Maybe Lu Ren was a bit heavy-handed, but until the Gunma police arrived, he still maintained a baby-like sleep, lying peacefully on the sofa motionless. Of course, it doesn't matter. As a prisoner, his mission has been accomplished.
"Mr. Lu Ren, we meet again!" As soon as he got off the police car, Yamamura waved to Lu Ren who was standing at the gate from a distance. As he spoke, he ran to Lu Ren, and then looked left and right excitedly, "Where's Detective Maori?"
"Brother Maori didn't come today."
"Ah..." Yamamura Cao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Compared to Riku Ren, he liked and trusted Mouri Kogoro more.
There was no particular reason, he just simply felt that Maori's way of solving crimes was more handsome. Just like Superman fighting monsters, the more handsome the moves, the higher the damage. As for Lu Ren, he almost didn't care. The case was solved smoothly and it was not fun at all.
Lu Ren didn't know what was going on in Yamamura Cao's mind, and he wasn't interested in it either.
"I have subdued the murderer, just take him away."
"Huh? Oh, oh." Yamamura Cao reacted and nodded repeatedly, with joy beyond words, "Okay, okay. I'm really sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble, police and citizens are cooperating. His name is Kuramoto Yooji, he's upstairs."
"Okay!" Yamamura rushed in at the lead, but before he could take more than two steps, he stopped again, turned around, and said to his police officers, "Follow up quickly, don't dawdle behind."
To arrest a murderer, you don't necessarily have to do it yourself. After all, he is a murderer, and it would not be good if he breaks out and hurts someone. The more people there are, the less likely things will happen.
Going up to the second floor, there was another group of old acquaintances, but this was not the time to reminisce and chat. Looking at a man and a woman coming out of the next room, Yamamura Cao recalled the names of the people Lu Ren said, and looked at the tall man with a straight face. The man said: "You must be Yoji Kuramoto, take it away."
"Ah? No, I am Tian Xiang. Yaoji is still in the room...resting." Tian Tianxiang hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to hide the fact that Kuramoto Yoji was knocked unconscious.
Because it was Kuramoto who made the move first, it would be unreasonable even if the police were involved. Besides, in this situation, it is better to have more than less.
"Rest?" Yamacun Cao said angrily, "Have you the nerve to rest after killing someone?"
He waved his hand and ordered his men: "Go in and catch this bastard!"
Seeing the police approaching with murderous intent, Tiantangxiang subconsciously took a step back to make way for them. Then he reacted and said cautiously: "Officer, is there any misunderstanding?"
Although Tiantangxiang is also a little suspicious of Kuramoto Yoji, there is no evidence in these notes, and people are arrested as soon as they come up. How can you handle a case like this? After all, against his teammates, Tiantangxiang still withstood the pressure and stood in front of the police.
"It's not a misunderstanding, the evidence is here." Lu Ren didn't want to waste time here, and he was too lazy to argue with them.
He walked into the bookshelf at the crime scene. After putting on white gloves, he took out a row of books from the bottom of the bookshelf and placed them on the ground. Then Lu Ren stood up and moved out of the way, "You can read it for yourselves."
Yamamura Cao was the first to come over, imitating Lu Ren's posture and squatting down. He immediately realized something was wrong. He reached forward and tentatively explored, "There is a hole behind here!"
"It's not a hole, it's a secret passage." Lu Ren corrected: "This secret passage leads from this room to Kuramoto Yoji's room."
He looked at the two people in Heaven, "Do you know this secret passage?"
They both shook their heads. Even if they knew, they had to pretend not to know now, not to mention that they didn't know the existence of this secret passage in the first place.
"There are his shoe prints and fingerprints here. The evidence is conclusive. Let's arrest him."
"Okay!" Yamamura Cao took action immediately.
Tenten Xian and Makino Jun looked at each other, sighed together, and followed Yamamura Cao out of the room. Seeing that the person was almost gone, Yingyou, the main hall, mustered up his courage and questioned in a low voice, "Brother Ren, I have a question."
"explain."
"I'm thinking, is this evidence really enough to arrest someone? Kuramoto Yooji is the highest suspect now, but if he bites him to death, this secret passage is used by him to have a tryst with Hobo Renko, people He didn’t kill him. He concealed the existence of the secret passage at first because he was worried that if the secret passage was discovered, the situation would be very detrimental to him.”
Hondo Eyou's voice was not loud. If he spoke too loudly, he was worried that his words would be used by Kuramoto. Don't forget that Kuramoto didn't expect it, but he enlightened him after being reminded like this. That would be a bad thing.
Lu Ren was a little surprised when he heard Bentang Yingyou's hypothesis. He turned to look at Bentang Yingyou, focusing entirely on the child for the first time.
Looking at Bentang Yingyou's tense little face, and seeing the way in which although he was timid but still had the courage to look into his eyes, Lu Ren smiled and said, "That's right, it would be a pity not to use your brain to commit crimes."
"!?" Conan suddenly became alert and suddenly raised his head to stare at Lu Ren. What is this for? In front of him, did you recruit Bentang Yingyou to join the gang?
However, our hall Yingyou doesn’t know Lu Ren’s true identity, at least not for the time being. Hearing Lu Ren's words, he thought Lu Ren was ridiculing him, so he couldn't help but raise his voice, "Mr. Lu Ren, I'm serious."
"Okay, okay, don't be angry." Lu Ren simply reassured Yingyou, and then said seriously, "Then let me explain briefly."
"First of all, the situation you mentioned is unreasonable. If Kuramoto and the deceased really had an affair, there is nothing shady about their relationship, and there is no need to resort to a secret meeting. Your statement itself is untenable. Stop."
"Secondly, if it is true as you said, they were dating through a secret passage. Then why is there only Kuramoto's shoe prints and fingerprints in this secret passage, but not those of the deceased?"
Our hall Yingyou thought for a moment, "Maybe it's because Miss Renzi is afraid of getting dirty."
"Okay, this barely makes sense. There is another problem. The shoe prints in this secret passage must be two-way. But the shoe prints of the pair of shoes Kuramoto wore today are one-way. And they are One-way shoe prints leading from this room to Kuramoto’s room.”
"unidirectional?"
"Yes. The reason is very simple." Lu Ren briefly described the murderer's crime process to Bentang Yingyou.
Kuramoto must have knocked on the door of the deceased's room first, entered the room and strangled the deceased, and then returned to his bedroom through the secret passage. It was impossible for him to walk from his own bedroom to the deceased's bedroom through a secret passage. If there was too much movement, the deceased would definitely sound a warning.
"Of course, it is possible that Kuramoto has walked repeatedly in the secret passage recently, but this possibility is very low. Judging from the violent temper of the deceased, Kuramoto should have killed passionately. He discovered this secret passage a long time ago, But I never dared to kill anyone. After killing the deceased today, I thought of using this secret passage."
Hondo Yingyou frowned. He admitted that what Lu Ren said made sense, but after all, some details were just assumptions, such as the shoe prints just mentioned. What if Kuramoto didn't kill in passion, but in a premeditated manner, and he had really been walking back and forth in the secret passage recently.
Although he is usually confused here, when it comes to such a big event, he will suddenly become alert and try not to miss every detail.
So although it sounded like a bit of an argument, Hondo Yingyu still insisted on expressing his opinion.
"It's very simple. A person's character determines his methods, and vice versa. His character can be seen from his methods. Only fools would use this kind of killing method."
Lu Ren said without mercy, "He is the only one who knows this secret passage. If it were me, I would drag the deceased into the secret passage after killing him. When everyone finds out that the deceased is not at home, they will search for him no matter what. If you don’t arrive later, call the police again at this time.”
"The reason for calling the police was 'My friend is missing and I don't know where he is.' The nature of the disappearance is much lighter than death. People disappear inexplicably every day in Japan, not to mention that she was still in the mountains, maybe she accidentally slipped. Even if most of the missing people will not be found, they are still missing and will not be classified as dead in the short term."
"Different degrees of severity will naturally lead to different efforts by the police. Compared with death cases, the police's intensity in tracing disappearance cases is not too high. Since it is not a death, but a simple disappearance, then look around for someone. If you look for it, there’s nothing you can do if you can’t find it.”
"This is not a special case, it is the same in every country. Because the police force is always insufficient, we must learn to distribute it appropriately. Once the news is over, the police withdraw, and then block this secret passage."
"Of course, this method is not foolproof. Maybe some police officers have a strong sense of responsibility and are particularly concerned about this disappearance case. They come here repeatedly to investigate, or even directly lie in ambush nearby to monitor the movements of other people in the villa for a long time. This is all possible. But after all, it is better than his method of directly provoking the police by jumping in the face."
This hall Yingyou is speechless.
Lu Ren patted his shoulder, turned around and walked out of the room.
