In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 118 Sure enough, I didn’t kill anyone (44)

*bite*
The crisp system mechanical sound rang in Akikawa Sosuke's mind.

At the same time, a deep blue translucent system interface appeared in front of Akikawa Sosuke.

[The locked screening room, the evidence of crimes listed one by one, facing the accusations of the unscrupulous black policeman Toda Kyoushi, what choice will you make? ]

[1. Confess your guilt]

[Reward: Agility +3, Skill Card x1]

【2. Refusal to admit】

[Reward: Temporary Feature Card x1, Specific Card x1]

【3. Turning Toda Kyoushi into a criminal】

[Reward: Physical Fitness +3, Recovery Card x1]

[4. Kill Toda Kyoushi]

[Reward: Constitution +5, Temporary Skill Card x1]

Akikawa Sosuke was not surprised by the sudden system prompt.

"As expected, my guess was correct."

Akikawa Sosuke thought to himself as he looked at Toda Kyoushi who was smiling as a winner across from him.

Sure enough, the facts were almost the same as what I guessed yesterday.

As expected, Kyoushi Toda learned the truth from Koichi Nishihara and Takao Ohkawa.

"Nishihara Koichi has been completely removed from the line because of the assault on the police, and the film festival case must be the result of Toda Kyoji's inducement of Ohkawa Takao to confess."

"Since an attack on a police officer could occur in the Metropolitan Police Department, it is highly likely that Toda Kyouji deliberately provoked the other party to attack him."

"That Ohkawa Takao doesn't look like he's going to tell the truth."

"So, there is a high probability that Takao Ohkawa will have the same fate as Koichi Nishihara."

Akikawa Sosuke was not worried at all about his secret being exposed.

On the contrary, after guessing what Kyoji Toda had done to Koichi Nishihara and Takao Ohkawa, he felt that things were a lot easier.

after all--

"Having been induced to confess by Toda Kyoushi, Nishihara Koichi and Ohkawa Takao have definitely lost the possibility of further exposing me."

"Then, if I can make Toda Kyouji shut up, the two cases I have dealt with will be completely buried."

Akikawa Sosuke made a judgment in his heart.

However, what surprised Akikawa Sosuke was a little bit.

The car accident case was also brought up by this Toda Kyoji.

Akikawa Sosuke actually knew very little about the car accident.

Most of the information he provided when he confessed was inadvertently leaked to him by a detective named Takuto Nakajima, which enabled him to evade responsibility.

But when Akikawa Sosuke found the three life insurance policies with his own life as the insured from the original owner's home, he knew it.

The whole case has been overturned.

After comparing the handwriting, Akikawa Sosuke confirmed one thing, that is, the sleeping pills must have been swallowed by the original owner himself.

However, Akikawa Sosuke had too little information.

So he has not been able to figure out the full picture of the car accident until now.

"Originally, I had no interest in the original owner and his mother's affairs."

"However, since Toda Kyoushi brought up the car accident case at this time, perhaps we can get some more information from him that only the police know."

"Luckily, this guy seems to have a good head."

For Akikawa Sosuke, a smart person is always much easier to control than a fool.

Because smart people always believe what they see and judge.

Just like when a person is shocked, the pupils will dilate and the muscles will contract, which is a physiological reaction.

For detectives and criminal police who have keen observation skills.

Micro-expressions are equivalent to writing what the other person is thinking at the moment on their face.

"Kyoji Toda must have known that I'm a good actor."

'Perhaps he could have guessed that I could easily control muscle contractions and fake facial micro-expressions.'

'But he would never have thought that I could even control physiological reactions such as pupil contraction and dilation.'

'After all, for most people, pupil dilation, a physiological reaction caused by the activation of the sympathetic nervous system, cannot be controlled at all.'

After years of training, it may be possible to control muscle contractions so that facial micro-expressions can be indistinguishable from real ones.

However, the physiological response produced by the activation of the sympathetic nervous system cannot be achieved through general training.

Because this requires the ability to accurately control one's inner emotions.

Emotions such as sexual desire, shock, fear, excitement, and love will activate the sympathetic system, causing the pupil to dilate.

"Now, Toda Kyoushi thinks he is in the driver's seat."

'He thought that his sudden appearance had given me a great shock, and that I felt shaken when he listed my crimes one by one.'

"Then, we should 'pursue victory'."

Once you think you have the advantage, you will become complacent and easily reveal your flaws.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean."

Although Akikawa Sosuke knew that he had been exposed by Toda Kyoushi, he still maintained his childish look of fear.

"Haha."

"Do you think you handled the last two cases perfectly and I have no way to deal with you?"

Toda Kyoushi laughed out loud, then walked slowly and steadily to the side of Akikawa Sorasuke.

Akikawa Sosuke retreated backwards as if he was a little scared.

But he stopped because his body bumped into a seat in the theater. "Hasn't the cases already been concluded?"

“I don’t even know what you are talking about.”

Akikawa Sosuke avoided eye contact with Toda Kyoushi as he spoke in a low voice.

"As expected, you are taking advantage of the lack of physical evidence to feel fearless."

"Stop pretending to be a child. It's boring me. Isn't it time to show me your true colors?"

Toda Kyoushi said in Akikawa Sosuke's ear.

Once again, Akikawa Sosuke showed a slightly stiff expression because of Toda Kyoji's remarks, and then he still responded to Toda Kyoji with a confused and stunned look.

pity.

Just relying on Toda Kyoushi's mouth, he can't become a criminal.

Besides, we are still outside, not inside the Metropolitan Police Department.

Therefore, Akikawa Sosuke concluded that Toda Kyoushi would not dare to force a confession here.

Then he only had two options left.

One is to induce a confession.

Another is fabricating evidence.

"The final conclusion? The last two cases may have been concluded, but the car accident case has not yet been concluded."

"After all, the real culprit is here, not the guy wearing a motorcycle helmet that can be seen everywhere on the national highway."

Toda Kyoushi said.

"You were able to deceive the criminal police and detectives at that time mainly because of your acting skills."

"You successfully deceived everyone into thinking that you were a child mentally, which fundamentally denied your motive and the possibility of committing the crime."

"But I know that you are not a child, but a criminal who has mastered sophisticated criminal skills."

"You carefully planned the murder of your mother and then framed it on a non-existent third party."

"No, no, no. The detectives had already ruled out that possibility at the time."

Akikawa Sosuke denied it repeatedly in a panic.

"Besides, aren't there any of my fingerprints on the murder weapon?"

"Besides, my hand was broken at that time, so I had no conditions to commit the crime!"

"Plus, I was lucky enough to survive because someone fed me a lot of sleeping pills. If I wanted to frame someone else for the insurance money, then why did I take sleeping pills?"

Akikawa Sosuke used the same reason he used to refute the detectives to refute Toda Kyoushi.

In this case, the biggest bug is that he "came back to life".

The fact that he survived the overdose of sleeping pills fundamentally eliminated the possibility of him committing insurance fraud.

"Wow, you're speaking fluently now. What's wrong? Are you not going to act like a child anymore?"

Toda Kyoushi laughed.

He discovered that Akikawa Sosuke was eager to prove his innocence.

I even forgot to continue pretending.

'He is afraid, afraid of the truth about the car accident.'

'Sure enough, he is the murderer.'

Toda Kyoushi thought to himself and took out an evidence bag from his clothes.

After seeing what was in the evidence bag, Akikawa Sosuke's eyes widened for a moment.

Because what was contained inside was the dagger that killed Akikawa Ryoko in the car accident.

"When this thing was doing the Luminol reaction, it showed that the entire handle of the dagger was covered in blood."

"That is, your fingerprints have been covered."

"Maybe everyone thought at the time that you were just a kid and couldn't do such a thing."

"But now it seems to me that it's too easy for you to erase fingerprints."

"As for your second point, you said your hand was broken."

"From what I have heard from Koichi Nishihara, I can tell that you are a person who has no regard for your body and is willing to hurt yourself in order to achieve your goals."

"In that case, it's easy to understand why your hand was broken."

"You broke your own hand. Because the time interval was too short, there is no way to tell whether your right hand fracture was before or after your mother's death."

Toda Kyoushi looked at Akikawa Sosuke's increasingly paler face and put the evidence bag containing the dagger aside.

Another document was taken out.

"Indeed, the concentration of triazolam in your body was found to be excessive, so it was determined that you had taken an overdose of sleeping pills."

"Also, judging from the concentration of triazolam detected in your body, you took the sleeping pills after killing your mother."

"But this only means that you may not be planning to defraud insurance, but it cannot deny the fact that you killed your mother."

As Toda Kyousuke spoke, he also showed Akikawa Sorasuke the hospital's physical examination report on Akikawa Sorasuke at that time.

After staring at the report for a long while, Akikawa Sosuke finally looked away.

This Kyoji Toda really gave me a big surprise today.

'It turns out that what was detected in my body was triazolam.'

At this moment, the doubts in Akikawa Sosuke's heart finally became clear, as if the clouds had been cleared and the sun had come out.

At the same time, the things that Akikawa Sosuke had been worried about finally disappeared at this moment.

'It is amazing that detectives can make mistakes when faced with such obvious facts.'

"It turns out that I really didn't kill anyone."
