"Bang!!"
Hearing the gunshot, Fang Zheng's heart sank.
MMP, I was just worried something might happen, but it actually happened! ?
At the same time, Naruhodō and another reporter hurriedly left the room and headed for the meeting room used for the séance of the spirits. Fang Zheng, Mingmei, and Xiao Ai also hurriedly stood up and followed them.
When the group returned to the door of the previous meeting room, the door of the entire meeting room was closed, and Naruhodo knocked hard on the door, but there was no response. Then he and the reporter pushed open the closed door and rushed in.
At this moment, everything inside the gate was completely presented to everyone.
In the middle of the meeting, Kirisaki Tetsuro was lying on the ground covered in blood, while a woman in a white robe was standing there with her back to the crowd, holding a pistol in her hand.
"I was... murdered."
A dark, eerie female voice sounded.
"This man... killed me..."
"Alas?!"
Seeing this scene, not only Naruhodō was stunned, but even Akemi and Ai were looking at this scene in surprise, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, the old lady with the dumpling on her head came over.
"Stand back, I'll handle this, you go call the police!"
"but……"
"Hurry up, the phone is in the main room!"
Under the urging of the bun-haired lady, Naruhodō Ryuichi was also flustered. He nodded and prepared to leave. However, at this moment, Fang Zheng's voice suddenly rang out.
"Everyone, don't move!"
"Why?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, everyone was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Fang Zheng, and the bun-haired lady frowned and looked at him.
"What are you talking about? This is a very dangerous time, you..."
"I'm Fang Zheng, special advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department."
Fang Zheng took out his ID from his pocket and silently showed it to everyone.
"Now there is a murder here. I am in charge of the entire scene. Everyone stays where they are and is not allowed to move."
"Don't be ridiculous! Lady Mayoi has been possessed by an evil spirit. If we don't deal with it in time..."
As if to verify what the bun-haired lady said, the woman in white slowly turned around, holding a pistol in one hand, and her body was covered in blood. However, the most surprising thing was that her face was completely different from the face of Mayoi Ayazato that Fang Zheng and others had seen before. She was completely another person!
“Huh?!”
Seeing this, the reporters around Naruhodō took two steps back in fear and quickly pressed the shutter button towards her.
"Could this be the spirit of the dead nurse?"
There is no such thing.
Hearing what the reporter said, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes. It was true that this place had spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy was extremely thin. It was hard to say whether ghosts could be produced or not. What about being possessed by evil spirits? Do you think this is a horror game?
The evidence is...
"Put down your gun, young lady."
Fang Zheng pulled out a pistol from his pocket and aimed at the woman in white.
"I am arresting you now on suspicion of shooting Kirisaki Tetsuro. Do not resist, or I will shoot."
“…”
At this moment, everyone stared at the woman in white. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, the woman in white hesitated for a moment, and finally put down the gun in her hand and stood aside obediently. Fang Zheng walked over with the gun raised, then took out the handcuffs and handcuffed the woman in white, then looked at Mingmei.
"Mingmei, call the police."
At this moment, the bun-haired lady's face suddenly turned pale.
After the police were called, they quickly arrived at the scene and began searching, so the next step was very simple.
The police found Mayoi Ayazato sleeping soundly in a box behind the screen. At the same time, they also detected the reaction of gunpowder smoke from the woman in white. After comparing the trajectory, they confirmed that the bullet that shot Kirisaki Tetsuro was indeed fired from the gun in the hand of the woman in white. There was no need to ask any more questions, as all the evidence showed that it was this woman who disguised herself as a psychic and shot Kirisaki Tetsuro.
As for her true identity and why she killed Tetsuro Kirisaki, we will have to wait until after the police interrogation to find out.
You see, this is the normal police process of solving a case, not like in detective novels, where they first consider the motive and then track down the criminal.
Although murder cases often start with the interpersonal relationships of the victim, in the end, the evidence must speak for itself. You can't be like a detective and just assume that a person's motive is whatever you think he is.
Since she was caught in the act, there was no need to say more. The moment the evidence was solid, the prisoner immediately collapsed and told everything. It turned out that she was the nurse who died in a car accident in the news, but in fact, it was not her who died in the car accident, but her sister.
As for herself, she was disfigured in a car accident and used her sister's photo during the plastic surgery, hoping to have a new start.
By the way, the medical accident that led to the death was indeed her responsibility for the wrong use of medication. No wonder Tetsuro Kirisaki has been shouting that it was injustice - but it’s useless to say all this now.
In fact, the nurse didn't want to kill Kirisaki Tetsuro at first. She initially just found Ayari Kimiko, the bun-haired lady, and hoped that she could help prepare a failed psychic. In simple terms, she just wanted to prevent Kirisaki Tetsuro from continuing to be entangled in this matter.
However, what the nurse did not expect was that this old lady herself was not a good person. After knowing everything, she turned around and used the nurse's secret to threaten her to obey her demands, which was to ask the nurse to kill Kirisaki Tetsuro, and then put the blame on Ayazao Mayoi afterwards. As long as they announced to the public that it was Ayazao Mayoi who failed to summon the evil spirit and killed people, of course the court would not believe the claim that the evil spirit killed people. Therefore, judging from the physical evidence, it could be confirmed that it was Ayazao Mayoi who killed people.
Moreover, Kimiko Ayazato threatened the nurse that if she didn't do as she said, she would expose the nurse's true identity. So the nurse had no choice but to follow Kimiko Ayazato's advice.
The original plan of the two was that after everyone found out that Kirisaki Tetsuro was dead, Ayari Kimiko would drive everyone else out of the room on the pretext of "performing a ritual to expel the evil spirit, hurry up and call the police". At this time, the nurse could take the opportunity to leave the meeting room and then set up the entire scene as a closed room where a murder took place.
Unfortunately... they didn't expect that there would be a special advisor of the Metropolitan Police Department present, and they were caught in the act. The subsequent series of plans... were naturally out of the question.
So this is the correct way to open it. How could such complicated plans designed by you prisoners succeed every time?
At this moment, Fang Zheng even had the urge to burst into tears - it was not easy, to be scientific in this unscientific land... It was really not easy.
As for the gun, Kirisaki Tetsuro carried it with him, saying that it was for the purpose of counterattacking the nurse if she attacked him. It must be said that his intuition was quite accurate. Unfortunately, the counterattack failed and he lost a blood.
In the end, both Kimiko Ayazato and the nurse were taken away by the police. After all, one of them was the mastermind and the other was an accomplice. The nurse, as an accomplice, might be sentenced lighter, but only God knows how long Kimiko Ayazato, the mastermind, will have to stay in prison.
As for the others...
"Thank you so much, Mr. Fang Zheng."
Wright held Fang Zheng's hand tightly, crying. It was not easy. He had been a lawyer for so long and finally met a reliable policeman. It was not easy. Thinking about the time he met Detective Gumshoe Keisuke when he was solving a case, Wright could only say... I am so tired.
If every policeman was as serious and responsible as Fang Zheng, he wouldn't have to work so hard in court every time.
"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me, Naruhodō Ryuichi. I promise to do my best to serve you!"
"Ah, well... I'll see how it goes..."
Looking at Naruhodō Ryuichi in front of him, Fang Zheng's mouth twitched. If possible, he didn't want to be Naruhodō Ryuichi's client. After all, most of this guy's clients were unlucky and wronged ghosts...
Speaking of which, that bastard Kirisaki Tetsuro, why didn’t he just find a lawyer? Why did he bring this unlucky guy here? Now, he doesn’t have to resign and can just go back to his hometown and get married.
But what is giving Fang Zheng the most headache right now is...
"Didn't you say no one would die?"
Ai stood next to him and complained silently.
"Could it be that you have also been affected by Edogawa's death aura?"
"...I said it's not my fault this time, do you believe me?"
"hehe."
Looking at Xiao Ai who was laughing softly, Fang Zheng was completely speechless.
A lifetime of fame was ruined in an instant.
The problem is that it really isn't my fault this time. If I had known that unlucky lawyer was coming, I would have definitely turned around and ran away!
After that, Fang Zheng and his team went to the police station to deal with the case. The woman named Ayazato Kimiko was straightforward and decisively admitted her crime. As for the motive for the crime, she said it was the old-fashioned dispute between the branch family and the main family. In Ayazato Kimiko's opinion, her daughter Harumi was more suitable to be the head of the Ayazato family, not Ayazato Mayoi, so she tried to design such a plan to put Ayazato Mayoi in jail, so that her daughter Harumi could inherit the Ayazato family...
After learning the truth, Mayoi Ayazato was also extremely depressed. After all, she was just a teenage girl, and she was framed by her family... This made Mayoi Ayazato very sad, and the one who was even sadder was naturally the little girl Harumi, after all, the criminal Kimiko Ayazato was her mother...
However, when leaving the police station, Ayazato Mayoi also expressed her gratitude to Fang Zheng, and said that if Fang Zheng had any questions about psychics in the future, he could come to her... Well, to be honest, Fang Zheng really had this idea.
After all, if he remembered correctly, there were certain supernatural settings in Naruhodō Ryuichi's "mystery set", like the little girl Harumi once transformed into Ayazato Chihiro. Fang Zheng especially wanted to see who would be the winner if this pair of psychic sisters and Conan got together.
But now...
“We’re going abroad!”
After Fang Zheng left the police station, he immediately told Xiao Ai and Ming Mei about his decision.
"Let's go on a trip abroad this time!"
He now understood that nowhere in Japan was safe. Away from Conan, there was now a Naruhodo. Now that Naruhodo had escaped, who would he meet? In order to have a peaceful holiday, Fang Zheng tried his best... People died every day in Japan, so I might as well leave here.
"Where are you going?"
"China!"
That's right, Fang Zheng has already made a plan. No matter what, China will never appear in Japanese mystery works. This time he just happened to return to China to take a look and take Mingmei and Xiaoai out to play. This time, he shouldn't encounter any murder cases!
In my hometown, I have it safe this time!!
