Chapter 3335 3347 [Case Closed] Ask for monthly ticket ()
The plain light-colored belt on Tiantang Qinghua's waist only passed through the trouser loops on both sides.
The trouser loop in the middle of her lower back was directly pressed down by the belt and did not go through it horizontally.
Hearing what Yoshida Ayumi said, Tencho Haruka subconsciously reached back and touched the wrong part of the belt, and her face suddenly changed.
"The killer's weakness lies in his clothing..." Officer Sato recalled what Jiang Xia had just said, and based on this...
She looked at Tiantang Qinghua: "Are you the murderer?"
"Of course not!" Tiantang Qinghua said quickly, "I got up late today and was in a hurry to leave. In my panic, I accidentally tied my belt the wrong way... Everyone makes small mistakes like that, right? Why do you say I'm the murderer just because of that?"
When Jiang Xia heard this, he turned to look at Dr. Agasa and extended his hand to him.
Dr. Agasa looked at Jiang Xia, then lowered his head to look at Jiang Xia's hand: "......?"
What do you want? I can't guess! I'm just an ordinary scientist who can't reason!
Fortunately, Conan also thought of this and quickly said in Jiang Xia's voice: "Didn't we take a lot of photos when we were playing in the camp this afternoon?"
"Oh! You want a camera." Dr. Agasa quickly took out the camera and put it in Jiang Xia's hand.
Jiang Xia looked down at the camera, adjusted it after a few beeps, opened one of the photos, and turned it over to show the others.
——The photo shows the scene when the tent was being set up.
Haruka Tencho was squatting on the ground with a nail and a hammer, driving a pile, while Ayumi Yoshida was standing opposite her, helping her hold the nail - because the protagonist in the photo was Ayumi Yoshida, this photo was taken from behind Haruka Tencho.
In other words, this photo was taken in the afternoon and shows what her belt looked like.
"In this photo, your belt was clearly on properly." Inspector Megure noticed the problem, "Why isn't it on properly now?"
"Ah, well..." Tiantang Qinghua's face turned grim, and she forced a smile. "It was too hot this afternoon, so I came to take a shower in this campervan. That must be when my clothes got messed up."
Jiang Xia shook his head.
Officer Sato was very understanding and said, "If you're just taking a shower and don't plan on changing clothes, who would take off your belt and put it back on? Your belt is in this state, it's probably not because you put your pants on again, but because you just changed into a pair of pants that are exactly the same as before!"
Tiantang Qinghua: "Well, so what? Changing pants after taking a shower, isn't that normal?"
Officer Sato understood everything when she saw her expression. She said sternly, "Then please take out the pants you were wearing."
“…” Tiantang Qinghua stopped talking.
Jiang Xia knocked on the back of the sofa.
Conan came back to his senses, quickly picked up the bow voice changer, and said to Tiantang Qinghua: "If I'm not mistaken, you should have prepared two identical sets of clothes today.
“The outfit you were wearing earlier was splattered with a lot of blood when you stoned Miss Taimei to death.
“Of course, you couldn’t wear these clothes anymore, so after you changed them, you hid them in the mountains.
"Those two pieces of clothing are irrefutable evidence of your murder. Although this mountain is vast, as long as we use the camp as the center and deploy police dogs to search outward, we will definitely find it."
Tiantang Qinghua's lips trembled, as if she wanted to refute, but she really couldn't find the words.
"It's really you?" Dr. Agasa sighed regretfully as he looked at the young female student. "If you were planning to kill someone, why did you invite us camping together? You're not going to use Jiang Xia as an alibi like those other suspects before, are you?"
Jiang Xia's voice rang out, answering for Tiantang Qinghua: "Whether she recognizes me or not, she has no choice but to invite us to go with her - only in this way can she accurately grasp our location and prevent others from seeing us when she commits the crime.
"Also, the car accident involving Dr. Agasa and Mr. Amuro was probably a pleasant surprise for Ms. Haruka. Otherwise, if our car hadn't broken down, she would have had to worry about how to dispose of the body if there were other vehicles following behind us as we drove up the mountain."
"how so……"
The Junior Detectives were also in disbelief for a moment. Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya blurted out, "But, sister, aren't you the eldest daughter of a wealthy family? On TV, if a daughter like you wants to kill someone, she will hire someone to do it. Why do you have to do it yourself..."
"!" Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized that these words seemed illegal, so he quickly covered his mouth and secretly looked at Jiang Xia.
Fortunately, Jiang Xia didn't care about these little things, or perhaps the detective felt that what Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya had just said was actually part of the reasoning - in short, the scene that the elementary school students were worried about did not happen.
Jiang Xia just looked at Tiantang Qinghua quietly, and Tiantang Qinghua was stunned for a moment, then gave a low bitter smile.
She shook her head, half answering Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko's question, half mocking herself:
"I'm not some big shot, I'm just an ordinary student who managed to get into the city from the countryside with no special qualities.
"If I don't pretend to be rich, if I don't pretend to be a so-called 'rich girl', no one here will want to be my friend.
"Being a 'popular person' like I am now is really hard - for example, I have to work very hard and even borrow money to afford to rent this RV so that I can travel with my friends in the club.
"Although such days are hard, it is worth it for the sake of my new friends... Haha, that's what I originally thought, but who would have thought that day, I would actually hear such words from Taimei."
Tiantang Qinghua's expression turned painful: "A while ago, when the club was having a meeting, I had to take leave to work.
"Later, my boss finished the work ahead of schedule, so I rushed back to school, hoping to catch the meeting.
"But when I got to the door, I heard Taimei laughing and saying to the other two..."
…
"Haha, you didn't know that? The so-called Miss Qinghua isn't really a real Miss at all. When I first heard she was rich, I felt something was amiss. I followed her for a while a few days ago. Guess what I saw?"
After learning the truth, Shirafuji Taimi sat in the club room, crossing her legs comfortably.
As she munched on snacks bought with club funds, she cheerfully shared Tiantang Qinghua's little secret with the other two: "She actually lives in a shabby apartment! Not to mention the rich young ladies, even poor students rarely live in such a poor place!"
