"I thought you would focus on Mr. Mizutani. After all, he went back to this hotel last year to investigate what happened during the fire."
When Hattori Heiji learned about this, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
After all, the victim's family came here specifically to investigate the whole story of the fire and what happened upstairs at the time. All of this can easily lead to a bad guess.
for example……
"Back then, Nanako Motogami's death might not have been an accident."
The elevator can accommodate 7 people, but there were 8 people upstairs who needed to escape, which means that one person had to leave the elevator voluntarily or forcibly.
If Nanako Motogami's death was entirely due to the coercion of the other seven people, then...
Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan's expressions became a little ugly.
"Those confirmed dead so far include Shuhei Jinno, Shizuko Kaga, Masaaki Okakura, Azusa Kitajima, Kozo Zaitsu, Tsutomu Ryuuzaki, and one more person..."
If this was really an act of revenge as they thought, then another person would be killed...
"No."
Edogawa Conan whispered:
"I don't think it's that simple."
Like Hattori Heiji, his first reaction was to suspect Mizutani Kousuke.
But after seeing the photo of Motokami Kazuki, Conan Edogawa had other ideas.
"I once accidentally met Motokami Kazuki, and he..."
Edogawa Conan frowned and said hesitantly:
"He gave me an indescribable strange feeling." It was as if he was suppressing something.
Conan Edogawa knew that investigating a case required evidence, and he couldn't be sure that there was something wrong with the other person just because he thought the other person was strange.
But as a detective who often deals with various cases, his intuition was beeping again, constantly reminding him that there was something wrong with that man.
and……
"If the murderer was really Mizutani Kousuke, then why would he risk being discovered by taking an item from each of the deceased?"
Edogawa Conan muttered as he sorted out his thoughts.
After he finished speaking, Hattori Heiji's voice slowly came through the microphone.
"It's as if they were deliberately providing some kind of convenience for the police."
When they found items on Mizutani Kosuke that originally belonged to the deceased and then disappeared with their death, Mizutani Kosuke could no longer get rid of the title of murderer.
"This means he never intended to hide his actions from the beginning, but there is another possibility..."
"Being someone else's scapegoat."
