Conan the Hell Puppet Master

At this time, Katis's voice came from the communicator again, and then the lights of the room on the far right on the first floor came on.

"finished!"

In fact, this matter seemed a little boring in Gao Yuanzhao, but the onlookers downstairs, including Xiaogoro and others, saw this big ""

Words are a little excited.

But their excitement didn't last long.

"boom!"

There was a gunshot, and the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows of a room shattered. When I heard it downstairs, the faces of the people who saw it changed.

"That sound...was a gunshot!"

Kogoro was a little uncertain, but Gao Yuanzhao had already rushed towards the building, and Conan followed closely behind, his two short legs spinning like a fan.

While running, Conan also heard gunshots on the other end of the communicator, and the panicked three people reminded them in English.

"stay on the spot."

The room with the broken glass is the third room from the left on the second floor, a room that does not need to turn on the lights.

A group of people rushed to the front of the room, the door opened with a twist, and then they saw a middle-aged man lying in a pool of blood.

"This guy is the former... newspaper reporter."

Heiji recognized the person lying in a pool of blood at a glance, and just wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Gao Yuanzhao.

"This is Osaka. You'd better call the police first. Conan and I will investigate the body."

That being said, Conan actually ran to the corpse one step faster than Gao Yuanzhao, and because of his short stature, it seemed a bit strange to see the deceased's movements when he lowered his head.

The fingers of the right hand seemed to make a strange gesture, the left hand was pressed down, and the whole person was lying on the ground in a back-up position.

There was also a revolver beside the deceased, which seemed to be the murder weapon this time.

Gao Yuanzhao turned on the light, but did not investigate the scene carefully, he just looked at Conan who was seriously analyzing the case, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

For today's Conan, the gap between happiness and pain is too close. What Gao Yuanzhi thinks is that when he sees Conan's distressed appearance, what expression should he make? Officer Otaki rushed to the scene.

Since this was a case reported by Heiji, Heizang also gave a special order to Police Officer Otaki to make more reference to Gao Yuanzhao's opinion, so after a simple on-site investigation, he reported to Gao Yuanzhao.

"The deceased was Ed Mack, a 48-year-old journalist based in Chicago, USA. The cause of death was a shot in the chest. The gun used by the murderer should be the one next to it... Smith & Wesson revolver, scene, with signs of struggle, the deceased was in Shot: Should have struggled for a very short time afterwards."

Chapter [-]

Regarding Otaki's report, Gao Yuanzhao didn't say anything, just said something with emotion.

"A revolver!"

Afterwards, he signaled Officer Otaki to follow the rhythm he liked, and he would not overwhelm himself.

Seeing Gao Yuanzhao express this way, Otaki's impression of Gao Yuanzhao was much better, he was not polite, and directly asked the time when Hattori heard the gunshots.

"It was about 8 minutes past 5 o'clock in the evening. At that time, we happened to be outside when we heard gunshots, and then saw the glass in this room shattered, and we rushed over immediately."

"You are outside, are you ready to go home?"

Officer Otaki asked curiously.

"No, we were entrusted by the three people who stayed at the hotel at the time, outside the hotel, to help them confirm whether the lights in the hotel room were combined into this letter."

"The three people who stay here refer to those three people?"

Otaki noticed what Heiji said.

"Those three..."

Heiji glanced at Conan, who bowed his head in thought, and continued.

"Of course... the three 3 owners of the restaurant, former boxer Ricardo Barre, former MLB pitcher McNord, and former European famous football player Rekatis."

"As you said, it was...they were running the lights in the building."

"Yes, Katis is responsible for five rooms 55 on the first to second floors, Nord is responsible for four rooms 44 on the second to third floors, and Rika is responsible for two rooms on the fifth floor. The three of them went up at the same time."

"In other words, those three people may have committed crimes."

Otaki just finished guessing, and Kogoro also came over.

"I think it's possible, because the three seem to be disgusted with the reporter."

"impossible!"

Conan suddenly shouted loudly, and when he noticed that everyone around him was looking at him with strange eyes, he smiled and scratched his head.

"I think, at that time, these three people were very far from the dead person's position, and it was impossible for them to commit the crime, right? Uncle Zhao."

Gao Yuanzhao also "tells the truth" looking at Conan's eager expression

"Yes, the crime scene is the third room from the left on the second floor, and Mr. Katis's position was the fifth room from the left on the first floor. He was turning on the light, and Mr. Nord happened to be the third room on the third floor upstairs. He also opened the curtains, and Mr. Rica was on the fifth floor, turning off the wrong light."

"Yes, yes!"

Conan nodded.

"We just... when the three of them finished the last step and celebrated the completion of the '' word combination, they heard gunshots after about five seconds 5, and then about three seconds 3: , and saw them exploring from the balcony. Born, in such a short time, it is impossible."

"Eh..."

Otaki was frightened by Conan's aura, and coupled with the precise time Conan said, he also had some doubts about his previous speculation.

Kogoro, who was inherently unstable in temperament, also straightened up his third favorite conclusion - outsiders committed crimes.

"I see, it must be done by an invited guest. After all, this is a paparazzi who makes up fake news, and there must be many people who hate him."

"It must be so!"

Ji also supports Kogoro's argument.

"Because a lot of people heard the gunshots and saw the glass shattered, so not long after I, Brother Heiji, and Uncle Teru arrived in this room, many people followed, and the murderer was probably hiding there. ."

Conan pointed to the closet at the entrance.

"If the murderer is hiding here, it is also possible to go out together in the crowd while a lot of people are watching."

When Conan said this, Otaki thought it was quite reasonable, and pondered while holding his chin.

"In this way, every guest present is suspect, so it will be troublesome to find the culprit."

"Actually, we still have some hints!"

Gao Yuanzhao walked to the corpse, pointed to the right hand of the deceased, some lifted the deceased, and showed the left hand of the deceased to everyone.

Except for Conan Heiji, who had noticed it for a long time, the rest of the people discovered that the right hand of the deceased was stretched out with three fingers of thumb, index finger and middle finger, while the left hand was holding the belt tightly. .

"This is..."

Otaki responded immediately.

"Yes, I think this should be the death message left to us by the last struggle of the deceased."

Heiji frowned and walked over to the corpse.

"But what does this gesture, and holding the belt, mean?"

"Hey, why does it have to be a belt?"

He Ye is a little weird.

"It could also be pants, or maybe he's going to pull the belt out for others to see..."

"and many more...!"

Gao Yuanzhao gently knocked He Ye's head with a hand knife, stopping He Ye.

"Ladies, it's better not to say that... noun."

"Yeah, Idiot and Ye!"

Pingji made up the knife path without looking back.

"I know you want to say fat times, but if you want to refer to that thing, you can put your hands on the edge of fat times!"

A Tender Reminder, A "Dumb"

To ridicule, the strong contrast between Gao Yuanzhao and Heiji made He Ye couldn't help using Gao Yuanzhao as a cover, sticking out his tongue at Heiji, looking very cute.

But he didn't pay attention to all this, his eyes only wandered between the corpse and Conan, he always felt that Conan was a little abnormal today.

"Snapped!"

Kogoro clapped his hands.

"I know, the murderer is Mr. Rika, the boxer. The belt that the deceased refers to represents the gold belt, which symbolizes boxing's highest honor, and the gesture of the right hand refers to the three, which is what Mr. Rika is used to in the first . . . ."

Speaking of this, Kogoro himself got stuck, because... "Mr. Rika is used to knocking down his opponent at 33 in the third round, Kogoro, this is what he said!"

Gao Yuanzhao "goodwill"

reminded.

"exactly!"

Kogoro scratched his head embarrassedly, and then changed his words.

"That...3 should refer to Mr. Katis, after all, he has participated in professional leagues in Italy, Spain, and the United States in three countries and won the championship."

"how could be"

Hearing that Kogoro doubted his idol, Conan quickly retorted.

"Cartis also won the Prime Minister's Cup in the UK!"

"This..."

Kogoro was stunned and speechless, and changed his words.

"That should be Mr. McNaod, after all, isn't the most hope of a pitcher is to strike out the opponent and also use those three fingers to hold the ball."

In a short period of time, three rhetoric have been changed, and compared to the abnormal Conan, Kogoro is still as stable as ever.
