Chapter 1734 1742 [Who is instigating you]
However, when the ghosts looked around secretly, Jiang Xia discovered that except for Conan who was still staring at Amuro Toru with suspicion as usual, no one else obviously noticed this.
Maybe he noticed it, but I think it's normal for the boss of the detective agency where Jiang Xia works to have such observation skills. Anyway, no one suspected it.
Jiang Xia: "..." Well, it seems that for Toru Amuro, the police being too lazy to think is sometimes a good thing. At least the undercover identity is not easily exposed here...
…
Unlike the others who were thinking freely and leisurely, inside the room, Hashizume Akira looked very upset. He said angrily, "No, it's not what you said! I didn't peek at his plan, nor did I act according to his plan. How would I know he wrote such a bullshit!"
This statement is difficult to explain the similarity in their modus operandi, and the police obviously do not believe it.
But at this time, the fat police officer Chiba trotted over, nodded slightly to Jiang Xia and the others outside, and hurried into the interrogation room.
Not long after, Inspector Megure's extremely surprised voice was heard from the room: "What?!"
Toru Amuro also became curious about the case. He didn't leave in a hurry, but waited patiently to see what happened next.
So a few minutes later, another USB drive was inserted into the computer, which also contained an encrypted file.
After opening it, the cover that popped up had "Murder Plan" written on it, and the signature was also marked below.
Only this time, the signature was not from the deceased, but from Hashizume Akira.
"We found another murder plan from Mr. Hashizume." Inspector Megure came out of the interrogation room, feeling overwhelmed.
There is more than one strange person who wrote a murder plan to commit a crime. What is even more surprising is that: "Except for some minor differences in wording, the two plans are almost identical, with only the target of murder being different - the target of murder in Hashizume Akira's plan is the deceased.
"The two documents were written at almost the same time. They happened to go to two different places to dig up news that day. They had no contact with each other and the documents were locked. In other words, they should have written the plan without any communication, and wanted to hurt each other in the same way."
This unbelievable coincidence actually happened.
Officer Gao Mu felt a chill on the back of his neck. "This is really weird. This is too much of a coincidence."
Jiang Xia heard the key words and came back to his senses to comfort him: "You have to believe in science. The same thermos cup, overlapping sources of information, and understanding of each other's habits... It is not impossible for such a coincidence to occur."
"Coincidence" means that everything is possible, but the more rational people are, the more they want to get rid of this uncertainty.
Conan's heart was pounding, and a sentence came to his lips uncontrollably: "..." No, there was another possibility, that is, someone had contact with the deceased and the suspect at the same time, and guided them to repeat these two identical plans at the same time!
...But after looking at Amuro Toru, he swallowed his words.
Toru Amuro also thought of something and was frowning in thought: What Jiang Xia said makes sense, but the fact that the time for writing the plan and the time for monitoring are exactly the same is still very worrying.
…
The police took the new evidence to the inquiry room.
Hashizume Akira looked at his murder plan and finally his defenses were broken. He became completely depressed and held his forehead tightly with his hands:
"I didn't know he had written the same plan, I just wanted to kill him with my own...
"What happened yesterday was just as written in the plan - I deliberately took the wrong cup, asked him to come out to exchange the thermos cup, contacted the courier company, set up the camera, and then hurried to the bridge."
"But..." Hashizume Akira became excited. The fear and confusion he had suppressed so tightly were finally exposed to everyone. "But when I arrived, he was already dead! He was poisoned in exactly the same way I imagined!"
"At the time, he was sitting under the bridge, coffee spilled on the ground, and there was a hint of bitter almonds at the corners of his mouth. This way of death was exactly what I had planned... It was like a time-space dislocation, or like I was sleepwalking over to kill him! But only I knew that I hadn't done anything yet!
"I couldn't understand what was happening at all. I was just terrified. When I came to my senses, I had already run back home. Only then did my sanity gradually return. I immediately washed the poisoned thermos cup in my hand and threw it away. Then I waited until dawn this morning before I dared to get my camera. You all know what happened afterwards..."
He never killed anyone, but the deceased died just as he imagined?
This did sound a bit weird, and the police felt uncomfortable after hearing it. They had no choice but to pretend that this guy was lying: "Don't quibble. Even if you write a science fiction novel on the spot, it can't erase your crime!"
Amuro Toru remembered something, found the microphone, and whispered to Inspector Megure in the interrogation room: "Ask him why he wrote that murder plan, where did the inspiration come from, was it from movies or TV... or was there someone who instigated him?"
He had heard that there were cadres like playwrights in the organization, but so far there had been no clear direct contact with them.
And if the other party deliberately tampered with the live broadcast that he would participate in...
Although Inspector Megure felt that there were too many brothers involved in the case today, he was always a person who listened to opinions. He asked the criminal like a repeater: "Why did you write down that murder plan? Where did the inspiration come from? Was it from movies or TV, or was it instigated by someone?"
...Instigation?
Conan was startled and raised his head suddenly. Amuro Toru had just spoken in a low voice, and he did not hear clearly what this suspicious boss said. Only now did he get a glimpse of the clue from Inspector Megure's questioning.
To others, this question might just be a flash of inspiration from a detective, but to Conan, it was like throwing a huge stone into a pond - has this boss also heard of the "sir" the woman in black mentioned? Is he really connected to the Black Organization?!
However, those who know about it may not necessarily be members of the group. They may also be enemies. It is even possible that the woman in black has also come into contact with Toru Amuro.
All the traces were real, but they were too vague when he tried to grasp them. Conan felt his brain was overloaded when he thought of "that adult" - there were too many mysteries left by that guy, but now he hadn't even found a clear enough clue.
And now...
Conan moved to the one-way window, staring at the suspect in the room with bated breath, hoping to get some answers.
