Life reactions are extremely difficult to fake, but super-life reactions cannot be faked.
These two are important bases for criminal investigation.
This view is unanimously agreed upon by well-known forensic scientists from various countries, as well as police, detectives, mystery novelists and other practitioners.
If you want to commit the perfect crime, you can't start by faking a corpse, but...
Obliterate all traces.
Or rather...
Destroy all traces that could be linked to yourself.
Judging from Reiko Tsumori's body, the criminal was obviously not a master criminal.
Not only did he leave behind his own DNA, he also revealed his general appearance.
"Inspector Yokomizo, I heard that a similar case happened a year ago?"
After verifying the traces at the scene, the Shizuoka Prefecture police began to clean up the scene.
Seizing this opportunity, Sakaki Makoto asked about a case that also happened in Izu a year ago.
"right."
Inspector Yokomizo nodded:
"A year ago, also at the fireworks display, a woman with brown hair died from being stabbed in the abdomen with a sharp knife."
"and..."
"The deceased was also a tourist from out of town."
"I guess..."
Sakaki Makoto said expressionlessly:
"You also searched the hotel where the deceased stayed a year ago, just like you did today, but found no clues, right?"
"How do you know?"
"Nonsense, if the criminal is caught, will Tsumori Reiko still die?"
“.......”
Holding his forehead and sighing, Sakaki Makoto felt somewhat helpless about their criminal investigation methods that had remained unchanged for a century.
In the case a year ago, they solved it by searching the hotel where the deceased was staying, but found nothing.
A year later, the same case occurred, and their method was still to search the hotel where the deceased was staying.
There is no flexibility.
As the saying goes, if you don't advance, you will regress. When the criminals are keeping up with the times, the police are still standing still. There is no way they can catch the criminals!
"but..."
Inspector Yokomizo said excitedly:
"This time, there are skin flakes from the criminal in the nails of the corpse. As long as we can identify the suspect and prove that the skin flakes were left by him, we can solve the case!"
"In this case from a year ago, there were no clues left behind by the deceased's body?"
"No."
Inspector Yokomizo shook his head and said honestly:
"The body of the deceased was very clean at the time. Although there was a struggle, most of the traces had been erased."
Hearing this, Sakaki Makoto narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head and glanced at the corpse covered with white cloth on the ground, as if thinking about something.
Conan and Hattori Heiji held their chins with their hands and also fell into deep thought.
The criminal was obviously a veteran, and Reiko Tsumori was not the first brown-haired woman he had killed.
To be able to get away with it until now, he must be very cautious, at least not careless enough to leave any dandruff.
However...
Why was he so careless this time?
accidental?
still...
Panic?
Sakaki Makoto looked at Suzuki Sonoko:
"Ms. Sonoko, what are the physical characteristics of the strange man who approached you this morning?"
"Appearance..."
Suzuki Sonoko recalled:
"He was wearing an orange jacket, a head taller than me, with slicked back hair, and looked..."
"It's pretty handsome, right?"
"By the way, he has a great body too, with four pack abs!"
Well, the most profound impression is the four-pack abs.
Sakaki Makoto understood.
You know, Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Li Ran are not short, their height is between 170-172cm.
And there was a person at the scene who was a head taller than Suzuki Sonoko - Makoto Sakaki.
He is 183cm tall, so we can infer...
The prisoner's height will not be less than 180cm.
This is a big discovery.
In Japan, it is rare to find a man who is 180cm tall.
"The criminal is a head taller than Miss Sonoko, has a handsome appearance, participated in the fireworks display, and is strong and healthy..."
Inspector Yokomizo kept muttering to himself, glancing at Sakaki Makoto from time to time.
"......Inspector Yokomizo, you are not doubting me, are you?"
Sakaki Makoto laughed dryly.
"How could that be!"
Inspector Yokomizo waved his hands repeatedly, looking like a police officer who would never frame a good person or let a bad person go:
"I just feel that Mr. Sakaki Makoto fits the above characteristics perfectly..."
The two of them locked eyes, and after a long moment...
"Ha ha ha ha..."
"Hahahaha...Mr. Sakaki Makoto, please take off your coat and accept police inspection."
Several police officers gathered around.
grass!
He changes his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book!
"Inspector Yokomizo, Mr. Makoto Sakaki was with us last night. He can't be the murderer!"
Mao Lilan said:
"He had no motive or time to commit the crime!"
"Ms. Maori, I understand your desire to protect your companions, but..."
Inspector Yokomizo's face was solemn:
"As long as Mr. Sakaki wants to commit a crime, I believe he can do it."
"There are scratches on the criminal's body. If Mr. Sakaki is innocent, just take off your coat and let us check it!"
Sakaki Makoto: “….”
It sounds like I'm praising myself, but the context isn't right.
In order to eliminate suspicion, Sakaki unzipped his jacket and took it off...
Snap!
A heavy metal object fell to the ground.
Take a closer look...
Inspector Yokomizo and others were so scared that they stepped back with horror on their faces.
A pistol!
