6. Freeze

"Since yesterday was Guasheng's birthday, everyone decided to gather together to celebrate his birthday." Gao Lisheng lowered his head and said, "After all, he had such a bad birthday last year."

"Have a bad birthday?" Kogoro Mouri puzzled.

"About this time last year, everyone gathered in this villa for vacation." Gao Lisheng said: "It happened that day was Guasheng's birthday. Shi Li made a suggestion, saying that she wanted to scare Guasheng.

So we secretly climbed along the balcony to Guasheng's sleeping room, and used a cannon to scare Guasheng's ear, but we didn't expect that the guy was so frightened that he actually started crying on the spot. As a result, Shi Li recorded Guasheng's appearance and put it online for people to browse."

After hearing this, Kogoro Mouri snorted coldly, "So that's it, so you three should all have a full motivation to kill Mr. Ishiri, right?"

"What motive?" Gao Lisheng was stunned and said anxiously: "I just went to Shili's room once. Haven't I been with you all the time since then? Not only did I chat and talk to you here, but I also told the child that the air conditioning in the living room was not too cold, so I asked him to go to Shili's room to rest."

Conan nodded and said, "After that, I saw Mr. Shili in the corridor, and he took me to his room."

Gao Lisheng hurriedly said, "Since there are children sleeping in the room, how can they kill people?"

"Uh, it's true." Officer Henggou touched his chin, feeling a little confused.

After the three of them were asked, he thought, "No matter what tricks they used, the people who could move the body of a fat Mr. Shili, except Mr. Gaoli, shouldn't anyone else do it?"

"However, if you just move your upper body, even girls can do it, right?" Kogoro Mori said: "As long as you put the body in front of the door, the prisoner lets go of his hand and lets the body fall down and then closes the door..."

"No, because the buttocks of the body are exactly where the door can be blocked, and the assumption you put forward cannot be successful." Police Officer Henggou shook his head and said, "And the spare key for Mr. Shili's room has not been found yet."

"What kind of key is that?" asked Toro Amuro.

"This key is exactly the same as the key placed in the corpse's pocket." Police officer Henggou took out the physical evidence bag, which contained a very ordinary key. "No reports on the key have been found yet."

"Will it be thrown away with the garbage long ago?" Kogoro Mouri guessed.

"If you have trash, Xiaolan and I will help you take it out and throw it out." Yuanzi said: "And at that time, Mr. Gaoli was asked to drive it out and throw it out."

"Mr. Takari said he would take the trash back and throw it away." Mori Ran nodded.

When Kogoro Mouri heard this, he touched his chin and said confidently: "So, the backup key should be in the garbage."

Officer Henggou was very capable of moving and immediately ordered the police officers under his command to go over the garbage.

Chen Xing looked at Yuanzi, "Who else asked you to do anything?"

Amuro was stunned and nodded secretly.

Yuanzi said, "Is it counting to make lunch?"

Chen Xing glanced at her, "What do you think?"

Seeing this, Amuro couldn't help but think that the only one who could make this guy helpless was probably the only one who could make him Miss Suzuki.

Ran Mori said: "Miss Kotoin asked us to help put the sports drinks in the refrigerator."

"It seems that it's because she likes to drink frozen drinks." Yuanzi said.

"By the way, there was a little commotion here at that time." Mori Ran said as if he remembered something, "Mr. Shili was in the room, and Miss Kotoon happened to be holding the drink bottle. The drink had melted, so she wanted to put it in the refrigerator again."

Kogoro Mouri pondered: "She pretended to do this and then secretly put the key in."

"I didn't put any key in," Yuanzi said: "After I took the shower, she took out the bottle of drink from the refrigerator and distributed it to me. Almost all the drinks were frozen."

"She also said she would help us rewind the anti-slip tape on the racket handle." Ran Mori said: "It was handed over to Miss Machi at that time, and she also changed our tennis racket to a new network cable."

"You have a lot of activities." Kogoro Mouri curled his lips.

After a while, the two police officers who went to flip through the garbage came back and said that they had not found anything like the key.

"Also, the sports drinks placed in the freezer are already very frozen and I think there is no way to put the key inside."

"Where is the racket part?" asked Officer Henggou.

"We have investigated the tennis rackets that everyone uses, and no keys are found," the police officer said. "But there are reports that there are several places where the tennis racket net cable placed under the body have been distorted."

"The network cable is twisted? Why?" Officer Henggou asked immediately.

The police officer shook his head and then said, "Also, after comparison, the shape of the copper vase with blood attached is exactly the same as the wound on the head of the corpse. For some reason, it seems that there is water inside the vase."

"Is there water?" The Henggou police officer asked in confusion: "Why is there water inside the murder weapon?"

"Then the estimated death time of the corpse should be two or three hours before the body was found. If it was determined based on the room temperature at that time, there might be a drop of about thirty minutes."

After listening to the police report, Toru Amuro thought, "Although the boss and I went to play tennis and missed the lunch time, it was about three hours before the body was found. Generally speaking, those three people had the chance to start."

"Boss?" Officer Henggou found that he was completely curious about the baby in front of this group of people.

"It's him." Amuro pointed at the next to Chen Xing.

Kogoro Mouri looked at Conan, "I said, have you seen a prisoner? Haven't you been in the room all the time?"

"I slept very well at that time." Conan said embarrassedly.

Ran Maori leaned over and said, "Don't you remember that I and Yuanzi once held cold noodles and called you in front of your sleeping room?"

"I think I was still sleeping at that time." Conan scratched his head.

"Wait, I remember Xiaolan said that the air conditioning in the room was very cold." Yuanzi said curiously: "We were all outside the door at that time. How did you know that the air conditioning in the room was very cold?"

"Because I felt the air conditioner blowing out on my toes at that time." Mori Ran chuckled: "I think it should be the air conditioner in the room, which blows out from the gap below the door."

"I remember Miss Zhenzhi said it too," Chen Xing said.

When Umejima Machi was interviewed, he also said that he felt the air conditioning in the room.

Conan immediately remembered this incident, and after a moment of thinking, a smile appeared on his face that clearly understood everything.
