Chapter 741: Methods of Destroying Evidence



At 12 noon, the sun was shining brightly, but the wind blowing across the rooftop made everyone shiver in boredom.

"Fishing line tied... to a rope?"

It was the first time that Takagi Wataru had heard of this method of committing a crime, and his mind was as confused as a bowl of paste:

“Why tie fishing line to a rope?”

"fool!"

Sato Miwako couldn't bear to watch it anymore and shouted:

"Loose knot, loose knot! Didn't Sakaki Makoto just say that?"

“What is the purpose of rock climbing noose?”

"It can quickly retract the rope...I see!"

Takagi Wataru finally realized that he was not stupid, but he just couldn't think straight sometimes:

"After the mechanism is triggered, the prisoner only needs to pull the rope that has been prepared in advance, and the rope tied to the dummy will fall off naturally!"

“This way, the dummy will fall down, while the ropes and reflective cloth will remain in the air!”

"That's not right..."

He suddenly blinked and said blankly:

"No reflective cloth or rope was found at the scene. Could it be that they were taken away by the criminal?"

"Takagi..."

This time, not only Sato Miwako, but even Megure Jusan was desperate for him:

"The surveillance camera did not capture the prisoner climbing onto the rooftop..."

“Where are the reflective fabric and ropes?”

"Following the second dummy, it floated away with the wind."

Sakaki Makoto's voice attracted everyone's attention, and no one noticed that Miss Miyano quietly left the rooftop:

"Throughout the process, the criminals used two dummies, one hanging from the edge of the rooftop, half-covered with reflective cloth, and one hidden in the prop room, tied with a belt."

"Officer Takagi found it incredible because the criminal used the terrain and weight difference to create a smoke bomb."

Walking along the rooftop, he came to the right edge and pointed to the bushes below:

"The fishing line was the murder weapon. When the deceased lifted the flower pot, the dummy would fall down, causing the fishing line to cut the deceased. At the same time, the rope tied to the dummy would cause the dummy to fall for a period of time before stopping in the air."

"This is a murder method. What the criminal will do next is to destroy the evidence."

"After climbing up to the prop room on the fifth floor, he worked with his colleagues to lift another dummy and carried it out of the window. Then he picked up the hook that had been made on the wall in advance, and put one end of the rope on the dummy's belt. He just had to swing it hard..."

"The dummy will swing with the help of the fulcrum created by the roof railing. Under the traction of the rope, dummy No. 1 tied with fishing line will rise rapidly. When it reaches the top, the prisoner pulls another rope to untie the noose..."

"Under the action of inertia, dummy No. 2 loses its fulcrum and flies away with the untied rope, reflective cloth and fishing line, while dummy No. 1 falls heavily! The criminal only needs to retrieve the hook on the wall outside to complete the crime."

"Wouldn't the evidence disappear in this way?"

Oh shit!

Takagi Wataru looked at Sakaki Makoto in astonishment, wanting to say something but unable to utter a single word.

This modus operandi...

It's too bizarre.

Mizuno Rena looked at Sakaki Makoto with great interest. She knew what Sakaki Makoto was capable of, but after seeing it with her own eyes, she realized...

The abilities they have shown are just the tip of the iceberg.

Completely overshadowed Kogoro Mori.

Or rather...

Ever since being scolded by Miss Miyano, Kogoro Mouri has become as wilted as a day lily.

"hateful!"

Mao Lilan heard Conan mutter:

"He's been tricked again!"

"I can solve the case..."

"Conan, what are you talking about?"

"Oh no, I mean Brother Makoto Sakaki is so awesome!"

"oh..."

"Wait a moment!"

After hearing the reasoning, Megure Jusan suddenly asked:

"Why did dummy No. 1 rise up under the traction of the rope?"

"Haha, Inspector Megure you are really stupid!"

Takagi Shigeru finally got the chance, but he completely forgot that the other party was his boss and complained loudly:

“The weight difference!”

"As long as dummy number 2 is heavier than dummy number 1, won't it be possible to complete the crime?"

"Takagi, you are very smart..."

Megure Jusan said dimly.

"That is... Hey, Officer Sato, why are you poking me?"

Takagi Wataru looked back in surprise and joy, thinking that his and Sato Miwako's romantic period had come to an end.

I didn't expect...

Miwako Sato frowned and shook her head at him, signaling him to shut up:

"Mr. Sakaki Makoto, if the dummy took the fishing line, why did we find the murder weapon on the rooftop?"

"I'm afraid the prisoner himself didn't expect that."

Sakaki Makoto said:

"Being strangled by the fishing line, even if Saito Aida was still alive, he would definitely let go of the flower pot in his hand, and after the flower pot broke..."

"The fishing line tied to it just naturally fell off."

"But surprisingly, the dummy accidentally broke the fishing line during the fall, leaving the evidence behind."

"I'm right, aren't I, Mr. Yamaguchi Yoshio?"

At this point, anyone can tell who the criminal is.

The program crew members looked at Yoshio Yamaguchi and could not believe that their everyday colleague would actually commit murder.

Put yourself in their shoes. If they were cuckolded for no reason and had to raise someone else's child, would they kill someone in anger?

It is easy to accuse anyone from a moral high ground, but if you put yourself in their shoes, the situation may be different.

"Mr. Yamaguchi..."
