Detective Conan's Scarlet Miracle

Chapter 660 Red Tragedy ([-])

"What about salt?"

Uehara Yui's eyes also became serious, and the gaze towards Chengxiang gradually became vigilant.

Sera Masumi took out a small jar of salt from his pocket and lightly sprinkled it into the pot.

"First dissolve part of the salt in the water, let the tomato reach the critical state of half-sinking and half-floating, and then just sprinkle a little more salt..."

As she spoke, she continued to sprinkle salt into the pot.

"The salt concentration in the salt water inside increased, and it was denser than high-sugar tomatoes, so the tomatoes floated up. In order not to be suspected afterwards, Ms. Chengxiang used bath salts specially, so Miss Chengxiang pretended that she was in the water. The second floor was cleaned, and Mr. Sukaya, who was cleaning the bathroom, sneaked up on him. After knocking him unconscious with a dumbbell, he drowned in the bathtub. In order to prevent the body from floating, he pressed the dumbbell on it, and at the same time put a lot of salt in the bathroom. Pour the bath salt just enough to make the tomatoes float, close the lid, and then invite you to help clean up, and then ask you to confirm that there is nothing in the water by testing the water temperature. Finally, as long as you are the first to enter the bathroom, Just add a little bath salt to make the tomato float up."

"The proof is that it's the same as me who picked up the corpse from the bath, your cuffs are also covered..."

Sera Masumi walked up to Chengxiang, grabbed her cuff, and pulled down her rolled-up sleeve bit by bit, revealing tiny particles.

"Salt crystals that appeared on the cuffs soaked in high-concentration salt water."

"It should have gotten wet when I added a lot of bath salts and stirred it at the beginning. You can see through it at a glance. When we saw you just now, your sleeves were clearly placed at the bottom, but they have been rolled up since the incident happened. But from the very beginning, I thought you were a little strange."

"In the beginning?"

Chengxiang's heart skipped a beat.

Conan showed a teasing smile, pointed at Sera Masumi and said:
"The older sister who was chasing after you just now is Kurosawa, and this is Sera's younger sister that you entrusted, she is a girl!"

Sera Masumi's face froze for a moment.

Jumi and Ren Tian look at Sera Masumi in embarrassment.

"Because everyone else thought it was Sera-san who was a boy, only Ms. Chengxiang handed the photo to her without asking anything."

"That's because you already knew that sister Sera is a female high school detective, right?"

"So I think sister Xiaolan and the others saw you in the forest this time, you should be Miss Chengxiang, and they heard our conversation at that time."

Chengxiang lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, then suddenly sneered under the watchful eyes of her two friends.

"Yeah..." She gritted her teeth a little bit, "I wore a long wig, red raincoat and red boots, and pretended to be a naked girl, in order to find out that shameless coward who refused to save Satoko. !"

"Don't help me?" Zhu Mei reunited in doubt, "What do you mean?"

Chengxiang said: "I only found out after asking the police a few years ago that Satoko's body was found in the swamp wearing a red coat."

Ren Tian immediately noticed something was wrong, and quickly said, "Hey, hey! Wasn't Satoko wearing a beige coat at that time?"

"yes……"

After Chengxiang was exposed, her eyes gradually became sinister.

"But at that time, Satoko was pretending to be a red girl just like me."

"But the red girl I saw in the forest at that time was Satoko?" Zhumi was still puzzled.

"She originally said so, and then suggested that everyone go to the forest to search, and then pretended to be alone and then pretended to be a naked girl to scare him, so that this prank must be helped by someone, that is, we led us to the girl who pretended to be a naked girl. Satoko, that is, at Bogu, I used apples, rose petal paint, etc., just to remind him of the red girl to show intimidation, but he didn't show his feet immediately, but after I pretended to be the red girl, he finally said Leaked, because the only one who would treat Congzi as a naked girl was the accomplice who assisted him at that time."

"As a result, before he was killed by me, he muttered that I was too scared to go to the agreed place. So I couldn't say it. It must be lost in the forest and couldn't find the agreed place. At that time, If he had just mentioned the prank, Satoko wouldn't have..."

Chengxiang gritted her teeth, tears gushed from her eyes.
