Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 215 If You Cheat Me, I Will Attack Your Birthplace

More than an hour later, Inspector Megure hurried back and carefully placed a bag on the table. "Lin Jun, we found three cone molds in total. Two were found in the refrigerator with ice cubes still frozen inside, and there was an empty one in the kitchen."

Lin Xiuyi nodded slightly, picked up one of the heavy molds and opened it. A lot of the frozen ice inside had melted, leaving only an incomplete cone.

Seeing this, Inspector Megure couldn't help but ask, "Lin Jun, what are these ice cubes used for? Is they related to the case?"

Lin Xiuyi put down the mold and said with certainty: "The cone-shaped ice cubes in these molds are actually the murder weapons."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Lin Xiuyi, waiting for his explanation.

Lin Xiuyi cleared his throat and said, "The reason why the deceased's wounds were separated was because the murderer used a sharp ice pick to pierce the deceased to death."

"Because the temperature of the ice cone is extremely low, the tissue around the wound cools rapidly the moment it enters the deceased's body."

"After the murder, the killer used hot water to melt the ice pick, thus destroying the murder weapon."

"In this way, the wound is first frozen and then heated by hot water. The alternating hot and cold causes the tissue to become layered."

Inspector Megure suddenly realized something, then frowned again: "But Lin-kun, the ice cones melt easily. Ota Yuka's home is half an hour away from here."

"If she had brought the ice pick here, it would have melted a lot. How did she manage to bring the murder weapon here intact?"

Lin Xiuyi smiled slightly and picked up the sports thermos beside him: "This is the answer."

"Ota Yuuka hid the ice pick in this sports thermos. This thermos has a very good heat preservation effect, which can slow down the melting speed of the ice pick for a certain period of time, so she was able to bring the ice pick here to commit the crime."

"Just now I put my hand in and the temperature inside the thermos was very low. That's the evidence."

Yuuka Ota sat on the sofa. Her already pale face looked even more bloodless. Her hands were clenched into fists and her body was trembling slightly.

Lin Xiuyi sighed and walked up to Ota Yuka: "Ms. Ota, the evidence is conclusive, do you have anything else to say?"

Ota Yuuka raised her head, her face full of hatred. She took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth: "Yes, I killed Nakajima Ryosuke! But that bastard, he deserves to die!"

With Ota Yuuka's narration, everyone gradually understood the whole story.

Ryosuke Nakajima and Yuka Ota were once a sweet couple who spent many wonderful times together.

But as time went by, the passion between the couple faded and they began to quarrel.

Three months ago, Yuka Ota met a funny and humorous man at a party.

Under the influence of alcohol, she impulsively betrayed Ryosuke Nakajima.

Afterwards, although Yuuka Ota felt guilty, she never confessed to Ryosuke Nakajima.

But the truth could not be hidden, and Nakajima Ryosuke discovered that Ota Yuka had cheated on him. He was furious and after a big fight with his girlfriend, he proposed to break up and emotionally said he wanted revenge.

Yuuka Ota did not take Ryosuke Nakajima's threat seriously, thinking that he was just saying it in anger.

But it wasn't long before Ota Yuka noticed something was wrong. She discovered her mother had a new boyfriend, and out of curiosity, she began to observe him secretly.

But what she never expected was that her mother's new boyfriend was actually Ryosuke Nakajima.

When she saw the two of them behaving intimately and going out together, Yuka Ota felt dizzy.

She could accept that her ex-boyfriend had a new girlfriend, but she couldn't accept that the woman was actually her biological mother!
"Haha, that's when I finally understood what he meant by revenge," Ota Yuuka laughed nervously, her laughter filled with pain and despair, "Just because I betrayed him, he actually wanted to be my stepfather!"

After that day, Yuuka Ota began planning to kill Ryosuke Nakajima.

In order to frame her mother for the murder, Yuuka Ota decided to do it in Mrs. Ota's apartment. She made ice cones with three molds in advance and hid them in the refrigerator.

This afternoon, after learning that Ryosuke Nakajima had come to his mother's apartment again, Yuka Ota put the sharpest ice pick in a sports thermos and brought it to the apartment.

Ryosuke Nakajima was taking a shower in the bathroom at the time, and the sound of running water in the bathroom covered up the footsteps of Yuka Ota.

While he was not paying attention, Yuuka Ota stabbed him in the neck with an ice pick, killing Ryosuke Nakajima, and then melted the ice pick with hot water, destroying the murder weapon.

Mrs. Ota sat by and listened, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Yuuka, it's mom who's sorry for you."

"But I really didn't know he was your boyfriend at first!"

"You didn't bring him home when you were dating. I've lived alone for so many years. After your father passed away, I've been lonely."

"A month ago, Nakajima Ryosuke suddenly appeared and started pursuing me. I couldn't resist and agreed to him."

Ota Yuuka sneered, her eyes full of mockery and resentment: "Stop pretending to be wronged. How many times have I argued with you about this? I asked you to separate from him, but you always ignored me."

"Do you know how painful I was at that time? The two people I loved, one was my mother and the other was my boyfriend, and you actually teamed up to betray me!"

Mrs. Ota burst into tears and kept repeating "I'm sorry".

Her heart was filled with regret. She regretted her weakness and selfishness in not resisting Ryosuke Nakajima's pursuit, and she did not have the heart to sever ties with him after learning the truth.

Mrs. Ota choked up and said, "Yuuka, I know I was wrong. I was confused for a moment and was deceived by him."

"Later, when I found out he was your boyfriend, I was torn and wanted to break up, but in the end I couldn't make up my mind..."

Ota Yuka listened to her mother's explanation, but the resentment in her heart did not diminish. She said bitterly, "That's why I decided to kill him. I planned all this to frame you. But I didn't expect that you would not refute it, but directly admit that you were the murderer."

Mrs. Ota raised her head, her eyes filled with pain and helplessness: "Yuuka, when I saw that Nakajima Ryosuke was dead, I immediately knew that the murderer was you. At that time, I was shocked and regretful."

"I know this is all my fault. I'm sorry for you."

"I didn't want you to ruin your life because of this incident, so I decided to admit that I killed him. I wanted to protect you..."
