Conan’s Corpse Picker

  Chapter 2159 2162【Two steps if nothing happens】Please vote for me (づど)

At this moment, on the screen, the dark and thin male character swept his leg and kicked the female character to the ground. The two characters "K.O" popped up on the screen.

However, no one in the crowd cheered.

It is very shameful for a man to beat a woman in Tokyo, even if the woman being beaten is strong enough to dismantle an excavator with her bare hands.

Some onlookers glanced at Officer Takagi with disdain: "You are such a policeman..."

Halfway through the conversation, he saw Takagi’s game screen and was suddenly startled: “Why did you lose?!”

The police department was startled, and after taking a closer look, they discovered that the screen of Officer Takagi was a page with a tragic failure, but on Judy's side was a big "Youwin!" with cool golden special effects.

Judy stood up, put down her helmet, and breathed out a sigh of relief: It felt so good! It would be great if Jiang Xia's character could be beaten like this by her, so that this high school student who refused to admit defeat would definitely pester her and beat her hard every day until Judy was overwhelmed by his relevant information.

Until then, everyone came to their senses one after another and understood what happened: "The male policeman chose the female role, and the foreign woman chose the male role?!"

Officer Takagi sighed and quietly defended himself: "Yes, I have been relaxing in my seat and not taking any action."

Jiang Xia nodded: "People are sometimes affected by inertial thinking and make some wrong judgments. For example, the deceased was called 'Caesar of Yoneka Town', and he usually only used the role of 'Caesar' to fight, and Mr. Shimizu's nickname was 'Lucas of Cupido Town' prefers to use the character 'Lucas'.

“So before the game started, ‘Caesar’ and ‘Lucas’ appeared on the big screen respectively. Onlookers who were familiar with the two people would think that the deceased chose Caesar and the other side chose Lucas.

"In this way, when they see Caesar beating Lucas violently, people will think that it is the deceased who is beating his opponent - but the real situation is exactly the opposite. In this game, the two of them swapped roles. The deceased used It was Lucas who was getting beaten all the time, and the other side was using Caesar who used that combo."

The Mumu Police Department finally understood: "In other words, the deceased was poisoned before the game started?"

Jiang Xia nodded: "This machine can not only control the character through the player's movements, but also feedback the attacks on the character to the player. When the player is in a relaxed state, once the character is beaten, the player's limbs will It will also be driven by the machine and show subtle movements - as long as you don't keep staring at the deceased, it will be difficult for anyone to find out that he is dead under the circumstances.

“So the process is probably that Mr. Shimizu went out to talk to the deceased before the game started. At that time, he inserted the poison needle prepared in advance into the body of the deceased.

“While the deceased was struggling to his death, Mr. Shimizu ended the current game and used the deceased’s machine to choose the character ‘Lucas’.

“After that, he only needs to go to another machine and choose Caesar to complete the role reversal.

“When the game was about to end, the ‘Caesar’ controlled by the murderer suddenly stood still. On the one hand, it was to create the illusion that the deceased was assassinated during the game, and on the other hand, it was also to create a draw.

“In the event of a draw, the prompt ‘Draw’ will pop up on both sides’ game screens, the screen will also dim to display gameover, and then the game will automatically exit. The difference between the two screens is very small.

“But if he wins or loses, the settlement interface will have a bleak ‘Youlose’ on one side and a high-profile ‘Youwin’ on the other side, which will easily reveal his flaws - just like Officer Takagi was discovered by others just now.”

 This way everything suddenly makes sense.

 Attacks focused on Shimizu Takayasu.

Shimizu Takayasu didn't expect that his carefully conceived strategy would be exposed like this. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he had not lost yet: "The murder weapon... you have no murder weapon and no evidence. This is slander!"

Officer Megure: "So can we search your body now?" Shimizu Takaho straightened up and his confidence returned: "Huh, search as you like, but if I can't find anything, I won't give up - you guys Just wait to be prosecuted.”

The Mu Police Department was so embarrassed by him that he was no longer confident. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Xia quietly: "Brother Jiang Xia, this..."

 Jiang Xia: “You can search me.”

Shimizu Takayasu smiled as if he had a winning chance.

Jiang Xia: "But it's not him, but the curly-haired clerk next to him."

 Curly hair staff: “?!”

He was at a loss for a moment and defended loudly: "I am not his accomplice, I am innocent!"

Jiang Xia sighed: "You did not know, but the murderer did use you to hide the murder weapon."

 “The murder weapon?” The curly-haired staff member felt that he had been wronged, “I really don’t have one!”

Jiang Xia: "Then take two steps forward."

The curly-haired staff member was startled, then hesitantly followed his instructions and took two steps forward. Because he was too nervous, his hands and feet were a little stiff, almost limp.

The Mumu Police Department was confused: "What does this mean? Did he hide the murder weapon in his armpit, so he didn't dare to wave his hands normally, so he walked out of this strange posture?"

The curly-haired staff member wanted to take off his clothes to prove his innocence: "I told you I didn't hide the murder weapon!"

Judy couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but interject: "When this clerk walks around, there is always a clicking sound on the ground. Is he wearing some trendy spiked shoes?"

Everyone was startled, and then they realized belatedly that this seemed to be the case.

　　The curly-haired clerk came to his senses and immediately jumped to look at the soles of his feet. After turning over like this, he discovered that there was something stuck in the indentation of the sole of his shoe.

Jiang Xia looked at the murderer: "After Mr. Zhishui committed the murder, he inserted the poisonous needle into a half-smoked cigarette. Then he stuck the cigarette on the tinfoil wrapper with chewing gum.

“Then he pretended to have dropped the lighter, and while he was picking it up, he held the piece of tinfoil gum up and put it in front of the big screen. After doing this, he sat on another machine and started the game.

“The scene started to be broadcast on the big screen, and everyone gathered around. In the chaos, the clerk who came to the front to watch happened to step on the tinfoil paper with the poisonous needle hidden.

“After the cigarette is deliberately hollowed out, even if it sticks to the soles of shoes, it will not hurt the feet too much. A careless person may not notice it at all.

“Even if you are a careful person, you will just say ‘no quality’ when you see the things stuck on the soles of your shoes, and then treat them as ordinary garbage.”
