Detective Conan: I, with my magical powers, am going to destroy the world!

I don't know if it's because of the case, but there's a sense of oppression about it, and the air seems to be filled with despair.

The incident occurred in the living room, a room of about 16 square meters. Apart from the body being moved away, everything else remained as it was.

Chi Chufeng used a flashlight to examine the sealed doors and windows, and silently surveyed the room's furnishings in conjunction with the photos provided by the police.

There were four coal stoves on the low table, and the body lay around the low table on the tatami mat, looking completely normal.

"It's so miserable."

"That's it anyway."

Officer Mori was always a little reserved in front of Akatsuka Kaze.

“We suspect that after Sato Masakazu froze the girl to death, he moved her here in a car and then committed suicide by burning charcoal with the other two.”

"But why must we freeze them to death first and then bring them here? If we were planning to commit suicide by burning charcoal, wouldn't it have been better to do it right here?" Chi Chufeng asked.

"So, it's possible that he only thought of committing suicide by burning charcoal after killing the girl."

"There is also a time conflict."

Chi Chufeng browsed the call for volunteers posted by Sato Shoichi on a suicide forum.

"The post was made a few days ago, so the girl couldn't have been frozen to death for too long."

“Moreover, this doesn’t match the calculation results,” Misumi wrote in the data.

"I heard that when the police arrived at the scene, the indoor carbon monoxide level was 204 ppm, but based on the volume of the place and the amount of charcoal burned, there should be up to 1800 ppm of carbon monoxide inside."

Misumi walked to the window covered with tape. The scene was completely sealed off, with only one door that could be opened and closed.

"The ventilation vents were blocked, the window seams were sealed with paper and tape, and the door gaps were also very small. The airtightness of this room was already quite high. Considering the suicide outcome, 204 ppm is far too low."

“The ground is indeed a bit low,” Officer Maoli wondered, “but what does that prove?”

“From the time the three died until the police arrived,” Misumi ignored Mori and looked at Akatsuka, saying, “someone opened the door to this room, which is why the carbon monoxide levels were lower. It was this person who moved the girl’s body into the room.”

Akatsuka's gaze shifted from the room to Misumi.

He's a forensic doctor, yet he's so professional at solving cases.

"So the culprit is someone else?" Officer Mori asked, bewildered.

"That makes the most sense."

"So that means the perpetrator knew that the body of someone who committed suicide by burning charcoal would turn orange-pink, so they mixed the frozen body into the suicide scene?"

Officer Mori, his mind a bit muddled, quickly interrupted Misumi to reconsider, asking, "Is that really possible?"

“Without the autopsy, this would be the perfect crime,” Misumi said calmly, glancing at Akatsuka.

Chi Chufeng came to his senses. "This person must be very knowledgeable about suicide and know that there will be people in this house committing mass charcoal burning suicide. There is a high probability that he has logged into that suicide website. He lives alone, has a reclusive personality, and is probably not too far in age from the murdered girl. It is highly likely that he met the two girls online and then met them in person."

Seeing that both Misumi and Officer Mori were looking at him, Akatsuka said, "Start the investigation with that suicide website; maybe we'll find something."

Officer Mori was stunned. "You're practically a prophet. Did Lord Akashi know from the beginning that Sato Shoichi wasn't the murderer?"

......... ....... ...

"It's just basic logical reasoning."

Chi Chufeng put away the documents and smiled at Misumi: "Thank you for your help, Dr. Misumi. I will continue to follow up on this case. If we can find the culprit quickly, that girl named Xiaohua will be less in danger."

“I should be the one in trouble,” Misumi said, handing his business card to Akatsuka. “I’ll let you know when the test results are out.”

Night falls at Lord Akashi's office.

While Ai started eating dinner, Akasoka was still reviewing documents.

"A study on the use of coal to commit murder and suicide, specifically the forced suicide case of a family of four in Urawa City. Misumi Mikoto?" Ai leaned closer to the computer screen. "Is it Dr. Misumi's paper?"

Chi Chufeng rubbed his sore eyes.

"The mother mixed sleeping pills into black tea to put her husband and son to sleep, and then lit coal in the room to fill it with carbon monoxide. In the end, only her daughter, who was sleeping in the next room, was rushed to the hospital in time and saved. If it had been 30 minutes later, it could have caused brain damage."

"Dr. Misumi?"

"Yes, I looked into this case. The director of Amamiya General Hospital, his wife, and their eldest son died together in their residence in Urawa City. The only survivor seems to be a girl named Misumi, who was adopted by the director's sister's family and renamed from Amamiya Mikoto to Misumi Mikoto."

Chapter 610 The Onmyoji is really handsome!

Akatsuka placed a case file faxed from the Metropolitan Police Department on the table.

"It seems that no matter what kind of mother could do such a thing, it was never found out back then. However, it is truly remarkable that Dr. Misumi did not become an extreme criminal after such an incident."

Ai didn't look at the information: "Why are you suddenly so concerned about that Dr. Misumi?"

"Huh?" Chi Chufeng glanced at her.

Would a normal person check this kind of information when meeting someone for the first time?

"This is it."

Akatsukaze put down the document under Ai's scrutinizing gaze.

"I'm just a little interested in cases of forced suicide."

"and then?"

"Then, we still have to investigate the case tomorrow, right? Although the murderer is probably not Sato Shoichi, I still want to understand as much as possible about this kind of suicide case."

"Really?" Ai temporarily put away her suspicious gaze.

Chi Chufeng thought of Dr. Misumi during the day and crossed his fingers in deep agreement.

"Forensic doctors are really amazing. With the information they collect, investigating cases seems much easier. My thinking is much clearer. The appearance of freezing to death can be the same as carbon monoxide poisoning. They can also determine the cause of death from blood accumulation in the heart, and infer from the indoor carbon monoxide concentration that someone entered the room midway. If the gastric juice is tested, we might even be able to find out where the girl had her last meal."

"Are you still eating?" Ai asked.

"eat."

The following day, at the Nishi-Musashino Police Station in Tokyo.

Because Ai was found by Ayumi and the others, Akatsuki met with Officer Mori alone.

"Lord Akaso," Mori explained as soon as they met, "we have a lead on the girl named Hana. A couple contacted the police to look for her. Her name is Matsukura Hana, an 18-year-old high school girl. We heard she ran away from home."

"What about the couple?"

"Still at the police station."

Amidst the curious glances of his subordinates, Mori respectfully received Akasaka Kaze and led him into his office.

Inside, a couple who looked unwell were arguing and blaming each other.

"Where is that child? Why did you have to break my heart like this?"

"It's all your fault. You have to control everything and do everything your way. Her running away from home is all your fault."

"You clearly don't care about anything, and you still have the nerve to say that!"

“That’s how it is,” Mori said somewhat awkwardly, looking at the woman inside who was crying and fighting with her husband. “After Matsukura Hana disappeared, we found that her blog was full of things like ‘I want to die’ and ‘I want to leave here.’”

Chi Chufeng didn't enter the office, but asked directly, "What about the girl who was murdered? Has her identity been confirmed?"

Murder is one thing, but why is suicide such a serious problem in this world?

Society hasn't driven people to such despair, has it?

"Were they also users of that suicide website?"

“I’m not sure about that,” Mori shook his head. “It seems that no family members are looking for the victim, but we are still investigating based on the clues on her body. There’s only a necklace pendant, and we don’t know if it will lead to anything.”

"Beep beep." Chi Chufeng's phone suddenly rang, and a text message from San Cheng popped up.

"The test results are in."

Akatsuka nodded to Officer Mori and walked aside to reply to a message.

"We are still investigating the girl's identity. The other girl may be a high school student who ran away from home, Matsukura Hana..."

The Nishimushisano Police Station is unlikely to produce any results for the time being, and Akatsuka Kaze really doesn't want to have any contact with the noisy Matsukura couple.

After obtaining a document about Matsukura Hanachi from Mori, he immediately rushed to the Tokyo Metropolitan Medical Examiner's Office.

Mori escorted Akaso Kaze out of the police station and only breathed a sigh of relief after watching him leave.

"I always feel that Lord Chichu is different from ordinary people."

“That’s not right, Officer Mori,” the subordinate said, puzzled. “Wasn’t it a case of forced suicide? Sato’s family also wants to close the case as soon as possible. How come the investigation is only going deeper?”

“With Lord Akatsuki involved, things are different,” Mori glared at his subordinate. “At the very least, we need to find out that girl’s identity, right? Get to work! We have to get things done today!”

Tokyo Metropolitan Medical Examiner's Office.

Although the investigation and autopsy team of forensic doctors had nothing to do with each other, Misumi still gathered everyone together for a meeting, euphemistically called "investigation into the cause of death".

"Leave the matter of catching the criminals to the police. The problem now is where the girl froze to death. If we know, we might be able to find another girl on February 2.8th."

Misumi was deep in thought, but the interns below couldn't help but want to complain.

Finding people seems to be part of the police's job.

“Everyone wants to save people, right?” Misumi looked at the silent crowd.

"Moreover, this is a rare opportunity to cooperate with Lord Chichu. The exchange is not over yet. Don't you want Lord Chichu to witness the abilities of a forensic doctor?"
