Hijack with a gun, extract the truth, and fight back desperately.
All this happened in just a few minutes, and it was all over before everyone could recover from the shock.
Is this... over?
Seeing the dirty murderer lying on the ground, Conan's view of detectives was strongly shocked.
He stood there blankly like a fool, and while he was surprised, the expression on his face became extremely wonderful.
I originally thought that the false confession that the paper was poisonous was already contrary to my original intention of collecting evidence to deduce the truth. But... Brother Geng Yi told me clearly with practical actions that the case could still be solved like this.
…
Kojima Iwakichi's shout alerted the detectives who had just arrived backstage.
There were heavy footsteps on the stairs.
Not long after, Mumu Shisan led the team around with a serious face, and directly saw the familiar figure standing just in front of the stairs.
He was stunned and blurted out:
"Brother Gengyi, you...are here again."
again? It always feels very subtle... Ye Gengyi's fish-eyes closed, he nodded slightly and responded:
"Well, you came earlier than the police department."
Ah, this... Mumu Shisan choked.
Last time, I was the first to spit on the Maori brother. This time...well, it seems to sound reasonable...but, I am waiting for the police call, and why do you always appear at the scene at the right time? ah!
Mumu Shisan always felt a little awkward, but he also knew that now was not the time for small talk.
"cough……"
He cleared his throat and got back to business:
"Brother Gengyi, I contacted the hospital on the way here. Unfortunately... President Kojima died after resuscitation failed on the way. I heard that he slipped and fell down the stairs and hit his head. Were you at the scene at that time? ,what is going on?"
"It's not an accident. The person who pushed the deceased downstairs was the leader of the Hyakuki Night Thief Group. Fortunately, I found evidence in the deceased's office and successfully captured the real culprit before the situation worsened."
As Ye Gengyi spoke, he turned slightly to the side, took a symbolic half step back, made way for the spacious staircase, and signaled the police department to look to the other side.
The latter looked along the direction.
On a messy ground full of stains, a man wearing the uniform of a contestant of the 'Mr. Kojima Championship' was lying there with his eyes rolled back. He could vaguely see the name tag saying Contestant No. 147, Iwakichi Kojima. .
I haven’t seen any scene before ×
I have never seen this scene before√
Mu Mu Shisan felt that his brain was down for a few seconds.
"More...brother?"
He seemed to remember the way the expert from the Technical Association next to him said, 'The real murderer was successfully captured' a few seconds ago.
"President Kojima entrusted his secretary to purchase this pistol in order to retaliate for Kojima Iwakichi's home invasion and robbery six months ago. After I found it in the office, I couldn't help but keep it temporarily because the police department didn't arrive for a long time. I didn't want to investigate the case. During the process, Iwakichi Kojima was snatched away and held hostage. Fortunately, I removed the magazine in advance, but without knowing whether there were other murder weapons on the other party, I could only find the right opportunity to fight back. The work of these TV stations Everyone is an eyewitness..."
Ye Gengyi took out the SIG-P220 and handed it to Takagi Wataru, "Officer Takagi, please take this to the forensics personnel to extract the fingerprints on it."
"Yes!" As a criminal police officer, Takagi Wataru began to assist in the work quite consciously.
"Police department?" Ye Gengyi looked at Mu Mu Shisan who had been standing there for a long time.
"Ah, this, uh... brother Geng Yi, um... just be fine."
The story of what happened has been explained very clearly.
Faced with a gangster who is so vicious that he is even ready to injure or kill others with a gun, as long as the situation is true, in principle...even if he accidentally kills the criminal during the resistance process, he does not need to bear any criminal responsibility.
Therefore, Megure Thirteen just asked the forensic officer to confirm the condition of Kojima Iwakichi. After learning that the other party was just unconscious and not life-threatening, he directly waved his hand and asked the TV station for a lounge, and asked the TV station for a rest room. Personnel and witnesses were interviewed one by one.
What happened in the corridor was basically consistent with what Ye Gengyi said.
But in fact, because Kojima Iwakichi had already run away for some distance at that time, the witnesses did not even accurately hear the content of Ye Gengyi’s conversation with the other party. In most cases, they only saw it through their eyes and then combined it with their subjective assumptions. Just give an answer.
After all, even Kojima Iwakichi himself would probably not notice any problems with Ye Gengyi's behavior of deliberately creating psychological pressure and sending the pistol out.
So the truth that everyone saw was that after Ye Gengyi found out the real culprit who killed President Kojima, the murderer tried to take the hostages and fled the scene, but was eventually subdued.
Of course, these people do not include a certain detective boy.
"Brother Sarada, he probably deliberately used the pistol as bait to trick Kojima Iwakichi into admitting that he is the leader of the Hyakuki Yakou bandit group, right?"
Conan thought silently, but he did not tell Megure Thirteen about this unsubstantiated speculation.
He felt something was wrong. In fact, he remembered that Ye Gengyi had loaded a pistol in President Kojima's office.
"That bullet can't be taken out just by ejecting the magazine. You also have to remove the slider on it."
"In other words, Brother Geng Yi had already planned the method of eliciting a confession, so he put the pistol back in after taking out the bullet from the chamber."
"Well, of course, it's also possible that he just wanted to scare Kojima Iwakichi with the pistol and took safety measures in advance to prevent the gun from going off. Is it really just an accident that the pistol was robbed?"
"But... if it was an accident, would Brother Geng Yi make such a mistake with his character? No... no one can avoid making mistakes. Even if Brother Geng Yi makes one or two mistakes occasionally, is it normal?"
Conan, who was stuck in the "Guess which floor I am on", scratched his head in distress and looked over there at Ye Gengyi, who was talking to Mumu Shisan and seemed to be saying goodbye to him.
"well……"
He sighed and finally gave up trying to force the other party to tell the truth.
After all, the whole case is basically over by now. No matter how full of justice and curiosity he is, he corrects Ye Gengyi's 'unintentional' to 'intentional'. At most, the police can only treat such a skilled person. One or two verbal criticisms of bold behavior will have no impact on the overall situation.
Moreover, this is the case where Brother Geng admits it. If others don’t admit it...
"hiss……"
Conan shuddered, feeling that if he did that, not only would he not get an accurate answer, but he would definitely be beaten if he turned around.
