Chapter 1436 1444 [Organization Card Helper]
"Although the color and details of the furniture here are somewhat different from those of 501 downstairs, when we arrived at the door of the apartment just now, I remember that the lights in 601 were not on." Jiang Xia said, "The deceased was in darkness at the time and was a little dazed. It was actually difficult for him to distinguish subtle differences such as color. He would have thought that he was lying in his own home at that time."
"Based on this layout, we just need to take advantage of the deceased's escape habits. Didn't the administrator say that the deceased had a habit of jumping from his balcony to the roof of the opposite building? If the administrator can find out, it will not be difficult for Mr. Kanda, his neighbor and 'good friend' who lives right above him, to see it."
Jiang Xia looked at Dr. Kanda and said, "The process may be like this. Before we meet at the cafe, you first go to the deceased's home, knock him out in some way, and then open the French window on the balcony of his room, so that the next person who comes in will have the illusion that the deceased left from there.
"You then secretly moved him upstairs to your own room, Room 601, turned up the volume on his cell phone, and came downstairs to meet me.
"We waited until we reached the coffee shop opposite where we had arranged to meet in advance. We agreed to go to the apartment with you. You called the deceased. On the surface, you told him that we were coming and asked him to prepare in advance. In fact, you threatened him by saying something like 'the people who threatened you are already at your door' when he was woken up by the ringing of the phone and was still confused. Then..."
At this point, Jiang Xia remembered something, paused, and turned to look at Amuro Toru.
Although Toru Amuro arrived late, he had already understood by now.
He said frankly: "Then it's time for me, the 'helper', to come on stage."
"Helper?!" Inspector Megure immediately grasped a key word from a pile of confusing situations, "So you are his accomplice in murder? Why would you do such a thing! "
Amuro Toru: "...I put quotation marks around the word 'helper'. Can you wait for me to finish?"
"Oh, you say it, you say it."
Amuro Toru retracted his gaze from the police, silently reminded himself not to get angry, and then continued in a calm tone: "I happened to be working part-time at the flower shop today, and the shop received an order - requiring a bouquet of flowers to be delivered to Mr. Yoshimura in Room 601 here at 7 o'clock tonight.
"The client specifically noted that it was a carefully prepared surprise and asked me to arrive on time. He also left a message saying that his doorbell was broken and asked me to knock on the door to remind him when I arrived.
"I tried it after I got here, and the doorbell was indeed broken. So I knocked on the door a few times and called his name, but no matter how hard I knocked, no one answered the door."
"I wanted to wait a little longer, but the store manager gave me another order, and it was almost time for delivery, so I went there to deliver the flowers first. When I went back to 601 to inquire about the situation, Mr. Kanda came out to answer the door and said that he had never ordered flowers. It must be someone playing a prank." Amuro Toru looked at the client and spread his hands, "You all know what happened next."
“…”
After a moment of silence, Conan hesitated and asked, "Your statement is very strange. 'I gave you another order.' In your eyes, this order from 601 is particularly special, and you came here specifically for it?"
"..." Toru Amuro felt a little complicated for a moment. He looked at the ages of Inspector Megure and the others, then looked at Conan: Maybe if they can hold on for another ten years, the future of the police will still be saved?
No, in fact, I just need to hold on until the Jiangxia session...
He was distracted for a moment, but quickly regained his composure: It's useless to think about these messy things now. Compared to this, toppling the organization is the most important thing.
Toru Amuro looked at Conan and perfunctorily answered his doubts: "In my eyes, the order from 601 is of course important, because when I talked about the phone call just now, I already knew that a murder had occurred here. If you asked me this question before the incident, I would think that both orders are equally important. The customer is God."
Conan: "..." It seems to make sense, but I always feel that things are not that simple...
As he thought about it, Conan turned around and looked at the others. Then he was surprised to find that he seemed to be the only one who was struggling with this word. He had no choice but to push his glasses up in confusion: Was he too sensitive? Thinking about it carefully, there were indeed some precedents in the past where his intuition gave crazy warnings, but in the end, nothing happened.
Conan said nothing more and fell into deep thought for a moment.
The surroundings became quiet again.
After the guest guest "Bourbon" finished speaking, Jiang Xia continued, "Although Dr. Kanda was in the coffee shop with me just now, after his threatening call, Boss Amuro, the 'accomplice', immediately knocked on the door viciously.
"From the deceased's perspective, he was at home at the time and the doorbell was not broken. In this case, the person who rang the doorbell impolitely and knocked on the door impatiently is seen as someone with bad intentions.
"Just after receiving the threatening phone call, someone came to the door to cause trouble. The deceased was easily misled and thought that the people he had been trying to avoid had come to his door. In panic, he tried to escape from the other side.
“In fact, there was a natural escape route in the deceased’s room, which was to jump directly from his balcony to the roof of the building opposite, and he seemed to have practiced for this in advance.
“He woke up from his coma, got up in a panic, and fled along the route he had discovered before.
"Because of the furniture that Mr. Kanda had arranged in advance, the deceased did not realize that he was actually on the 6th floor. The moment he stepped out of the balcony, he suddenly realized that he had stepped on empty air. In his panic and struggle, his slippers flew far to the roof of the opposite building, and he was unable to keep his balance and eventually fell to his death."
As Jiang Xia described, a complete process appeared before everyone's eyes.
Countless eyes were directed at Dr. Kanda, the owner of Room 601.
Kanda was sweating profusely, but he still said stubbornly: "This is just your blind guess! In fact, ordering flowers was just a simple prank, and Yoshida was always at home. As for the slipper on the roof that was too far away... it was because Yoshida suddenly had hysteria and thought that someone was chasing him at the door and on the roof opposite. So he threw a slipper to hit the person on the roof opposite, but found that he could not hit him at all. This fact finally made him collapse, and he jumped off the building shouting in despair!"
Jiang Xia: "..." This line of reasoning sounds familiar...
Just as he was thinking about it, Maori Kogoro touched his chin and was deeply touched: "This does make sense!"
Conan looked at him speechlessly: "..." Is this doctor your long-lost apprentice or something.
