266. Double Chamber
"The victim is Miss Akiko Kokura, and I heard that she is a rising star in the photo girl world."
Takagi Suk summarized the on-site investigation and reported while recording.
Officer Megumi pondered: "Kyoko Kokura? Why do I seem to have heard of this name somewhere?"
"She seemed to be the first to discover the murder of the editor half a month ago," said Ran Maori.
"I remember." Takagi said: "That seems to be the case that Officer Shirato is responsible for."
"I heard that at the scene of the crime, the victim left the blood of Kira before his death." said Ran Maori.
Conan handed over the phone wrapped in a handkerchief, "This is a text message received by all the relevant personnel before the body was discovered."
Takagi Shibu thought, "This is also kira."
"Does this case have anything to do with the case Shiraki is responsible for?" Officer Megumi said in confusion.
At this time, the police officer in charge of the investigation came over with a bunch of electronic components in his hands, "We found suspicious things everywhere in this room."
Yuanzi glanced at it and said, "Isn't that the mechanism I used in the Shuisheng?"
"Subduing Spirits?" Takagi Shiro said curiously: "Is it a gathering that summons the souls of the dead?"
"That's that." Yuanzi nodded.
"Last night, a sermon was held here."
Conan added: "They intend to summon the soul of the idol actress, Miss Maharahara, who died in an accident a year ago."
"Miss Maharahara?" Officer Meguchi was a little surprised.
"I heard that she is very popular on role-playing websites," said Sonoko.
"Uh, do you mean role-playing when you are talking about roles dressed up as characters in comics or anime?" asked Officer Meguri.
"That's it." Takagi Shiro was very well-versed.
"Also, before Miss Maharahara died unexpectedly, she was a photo girl and an actress. There were many movie fans and fans who admired her," said Conan.
Officer Megumi asked in confusion: "Then why should we hold a spiritual siege?"
"Because of the rumors," Chen Xing said.
"What kind of rumor?" Takagi said curiously.
Officer Meguru glanced at him. Although he knew that he was trying to handle the case, this gossip was always taking advantage of his position.
Chen Xing said: "There are rumors of 'curs' among her fan clubs."
"Curse?" The two officers blinked, obviously interested in this strange thing.
Seeing this, Yuanzi immediately said in a low tone: "Even if it is circulating, the editor's murder was also attacked by Xiaohuang."
Chen Xing shook his head and said, "So they plan to summon Miss Huang's soul and ask the truth about these things."
"Then what, does the soul appear?" Takagi Shibu's eyes lit up, and he was a little excited.
"Please, how could it be really there?" Yuanzi waved her hand, "That's all a trick."
Ran Maori said: "That was actually designed by Mr. Hirasaka and Mr. Park Nogi. It was probably just to scare everyone."
Conan took the electronic devices from the policeman, then helped a drawing board up, glued it to the back like in a meditation room, and then pressed the switch.
Yayuan Huang's resurrection words sounded gloomy again.
Takagi swallowed between his throat, obviously feeling a little scary.
"By the way, there is something puzzling." The forensic police officer said: "There are no defensive scars on the body of the deceased, and traces left on the throat of the body. Only traces of twisted marks after being strangled by something like a string."
"Is it possible to use some medicine to make her fall asleep and then strangle the victim to death?" Takagi asked.
The forensic police officer shook his head and couldn't say anything.
Officer Meguru touched his chin and said, "After speaking, this room is really strange."
"This place is called the meditation room. I heard that Mr. Hirasaka would go into seclusion in this room when he was conceiving a comic." said Ran Mori.
"When the body was discovered, I heard that this was in a secret room?" Officer Megu asked.
"Yes, there is only this door at the entrance of this room." Yuanko said: "The room has a padlock from inside, and it is said that only Mr. Hirasaka has the key."
Takagi Suk said: "We still haven't found any keys."
Officer Meguru looked up at the window at a height and measured the height. "Although it can be roughly enough for someone to pass by, there is nothing here to climb there."
Takagi Shibu thought for a while, "Can you do it if you use the easel and chair in the room?"
"Even if you put an easel on the chair and climb up, you can't climb the window," said Yuanzi.
"Even if you can climb it, those things should be left under the window afterwards." Officer Megu had noticed it long ago.
"And, that window is electric," Conan said. "Whether it is necessary to turn on or off, you must use this switch."
Chen Xing pressed the switch on the wall, and the window slowly opened upwards, but when he released his finger, the open pane stopped.
"The same is true when it is turned off. You must keep pressing the switch."
"So, you shouldn't be able to escape from that window." Police Officer Meguchi said as he stumbled.
"So, how did the murderer do it?" Takagi Shiro was very confused.
Officer Meguchi shook his head, "Next, go and see another victim."
...
In Hirasaka Reiki's room.
"It should be that cyanide was used and mixed into the red wine." Police Officer Chiba said.
"There is no doubt locked here, right?" Officer Meguchi asked.
"Well, because only Mr. Hirasaka himself has the key here." Chen Xing said.
Officer Meguru glanced at the door lock that was obviously violently destroyed from the outside.
"I was worried about Mr. Hirasaka at that time, so I had no choice but to do so." Chen Xing said.
Officer Megu nodded. Just know who broke the door. Of course, he would not doubt these old friends.
"Have you found the key?" he asked.
"Finished." The female police officer next to her opened the locked drawer and found two keys under the notebook inside.
After trying it, although the lock core broke due to breaking the door, it is certain that one of them is the matching lock key.
"That key is made in Germany, and most people should not be able to copy it easily." Yuanzi glanced at it and was very sure.
Conan asked the female policewoman, "If you want to lock this door, you need this key from the outside or inside, right?"
"That's right." The female police officer nodded.
"The other one may be the key to the meditation room." Chen Xing said.
The female police officer hurried to confirm.
"Where is the rope that fell to the ground?" Conan asked.
Officer Chiba: "Although it must be checked in detail before it can be confirmed, it is very likely that it is the murder weapon that killed Miss Kokura."
"Where is the window over there?" Officer Meguru looked at the two windows that were pulling the curtains.
"It is indeed locked from the inside, and there are iron decorated panes on the outside, so they are simply inaccessible."
Officer Chiba said, looking up at the ventilation window above the door, "Since this ventilation window can only be opened about 10 cm, there is only this door at the entrance of the room, and its key is in the drawer in the room, and even that drawer is locked..."
