Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 664: The criminal method is: this, that, that, that, that…

After confirming that Su Fang Hongzi was dead, they immediately chose to call the police.

Except for Lie and his friends who stayed at the scene, everyone else was invited to the restaurant and waited for the police to come for questioning.

Lie stood beside the bed and looked at the layout of the room.

The deceased's room was a 6m*6m square bedroom with the main door located on the side of the bed. Opposite the bed was a nailed shut door with a partition window, which ruled out the possibility that the murderer came in from the opposite side.

After a rough look, Lie had an idea in his mind.

He looked at the mask with blood on its mouth that had fallen on Sufang Hongzi's body, put on gloves, picked it up and took a look.

Gradually, Lie's face began to look a little strange:
The energy that covered his mask would be partially neutralized from time to time...

Damn, this mask is really cursed? ?
"...Tsk~ This death is not unjust."

Lie muttered softly.

Next to him, Conan, who had very sharp ears, heard this and his eyes narrowed.

Could it be that Mr. Lin has discovered some key point that he has missed?
"Mr. Lin, have you discovered anything new?" Conan gently tugged at the corner of Lie's clothes.

Lie is good in every way, except that she always hides things from him... oh, and she also likes to scare him.

I have become so suspicious now, it must be Lie's fault!

strong:"……?"

Noticing that Conan's tone sounded somewhat resentful when he asked the question, Lie was confused for a long time.

Seeing Conan looking a little aggrieved, Lie couldn't help but pat him on the head twice, and said with a smile: "It's nothing~ I just found that there are really some curses on these masks~ Um...

I guess even if no one kills her, she might be tortured to death by the curse later~"

I just don't know what the manifestation of this curse will look like...

Well, I’ll email it to Xiaohong for research after the case is over!

Lie has already decided on the next owners for these poor masks.

Conan: "..."

Well, he shouldn't have counted on Mr. Lin.

Conan sighed, looked at the mess in the room, and began to analyze with difficulty: "The rooms on the east and west sides are completely isolated, and the only mask room connecting the two sides is locked. If you want to open it, you must use the key from both sides to open the door..."

"And then~?" Lie squatted in the corner with his cheek in his hand, standing side by side with Conan.

"Just now when Sister Xiaolan went to call Miss Honami, I checked the door. It was locked from the inside and there was no sign of it being opened." Conan looked at Lie, "That is to say, the criminal should have been on the west side from the beginning, Mr. Katagiri, Mr. Matsudaira, Miss Nagara, Miss Minaho, and Ms. Sofang's secretary Inaba Kazuyo."

Lie blinked, "Are you sure? Conan~why don't you think about it carefully?"

"……What?"

Conan speechlessly resisted the hand that was trying to grab his head, "Sure enough, Mr. Lin, you know who the murderer is now!"

This is not the first or second time that Rei has been able to identify the murderer in seconds. Although sometimes he would make mistakes like Maori Kogoro, most of the time, as long as Rei is at the crime scene, he can basically identify the criminal at once.

Often there is no evidence.

Such as now.

"I know." Lie smiled and stretched out his hand, "It's the one who lives on the first floor on the east side~"

"Mr. Aichuan?!" Conan narrowed his eyes, "Where's the evidence?"

Lie spread his hands and said, "Not yet. I'm also wondering how he did it."

Conan frowned, "But Mr. Lin, when the crime happened, Mr. Aikawa was in the room on the east side. How could he pass through this wall to kill Ms. Sufang?"

Conan pointed to the door that was completely nailed shut.

"No need to come through~" Lie raised his head and pointed to the air vent separated by wooden strips, "He killed Sister Su Fang in the room opposite, and he didn't even come into this room~"

Conan was stunned.

"You mean, the murderer didn't even enter this room?" "Yeah~ And the tools used to commit the crime, such as gloves and so on, might still be there... Well~ But they may have been disposed of now, right?"

Lie shrugged, not really caring about the evidence.

And Conan is still struggling: "Not only this room...how did the criminal do it?"

Air vent... If we use this thing, we can really stuff the mask and knife through the gap...

But the prisoner’s arms and body can’t become as narrow as the mask, right?
"Actually~I can do part of it." Lie rubbed his chin.

Conan turned to him in surprise.

Lie stared at the mask on the ground and the dagger stuck in Sufang Hongzi's neck, and said to himself: "Standing at the door opposite, as long as you are high enough, you can hold the dagger and pass through the air vent... It takes a little effort to bounce the knife into the victim's neck, and then throw the mask in...

But this way, the mask won't get splattered with blood~?"

Lie scratched his head, feeling that he had fallen into a misconception again.

In fact, he could also catch the murderer and force him to tell how he did it...but the reasoning is really interesting.

After waiting for a while, Lie found that Conan, who was keen on analyzing the case just now, suddenly became silent.

Look down.

Good guy.

Conan is now like a possessed man, with the corners of his mouth raised wantonly, his glasses reflecting blue light, and he has the aura of a true villain...

Lie immediately took a breath of cold air, stretched out his hand without hesitation, and lifted up the Great Devil Conan:
"Yeah~ Fly high!"

Conan: "???"

Mr. Lin, please be normal. I'm so scared.

"I know the murderer's method." After landing successfully, Conan's first words were so explosive, "But I have no evidence."

Lie's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Conan was stunned for a moment: "What? Which sentence?"

"it is good!"

Lie responded without any context, strode over to Maori Kogoro who was still investigating the scene, patted him on the shoulder, and said happily: "Mr. Maori, I already know the criminal and his method! Can you please help me call the others to... uh, to the next room? I think we can solve this case before the police get here!"

Mouri Kogoro: "...0-0?"

Were they solving the same case? How did they solve it when they didn't even find any clues?
Conan: "..."

For some reason, he always felt that what Mr. Lin said sounded familiar.

In fact, Rei was imitating the usual words Conan used every time after he knocked Kogoro Maori unconscious.

According to the various information eavesdropped on from Noah, the success rate of this rhetoric is 100% - as long as you call people and say that the method of committing the crime is already known, then no matter what the people involved in the case are doing, they will all show up.

After Maori Kogoro and Xiaolan went to call for help, Lie picked up Conan eagerly:
"Hey, can you tell me what the technique is? And what props are used?"

"... So Mr. Lin, you plan to restore it yourself without even knowing what to prepare?" Conan complained speechlessly, "It will take about eight meters of elastic band, a knife, and..."

Conan pointed to the ground.

"And these two hundred masks."

Lie: "0w0~,"

Oh~ Then it seems he has to be a temporary porter again?

and……

"Where can I find an elastic band that long?"

"…Then don't agree to this so quickly! Wouldn't it be better to wait for the police to arrive and then reconstruct the method?"

Man is iron, and food is steel;
Conan is very disappointed with his friend.
