Every Day on the Verge of Being Arrested By Detectives

"Hey! It's back to the subject, can you wait until the investigation is over if you have a fan meeting?" Hattori Heiji knocked on the conference table with the folder unhappy.

Nao Yoshikawa, the bearded man, let go of Mouri Kogoro's hand embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, I finally saw the Maori detective. I was a bit too excited for a while..." He sat back in his seat and continued to look at Maori Kogoro with hot eyes. Goro, I only saw Kogoro getting cold behind his back.

"In short, please repeat the whole process of finding the corpse that day." Hattori Heiji opened the information of the first case. "Please remember, did you miss anything?"

"We made it very clear when we recorded the transcript. We were climbing the stairs and saw a white figure falling from the slope. We thought it was a climber who had an accident, so we rushed back down the slope. Who knows? What arrived was..." The captain, Akira Sakata paused here, recalling the scene at that time, his face was a little bad, "It turned out to be a naked and skinned woman."

"Oh..." There was a sound of vomiting on the side. The long-haired woman Mitsuko Nishimura quickly covered her mouth. Seeing this scene, Mao Lilan hurried to the drinking fountain in the lounge and poured hot water for her, Yuan Shan and Ye Then quickly handed over the handkerchief.

Fortunately, Mitsuko Nishimura did not really vomit, but simply retched. She took a sip of hot water from the cup that Mao Lilan handed over to suppress her nausea, and then waved her hand helplessly to everyone: "I'm so sorry. Every time I think of that scene, I feel nauseous. That skinned face is really..." At this point, she wanted to nause again, and Mao Lilan quickly patted her on the back.

"..." Mouri Kogoro twitched his lips. Can the investigation go on smoothly this time?

"I don't want it either. The impact is really too great. You didn't know when we found her...because the back of her head landed on the ground, the girl's brain and blood flew out, and the front face was bloody, just white. His eyeballs and white teeth were bare outside...it was really miserable." Mitsuko Nishimura covered her mouth, her face turned blue.

When Morilan and Toyama and Ye heard this, their faces began to turn blue, and Edogawa Conan gave Hattori Heiji a wink when he saw that he coughed twice.

"Ahem, and have you noticed anything else?"

"I think there should be no more." Yasoko Kikuchi with short flax hair hesitated. "When we saw the naked body, we were all shocked. Mitsuko and I were so scared that they didn't dare to look at it. In the end, the captain took off his jacket. Cover the body and call the police."

The white and fat Sanuchi Shangshu nodded: "Yes, we all think it is not good to let her lie naked all the time. After the captain finishes putting up the clothes and calls the police, we will stay there, no one is near... Is there anything else, I think the police also searched it out?"

The bearded man Yoshikawa who has been watching Kogoro Mouri and his eyes hasn’t moved, said, “I’m sure only the corpse fell at the time. Because the deceased was not wearing clothes, I suspected it was a murder for the first time, so I immediately looked up at the slope. Above, I saw a black figure, because it was just dawn and the trees on the **** obscured the line of sight, so I didn’t see the other person clearly... I have already reported this to the police.” After he finished, he looked expectantly. To Mori Kogoro.

"..." Is this because you want him to praise him? Kogoro Mouri twitched his mouth and praised: "Oh, your reaction is fast, and your observation skills are good!"

The bearded man Yoshikawa Nao was even more excited. He added: "Thank you Maori detective for the compliment! Observation is the basic skill of a detective. I also subconsciously exercise it on weekdays! In fact, when I looked up, the corner of my eye seemed to see it. Something blue, but it was gone when I lowered my head again. At that time, I felt that I had read it wrong, so I didn't tell the police..."

"Did you see what it was?!" Hattori Heiji asked quickly.

The bearded man Yoshikawa frowned in distress: "No, it was just a glance at the corner of his eye, I didn't see it clearly, but it always felt like something soft." Because he looked up for the perpetrator for the first time, he didn't have time to look at the corpse. He suddenly raised his head to look at the top of the slope. The blue thing flashed past his sight, leaving only a vague impression in his mind.

"Mr. Policeman, wouldn't you ask us to come over to ask these questions repeatedly?" Said Mitsuko Nishimura, who eased over, "I specifically asked for leave."

Otaki Goro hurriedly went to see Hattori Heiji. Although he reported the progress of the case to his boss according to Hattori Heiji's request, he also sent the 5 climbers who found their bodies to the police station, but he did not know that Hattori Heiji was solved. How many puzzles. In other words, he, like everyone on the scene, is still in a daze.

"Of course not." Hattori Heiji confidently drew out a document and shook it in front of everyone: "Everyone went crazy about the urban legend of [White Pink Lady] because they saw a white figure rushing away at the second crime scene. There is also white powder left on the ground. We identified this powder as a non-slip powder."

"Anti-skid powder?" The crowd cried out in doubt.

"This kind of anti-skid powder has a wide range of uses. In addition to being used by gymnasts for anti-skid performance on steel pipes, it is also often used..." Hattori Heiji said here with a meaningful expression, "climbing."

As soon as the words came out, the five climbers shook their hearts. The first thing that reacted was that Yoshikawa, a bearded man who likes to see inferences, said: "You mean to suspect that the murderer is among us? But things like anti-skid powder are everywhere. If you can buy it, you wonder if we were too sloppy, and we found the corpse together. We have no possibility of doing it!"

"I didn't say that the first victim was killed by someone of you, but the second, third, and fourth are not necessarily the case." Hattori Pingji spread his hands.

"What do you mean, Heiji?" Toyama and Ye asked in confusion, "Isn't this a serial murder case?"

"[White Powder Po] is indeed a serial murder case, but not one, but two cases!" Hattori Heiji said loudly.

"What—?!" Astonished by the amount of information in Hattori Heiji's words, everyone in the room cast their eyes on him.

"Yes, these are two cases! The first was the case of an unnamed female corpse falling off a cliff in Changbin Mountain, and the second was the subsequent murder of a girl in Nagahama High School." Hattori Heiji walked to the white board in front of the lounge. Previously, photos of several murders were posted on whiteboards with magnets.

He continued: "In the eyes of the masses, the two cases are regarded as the same case because the deceased have the same characteristics." He raised two fingers, "One is that the deceased are both young women, and the other is that the deceased have the same characteristics. The dead were skinned."

"Yeah, what's the problem?" Toyama and Ye still didn't understand. "Doesn't this mean that the same murderer did it? How could it become two murderers?"

Hattori Heiji glanced at Edogawa Conan. He put four photos on the conference table. Inside were photos of several victims' wrists enlarged and the edges of their faces peeled.

Hattori Heiji once again explained the difference between the deceased in the first case and the deceased in other cases carefully: "...The edges of the first deceased's face were cut smoothly without any traces of restraint. They were skinned by professionals after anesthesia; the next three The edges of the victim’s skin were rough and uneven, and there were blue-purple streaks on the wrists caused by struggling. The murderer apparently had no professional training. This shows that there were two murderers in the [White Pink Lady] case."

"The police knew this information from the beginning. They still regarded the two cases as one case because they were misled by more in-depth information." Hattori Heiji's expression became serious.

"What is it?" Mouri Kogoro frowned. With such obvious clues, it is impossible for the police to make such low-level misjudgments.

"It's the physical characteristics of the deceased." Hattori Heiji said: "In the four cases of [White Powder Po], the deceased were petite and slender, and their skin was abnormally fair. Most importantly, their heights were all 160cm! The police were worried that they would panic the masses. , Has not disclosed the photos and details of the deceased in the first skinning case, even if imitating the crime, it is impossible to be accurate to this level."

"The only people who can get the information about the first deceased are you who discovered the deceased and participated in the investigation!" Hattori Heiji pointed to the three men and two women opposite, "The most important thing is that the anti-skid powder found on the scene after the crime was It is specially formulated and added with moisturizing and whitening ingredients. It is a new product launched by the Nagahama Government in cooperation with the Nagahama Mountaineering Association in order to increase revenue. Only members of the Nagahama Mountaineering Club are using it in Japan!"

Edogawa Conan added milkyly: "Because the Changbin Mountain Moon Lake is becoming more and more famous, the number of tourists who come to Nagahama mountaineering has increased, and the main female climbers accounted for a high proportion. So the government wants to use this to introduce the place. The brand's anti-slip powder, which has both whitening, moisturizing and anti-slip effects, was developed a year ago. It was sent to the Nagahama Mountaineering Association a few months ago, so that the climbing members of the association can use it for free to get the after-use experience. Murderer I must have never thought that this will become a clue to lock him/her... This was discovered by my second brother Heping when he checked the information last night."

"!" The evidence was too hard to refute. The five climbers closed their mouths and began to look at their companions with suspicion.

"Then I want to ask five people, where and what did you do on June 25, July 2, and July 8, and do you have any witnesses?" Hattori Heiji asked solemnly.

June 25 and July 2 were the events that occurred in the second case, the third case, and the fourth case, respectively.

-----Dividing line-----

Yutani parked the car outside Nagahama Amusement Park, and Sakuma Nanase took the lead to get off. She looked at the colorful amusement park in the fence under the umbrella, always feeling a little bit to complain.

To be honest, she and Jiang Gu Ling are both adults. Is it really okay to come to such a lovely amusement park for a date at this age? Although the two of them have baby-faced faces, they will not be watched, but why did Jiang Guling make this itinerary? Does he think any of the two would like this light and fluffy thing?

Suddenly Sakuma Nanase's gaze fell on the brightly colored umbrella in her hand, and she patted her forehead with a palm, it was her!
