Chapter 3381 3393 [The Poisonous Plot to Murder Judy]
"How insidious." Judy walked to another window in the bedroom, looking back at the single bed where she had just been lying.
The bed sheets glowed pale in the moonlight, and the half-pulled curtains fell outside the window, swaying in the wind - not long ago, the deceased fell out of the window next to the bed, plummeted to the 21st floor, and died on the spot.
Looking at this scene, Judy was frightened:
"In my bedroom, my bed is next to the balcony. This way, if I'm attacked, I can immediately evacuate to the balcony. If I receive an emergency call but the signal is poor, I can just climb out the window and onto the balcony to get a good signal."
"But in the deceased neighbor's house, his bed was next to the window. If I woke up and received a call with a bad signal, and then wanted to climb over the wall to the balcony because I was used to the layout of my own house... then I would immediately fall out of the window and become the second person to commit suicide."
"Luckily I woke up quickly. Anyway, how could I have fallen asleep just now? Am I that careless?"
Judy patted her face lightly, thinking that this was a serious mistake: it seemed that she had stayed up too late recently and needed to make up for her sleep.
There was still a sporadic voice coming from the phone. Judy casually said "wait a moment" and stepped out the window...
Then he missed a step.
—The balcony was gone! Beneath her feet was a nearly 100-meter-deep abyss, and at the bottom of the "abyss," a group of police officers were looking up at her in shock.
“…”
The moment before her body fell, Judy grabbed the wall and barely maintained her balance. Then, she used all her strength to shout, "Help! Help me!!!"
…
"Um?"
In the living room, Inspector Megure was startled by the pig-slaughtering scream. He looked at the bedroom in shock, then walked over quickly and opened the door.
Jiang Xia turned on the light, and the next moment, Judy, who was hanging by the window in a strange posture, came into everyone's sight.
He walked over, pulled the large piece of fragrant French fries back from the window, put it on the ground, and then asked very considerately: "Teacher Judy, are you okay?"
Judy was still in shock: "..." I'm surprised I'm okay!! I almost died!
She had thought that even if everything was "that person's" script, the dark-skinned detective controlled by Uzo would act within the moral scope of the "detective", but now it seems... this Osaka kid has no morals at all!
"Haha, Teacher Judy is different from her appearance. She is quite timid."
Under Judy's outwardly smiling, yet murderous gaze, Hattori Heiji pointed at her waist, then at the bed:
"While you were fast asleep, we did something to this room - we moved the single bed to another window next to the balcony, and fastened a safety belt for you.
"Even if you didn't react just now, you wouldn't really fall. Don't worry, don't worry."
Inspector Megure looked at the safety rope, which he didn't know if it was strong enough, and broke out in a cold sweat: "..." Don't worry! What if the rope broke, or if Teacher Judy fell in a tricky position and the rope loop didn't hold her? What should I do then?
"This kid from Osaka is too scary." He quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and once again thanked his Five Good Detective brother Jiang Xia:
"Compared to this guy, Jiang Xia's hobbies of smoking, drinking, racing, and occasionally beating up prisoners are nothing."
but……
Inspector Megure looked at the person who was almost smashed into a pancake and said, "Teacher Judy, why did you jump off the building?"
Judy: "@#￥%..."
Jiang Xia helped her organize her words: "Teacher Judy has seen the crime scene before, so in her impression, the single bed she was on was where the deceased fell from the building - and the other window opposite it led to the balcony.
"The signal in this kind of high-rise building is not good, and the mobile phone signal is sometimes available and sometimes not. In order to answer the phone, the residents here are accustomed to going to the balcony to find the signal.
"So after receiving Hattori's call, Judy left her single bed and went to another window, intending to climb onto the balcony.
"But because she fell asleep just now, we moved the single bed. So now, the window next to the single bed is safe. The 'window leading to the balcony' that Teacher Judy saw is actually where the deceased fell from the building."
"If you reverse what Teacher Judy experienced, it would be exactly what the deceased had experienced more than an hour ago."
"In other words..." After discovering someone attempted suicide, Officer Sato hurried downstairs and understood, "The murderer is Mr. Kawakami, who was talking to the deceased when he jumped!"
The middle-aged office worker's expression changed slightly.
Jiang Xia looked at him and said, "The deceased's original bed was placed where it is now, right next to the balcony.
"During the dinner, Mr. Kawakami found an excuse to leave the living room. He quietly slipped into the deceased's bedroom and dragged his single bed to the window on the other side.
"He then returned to the party as if nothing had happened and continued drinking. After the deceased became extremely drunk, he volunteered to move the deceased into the bedroom and put him on the bed.
"Finally, a phone call at the right time would have caused the deceased to drift off, and he would have habitually tried to climb out the window to the balcony to find a signal. But because the bed had been moved, this behavior was automatically changed to 'jumping to suicide.'"
A group of people understood and broke out in cold sweats: "So that's how it is..."
They originally wanted to climb out the window to the balcony, but when they looked out in a daze, they saw a bottomless abyss below... Just thinking about the fear and despair made them feel cold on their backs.
"This is truly a vicious plot." Inspector Megure couldn't help but look at Kawasaki. This middle-aged man had just been outspoken and hated evil, but he actually was so, so...
He sighed and began his routine inquiry into motive: "Why did you murder your superior?"
"Why?" Kawasaki laughed softly a few times, but did not confess as the police expected.
This experienced office worker just smirked and said, "I don't know why I wanted to kill him—because I didn't even want to kill him."
Inspector Megure: “You…!”
Kawakami raised his chin, and for a moment he seemed to be possessed by Maori Kogoro: "I did move the bed, but that was because Takai felt uncomfortable in the original position and wanted to go to another window to get some fresh air, so he asked me to help move it.
"As for the phone call, it was just because he scolded me at the party, and after I got home, I got angrier and angrier, and with the alcohol emboldening me, I just called him and scolded him.
"These two things combined actually led to Takai's tragic death... Alas, I never expected such a thing!"
