"That's right."

Lin Xinyi continued to ask softly without any doubt:

"I heard, Mr. Matsui, you are Gomera's leather suit actor."

"That Gomera's leather case is tailor-made according to your figure, right?"

"Well... that's right."

Matsui Hideo replied with a normal expression:

"Should only people who are similar in size to me can move freely in that leather case."

"I understand."

Lin Xinyi stood up and ended the investigation of Matsui Hideo.

He also turned his head and ordered to his subordinates:

"I've finished examining the wound, you can bandage Mr. Matsui now."

It seems that Lin Xinyi didn't find any problems.

And Conan is not surprised by this.

He was not questioning Lin Xinyi's ability.

It's just that Lin Xinyi just arrived at the scene, and he didn't even have time to do his best autopsy.

So far, he has only initially learned about the case from Conan and others, and then ran over to check Mr. Matsui's injuries and asked two procedural questions.

The investigation is limited, and the clues we have are naturally limited.

Therefore, it is normal that Lin Xinyi hasn't noticed anything strange yet.

Conan thought so.

"Let me remind him..."

"As long as they pay attention to the fake footprints, with Lin Xinyi's ability, it shouldn't be difficult to guess the truth."

The seal is completely lifted, and Conan no longer restrains himself.

He held his breath and moved his breath to his dantian, and was about to use his usual "Ah Lie Lie" method.

But at this moment...

Before the "Ah Lie Lie" was uttered, Conan's singing was interrupted:

"The murderer is you, Mr. Matsui."

Lin Xinyi said so suddenly.

"Hey?!"

Everyone was slightly taken aback.

Conan held back his breath and almost choked to death:

how so…

Lin Xinyi ran over to ask about the case, and chatted with Matsui Hideo for a while, so, can he see the truth?

"Are you kidding..."

Hideo Matsui questioned with an ugly face:

"My leg was stabbed by 'Gomera', how could it be the murderer?"

"Because your leg wasn't stabbed in the first place, it's probably just fake blood from a movie, a disguise used to deceive children."

"After the murder, you took off the holster and changed your clothes before returning to the prop room and stabbing yourself with a knife!"

Lin Xinyi said firmly.

As if he had opened his eyes, he told all of Matsui Hideo's tricks.

"No...not possible."

Hideo Matsui also couldn't imagine how this manager Lin could see the truth as soon as they met.

"Evidence, without evidence, how can you talk nonsense?"

He asked in such a panic.

"Do you need evidence?"

Lin Xinyi sighed a little funny:

"Look at the wound on your leg..."

"I don't even have to look for other evidence—"

"The wound on your leg is proof!"

Chapter 255 Self-mutilation also requires knowledge

"Injury?" Hideo Matsui was a little too late to react:

He used it to camouflage his injuries at the beginning, the pair of pants stained with paint and fake blood, but he immediately replaced them after committing the crime.

And now the wound on his thigh was stabbed out by him again with all his heart, it was a real knife wound.

In order to make my injury look more real...

Matsui Hideo cleverly held the knife handle backwards.

In this way, with the back of the knife facing up and the edge facing down, the wound looks more like being stabbed by someone rather than by oneself.

When the police arrived at the scene, the blood in the wound had already solidified, making it impossible to tell the difference in the time of injury.

The wound is real wound, the blood is real blood, and even the edge of the blade has been carefully adjusted.

How could the forest management officer see the flaw at a glance?

"Mr. Matsui."

Lin Xinyi did not give an explanation directly, but asked meaningfully:

"Tell me again, how did you get stabbed by the murderer?"

Matsui Hideo was taken aback for a moment, and re-described obediently:

"As soon as I walked in, the guy in the Gemera holster suddenly stabbed me with a knife."

"I was stabbed in the thigh by him before I could react."

"Then did the murderer hold the knife in his left hand or his right hand?" Lin Xinyi asked an extra question this time.

"Eh..." Hideo Matsui hesitated for a while.

Obviously, he was thinking about the impact of his answer.

And he was still struggling to answer, and Conan's classmate on the side provided evidence very forcefully:

"It should be the right hand~"

"'Gomera' used his right hand when he killed Producer Kamei in front of us."

"He is right-handed. When he stabbed Mr. Nagai, he should have held the knife with his right hand!"

"it is good."

Lin Xinyi followed Conan's words:

"Since the murderer is holding the knife in his right hand, he is attacking you head-on."

"Then the injury he caused should most likely be on your left side—"

"How did this knife stab the outside of your right leg?!"

Why is it stabbed on the outside of the thigh...

Of course, it was because stabbing the outside of the right leg was the easiest way to injure myself with a knife in my right hand.

Thinking of this negligence, Hideo Matsui's expression was a little flustered.

But before he had time to react, Lin Xinyi continued to speak in an orderly manner:

"Imagine, everyone, how to use a knife to make a 'stab' action."

"Actually, to sum up, there are only two basic types of common forms of stab wounds—"

"Over-the-shoulder style, and low-hand style."

Over-the-shoulder style refers to the way of holding the stabbing device and raising the hand above the shoulder to stab.

In layman's terms, it is "tie" from top to bottom.

The low-hand posture is the way to stab directly without lifting the arm after holding the stabbing device.

In layman's terms, it is "poking" from the bottom up.

The stab wounds formed by the former are mostly from top to bottom, while the wounds formed by the latter are mostly from bottom to top.

"And Mr. Matsui's wound shape is strange."

"His stab wound is almost vertical."

"It's neither 'stab' nor 'stab', but rather like someone 'stabbed' straight into his leg."

"Then, everyone can imagine..."

Lin Xinyi paused slightly, and added:

"The murderer is about the same height as Mr. Matsui—if he can fit into the Gomera holster tailored for Mr. Matsui, he must be about the same size as Mr. Matsui."

"Suppose we are the murderer, holding a knife in our right hand to attack a target who just opened the door and stood in front of us, who is about the same height as us."

"What kind of strange posture do we have to make a vertical stab on the outside of the target's right leg?"

Everyone imagined it according to Lin Xinyi's statement:

Indeed, this is too strange.
