Chapter 2932 2944 [Search for Guns]
Officer Sato slammed his palm and understood: "When he stabbed himself, he was holding the knife in an underhand grip. There is no reason why he suddenly turned to an underhand grip when he drew the knife... It seems that just as Jiang Xia said, after Takagi left, another person came here, stabbed Ogura Chizo to death, and then threw the knife aside, trying to fake a suicide scene."
Officer Takagi scratched his head, feeling that something was not right: "But before I left, I clearly saw Chizo Ogura stabbed himself in the stomach, bleeding profusely, and just like Officer Sato said just now, there was only one knife wound on his body..."
Jiang Xia pointed at Ogura Chizo's right hand that fell by his side and said, "Look, blood is dripping from his hand that holds the knife. But the blood splashed on the floor and on the knife is obviously much thicker."
"Hmm?" Officer Sato took a closer look at Chizo Ogura's hand. As expected, the more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong. "This blood is really strange. The fluidity is too good... Wait, is there heparin added to it?"
Heparin is a well-known anticoagulant substance that is widely used and is effective both in vivo and in vitro.
Realizing this, the truth seemed to be at hand. Officer Sato touched his chin like Jiang Xia and thought, "After blood leaves the body, if it is not stored properly, it will coagulate quickly. At this time, if heparin is added, it can maintain its liquid form - that is to say, the blood on Chizo Ogura's hand is most likely not his own, but someone deliberately brought it into the car. That person should be the murderer who killed him."
Jiang Xia nodded: "It seems that before being arrested, Chizo Ogura and his accomplices reached some kind of agreement - in order to prevent Chizo Ogura from betraying himself, his accomplices promised to rescue him, and the rescue plan they agreed on was to let Chizo Ogura "commit suicide" in front of the police and fake his death to escape.
"After the Shinkansen reached the appropriate position, the murderer first used a fake bomb to lure away Officer Sato, then he passed by Chizo Ogura's seat and sent a signal to the arrested accomplice in some way.
"Ogura Chizo got the hint and immediately asked to go to the bathroom. After entering here, he successfully found the blood bag hidden by his accomplice and the special retractable knife.
"The noise of the train passing through the tunnel effectively concealed the noise he made when he was operating this plan. Soon, Chizo Ogura successfully "committed suicide" in front of Officer Takagi.
“Because there was no one else passing by, in order to save the suspect in time, Officer Takagi had to leave temporarily in a panic, leaving Chizo Ogura here alone.
"While he was going to call for help, Chizo Ogura's accomplice took the opportunity to go into the bathroom.
"But this accomplice did not rescue the man as agreed. Instead, he jammed the retractable function of the switchblade and stabbed Chizo Ogura to death with it, turning this fake suicide into another kind of 'fake suicide'."
Vodka: "..." That's what he said. There would never be anyone committing suicide on Uzo's stage. Even if there was, it would definitely not be staged in a way that looks like a suicide scene at first glance.
On the other hand, if some scenes look like suicides at first glance, then they are definitely murders with a conspiracy - just like today.
Having successfully verified the theory he had come up with, Vodka took a deep breath and felt refreshed.
In contrast, Calvados next to him had a gloomy look on his face.
——He had never expected that Chizo Ogura, whom he had tried so hard to kill, would die so cleanly and suddenly.
Things seemed to be going his way, but for some reason, Calvados did not feel the joy of having achieved his goal. It was more like he was trying his best to overcome countless obstacles and difficulties, and just before he was about to cross the finish line, a guy came from nowhere and swept past him in front of him.
——The fruits of victory did not come from his own efforts, but rather it seemed more like fate could not bear his repeated embarrassing failures, so it casually gave him a little charity, like giving alms to a beggar.
...Just thinking about this inexplicable "mission success" makes people want to kill.
Of course, as a rational adult, Calvados's sudden change in mood was certainly not just because his target was robbed.
What's more troublesome is that suicide is fine, but if Chizo Ogura was really murdered, it means that there is a murderer hiding on this moving train. In other words...
"Search the luggage in the car. We should be able to find the evidence we need."
Under Calvados's gloomy gaze, Jiang Xia casually threw out this sentence that made his heart beat faster. The famous detective looked at the clean and tidy inner wall of the Shinkansen and sighed in a good mood: "This is a perfect huge secret room that not only trapped the dead, but also the murderer."
Vodka: “…” Yes, yes, it also trapped your gun and the Calvados that you were targeting.
"Yes." Unlike the members of the shady organization, Miwako Sato's eyes lit up when she heard this: losing a drug dealer is bad, but if a murderer and his accomplice is captured, then the police will not only be able to get back the lost drug dealer, but will also gain a murderer at the same time - rounding it off, isn't that a profit?
"Speaking of which, the murderer not only stabbed Chizo Ogura, but also pulled out the knife in order to make him bleed to death as quickly as possible."
Officer Sato used his rich experience to his advantage: "This method of killing will definitely cause a lot of blood. Even if he changed his clothes later, there is no way to deal with the bloody clothes on the train... Takagi."
She turned to her unreliable partner and said, "Ask all passengers to return to their seats, and then notify the flight attendants to help us check the luggage."
Calvados: “…”
…
The onlookers were driven back to their seats.
Officer Sato put on gloves and was about to search from near to far, but at this moment, a hand tugged at her sleeve.
Sato Miwako turned around in confusion and saw Jiang Xia whispering, "Actually, there's no need to search the entire car - we can listen to what the witnesses say first."
He just wanted to use the search as a cover to make Calvados lose his composure and hide the gun somewhere else.
As for whether to actually search for the gun once it’s hidden... the answer is of course no - what if the gun is accidentally discovered by some mini detective?
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia looked at Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko: "From your position, you should be able to see this corridor. During the time of the incident, did you notice anything unusual?"
"Well..." The two high school girls looked at each other, "We are indeed a little curious about Officer Takagi and the suspect, so after they entered the tunnel, we kept an eye on this side - only Officer Takagi came out of the tunnel, no one else."
