The female deceased who was reported happened to be the heroine of the movie on this set.
As soon as the boy and the two detectives entered the set, they skillfully and quickly understood the specific conditions of the scene.
The heroine was killed in the early hours of last night. Her head was dented by a blunt instrument, which was the only fatal injury.
The outside of an ashtray he left on the floor of the room was stained with blood, which was obviously the murder weapon that caused his death.
In addition, there were a large number of bloodstains with special shapes on the floor of the heroine's room, as if they had been rubbed by something. Based on these bloodstains, the boy quickly restored the situation at the scene.
The heroine did not die immediately after suffering a severe blow to the head. She fell to the ground first and fell into a brief coma. This made the murderer mistakenly believe that she was dead, so he hurriedly left the room without even carefully checking her vital signs.
Shortly after the murderer left, the comatose heroine gradually regained consciousness, but it was midnight and she had suffered severe blood loss and was unable to call for help.
In the last moments of her life, the heroine could only rely on the little consciousness remaining in her mind to squirm on the ground, holding the thing in her hand that she thought could point out the identity of the murderer.
The boy said this, and with his white-gloved hand, he picked up the violet flower that was tightly held in the hands of the heroine's corpse.
Among them, Xiao Karasuma was standing behind the two detectives, looking at the boy who was reasoning and solving the case with both fear and curiosity.
Perhaps to her, this kind of real-life scene of detectives solving crimes is still a very novel thing.
Not far behind, Keiko Hatoyama was sitting on a bench on the set, watching the scene quietly.
After all, for Hatoyama Keiko, she had seen this kind of scene too many times in the past.
Because of this, this also allowed her to develop a special ability that she didn't know whether it was a special function or something.
Many times, she could roughly tell the difficulty of these cases just by looking at them.
If it was a case that she felt would be very troublesome to solve, Keiko Hatoyama would basically assist the boy in solving the case.
But if it was a case that seemed extremely simple at first glance, then she would choose to sit aside and wait for the boy to solve it quickly.
Just like today's case, Hatoyama Keiko took a look at the situation after entering the set, and immediately felt that this should be a fairly simple case, so she went to sit quietly and wait.
And this is indeed the case. After viewing the scene, the boy sorted out most of the information.
This must have been committed by an acquaintance, and the murderer must have committed a passionate murder without any premeditation.
Therefore, the murderer must be someone on this set.
Like many cases in the past, this one is about to face the fate of being "pushed aside" by the boy.
The only little hiccup is probably Karasumaru, who has a strong curiosity.
"Why does it have to be an acquaintance who committed the crime?" Xiao Karasuma asked curiously.
The boy turned to look at her and explained: "Because the door lock of the deceased's room showed no signs of damage, and the murderer committed the crime late in the morning, and the deceased was a single woman, so it was impossible for her to be careless enough to do something like this." The act of opening the door to a stranger under certain circumstances."
"Then why must it be a murder of passion?" Xiao Karasuma asked again.
"Because after the murder, the murderer did not even confirm whether the deceased was dead, and left the scene in a hurry."
The boy continued to explain, looking quite patient. He seemed to want to take advantage of Karasuma's inquiry to explain this to the surrounding detectives and studio personnel.
“If this was a murder planned by the murderer in advance, then the possibility that he forgot to check whether the deceased was dead after committing the crime is extremely low.
In contrast, because of some conflicts with the deceased, the possibility of killing someone passionately and impulsively, forgetting to confirm whether the deceased was really dead, and fleeing the scene in a panic is actually higher and more consistent. Situation on site.
All the mysteries lie in this violet flower. "
As if he thought he had explained it all, the boy looked at the violet flower in his hand again.
In the back, although Hatoyama Keiko did not come directly to see the scene, she was quietly listening to the boy's reasoning.
When she heard the boy mention the violet again, she was slightly startled, and suddenly raised her hand to cover her mouth, with a look of surprise on her face.
She knew who the murderer was.
"Could the murderer be Miss Kate?"
Among the onlookers on the set, a staff member suddenly spoke up.
"I remember that Miss Kate sent these flowers yesterday afternoon..."
In the crowd, Miss Kate, who was named, suddenly turned pale and quickly wanted to defend herself.
"Wait, wait! The flowers were indeed sent by me, but..."
"It won't be Miss Kate."
The boy glanced at the older woman who had enthusiastically explained various equipment on the set to him and Hatoyama Keiko yesterday, and slowly said:
"There are two vases on the bedside and one on the dressing table in the deceased's room. Since the flowers in them were sent by Miss Kate, and if Miss Kate is the murderer, then the deceased only needs to hold any of the flowers at will.
There is no need to crawl to the vase further away from the bedside to take out this violet. In other words, what the deceased wanted to convey to us is not just a simple 'flower', but must have something with the violet. associated information. "
Behind, Hatoyama Keiko was waiting with a smile. She was waiting for the boy to ask her questions.
This case is indeed very simple, but there is a piece of knowledge necessary to solve the case that the boy living in poverty does not have. Without this useless piece of knowledge, it is impossible to truly understand the message the deceased wanted to convey.
This is why the boy has not identified the murderer yet.
According to past experience, it was almost time for the boy to ask her.
"Then...could it be Mr. Greg?"
At this time, another staff member asked.
"Because the code name of Mr. Gregg's character in the film is Violet..."
"Hey! I was discussing my character's script with the director and screenwriter all night long last night! Don't accuse me so unfairly, okay?!"
The second male lead named Greg heard this and shouted anxiously.
"That's true. The three of us discussed it until almost six o'clock last night before we went back separately..." The director and screenwriter also nodded in agreement.
But this time, the boy looked closely at the violet in his hand and said nothing.
Just as Hatoyama Keiko thought, he knew that the answer lay in this violet, but he really couldn't figure out the purpose of this violet.
After eliminating the possibilities that he could think of one by one, the boy finally determined that the message that the deceased really wanted to convey might have exceeded his knowledge reserve.
So, he habitually turned his head and looked at Keiko Hatoyama, who was sitting not far away.
Unlike him, a bookworm who had only learned the necessary knowledge for exams in school since he was a child, Hatoyama Keiko had read a lot of books since he was a child, and his knowledge reserve was far beyond what he could compare with.
Whenever the boy encounters a case that he knows how to reason about but cannot move forward due to lack of necessary knowledge, he will seek help from Keiko Hatoyama.
But this time, something is different.
"It's Poplar!"
Suddenly, Karasuma, who had been bowing his head in deep thought since just now, suddenly shouted excitedly.
"I know! This is the message the deceased really wanted to convey! The murderer's name is Poplar!"
As soon as she finished speaking, among the surrounding staff members, the male lead named Poplar suddenly turned pale.
However, in just a moment, his face showed a fierce look, he pulled out the dagger hidden in his pocket, and rushed straight towards Xiao Karasuma.
