Shinichi Takada clearly remembered that when he met with Belmode as the puppet master of hell the day before yesterday, he refused the mission of the black organization, but suggested that Belmode would use a certain person from the organization A member pretended to be one of the police officers handling the case, and today he met the disguised Matsumoto Kiyonaga. If this disguised person had nothing to do with the black organization, Takada Shinichi would not believe anything he said.

The meeting was about to begin. Everyone went to their seats and sat down. Shinichi Takada and Kogoro Mori sat on one side.

Fortunately, from where Takada Shinichi and the others were sitting, they could clearly see all the police officers present, so Takada Shinichi looked at each police officer carefully. He didn't watch carefully when he came in before. Now he wanted to know if anyone else had sneaked into this conference room besides Matsumoto Kiyonaga in disguise.

"Except for the sixth case, what the previous five cases have in common is that they were all stabbed with large knives. From the shape of the wounds, we judge that the murderer should have killed the deceased with a powerful swing of his right hand."

"It is suspected that these five victims were kidnapped with electric shock batons, then killed and abandoned where the bodies were found. However, a question arises here: why did the suspect take the kidnapped victim to another place to commit the crime?"

"Then, mahjong tiles with red circles, English letters written on the back and vertical black lines were found next to the six bodies. According to the analysis, this is obviously a message left by the suspect. Except for one tube, the red-painted parts of these six cards are in the four circles below the seven-tube card. The remaining circles on the upper right and lower left are not painted red. The English letters written on the back are two AE、H、Z, and L which should be reversed."

When Shiratori Rensaburo was explaining the case, Takada Shinichi discovered that among the many police officers present, in addition to Matsumoto Kiyonaga who was in disguise, there was another person who was also in disguise.

That police officer Takada Shinichi had never seen him before. I'm not an acquaintance of Shinichi Takada, but after discovering that the police officer was in disguise, and comparing the size of the police officer and Belmod, Shinichi Takada guessed that the police officer was most likely to be Belmod in disguise. But regardless of whether it was true or not Takada Shinichi didn't even think of exposing Belmod's disguise, because there was no need. The purpose of the black organization was just to get back the memory card that recorded part of the black organization's information. There was nothing to stop this kind of thing.

Bai Torisaburo continued:"In addition, one of the six victims in this murder case was taken away from each of the items they carried, including necklaces, pockets, amulets, motorcycle key rings, cosmetic mirrors and characters. Doll"

"Could it be that the victim accidentally lost it when he was kidnapped? Chiba and Nobu raised their hands to guess.

Shiratori Rensaburo objected:"This possibility is very low. Since all six people have lost one piece, it should be speculated that it is more likely that it was taken away by the suspect."

"This is indeed the truth."

Takada Shinichi secretly nodded and returned his mind to the case.

Shiratori Rensaburo continued:"There is also another message, that is, the death message of 'Tanabata, Kyo' left by the sixth victim Ryuzaki."

"The key lies in these messages."

Megure Thirteen said, this is why the police held this meeting to gather the wisdom of many senior police officers and deduce that the suspect and the victim each left messages.

Yokogawa Shigego guessed:"Ryuzaki His brake fluid may have been leaked at the Dajianshan rest stop, and he probably met the suspect there."

"Well, are you thinking too complicatedly?"

At this moment, Mouri Kogoro suddenly stood up and walked to his seat

"Mahjong tiles, don’t they just mean mahjong? The motive for the murder was a dispute over mahjong."

Takada Shinichi couldn't help but twitched after hearing this. How is this possible? However, many police officers who thought that Mouri Kogoro was a detective exclaimed in surprise.

Moori Kogoro was quite surprised at this time. He continued seriously:"The reason why the suspect left one and seven tubes behind is that there are eight people participating in the card game. In the seven tubes card, there are two circles that are not painted in red. One of them represents The suspect, while the other represents the final victim.

Mumu Shisan immediately asked:"So he will continue to commit crimes, right?""

"Yes, it should be."

Moori Kogoro nodded.

Shiratori Rensaburo said puzzledly:"But if you want to represent eight members, wouldn't it be easier to use eight tubes?"

"In fact, Yi Tong and Qi Tong have another meaning. The suspect originally wanted to use these two cards, that is, Yi Tong and Qi Tong to listen to the cards, and they are absolutely good cards that can be reversed in one go."

Moori Kogoro said with a high pitched voice and seemed a little excited.

"Makes sense!"

Henggou Shenwu immediately agreed:"But the situation was broken in an unscrupulous way, so the suspect became angry, right?"

"That’s absolutely right!"

Hengmou understood the rather unreliable reason for the murder, but Mouri Kogoro immediately nodded.

"According to my guess, the other people may be very unscrupulous, so the suspect couldn't bear it anymore. This should be the suspect's motive for committing the murder."

"Excuse me."

Ogino Ayumi, who was sitting in the front, raised his hand and said:"How should we explain those English letters?"

"And why move it to another place to kill?"

Yamato Gansuke asked immediately.

"Also, how should we understand Ryuzaki’s death message?"

The next person who raised his hand to ask a question was Takagi Wataru.

"this...This is it...."

Mouri Kogoro was stunned immediately. He couldn't explain any of this. He always said whatever came to his mind and didn't think so much or concretely. Now he couldn't explain what the rest of the messages meant.

"These questions are what we need to think about and investigate."

Takada Shinichi stood up at this time and spoke out to help Mouri Kogoro out:"There are still two places in the seven tubes that are not painted red. In my opinion, it is very likely that two more victims will appear. Also, what Master Maori said about playing mahjong reminded me that these victims should have known each other, or met at a certain place at a certain time, and then were killed by the suspect because of something."

"As long as we investigate when and where the six victims appeared together, and then start the investigation, I believe we will find something."_
