Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 280 Detective Yang Zi

Yangzi was not surprised at all by the other party's request, and she announced her family name openly. This was something she expected, and it was also one of the reasons why she proposed to point out the murderer on Xiaolan's behalf.

After all, if Xiaolan identifies her former class teacher as the murderer in the newspaper, it will inevitably form a whirlpool of public opinion around her, and she may even be accused unreasonably by her classmates who were in Koko Yonehara's class.

On the contrary, these public opinions did not have much impact on her as an outsider. They might even enhance her reputation in Teidan High School, Mihua and Abeido Town, which could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

After hearing Yoko's self-introduction, Mori Atsushi's eyes lit up and he said: "Oh, it turns out that he is a classmate of the famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi. It seems that Teidan High School is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Then allow me to listen to your advice. Let’s discuss it.”

"Don't worry, the following reasoning will definitely satisfy you." Yangzi glanced at the four people in front of him with sharp eyes, and said with determination, "It will also convince the murderer."

"But Sawabe-san, when Mr. Sugiyama's body rang the doorbell, we were all staying in the restaurant. How could we do that?" Feeling the other person's steady aura, Yonehara Koko couldn't bear it Zhu was the first to speak and reminded.

Seeing that the prisoner was so restless, Yangzi smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I will restore the prisoner's tactics to the original scene, so that everyone will naturally know what happened."

Just when everyone was doubting whether this method really existed, the doorbell rang in a very cooperative manner, so Conan immediately ran to open the door, followed by Sentoshi, who wanted to see what happened.

After seeing a snowboard box that was as tall as a person leaning firmly against the doorbell button, exactly the same position and angle as where Teacher Sugiyama's body appeared before, everyone had to admit the feasibility of this method.

"But if you want the body to be that stiff, you have to kill Mr. Sugiyama several hours in advance, right?" Minori Nakamura raised his own question about this.

"So the prisoner actually called Mr. Sugiyama to the villa half a day in advance and killed him. The ice picks that appeared on the eaves when we arrived at the villa were proof that someone had turned on the heating earlier." Yoko answered without any pause.

After listening to Yoko's explanation, Sentoshi, who was gradually attracted by the reasoning, continued to urge: "Since you said the culprit is among us, let's quickly uncover the mystery of the missing weapon in the second murder case!"

"Actually, the murder weapon did not disappear, but was always carried by the murderer." Yangzi smiled and shook his head.

"What?! But we have already body-searched the three people who were on the second floor before, and no rope similar to the murder weapon was found. Could it be that the murderer is someone else?!" Sentoshi immediately retorted after hearing this.

"Actually, the murder weapon is not a rope at all, but a personal item that is easily overlooked by everyone." At this point, Yoko did not intend to continue to explain. She looked directly at Mihara Koko with a sharp gaze like a falcon and stretched out her finger to identify it. Said, "And the only person carrying that item is you—Mr. Yonehara!"

The moment her name was called, Yonehara Koko fell into panic. Although she wanted to refute Yoko, she felt an icy coldness from the bottom of her heart the moment her eyes met. , causing her to just stand there unable to say a word.Seeing Mihara Koko's devastated look, Yoko didn't bother to look at her again, and continued to accuse the other party of using a wig twisted into a rope as a murder weapon. The blood stains and skin tissue on the wig were ironclad evidence of these things. Read it again.

Then she explained that the person Sonoko saw lying on the ground should be Mr. Sugiyama who had been put on Yonehara Koko's clothes and wig, and the reason why the other party attacked Sonoko was to disguise himself as a victim so that it would be easier. Get close to the target Kohei Shimoda, and use this to bring out the incident of Minako's suicide three years ago.

After hearing this, Yonehara Koko finally took off the wig on her head, put on an expression of resignation and began to tell her motive for the murder.

It turned out that Mochizuki Minako had been approached the day before her death three years ago, saying that she had discovered two teachers in the school who were secretly trading illegal admission quotas. One of them was clearly Mr. Sugiyama, while the other one she did not explain, she just said that she would personally Check this with a teacher you respect.

But the next day, Minako was found hanging in the ballet club classroom. Due to lack of clues, the police finally concluded the case hastily because Minako committed suicide due to academic pressure.

She firmly believed that Minako was murdered by Mr. Sugiyama and someone. In order to avenge her students, she gathered all the respected teachers together, planned this snow mountain skiing activity, and finally found out the other person through a series of tests. It’s Shimoda Kohei.

"So I killed them with my own hands, because I couldn't forgive them for betraying the students who respected them as teachers, and even killing her with my own hands. I absolutely can't forgive them!" At this point, Yonehara Koko couldn't help roaring ferociously. .

"Bang!!" Just when the murderer denounced the ugly behavior of the two deceased people, a loud slap suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, attracting the attention of everyone around them, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

Yoko flashed in front of Yonehara Koko, slapped her to the ground with a big backhand, pointed at her nose and scolded mercilessly: "So this is the reason why you can take away other people's lives on your own? Ridiculous. Extremely great!"

"Why didn't you stand up and explain everything to the police three years ago? Even a primary school student could know about their criminal activities. As a teacher, if you were tough enough, wouldn't the police be able to find out the problem?"

"Don't use the excuse that the school is covering up the murderer for reputation. If you tell the child's parents everything you know, I don't believe they won't do their best to seek justice for their daughter!"

"Don't use the excuse of punishing murderers to be so righteous, Ling Ran. Don't you deserve to know? You keep saying it's for revenge for the students, but in fact it's just to calm the uneasiness and guilt in your heart and get rid of the condemnation of conscience. This kind of behavior I can only use two words to describe it, that is 'selfish'!"

"Take a good look in the mirror and see your hypocritical face! Today you could have asked me to lay the sheets with you, but you chose Yuanzi in the end. Why? Because you know her better and know that she is seeing You will feel genuine worry and panic after you fall to the ground, which will make it easier for you to complete the attack!"

"You actually took advantage of the students' true feelings for you and carried out the murder plan out of selfishness at the expense of hurting the other party. Do you know that you are more shameful than those two guys?! Not only are you unworthy of being a teacher, you are not even worthy of being a human being!!"
