In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 128 Ms. Sera, You Have Been Tricked by Akikawa (34)

Megure Jusan sent detectives from the Forensic Division to extract fingerprints from the dagger and other items left at the scene.

At the same time, Takagi Wataru woke up Toda Kyoushi.

Toda Kyouji slowly opened his eyes.

After seeing the Metropolitan Police Department detectives and his boss Megure Juzo in the screening room, he instantly came to his senses.

"Brother Toda, sister Sera said that you attacked Akikawa Sosuke. Can you tell me what happened?"

Megure Juzo looked at Toda Kyoushi and asked.

"She's talking bullshit!"

Upon hearing this, Toda Kyoushi hurriedly spoke loudly.

"It was Akikawa Sosuke who wanted to commit suicide, I just wanted to stop him!"

"Then he took advantage of my inattention, loosened his grip on the dagger, and took the initiative to step back, creating the illusion that I had pulled the dagger out of his neck!"

"I never thought of killing him. That guy framed me!"

"Then why did Akikawa commit suicide?" asked Megure Jusan.

"He must have seen me investigating his previous car accident and felt guilty, so he wanted to frame me."

Masumi Sera looked coldly at Toda Kyoji who was making excuses, and then said:

"But I heard that Officer Toda asked about Akikawa's schedule yesterday, and you were the one who brought Akikawa to this unopened exhibition hall?"

Sera Masumi's question made Toda Kyoushi stunned for a moment.

"She already knew that I asked Akikawa Sosuke about my schedule yesterday?"

"That is to say, Akikawa Sosuke told me what I interrogated him about yesterday."

Kyoushi Toda made a judgment based on what Masumi Sera said.

There was a camera recording when he was taking Akikawa Sosuke's statement yesterday.

Therefore, as long as we confirm the video, we can know that it really happened.

'However, even if this is the case, it only proves that I know his schedule today, and it does not prove anything.'

"Akikawa Sosuke and the detective will never guess my backup plan."

"By the way, was it a coincidence that this tomboy detective suddenly appeared in the theater, or did Akikawa Sosuke foresee this?"

Toda Kyoushi couldn't help but start thinking.

But he quickly ruled out this possibility.

After all, this exhibition hall was the one that I brought Akikawa Sousuke to, and it was not a place chosen by Akikawa Sousuke.

So it must be just a coincidence.

Toda Kyoji looked at Sera Masumi coldly and asked:

"So, what does this prove? I just wanted to ask Akikawa about the car accident, so I brought him here. What does this prove?"

Upon hearing this, Megure Jusan looked at Sera Masumi, waiting for Sera Masumi's explanation.

What Masumi Sera has said so far can only prove that Kyoji Toda is curious about the car accident, but it cannot prove that he really killed Akikawa Sosuke.

"I believe that Akikawa Sosuke did not commit suicide but was deliberately attacked by Officer Toda, and this is certainly not without basis."

As Sera Masumi said this, he took the phone from Conan.

And in Conan's cell phone, there was a rather bloody and hideous photo.

"Officer Megure, please look, this is the wound on Akikawa's neck."

Masumi Sera then told how he judged from the angle of Akikawa Sousuke's wound and the degree of muscle tearing at the upper and lower ends of the wound that Akikawa Sousuke could not have committed suicide.

After hearing this, Toda Kyoji suddenly realized.

No wonder Sera Masumi said she was lying after hearing Conan's description of Akikawa Sosuke's neck wound.

Because he said that Akikawa Sousuke was going to "commit suicide".

If it was suicide, the wound did not match the real situation. In addition, he also figured out why Akikawa Sosuke had such an awkward posture when he stabbed his own neck with the dagger.

It turned out that he was creating the illusion that he was attacking him.

After hearing what Sera Masumi said, Megure Juzo felt that it made sense, so he once again turned his attention to Toda Kyoji.

"Ah."

Toda Kyoushi sneered, the panic on his face no longer visible.

"Ms. Sera, I understand what you mean."

"You want to use the angle of Akikawa Sosuke's wound and the muscle tearing to prove that Akikawa Sosuke couldn't have committed suicide."

"But the evidence you mentioned can only prove that I was the most likely person to stab Qiu Chuan, but it can't prove that it was definitely not Qiu Chuan who did it, right?"

"The fact is, Akikawa deliberately stabbed himself at an unusual angle and in an unusual way, just to put the blame on me!"

Toda Kyoushi said loudly.

"Wait wait, Toda, Sera, what are you talking about? I don't understand!!"

As Megure Juzo listened to the conversation between Toda Kyoji and Sera Masumi, he felt that his brain was a little confused.

'idiot. ’

Toda Kyoji cursed in his heart, and then explained to Megure Jusan in a simple and easy-to-understand way:

"To put it simply, when a person commits suicide with a dagger, the most common and convenient way is to stab his own neck from bottom to top."

"Ms. Sera discovered that the angle of Akikawa's wound was tilted upwards, which means that the dagger stabbed into Akikawa's neck from above."

"This angle is very awkward for someone who wants to commit suicide, but it is normal for homicide."

"Yes."

Megure Juzo, including the detectives around him, all nodded.

This time I understood.

"Although this angle is very awkward for a suicidal person, it is not completely impossible."

"Because as long as you hold the dagger high, you can also stab your neck from top to bottom."

"But in this case, the dagger should have entered the neck upside down, because this is consistent with the posture of a suicide knife."

Upon hearing this, Megure Jusan imagined in his mind the scene of himself raising the dagger high, then sliding the dagger in an arc in the air and stabbing it towards his own neck.

Indeed, the dagger will stab into the neck in an "inverted state" with the main blade on top and the false blade on the bottom.

"And the wound on Akikawa's neck was not in an 'inverted state', but a 'normal state'. In other words, it does not conform to the knife-wielding habits of a suicide."

"Yes."

Megure Jusan nodded again.

He was a little confused as to why Kyoji Toda was explaining on behalf of Masumi Sera.

Doesn't this further prove that it was Toda Kyoushi who attacked Akikawa Sosuke?

"And what I want to say is that Akikawa anticipated your thoughts, Ms. Sera, so he deliberately stabbed himself in an 'unusual' way."

“Although the angle and method of cutting are awkward, it is not impossible.”

As Toda Kyoushi spoke, the corners of his blood-stained mouth curled up again.

"Ms. Sera, please don't rush to refute me."

"What I want to say is that you were deceived by that Qiuchuan."

"You think that Qiuchuan is just a childish kid who can't possibly do the above behavior I mentioned."

"But in reality, he is a super criminal genius and an extremely dangerous criminal."

"Akikawa's goal is to confuse Miss Sera's judgment, so as to put the blame on me and hide the fact that he killed his mother."
