The rest of the people were watching the arrow in front of Yuanzi, guessing that it might have been accidentally dropped by the murderer when he was about to commit the crime.
It happened that Ghost Stone came back at this time and told Situ Xiu that there was no one nearby. In other words, their house was the only one in this area, and one of these people was the murderer.
The so-called crime committed by an outsider is not true, and it is not the Shadow Mage that everyone speculated. Instead, someone pushed all crimes onto the virtual Shadow Mage.
"Mr. Hamano is so pitiful"
Yuanzi said suddenly.
Everyone looked at Hamano Toshiya lying on the snow not far away.
After checking the surrounding trees, Situ Xiu walked up to Kuroba Kaito and patted him.
Kuroba Kaito turned his head and saw Situ Xiu curling his fingers and lowering his head in confusion.
"Do me a favor and wait..."
Situ Xiu whispered, he probably figured out the criminal's method and the reason for the murder.
"So that's it!"
Kuroba Kaito was a little confused.
"Hurry up and get ready." Situ Xiu waved his hand.
The corners of Kuroba Kaito's mouth twitched twice. Are you using him as a servant?
He turned and left, preparing the props Situ Xiu said.
"Let's go back first."
Seeing Kuroba Kaito leaving, Kuroda Naoko suggested.
"Well, it's too dangerous outside," Huang Yi nodded.
Just when everyone was about to leave, Situ Xiu shouted: "Wait a minute."
"Xiao Xiu, what's wrong?" Koizumi Hongzi looked at Situ Xiu.
Seeing everyone turning around, Situ Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I already know who the murderer of Mr. Hamano is."
"What..." Everyone was shocked.
"Before we talk about the murderer, please wait a few minutes and let my assistant prepare some props."
Situ Xiu said calmly.
"..." Everyone.
"What props?" Xiaolan asked doubtfully.
"The murderer's props, how to get Mr. Hamano's body to the snow more than ten meters in the backyard without leaving any footprints"
Situ Xiu slowly spoke.
"You already know the murderer's methods?" Huang Yi asked in surprise.
"Yes" Situ Xiu nodded.
After hearing Situ Xiu's reply, everyone had different expressions on their faces.
Yuanzi immediately picked up Situ Xiu in two or three steps and said happily: "As expected of my brother, he solved the incident so quickly."
"Brother?" Situ Xiu looked confused. When did he become Yuanzi's younger brother.
"..." Koizumi Hongzi.
"Yes, you are Hongzi's younger brother, that is, my younger brother," Sonoko said with a smile.
"Emm..." Situ Xiu was speechless. With such an explanation, he was also drunk.
Hearing what Yuanzi said, Xiaolan smiled and said nothing.
It just so happened that at this time, Kuroba Kaito stood there on the balcony of Hamano Toshiya's original bedroom and shouted: "Situ Xiu, I'm ready."
"Then just shoot." Situ Xiu waved his hand.
Kuroba Kaito had a black line on his forehead and the corners of his mouth twitched twice. Why did these words sound so awkward?
However, he still followed what Situ Xiu said, picked up the crossbow, pointed it at a tree on the right, and shot. There were two ropes behind the arrow. The long rope was pierced at the back end of the arrow, and the arrow hit the tree. , two long ropes stretched from the balcony to the tree.
Kuroba Kaito's shooting was very powerful, which was why Situ Xiu came to him. Then Kuroba Kaito aimed at a tree on the left and shot at it. Both arrows had the same two ropes at the back end.
The two trees are on the left and right sides, about ten meters apart. After shooting the two arrows, one of the two original lines was straightened from the tail end of the arrow, forming a Δ triangle with a vertical line in the middle. .
"This..." Everyone was shocked. The Δ triangle arrow was pointed at the balcony. The straight line at the bottom was less than one meter away from the body outside.
"The murderer's method of committing the crime is to use the crossbow just now, add two arrows, a rope, and scissors to complete an impossible crime..."
Situ Xiu glanced at everyone. He was observing that there was a hole in the tree, which looked like an arrow hole. Then he checked the nearby trees one by one and found that only two trees had holes, and the distance was ten meters apart. Domi.
"To put it simply, first make a hole in the tail end of the two arrows, pass the rope through it, and pre-measure the length of the rope. When the shooting is completed, straighten the other thread and it will form a triangle shape. Then put the excess The rope is tied to the balcony and fixed.”
After speaking, Situ Xiu looked at Kuroba Kaito, waved his hand, and then said: "Mr. Doi, please use the quilt as a corpse and drop it from the slide rope in the middle."
Use a quilt as a corpse and slide down the vertical line in the middle of the balcony. First tie a rope to the quilt, roll a small loop on the rope, pass the middle rope through the small loop, and then slide down.
The crossbow is very powerful. Someone was once killed by a crossbow, so the arrow fired by the crossbow will be deeply embedded in it.
According to what Situ Xiu said, the quilt slipped next to the body.
"So this way we can leave no footprints..." Everyone looked surprised.
"But how do you recycle the rope like this?" Koizumi Hongzi asked.
"It's very simple, just tie one of the ropes left on the balcony to another arrow and shoot it with a crossbow."
Situ Xiu smiled slightly. These ropes were passed through the hole at the end of the arrow to form a triangle. They were not tied to the arrow and fixed, so the ropes were loose, which was equivalent to passing through a hole and pulling back.
"Mr. Doi, untie the ropes on the balcony and shoot them out with arrows."
The rope tied to the balcony was for fixation. According to Situ Xiu's request, Kuroba Kaito untied the rope and tied it to the arrow, and shot it with a crossbow.
Then all the ropes were like kites with their strings broken, flying out following the rope tied to the arrow.
As mentioned before, the crossbow is very powerful, and these ropes can naturally take them all away.
"It did fly away..." Everyone's eyes widened.
"How did you think of it?" Naoko Kuroda couldn't believe that a child could think of such a method.
"Actually, I didn't think about this at first. It wasn't until I saw the hole in the tree and the crossbow that I thought the murderer used such a technique."
Situ Xiu pondered for a moment. After all, he was someone who had watched Conan and had investigated cases with Conan. He could still relate to these basic operations.
The only thing he regretted was that he didn't bring the dog with him. If the dog had been there, he would have been able to find out who the murderer was by relying on his sense of smell, so there was no need to go through so much trouble.
"Who is the murderer?" Yuanzi looked at Situ Xiudao.
"Shadow Mage" Situ Xiu said softly.
"Nani~" Everyone looked confused. After all, this was not what they had guessed.
"Do you know the trumpet?" Situ Xiu smiled.
"Uh...what is a trumpet?" Xiaolan asked confused.
"..." Everyone.
"Ahem..."
Situ Xiu coughed twice and laughed dryly: "Sister Xiaolan has not yet connected to the Internet at home, so she doesn't know what a small account on the Internet means."
"Lan, it's like this..." Yuanzi explained to Xiaolan about the trumpet.
"You want to say that Shadow Mage is the trumpet of one of us?" Huang Yi frowned slightly.
"No way!" Naoko Kuroda said in surprise.
"That's right~"
Situ Xiu nodded, and then said: "You are all wondering how Shadow Mage knew what happened half a year ago. The only explanation is that he is someone's trumpet."
"I understand, Shadow Mage is that person's shield, deliberately making all of us doubt him." Koizumi Hongzi was a little surprised.
"Yes, Sister Hongzi is so smart."
Situ Xiu smiled and then said: "Because he is a person who does not exist virtually, so he did not appear today."
"You're really good at flattering." Koizumi Hongzi rolled her eyes at Situ Xiu and spoke in a voice that only she could hear.
"Whose trumpet will it be?"
Yuanzi glanced at the other three netizens on the Internet and excluded her. The only possible ones were these people.
Aragoshi and Naoko Kuroda glanced at each other, while Tanaka Takakue had an expressionless face and didn't know what he was thinking.
"It's you Tanaka Takahisae"
Situ Xiu stretched out his hand and pointed at Tanaka Takahisa.
"What~" Everyone looked shocked.
"What are you talking about? What evidence do you have to prove that it's me?" Tanaka Takahisa looked at Situ Xiudao angrily.
"The proof is Yikasama Boy. The real Yikasama Boy is Harui Fuden, and you are just a fake."
Situ Xiu said with a serious face.
Ever since he heard Kaitou Kid's story, he had always thought that the real Yikasama Douji was Harui Fuden.
"No way." Everyone was stunned.
Without waiting for Tanaka Takahisae to quibble, Situ Xiu continued: "A month ago, Harui Fuden died in an accident. Why did he come out to perform escape magic when he had obviously retired? The only possibility is that the discussion half a year ago was Harui Fuden. I am chatting with you as Yikasama Doji, and this online name is also the stage name used by Harui Fuden when he first appeared on the stage."
"This..." Arayoshi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He had originally suspected that Yikasama-douji was Harui Fuden, but after seeing Tanaka Takahisuke, he eliminated this suspicion.
The rest of the people looked at Tanaka Takahisa. If what Situ Xiu said was true, what was the relationship between Tanaka Takahisa and Harui Fuden, and why did he have the account of Yikasama Doji?
"Please recall how long it has been since Yikasama Boy has contacted you, whether his words have changed during the chat, and whether Shadow Mage joined the discussion group after the death of Master Harui Fuden."
Situ Xiu said calmly.
"It seems a little different," Yuanzi frowned.
Naoko Kuroda thought for a moment and said, "Shadow Mage joined us not long ago. Indeed, as you said, he contacted us after the death of Master Harui Fuden."
"Miss Tanaka..." Arayoshi looked at Tanaka Takakue and said.
"What can a shadow mage alone mean? When Mr. Hamano died, I was still boiling bath water, and I was also attacked with a bow and arrow just now."
Tanaka Takakue said expressionlessly.
"You can boil water in advance, because the magic is part of your original plan..."
Situ Xiu paused, looked directly at Tanaka Takahise, and then said: "You took advantage of Mr. Hamano's trust in you. After drawing the symbols in the garden, you replaced those notes. The so-called magic prophecy was just that you secretly You need help to succeed, you are just a loser."
"Haha..." Kuroba Kaito chuckled. This little kid's aura is so full that people can't help but walk in step by step.
"So that's it..." Sonoko was a little surprised. No wonder Hamano Toshiya guessed it right.
"That's not right, Mr. Hamano didn't guess correctly in the end." Xiaolan looked at Situ Xiudao in confusion.
"..." The corners of Situ Xiu's mouth twitched. Sister, of course you didn't guess correctly. If you guessed correctly, you wouldn't die.
Koizumi Anko quickly explained to Xiaolan: "Xiaoran, the reason I didn't guess correctly in the end was because the murderer wanted Mr. Hamano to stay alone in the room, so it was not Mr. Doi, but Mr. Hamano."
"Ah..." Xiaolan just realized what she was doing, and quickly covered her mouth, lowering her head in embarrassment, with a slight blush on her face.
Silly and sweet!
Kuroba Kaito shook his head. He had nothing to do with this kind of girl. She looked very much like one of his classmates.
