My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 125 Harming others will ultimately harm yourself

Aoki Song himself did not go to get the rubber boat. Although it was an inflatable boat, its weight was very considerable. Aoki Song called two criminals to come over and take out the rubber boat.

At this time, Kazuma Saito and others who ran to investigate the creek outside the temple also came back. Kazuma Saito came to find Aoki Song with an evidence bag. After entering the door, Kazuma Saito said: "Police Department, this is

We found it outside on the banks of the creek."

Qingmusong took it and looked at it. There were some wood fragments and some used tape. He looked carefully and saw fingerprints faintly visible on the tape. He couldn't help but feel convinced. This was irrefutable evidence.

Already.

Immediately, Saito Kazuma was summoned by the Forensic Bureau. Aoki Song handed the evidence bag to the other party and asked, "Can the fingerprints on the tape be extracted?"

The criminal from the forensics department did not answer immediately. Instead, he took it and observed it carefully before nodding and saying: "The fingerprints on it are very clear and complete and can be extracted."

"That's good!" Aoki Song then asked the criminals from the forensics department to put the physical evidence away, and then led everyone back to the retreat room.

Entering the monastery, Aoki Song walked up to Megure Police Department and said: "Police Department, Saito and the others have found the decisive evidence. I have deduced who the murderer is through questioning Master Kuanian."

After hearing this, the Mumu Police Department immediately asked: "Who is the murderer?"

After listening to Qingmusong's words, Monk Kuan Nian had a vague guess in his mind.

There were only a few people in the temple last night. Mu Nian Tunnian and he both fell asleep at the same time, and were woken up by Mouri Kogoro's screams at the same time in the middle of the night. If the murderer was not Moori Kogoro and the other three, nor was he an outsider, then

There is only one person...

Qingkisong did not immediately return to Officer Memu's question. Instead, he looked at Monk Xiunian and asked, "Master Xiunian, I would like to ask you a question."

Monk Xiunian was originally a little uneasy because of Qingmusong's various actions. Seeing that Qingmusong named him now, he became even more uneasy, so he just looked at Qingmusong and did not speak.

"I just asked Detective Maori. He said he saw you looking tired this morning. Out of curiosity, he asked you why. Your answer was that you were studying scriptures until three o'clock in the morning last night. Is that right?"

"That's right!" Monk Xiunian said bravely while facing everyone's gaze.

Aoki Song continued: "In that case, you should have heard the scream at two o'clock in the morning. I want to ask you, do you remember who made the scream at that time?"

Upon hearing this, Monk Xiunian lowered his head and remained silent, his face gradually becoming ugly.

Seeing this, Qingmu Song looked at Monk Xiunian and said, "You couldn't answer it because you were busy arranging the crime in this monastic room, so you didn't hear it, right?"

"Officer, you mean... Xiunian is the murderer?!" Monk Mu Nian was very surprised when he heard this and said: "How could it be Xiunian? Xiunian only came to the temple last year. If it was a trap,

It matches the case two years ago, what if it was the same person?"

"Because the methods of committing crimes are the same, the first impression is that the murderer is committing crimes consecutively, and the two cases are committed by the same person. But there is another possibility, that is, the victim of the second case is actually the victim of the second case.

The murderer of one case was killed in the name of 'avenging the victim of the first case.'" Aoki Song said.

As soon as these words came out, Miss Kikuno in the room was the first to lose her temper: "You mean, Zhongnian was killed by my grandfather!"

Aoki Song nodded, "Although there is no evidence, according to what Detective Maori said, last night Abbot Tominaga enthusiastically introduced the legend of the foggy dog ​​in the temple. But after hearing Detective Maori's name, his face immediately changed and he stopped Kuan

Judging from Master Nian and the others' case about Master Zhongnian, he did have a problem regarding Master Zhongnian's death.

Most likely, it’s because Miss Kikuno and you have feelings for Master Zhongnian, so you don’t want to travel. The marriage contract you have made since childhood. But for Abbot Tianyong, it is more advantageous for you to marry the heir of a large temple than to marry a practicing monk.

, that’s why he killed Master Zhongnian.”

Harming others will ultimately harm yourself!

As the saying goes, it is not the ghosts and gods that are scary, but the human heart.

There are times when monks are overwhelmed by benefits.

"No, this is impossible, this can't be true." Upon hearing this, Miss Kikuno slumped down on the ground with her legs like a duck. She covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly. She couldn't believe this fact.

Because of her feelings, her first love, Zhongnian, was killed by her grandfather, and then Xiunian killed her grandfather in revenge for Zhongnian. The two people closest to her were both killed because of her, which made Miss Kikuno quite bearable.

Can't live.

Monk Xiunian could not shed tears without seeing the coffin at this time. He wanted to struggle a little. He hid his smile and said: "Officer, are you kidding? I am so short that I can kill the abbot and then hang him."

Have you gone to such a high place?"

Aoki Song pointed to the rubber boat he had just taken out and said: "You can do it as long as you use the rubber boat and the waterfall next to the temple to introduce the water into the monastic room."

"What?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Officer Memu said in a daze: "Introduce water into the monastery? Although there is a waterfall next to it, there is still a distance from the skylight to the waterfall. How to introduce it?"

"Woodboards, as long as you use wooden boards, you can achieve the purpose. I inspected the floor in the place washed by the waterfall, and found that there was a floorboard, and the connection between the lower part and other floors was chopped off. There were obvious gaps and cracks, that is,

Said the floor could be removed.

Then I saw a lot of cherry blossom petals stuck to the gap between the slats. It should be because the tape had been pasted on it before. After it was peeled off, a little glue was left behind, which was stained with cherry blossom petals.

."

As he said that, Qing Mu Song raised his finger and pointed to a certain part of the wall of the precept chamber and said: "Police department, look there, there is still a piece of cherry blossom petal stuck on it. If it was just a simple cherry blossom that fell in from the skylight after blooming, it would be impossible for it to be stained.

To the wall."

Everyone followed Aoki Song's fingers, and sure enough they saw a cherry blossom petal stuck to the wall.

"I just went to investigate. The width of the floor is exactly the width of the skylight. As long as I put tape on the gap and drive the removable floor between the skylight and the railing, the water from the waterfall can be introduced into the monastery.

, and then fill the entire room with water.

Later, because the entire room was sealed, water would accumulate in the room with nowhere to flow, and the water level would rise. Then use this rubber boat to rise with the water surface until it reaches the bottom of the cantilever. As long as Tianyong Abbot's

The body was placed on a rubber boat and covered with a tarpaulin to keep Abbot Tianyong dry.

When the water surface rises to the point where the cantilever beam is lowered, you can easily hang it on the cantilever beam, then climb out from the cantilever beam, drain the water in the monastery, and retrieve the rubber boat to complete this modus operandi." Aoki Song said.

.

"What about the big hole in the wall of this room?" Officer Megure asked again."

"It should have been like this when the water was drained." Aoki Song said: "If the entire room is filled with water, the pressure of the water at the bottom will be very high. If the door is opened to let out water, the water will flow out the moment the door is opened.

It will rush out and sweep away anyone who opens the door.

But if you use an ax to make a hole in the wall in front of your body, especially at the entrance of the cave that Master Kuan Nian and the others had used wooden boards to repair before, the ax can easily make a hole, and the water will be under pressure.

Under the influence of this, people will be fine as long as they don't stand directly opposite the opening."

As he spoke, Aoki Song looked at the monastic room again and continued: "The area of ​​​​this monastic room is four and a half standard tatami mats, and the height is ten meters. In other words, the cubic area of ​​the entire room is 2.7 meters × 2.7 meters ×

10 meters, that is, 72.9 cubic meters. The specific gravity of water is 1, so the weight of water accumulated in the room is 72.9 tons.

If there is a hole in the wall at the bottom of the water, the water inside will rush out with a pressure of 1×9.8×10 Pascals. With 72.9 tons of water, it will surge out with about the force of a truck rushing out.

It's no problem if a big hole breaks out of the wall."

Although I don't understand it, I feel it makes sense.

The police department and many people are currently in this situation.

He couldn't help but suddenly realized: "So that's why such a big hole was opened, but there were almost no damaged walls or damaged wooden fragments left."

"Saito and the others have found the flying debris in the woods on both sides of the creek outside the temple," Aoki Song said.

The criminal from the forensics department quickly stepped forward and showed the evidence bag to Officer Megure.

Officer Megure looked at it and said, "It's indeed pieces of wood and tape!"

"I've already asked the forensics department. They can extract fingerprints from the tape. The fingerprints on it are the murderers." Aoki Song replied, and then continued: "But thanks to Detective Mori, I don't have to go to such trouble.

It was deduced who the murderer was.

If you want to fill the monastery with water, judging from the amount of water flowing into the floor, it will be impossible within six or seven hours. Even if you don't need to fill the whole room with water, you only need to fill it from the horizontal surface to a seat not far below the cantilever beam.

But it will take at least five hours.

As water pours into this room from a place as high as the skylight, accidents can easily occur. I think the murderer will stay on the rubber boat to ensure that the rubber boat will not capsize due to the water poured into the skylight. Abbot Tianyong's

The initial estimate of the time of death was between 10 pm and 12 pm, which means that the murderer was still in this room at 2 am.

Detective Maori and the others made a scream when they got up to go to the toilet at 2 o'clock in the morning last night. Master Kuan Nian, Master Mu Nian, and Master Tun Nian were all woken up by this, and they got up in a hurry to check.

Master Xiunian was not in the room at that time, and you were the only one who had no alibi, so you are the murderer!"

"Xiu Nian..." Monk Kuan Nian looked at him and asked sadly, "Did you really kill the abbot to avenge Zhong Nian?"

The method of committing the crime has been seen through by Qing Mu Song, and the police have found irrefutable evidence. Monk Xiunian was completely unable to argue at this time. He lowered his head and said sadly: "Yes, it was the abbot I killed. I killed him to avenge my brother."

.

Zhongnian is my biological brother. When I received the news of his death two years ago, I never believed that he would commit suicide because he had just sent me a letter saying that he wanted to get married with the person he liked.

Su Shuangfei asked me to bless him. He wrote such a letter to my brother who might suddenly commit suicide.

So in order to investigate the truth behind my brother's death, I hid my real surname and came to this temple to become a monk through the introduction of distant relatives and temples. In the first half year of coming here, I tried my best to explore the temple and succeeded.

He discovered the modus operandi of his brother's death.

But with this modus operandi, anyone could kill my brother. Senior Brother Kuan Nian and the others would not mention the murder. Even if they mentioned it once or twice, they would be reprimanded by the abbot and Senior Brother Kuan Nian, so I have never been able to check it.

Find out who the murderer is.

However, after Detective Mori came yesterday, I knew it. Seeing the strange attitude of the abbot, I knew that he must know the truth. But I thought of Miss Kikuno who had a relationship with my brother. She is the granddaughter of the abbot. Now

She also married the heir of a large temple, and the abbot may have concealed the truth because of Kikuno-san.

So last night I deliberately went to the abbot's room, drank with him, got him drunk, and then asked him about his brother. The abbot was not prepared for me and didn't know that I was Zhongnian's biological brother. He was drunk again, so

He told the whole story about murdering his brother.

The reason why he killed his brother is exactly what you theorized, police officer. It was that he did not want to see his granddaughter Miss Kikuno, who was engaged to the heir of a large temple, because she fell in love with my brother and then regretted the marriage. I heard from the abbot that my brother seemed to have been married to Kikuno.

The lady made an appointment to elope and leave home together.

I didn't want to kill anyone at the time. I asked the host to surrender. But the host sneered and said, "It was two years ago. I didn't leave any evidence at all. And thanks to that incident, we

The temple also became famous because it was a temple haunted by foggy dogs.'

He also scolded his brother, saying that he was naive, cunning, and a wolf-hearted person. He kindly took him in to practice in the temple, but he secretly seduced Miss Kikuno and made Miss Kikuno agree to elope with him for love. He said that his brother just wanted toad.

Eat swan meat and want to plot the mountain mud temple.

What he said made me lose my mind, so I grabbed a rope in the room, strangled the abbot's neck and killed him. When I came back to my senses, I realized that I had killed him.

Abbot, then we can only use the abbot’s modus operandi to fake the abbot’s suicide by hanging.”

As he spoke, Monk Xiunian looked up at Qingmusong and said with some sadness: "Officer, if you had handled this case two years ago, then I wouldn't be where I am today."

The last words sounded quite like complaining that the criminals who handled the case before were idiots.

Heartbreaking!

After hearing this, Mumu Police Department stretched out his hand and pressed his hat unnaturally. Although he was embarrassed, he still took a step forward, bowed slightly to Monk Xiunian and said: "I was responsible for this case two years ago. Master Xiunian is very sorry.

,I didn’t find out the truth about your brother’s murder two years ago.”

As for saying that no new clues can be found, there is no evidence, etc., they are all somewhat feeble in front of Monk Xiunian.

"Even if I came to handle this case two years ago, it would be impossible to solve it." Qingmusong said very calmly: "When Master Zhongnian's body was discovered, it had already been three days. In these three days, the sky

I'm afraid the permanent abbot has erased all the evidence, and even if I could see through this modus operandi, I still wouldn't be able to solve the case."

Just like Monk Xiunian did half a year ago, even if you see through this crime modus operandi, you still don't know who the real culprit is, because anyone can use this crime modus operandi to commit murder.

This is not really because Qingkisong has high emotional intelligence and is whitewashing the Mumu Police Department, but it is the fact. Without evidence, even if Qingkisong guessed that Abbot Tianyong killed Monk Zhongnian, there is nothing he can do to the other party. Just hire a lawyer, Abbot Tianyong.

You can get away with it.

In this case, we really cannot blame all the blame on the Memu Police Department.

Of course, the Mumu Police Department still has a certain responsibility in this case. Although the case was dropped because no clues could be found, the Mumu Police Department did not directly seal it and ended the case with suicide.

There is a big difference between the two.

The Mumu Police Department should apologize to Monk Xiunian.

"That's it!" Monk Xiunian lowered his head after hearing this, and his complaints against the police were somewhat reduced. Of course, there was still some resentment.

Takagi Sheba on the side stepped forward with a wink, handcuffed Monk Xiunian and escorted him away, so that the Memu Police Department did not need to continue to be embarrassed.

Therefore, it is not without reason that Wataru Takagi was able to be cultivated by the Megure Police Department and eventually pursue Miwako Sato. His vision is better than that of many people.

Well, I'm talking about Kazuma Saito.

Although Saito Kazuma's emotional intelligence is not low, it is still a little worse than Takagi Wataru.

This case has been successfully solved, and the Megure Police Department, Aoki Song and others also bid farewell to Miss Kikuno, Monk Kannian and others.

As soon as they walked out of Shanniji Temple, Mouri Kogoro immediately approached the two of them, clasped his hands and begged: "Megure Police Department, Aoki-kun, please."

Aoki Song heard this and said with a smile: "Uncle Maori has been a big help this time. Police Department, I'll just be lazy and take over the task of sending Uncle Maori and the others back, so I won't go back to the Metropolitan Police Department."

Despite the fact that Qing Mu Song solved the case very quickly because of cheating, in fact, he had driven here before and spent a lot of time searching for evidence. It was already the afternoon now.

By the time he drove back to downtown Tokyo, it was already past four o'clock and he would have to get off work soon. Aoki Song didn't really want to go back to the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Okay, then you can send Mouri and the others back!" Megure Police Department responded cheerfully, then looked at Mouri Kogoro and said: "You can also give me the keys to your car that had a flat tire and broke down in the woods.

"

Mouri Kogoro was stunned when he heard this, "Ah!"

Memu Police Department smiled and said: "I will send my men to help you deal with it later, as a reward for your help in providing clues to solve the case."

Mouri Kogoro was overjoyed when he heard this. He touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "I'm so sorry, thank you for visiting the Megure Police Department." After saying that, he took out the car key from his trouser pocket and handed it to the Megure Police Department.

Then Maori Kogoro and three others got into Aokisa's car, and Aokisa also got into the car. While fastening his seat belt, he asked: "Uncle Maori, are you going home directly, or are you going to other places?"

Hearing this, Mouri Kogoro touched his stomach and said: "Let's find a place to eat first! The little food I ate in the morning has been digested long ago, and I didn't eat at noon. Now that the case is solved, my stomach is immediately rumbled with hunger.

Call."

Hearing what Mouri Kogoro said, Mao Lilan and Conan also felt a little hungry. If they went home directly, there would be no fresh ingredients at home, and Mao Lilan would have to buy them before they could cook. They didn't know how long they would have to wait.

, so they all agree with what Kogoro Mouri said.

"Then where do you want to go to eat, I will take you there." Aoki Song asked, then he started the car and drove towards the city of Tokyo.

After hearing what Aoki Song said, Mao Lilan immediately said: "Dad, how about we go eat conveyor belt sushi."

"After being blackmailed by that old man, how can we have the budget to eat sushi now?" Mouri Kogoro said angrily.

"It's not like you, dad, had to take a shortcut. As a result, not only did the car get lost, but it also had a flat tire." Mao Lilan complained.

After hearing this, Kogoro Mouri immediately quit his job and retorted: "How can you blame me for this kind of thing! I just want to go home early and save some gas money."

The father and daughter were sitting in Qingmusong's car and started arguing over this issue.

Finally, seeing that they were about to arrive in the city, Aoki Song stopped the quarrel between the two and asked them which restaurant they were going to eat, and the two stopped.

After much deliberation, the three Maori finally decided to go home.

But instead of going home and cooking for myself, I am going to eat cheap sushi at the Lubo Sushi restaurant next door.

The quarrel between father and daughter is just a quarrel, but Mouri Kogoro actually loves Mouri Lan very much.

As for Conan, his sweetheart wanted to eat sushi and decided to eat at Lubo Sushi Restaurant. Naturally, he would not have any objections.

Lubo sushi restaurant!

After hearing that Maori and his daughter had made this decision, Aoki Song's eyes flashed slightly.

This is the place where Rum will work disguised as Kanori Wakada in the future. It is worth mentioning that Rum has not yet worked at Lubo Sushi Restaurant. In the future, Toru Amuro will also work at Polo Coffee Shop, in the 5-chome area of ​​Yoneka Town.

A street is really a geomantic treasure.

Toru Amuro is okay. Although this guy is not a good guy, at least he will not murder others for no reason. Even the test of Mouri Kogoro is still under his control, but Rum...

Thinking of flying a helicopter to shoot at Tokyo Tower Gin.

Aokimatsu's eyes darkened, he had to find a way to borrow Conan or Shuichi Akai's hand to quickly get rid of Rum when he appeared.

He would never let such a big evil person hide near his home.
