My neighbor's name is Conan

Seeing this scene, Mao Lilan held her forehead and said, "Really, Dad and Mom are arguing again."

Conan also looked at the two of them speechlessly, "Hehe~"

Aoki Matsu was thinking about this problem frantically in his mind.

First of all, Kogoro Mouri was right this time. The murderer was Minashiro Hasaka.

Secondly, Eri Kisaki would definitely not lie for Kaidai Hasaka. With Eri Kisaki's vigilance, it is impossible for her to fall asleep like Ayumi, Chiba and Shin, and thus have the murderer play with time.

Therefore, Ye Saka Kaidai only had 10 minutes to kill the person and deal with the body, with no extra time.

After confirming these two iron rules, all Aoki Matsu could think of was that Hasaka Minae had already thought of a way to deal with the bodies before, and had set up the mechanism before the victim and Kisaki Eri arrived, just waiting for the two to arrive.

If this is the case, 10 minutes is actually not a short time.

If Hasaka Minaeyo took advantage of the opportunity to kill the victim, Nagasaku Shiro, when he was off guard, under the pretext of cutting his hair for the last time, she could have done it, and it would not have taken a long time, just a few seconds at best and a minute or two at worst.

After that, go to the back, carry out Nagasaku Shilang's body, place it on the mechanism, then start the mechanism, and then let the mechanism operate on its own.

It doesn’t even take 10 minutes, it can be done in a few minutes.

Isn't this what happened in the case that I encountered with Hondou Eisuke before? After knocking the victim unconscious, he placed him on the mechanism, then waited for the victim to wake up and put him in a dilemma, and then he successfully killed the victim outside the door.

Therefore, as long as the mechanism is well-designed, people can be killed even if they are not at the scene.

It is completely possible for Yezaka Kaiyo to press the mechanism and then come back and hang around in front of Kisaki Eri, so that Kisaki Eri can prove her alibi.

So the key is this mechanism.

If this mechanism does not exist, then Aoki Matsu's reasoning is invalid.

According to the iron rule set by the old thief Qingshan, any crime will definitely leave clues.

So this case has become a somewhat boring and technically unsophisticated case of finding faults.

We need to find traces of those mechanisms.

As the saying goes, when someone hands you a pillow, Aoki Matsu was about to ask Hasaka Kaiyo if he could go to her shop, but unexpectedly, Hasaka Kaiyo spoke first, "Well, do you want to go to my shop?"

"Okay!" Qing Musong agreed immediately.

After arriving at the beauty salon, everyone went in.

Walking to where Hibiki Eri had sat, Aoki Matsu asked, "Is this where Attorney Hibiki sat and had Miss Hasaka cut her hair and dyed it?"

"Well, I always come here after work to have Miss Hasaka cut my hair," said Hibiki. "Today, I also made an appointment for 8pm. I arrived at the store at 8pm, and then it started. It took 10 minutes to wash my hair, 20 minutes to dye it, and then another 10 minutes to wash my hair."

Perming for 20 minutes, washing for 10 minutes, trimming for 15 minutes, washing for another 10 minutes, and trimming for 10 minutes, it took about an hour and a half, right?" At the end, Kisaki Eri looked at Hasaka Minayo.

"Ah, yes." Yezaka said

Aihara Yoji exclaimed: "You remember it very clearly!"

Kisaki Eri looked at Maori Kogoro with half-moon eyes and said helplessly, "Yes, because I have always followed this routine, and I also made an appointment with someone to have dinner together today, so I have been looking at the watch."

Aoki Matsu did not doubt what Kisaki Eri said, but he pressed for details: "So, where did Miss Yezaka go when she went out for something?"

Kisaki Eri glanced at Hasaka Kaishiro and replied, "I remember it was the time after dyeing the hair while waiting for the dye to be applied. It should be 8 minutes between 20:30 and 10:, right?"

"Yes!" Yezaka Kaiyo responded again.

It is impossible for Kisaki Eri to fall asleep while waiting for coloring, and it is indeed impossible for Kisaki Eri to make a wrong judgment in 10 minutes.

It seems that there is indeed some mechanism!

Just as Aoki Matsu was thinking this, Maori Kogoro looked at Kisaki Eri and said, "So, they really used this time to commit the crime. If we drive, it will take less than 3 minutes to get here from the scene."

Seeing that Maori Kogoro was deliberately going against her instead of reasoning rationally, Kisaki Eri angrily put her hands on her hips and said unhappily to Maori Kogoro, "I'm telling you..."

"Well, I never had a driver's license!" Yezaka Minamiyo suddenly interrupted Kisaki Eri and defended herself by saying, "I just went to the convenience store when I was throwing out the garbage."

"Throwing away garbage?" Qing Musong suddenly remembered something when he heard this.

Yezaka Kaiyo responded, "Yes, throw the trash in the trash can next to the convenience store."

"Next to the convenience store?" Aoki Song asked again, "So it's very close to here."

"Yes, it's nearby." Ye Saka Kaidai replied, and then took the initiative to say: "Do you want to go over and take a look?"

"Okay!" Aoki Matsu replied.

Go, of course.

Because Aoki Matsu suddenly remembered that the victim, Nagasaku Shiro, died of bleeding from a severed carotid artery.

Those are arteries, not veins.

If an artery is cut, blood will spurt out directly due to blood pressure.

This presents a problem.

If Yezaka Minae was standing behind Nagasaku Shiro at the time, the blood would have spurted forward and might have stained the floor, walls, and mirrors of the room.

Can Yezaka Kaishiro clean it up in such a short time?

Obviously it is impossible. We will know the answer by just spraying it with luminol reagent.

If Hasaka Minaeshiro was standing in front of Nagasaku Shiro, her body would have blocked the ground, walls and mirrors, so the blood might not have gotten on them, but the blood would have sprayed onto Hasaka Minaeshiro's body.

Then there was the matter of destroying the murder weapon and bloodstained clothing.

There was no murder weapon in the garbage pile where Nagasaku Shiro's body fell.

Would Yezaka Minamiyo keep the murder weapon in his shop?

Aoki Matsu thinks that’s not the case, and Yezaka Minaeshiro shouldn’t be that stupid.

Since she has a chance to get out, wouldn't it be safer to throw away the murder weapons and other things, making herself safer?

After all, Yasaka Minae is Nagasaku Shiro's ex-girlfriend, and her store is near Nagasaku Shiro's body, so she is a suspect. If she is a suspect, the Metropolitan Police Department can issue a search warrant for her store.

Judging from the fact that Yasaka Minae revealed her relationship with Nagasaku Shiro before and asked Kisaka Eri to be a witness to prove her alibi, Yasaka Minae knew about this.

Therefore, we need to search every corner nearby, with Minashiro Hasaka's store as the center, to see if we can find the murder weapon.

While Yezaka Kaidai was leading everyone to the back, Aoki Matsu whispered this to Maruta Ayumi and then followed.

"Please go this way, everyone." After Ye Saka Kaiyo opened the back door and walked out first, he said to the people behind him.

"It's a small path!" Qing Musong said after walking out of the back door and looking around.

Yezaka Kaidai responded, "Yes, because it's shorter this way than on the main road."

"Oh, what's this motorcycle?" Aoki Matsu asked, looking at the motorcycle parked next to the back door.

"Ah, this is something my late father left behind. I ride it normally." Hasaka Minashiro quickly explained, "I rode it just now when I went to the convenience store. I was there to buy rice."

【Buy rice? 】

Qing Musong raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

It's strange to go to a convenience store to buy rice.

Because I usually buy rice in the supermarket.

What's even more strange is buying rice so late in the evening instead of early tomorrow morning.

"That means putting the body in the back of this car..." Kogoro Mouri began to reason again.

When Eri Kisaki heard Kogoro Maori talking nonsense again, she angrily said, "You idiot!"

Being mocked by Eri Kisaki again, Maori Kogoro asked angrily: "What did you say!"

"Just putting a 90-kilogram person on the back seat is already a difficult task, and we also have to secure it and carry it out without anyone noticing. How is that possible? More importantly, in this state, how on earth are we going to carry him down and throw him away?" Kisaki Eri questioned Kogoro Mouri with an expression as if he were an idiot.

Maori Kogoro quickly retorted upon seeing this: "I, I, I was just talking about a hypothetical situation!"

[Indeed, Uncle Maori's reasoning is a bit far-fetched. The motorcycle can carry two people, and even a 200-pound fat man can carry it, but the problem is that the fat man must be alive and able to hold the waist of the person driving the car.]

Aoki Matsu had just checked the victim's body and found no signs of being tied up or dragged from behind.

It was as if, after death, someone had thrown him directly from a high altitude onto a garbage dump.

"Okay." Aoki Matsu interrupted the quarrel between Maori Kogoro and Kisaki Eri, looked at Hasaka Kaidai and asked, "Ms. Hasaka, how do I get to the convenience store?"

"Yes, if you take this fork in the road, you will reach the main road in front of the convenience store." Ye Saka said, pointing to the small road behind.

Qing Musong took a look after hearing this, then looked towards the road on the right and asked, "What about this side? I think this side is also a main road."

"That seems to be the direction of the garbage dump where the bodies were abandoned." Conan interjected after taking a few glances.

Ye Saka Kaidai hesitated for a moment before responding, "Yes."

Aoki Matsu keenly heard the hesitation of Yezaka Minae, which meant that Conan had hit the point.

That being the case...

"Then let's go to the right and take a look first." Qing Musong said as he walked towards the road on the right.

If the end of the road on the right is right above the garbage dump, it would be very easy to dispose of the body. Just throw it down.

Qing Musong walked over and came to the end of the road. Outside was indeed a garbage dump with abandoned corpses.

What surprised Aoki Song was that the garbage dump was not below the end of the road on the right, but across the road, under the two floors below.

In this case, it would be impossible to throw the body of a grown man from here to the garbage dump by hand, so the body could only be thrown onto the road below.

To throw the body so far and make it fall into the garbage dump on the second floor, there must be some kind of mechanism!

Thinking of this, Qing Musong took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and started searching the place.

Then Aoki Song discovered that there were fine lines on the bottom of the fence posts on both sides of the road. Those marks were very similar to - the marks left by piano wires!

Aoki Matsu is really familiar with the traces of old science actors such as piano wires and fishing lines!

But the question is, why are there marks of strangulation here?

In the past, when bodies were “transported” using piano wires, fishing lines, etc., they were always carried up and down the stairs, with no obstacles in between. Even in a certain snowstorm villa case, ropes were used to create a sailboat shape to “transport” bodies, with no obstacles in between.

But this case is different.

Maori Kogoro drove here and did not see the body moving in midair. There were no scratches or other marks on the body.

If the body was "transported" using a bridge made of piano wires, it would definitely be scratched when crossing the fences on both sides of the road, and the problem of the hands and feet must also be considered. However, there were no signs of binding on Nagasaku Shiro's hands and feet. If his hands and feet were stuck in the fence, he might not be able to fall into the garbage dump as desired.

What's more, this method of committing the crime cannot explain the three sounds heard by the Maori trio.

Qing Musong thought about it and ruled out the method of disposing of the body.

But Aoki Matsu was sure that the technique used by Yezaka Kaiyo must have been used by an old science actor who made use of piano wires, fishing lines, and the like.

Aoki Matsu put the matter in his heart, and after making sure there were no other clues around, he stood up and walked towards the back door of the hair salon.

"Inspector Aoki, have you found anything?" Kogoro Mouri asked hurriedly. He really wanted to save face in front of Eri Kisaki, so... since he couldn't do it himself, he relied on others.

Qing Musong shook his head. "No. At the end of the road, behind a layer of road, is the garbage dump where bodies are abandoned. It is impossible for a person to stand there and throw the body of an adult man down there."

But using institutions is different.

However, Aoki Matsu had not yet figured out what mechanism Yezaka Minato used, so he concealed the fact that he had found the clue.

Anyway...Kogoro Mori and others are useless in this matter.

The helpful Conan had already followed Aoki Matsu and discovered the trace.

However, just as he walked over, Qing Musong discovered another thing. On the other side of the back door, there was a table. On the table, there was not only an upside-down wheelchair, but also some bundled waste paper.

You should pile up the unnecessary things first and deal with them on the next large waste collection day.

Because the garbage collection in Neon is regulated by dates, and only one type of garbage is collected per day.

Aoki Song’s focus is not on the discarded garbage, but on the wheelchair!

This seems to be a good tool for transporting corpses!

In his previous life, when Aoki Song was working, he moved his office and used a wheelchair to transport his computer.

PS: It’s a true story. The author moved offices several times while working. He always used a wheelchair as a tool. He put a large cardboard box on it and then moved things. It was very convenient with an elevator and he didn’t feel tired at all.
