173. Mouri Kogoro’S Unreliable Reasoning
Mouri Kogoro continued to reason: "Then, the murderer used a device made of ice to shut down the power in the house. He immediately went to the front yard through the back door, and then hid in the trees in the front yard.
Waiting for the moment when the power was cut off, and looking for a good opportunity, he opened the glass door and ran into the classroom, stabbed Mrs. Uemori, and then escaped immediately. "
Wu Fan raised questions: "But the classroom was dark at that time. How did the murderer accurately find Mrs. Uemori's location and stab her?"
Mouri Kogoro said: "Well... Mrs. Uemori must have brought something or put it on it that will shine or can be used as a mark, right?"
Nishitani said: "No, no, it is absolutely impossible for the teacher to carry such a thing on his body."
Ran Mouri added: "I didn't notice it either."
Mouri Kogoro pondered for a moment and said: "Then the murderer must be carrying an infrared scanner. With that kind of thing, he can see it even in the dark."
Wu Fan was speechless: "Why are you talking more and more nonsense? Although things like infrared scanners can indeed do this, they are not easy to get."
Officer Megure asked Takagi Wataru: "How is it?"
Takagi Wataru replied: "We have checked the door handles on the inside and outside of the glass door, but Song found the fingerprints of ten people of Mr. Nishitani."
Officer Megure said: "This gangster probably wore gloves when he committed the crime. Conan940 just said that the last person who touched this door was Mr. Nishitani, so it is not surprising."
Takagi Wataru continued: "But one thing is strange. The fingerprints on the outside handle of the glass door are all collected completely, but the fingerprints on the inside handle have disappeared a little."
Officer Megure was shocked: "What? Isn't this too strange?"
Officer Megure took the report handed over by Takagi Wataru and said: "If the gangster wore gloves and opened the glass door from the outside, then Mr. Nishitani's fingerprints on the outside door handle should be incomplete."
Mouri Kogoro said: "But only the fingerprints on the inner door handle are complete."
Wu Fan thought to himself: "So, the murderer opened the glass door from the inside."
Takagi Wataru was confused: "What on earth is going on?"
Wu Fan said: "It means that the murderer did not come in from the front, but someone in the classroom. He wanted us to have the wrong idea that the murderer was an outsider, so he locked the door and stared at the villager from the inside."
Mouri Kogoro added: "You're right, I think he might have used a handkerchief to avoid fingerprints."
Officer Megure said: "According to Brother Wu Fan and Brother Mouri, this murderer is one of your group."
Kamimori Kaoru said hurriedly: "Wait a minute!"
He didn't get up until Kamimori Kaoru finished saying, "Officer Mu's cell phone rang (agef).
Officer Megure picked up the call, said a few words and then hung up.
Then, he looked at everyone seriously and said: "Just a few minutes ago, Mrs. Uemori died of breathing difficulties caused by pulmonary hemorrhage.
Everyone except Wu Fan was shocked after hearing this.
Officer Megure put the hat on his head and said in a serious tone: "In this way, this case becomes a murder case.
"Whoever set up the ice mechanism in the computer room, the four of you sitting here are not immune to suspicion. The refrigerator is within easy reach, even if you have to bring ice from your own home."
Mouri Kogoro looked at Officer Megure and said: "So, the focus is on the murder weapon. Miss Yuko, is there anything like an ice pick in this classroom?"
Komiyayama pointed to a place and said, "Yes, it's right next to the microwave oven, in the drawer on the right.
Mouri Kogoro picked up the handkerchief and picked up the iron rod in the drawer next to the microwave.
Mouri Kogoro handed these iron rods to Officer Megure: "Officer Megure, one end of these iron rods is also pointed. Miss Yuko, have you ever calculated the number of these iron rods?"
Xiaogongshan replied: "Yes, there should be ten."
Officer Megure looked at the iron bars in his hand and said, "But why are there only nine here?"
Komiyayama immediately explained: "This is impossible! I just counted them last night, and there were clearly ten at that time."
Mouri Kogoro said firmly: "Officer Megure, it seems that the missing iron rod is the murder weapon. The murderer stole an iron rod from this drawer in advance and used it to assassinate Mrs. Uemori."
Officer Megure is still doubtful: "But, these sticks don't even have a place to hold, can they really be used to kill people? If I were the murderer, I would definitely choose something with a handle as a murder weapon?"
Wu Fan said: "Not only that, the wound on Mrs. Shangmori's back looks much thinner than the iron rod."
Mouri Kogoro suggested: "Officer Megure, let's investigate and see what the four of them are carrying. Maybe we will find something.
Officer Megure looked at everyone and said, "Okay, now let the four of you put all the things you brought on the table."
Soon, everyone put everything on the table.
Officer Megure said while inspecting: "Scarves, ball pens, and then handkerchiefs. In addition, there are recipes. Everyone has almost everything."
Iron rod. "
Mouri Kogoro was a little confused: "It's strange, why is Miss Kazue the only one who brought a file and a brush?"
Yayo was a little unhappy: "What did you say? I don't like your way of speaking."
Mouri Kogoro asked Komiyayama next to him: "Miss Yuko, you left the classroom after Miss Kazueda arrived here, right?"
Komiyayama replied: "Yes, I went to the bathroom once."
Mouri Kogoro said confidently: "Then I know, the murderer is you, Miss Kazue."
Wu Fan was speechless: "Hey, hey...
Nishitani was a little unbelievable: "What? The murderer is Miss Kazue? Are you kidding me?"
Mouri Kogoro said angrily: "Miss Kazue, you just took advantage of Miss Yuko to go to the bathroom and stole the iron rod, because even in the dark, you knew the position of Mrs. Uemori, so you were able to get it right The stabbing hit Mrs. Uemori's back is because you always wear these sunglasses-like glasses, because your glasses have long been used to the dark, am I right?"
Wu Fan's mouth twitched after hearing this: "Don't say it, it does sound a little bit reasonable."
Yayo was furious and said: "Are you kidding me? I wear glasses like this because I am old and feel very dazzling every time I see light. Based on this, you suspect that I am the murderer." ?”
Mouri Kogoro continued: "Ms. Kazueda, when you were in class, you didn't put your bag on the shelf, but instead put it on your feet. Why is this? Can you tell me the reason?"
Yayo stood up and said with a cold snort: "This is because it will be much more convenient to have it by my side."
Mouri Kogoro mocked: "It's convenient for you to take out the iron rod, right?"
Yayo retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about! I didn't hold any iron rod at all. Besides, even if I had an iron rod, this kind of thing has no handle and there is no way to stab someone."
Mouri Kogoro said in a confident tone: "You can do anything like a handle. It's very simple. Just use your brush."
I saw Mouri Kogoro insert the iron rod into the brush and said: "Now, won't there be a handle?"
Officer Megure suddenly realized: "It's true."
Mouri Kogoro continued: "This way you can hide the murder weapon in this file and no one will find it."
Later, Mouri Kogoro opened the file and found nothing inside.
He was shocked: "Why not? How is this possible? This iron rod should be hidden in the gap inside."
Wu Fan was a little helpless: "Uncle, his imagination is too big. It would be a waste of talent not to be an editor."
Conan pointed to a potted plant next to him and said, "Uncle, is this the iron rod?"
