The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 46: Choose 1 from 3


Jiang Xia walked into the side room and looked at the murder scene.

Across the door, a corpse holding a samurai sword was nailed to the wall by another long sword through his chest.

Looks like there's been a vicious fight here - there are knife marks all over the walls, even the ceiling. The surroundings were also shattered.

The deceased is the head of the family here, Marudenjiro.

A while ago, he suspected that his wife was cheating, so he asked Kogoro Mouri to investigate.

Today, Kogoro Mouri found out the results and came over to deliver.

During the conversation between the two, there are other guests visiting. Marudenjiro left Mouri Kogoro and went to the side room to receive other guests first.

Mouri Kogoro waited for a long time, but Mardenjiro didn't come back.

When he saw his client again, Mardenjiro was already a corpse.

After calling the police, the police did not do anything.

——When Jiang Xia came, the suspects had already been found, no more, no less, exactly three.

One of them is Mrs. Maru's lover and family doctor. The other two were people who had borrowed money from Marudenjiro, one was a sculptor and the other was a kendo instructor.

Jiang Xia glanced at him, and his eyes stopped on the corpse's leg.

——A shikigami.

Jiang Xia's expression softened a lot.

Then he decided to drop the shikigami earlier, pick it up and go home earlier.

Jiang Xia looked at the kendo coach among the suspects: "You are the murderer."

He didn't pay much attention to his wording, after all, in this world of detectives, you can't be accused of defamation if you point out the wrong killer.

...mostly murdered by the framed, or by their relatives and friends.

When the Mumu Police Department heard Jiang Xia's conclusion, there was a shudder in their hearts.

——A few minutes ago, Mouri Kogoro just said the same thing as Jiang Xia.

Mouri Kogoro felt that a person who could compete with a kendo master like Marudenjiro could only be another kendo master, Suwa.

However, under the reminder of a certain child, they discovered some wrong details one after another, and believed that the murderer was not Suwa, but someone deliberately framed it.

What happened to Jiang Xia brother today?

"That..." Mumu police department hesitated to look at his new and old brother, and then looked at the strong sun outside, and began to think for no reason in his mind, "Will the possessed souls be destroyed by the sun?" sunburn".

Mao Lilan came over and reminded Jiang Xia in a low voice:

"The deceased held the knife in the wrong position, usually with his hand in front, but he obviously held it backwards."

"That's right." Mouri Kogoro said calmly, "This way of holding the knife, and the marks of the fight, at first glance, it looks like a layman's actions-the ceiling is covered with knife marks, who would fight like that place?"

Conan gave Mouri Kogoro a faint glance. This is clearly his line. And when he said it just now, he was knocked on the head by Mouri Kogoro, but now, Mouri Kogoro actually used it himself...tui! Uncle Double.

Jiang Xia squatted down, pretended to check the body, secretly reached out and grabbed the shikigami on Yumaru Denjiro's leg, and said casually, "Those are using our reverse thinking."

Shikigami was a little afraid of him, and slowly shrank in a circle.

But still stubbornly holding the corpse, refusing to come down.

Jiang Xia regretfully let go.

He stood up and glanced back at the messy room: "To be able to carve so many knife marks shows that the murderer has a lot of time to set up the scene. Even if he is not familiar with kendo, he can know how to hold it more smoothly even if he is not familiar with kendo. , will not be reversed."

Conan heard half of it and understood Jiang Xia's meaning: "You mean to say that the murderer arranged this so that we can come to the conclusion that the scene was deliberately arranged like this by a layman, and then exclude the layman first? "

And among the three suspects, only one is a kendo master... Could it really be Suwa?

Uncle Maori guessed right as soon as he came up!

Conan was taken aback by this fact, but soon turned back to a dead fisheye with disdain.

After all, there are only three suspects here.

With a one-third probability, catch some cats to choose, and one of the three can only guess correctly.

The Mumu Police Department also breathed a sigh of relief. Brother Jiang Xia's logic was still online.

But...

He touched his chin thoughtfully, feeling that the reasoning was not rigorous enough:

"However, it is also possible that some layman knew that Mr. Suwa would be here today~IndoMTL.com~, so he deliberately made the murder scene exaggerated, so that when we saw these traces, we thought it was Suwa. Mr. pretended to be a scene laid out by a layman, but in fact it was a scene laid out by a layman because it was too layman to be easily thought to be a layman's scene deliberately set up by an expert."

Jiang Xia: "..." He barely understood what the Mumu Police Department was saying.

But if it goes on like this, it will only be endless.

So Jiang Xia silently turned to the beginning, pretended not to hear, and continued to say his own:

"The deceased bled a lot. When the murderer poses for him, some will inevitably get on his body, hands or soles. You can try to test it on Mr. Suwa. If not, look for discarded clothes along the way. .

"In addition, there is one more point..."

Jiang Xia walked to the wall, where there was a standing cabinet consisting of many drawers.

Compared with other places, the damage to the cabinet is even worse, and the knife marks on it are dense and messy.

If you look closely, you can see that there are actually two types of scratches on the cabinet. One is very deep, like it was deliberately carved, and there are weird breaks at the beginning and end. The other is consistent with the knife marks elsewhere.

This means that the order of these drawers has been deliberately disrupted.

——The deceased had carved words on the cabinet. After the murderer found it, he disrupted the order of the drawers. Then, in order to cover up the nicks, he simply arranged the whole house as if it had been slashed by random knives.

Jiang Xia's gaze followed the break.

Then he put on gloves, took out a few drawers, and rearranged them.

Soon, as the drawer returned to its original state, the knife marks on it recovered, forming two pseudonyms "すわ".

——It is the pronunciation of "Suwa".
