Dr. A Li looked at the reports on the web page and said softly:
"The hot spring hotel where the murder occurred is Fuzukaya..."
"PhD?"
Ye Geng looked over.
"oh!"
Dr. Ali quickly explained:
"I met the owner of Poirot Coffee Shop before I went out. When I was chatting, I heard him say that he happened to go to the hot spring there last month with people from the town meeting. The boss also said that it was a pity that the Maori guy was drunk and didn't go, otherwise They can listen to a famous detective talk about his reasoning."
Hearing this, Conan recalled from beginning to end the date when his servant got drunk last month. After depressingly discovering that he had no specific idea due to too many times, he could only ask aloud:
"Doctor, could it be that the day they went to the hot springs happened to be the 14th of last month?"
Dr. A Li thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This... the owner of Poirot Coffee Shop didn't say anything."
"What about the participants?!" Conan asked again.
A suicide that apparently occurred in a secret room was suspected to be homicide...
Conan was a little dissatisfied with the details of the case and felt that some important clues had been missed.
"This has!"
Dr. A Li took out his mobile phone and looked for photos: "The boss sent me a copy of the group photo at that time."
"Show me!"
Conan took the phone, compared the group photo with the reports on the website, and after a moment he breathed out:
"Great! They are indeed together. Doctor, please go to the town meeting now. Their addresses and contact information should be registered there. Ask them about the words and deeds of these three suspects before and after the crime."
"good."
Dr. A Li responded, picked up the keys and coat and walked quickly to the yard.
"We're here to help, too." The three little figures followed suit.
"Oh, no, I forgot to remind the doctor not to go to Poirot's Café!" Conan seemed to have remembered something again and hurriedly chased after him.
This kid has begun to fall into a vicious circle again and must find out the truth of the case...
Ye Geng glanced towards the entrance and casually placed the A4 paper with news reports on the table.
"What should we do now?" Haiyuan Ai asked.
"Wait." Ye Gengyi said one word simply.
Huiyuan Ai was startled and said hesitantly: "Wait...what?"
"Wait for the sniper." Ye Gengyi said: "The rooftop opposite the office is an excellent sniper spot. At such a distance, a sniper can't miss with his eyes closed. There are plenty of opportunities to kill people before dawn."
"You... you're not joking, are you?" Haiyuan Ai was surprised.
"oh."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly: "Closing your eyes is an exaggeration. In fact, you still have to pull the trigger with your eyes open."
"..."
Hui Yuan Ai was speechless for a moment, "There is just... no other way?"
“Why should we play with the odds before there is a clear way to deal with it?”
Ye Gengyi said:
“Although news reports are full of content optimization and certain people’s tendency to guide topics, they usually do not change the results... combined with what is written above..."
He glanced at the A4 paper that had been placed on the table and said calmly:
"The facts are obvious. Zeli Xun does not believe that Zeli Weihong committed suicide, so the answer he wants is that the murderer is among those three people."
"Well……"
Hui Yuan Ai's breath was stagnant.
She understood what Ye Gengyi meant.
To put it simply, the truth is in line with Zelixun's expectations. He might shoot one person, and then use a bomb as a coercion to continue fleeing or commit suicide on the spot. If the truth is not in line with Zelixun's expectations, then he will directly detonate the bomb after an emotional breakdown. , or kneeling down to repent, no one knows.
Therefore, the key to the current problem has never been who the real murderer is, but how to prevent Zelixun from detonating the bomb.
"Then... Doctor and the others..." Hui Yuan Ai looked at the entrance and hesitated to speak.
"Since the doctor has called the police, it is necessary to collect clues. With things like this, there must be an explanation whether it is suicide or homicide. As for Zeli Xun who wants to find out the truth so much, he should have told the Gunma County police about his feelings. Suspicion, but... after all, it’s that Yamamura Cao, so it’s not surprising how the case will be handled.”
After Ye Gengyi analyzed the pros and cons, he continued:
"I'll go to the scene and take a look. You can check it out slowly."
To be honest, he still hasn't understood the logic of Zelixun's behavior.
Because of the investigation results of the Gunma Prefectural Police, you no longer intend to trust the police?
Then why go to the office to use coercion + truth-finding...
The basic logic, shouldn't it be that after losing trust in the police, you should come to Mouri Kogoro with clues, and then choose follow-up actions based on the results of the inference?
"Brother Gengyi, do you want to go out too?"
After telling Dr. A Li and others not to go near the office, Conan just arrived at the entrance and saw Ye Gengyi putting on his coat.
"Well, let's go out."
Ye Gengyi answered the question in the affirmative, without giving the other party a chance to continue asking, and passed him by.
"..."
Conan had no choice but to quickly come to the sofa and ask Haiyuan Ai, who was still operating his laptop, the topic he cared about more:
"When I went out, there was no news from the phone, right?"
"Well... now I can only hear the sound of paper turning and pacing back and forth."
Haibara Ai said: "It should be Zeuri Xun who is waiting for Detective Mori to reason."
"Huh... I hope the doctor can gain something."
Conan breathed out.
In this season, the time of dawn is about 6 o'clock. Although there is not enough time, at least it is not that urgent.
"correct……"
Looking across the coffee pot on the table, Conan thought of something again and continued:
"What did Brother Gengyi do?"
"..."
Haibara Ai briefly recalled, and then realized that Ye Gengyi didn't seem to specifically mention the words to keep this detective boy a secret.
That's right... After Saraichi-san goes out, Edogawa will not only ask questions, but will also revert to a 'Kudo Shinichi'-style detective.
If Brother Gengyi wants to keep it secret, he will never forget to remind me. Therefore, he means that it is okay to answer directly or pretend not to know.
Think about this.
Haiyuan Ai suddenly remembered Ye Gengyi's previous arrangement of "If you don't obey, just do whatever you want" to Conan.
I understand... Brother Sarada is asking me to tell Edogawa directly.
That person must have understood a long time ago that when the detective agency was hijacked by bombers, Edogawa would never wait for the development of the matter, so he simply let the other party do whatever he wanted...
Really, next time something like this happens, why don’t you just say that you will do it? Do you really think that everyone can figure things out quickly after seeing complicated things like him?
Haiyuan Ai took a breath, silently cursed, then looked into Conan's eyes and said:
"on site."
