Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 2003 2003 [Failed to insert script]

But Maya Hashimoto soon came back to his senses: If he was really a good person, then he might not be aware of the slight temptation from Jiang Xia at all, and Jiang Xia would not even test him at all.

"Other people who think Jiang Xia has a good temper can indeed get along happily with Jiang Xia, but the problem is... I am a member of the organization." Maya Hashimoto felt that she had found the root cause, "Not only an organization member, but even a Uzo sent to Jiang Xia The undercover around me. Alas, maybe this is the fate of the undercover."

 I can’t express my sufferings, so I can only work hard.

Fortunately, it was as Wu Zuo expected: Jiang Xia was a law-abiding detective after all. Even if he had doubts about him, they were just doubts. They would not shoot him cleanly and use physical means to eliminate doubts like the organization did.

 Perhaps even because he was suspicious, Jiang Xia would, in order to observe him, acquiesce in allowing him to stay by his side and give him a chance to get close.

 When the innocent undercover agent of the organization was silently suffering in his heart.

Iced black tea is in place, and Jiang Xia finally begins to solve the case.

 He ​​pointed in the direction of the projection room: "Those two projectors are the key props used by Mr. Projectionist to create an alibi."

"Wait!" Before the projectionist said anything, the saleswoman became anxious, "Don't talk nonsense! Mr. Furuhashi was in the projection room when that guy was hung up and blocked the projection. I can prove it!"

Jiang Xia: "You were indeed in the projection room at that time, but that was not the time when the deceased was hung in front of the projection window - didn't Conan just say that there was more than one projection window. The murderer could have hung the deceased in front of one of the projection windows in advance , and then cover the window with something opaque.

“When the movie was playing, the light in the screening room was very dark. Even if someone occasionally looked to the back, they could only see a few other small lighted windows, thus ignoring the place where the body was hung.”

The projectionist thought of this and snorted: "But the projection of the corpse appears suddenly. Unless two projectors are used to switch seamlessly, this effect cannot be achieved. And didn't I ask you to check it just now? The video tape is very complete, this method is just your speculation."

Jiang Xia was very patient: "In fact, even if you don't cut the video tape and only use one projector, you can switch the playback from two windows - I heard that every time the deceased came to the theater to cause trouble, he would sit right in front of the projection window and smoke. , you want to use smoke to disrupt the image, right?”

Everyone in the theater didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this, but when he was suddenly asked, they still replied: "Yes, the projected light beam is more obvious in the screening room. Although the projection window we use is different every time, That **** always knows where to sit."

Jiang Xia: "Projector No. 1 was used for the screening just now, and the image should be projected from window No. 1. But when I went to the back row of the screening hall just now, I saw the deceased's cigarette butts and footprints right in front of the projection window No. 2 - He was sitting in front of window No. 2 today."

The male college student pushed up his glasses: "He must be in a bad mood today and looked at the wrong place."

Jiang Xia shook his head: "There is an old employee lounge outside the projection room. The things inside are in tatters. The mirror on the wall was broken and has not been replaced." So the projectionist removed two pieces from the mirror in advance. He fixed one of the broken lenses in projection window No. 2, and placed the other in front of projector No. 1 so that he could adjust the position at any time.

“When the movie was played, although Projector No. 1 was running, due to the reflection of these two mirrors, the final picture was projected from Projection Window No. 2. This is the key to the alibi.”

He thought for a while and then said: "In addition, from the screening room to the cinema, the counter where the salesperson is located is the only way. And I remember that when the first movie was over and there was an intermission, the salesperson forgot Buy staff meals. So Mr. Projectionist gave her a trick and asked her to buy them after the next movie starts. There are usually no audiences during that time, so the sales will not be delayed. So the saleswoman agreed - of course, even if she didn't forget When buying a lunch box, Mr. Projectionist would also ask her to buy tea for him during that time to pay her off.

"After making these preparations in advance, when the salesperson left the counter to go shopping, the projectionist also took the opportunity to leave the screening room. He rushed to the air-conditioned room first, adjusted the wind direction and increased the intensity of the wind. Then he came He went to the projection hall, strangled the deceased with a rope that was readily available in the hall, and hung him in front of the No. 1 projection window.

"Next, Mr. Projectionist returned to the screening room as if nothing had happened. When the saleslady came in to see him after buying something, he could use the cover of the projector to quietly remove the cover from window No. 1 and move it in front of Projector No. 1. Take away the mirror.

“In this way, the originally distorted light re-emitted from window No. 1. This projection was blocked by the corpse hanging in front of window No. 1, and a black shadow immediately appeared on the screen.

“And because the direction and wind force of the air conditioner had been adjusted, the body of the deceased was slightly swayed. It looked like he had just been hung up and was swaying slightly with the remaining force.

“At this time, you only need to make a surprised sound in the screening room and attract the saleswoman to come to the screening window to check, and you will successfully have an ‘alibi’.”

 The projectionist’s face changed suddenly.

Next to him, in a corner that was not noticed by most people, Maya Hashimoto also looked disheveled.

Unfortunately, when he sneaked into the screening room just now and wanted to find an agent to sign a contract, a thunder scene happened to be playing on the movie screen.

Snowy white lightning illuminated the screen and lit up the theater for a brief moment. At that moment, Maya Hashimoto looked across the auditorium and saw the dangling figure hanging behind him.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong. I actually thought that if I learned more about script structure, I could predict Uzo's case by guessing the script." Maya Hashimoto wiped tears silently on her face, feeling remorseful and wanting to hit the wall. : "But I forgot that any background and inside story in the script can be mentioned in narration. But in reality, those backgrounds must have really happened."

　　Previously, he naively thought that he could quietly insert between two event nodes and escape easily. Before anything happened, he could quietly finalize his work to avoid being disturbed by his boss.

But it turns out that Uzo, a realistic scriptwriter, is completely different from others - the space between his two event nodes is full of useful information, so much so that Maya Hashimoto almost choked to death when he tried to insert it.
