Chapter 3186 3198 [Case Closed]
The deputy captain snorted and interrupted, "You're getting off topic. What does the mess in the mayor's house have to do with me? Compared to that, aren't we looking for the murderer now? What makes you say that I'm the one who killed those guys?"
Jiang Xia looked at him and said, "Your relationship with the mayor's family is not as distant as you said. In addition to the three members of the mayor's family, Miss Xiaodu left two other names in this villa when she was a child, namely 'choni' and 'kachan'.
"When Miss Xiaodu was a child, the mayor of Jincheng built a new home that looked like a castle. Miss Xiaodu liked this new home very much, so when she gave nicknames to other things, she also used the names of castles from various places.
"For example, the golden folding screen has a picture of a white egret embroidered on it, so Ms. Xiaodu referred to it as 'Himeji Castle', which is also known as 'White Egret Castle'."
"By analogy, the ka in 'kachan' refers to crows, which is why Matsumoto Castle is called 'Crow Castle'..."
The program director suddenly realized: "So this 'kachan' actually refers to my cousin, Matsumoto Yoshiko, who works as a maid in the mayor's house?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "The remaining 'choni' refers to Chiyoda Castle, commonly known as Edo Castle - Edo Castle has a magnificent East Castle, so this nickname refers to the deputy captain, Mr. Daito."
He looked at the deputy captain whose face changed drastically: "Four years ago, after the kidnapping incident at the mayor's house in Jincheng, they were robbed by the kidnappers. After that, their housekeeper resigned - the housekeeper who resigned was actually you."
“Just now everyone was sitting in the restaurant discussing something, but you didn’t sit down, but stood aside out of habit.
"Also, when you were looking for an ashtray with your cigarette in your mouth, you didn't even look carefully in the cupboard, but directly took out a teacup - how could a person who is so decent as not to flick cigarette ashes in an abandoned house naturally take out a teacup as an ashtray?"
When mentioning this incident, the program director suddenly remembered something: "Oh, I remember that teacup was filled with a lot of cigarette butts of different brands soaked in water..."
Jiang Xia: "This should have been arranged by Mr. Dadong in advance. He wanted to use those cigarette butts to pretend that there was another group of people on the island, so as to facilitate his actions."
"in addition……"
He walked past the second captain, whose face was flickering between pale and blue, and entered the room where the yellow hair had been hung just now. He looked up at the hemp rope swaying on the beam.
"Although you deliberately hid your hands, it is not difficult to see that there is a fresh mark on your palm - Mr. Kume's 'escape' just now was very sudden, and you were forced to take action before you had time to make too much preparation.
"You didn't even wear gloves, so this piece of rope should have the biological information of three people - one is Miss Taira who was strangled to death first, another is Mr. Kume on the ground, and the other is the murderer who attacked them."
"It won't be long before the rescue team arrives, and the rope will be taken away by the police for identification..."
"So what if it's an identification?" The first officer snorted. "You don't think you can identify my fingerprints in such a rough place."
“…”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly found that a group of people were looking at him as if they were primitive people, with shocked expressions on their faces.
The deputy captain instinctively felt something was wrong and asked suspiciously, "...What's wrong?"
"Well..." The program director, who had dealt with many criminal cases, scratched his head and whispered, "Although it is difficult to detect fingerprints on the hemp rope, because it is very rough, when you hold it tightly and strangle someone, tiny traces of dandruff will be left on it... You used so many sophisticated techniques, but you don't know this common sense?"
The deputy captain froze: "..."
Conan was also shocked by the murderer's simplicity. He murmured, "You didn't wear gloves when you did the first two cases, did you?"
“…”
Silence, an indescribable silence.
After a moment, Hattori Heiji looked at the murderer who remained silent and seemed to have acknowledged the murder, and his eyes couldn't help but twitch slightly.
——In order to trick the murderer into taking out the murder weapon used in the first murder, he designed so many things and considered so many things... However, now, it is proved that as long as the piece of rope that was used to hang the captain's neck in the second case is taken for testing, the traces of the real murderer can be easily detected.
...Then what about the script he had just written with great effort? What about this yellow-haired guy who was hung on the beam because of their mistake? ?
An Osaka detective was briefly caught in a huge shock.
Conan felt the same way, but despite his grief, his identity as a detective made him unable to help but ask: "Ms. Taira was tricked out of her identity by you using the legend of Urashima Taro, and Mr. Kume was frightened when he saw the portrait of 'Ms. Kotobuki' on the second floor and exposed himself... But what about the captain?"
"Although it seems a little strange that he has been sailing around in that sea area, what if he was just looking for fish? Aren't you afraid of killing the wrong person?"
The deputy captain finally recovered from his huge mistake. He wiped his hair vigorously in self-abandonment and sneered: "Oh, how could I kill the wrong person? Four years ago, when that group of people went to rob the mayor's house, I only saw the face of the only gangster clearly - that captain!"
"He stabbed my fiancée to death right in front of me...I will never forget the look of that guy!"
The program director was shocked: "The person my cousin said she wanted to marry was you?"
"That's right." The second captain thought of the maid who had worked with him for many years and closed his eyes in pain. "We were about to get married, but on the day before the official engagement, something like that happened... I can't forgive those bastards no matter what!"
"So after Jiazi's funeral, I resigned from my job as mayor of Jincheng, changed my appearance and accent, and focused on tracking down the whereabouts of that group of people and preparing for revenge."
"But I never thought..." The angry man said halfway, his expression suddenly became a little sad, "I never thought that Miss Xiaodu, who I watched grow up, was actually one of them."
Suzuki Sonoko was startled: "You don't know about this?"
"Yes." The first officer sighed, "You have also seen her old photos - just like me, her appearance has completely changed.
"I was able to recognize her because she struggled and said to me 'I'm sorry, Mr. Dadong' when I strangled her before she died."
