[Sir, the team spotted a suspicious figure at 9 o'clock. 】
At this time, Ye Xiaobai's reminder brought him back to his thoughts.
As soon as Ye Geng turned his head and looked over there, he saw a man wearing a down jacket and brown trousers, sitting on the snow as if he was looking down at something.
This is... Hikawa Shogo? How come he is here?
"Xiaobai, turn on the wide-angle viewing range, synchronize the image to the retina, and focus on scanning the snow for items such as bear traps, and..."
Ye Geng turned his head and looked at the forest further away.
Hmm... This angle and height difference, calculated based on visual data, do not meet the conditions for sniping.
[Wide-angle view has been turned on. Sir, do you have any other instructions? 】
It’s nothing, let’s do this for now… It’s just a good opportunity to test it out… Ye Gengyi quickly caught up with Tono Mizuki:
"Miss Tono, do you think that's your friend over there?"
He pointed sideways in the direction of nine o'clock.
"ah?"
Tono Mizuki took off his goggles, squinted his eyes slightly and looked over there. After a moment, he said, "That jacket should be from Hikawa..."
As she said that, she waved her hand and shouted over there, "Hey! Glacier!"
"I don't think I heard it." Ye Gengyi said.
The position where he was standing was just between Moori Kogoro and Tono Mizuki.
And Hikawa Shogo is on the left hand side of their entire team, at the 9 o'clock direction that only belongs to the three of them, and remains in a halting state. Therefore, for Maori Ran, Suzuki Sonoko, and Dr. Agasa behind them, Hikawa Shogo's position is It will always be in the direction of 11 o'clock.
Therefore, even if everyone turned to look over there, Tono Mizuki, who was standing at the front and left position, should be the first to go over and check the situation.
"Strange, what is he doing alone in a place like that?" Mouri Kogoro, who was half blocked by Ye Gengyi, looked at him with a puzzled look on his face.
"Well... you guys wait a minute, I'll go over and take a look."
Tono Mizuki said as he walked towards that direction.
Um? Are you really not planning to let Mouri Kogoro explore the road first?
Ye Gengyi looked over there in silence.
According to his analysis, if there is really a trap in the snow, there is a high probability that it will target this well-known detective... Shooting and killing him directly will definitely attract the police to launch a focused investigation, but if it is just "accidentally" captured, If it bites the calf, an incapacitated detective will no longer be a threat.
While thinking, Tono Mizuki had already walked to Hikawa Shogo's side.
"Saraichi, let's go over and take a look." Mouri Kogoro said.
"Um."
Ye Gengyi softly said "Yes", turned his head and warned Dr. A Li and Haihara Ai, "Watch the children, don't follow them."
The two of them followed Mizuki Tono's footsteps, leaving a row of obvious footprints on the same side.
"Ms. Mizuki, please step back first!"
Mouri Kogoro already had a bad premonition in his heart. He reminded Tono Mizuki not to destroy the scene, and then put his hand on Hikawa Shogo's shoulder, "Mr. Hikawa? What's wrong with you? Mr. Hikawa, please speak!"
Immediately afterwards, Hikawa Shogo's body shook, and he fell to the snow with a crash.
"ah!
! "
Tono Mizuki screamed in panic.
"No way……"
Mouri Kogoro squatted down and reached out to touch Hikawa Shogo's neck. He pondered for a moment and said, "It's hopeless. He's dead... It doesn't look like he had any external injuries. Did he freeze to death? No, his clothes are intact." , is that cardioplegia? Uh, that..."
The tool man paused and looked at Ye Gengyi: "Gengyi, what do you think?"
Ye Gengyi looked at Tono Mizuki without comment and asked:
"Does Hikawa Shogo have a history of heart disease?"
Just like he had previously judged that Tono Mizuki would not tell lies that were too low-level and easily exposed to say that he was afraid of dark and narrow places.
If Hikawa Shogo had a heart disease, it wouldn't be a secret in this village.
"By the way! His heart has indeed been bad since he was a child..." Tono Mizuki recalled: "In the past, when we were playing outside, Hikawa's mother often came out to look for him because of this matter."
"I see... Anyway, let's call the police first."
Ye Gengyi looked at the snow piled in Hikawa Shango's hat. Judging from the traces around him, he could basically tell that these should have fallen inside when it snowed previously.
Two possibilities.
First, although it is not clear why Hikawa Shogo came here alone, he was just unlucky and died of a heart attack in the snow.
Secondly, his fellow traveler, let's assume it was Yamao Keisuke, called him here and used drugs or drugs, which caused Hikawa Shogo's heart disease to relapse.
Taking advantage of the snowstorm just now to cover up his footprints, he put on shoes with the same sole pattern as Hikawa Shogo's and walked backwards away from the scene.
"Something's wrong! His *** is missing."
Conan ran to the body, groped it up and down, and said sternly before he was beaten: "I met Mr. Hikawa at the office before. He said that because he was an insurance investigator, he always held the It was for self-defense! Now that *** is gone, it must have been taken away by someone else!"
"Do you know what he did when he went to the office?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"Uh..." Conan thought for a while and said, "It seems that Mr. Yamao wanted to know where his home sank in the reservoir, so Mr. Hikawa went to the office with him to get a map of the old Kitanosawa Village. "
Could it be that the jewelry was hidden in his previous home? Ye Geng nodded without a trace.
The conversation between the two directly caused Mouri Kogoro to express his dissatisfaction:
"More one, why did you get caught up in this kid! This is just an ordinary accident, it's an accident! Look over there! There is only one kind of shoe print on the snow, and judging from the lines on the soles, it is indeed this pair What’s left of the shoes!”
He found everyone gathered together, first pointed to the footprints left by Hikawa Shogo on the road when he came, then took out a map and drew a virtual route:
"Hikawa must have been walking alone from the village. He suddenly suffered a heart attack while passing by. No one else helped him with first aid, so he died unfortunately."
"That it?"
Conan stared at his tool man for half a month.
It's rare that Brother Yi seems to be discussing love with me. What trouble are you causing, Uncle Hu Tu!
"It must have been left in the hotel room and not brought over." Mouri Kogoro said.
"impossible!"
Conan was speechless.
As I just said, Hikawa Shogo personally admitted that he always holds a gun for self-defense!
How could such an insecure person choose to leave something like a *** casually in the room when he went out alone?
"If it is really a murder, this must be some trick used by the murderer, right?"
Suzuki Sonoko suddenly had an idea, raised her leg and stepped hard on the snow to make a shoe print, "It's like this, covering the small footprints with big footprints."
"I know! This is indeed a trick set by the murderer!"
Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized, "The murderer first killed the glacier from the lake, put on the same shoes as him, and then carried the person here and stole the other person's penis. When he went back, he only had to follow the footprints he came from. Just go back all the way backwards and that’s it!”
"Walk backwards?"
"Is this possible?"
Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko questioned in unison.
"Of course you can! I'll show you!" Mouri Kogoro said as he was told, he took off his wide snowboards and took a few steps forward.
this
In fact, this inference is not impossible, but the premise is that the steps must be smaller...
Ye Gengyi asked himself if it could be done. Among the people he knew, Kaito who could imitate in the air as if he was walking on the ground should also be able to do it.
As for Mouri Kogoro... I don't know what his physical coordination is like.
Ye Gengyi was more curious, so he simply didn't have the skills needed to correct this reasoning, and quietly watched from the sidelines.
