Chapter 3332 3344 [Selection Criteria]
"Ah, okay." Conan stammered in response, then revealed the innocent look of a child and took the initiative:
"Uncle Amuro, why are you following me? Did you also hear Brother Jiang Xia's hint, but you're not as smart as me and can't figure out where the clue is, so you want to copy my answer?"
Toru Amuro has become accustomed to the harsh words of the young and old people around Jiang Xia. He skillfully filtered out some of the seemingly provocative and sarcastic content, and accurately extracted the useful part from this sentence: "..." Jiang Xia's hint?
I was so distracted just now that I didn't pay attention to what Jiang Xia said... Was this kid able to find the blood-stained tablecloth because he heard the clue from Jiang Xia?
It sounds reasonable, but for some reason, Toru Amuro always feels that there is something else hidden behind it.
…
In any case, the physical evidence found must be reported to the police as soon as possible to prevent it from being blown away by the mountain wind.
"A blood-stained plastic tablecloth?" Several police officers were surprised at first, then realized the importance of this clue. "Where did you find it?!"
Conan pointed in the direction he had just run. "It's on the guardrail about 50 meters from here. It must have been blown away by the wind and got stuck there."
The police officers looked at the bloodstains on the tablecloth with serious expressions and chattered about something. In the RV behind them, Jiang Xia heard the noise and came down.
The detective took a look at the tablecloth and recognized it: "I think I saw this style of plastic sheeting at noon."
The three college students followed out and saw this thing. Huangmao was surprised and said, "Isn't this the mat we used to use?"
Fanhe Takuto nodded and explained to Jiang Xia and the police, "Later, because it had a hole in it, we replaced it with a new tablecloth of the same style, but this one can still be used, so I kept it as a backup."
Tiantang Qinghua looked the tablecloth up and down. "How did it get here? And it's stained with so much blood..."
Conan stared at the three people carefully, trying to observe who among them was the murderer.
——Now, he has roughly guessed the method used by the murderer, but the problem is that any one of these three college students has the ability to turn this method into reality.
In other words, although I have figured out a lot of things, the choice between 3 and 1 is still a choice between 3 and 1, without any change.
"The performance of these three people seems very natural." After observing for a while, Conan scratched his head in pain:
"Why are the acting skills of murderers nowadays so good? Can't they just give an inexplicable sinister smile like before and let me see it..."
Behind him, Amuro Toru looked at the elementary school student whose doubts were evident from the very hair, and felt a little relieved: This is right... However, it cannot be ruled out that this kid was exposed just now, so he is now acting.
"Conan seems very anxious." Not far away, three children from the Junior Detective League were huddled together and whispering. Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya whispered to the two friends, "Who do you think the murderer is?"
Yoshida Ayumi looked at the three college students: one was a fat brother who helped them catch fish, one was a gentle older sister, and one was a yellow-haired brother who spoke rudely but served as their driver all the way...
She whispered, "I think it might be wild people in the mountains. It's normal for a mountain this big to have one or two people hiding there."
Kojima Genta touched his stomach and said, "Anyone is fine. I'm so hungry. We've cooked that pot of curry but haven't eaten it yet... If I had known, I would have eaten some first, just like Jiang Xia brother."
Only Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was seriously reasoning: "When my sister's friends came to our house to play, they shared a collection of handmade newspapers with her. I heard them discussing that in the cases that Brother Jiang Xia had solved, the best-looking one was often the murderer, so you can't judge a person by his appearance..."
"The most beautiful one?" Ayumi Yoshida and Genta Kojima were attracted by this simple standard and came back to their senses.
They looked at the three college students, first eliminating Takuto Igo, and then began to debate between the other two.
"Could it be that big brother with blond hair?" Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko guessed, "He dresses so fashionably. I want to dye my hair like that when I grow up."
Yoshida Ayumi hesitated: "But if we only look at her face, it seems that Sister Tiantang Qinghua is more beautiful."
"But her hairline is too high." Kojima Genta gestured at his forehead, "You can't even see her hair from the front."
"Um……"
Oops, the easiest way to find the murderer seems to be stuck.
Should we do the opposite here and choose the lunch box brother?
While the three children were thinking to themselves.
beside.
The three college students stared at the blood-stained tablecloth in confusion for a moment. After a moment, they looked up and suddenly found that the police who were suspicious of them also looked confused.
"Well..." Tiantang Qinghua hesitated. "Speaking of which, it's already so late - shouldn't we go back?"
Inspector Megure came back to his senses from the blood-stained tablecloth and said quickly, "Not yet."
Huangmao chimed in, "But, there's no evidence to prove we killed anyone. If you can't solve the case, do we have to wait here forever?"
Inspector Megure began to sweat on his forehead: "You can't say that..."
Seeing his timid look, Huangmao suddenly became more confident and said, "Then tell me clearly, when can we leave?"
Inspector Megure was sweating profusely: "This..."
"We'll be leaving soon."
Just when I was feeling embarrassed, a savior-like voice came from the side.
Inspector Megure turned around in surprise and saw that Jiang Xia had walked up to him at some point.
The detective looked at the three college students, then sighed softly and continued with a look of regret, "But only two of you three can leave."
Three college students: “?!”
They looked at each other, and suddenly their previous unity disappeared, and their eyes became quietly alert.
Inspector Megure, after a brief reading comprehension, understood more from Jiang Xia's words. His heavy mood instantly improved: "Do you know who the murderer is?"
Jiang Xia nodded, looked at the forensic officer, and pointed upwards: "Let's go to the roof first. There should be a lot of important traces on it."
"The roof?" Inspector Megure was stunned. "Is there anything special there?"
Jiang Xia: "That's where Miss Taimei rested after her death."
Police: “!!!”
Three college students: “?!”
