The Advent of the Infinite King

"That's right." Xie Chen said, "Sure enough, there are no traces of water dripping anywhere."

Mori Kogoro said: "But that kind of trick can be easily understood as long as the autopsy is performed."

Xie Chen said: "That's why the murderer needs to let the boss's body fall off the cliff together with the car. Because the body cannot be found, there is no way to investigate the stiffness after death."

Fortunately, Lu Tian interjected, "Then why did the car accelerate suddenly at that time?"

Xie Chen said: "That may be caused by the corpse's foot slipping off the brake pedal due to the bumpy road."

Xie Chen twitched the corners of his lips, and continued: "Also, there is something about the blanket covering the dashboard. It is because the murderer wanted people who approached the car not to see that the heater inside the car was on."

"So that's how it is." Kawazu Ikuo said, "Then just be in the house with someone and witness the car start by itself, that's fine, isn't it?"

Fortunately, Lu Tian said: "In this case, there will be a perfect alibi."

Xie Chen smiled. After all, all the people present were fans of Sherlock Holmes, so they knew everything.

"At that time..." Mao Lilan said softly: "Mr. Toba forced Miss Ling Zi to stay in the living room. It turned out that his main purpose of doing so was to create a witness who witnessed the car start with him."

"That's right." Xie Chen said: "And the only person who can do this is Miss Lingzi's companion, Mr. Toba."

Kento Toba, who had been silent all this time, suddenly let out a mocking laugh, "It's really interesting, your reasoning is as interesting as reading a novel."

Kento Toba pushed his eyes, and said confidently: "But it's a pity, there is no evidence to prove that I am the murderer."

He took a step forward, "And I have always emphasized that when the garage caught fire, I stayed in the house with everyone, so no matter what, when Lingzi and her arrive in the garage, I have no way to light it."

"You can, and it's very simple." Xie Chen said decisively: "You just need to tell her one thing, that is, the first edition of Sherlock Holmes is hidden under the back seat of the car in the garage."

Kento Toba's pupils shrank suddenly, looking at Hattori Heiji's eyes full of fear, he took a step back subconsciously.

"The first version?" Mori Kogoro asked, "What's going on here?"

Xie Chen said: "The car in the garage at that time was not only leaking oil, but even the battery was dead. Even if you want to find that book, the back seat will be dark because the lights in the car are not on. If it is you How will it be done?"

"How to do it?" Mori Kogoro thought for a while and said, "There is nothing to do in the darkness."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"correct!"

As if remembering something, Mori Kogoro said loudly: "Just find a lighter. Miss Lingzi lit the lighter to find the book, and the lighter flame ignited the gasoline that leaked from the car. "

"Then..." Hitomi Iwai said, "The one who lit the fire was herself?"

Kawazu Ikuo said: "But, didn't you say that she was an important witness to the first murder?"

Xie Chen said slowly: "Besides her, there were four other witnesses. There is no need to keep her alive."

"But!" Mao Lilan suddenly said loudly: "Ms. Lingzi is Mr. Toba's girlfriend, so why kill her?"

Xie Chen sighed silently. Under such circumstances, she still cares about such things. It is really hard for a girl of this age to understand.

"Don't think that others are kind just because you are kind." Xie Chen said psychologically.

Afterwards, Xie Chen said slowly: "That's because she broke through the trick of stiffening the corpse after death, and the evidence that Mr. Toba is the murderer. Everyone should remember."

"Remember what?" Mori Kogoro asked.

Xie Chen said: "Miss Lingzi suddenly said that she already knew who the murderer was. After hearing this, Mr. Toba was very anxious and pretended to follow her to the bathroom. In fact, he was planning to let her go to the garage to find the book. Book."

Kawazu Ikuo said, "If you put it this way, Mr. Toba was alone with her at that time."

Fortunately, Lu Tian said: "So when she came out of the toilet, her attitude was completely different. Mr. Toba is really amazing, and he was able to come up with such a trick."

"No." Xie Chen said, "Because that plan was originally prepared for another person. Fortunately for the murderer, Miss Ling Zi was the same as that person, and both of them were carrying lighters."

Fujisawa Toshiaki subconsciously went into his trouser pocket and touched the lighter in the pocket.

"That's right." Xie Chen continued, "The trap set in the garage was originally prepared to burn Mr. Fujisawa to death."

"What?" Toshiaki Fujisawa broke out in a cold sweat.

Xie Chen glanced at him and continued, "You all should remember that Mr. Fujisawa received a card saying that if you want to get the original version of Sherlock Holmes, you can find it in the back seat of the garage."

"But I didn't expect Miss Lingzi to discover his secret first, so he decided to use the trap in the garage to kill Miss Lingzi first, and then he had an idea, used the plug trick to cause a power outage, and attacked Mr. Fujisawa with an ice pick in the dark. "

Mori Kogoro leaned on his chin and said, "It turned out to be like this, so only the evidence of the crime was left during the third murder."

Xie Chen said: "If the trick was done by Mr. Toba, the person involved in the kitchen, it should be easy. That is, after connecting the three incidents in series, only Mr. Toba may be responsible in the end. Do you admit it?"

Kento Toba clenched his fists, looked up at Hattori Heiji and asked, "Okay, then show me the evidence. If you are so sure, you should have evidence."

Xie Chen smiled, and then said: "Don't you know? Miss Ling Zi saw something in your room during the day yesterday."

Kento Toba still said confidently: "Even if she really saw something, she can't tell anyone now."

"First question, what is Sherlock Holmes best at?" Xie Chen suddenly asked, "Second question, what is the name of Dr. Watson's wife?"

Kento Toba was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Why are you asking me all of a sudden!"

Xie Chen said: "Could it be that you have forgotten it? You should have the [-]-question test paper for Sherlock Holmes."

Kento Toba gritted his teeth, unable to speak.

Xie Chen continued to ask: "Then question [-], what is the content of the letter Holmes wrote to the murderer using the code of the dancing portrait?"

The corners of Kento Toba's mouth trembled, and he forced a smile, "I remember this question very clearly. The answer is to come right away."
