Although Eryumi believes that "Conclusion" may be an unfinished manuscript by Kyousuke Maijo.
But the big clock in the room, the elevated chair, and the death of the Little Needle leader, these interesting mysteries still fascinated Jiang Liumei.
Anyway, I was idle, and I didn’t want to disturb Maijo Keisuke’s sweet dream, so I opened the last chapter of "Conclusion"...
The leader of Little Needle was shot dead, which caused the believers to be very sad.
Everyone had a gloomy face and said their last prayers for the little needle leader.
Mercator was no longer interested in investigating. Anyway, as long as he spent tonight, the police would have nothing to do with him when they came to the island tomorrow, so he went back to his room early.
Mikuo felt bored by herself. She followed Mercator to the island and encountered such a bad thing, so she planned to chat with Mercator.
Because Miubao doesn't believe that the female nanny Aoyama is the murderer. After all, the female nanny Aoyama just wants to get back the "Book of Blessings" and there is no need to kill the little needle leader.
With doubts, Miubao opened Mercator's door.
In the room, Mercator was sitting on a chair, holding a wine glass in one hand, listening to the piano music played on the radio, very comfortable.
"Is she a prisoner?"
Mibago asked Mercator.
Although Mercator did not answer Mibago’s question.
However, based on the experience of getting along with Mercator day and night, Miubao clearly knows that the female nanny Aoyama is definitely not the murderer, so the murderer must be someone else!
"Mair, although the truth will be revealed tomorrow, as a detective, do you really not intend to catch the murderer?"
Mibago questioned Mercator again.
Mercator remained calm and composed, but his tone was a little irritable.
"Things have begun to come to an end!"
"The client has also changed from Xiao Zhen to Bai Shan. I have communicated with Bai Shan and he will give me the money, including the "Katrina Sutra", so Xiao Zhen's death has nothing to do with me."
Mibago couldn't stand Mercator's bad behavior and reprimanded Mercator:
"You are such a bad guy, but if the case turns bad and the murderer escapes with the "Katrina Sutra" that you cherish so much, what should you do?"
When Mercator heard what Mikuo said, he shrugged and said with a bad smile:
"Don't worry, the Katrina Sutra will not be stolen and the prisoner will not escape."
Seeing Mercato's determination, Miubao felt that something was a little strange, because the whole case was confusing and she didn't see any clues at all:
"Mair, from your tone, you should know who the murderer is, right?"
"How else would you know that the murderer would not steal the Katrina Sutra or escape?"
Mercator took a sip of wine and began to reason about the entire case.
"At first I saw that the big clock in the holy room was deliberately placed on the ground. I didn't understand the murderer's intention. The same was true for the reference book that had been placed on the chair."
"Why did the murderer put the reference book on the chair? If not to look at the top of the bookcase, what's the point?"
"However, when I saw Xiaozhen's body today, I connected everything."
"If the murderer planned to stage the victim's death as a suicide, then he would have sat the victim in a chair facing the table and hit him right in the temple."
"It would be great if the bullet went through the head and hit the wall on the left, but what if there was a big bell there? It would make a loud noise for other believers to hear."
"And following the victim and lowering the bell together will naturally arouse the victim's suspicion, so we can only lower the bell in advance and then bring the victim into the holy room."
Mercator kept talking a lot, but Miukuro couldn't understand it at all.
He also asked about the smoke reaction on the hands of the deceased after committing suicide.
The answer given by Mercator is very simple. You only need to put the gun in the victim's hand, fire it into the sea, and pick up the bullet casing to fake a new smoke reaction.
Mikuo felt confused about Mercator's words and didn't understand what Mercator was talking about. She just asked the murderer why he removed the body of the Little Needle Leader.
Yoko said it was because the murderer didn't find the key, which is obviously untrue.
Mercator pointed his finger in the direction of Butler Baishan’s room and smiled:
"Mibago, the reason is very simple! If a murder occurs outside your window and the body is outside your window, even if the body is moved away, it will still make people feel eerie. After all, no one wants to see the murder scene."
"So, the reason why the murderer dragged Xiao Zhen's body to the gravel road was to stop the housekeeper Bai Shan from looking at the gravel road!"
"Because someone died outside the window, Baishan didn't want to see the murder scene, so he would choose to close the curtains to stay out of sight and out of mind."
"In this case, the murderer can take advantage of the night and lead others to the holy room without being discovered by the butler Bai Shan!"
"Then... kill someone in the Holy Chamber and disguise the murder as a suicide!"
Mibagu showed a look of horror on her face when she heard Mercator's words:
"Will there be another murder?"
Mercator turned down the volume of the radio without panic and continued to answer:
"The murderer decided to kill two people from the beginning. If the person he wanted to kill was Xiao Zhen, then he should have disguised Xiao Zhen as a suicide, but the cause of Xiao Zhen's death was obviously murder."
"So the murderer's real idea was to kill Xiao Zhen first, then kill the second victim and disguise it as a suicide, making everyone think that the victim killed Xiao Zhen and then committed suicide out of fear of guilt."
"The hair in the little needle's mouth is proof that the murderer framed the victim."
"In this case, even if the police come to the island tomorrow, it will be completely meaningless because the 'murderer' has already committed suicide."
Miukuro is not in the mood to listen to Mercator's nonsense, because so far, Mercator has not been able to produce any evidence:
"So? Mel! Who is the murderer?"
Mercator sighed with some trouble:
"Instead of guessing the murderer, it's easier to guess the victim."
"Remember the reference book on the chair?"
"It was used by the murderer for simulation. After the murderer put down the big clock, he needed to simulate the murder scene."
"In addition to being able to step on it, that reference book can also be used to sit on."
"As for why the murderer did this? Because the thickness of the reference book is five centimeters."
"After using the tool book on the pad, the murderer can look level with the victim, ensuring that the pistol can accurately hit the victim's temple."
"It can be concluded from this that the murderer's sitting height was five centimeters shorter than the victim."
"Because believers have similar body shapes, and a person's sitting height is about 50 percent of the body, the victim should actually be ten centimeters taller than the murderer."
"If you think about it carefully, you can find a problem. Hiroshi Sekiya's height is 185, Infield is 175, Hakuyama is 170, Yoko is 165, Aoyama is also 165, Terao is 155, and finally Naomi Maki is 150."
Mercator pointed to his right temple and continued to answer:
"Since the murderer was worried that the bullet would hit the big clock on the left side, this proves that the murderer intended to penetrate the victim's temple from the right side and disguise the victim's suicide."
"And the female nanny Aoyama is left-handed. If you want to pretend to be a victim who died of suicide, you must first exclude Aoyama, because if the person you want to kill is Aoyama, you should pretend to shoot to the left, so that there is no lower level. The bell is necessary."
"The murderer dragged Xiao Zhen's body to the gravel road, obviously to ask Bai Shan to close the curtains, so Bai Shan was not the victim."
"The murderer deliberately stuffed black hair into Xiaozhen's mouth to make it look like the victim committed suicide out of fear of crime. This means that the victim has black hair, so the brown-haired Terao is not the victim!"
"And based on the evidence that there is a 10 centimeter height difference between the victim and the murderer, no one is ten centimeters shorter than Naomi, so the shortest Naomi is not the victim."
"Then the only possible victims are Yoko at 165, Uchino at 175, and Hiroshi Sekiya at 185!"
When Eryumi saw this, she was completely shocked by Maijo Kyousuke's furious line recovery!
At the same time, I couldn't help but laugh bitterly. What is the unfinished manuscript of "Conclusion"?
This is clearly a work with hidden secrets, precise logical layout, and ingenious structure of misleading design!
The design and capability of this volt wire recycling alone can almost be said to be unparalleled in the Japanese literary world!
The whole story is a huge mystery, and the answer lies in the last two pages of paper in my hand!
