Chapter 12 The End
"I've always known that Mihui and my husband are having an affair, but I love him so much and I don't want to expose this..." Caitlin covered her face and cried, looking like a complete victim.
"You should know that he forced me to do it."
After saying this, Asai Mie lowered her head, her expression could not be seen clearly, and she stopped talking. It seemed that she didn't care that her pain was exposed.
After investigation, Asai Mie's suspicion increased. Then, the police found out that Robert had stolen a watch from Yaheng three months ago and sold it for more than 100,000 yuan, plus the information left in Yaheng's phone.
The three of them talked back and forth, and the children pieced together the clues they had collected at the scene.
"Strangely placed chairs, small holes in the blanket, and marks on the cabinet by the door..."
Shuji, Tsunayoshi and Tetsuya came down from upstairs, walked around the detectives at the scene, and swaggered past Kudo Yusaku, heading straight towards the direction where the three suspects were.
Caitlin's eyes were red with tears, Mie Asai looked dazed, not knowing what she was thinking, and Robert looked annoyed.
One of Tsunayoshi's abilities is called super intuition. The system has not explained it in detail, but it is certain that this ability surpasses theirs in biological information processing.
So when Tsunayoshi said that he thought there might be something wrong with all three of them, Shuji boldly guessed that the death was related to all three of them.
The autopsy report of Yaheng is out. There are steel needles in his head, impact injuries, and toxins in his body.
Kuroro just sent back a message that the detectives have found the location where the body was dumped based on factors such as wind direction and the direction of sea flow, and found a pearl earring at the location.
Among the three people, only Mie Asai wears earrings.
But she couldn't move such a heavy body by herself, and there were no signs of pulleys or dragging at the scene, so there must have been someone helping her.
Xiuzhi looked at the gloomy Robert, with his triangular eyes and high cheekbones, and he looked like a difficult person to get along with.
but……
Actually, I'm really scared.
I clenched my hands tightly, trying to hold back the trembling.
Before the painful smile could even appear on his lips, a slap on the back forcibly interrupted the spell.
Tsunayoshi blinked his eyes, "Aji, did you find anything?"
Looking back with a pair of mandarin-colored eyes, Xiuzhi let out a sigh of relief, "I found out, Robert is the ultimate murderer."
"Huh?" Tsunayoshi was startled, suspecting that he had missed more than a dozen episodes.
"That's him."
"Are you sure?" asked Kudo Yusaku.
Shinichi is confident: "It will definitely not go wrong!"
Judging from the traces at the scene and the autopsy report, the fatal wound of the victim Yaheng was a long nail on the back of his head, and the time of death was around 9:50 in the morning.
Caitlin first knocked Yaheng unconscious, then used a small mechanism to fix him against the door, and sent a message to Robert using Yaheng's mobile phone. The content was roughly: I have known for a long time that you are the original painter whose work I plagiarized, but I didn't tell you because I wanted to see your distorted face and the way you have to please me for money.
Caitlin was familiar with Robert's character. He had been suppressed for too long. The night before, he was ridiculed for his talent in painting when he was drinking with Yaheng. The next day, he felt dizzy and received this text message. He would definitely explode in an instant and go to find Yaheng. When he violently pushed open the study door, the unconscious Yaheng fell down and first hit the heavy chair that Caitlin had specially placed, triggering the mechanism on the floor. When he fell to the ground, the protruding long nails would pierce his brain.
After seeing the blood, Robert panicked and did not have time to think about it. His first reaction was to deal with the body. At this time, Asai Mie, who was arranged to go out to buy paint, came back. Robert had accidentally seen Asai Mie put drugs in Yaheng's food. Under threat, Asai Mie became an accomplice in dealing with the body.
Caitlin had a sufficient alibi. Xiuzhi and his friends, the staff at the lost and found office, and the owner of the snack shop all had an impression of Caitlin. After Robert and Mie Asai left with the body, she went back to clean up the traces she left behind, then climbed out of the second floor and went out to buy something. It was not until the police notified her that something had happened that she ran over in panic. But it was because she was so clean that she was even more suspicious.
She was indeed smart. Even if it was finally known that she was the culprit for Yaheng's death, she could still escape a lot of punishment.
Shinichi sorted out his thoughts and was about to tell Chief Inspector Oliver, but he saw the tall and strong chief in high spirits coming over, holding Kudo Yusaku's hand, and gratefully said: "Thank you for troubling me, Mr. Kudo. Without you, I don't know how long it would take me to solve this case."
"Huh?!" Shinichi was dumbfounded.
What made him even more dumbfounded was that Kuroro and Hisahito were following behind Inspector Oliver.
"Why are you here?"
Kuroro: "Isn't Shinichi here too?"
"That's different." Shinichi said with dead eyes, "It's very dangerous here. I always come here with my father. Uncle Hachiyanagi isn't here, right?"
Hisahito poked his head out, "This is the detective mission Fukufu assigned to us."
Shinichi didn't understand.
A sudden scream interrupted his next question.
Something happened to the suspect.
Sheriff Oliver's expression changed and he hurried over, followed by a group of little tails.
"what happens!"
Seeing the situation at the scene, Sheriff Oliver's nervous expression froze, "This is..."
Mie Asai fell to the ground, and the police officer held her down and handcuffed her. Three children stood beside her, one of whom was holding a folding knife. Caitlin stood there with a pale face, and Robert was also handcuffed by the police officer while trembling.
Time goes back one minute.
After receiving the order, the police officer was about to handcuff the men, but the three refused to accept it. At this time, the originally quiet Mie Asai suddenly jumped up, took out a folding knife from her coat, and rushed directly to Caitlin's position.
Caitlin was already leaning against the wall, and now had no way to retreat. She could only look in fear at the blade that was getting closer and closer.
Then a foot appeared in Asai Mie's way, and Asai Mie tripped with a bang. The folding knife fell out of her hand and was picked up by a brown-haired boy who appeared from nowhere.
After failing to stab someone, Mie Asai gave up struggling and just stared at Caitlin with her black eyes until she was taken away by the police.
The matter is very clear.
Yaheng is a famous painter in recent years. On the surface, he seems to be in a glorious and decent position, but secretly he is doing all kinds of disgusting things.
Caitlin wanted to kill him because she was planning on taking Yaheng's property, and Yaheng's attempt to abuse her made her more determined that she must not let this dead man live.
Asai Mie is an international student. Her family is not well-off. She was able to study in the United States because of Yaheng's financial support. It is needless to say what Yaheng was thinking. Asai Mie has no power and influence, and she does not want to waste her years of hard work. She can only submit and secretly drug Yaheng. If Caitlin does not kill him, he probably will not live for many years.
Robert seems to have a good relationship with Yaheng, but he actually has a long-standing grudge against him. The painting that Yaheng first became famous for was actually plagiarized from him, but he is not as rich and powerful as Yaheng, so he can only suffer this loss in silence. When they met again many years later, Yaheng had long forgotten him. Robert didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually became friends with Yaheng.
"Then why did Asai want to kill Caitlin?"
"Because it was Caitlin who introduced her to Yaheng. It's just that Asai Mie couldn't believe it and exploded in the end." Shinichi said in a heavy voice, "When Robert and Caitlin were arguing, she accidentally said that Caitlin had found many women for Yaheng, and Asai Mie should be one of them."
Caitlin was very good to Mie Asai. When she didn't know that Caitlin was the one who dragged her into the abyss, Mie Asai had always been grateful and guilty about her feelings for her. Her emotions were so intense after she learned the truth.
Among the three people, the most regrettable one is Asai Mie.
"I didn't manage to kill Yaheng myself, so I felt unwilling." Xiuzhi yawned and added, "After all, I planned it for so many years. It's a pity."
Kudo Yusaku tilted his head when he heard this.
How to sentence these three people is a matter of law, and they don’t need to worry about the follow-up.
Shinichi gathered his good mood, "So why are you guys here?"
Sheriff Oliver turned a blind eye to the five children who suddenly appeared because the case had been solved, but that didn't mean he would just ignore it.
"Same as you, you are investigating the case and we are also investigating the case." Kuroro said.
Tetsuya nodded.
Shinichi was stunned: "So, it was you who solved the case and told Officer Oliver."
Tsunayoshi added: "To be precise, it was Aji who solved the case. We just helped find evidence."
"Shuji is really amazing." Hisahito exclaimed.
Shinichi: "No, I didn't see you guys at the scene?! When did you collect the clues?!"
The children smiled but said nothing.
There's no way to explain this. If I say anything, people will think they have watched too many cartoons and are just talking nonsense.
After watching the whole process, Kudo Yusaku patted Shinichi on the head and said, "Don't think about it. There are always people who are better than you."
Kudo Shinichi was deeply shocked.
He looked at Shuji: "Are you an armchair detective?"
Xiuzhi didn't want to say anything, his face was full of the three big words "what I want".
"That's not right..." Could it be that Dad gave them the clue and then Shuji deduced it?
Shinichi looked at Kudo Yusaku.
Kudo Yusaku just wanted to say don't look at him, he actually didn't know either, and his heart was full of doubts like his own son.
Before the kids showed up, he received a message from Ba Liu, which roughly said that the case had been solved, and the kids were afraid that the police wouldn't believe what they said, so they borrowed his name.
Then Sheriff Oliver came in and shook his hand gratefully. Kudo Yusaku looked confused but managed to remain calm.
With the father and son at a loss, the case officially ended.
A murder happened during the day, so everyone should have been very emotional, but we still went to watch the fireworks together at night.
The beautiful fireworks became the embellishment of the black satin, falling like gold powder.
Tsunayoshi supported his head under the fireworks.
Wow, what a wonderful feeling...
