"You're not right. If it was just a throat slash, a woman could have done it by taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness."
Just as Tang Ze was about to speak, a female voice spoke before he could, "Of course, the specific situation depends on the wound on the neck of this male corpse."
"You..." Seeing the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him, Maori Kogoro shouted in surprise: "Eri, why are you here!?"
"I should be the one asking you this, right?" Kisaki Eri looked at Maori Kogoro and asked, "The restaurant we agreed to have dinner at isn't here, is it?"
"This...well...is just a coincidence..." Kogoro Mouri crossed his arms with an unnatural look on his face, turned his face away and didn't dare to look at Eri Kisaki.
Obviously, the old tsundere Kogoro Mouri was still too embarrassed to say that he went to pick her up on purpose.
"Anyway, let's start investigating the fighter who had a grudge against the deceased." Takagi looked at Tang Ze who was examining the body and asked for his opinion.
In the crowd, a short-haired woman smiled strangely after hearing Takagi's words.
But the next moment, the hands behind the back suddenly felt like someone was touching them.
She turned around in panic, feeling guilty, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was a little boy who touched her hand.
"Big sister, are you from around here?" Conan asked with a smile as he looked at the woman who turned around in panic.
"Oh, yes." The short-haired woman nodded in response.
"I wonder if there is any beauty salon or barber shop nearby?" Conan asked in a cute tone.
"Conan, why are you suddenly asking about the location of the beauty salon?" Takagi was a little surprised, but did not question or ignore it.
Obviously, Conan's performance all along has made Takagi a tool imperceptibly. He subconsciously began to trust Conan's behavior and naturally asked questions.
"Because on the deceased's neck, in addition to blood, there were also many fine hairs."
Tang Ze, who had just finished examining the corpse, came over and said, "There are no injuries other than fatal ones on the corpse, so we can basically conclude that the victim had never fought with anyone before his death.
Considering the stray hair on his neck and the direction of the fatal wound on his throat, I suspect that the deceased, Nagasaku Shiro, was most likely cutting his hair before his throat was cut."
"So that's how it is." Gao Mu ran to the wound of the corpse and took a look, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face. "It seems that the deceased was most likely having his hair cut before he died."
"No, it is almost certain that the deceased was killed while having his hair cut."
Tang Ze pointed at the deceased's neck and said, "See the blood on the neck wound? Doesn't it look a little strange?"
What Tang Ze was talking about was the blood flowing from the wound. Generally speaking, after the blood flows, it should flow irregularly along the neck from the wound due to the gushing of blood from the carotid artery.
However, the blood from the wound on the deceased's neck formed a faint rectangle, and the dripping blood became thin lines of varying lengths.
This means that very little blood had been lost at that time.
However, if the carotid artery is cut, it will basically be in a state of bleeding, and there will be traces of blood flowing down, which should only appear at a very far position downwards.
But the deceased showed this symptom near the wound.
Considering that the area around the wound was not particularly regular, but it could be seen that it was a rectangular bloodstain and there were some broken hairs nearby, it was basically confirmed that the deceased was being sung while having a haircut.
"Indeed, even though the deceased was a martial artist with great martial arts skills, he was completely defenseless against the barber."
After listening to Tang Ze's explanation, Gao Mu suddenly realized: "The other party can easily hold the weapon close to the other party's throat. Even if the weapon is well chosen, there may not be any reaction even if it is close to the neck."
For example, the old-fashioned razor that can be folded into the handle is still used for shaving.
This kind of knife is too deceptive. I am afraid that the deceased will only realize that he has been killed at the moment his throat is cut.
"I see."
After hearing what the two had discovered, Maori Kogoro, who was standing by, stroked his chin and pondered, "So, the culprit is most likely a strong barber or beautician?"
"Indeed, it is not an easy task to dispose of the body of a man weighing 90 kilograms."
Gao Mu agreed and immediately looked at Tang Ze and said, "Then I will immediately take people to check the nearby barber shops or beauty salons to see if there are any people who meet the requirements."
"That's not necessary."
Conan smiled and pointed at the short-haired woman with an ugly face not far away and said, "Just ask this sister. She should be the beautician nearby~"
"She has the unique scent of a beauty salon. She must be a practitioner from around here." Tang Ze praised: "Your vision is as good as ever."
"What...what's going on...something's wrong, this is wrong!!"
The short-haired woman looked at the two men, one big and one small, with a look of fear in her eyes. She screamed frantically in her heart: "What the hell is going on!!!"
Originally, the criminals and the man with the mustache were still thinking about investigating in the direction of her conspiracy.
But the two men, one big and one small, in front of her revealed all the truth in just a short moment, which put her under tremendous pressure.
Seeing that the two of them easily revealed her identity as a beautician in a few words, the woman's inner anxiety began to surge.
