Chapter 3245 3257 [Case Closed] Request for monthly ticket o(〃'▽'〃)o
"Ah!" Hideo Goda was startled. After coming to his senses, he picked up the remote control and slowly pressed the rewind button.
The machine hummed to life.
Officer Takagi continued like a dedicated narrator: "While waiting for the rewind, the murderer quietly approached the deceased from behind with a vase he had taken from the entrance."
Amuro looked at the policemen: "..."
The vase that served as the murder weapon had long been broken, so he had no choice but to walk behind the chair, raise his hands in the air, pretending that he was holding the vase, and perform a performance without a physical object.
Conan looked at the suspicious person's forced actions and found it a little funny. But soon he stopped laughing - why did no one answer the phone calls to the Maori Detective Agency and Maori Ran?
Combined with what Officer Takagi just said, could it be that...
When a mini detective is panicking.
Beside him, Officer Takagi was immersed in the story as if he was telling a story: "At this moment, the rewinding ended, and the deceased came to the projector and pressed the rewind button to eject the tape from the machine. And at this moment..."
He paused and asked in confusion, "Mr. Goda, why are you still sitting in the chair? It's time to come and get the videotape."
"Oh, okay." Hideo Goda was already sweating profusely without him knowing. He got up from his stool as if nothing had happened, squatted in front of the projector, and looked for the rewind button among the many buttons.
Jiang Xia came over and looked at his unfamiliar behavior: "It seems that you are more accustomed to the remote control than the buttons on the machine to eject the tape. Why don't you press the remote control to eject the tape from the machine?"
Hideo Goda spoke incoherently: "Because, this..."
While I was weaving, my hands suddenly felt empty.
Jiang Xia took the remote control from his hand and said helplessly: "I really can't do anything with you, let me help you pour it."
“?!!” Hideo Goda, who was squatting in front of the projector, was about to stop it, but he heard a “beep” sound of a key press. He yelled and hugged his head in fear… However, he closed his eyes and waited for a moment, but nothing hit his head.
After a few seconds, Hideo Goda gradually came back to his senses from the shock. He stood up blankly and saw the policemen beside him, his head buzzing.
...Oh no, I'm exposed!
Jiang Xia glanced at him and handed the remote control to Officer Gao Mu who was standing beside him: "Don't worry, I didn't press the rewind button just now. The stack of videotapes on the shelf won't fall and hit you."
"But from this point of view, your modus operandi should be very obvious - before the crime, you had already tuned the upper and lower projectors to the same frequency so that they could be controlled by the same remote control."
"Then you put a tape into the projector above. And on the edge of the cabinet in front of it, you put a vase filled with water and flowers."
"Put these things away, and then draw the curtains used to cover the house. Your preparations at home are complete."
"Next, you hide your watch, go out and find a random detective to use as a tool to help you prove your alibi."
Hearing this, several policemen couldn't help but show sympathetic looks: "..." Just pick a detective and he actually found Jiang Xia... In a sense, the law is so strict that there is no loophole.
But that's true. If you hadn't specifically looked up the relevant things, who would have thought that the famous Jiang Xia was not in the "Jiang Xia Detective Agency", but in the "Amuro Detective Agency" which seems to be unrelated at first glance?
Jiang Xia continued, "After we arrived at your house, Mrs. Izuki, whom you had arranged an appointment with, also showed up soon. You knew her habits and hobbies well, so you took out the videotape of the movie 'Sakura Shisanlang' and lured her into the deadly trap you had set in advance."
"Mrs. Izuki had no suspicion of your behavior. After she finished watching the movie, she walked over to the projector and tried to take out the tape."
"As she pressed the remote control, the projector in the top cabinet started up at the same time. The tray that popped out hit the vase, and the heavy vase fell from a height and hit the back of her head."
"At the same time, the tray of the upper projector hit something, so it automatically retracted and the video tape inside began to play."
"And you had recorded this sound in advance on that videotape."
Officer Gao Mu pressed the button very cooperatively, and the stack of things on top was knocked over by the tray and fell to the ground. After that, the tray really retracted as Jiang Xia said, and the video tape began to play a series of hurried footsteps and the sound of a door closing.
Jiang Xia: "After the sound of the vase breaking, there were the sounds of running and the door closing. These sounds could easily make people who heard them mistakenly think that an outsider had broken in and attacked the deceased in the audio-visual room."
"In addition, you also set a timer on the projector above to cut off its power supply to avoid being exposed in subsequent investigations."
Inspector Megure nodded repeatedly as he listened, but suddenly, he remembered something: "But, the vase on the shoe cabinet in the entrance seems to have disappeared."
Jiang Xia: "The vase on the shoe cabinet and the vase that hit the dead are not the same thing - remember the bowl with a missing bottom in the kitchen? Turn it upside down and put it on another bowl, and it becomes a black 'vase'."
"That is to say, when Mr. Goda sneaked out of the kitchen while making sandwiches, he did not intend to murder Mrs. Izuki, but quietly took the vase placed in the entrance hall."
"As long as the 'vase' is disassembled and turned back into a bowl, and the flowers are hidden in clothes, brought back to the kitchen and put in the oven, this vase that shouldn't exist can be cleverly disappeared in the kitchen."
Amuro Toru: "..." No wonder the oven was emitting a fragrant aroma just now. He asked, but Goda Hideo said it was a secret recipe that could not be passed on to others...
He looked at the dried flowers that the police had picked up from the trash can and said, "The flowers are baked like this to make them look very different from the fresh flowers at the crime scene, to prevent someone from associating the two bouquets of flowers together and thus uncovering your 'vase' trick."
"I was wondering how this kind of flower could live for three full weeks... It seems that it was not placed there by your wife before she passed away, but was bought recently." Toru Amuro solved a difficult problem and felt a lot more relieved: the flowers in the office could only live for two weeks, and it was not because he did not take good care of them, but because this was the normal lifespan.
A versatile undercover agent begins to compare notes in strange places.
At the side, upon hearing him mention this, Goda Hideo looked at the dried flowers with an angry look in his eyes, "That's right, those were not the flowers my wife put in there at all, but the flowers that Izuki Eiko brought when she attended my wife's funeral. She actually sent such a bright bouquet of flowers to the funeral. I don't think she cares about my wife's life at all!"
