Chapter 3265 3277 [Curaçao's sense of security] Ask for a monthly ticket (づど)
Naoko Torimaru's heart moved, and she subconsciously looked at the woman twice more. Under the cover of the black and white dress, her whole body was slightly tense, and she entered the fighting state again.
But before he could open his mouth, Jiang Xia said, "I heard from the housekeeper that the Fujieda family has very strict rules. The maids work in pairs, and they can provide each other with an alibi."
"Really?" Kudo Yukiko scratched her cheek. She originally wanted to say that there were a pair of twins among the maids, and the alibi of relatives would be difficult to count... But then she changed her mind and thought, if she had thought of it, how could Jiang Xia not have thought of it?
And according to the collection of Jiang Xia's crime-solving works that she had read, since Jiang Xia said this, he should be able to be sure that the murderer was not the two maids.
Thinking of this, Kudo Yukiko relaxed and said again: "Since the alibi can't find the person, let's break through from the motive!"
Inspector Megure didn't think too much about it. When Jiang Xia said that the murderer was not a maid, he was ready to move on to the next step. For a while, all the drafts prepared by Naoko Torimaru became useless.
Hearing the policemen chattering about arranging the next round of questioning, Naoko Torimaru looked left and right, unable to help but feel a little unbelievable: "..." A storm that seemed to be brewing against her was actually dispersed by Jiang Xia so quietly?
Faced with this completely unexpected situation, Naoko Torimaru frowned and thought for a moment, as if she had realized something.
"I still underestimated this detective." She twisted the hem of her skirt unconsciously with both hands, reflecting secretly:
"At first, I found that Jiang Xia was always entangled with the Wuzo case, so I wanted to tell him about the existence of 'that person' and let him help me break out of the cage... But in fact, Jiang Xia had already discovered the mastermind behind the scenes, but he just lacked the conditions to catch him."
"And now it seems that they are not only evenly matched in terms of cognition - Jiang Xia is no less powerful in terms of influence on the surrounding areas."
On one side is a highly venomous snake, and on the other side is the corresponding serum - the killing move used by Wu Zuo is extremely terrifying to others, but when it comes to Jiang Xia, it can often be resolved by the detective.
Just like the blow tonight: being suspected of being the murderer together with Takamori Masumi, she had been prepared to give a comprehensive explanation from the time, place, behavior, motive and other aspects, and cleverly escape the fingerprint check like she did in the past few days... But now, Jiang Xia's light words were more effective than all her efforts.
...She had underestimated the power and usefulness of this ally!
When a fake maid contemplates life.
Next to them, the detectives seemed to be thinking as well.
Faced with this strange case, Conan was full of questions and wanted to find someone to discuss it with - but only Kudo Yukiko and Jiang Xia knew his true identity.
"My mom's reasoning ability is almost non-existent. I can't have a conversation with her. But if I go find Jiang Xia..."
What if this neighbor suddenly says "The murderer is XX" while chatting? What should we do then?
After hesitating for a moment, Conan simply picked up his phone and called Hattori Heiji.
A detective who can make a long argument like giving a speech obviously has good summarizing and generalizing abilities.
As Conan muttered in a low voice, Hattori Heiji soon understood the situation here and began to think about this interesting puzzle.
Hattori Heiji: "I don't know if you've noticed, but there's something very strange."
Conan obviously knew what he was going to say: "When we were in the monitoring room, the murderer fired the first shot at Fujieda Mikio, who fell to the ground. After that, we rushed from the monitoring room to the audio-visual room. When we stood at the locked door of the audio-visual room, the second and third shots had just been fired... There was more than a minute between these two shootings."
Hearing him speak out his thoughts, Hattori Heiji nodded with satisfaction: "When a murderer commits a crime, he either shoots once and runs away, or shoots a few more times out of fear before running away. Who would shoot once, then come back a minute later and shoot the second and third time right in front of you?"
Conan felt the same way: "Either the man ran away and came back to shoot again because he was worried that the victim was not dead, or..."
The two men said in unison: "Forge an alibi!"
Hattori Heiji laughed, feeling as if he had met a worthy opponent and a bosom friend. "When the first shot was fired, the people with alibis were the old housekeeper, Mrs. Suhua, who was in the same monitoring room with you, and the gardener who appeared in the monitoring."
"When the second and third shots were fired, the old housekeeper was getting the keys, Madam Suhua hid in her room and refused to come out, and the gardener wandered off somewhere. Only that poor young master was with you."
"Of the two waves of gunfire, one must have been forged in some way to create an alibi. In other words, out of the two gangs, only one side has a real alibi!"
…
Similar thoughts were also passing through Curacao's mind at this moment.
In a corner of Tokyo, in a hidden vehicle.
Curacao was munching on a sandwich while looking at the laptop on his lap - what was playing on the screen was the exact scene from the surveillance cameras at the Fujieda household.
"I knew that when Uzo sent his pair of canaries there, he definitely didn't just find them a place to stay."
After all, Curacao was the one who arranged for the twins to join the company, so he was somewhat concerned about the whereabouts of the two. "What kind of canary is this? It's simply a bird that heralds death."
"Come to think of it, now that their employer has died, the Canary pair will be out of work again. From this perspective, I really want to introduce them to Rum's sushi restaurant to help out..."
A thought flashed through his mind briefly, but was quickly driven out of Curacao's mind: some of the experiences in dealing with Uzo that Vodka summarized were nonsense, but some of them made sense - don't do anything like "guiding" or "manipulating" this person, especially don't write scripts in front of Uzo.
Think about all those so-called “scriptwriters” who fell before Uzo… This black-hearted fellow is by no means a friendly colleague.
After a brief sigh and putting away some dangerous thoughts, Curacao finished his sandwich while watching the surveillance video.
——A bomb that has not yet been detonated is the most terrifying. Now, there was movement in the place where the pair of death-harbinger birds flew to, and Curacao felt relieved.
By spying on Uzo's whereabouts, Curacao confirmed that Uzo's physical location was quite far away from him. Feeling safe, Curacao closed his notebook and continued with his work.
