Conan’s Corpse Picker

Miwako Sato: "Because it involved a murder case in a secret room, we specifically checked with the front desk afterwards - there are people at the front desk 24 hours a day, and those spare keys are kept in a locked cabinet, and there must be a registration for lending. According to the records Well, the night the assistant died, that is to say, since the formation of the secret room, no one has ever borrowed the assistant's door key."

   "No, I remember someone who borrowed it." Jiang Xia said, "And under the watchful eyes of everyone, he ran to borrow the assistant's door key in a fair manner."

  Blonde female secretary: "...who is so arrogant."

  The lobby manager who came to join in the fun vaguely thought of something, and his face changed slightly.

The next moment, Jiang Xia's words confirmed his conjecture: "As detectives or policemen, or even ordinary enthusiastic passers-by, when we know that there may be a murder or a dead body in a room, one thing we will definitely do is to put The door opened to eliminate the danger inside.

"In other words, the moment we found out that the assistant was the target of 'Silver Funeral' and wanted to get into her room, that's when 'Silver Funeral' volunteered to help us borrow a spare key for our room from the front desk—get the key from the front desk , The period of running back to the door of the secret room is the only time to avoid the front desk and change the key back."

   "The person who went to borrow the key..." Mao Lilan remembered the scene at that time, and was stunned, "It's Miss Naoko?! But she, isn't she the first murder target of the "Funeral Silver Coin"!"

  Suzuki Sonoko stared at the black shadow beside the hospital bed, thinking that things that can be solved with hands don't need to use brains: "This is simple! Jiang Xia has already caught people out, just lift the bed curtain and take a look."

   "..."

   May be finding nowhere to hide in the ward.

   There was a moment of silence, before they could make a move, the bed curtain was lifted, and a black figure came out from the shadows and stood under the light—as expected, it was Naoko Torimaru, a senior executive of Boduo Fashion Design Club.

   A group of people either expected it or looked at her in shock.

  There is only one person with rich ingredients, who is shocked and expected.

  Maya Hashimoto: "..." This guy who looks like Uzo is actually a woman? !

  Wait, Mr. Ireland seems to have said that when he was in London, he met someone who was probably Uzo. According to the description, the appearance of "Uzo" is curly hair, black clothes, sunglasses, young man...it doesn't match anything with the woman in front of him.

  ...But thinking about it the other way around, when Mr. Ireland faced Uzo, he always turned into that ghostly appearance. Isn't it normal that his description is inaccurate?

   Maybe that was what Uzo used to mislead him.

  Hashimoto Maya: "..." From this angle, think about it in reverse: Uzo is a young woman with straight hair, a skirt, and brown glasses, which seems to make sense.

  But before that, first of all, is Naoko Torimaru really an Usa?

   Maya Hashimoto was lost in thought.

Then I feel that no matter which way I explain it, things make sense: Uzo's script is flawless, and if Jiang Xia, a detective who has already noticed traces of Uzo, does not intervene, then things will become "the mastermind behind the scenes" by Inozuka Jiro "Reaping the fruit, others have no objection to the case. This case will indeed be a case that can be closed seamlessly—it may even be regarded as an interesting story, and it will become a regular topic of conversation after dinner.

  Hashimoto Maya: "..." But now, with Jiang Xia's intervention, the situation has become a confrontation between two case geniuses. When everyone is slack, why can't Wu Zuo capsize in the gutter and fall into Jiang Xia's hands? He swore to the death to defend every cadre's right to roll over!

   In addition, as a cadre, Uzo must have many subordinates, but the mistake of "Jiro Inozuka is not dead", it is better to correct it himself than to let his subordinates end in embarrassment. So it is not impossible for Uzo's real body to appear here...

   After such an analysis, Maya Hashimoto doesn't know whether Naoko Torimaru is Uzo or not.

   But there's one thing he knows.

  —He really hoped that the person who was hooked by Jiang Xia was Uzuo, and he sincerely wished Uzuo would be caught.

  Maya Hashimoto: "..." Unknowingly, the pressure brought on by this cadre has surpassed that of being held accountable by the organization...

  …

  The messy information in Hashimoto Maya's mind did not affect the progress of the case.

  Under his strange gaze of "yes", "no", "yes", "no", Naoko Torimaru left from the hospital bed and looked up at Jiang Xia.

The door was blocked by a group of detective police and onlookers, but Naoko Torimaru did not show much panic. She raised her hand and pinned the hair hanging from her temples behind her ears, as if surprised: "What are you doing around the door? ? Didn’t you come to visit Mr. Inozuka’s condition like me? Why don’t you come in.”

   "?" The blond female secretary yelled angrily, "Stop pretending, you murderer! Why are you visiting the sick? You are here to kill—the power cord you unplugged is still hanging on the ground!"

"Oh, that." Even the way Naoko Torimaru asked for evidence was more elegant than other murderers: "Mr. Inozuka on the hospital bed suddenly turned into a puppet model. I was shocked. Accidentally pulled the thread while retreating in a hurry."

"It was just an unintentional accident. You wouldn't arrest people just because of this." Naoko Torimaru said, "As for the secret room technique you mentioned just now... There are people in that room, and there are keys, maybe One of them locked the door."

  Hashimoto Maya came back to her senses and glanced at her quietly: "..." Huh? This kind of yin and yang tone is a bit like Uzo.

  He obeyed his heart and threw a weight on the balance of "it's Uzo" in his heart.

   Then silently retreated behind Jiang Xia, and decided to hand over the scene to the magical detective.

But before Jiang Xia, the little boy with strange glasses spoke again, and Conan said: "But I remember that on the first night, I saw sister Naoko in the corridor. When you returned to the room, you were different from other people." , There is no action of 'inserting the key to unlock' at all, because your room key has already been handed over to the front desk at that time, right."

Naoko Torimaru: "Inferences without evidence can only be called 'storytelling'. No matter from which angle you look at it, I have only one identity, and that is the victim of this serial murder—I'm almost one It was poisoned to death."

Jiang Xia shook her head: "As long as you know in advance that there is poison in the glass, you have countless ways to avoid drinking that glass of wine. The 'nearly being poisoned' is just a trick you use to help yourself get rid of suspicion. "
