Chapter 152 Why haven't the police come yet? (Character Star Value Added 4)
"Yeah." Jiang Xia glanced at Hu Juyan on the ground.
This intelligent male college student obviously had not experienced the beatings of society. Compared with Okuda Tomiaki who was just at the villa, he seemed very easy to hit. After just a few hits, his murderous aura had already dropped by more than half.
Hattori Heiji had never seen such a scene of beating criminals. He was frightened as he listened to the teeth-grinding muffled sounds.
He originally wanted to go forward and pull Jiang Xia away. But when Jiang Xia beat people, he was not hysterical, nor did he look crazy, he just hit them with a stick in a very rhythmic manner. The action looked not only justified, but also a bit elegant. Hattori Heiji was frightened for a moment, and inexplicably felt that the traditional way of "hugging the person around the waist and pulling them apart" was not up to the standard, and he didn't know where to start.
And Hattori Heiji still had some questions - when he threw away Fujisawa Toshiaki who was attacked just now, he didn't see the attacker at all. How did Jiang Xia lock on the person of Tojuken? It shouldn't be that he just grabbed a lucky person in the dark... right?
Other guests also felt that it was not rigorous enough: "Are you mistaken? The deceased Miss Oki was his girlfriend!"
To Jiang Xia, knocking out the murderous aura and revealing the spoilers were both very skillful operations, and it was not difficult to do both at the same time.
"That should be correct." Jiang Xia thought for a moment and started from the beginning:
"Although Tojukento was far away in the lobby when Boss Jingu drove away from the garage, he was able to use the timing device to achieve his goal - that 'device' was the Boss's body after his death.
"After a person dies, the body will first become stiff and then gradually soften. As long as the body is placed in the driver's seat and the brakes are pressed using rigor mortis, the car will not move. Then calculate the time in advance and use the hot air from the air conditioner to speed up the softening process. In a specific time period, the body of Boss Jingu can be softened and the brakes can be released. In this way, without any obstacles, the vehicle will naturally drive towards the cliff.
"The second garage explosion case was probably originally intended to be used against Mr. Fujisawa, but since Ms. Ohki discovered that Tojuken was the murderer, this method was used to silence him. Its characteristic is that it is not very friendly to people who carry lighters with them...
"The car in the garage is leaking oil, our phones have been taken away, and there is no lighting equipment. When searching for the treasured book in the dark car, if she wants to light it, she will probably do what Mr. Fujisawa did just now..."
Having said that, Jiang Xia took out his lighter and lit it up with a click.
…
The others looked at the fire and the gasoline leaking all over the garage and instantly understood the cause of Oki Ayako's death.
Hattori Heiji suddenly understood why Jiang Xia said that Tojukento was the murderer: "Ms. Ohki said that she would give the murderer time to surrender, and then she went to the bathroom. When she came back, her attitude suddenly changed. She said that she was wrong and she didn't know who the murderer was. During that time, Tojukento was the only one who came into contact with her. He could have used the collector's book to coax Miss Ohki to change her mind... But how did you know?"
Jiang Xia took back the lighter and glanced at him: "I was also in the living room at that time."
"But at that time you..."
"I just don't feel like moving." Jiang Xia hit Hu Juyan with a stick and sighed, "I'm not blind."
Hattori Heiji: “…” That seems to be true.
At that time, Jiang Xia's presence was so weak that people thought he had no energy to collect clues. But who would have thought that Jiang Xia still figured out everything quietly.
Hattori Heiji had mixed feelings.
A few minutes ago, he was still wondering whether it was unfair for him to win over Jiang Xia in reasoning this time.
Now, he suddenly realized that he was thinking too much. He felt a bit sluggish, like when he was leading 99 meters in a 100-meter race, but just before the finish line, he saw his opponent flying directly from the starting point to the finish line in a millisecond.
Hattori Heiji: “…” Even with Jiang Xia’s fragmented mental state tonight, he can still solve the case faster than him... Is it that Jiang Xia is too strong, or is it that he is not as strong as he thought?
As Hattori Heiji thought about it, he suddenly had the urge to pack up his bags and return to school, never to get involved in the world of detectives again, and study hard to get into the University of Tokyo... no, to get into Osaka University.
…
After dawn the next day.
Several people walked through the deep forest, found other residents in the mountains, borrowed a phone and called the police.
This place is remote and it will take the police another hour or two to arrive.
Although a lot of the evidence was not sufficient, Hu Juyanren looked as if he had given up struggling. He curled up in the corner of the living room, and every time he saw Jiang Xia passing by his field of vision, he would shudder uncontrollably. At the same time, he deeply hated the police for their low efficiency: it had been so long, and they hadn't arrived yet...
Jiang Xia didn't pay much attention to Hu Juyan's look.
He successfully knocked off all the murderous aura, and also got two pieces of Shikigami - yesterday, Hu Shiyan couldn't stand the beating, and he took the initiative to review his murder process with tears and snot, and tried to analyze which steps might leave effective evidence. After saying everything he could, Hu Shiyan finally saw Jiang Xia put away the baton. At that moment, he almost cried with joy.
…
In short, for Jiang Xia, he currently cares more about Hattori Heiji than this guy who has been squeezed dry.
——I don’t know why, but this Kansai-san, who has a strong tendency to get excited, seems a little autistic.
He seemed to have suddenly lost interest in the case. Even when others were reviewing the case, he took out a homework book from his bag and started writing, looking like a good student who loved learning.
"..." Jiang Xia gradually developed a sense of crisis: If this goes on, what if Hattori Heiji retires from the detective world, how can he go to Osaka to visit him and take on cases?
He suddenly felt a little sad.
But soon, Jiang Xia thought of something that Hattori Heiji might be interested in.
——Kudo Shinichi.
Jiang Xia: “…” Hattori Heiji is not a fan of Sherlock Holmes, but he came specially to participate in the "Sherlock Holmes Journey", which shows that he has not given up looking for Kudo Shinichi.
In this case, it is better to let Conan get ahead of Hattori Heiji. In this way, Hattori Heiji will find his soul mate and may rekindle his passion for detective work.
And in this way, when Hattori Heiji invites Conan to go out and play in the future, Jiang Xia can go with him naturally...that would be wonderful.
Although this is a bit unfair to Kudo-san who was innocently exposed, Jiang Xia recalled the time when he wanted to pretend not to know Conan, but Conan insisted on taking off his vest to show him... He always felt that Conan probably wouldn't mind this kind of thing.
…
How to take off someone else's vest seemingly casually is also a technical job.
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and came up with an idea.
He recalled the look that Hattori Heiji had given Conan, and realized that Hattori Heiji had not yet been able to equate "Conan" with "Kudo Shinichi" simply because Hattori Heiji did not believe that "adults can become smaller."
In this case...
