Chapter 171
Do you know who the murderer is?
Hattori Heiji stumbled and almost fell into the trash can.

No, he just dug out a ball of fishing line, and before he could figure out the whole thing, he already knew who the murderer was?
Is there something wrong with this speed?

And wasn’t the person speaking the president of a game company?Is it possible that he also works part-time as a detective?
The top-heavy Conan reluctantly turned around and looked at Bai Chuan, half of his body blocked by books beside the desk. His eyes flickered a few times, and he had the answer to the secret room's method.

'After knowing the secret room techniques, it is easy to guess the person who arranged such a deception. The murderer is the unmistakable person! '

A confident smile appeared on Conan's face, and then he fell to the ground with a thud.

"Conan!" The quickest reaction was Mao Lilan. She stepped forward quickly, put her palm to her forehead, and then suddenly shrank.

So hot!

"I'll take him to the doctor."

Xiaolan said as she picked up Conan, who was already trembling, and ran quickly outside the house.

Before being carried out of the study, Conan opened his eyes with difficulty and looked at Bai Chuan. The emotion in that look was extremely complicated, with trust, expectation and a little bit of relief.

This kid is really crazy!
Seeing Conan's eyes before leaving, Bai Chuan clenched his fists.

Wouldn't someone think that he was influenced by the high school detective Kudo Shinichi in solving the case now?

"Brother Bai Chuan, do you know who the murderer is?"

Officer Megure was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands.

hurry up!Hurry up and show some color to this out-of-town detective who came to Tokyo to play in the gym, and let the despicable foreigners know that not just any cat or dog can hang out in Miwa Town!
Realizing that he still couldn't get rid of the title of 'brother', Bai Chuan felt even worse.

If I had known better, I wouldn't have gone out and wasted such effort.

He has now begun to regret why he had to buy dating time for the unscrupulous detective. This kind of thing can no longer be said to be thankless, it is simply that the relatives hate the enemies and the enemies are happy!
"Let's not talk about the murderer first. I want to confirm one thing first."

He had no choice but to brag about Haikou, so Bai Chuan could only bite the bullet and continue.

"whats the matter."

Hattori Heiji stretched his ears and tried to listen to every word Shirakawa said. His motivation for coming to Tokyo was to compete with Kudo Shinichi to see who was the real high school detective, but understanding the level of other detectives in Tokyo was also a must. Well!

"Can I come in and out of Diplomat Isao Ikemura's study at will?"

"This"

Only then did Mu Mu suddenly realize that the identity of the deceased this time was unusual!He hurriedly looked around. Fortunately, the guys from the forensics department were fishing in the water as usual and did not conduct any searches in the diplomat's study.

Sometimes these idle guys can actually be a help!
Mumu sighed silently in his heart, and then glanced at everyone in the room with stern eyes, "From now on, no one is allowed to touch any items in the room. Those who have touched before will now touch with you." All the things are standing in that corner, ready to be questioned."

After doing this, he set his sights on Mrs. Ikemura Koe, "Mrs. Ikemura, can you please explain why you brought the detective into your husband's study?"

"Do you suspect Mrs. Ikemura?" Hattori Heiji approached Shirakawa and asked in a low voice, "Because she generously allowed the detective and several unknown people to enter the diplomat's study. This approach does seem very much to create uncertainty. Proof of presence. But”

"Are you talking about fishing line?" Bai Chuan directly interrupted Heipi's question.

"That's right, isn't it true that the secret room technique is not the case in your reasoning?"

Hattori Heiji was also a little strange. He had seen the traces of tape on the key, dug out the fishing line from the trash can, and had obtained physical evidence. This situation was much more convincing than the simple suspicion of the president in front of him. Already?

"According to the method of the secret room, the aunt should not have the time to commit the crime at all."

Bai Chuan calmly shook his finger, "There is a big difference between ideals and reality, as well as reasoning and real life."

what to do if I am sad?Of course, you need to find an unlucky guy to use the smile transfer technique!

Seeing Hei Ji's face getting darker and darker, a smile reappeared on Bai Chuan's face. It was really interesting to base his own happiness on the pain of others.

"Why do you have to worry about the secret room method? Haven't you discovered that it is impossible to put the key into the pocket using fishing line?"

"Why is it impossible?" Hattori Heiji was a little anxious, "I can demonstrate it on the spot and it will definitely succeed in the first time!"

"No need." Bai Chuan crossed his hands and made a cross on his chest, "Think carefully about the size of the deceased, and then think about the shape of the key in the deceased's pocket."

"What do you mean?" Hattori Heiji was a little confused. The deceased's too fat figure meant that the gap in his pocket was very small when he sat down. Moreover, the key was stacked with the keychain and placed in the pocket, and the keychain was placed inside the pocket. Towards the mouth of the bag.

If all this is really done using fishing line, part of the keychain will inevitably be pulled out when the fishing line is pulled hard, making it very difficult to superimpose.

Even if you really master the strength and keep the two overlapping, the keychain will definitely be placed at the bottom of your pocket.

Therefore, the bunch of keys was definitely not put into the deceased's pocket with the help of tools!

"In that case, what exactly is the method behind this secret room?" Hattori Heiji hurriedly asked.

"There was no secret room from the beginning."

Shirakawa's words were not only to Hattori, but also to reassure Officer Megure.

"The door to the study was locked from the beginning. It was a perfect secret room until Mrs. Ikemura opened the door. However, the murder occurred only after the secret room was artificially unlocked."

"Brother Bai Chuan, what do you mean by this?"

Mu Mu's brain seemed a little insufficient at this time, "Didn't you just say there was no secret room? Why do you say there is one now?"

"What he means is that Mrs. Kimura Ikemura launched the murder plan after leading Detective Mori and others into the study."

A familiar voice sounded behind everyone. Looking for the familiar voice, an unexpected guy appeared in front of everyone.

"Kudou!?"

Officer Memu's eyes shone, he's coming, he's coming, he's coming with golden light!
"Shinichi???" Mao Lilan's eyes were filled with shock and tears, and her mind was occupied by the handsome face of her best friend.Different from these people, Bai Chuan glanced at his phone with a dark face, "Hey guys, it's at least 15 minutes faster than someone switching to a large size in the original plot. This is no matter what, I don't want to let go of such an opportunity to show off." !
And I came to see the case when I was young. This guy is really hopeless!

"Xinyi, where have you been? Do you know how worried I am about you during this time?" Xiaolan's tone was tearful. If it weren't for a circle of people standing around, she would have fallen into someone's arms by now. I poured my heart out.

"Silly girl, why are you crying? Am I not doing well?"

Kudo Shinichi endured the physical discomfort and took a few steps forward. He pulled out the chair where Isao Ikemura was sitting before his death and sat down. He folded his hands and rested them on his chin. Then he turned his attention to Hattori Heiji who was standing next to the table. ,
"You've already reached this position, haven't you thought of the murderer's methods?"

Tsk tsk tsk, this pretense technique is not unfamiliar at all!
Hattori Heiji's eyes swept over Kudo Shinichi's head, ears, and finally fell on his shoulders.

The pinhole in the deceased's neck, the books on the desk that could block most of the person, and the location of the DVD player
Countless clues were connected in Hattori Heiji's mind, and the answer was instantly formed, "What a brilliant deception."

"That's right!" Kudo Shinichi's voice rose a bit, "Mrs. Ikemura, when you led Xiaolan and the others into the study, you pretended to wake Mr. Ikemura up, but you actually took that opportunity to pierce the poisonous needle into his body. Thus completing the murder."

"When we first entered the study, Mr. Ikemura was actually just given sleeping pills and was not dead yet. The DVD player in this room was placed just to the left of the desk. Mrs. Ikemura took advantage of all of us to be distracted by the opera playing on the DVD player. This case was completed when attracted.”

Hattori Heiji immediately followed up and added.

"Yes, combined with the tape on the key chain and the fishing line in the trash can, plus the preconception that Mr. Isao Ikemura is dead, some second-rate detectives can think that this is a secret room murder and follow the truth. A vicious script brings the scapegoat to justice.”

Kudo Shinichi continued to explain, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the irony in it.

This guy!Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth and did not refute in the end, but just spoke louder,
"The loud opera in the study and the books piled high on the table were all deliberately designed to prevent Mr. Ikemura from making noises or struggling violently before he died and were discovered by us."

In order not to become what someone calls a second-rate detective, Hattori Heiji is definitely firing on all cylinders: "As for the fishing line, combined with the fact that Mrs. Ikemura deliberately invited Mr. Ikemura to come to her home to talk about fishing, she probably prepared the items in advance to frame the crime."

Seeing the two detectives talking to each other, everyone present reacted. These two little brats were not solving the case, they were completely at odds!

"No, no, no, these are all your speculations. Where is the evidence? Where is the motive? You can't be so subjective in judging that I am the murderer!"

Mrs. Ikemura looked a little panicked from the moment Shirakawa asked if she could enter the diplomat's study at will, and now she was even more cornered.

"Of course we have the evidence, and that is the poison needle you used when you committed the crime!" Kudo Shinichi answered first.

"From the time of the murder to the present, you had no chance to deal with the poisonous needle that killed Mr. Ikemura. Likewise, there was also the container containing the poisonous needle." Not to be outdone, Hattori Heiji immediately answered.

"That's right! The murder weapon is hidden in the keychain you have been holding since you entered the study!" X2
The two gave the specific location of the murder weapon almost at the same time.

As soon as Officer Megure heard this, he knew it was time to get to work. He immediately cheered up and said seriously to Mrs. Ikemura, "Madam, please cooperate with our investigation."

The movements of his hands were faster than the words on his lips, and he snatched the key from Kimura Koe's hand in one fell swoop, and found a groove in the center of the keychain that could accommodate a poison needle.

"I believe there must be traces of poison in it. It's exactly the same poison that Mr. Ikemura was poisoned by!"

This time, Kudo Shinichi finally managed to deliver the key blow before Hattori Heiji.

"As for motivation."

"Let me tell you this." Shirakawa coughed, interrupting Kudo Shinichi's action of taking photos from the bookshelf.

"Our company has had some cooperation with Mr. Isao Ikemura, so we also spent a few days conducting a not-so-detailed investigation."

His reason is very good, at least it is much more reliable than Kudo Shinichi's simple guess.

"Mr. Ikemura and Mrs. Ikemura are married for the second time. Before that, Ms. Ikemura Koe should have been called Yamashiro Koe."

!!!

This sentence made the two women present suddenly raise their heads, their eyes full of confusion and disbelief.

For Kimura Ikee, she did not expect that her past would be exposed directly like this. At that time, Ikemura wiped out all traces of the whole incident. Even if she wanted to investigate, it took more than ten years. It only took a few days for it to reach other people’s mouths!

If this news was a shock to Kimura Ikee, then it was a life of complete doubt for Sachiko Yaki.

Mountain city?Isn't that the name of his deceased father?

Could it be that.
Not only Sachiko Kagi, but everyone present was sorting out this somewhat confusing relationship in their minds.

Isao Ikemura's wife is Sachiko Yoshiko's biological mother and Takayama Ikemura's stepmother, wouldn't that be...
"That's right." Bai Chuan revealed the answer directly, "They are half-brothers and sisters!"

oh~~~
Everyone looked like they had eaten something big.

"Of course, things are not that simple. Mrs. Ikemura's original husband, diplomat Kenji Yamashiro, actually died at the hands of Isao Ikemura. In order to marry Mrs. Ikemura, Ikemura divorced his wife with strong force. That is, Ikemura Takayama’s biological mother, and eventually led to her suicide.”

The news was even more explosive than the half-brother and sister just now.

Isao Ikemura killed Sachiko Yoshiko's biological father and forced Takayama Ikemura's biological mother to death. No wonder a certain diplomat lost his temper when the two said they wanted to fall in love.

Everyone's eyes wandered back and forth between the two pale-faced young men, and they didn't know what to do for a moment.

Bai Chuan sighed silently, these are just some things on the surface.

Is it really possible for a housewife like Ikemura Koe to get her hands on that kind of poison that can suffocate people to death instantly?You must know that it is not so easy to kill someone with drugs in a winery.

Could it be that Mrs. Ikemura went out to buy medicine and happened to run into some underground organization that was more awesome than a winery?
Therefore, there is a high probability that Mrs. Ikemura obtained this poison through the hands of others. So who is this person?
Don't forget, Sachiko Yoshiko is a talented student from Toto Medical College. It's hard to say whether there is anything fishy about this.

And if Shirakawa hadn't stopped him just now, Kudo Shinichi would have taken down the photos on the bookshelf and displayed in front of everyone what Mrs. Ikemura and Isao Ikemura looked like 20 years ago, thus leading to the fact that Mrs. Ikemura and Yoshiko Sachiko were almost exactly the same when they were young. .

But there is another issue involved here. Mrs. Ikemura and Ikemura Isao got married 15 years ago. At that time, Ikemura Takazan was already six or seven years old, and he was not a child who didn't understand anything.

Is it possible that he really doesn’t know that his current girlfriend looks exactly like the woman who forced his mother away and made her commit suicide 15 years ago?

In short, the hidden water behind this case is very deep.
