a few minutes ago.
After exploring the avalanche section, the two returned to Fukito Villa.
Ye Geng's ear was very good, and he clearly heard the conversations of several people in the hall before entering the room.
Kyogoku Makoto on the side, standing outside the gate, was also not idle. He thought seriously for a long time and simulated in his mind more than a dozen scenarios of meeting Sonoko's "beloved".
In the end, because I lacked enough courage, I decided to observe in secret for the time being.
Of course, he had no intention of sharing this secret hidden deep in his heart.
Therefore, Ye Gengyi also pretended not to know and simply left him alone in the cold.
...
Villa, first floor.
Express your current status and needs.
Ye Gengyi went to the kitchen to make a cup of hot cocoa. When he returned to the living room, Conan was still frowning.
The photos and chocolates spanned the time when the deceased was killed into two stages.
He really didn't understand the murderer's intention of doing this.
Is it really just a special killing habit?
After killing people during the day, he sneaked into the villa to steal chocolates at night.
The risk is too great... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Ye Gengyi, leaned over and asked in a low voice:
"Brother Gengyi, you just said that the murderer gave himself an alibi. What did you mean?"
"When I was attacked, there was just the last film left in the camera..." Ye Gengyi took a sip of hot cocoa and said, "What a coincidence."
Of course, coincidence does not mean that it will never happen. Using this as a basis for reasoning is actually not rigorous.
Conan nodded and did not ask further questions.
Because this was also one of the details that made him feel inconsistent.
At this time, the video played on the TV happened to be the scene of the deceased Futagaki Yoshiki playing with the dog with a tennis ball.
Conan's eyes lit up, and he turned around and asked, "Old lady, why does that dog have to be called Saburo?"
Because if you call her Wulang, your future father-in-law will be embarrassed... Ye Gengyi turned his head and looked out the window.
In this weather, the murderer is definitely inside the villa. With Kyogoku Makoto and Mao Lilan present, he only needs to find a reason to get rid of the two gun-toting hunters, and then he can wait for the rescue team the next day.
The landlady hesitated for a moment and explained:
"Because there were two dogs of the same breed at home before, one named Taro and one named Jiro. However, after my husband and his first wife passed away, they both died not long after."
Same variety...Conan feels like he's got something key:
“Can I see old photos of them?”
"Okay, you should be able to find it in the photo album left by my husband."
The landlady thought for a moment, then turned to look at Minika Fenikawa and Riko Amari: "His previous room was the one where Mr. Futugaki lived..."
"Then let's go get it for you." After hearing this, the two of them walked upstairs together.
Conan continued to ask: "That mother-in-law...Does Sanlang have any special habits, such as going out for a walk by himself?"
"No, it almost always stays in the villa. Even when I go out, it always stays with me."
The landlady said:
"It's really smart, especially when sweeping the grave. As soon as it gets close to my husband's tombstone, it will run over in advance and sit there obediently waiting for me. But... there is one thing that is quite strange... .”
Is there really a problem... Conan's heart moved and he quickly asked: "What is it?"
"Maybe I'm overthinking it," the landlady raised her hand and pointed at Saburo's rice bowl: "If there's a heavy snowstorm outside and he can't go out, he won't eat for the whole day, but after the snowstorm passes, The next day, he will have a huge appetite again and won’t have any food left.”
"What do you want to do!"
At this time, the sound of Fukawa Miko's scolding suddenly came from the second floor.
Several people hurriedly ran up and saw Yuzo Sakemi and Sogo Itakura who were rummaging around in the room.
Mouri Kogoro took the lead and stepped forward to ask: "Hey! What are you two doing?!"
The two of them were also shocked and quickly explained the purpose of doing this, just to find clues to solve the case.
"In that case, you don't mind letting me search you, right?" Mouri Kogoro looked at the two of them. Whenever he heard the word 'no', he would immediately throw him over his shoulder.
"Of course it's no problem, but it's not good to be here, why not go to our room..." Yuzo Shuami and Hajime Itakura did not refuse.
Here, Ye Gengyi took a break from the living room. He didn't wait for someone to break in, but a search and rescue dog came with a travel bag in his mouth.
It’s strange that you can tolerate such a big noise?
Ye Gengyi came to the second floor after thinking, walked quietly to the window, looked outside...and then met a pair of eyes, staring straight into the room.
Ye Gengyi: "..."
Are you coming in?
Kyogoku Makoto: "..."
If it's not a garden, then it's okay...
After some eye contact, Kyogoku really jumped down again.
"Really, the room is so messy," the landlady muttered, walking to the bookshelf, taking down a photo album from it and flipping through a few pages, "I found it, their photos are here..."
"Mother-in-law, please let me take a look quickly!" Conan quickly came over.
"This is Jiro on the left, and Saburo on the right. The medals hanging around their necks are said to have been awarded to them by the county government when they rescued the trapped people... Huh?"
Speaking of this, the proprietress herself was a little confused, "Is this on the left just Saburo, or is this on the right just Saburo?"
Just like Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito... After Ye Gengyi walked around the messy piles of clothes, he glanced at the photo album again.
Things have become clear.
Next, we only need to find traces of the presence of another search and rescue dog, and then the interference item of chocolate placed next to the body can be eliminated directly.
The murderer is indeed that person...and only she has the opportunity to tamper with the film!
Okay, let's find a way to trick the uncle into the kitchen, and then hum hum... Conan raised a smile at the corner of his mouth: "If you just look at the photos, it seems that you can't tell the difference."
"The murderer is Gan Liazi." Ye Gengyi said.
"Eh???"
Conan froze and turned his head dullly.
Several people beside the door also looked in this direction with stunned expressions.
"You...what are you talking about? Yazi, how could she be the murderer of Eryuan?!"
After coming back to his senses, Minoko Fenikawa immediately retorted: "When Futugaki was attacked by the murderer, he took the blood-stained photo, so the murderer should be someone who had no alibi at the time!"
"I went out to take pictures of wolves, but I didn't bring enough films with me; if the shutter was pressed when I was attacked, why didn't the murderer destroy the photos that might have been taken of him? He wasn't particularly familiar with it, or the murderer himself. There is a way to put the only one film left into the camera in advance. There are so many flaws that even children can see them, and I am too lazy to list them all."
Ye Gengyi casually patted a certain big head and said, "Conan, please continue talking."
say what? You've said it all!
A certain detective looked depressed.
You'd better go find the dog yourself...
