They were already threatened to such an extent. Conan and Kogoro gritted their teeth and complained: "It's really bad!"
Even though they were very reluctant, they had no choice but to follow Xiaolan's footsteps.
Go through the corridor.
"This room is so dark." Xiaolan sighed.
Conan responded calmly, "Because this room is the exhibition room of hell."
Suddenly, a huge painting appeared in front of several people's eyes.
The portrait depicts a righteous knight blocking the devil.
"Eh...heavenly punishment?"
Xiaolan leaned forward slightly and looked carefully at the text introduction below.
"Tick tock..."
"Tick tock..."
The sound of dripping water came, echoing in the room.
Xiaolan turned around following the sound curiously.
The next second, her pupils shrank suddenly and she screamed loudly subconsciously.
Kogoro and Conan were also completely stunned.
It was actually a bloody corpse, with a painful and twisted expression, and was nailed to the wall.
"It's Boss Zhenzhong!!"
Conan recognized the body and exclaimed.
Seeing this, Kasuga Ling silently took out her cell phone and acted as the alarm person.
"Hey, it's the police. I have a short fat guy nailed to the wall here... uh, no kidding, I..."
She hasn't finished speaking yet.
Mouri Kogoro snatched the phone and then reported all the important things very professionally.
Kasuga Ling smacked her lips, well, we are not as experienced as Maori, who was a police officer, in calling the police.
…
By the time the police arrived at the scene, it was already more than ten minutes later.
Officer Megure was speechless, "Mouri-kun, why is it always you? You were present in all recent cases."
Mao Li didn't care at all, and laughed loudly and answered the question: "Yes, of course no one has touched the body, Officer Megure."
Sighing, Officer Megure turned to Director Ochiai and asked, "So, you haven't seen the prisoner, have you?"
Director Ochiai was slightly startled, then said: "Yes, I asked everyone, and no one saw the prisoner."
At this time, Iijima suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the ceiling.
"Officer, if the prisoner committed the murder here, then the surveillance camera should have captured it."
With the clues, everyone couldn't wait to check the surveillance.
After calling up the image.
Officer Megure began to observe carefully.
Mao Li sat leisurely on the chair and said happily: "The prisoner is really stupid. He didn't know that he would be photographed by the surveillance camera."
On the screen, Boss Manaka came to this room alone.
From time to time he raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
At this moment, the medieval armor behind him suddenly moved, raised his sword high, and slashed down at Boss Manaka with his sword!
Seeing this scene, everyone in the monitoring room suddenly exclaimed, and even Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but stand up from his chair.
In the picture, the medieval armor grabbed Manaka's boss by the throat with his left hand, lifted his whole body up, and nailed him to the wall with a sword in his right hand.
After doing all this, the armor turned and left.
"despair."
Mouri Kogoro clicked the monitoring pause button and looked at the last picture on the screen with some disbelief.
Conan also opened his mouth wide, "Isn't this the scene in that painting?"
Officer Memu was startled and asked curiously.
"That painting?"
"That painting is hanging opposite the deceased, a work called Heavenly Punishment. I think the murderer probably wanted to imitate this painting, right, Conan?"
Kasuga Ling spoke with a smile and rubbed Conan's head.
Conan's heart trembled, and he immediately showed an innocent smile, "As expected of Sister Nahua, she actually thought of this."
He was panicking inside, wouldn't his identity be exposed?
Who would ask a primary school student such a question specifically?
Officer Memu thought for a moment, and then said with some surprise: "It seems that the prisoner is very bold, because if others see him dressed like this, it will cause a commotion."
Xiaolan thought of the no-entry sign.
"So, there was a no-entry sign on the passage leading to the murder room just now."
"Eh? What?" Officer Memu was stunned.
Mao Li said seriously: "I remember it was around four o'clock, right?"
Xiaolan nodded.
"Well, then if you go there after five o'clock, the sign will be gone."
Officer Memu's eyes lit up, and he turned around and continued to look at the surveillance camera.
"In that case, the time of the crime should be around 4:30. I think that sign was placed by the prisoner to prevent others from disturbing him while committing the crime."
Maoli expressed his reasoning, "Then the prisoner separated from the crowd, wore armor, and sneaked into that room..."
Before Maori finished speaking, Officer Megure continued: "Kill the boss Manaka who came here again."
"Then the prisoner must be someone who knows the inside of the museum very well."
"In other words, the prisoner is among you."
Kogoro and Officer Megure each said one sentence and reasoned in perfect agreement.
Just as he said this, Conan suddenly made a voice.
"Look, boss, what is he doing?"
Kasuga Ling turned around lightly, glanced at Conan, then rewinded the video to continue playing, and explained at the same time.
"Boss Manaka was falling...when the prisoner was about to chop him, he seemed to be writing something with a pen and paper before that."
"Ah! What did he write?" Officer Megure's eyes widened.
"Throw away the pen again!" Kogoro whispered.
"Where's the note?"
"Grab it in your hand!"
The two of them had nothing to say to each other.
Until the video was played, Kogoro was surprised and asked: "Could it be that the note..."
"Still in the hands of Boss Manaka!" Officer Megure and Mouri looked at each other.
After another search, a police officer handed over the note.
Officer Megure quickly opened it.
Maori also put his head up to watch.
"This is... Kubota!!!"
The word Kubota was clearly written on the piece of paper in the middle of the paper that was held tightly by Boss Manaka's hand.
"Why, why did you call me my name?!"
Kubota was shouted out in panic and lost his voice. Cold sweat continued to break out on his forehead, and his voice was slightly raised due to fear.
Mouri Kogoro's eyes were a little colder, and he said slowly and seriously: "Perhaps he was wearing armor because he was afraid of being discovered, but the victim discovered the prisoner, so..."
His meaning is already obvious
The culprit is you!
Kubota subconsciously took a step back and denied it with all his strength: "No...it's not me, it's not me!!"
"Then please explain, where were you around 4:30?" Officer Megure stepped forward and asked him.
"Officer Memu, show me the note." Kasuga Ling said suddenly.
"Uh...ok."
Officer Megure handed the note to Kasuga Ling. In this case, he did not think that the prisoner was anyone else.
But when I think of Kasuga Ling's previous reasoning.
Each one is weird to the extreme, but also happens to be the right answer.
He handed over the note anyway.
"At that time I... I was alone in the office doing what the curator asked me to do." Kubota explained shakily.
"..."
Chun Riling took the note and looked hard.
Sure enough, although the prisoner made the paper very messy, you can still see a few marks.
She looked at Conan beside her legs and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
At the same time, she silently handed the note to him, as if she had accidentally shown it to him.
