"You mean, the murderer deliberately made such a big hole in the wall so that the table could pass through it!"
After listening to Gao Yuan's words, Sato Miwako said with a surprised look on her face. It felt a little difficult to accept this idea for a while, while Takagi Wataru asked unexpectedly:
"Then...if that's the case, since the murderer has opened such a big hole, why didn't he move the table out?"
"Officer Takagi..."
Regarding Gao Mushe's words, Gao Yuan could not help but be stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly:
"Don't you understand yet... the table didn't need to be moved out of the other room, but the murderer made such a big hole in the wall in order to move the table outside the other room into the other room."
"Why--"
After prolonging his voice, Takagi Wataru couldn't help showing a very surprised expression, while Sato Miwako seemed to have connected all the words Takato said before and after, and asked in surprise:
"Could it be that the table has actually been made, so it should have been taken out of the other room a long time ago and placed somewhere. And the murderer was killing the deceased on the table... In other words, The murderer moved the body!”
Very concisely, Sato Miwako grasped the core issue.
In response, Gao Yuan smiled slightly, nodded seriously towards Miwako Sato, and then began to explain:
"That's right. Judging from the blood stains on the table, before the blood stains completely solidified, at least some blood stains should have dripped from the table to the ground. However, no blood stains were found at the scene of the other house, which means that it can be considered that the other house is not the second one. At the crime scene, the murderer probably killed the deceased somewhere else, and then moved the body and the table to another room after the blood stains solidified."
"But...why do you have to do such a troublesome thing?"
Takagi Sheba asked very puzzledly.
"Because, for the murderer, if the body is not moved and is discovered at the scene, it is almost equivalent to announcing the identity of the murderer."
Gao Yuan explained:
"The murderer should also understand that it is easy to leave traces by moving the body after death, but in order to prevent his identity from being exposed, the murderer had to move the body away. For this reason, the murderer must have racked his brains.
"Fortunately, the body happened to be lying on the table, and there were blood stains on the table. Therefore, as long as the table is moved together, it can be ensured to the greatest extent that the deceased's posture can be recovered without changing the posture. The body and some traces from the scene were also removed.”
Hearing this, Takagi Wataru couldn't help but stare, feeling that this idea was really amazing, while Sato Miwako kept thinking about it, but couldn't think of any way to refute this speculation.
"But then, where to move the body and the table without being suspicious has become a new problem."
At this time, Gao Yuan continued:
"The table is furniture that has been made by the deceased. Because it is very new, it should be a newly made thing. Therefore, if the table is moved to a studio in another house and makes it look unfinished, isn't it right? A good disguise?"
"But in this case, the murderer must bring the table with him to ensure that the posture of the deceased does not change. Therefore, the murderer can only move the table... But in this way..."
Sato Miwako has already begun to imagine this situation and began to analyze it.
"If we just move the table into another room, it will be too big to fit through the door of the other room!"
Takagi Wataru said as if he understood.
"That's right. If you simply take the table out of another room, you only need to fold the legs of the table, and then put the table upright, and you can move it out from the door. But now that there is a corpse on the table, of course it is impossible to move it in again with it standing upright. , this is something that cannot be accomplished no matter how hard you try..."
Gao Yuan explained in detail.
"That's why the murderer came up with the trick of drilling holes in the wall! The impossible became possible!"
Takagi Wataru was surprised.
"That's right. First, hide the table behind the villa, then take the key from the deceased's pocket to enter the villa, and lock the door for safety. Next, use a chainsaw to drill a hole in the wall."
Gao Yuan said:
"After the table was safely moved into another room, the murderer began to disguise himself. First, he cut off a section of the table legs to make the table look like it was unfinished. Then, he sprinkled paint on the door to make it appear that the murderer would There is a reasonable explanation for the motive of breaking through the wall. In the end, it was just a matter of putting the key back into the deceased's pocket, wiping off the fingerprints, and leaving the scene."
After listening to Gao Yuan's explanation, Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru thought carefully for a while, and then couldn't help but said:
"Indeed, this way all the doubts have reasonable explanations... But who is the murderer? How did Mr. Mingzhi know that there would be blood stains in the kitchen?"
As Miwako Sato said this, she couldn't help but look at the fluorescent spots on the kitchen floor caused by the luminol reaction.
Takagi Wataru also had the same question.
In this regard, Gao Yuan sighed helplessly:
"What's wrong? I've already said this, haven't you figured it out yet? When I understood that the big hole at the scene was to move the table in, I already knew it - even the table with the corpse, by virtue of It is impossible for one person to move it! Therefore, in addition to the murderer, there must be an accomplice.
"Now that the suspects have been narrowed down to the four people living in the main house, as long as we find out which two people's testimonies are obviously suspected of covering up each other, we can basically determine who the murderer is!"
"What! That means..."
After hearing what Gao Yuan said, Takagi Wataru finally figured out the key, and then instantly understood who the suspect was. However, because the choice of the suspect was so surprising, Takagi Wataru still showed an expression of disbelief.
"Yes, the murderers are Nana Yamauchi and Yuta Yamauchi."
Gao Yuan stated his conclusion straightforwardly, and then began to add:
"Of course, this is also inferred from the performance of the two people when they were questioned. But after locking them in, we can start to guess the real first scene.
"And where their identities can be revealed at once, and where the table was originally placed, the most likely place is the kitchen! Therefore, I asked you to conduct a luminol test on the kitchen. As long as it is in the The blood stains of the deceased are found here, and it can be determined that the first crime scene is the kitchen!"
With that said, Gao Yuan began to sort out the entire case in chronological order:
"Yesterday at 11 o'clock, the deceased Yamauchi Toda completed the table and put it in the kitchen. At that time, his nephew and daughter were probably watching TV in the kitchen. After that, he may have put the table The screwdriver in the pocket was left in the kitchen, or it might be because of other things, but the deceased returned to the kitchen again..."
Gao Yuan said, his tone became a little solemn——
"I'm afraid it was at that time that Mr. Toda Yamauchi bumped into the two brothers and they were doing something shameful..."
