Zhang Tian will still sell the cinema to someone else, and Gu Qiao, whose dream has been robbed, will still hate him.
Just like Inspector Shiratori said, the first murder was stopped, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
A second murder is often difficult to prevent.
Yoruichi Toyama doesn't consider himself a qualified detective. The cases he's been able to handle so far have all relied on spoilers to get ahead, so he absolutely cannot let Furuhashi have a second chance to kill someone.
Zhang Tian, this guy who trampled on what others cherished for his own selfish gain, also deserves to be punished.
...Alright, let that puppeteer enjoy the show a little longer.
After adjusting her mood, Yoruichi Toyama met Inspector Shiratori's aggressive gaze once more.
“Indeed, Mr. Furuhashi could have defended himself in that way without evidence, but…”
"I think I still have evidence."
Yoruichi Toyama looked up at the projection window on the wall behind her.
With Yuriko's help, the film screening has been stopped, and now only the lights in the projection room are visible.
"Let me confirm first, Ms. Yuriko, when you went to the screening room just now, did you do anything other than stop the projector?"
Yuriko, who was suddenly asked the question, shook her head blankly, and then snorted after realizing who was speaking.
"No way! Guqiao cherishes his projection equipment like the plague, how could I just touch it!"
"That's good."
Yoichi Toyama didn't seem to mind her cold expression at all; he simply pointed to the projection window high up.
"Looking at this from here, does anyone notice anything amiss?"
"What is this? Just making a big fuss!" Yuriko muttered to herself, but then suddenly looked up in surprise.
"Huh? That...that window..."
“Right, that window is blocked.” Toyama Yoru nodded and pointed to the window she was referring to.
"Logically speaking, a window shouldn't be blocked when a movie is being shown."
“When using old-fashioned projectors, some long films would get too hot during screening, so they had to be split into two parts and shown on different projectors, which required different windows.”
He even gave a special explanation, which elicited a simultaneous "Oh" from the three members of the Junior Detective League.
Conan walked over discreetly and examined the area around the projection window.
"But this time the film wasn't cut into two parts, and when I went there, there was only one projector working."
Yuriko retorted.
"I don't understand the point of what you're saying. What's wrong with blocking a window?"
“Oh, I see,” Yoruichi Toyama said patiently. “I came in when the previous movie was halfway through, and I was looking at the projection window to make use of the light.”
"The previous film was shown through this covered projection window."
"Huh? Really?"
Yuriko was taken aback, wondering what the mystery was behind it.
"Look here, everyone!" Conan suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone looked at him and saw that he was standing directly below the blocked projection window, with a ladder next to him.
It's an iron ladder, probably for construction purposes, and it looks quite heavy.
“Mr. Zhang Tian was sitting in roughly that spot,” Conan pointed to the seat in front of him, “If you put a rope around his neck and pull the other end this way…”
Listening to his words, everyone imagined the scene and couldn't help but shudder.
If the rope goes through the ladder he pointed to, and then you pull it up forcefully...
Zhang Tian's entire body will be suspended in front of the projection window!
