Be the god of death in the world of famous detectives

Chapter 36 Captured on the spot
So after the power supply was restored, when Conan saw the extra legs next to the white tree under the table, he felt something was wrong and hurriedly climbed out.

... But now he is fine, after a short pause, Conan went back silently.

Although Naoki was too messy, I have to say that the timing was pretty good.

——Being arrested for committing a murder in front of so many people, reasoning at this time may break his psychological defense and make him admit his crime.

"It really is you, Ichiro Somoto." Conan brought the bow to his lips, making his tone oppressive, "I committed two crimes in a row, and now I am going to silence the witnesses!"

"...Ichiro?" Mariko looked at her son in disbelief.

Even if someone dared to say that Ichiro Somoto was the murderer one minute earlier, Mariko must be so angry that he knew why the flowers were so popular.

But now, Ichiro Somoto attacked Shirasu in full view, even with the murder weapon lying aside—it cannot be said that Ichiro Somoto grabbed Somoto Ichiro in the dark and pulled him to the door in just a dozen seconds, and then let him stab himself One knife.

...Even if Shiroki can do this trick, if Ichiro Somoto is really innocent and is suddenly dragged away, wouldn't he still be able to shout?

No one could refute this conclusion, and the restaurant fell into dead silence for a moment.

After a long time, Mariko swallowed hard, "But... Maybe Ichiro was coerced to attack this young man! There is no evidence to prove that Dad and Long Nan were killed by him!" The crime of attempted murder is less serious than killing two people much.

Conan had expected someone to say that.He raised the hand of Mori Kogoro, who was in a coma, and waved it, "Who said no? This is the evidence."

Mori Kogoro was stuffed with a handkerchief, wrapped in a small piece of bread crumbs stained with blood and charcoal.

In fact, this kind of thing is difficult to use as evidence. After all, it is not easy to extract fingerprints from bread, but it is still possible to use it to bluff people. "This is the bread crumbs that were found next to Master Haozang's body before."

It was only at this moment that Ichiro Somoto came to his senses. He sat up with difficulty, and subconsciously looked at his cuff. It was clean at the moment, but his heart still sank.

"When Ichiro Somoto was painting, it was inevitable that some bread crumbs would fall into his sleeves, and the bread crumbs next to the corpse probably fell out of his sleeves accidentally when he committed a murder."

"No, it's impossible, someone must have framed it!", Ichiro Somoto looked as if he had given up on the rescue, but Mariko was still dying.

"You should still remember the origin of the earliest 'secret room'. It was because the old man locked the door behind him immediately after being stabbed to avoid the murderer. At that moment, the murderer had no time to play any tricks." Bai Shu finished. , threw the broken book in his hand on the table.

The spine of the book hit the table with a click, which also seemed to hit Mariko's heart. She looked at the hideous knife marks on it, her face turned pale, and finally she stopped talking.

Conan said in his heart, "Good job", "As for the death of Ryuu Samoto, it was just the murderer's impromptu intention. Before Naoki said that he heard the sound of water and quarrels, so it should be Ryuu Samoto who saw the scene where the murderer threw away the murder weapon. caused him to be silenced."

Qiu Jiang gritted his teeth, and muttered angrily, "But, after my husband was killed, didn't Xiao Wu disappear from the warehouse, no matter how you think about it, he is still the most suspicious!"

"I heard the movement before, and when I ran to the deck, I saw Ichiro Somoto running towards the warehouse." Bai Shu said, "He is planning to blame Xiao Wu again. Including the flowers that fell at the door earlier , and this time, taking advantage of the power outage, trying to kill me, a 'witness', is all his attempt to get rid of the crime."

"...That's true." At this moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open, and a person walked in, it was Xiao Wu who had been eavesdropping for a while.

Xia Jiang subconsciously took a step towards him, and was immediately pulled back by Qiu Jiang, "Are you crazy! He is..."

Halfway through the conversation, Qiu Jiang's voice weakened.What the two detectives said seemed to make sense. If they hadn't lied...Xiao Wu might not really be the murderer.

"I didn't kill anyone!" Seeing that their attitudes were loose, Xiao Wu hurriedly defended, "When my brother-in-law died, I heard Xia Jiang's screams, and accidentally pushed the door open, and the door opened... After I went over, I found that Xia Jiang was fine. I also heard that you guessed that I was the murderer, and I was afraid of being framed again, so I ran to the cabin and hid until now."

"Xiao Wu...", Xia Jiang obviously didn't think he was the murderer anymore, the two looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and began to distribute dog food again.

Shoji stroked his chin, "So, the murderer was really Ichiro?"

Somoto Hokuro wiped his sweat cowardly, looked at his son helplessly, "Ichiro, why..." You want to do such a thing.

"I didn't know his motive until the end. I accidentally found something in Ichiro's room just now." Conan smiled confidently, climbed to the side of Kogoro Mori, and was about to continue to manipulate his arm, lifting Ichiro Somoto's arm. painting.

However, when he moved his hand to the side of Kogoro Mori's seat, he realized that in the chaotic darkness just now, Hua had been kicked away by someone, several meters away from him.

Sweat dripped from the forehead of Conan: "..." Everyone in the room was staring at Kogoro Mori. At this time, if they climbed out to get it, would they be discovered?

In his tangled space, someone got impatient waiting, "What did you find? Are you talking about it?"

You said it well, why did you suddenly get stuck.The violent Qiu Jiang looked suspicious, and walked over to see what the detective was pretending to be.

Bai Shu sensed something, lowered his head and looked around, and found a stack of paintings next to the pillar, it seems that Xiaolan bumped into it when he kicked Ichiro Somoto just now.

"..." Peeking at the hopeless protagonist under the table, Bai Shu walked over to pick up the painting, and started to act exaggeratedly, "Oh, Mr. Mao Li, are you talking about that!"

right! ! Nice!Conan let out a long sigh of relief, wishing he could applaud him.

However, his tone was still calm, as if everything was under control, and he held on to the force of a detective, "That's right, this is Ichiro's motive for killing Master Gozo."

...The acting skills are not bad, and it seems that there is a bit of his mother's genetics.Bai Shu nodded inwardly.

Mariko ran to the side of the white tree, grabbed the stack of paintings, Qiu Jiang also came to look at it, and after a while, she saw the problem, "In these paintings... why is there Xia Jiang?!"
