After hearing Tang Ze's words, everyone was puzzled and didn't know what the trap Tang Ze was talking about was.
But as Takuya Masubuchi looked at Saori Ayukawa who remained silent and did not refute until now, his heart gradually sank to the bottom.
It seemed like everything was going in the worst direction.
"What kind of trap is this?" Yokomizo Shigego looked at Tang Ze anxiously and said, "Detective Tang Ze, please stop keeping us in suspense."
"Okay, I understand."
In response to Yokomizo Shigego's urging, Tang Ze smiled and said, "Although the detective didn't see anyone crossing the bridge between 10:00 and 10:30, at around 7:30, Miss Ayukawa walked down the path beside the bridge."
"But what does this prove? Even if she went there at 7:30, it has nothing to do with the case that happened at around 10 o'clock," said Yokomizo Shigeo, somewhat puzzled.
"Regarding this, let me first ask you to take a look at this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Conan, who had turned into a tool man and errand boy, was already holding a wooden board and handing it to Shigeo Yokomizo again under the angry gaze of Genta and Mitsuhiko.
This is our discovery, we found it on our ship! Why is Conan always the one getting all the limelight?!
Looking at Conan who attracted everyone's attention again, Genta and Mitsuhiko roared wildly in their hearts.
But unfortunately, Conan and everyone else who were busy with the case didn't pay any attention to the two of them, so the two little ones could only stand there helplessly and rage.
"board?"
Yokomizo Shigego held up the rectangular wooden board and looked it over. "But no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary board."
However, compared to Yokomizo Shigego's confusion, when Saori Ayukawa, who had remained silent since the conversation, saw the board, she looked at the wooden board with surprise.
"This was something that hit our boat while we were fishing in the Kuyasuji area. The location is basically the area where Kuyasuji meets the mainland."
Tang Ze pointed to a handkerchief tied with fishing line under the wooden board and said, "Ms. Ayukawa used this simple mechanism to kill Mr. Funaki remotely."
"Mechanism? How...is this done?" Yokomizo Shigeo looked at the wooden board he had picked up and couldn't figure out how this could kill people "through the air".
"Before that, let me first talk about this crucial handkerchief." Tang Ze picked up the handkerchief and said, "Look, has the fishing line made a small hole in the handkerchief like a 'hat'?"
"That's right." Yokomizo Shigego and others looked at the handkerchief and nodded.
"Okay, now that I've explained this in advance, let me tell you what happened in the whole case."
Tang Ze began to reconstruct all the details of the ruse: "First, around 7:30, Ms. Ayukawa walked across the iron bridge and came to the top of the cliff where Mr. Funaki was about to take pictures.
Then align the wooden board with the place where he wants to stand, hang half of it in the air, and press the other half with a stone, so that it is in a state where it can fall at any time, and the mechanism is set up.
At around 10:10, Ms. Ayukawa came to the other side of the iron bridge and faced directly above the head of Mr. Funaki who was taking pictures.
When the train arrived, Ms. Ayukawa threw out the lure, used the hook on the lure to accurately catch the small hole in the handkerchief, and pulled the board down, causing the stone to fall and hit Mr. Funaki.
I have to say this move is truly amazing.
At such a long distance, tying a lure allows something as small as a fish hook to accurately hook the small hole in the handkerchief to pull the mechanism.
The difficulty involved is extremely high, and the accuracy is off the charts. This is a killing technique that requires countless hours of swing practice to achieve.
If it weren't for a professional fishing player like her, it would be difficult for ordinary people to replicate this killing method even if they knew it.
After hearing Tang Ze's words, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that the criminal would use this method.
Even among the bizarre scientific cases, this can be considered a highly difficult method of murder.
"Even so, this is all just your guess." Takuya Masubuchi still argued for Saori. He really didn't want to accept that the other party would be the murderer.
"Mr. Trout, you already have the answer in your mind, right?"
Tang Ze looked at Takuya Masubuchi who was trying hard to refute him and said calmly: "When you heard that Ms. Ayukawa was going to Kutanisuji to fish, didn't you have any doubts in your heart? It doesn't seem to be the best fishing spot.
If Ms. Ayukawa wanted to win the championship, why did she choose a place like that…”
"These are just speculations! Is there any concrete evidence?" Takumi Takufuchi persisted.
"The evidence is that handkerchief." Tang Ze pointed at the handkerchief tied to the wooden board: "If that handkerchief belonged to Miss Ayukawa, there would be blood stains on it."
"Bloodstains?" Yokomizo Shigego unfolded the handkerchief and examined it. "I don't see any bloodstains on it."
"Last night, when Ayumi was accidentally injured, Ms. Ayukawa used a handkerchief to clean her wound. As everyone knows, blood cannot be completely washed away even with water.
Therefore, if we want to confirm that this handkerchief belongs to Ms. Ayukawa, we only need to have the forensic department conduct a bloodstain test on the handkerchief."
Tang Ze looked at Saori Ayukawa who had a complicated expression on her face and said, "I think Miss Ayukawa should be very clear about this and also know that if this handkerchief is found, it may be disadvantageous to her.
But she still did it because she felt uneasy about killing Mr. Funaki, so she made this choice.
