Chapter 25 You are late(1/2)
"This is the modus operandi of Ishikawa and the others."
After describing the murderer’s plot, Kudo Shinichi finally concluded:
"It's just that I still lack key evidence, so I have to go back to the alley and search carefully."
He said this, but his expression didn't look very nervous:
The modus operandi has been thoroughly revealed, and the evidence should not be difficult to find.
At this point, the case has been solved by 90%.
In contrast...
Lin Xinyi should be slower than himself.
After all, the ability he showed before was only for examining corpses, so it would be difficult to see through the murderer's plot to get out of guilt by taking advantage of the environment, right?
"This time..."
After thinking about it, Kudo Shinto suddenly gained confidence:
"It should be me who wins."
Just like that, Ishikawa led the way, and Kudo followed him out of the department store in high spirits.
Kudo now feels very stable:
He believed that his detective skills would have an advantage over Lin Xinyi's forensic skills in this case.
Ishikawa also feels that he is very stable now:
Even the great detective Kudo Shinichi personally confirmed that this case was a simple suicide. The incompetent Tokyo Metropolitan Police must have been unable to do anything about him as the murderer.
In this way, with similar confidence, the murderer and the detective returned to the alley next to the department store one after another.
At this time, within about ten minutes of Kudo and the others going to investigate, the Tokyo police, who responded quickly, had arrived at the scene in time.
Several police cars were parked on the road, and there were several uniformed police officers on the sidewalk maintaining order.
The entrance of the uninhabited alley has been isolated by an emergency blockade. There are people outside the blockade, and it is full of onlookers attracted by the case.
"Give way."
Kudo Shinichi hurriedly squeezed to the blockade.
Ishikawa and Mao Lilan also returned to the scene.
The police maintaining the blockade were trying to stop the three of them, but as the savior of the Japanese police, Kudo Shinichi's face was the best pass.
Kudo Shinichi walked into the blockade and looked at the police officer leading the team:
Sure enough, he is still an old friend who has been working with him for a long time:
"Megure Police Department!"
Kudo Shinichi greeted warmly.
When the police arrived, he could just use the power of the forensics department to carefully search the scene and help him find the key evidence that would fill in the last piece.
In this way, he can achieve real victory in this smoke-free reasoning competition.
"Brother Kudo."
"Are you here too?"
The Mumu Police Department was slightly surprised, but then breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief:
"No wonder I met Mr. Lin Xinyi twice at the crime scene today."
"It turns out it's not his fault..."
"If Brother Kudo is here, everything will make sense."
One god of death is enough.
If Lin Xinyi, like Kudo, kills people wherever he goes, the pressure on the Metropolitan Police Department will be even greater.
As an older middle-aged man, the Mumu Police Department still believes in this kind of metaphysics.
"Ha ha..."
Kudo Shinichi automatically ignored Megure Police Department’s complaints.
Detectives are always attracted to cases...it's normal to be misunderstood.
He smiled and said straight to the point:
"Memu Police Department, I have some ideas about this case."
"Forehead..."
The expression on the police officer's face suddenly became a little subtle.
"What?" Kudo Shinichi keenly read the expression on the Megure Police Department: "What happened to this case?"
"Nothing happened, it's just..."
It seemed that this was the first time Megure Police Department had said this to Kudo, and his tone was very tactful:
"You came a little late..."
"The suspects have all confessed."
As he spoke, Officer Memu pointed behind him:
Sure enough, Aoki, who had just been left in the alley, was surrounded by several strong police officers.
His hands were handcuffed, and when he was being escorted to the police car by the police, he could not help crying:
"Man, man was killed by Ishikawa!"
"We are just accomplices... We are just accomplices... You must understand this!"
Kudo Shinichi: "..."
I've been away for ten minutes, and yet I haven't even found the key evidence, and the suspects actually confessed?
Did Lin Xinyi do this?
How could this happen...What method did he use?
Thinking of this, the great detective Kudo's competitive spirit was instantly pierced.
Beside him, Ishikawa's expression was even more exciting:
"Qing, Qingmu... what are you talking about?"
"I...when did I kill someone...you are crazy and don't involve me!"
Seeing Aoki exposing the truth in front of the police without any hesitation, Ishikawa was completely stunned:
The trick I devised even fooled a famous detective!
As a result, my accomplice reported me behind my back?
Are you worthy of my brain cells!
"asshole!"
"Shut up!"
He yelled at Aoki hysterically, but this attracted the attention of the police:
"Oh? Are you that Ishikawa?"
The police officers all looked over maliciously.
Ishikawa, on the other hand, shrank his head nervously, and finally yelled bravely:
"So what?"
"There's something wrong with Aoki's brain...Does it mean what he says?"
"I think you should send him to a mental hospital as soon as possible!"
"If you want to say I'm the murderer... you have to produce evidence!"
"yes."
"Memu Police Department, what exactly is the evidence?"
As never before, Kudo Shinichi gave criminals a helping hand.
Because he also seemed to know what clues Lin Xinyi used to discover the truth, and what evidence he used to make Aoki confess his crime obediently.
It couldn't be a random scam taking advantage of Aoki's fragile psychology, right?
That would be too untechnical.
"Um...this..."
The Mumu Police Department said very calmly:
"We don't know this either, because we have just arrived at the scene."
To be continued...
