The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 186 Searching for the murder weapon

"This kind of sewing material is solid, about five centimeters long, and its diameter must be less than 0.1 centimeter. It is the best weapon!"

Kogoro Maori said this with full confidence.

However, this time, as soon as I said it, I was refuted by Yashiro Kazueda.

"What are you doing? Five centimeters, if it's all in, how are you going to pull it out?"

This time, even Inspector Megure seemed to have remained awake.

"Yes, brother Maori, this person's skin is quite thick. If there were no auxiliary tools like a thimble, it would be impossible to insert the sewing needle so deeply."

"Ha, ha, that's true."

Kogoro Mori also realized the naivety of his thoughts, so he quickly changed his words.

At this time, Hakuba Matsu finished what Kogoro Mori said, and then looked at Hiroaki Nishitani carefully.

Apart from Xiaolan and Sato Miwako, the only four people in front of him were suspects.

However, Yuko Komiyama left again halfway through.

Unless she used some tricks, it would be impossible to assassinate Kamimori Michi from outside.

Judging from the current situation, in the darkness, it is impossible to predict what actions Kamimori Michi will take, so mechanisms can be ruled out.

From this point of view, Yuko Komiyama's suspicion can be ruled out.

The only people left were Nishitani Hiroaki, Yashiro Kazue, and Kamimori Kaoru.

Coincidentally, Kogoro Mori also selected the other two people besides Hiroaki Nishitani, namely Kaoru Kamimori and Kazue Yashiro.

According to the Mori method of elimination in science, the murderer identified by Kogoro Mori is most likely not the murderer in the end.

From this perspective, the murderer can only be Hiroaki Nishitani.

Although the gross profit elimination method is unscientific, it is very scientific.

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

Anyway, it doesn't hurt to pay a little more attention to one person.

After taking a look, Bai Masong's eyes were focused on Nishitani Hongming's ring.

Bai Masong smiled secretly in his heart. He already knew the method of the case, and the murderer should be identified without a doubt.

He found Conan and asked him,

"Conan, during the time you were here, did Hiroaki Nishitani do anything strange?"

Hiroaki Nishitani?

Conan was a little confused. Why did he ask him?

Could it be that Bai Masong thought that Nishitani Hiroaki was most likely the murderer?

why?

Although he was confused, Conan still answered honestly,

"There is one strange thing. When Mr. Nishitani came out of the restroom, he seemed to have mistaken Xiaolan for Miss Yuko."

Got the wrong person?

Bai Masong thought about it and suddenly remembered something.

So that's how it is. The murderer must have used that method.

If you think about it this way, it is understandable that Hiroaki Nishitani can quickly adapt to the darkness at night.

After Bai Masong figured out how Hiroaki Nishitani adapted to the darkness, he left the kitchen alone.

Before leaving, he whispered to Officer Megure and asked them to send someone to check the personal belongings of everyone present.

Pay special attention and focus on checking Hiroaki Nishitani's.

Inspector Megure also nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Bai Masong followed Conan's instructions and went all the way to the toilet, then walked out from the back door behind the toilet.

Walked all the way to the back of the toilet.

This is still the yard of Michito Kamimori's house, with thick grass on the ground.

Bai Masong turned on the police flashlight and after searching for a while, he made a discovery.

Bai Ma Song discovered a box for contact lenses!

This is......

Very good, now we have the evidence, the only thing left is the murder weapon.

Bai Ma Song returned to the kitchen.

Seeing Hakuba Song coming back, Inspector Megure immediately stepped forward.

"Brother Baima,"

Officer Megure said,

"We didn't find anything in the three people's belongings."

"not found?"

Bai Masong was a little stunned. It was impossible. The murderer already knew and the murder weapon was most likely still in his possession.

After all, if this small needle is thrown around, it is more likely to be discovered.

But, since it was on him, how come he didn't find it?

Seeing Bai Ma Song's somewhat suspicious expression, Officer Megure continued,

"We have also conducted a thorough inspection of Mr. Hiroaki Nishitani, whom you requested, and indeed found nothing."

Bai Ma Song frowned and thought,

Now only the murder weapon remains, although it has not been found yet.

However, Bai Masong still firmly believed that the murder weapon must still be on him.

Among the personal belongings, there are a memo pad, a ballpoint pen, a key bag, an ID card, a card holder...

Wait, a ballpoint pen!

Bai Masong walked to the table and grabbed the ballpoint pen.

With a slight twist, open it and hold it to the light...

Knew it!

Bai Masong found a sewing needle inside the refill of a ballpoint pen!

"Officer Megure."

Hakubamatsu shouted to Inspector Megure.

Inspector Megure also looked at the ballpoint pen in Hakumasong's hand and was immediately shocked.

"This, this is..."

Inspector Megure didn't expect that after Hakubamatsu came back, he would immediately find the murder weapon!

This made him feel both surprised and ashamed.

The surprise was that the case was closed so suddenly, but the shame was that a few minutes ago, he was still swearing that there was absolutely nothing found.

Damn, the slap in the face comes so quickly.

In fact, Hakumasong did not blame Inspector Megure. After all, this kind of search work was done by the police officers below.

Or rather, it should have been done by the forensics class.

This bunch of slackers from the forensic class usually do nothing, but when they come to the crime scene, they act like they are on a vacation.

Find a place with good lighting here and take two photos. Find a place with a good angle there and take two photos.

And then... nothing happened, they just started paddling and taking a break.

It was the same this time. He himself told them clearly that there was something wrong with Hiroaki Nishitani and they needed to investigate him.

As a result, he was told in the end that Hiroaki Nishitani had not hidden anything.

What a...good-for-nothing!

Bai Masong was still secretly cursing his teammates, a group of pigs.

On the other hand, Hiroaki Nishitani almost collapsed when he saw his ballpoint pen being opened and the murder weapon being found.

I felt like I was hiding very well, so why was I discovered?

Besides, didn’t he just say that he was fine?

Why did you suddenly start focusing on yourself?

He really felt that his death was unjust!

Of course, not only him, but everyone present seemed very surprised.

Mainly, it ended a bit abruptly.

A minute ago, Inspector Megure was still saying that everyone was fine.

A minute later, Bai Masong seemed to have turned on his X-ray vision and instantly found the murder weapon hidden by Nishitani Hiroaki.

After finding the murder weapon, Bai Masong started to accuse the criminal directly.

"Mr. Nishitani, you are the murderer of Ms. Uemori Michi."

"Your method is very simple. First, you set up a timed switch to ensure a dark environment so that it would be easy for you to carry out your crime."

"You put on contact lenses in advance to adapt to the dark environment. That's why you mistook Xiaolan for Miss Yuko before."

"Your method of killing is also very simple. You use this sewing needle, and then use the silk thread, and then use the ring on your hand as a thimble."

"This way, you can easily insert the needle into Ms. Uemori's lungs."

"Afterwards, you hid the needle in the pen refill and burned the silk thread, thinking you had destroyed the evidence."

"Hiroaki Nishitani, do you have anything else to add?"

After finishing speaking, Bai Masong asked Nishitani Hongming.

"No, no more."

Nishitani Hiroaki said with a frustrated and lonely look on his face.

His motive for murder was that he liked Yuko Komiyama and wanted to avenge her for having her recipe stolen.

But, in fact, all of this is just Hiroaki Nishitani's self-admiration, and Yuko Komiyama may not really appreciate it.

Soon, Hiroaki Nishitani was also taken back to the Metropolitan Police Department by Officer Megure.
