Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 668 Gao Yuan Came for the Necklace

"Game over!"

After Hattori Heiji fell asleep due to the effect of the anesthesia needle, Conan immediately took out the bow tie voice changer, and adjusted the knob of the voice changer to change his voice into Hattori Heiji's voice, and then Conan hid in the door Then, using Hattori Heiji's voice, he imitated Hattori Heiji's Osaka accent as much as possible and said——

"I have fully understood who the murderer is! And what method the murderer used to commit this incident!"

"what?"

All of a sudden, the people present who were still surprised by the fact that Fujisawa Toshiaki and Oki Ayako had known the owner Kanaya Hiroyuki for a long time, after hearing Hattori Heiji's words, their expressions became even more surprised , turning their heads in unison to look at Hattori Heiji, who was leaning on the door at this time.

"That's right, the first homicide in this hotel where Mr. Kanaya, the owner, was killed and he fell off a cliff in a car, and the culprit who tried to harm Ms. Oki and Mr. Fujisawa by using the gasoline volatilized in the garage..."

Saying so, Conan held up Hattori Heiji's drooping right hand from behind the door at the same time, pointing Hattori Heiji's finger at someone in the room—

"It's you!"

Ling Ran, Hattori Heiji's voice said firmly.

"Huh? Me?"

However, looking in the direction pointed by Hattori Heiji's finger, standing in front of the crowd, Kogoro Mori pointed at himself in amazement, and asked blankly.

At the same time, everyone present was also shocked.

As for this, Conan leaned out from behind the door for a while and looked at the situation in the room. Conan was a little helpless, and continued to explain in Hattori Heiji's voice:

"Wrong! I mean behind the uncle, who is sweating at this time... Mr. Kento Toba! The murderer is you!"

As soon as this remark came out, Toba Kenren couldn't help being stunned, and he froze on the spot for a moment.

At the same time, after hearing the result from Hattori Heiji's voice, Oki Ayako looked a little disappointed, finally lowered her head helplessly, and sighed——

"Wait, wait a minute!"

However, when everyone turned their attention to Kento Toba in shock because of Hattori Heiji's words, Kento Toba immediately retorted in a panic:
"I stayed with you for a few hours before the owner started the car! Aren't you here? Tell me, what should I do to kill you while staying with you? Where is the shopkeeper!"

"Hum-"

Regarding this, just after Kento Toba finished speaking, Kogoro beside him couldn't help laughing proudly, and then slowly walked up to Hattori Heiji, as if he couldn't bear it, and hit Hattori Heiji on the head punch -

"father!"

Regarding Kogoro punching Hattori Heiji on the head, Xiaolan felt that it was very bad, so she couldn't help persuading him.

Noticing the strength of Kogoro's punch just now, Conan, who was hiding behind the door, couldn't help but panic——

"Oops! This won't wake him up..."

But Kogoro was still very displeased, staring at Hattori Heiji, venting his anger and saying:
"That's right! You idiot! Stop looking down on people! Why are you talking in such a weird Kansai dialect! When the shopkeeper started the car, weren't you here with Toha? Tell me, what is he going to do like this?" Let the car start!"

"Yes, it does seem impossible."

However, seeing that Hattori Heiji did not wake up after being punched by Kogoro, Conan continued to use his voice to say:

"However, if you take advantage of the rigid state after death and the performance of the car, it will be possible!"

As he spoke, Conan paused for a while, and then spoke out the core conspiracy of the murder of the owner Hiroyuki Kanaya——

"The trick is this. Let the store manager, who has been dead for a whole day, sit in the driver's seat and fix him with his foot on the brakes. After a long time, when the body starts to stiffen, in this way, even if the car's engine is running [-]. Shift the gear to D, but the car still won't move due to the brakes. Then, just open the garage before eating, and slowly follow everyone in the house to wait for the corpse to soften, and the foot that is stepping on the brake will loosen Drive, the car will naturally start!"

"Hahahaha!"

But for such inferences, Kogoro immediately burst out laughing:
"You boy, don't pretend to understand if you don't understand! The stiff corpse will not start to soften until 40 hours after death! If according to what you said, the shopkeeper was killed early yesterday, then it's just a matter of time." More than twenty hours is not enough time at all!"

"But what if the ambient temperature of the corpse is higher?"

As soon as Kogoro's voice fell, Hattori Heiji's voice immediately gave an explanation.

"Hey?"

Hearing this, Kogoro was taken aback for a moment.

"If the temperature around the corpse is as high as 35 degrees Celsius, the rate of stiffness and softening will be accelerated. About 24 to 30 hours, the corpse will start to soften."

Conan smiled proudly, and reasoned in Hattori Heiji's voice:

"The owner of the store is based on the premise that he disappeared after 10 o'clock at night. Assuming that he was killed immediately at that time, the car started at around 03:30 this morning, which is about 29 hours later. Isn't the time very consistent?

"And at that time, didn't we also hear the sound like blowing in the car? That was not the air conditioner we thought at first, but the heating! If the air conditioner was turned on, there should be water dripping down next to the front wheels."

"So, you just went back and looked around the tire tracks?"

Xiaolan was a little surprised by this.

"Yes."

Conan continued to answer in Hattori Heiji's voice:
"When we investigated the ruts immediately after the incident, we did not find any traces of water droplets! That means that the air conditioner was not turned on in the car at that time. Therefore, the sound of wind we heard at that time could only be caused by the heating in the car. Already!"

"However, this kind of trick only needs to investigate the stiffness of the corpse..."

Faced with such a situation, Kogoro couldn't help feeling emotional, and at the same time understood why the murderer made such an arrangement——

"That's why the murderer wanted the shopkeeper and his car off the cliff! Because only if the body can't be found, it's impossible to investigate the stiffness of the body!"

Hattori Heiji's voice continued to explain.

"Why did the car suddenly accelerate?"

After listening to this analysis, astrologer Maria Toda raised some doubts.

And Conan continued to use Hattori Heiji's voice to analyze:
"Probably because of the bumpy road, the foot of the already softened corpse slipped off the brake pedal completely. Since there is no deceleration by the brake, the speed of the car will naturally increase. And the cloth covering the dashboard is also for Don't let people who are close to the car find out that the car is turned on because of the heater!"

"I see……"

Very shocked, Kawazu Ikuo couldn't help sighing:
"And then just watch the car start itself with anyone in the house..."

"In this way, the murderer has a perfect alibi!"

Maria Toda said with some admiration.

"Then... At that time, Mr. Toba asked Ms. Ayako to stay in the house to create a witness who witnessed the car start with him?"

Unbelievable, Xiao Lan asked.

"Yes."

Hattori Heiji's voice confirmed Ran's words.

But Xiaolan found it difficult to accept such a statement, and couldn't help but look at Ayako Oki who was silent at the side——

"But...why! If the murderer who killed the shopkeeper was Mr. Toba, wouldn't that mean...the person who wanted Miss Ayako's life just now was also Mr. Toba!"

Xiaolan asked puzzledly:

"Aren't they lovers? Why do they do that!"

"Because I want to kill my mouth!"

Coldly, Hattori Heiji's voice responded:

"Didn't Ms. Ayako say it herself—she already knows who the murderer is!"

"What! If you say that, at that time!"

Surprised, after hearing what Hattori Heiji said, everyone present couldn't help looking at Ayako Oki who was standing aside, a little unbelievable——

"That's right. Everyone should still remember, right? Ms. Ayako Oki suddenly said that she knew who the murderer was. Because at that time, after she learned from me that there were no traces of water droplets near the rut marks, the murderer used the dead body She has already exposed the method of creating an alibi with a stiff trick!"

Conan recalled the situation when Oki Ayako asked Hattori Heiji before announcing to everyone that she knew who the murderer was, and couldn't help but say so.

"But if this is the case, she already knew that Toba was the murderer, so why is she still unwilling to tell the truth after knowing that the murderer also wanted her life!"

Kogoro asked loudly.

"Of course it's because Miss Ayako Oki has her own agenda!"

Conan continued in Hattori Heiji's voice:
"You guys still remember that after hearing Ms. Ayako Oki's announcement that she knew who the murderer was, the anxious Mr. Toba pretended to follow her to the bathroom. In fact, he was looking for her to negotiate terms. I think Miss Ayako Oki's The note should have been given by Mr. Toba to Ms. Oki Ayako at that time, in order to let Oki Ayako keep the secret for him on the condition of the original version!"

"Indeed... At that time, only Toha could be alone with her."

Kawazu Ikuo said suddenly.

"That's why her attitude changed drastically after she came back!"

Maria Toda was surprised by this and said:

"But he is so powerful that he can think of this trick immediately at such a time!"

"No, this trick was originally prepared for another person. The most fortunate thing for the murderer is that Miss Ayako Oki has the same habit of carrying a lighter with her!"

Hattori Heiji's voice explained again:

"That's right, the trap in the garage should have been designed for Mr. Fujisawa from the beginning!"

"what!"

Terrified, Toshiaki Fujisawa yelled out, and the rest of the people also looked at Toshiaki Fujisawa in surprise——

"The purpose of the card stuck in the door of your room is to lure you to the garage. But because of the sudden incident, the murderer thought of using this trick to kill Ayako first. As for how to kill you in the end, he You can only make other plans.”

Hattori Heiji's voice explained, then changed his tone, and continued to explain:
"However, it is precisely because of your reaction before and after, Ms. Oki Ayako, after trying to understand the murderer's method of killing the shopkeeper, it also allowed me to completely confirm who the real murderer is, so I was able to solve the truth of this incident! If I'm not wrong, even after being stopped by us and knowing that Mr. Toba wanted to kill you, the reason why you still didn't choose to make the truth you know to the public should be because of the original version!"

Regarding this, Oki Ayako remained silent, as if she still did not intend to tell the truth.

"That's right... It seems that for that original version, you really did everything you can..."

Seeing Ayako Oki's reaction, Conan continued to say in Hattori Heiji's voice with a little regret——

"However, even if you don't say it, I already know what evidence you have that can prove that Mr. Toba is the murderer by inferring from your reactions!"

Saying that, Hattori Heiji's voice slowly said:
"Miss Ayako Oki, you went to Mr. Toba's room and saw something in the daytime yesterday, and because of this thing, you immediately judged that the murderer who killed the shopkeeper was Mr. Toba!"

"Evidence! What evidence!"

Regarding the statement given by Hattori Heiji's voice, Kogoro couldn't help stepping forward to ask.

——"It's that questionnaire!"

Suddenly, suddenly, there was another voice that was very unfamiliar to the members of the tour group present, but at this time came from outside the door.

But this voice is very familiar to Conan and others——

It's Gao Yuan!
Takato, wearing a blue windbreaker, walked past Conan outside the door, walked into the room slowly, looked at Kento Toba with an ugly face, and said slowly:
"Miss Ayako Oki probably went to your room yesterday to peek at the answers you wrote, or when she wanted to discuss the answers with you, but found that you were not in the room. At that time, you may have gone to the garage to check the dead body. What happened? So, in the end, Ms. Ayako Oki must have just found the questionnaire you wrote in your room..."

Saying that, Takato paused, and then saw that Hattori Heiji, who was sitting with his back against the door, opened his eyes, got up slowly, and said lightly:
"As for that questionnaire, you probably didn't write a single word! After all, you already knew in your heart that the shop owner who corrected the test papers is no longer in this world, so you don't need to spend so much time writing that one. Questionnaire of meaning! Now, just show us your questionnaire and we'll know if what I'm talking about is nonsense!"

As soon as this statement came out, the rest of the people present were shocked——

Among them, Conan, who was hiding behind the door, widened his eyes even more, completely at a loss for what to do——

"That guy... when did he wake up! And, why would Mr. Wise..."

But at this moment, for Kento Toba, any words were useless.

I saw him slowly knelt down on the ground with a look of unwillingness.

Seeing this, seeing his behavior like this, everyone present already understood that the truth of everything was really as what was said just now, and that he was the murderer who killed the shopkeeper Hiroyuki Kanaya.

However, regarding the current situation, Gao Yuan, who arrived here not long ago, couldn't help but feel a little helpless——

It seems that without my participation in this incident, there really was no major deviation...

However, this kind of self does not directly participate in the incident at the scene, but influences the choice of the original staff in the incident through other means...

It seems to have a little effect on the effect on its results?

Blinking slightly, Gao Yuan looked around at the people present, and found that Ayako Oki, who was supposed to die in the original work, did not die. Gao Yuan couldn't help feeling that this was a bit positive!
However, compared to these, as expected——

The necklace named "Priest" is really here!
