Chapter 3407 3419 [Case Closed] Ask for monthly ticket (`)
Jiang Xia looked at the three suspects who shared the same hatred and said, "You can't leave now, but if nothing unexpected happens, you should be able to leave soon."
The three of them were delighted at first, but then one of them felt something was wrong: "...What do you mean?"
Jiang Xia then explained in detail: "What I mean is, after we find the fake fan among you, the other two can go back."
Three people: “?!”
After a brief moment of shock, the fashionable woman slammed her palm and felt that she understood everything.
She suddenly raised her hand and pointed at the burly man with glasses next to her. "The fake fan you're talking about must be this guy, right? I remember when we were chatting just now, he said he didn't see the final shot from the wing and felt very sorry."
The man with glasses frowned: "I did say that, what's wrong?"
The fashionable woman snorted coldly, revealing a sharp, detective-like expression. "The ones who scored the goal in the end were Akagi and his two key players—they're forwards who move freely along the front line, not just wingers who can only move along the sidelines."
"..." Inspector Megure didn't know much about these two teams, so he asked the long-haired man next to him, "Is she right?"
"That's right." The long-haired man nodded. "Besides, the two-wing attacking style is already outdated. Who would still use that formation in today's football games?"
"Really?" The burly man with glasses panicked and quickly explained, "Actually, I only started watching football recently. Those young players all look alike. Plus, I was getting scolded by my boss at the time, so I accidentally mixed up the details..."
"Nonsense! We're already at the scene, how could you not recognize the players on the same team?" The fashionable woman looked even more like a detective than a police officer. "I think you're the murderer! — It's the reason I've been detained here for so long. Stop quibbling and confess!"
Jiang Xia glanced at her, his hand rubbing his business card holder, eager to make a move: Although she is somewhat lacking in deduction, this fan has some qualities that make her seem quite suitable for being a detective. I wonder if she has any intention of changing her profession...
Beside him, the man with glasses argued vigorously, "I didn't kill anyone! I really just started watching the game... I, I just said something wrong, I can't be considered a murderer just like that!"
"That's right." Jiang Xia looked at it for a while and nodded. "Although this gentleman was wrong in many places, he certainly didn't mean to lie."
"..." The fashionable woman choked, and then her face was full of confusion, "Who is the murderer?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she understood and turned her head to look at the long-haired man.
——There are only three people in total, one of whom has been ruled out by the detective. So among the remaining two, the murderer can't be her.
This time, the process of elimination worked, and the reasoning was finally correct.
Jiang Xia also looked at the long-haired man: "Unlike Mr. Funato, who was being scolded while watching the game in confusion, you clearly didn't watch the game, but you talked as if you were watching it live."
Gulp.
The long-haired man swallowed nervously, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start.
Jiang Xia didn't let the atmosphere cool down, and continued caringly, "Today's game should be the Tokyo District Championship that all Tokyo fans are looking forward to, and the spectator seats are packed.
"It's hard to buy a ticket next to someone who has died, and even if you do, it's easy to lose them when you leave the stadium after the game.
"So instead of getting your reserved seat, you went to the bathroom and hid in a cubicle, listening to what was going on with your headphones.
“When you heard the game was about to end, you left the toilet and quickly walked to the exit closest to the deceased.
"When the deceased appeared, you followed him all the way to the tram, and then killed him before reaching this stop."
“…”
After he finished speaking, the long-haired man finally organized his words.
He took a deep breath and said, "I was clearly sitting in the audience at the time. I watched the game until the end before I got up and left. What makes you say I was hiding in the bathroom?"
"You told me yourself." Jiang Xia suddenly looked at the fashionable woman. "Were you there when the ball was finally scored?"
"Of course!" The fashionable woman hadn't expected that there was anything else going on with her. When the detective asked her about it, she remembered that she was also a suspect. She quickly said seriously:
"I was sitting in the front seats at the time, and I saw Naoki's headbutt go in clearly! —That's why I couldn't help but get into an argument with the Soul fan next to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask him to testify for me!"
Just as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and added weakly, "But, but we had a pretty intense argument. It would be bad if that guy holds a grudge and deliberately gives false testimony... Or maybe we should find other people around us. They must have seen me after the argument."
Seeing this, the long-haired man also hurriedly said: "Although I didn't quarrel with anyone, and my appearance is ordinary and hard to be remembered...but you can't say that I was not there just because there are no witnesses!
"I was sitting right behind the Nova team's goal! Akagi dodged several defenders, approached the goal, and then passed the ball to a teammate in front of the goal, who then headed the ball in... It all happened right in front of me, I saw it all clearly! If you don't believe me, look at my ticket!"
The other two were stunned for a moment, then quickly started pulling out their tickets: "We have them too!"
Three tickets were stuffed in front of him, and Inspector Megure had no choice but to take them... and then he stuffed them all to Jiang Xia: How could he understand this thing, why not just give it directly to Brother Jiang Xia?
but……
Inspector Megure remembered something and asked Jiang Xia quietly, "Brother Jiang Xia, I think you didn't watch that game?"
Jiang Xia looked at the ticket in his hand and waved his phone at him: "I really didn't watch it, but as long as you look for the replay online, it won't be difficult to find the key."
As he spoke, he looked at the three fans and said, "Today's game is hosted by the Tokyo Soul, right?"
The fashionable woman and the man with glasses nodded, not knowing why he asked this, but still answered, "Yes."
Jiang Xia: "In this kind of game, the local team's stands are usually on the left side of the main auditorium, and the visiting team's stands are on the right. In other words, in today's situation, the Tokyo Spirit's stands should be on the left, and the Nova team's stands should be on the right."
He looked at the long-haired man who realized something was wrong. "In other words, if you were really a Nova fan and sat in the Nova stands, then Tokyo Spirit's goal would have been scored on the side of the goal farthest from you—but in your description, it's as if it appeared clearly before your eyes."
