Edogawa Conan’s Death Walker

“Brother Māori, is there any problem with the phone message?” Officer Twilight asked after listening to “Mori Kogoro”, he was now anxious to know who the murderer was.

“Don’t be impatient, Officer Twilight, listen to me.” Conan sorted out the wording a little and continued to reason…

“Mr. Suwa, Mr. Akuzu’s message was covered and washed out by your technique, and I naturally can’t prove that Mr. Akuzu left a message, but the answering machine can prove that someone tampered with the setting of the message, and of course, the fingerprints you left, such as on the audio tape. Of course, it is not ruled out that you have time to wipe off fingerprints, but if there are really no fingerprints, it can prove that someone has done it. ”

“So it is!” Officer Twilight’s eyes suddenly lit up, and with a hammer of his palm, he instructed the police officer of the Identification Division: “Quick! Check the fingerprints on the phone immediately, focusing on the tape of the answering machine! ”

Suwa Yuji’s face was slightly sweaty, and his expression opened up a little.

“Officer Twilight, please wait a minute! I’m not done yet! Conan stopped him.

“Huh? What’s wrong again? Officer Twilight was a little speechless, can’t this Maori brother finish speaking in one breath?

“The work of checking fingerprints will take some time, so let me continue to reason about Xia.”

“Mr. Suwa, let’s go back to the topic just now, you said before that you met Mr. Akuzu for the first time, and you also denied that you had heard Mr. Akuzu’s message, and you completely denied my reasoning, right?” Conan suddenly asked Yuji Suwa.

“That’s right, I didn’t do these things at all, this is completely your imagination, obviously I am the one who was almost framed!” Yuji Suwa looks like a bamboo in his chest.

“Hmph! I knew you would say that. Conan smiled coldly and said mockingly: “If so, then there is a problem, that is, my previous reasoning about Mr. Ajiujin’s criminal facts!” ”

“You also said that it was the first time to meet Mr. A Jiujin, and if my previous reasoning was true, then why would A Jiujin think of blaming you? He doesn’t know you, right? How can you think of this trick to blame you? ”

“That’s right, before today, I didn’t see Mr. Guo Suwa at all, and I didn’t know that he practiced kendo.” Ah Jiu Jin Makoto also quickly stood up and explained.

“This… He must have known it through my message, right! That’s right, it definitely is! Suwa Yuji’s face changed, but he was still forcibly defending.

“Suwa-san! You! “Makoto Akuzu was obviously angry with Yuji Suwa, and he was wrongfully murdered for no reason, where can he accept it, what kind of joke!

“I knew you would throw yourself into the net, Yuji Suwa!” Conan no longer addresses Yuji Suwa as Mr. Suwa, but by his first name.

“What did you say?” Suwa Yuji’s face was still in cold sweat, and he was actually very open in his heart at this time.

“Mr. Suwa, if, according to what you said, Mr. Akuzu heard your message after killing Mr. Marudenjiro, and thought of this technique in a hurry, then there is a problem here!”

“What’s the problem, Maori brother?” Officer Twilight couldn’t help but ask, he found that being a detective is this kind of problem, always talking halfway.

“That’s the time, we found out that Mr. Marudenjiro was killed around five o’clock, when the sun had already set, and Mr. Suwa’s message was at 4:41, which is very close to five o’clock, if Mr. Akuzu killed Mr. Suwa, the time he heard Mr. Suwa’s message should be 4:41, I ask you, does Mr. Akuzu really have enough time to arrange such a scene to blame others?”

Conan’s interlocking reasoning was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, hitting everyone’s hearts, and everyone instantly understood that this was a flaw in time!

Suwa Yuji also stood on the spot, unable to speak for a while, the shock and panic in his heart were beyond words, and he didn’t expect that the biggest flaw was here!

“Mr. Suwa, your plan is very bold, and it is indeed a hurry, but you have ignored this biggest flaw, that is, the time to leave a message, Mr. Akuzu simply does not have enough time to arrange this scene before we find out.” Conan said categorically!

“Sure enough, are you just blaming me!” A Jiujin was so angry that he was actually framed by someone for no reason?

“Hmph!” Suwa Yuji snorted calmly and said, “Mr. Mori, your reasoning is indeed wonderful and intertwined, but what evidence do you have to prove that I did it?” It’s also possible that Hatano did it, isn’t it? ”

Seeing that he was still dying, Conan couldn’t help but shake his head, so he decided to sacrifice the biggest killer weapon!

“Of course I have proof! And the evidence is in this room, that is, the death message left by Mr. Marudenjiro with his last breath, and it is also the irrefutable on-site evidence that you absolutely cannot refute! ”

“What!” , As soon as this remark came out, everyone including the police were stunned!

“Brother Māori, where is this death message you mentioned?” Officer Twilight hurriedly asked, this is too important!

“Officer Twilight, look at the cabinet standing by the wall, the knife marks on it, didn’t you find it? Those knife marks are very unnatural, and some of the wider knife marks are not coherent. Conan reminded Officer Twilight.

When Officer Twilight heard his words, he walked over, looked closely, and also found, “So it is, the knife marks are indeed incoherent, is this the death message?” ”

Conan nodded secretly and continued: “These knife marks were originally coherent, but after they were discovered by the murderer, the murderer destroyed them, so that, Officer Twilight, next, you adjust the drawers on those cabinets according to what I said, and you will know.” ”

“First, reverse the left drawer in the top row with the right drawer in the same row.”

“Next, switch the left drawer in the second row to the left drawer in the fifth row.”

“Again, the left side of the second row is reversed to the right of the second and second rows, and then the left of the third row is reversed to the right of the second and fourth rows.”

“Finally, it is the fifth row left to the second and the fourth row to the left to the third inversion.”

“How, got it? This is the death message that the murderer must hide even if the entire reception room is cut with knife marks, in order to make this death message disappear from our sight! ”

“This… This is…… Suwa! ”

When Officer Twilight finished adjusting the drawer according to his words, everyone was stunned, because when those wide knife marks were connected, it was the hiragana of Yuji Suwa’s surname!

“It’s really Mr. Suwa!”

Akuzu Makoto and Mrs. Maru Inako and they all took a few steps back with some fear, this was simply terrible, the murderer was actually standing deep in them!

“But why? What was Mr. Suwa’s motive for killing? Isn’t he already going to pay back Mr. Marudenjiro? Although it was now possible to confirm that Yuji Suwa was the murderer, Officer Twilight finally asked puzzled.

“I think it’s probably because Mr. Marudenjiro didn’t keep the agreement and sold the collateral that Mr. Suwa borrowed money from him, right? Presumably, it should be Mr. Suwa’s very important Toshiro, so Mr. Suwa should have killed Mr. Marudenjiro in a fit of anger! ”

This is speculated from what Conan said before Akuzu Makoto, although there is no evidence, but it should be eight or nine inseparable, this Maru Denjiro lent money to Suwa and Akuzu, in fact, this is a private usury, and this kind of lending naturally requires precious collateral or guarantor.

The only thing Conan can think of, naturally, is that the collateral being sold or forcibly occupied has caused contradictions, and it is not difficult to see from Akuzu Makoto’s previous confession that Marudenjiro is a mercenary person, and it is not surprising that this kind of person does such a thing.

After listening to the words of “Maori Kogoro”, Suwa Yuji smiled helplessly, as if the whole person had been drained, he sighed deeply and said the reason for everything.

“Mr. Maori, you are really very amazing, really completely seen through by you, some time ago, because of the urgent use at home, I borrowed 5 million yuan with Marudenjiro, and the collateral is a famous knife passed down from generation to generation in our family. Kikuchiyo! ”

“However, when I came to repay the loan as agreed today, he actually told me that he sold Kikuchiyo! He also said what is the interest on borrowing money, and finally slandered Kikuchiyo as a broken copper and iron, and not worth anything at all! ”

“I absolutely cannot forgive this untrustworthy bastard! So in a fit of rage, I killed him with a knife! Right! Just like this! ”

Suddenly, he finally snatched the katana in the hands of the police officer next to him, pulled out the knife and rushed over, almost instantly slashing down on the head!

Conan’s face was suddenly shocked, because the situation happened too suddenly, and Conan wanted to make a move but it was too late! (Oh my God!) Is this guy crazy? In front of so many policemen, he dared to attack the detective handling the case! ）

It’s just the right time!

“Stop!”

A beautiful figure rushed next to Uncle Maori, and Yuji Suwa was shocked, and before he could react, a high-raised leg kick hit him in the wrist!

The katana instantly broke away and flew out, Suwa Yuji looked at the girl who had stopped in front of Uncle Maori in surprise, who is it not Xiaoran?

“You’re trying to hurt my dad!” Xiaoran looked at Yuji Suwa with a solemn face, and had already put on a karate attack posture, in fact, she had already walked in after the reasoning of “Uncle Maori” began.

Officer Twilight and the others also reacted immediately, and several police officers came up to subdue Yuji Suwa together!

Suwa Yuji did not have any resistance, but said to everyone with a wry smile: “It turned out to be Mr. Mori’s daughter, I didn’t expect such martial bravery, it is really admirable!” But don’t worry, I didn’t want to hurt Mr. Mori, I just tried Mr. Mori, I was not qualified to be a samurai after losing my family heirloom Kikuchiyo, and I think that sword just now, I think it was the last time I made a sword. ”

“But seeing my sword slashing over, Mr. Mori is still indifferent, this courage is really admirable, worthy of being a detective Maori Kogoro!” Your daughter actually kicked all the swords in my shou, and she is also a tiger father and no dog daughter! I think my biggest mistake was meeting you, maybe my sword was broken from the moment I killed someone! Mr. Officer, I killed the man, I confess! ”

Suwa Yuji finally bowed deeply to Ran and Uncle Mori apologetically, and took the initiative to leave with the police.

Conan quietly walked out and silently watched him being taken away by the police, although he was a murderer, but Conan also heard the tardiness and loneliness of a samurai from his last sincere words…
