the hall first."

Hattori stopped Tojuken from rushing over, and apparently, he didn't think Katayama would be the murderer either.

………

Back in the lobby of the hotel, Hitomi Iwai said that she was going to make coffee for everyone and left the hall, in fact, she couldn't stand the tension of interrogating the prisoners.

After all, her impression of Katayama is that she is a kind and gentle person, and her cooking skills are very good, and such a person can actually kill people.........

The others remained in the room, ready to interrogate Katayama.

"Alright, Mr. Katayama, please explain why you left suddenly when we were all gathered in the hall."

"I'm looking for my cat."

"What about your cat?"

“……… It was ...... garage at the time"

"So you found the garage at the time?"

“…… Yes. ”

"So, where were you at the time of the fire?"

"The second floor of the hotel ........."

"Why did you show up when the fire in the garage was extinguished?"

"Because I'm ......... There are other things......"

The more Hattori asked, the more he felt that it was not good, he originally planned to reduce Katayama's suspicion by questioning, but how did he feel that the more he asked, the more suspicious he became.........

Even Conan couldn't help but complain in his heart, the garage was full of gasoline at the time, and if one accidentally didn't do it, he would light it, and he dared to go to the garage, this guy didn't have a big heart......

"I think you've been staying in the garage, and it didn't take long for you to meet Ayako who came to the garage, and she thought that she might know that you killed the innkeeper and set the fire, and then ran away to the second floor, and finally waited for the fire to go out, right?"

Tojuken said righteously, as if he had seen these things with his own eyes.

Katayama is also a black line, he just told the truth, why is the suspicion getting bigger and bigger.........

"Damn, why the hell did you kill the innkeeper! Is it just to get the book? ”

Toshiaki Fujisawa had an angry expression and said to Katayama, which made Katayama a little unsure of how to explain, damn it! I knew he wouldn't tell the truth!

At this time, without warning, the lights went out......... The entire inn was completely dark.

It was also pitch black in front of everyone's eyes, and the sudden darkness temporarily deprived them of their vision, which made everyone feel uneasy.

Hattori looked at him vigilantly, he had a hunch that something terrible was going to happen..........

"Damn, what's going on! Is there a power outage? ”

Toshiaki Fujisawa's voice rang out in the darkness, but no one answered his question.

Immediately after, there was the sound of glass breaking, as if the window had been broken by something.

In the dark, the real murderer, has finally begun his third-step plan!

An ice pick appeared in his hand, but instead of holding it directly with his hand, he wrapped the handle with a handkerchief.

He was not overwhelmed by the sudden darkness, but ran to his target with precision, Toshiaki Fujisawa!

Just kill you, and my plan is complete, and then it's just a matter of ......

Buzz———

Again, without warning, the lights suddenly came on, and the light was restored in front of everyone's eyes, and although some were not used to the sudden light, they could still see.

In front of everyone...... Tojukento was holding an ice pick, standing behind Toshiaki Fujisawa, and the posture was clearly about to be pierced.

"It seems...... Some of the murderers ...... I don't recruit myself anymore. ”

Looking at Tojuken's embarrassing movements, Katayama also stood up and looked out the door.

I saw Zorro walking out of the door triumphantly with a few twisted wires in his mouth.

Toshiken looked at the twisted wires and thought, his expression obviously showing a look of consternation.

"I was surprised to see that the plan I designed suddenly unexpectedly unfolded......"

Katayama stood in place, looking at Tojuken with a calm face, as if the panic when he was interrogated was faked.

"What are you talking about, I don't understand at all!"

Toshiyan put away the ice pick stiffly, and tried to defend himself with a strong pretense.

After all, there is no evidence that he was the murderer of the previous two murders.

Toshiaki Fujisawa glared at him fiercely, still clutching something tightly in his hand.........
