My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 706: The absence of physical evidence is actually the biggest evidence!

Kogoro Mori's proud expression of "it's all my credit" made Aoki Matsu and other people who knew the situation feel helpless.

I don’t know who the person was who was reluctant to give up his rented car.

"I'm just following Brother Aoki's instructions." Toyama Kazuha stood behind Kogoro Mori and spoke silently, exposing him.

Kogoro Mori quickly looked up at the sky, pretending he didn't hear anything.

Upon hearing this, Sato Miwako looked at Maori Kogoro and Aoki Matsu and asked, "Inspector Aoki, were you the first ones to discover the body?"

Aoki Matsu shook his head, "No, it's Miss Mizobata."

Everyone subconsciously looked towards Mizobata Riko upon hearing this. Riko quickly explained, "Because I also thought Junping's car was a little strange, so I immediately stopped the car behind and chased after him to take a look."

Gao Mushi was a little puzzled when he heard this and said, "But, assuming that what the three of them said is true, it sounds like there is no chance of strangling the victim..."

Aoki Matsu said: "It seems that we still need to carefully search the car that the victim was riding in at the time to see if there is any outrageous method of committing the crime. At that time, I thought about stopping the suspicious vehicle first, and did not search it carefully."

Miwako Sato agreed and said, "We should indeed search the vehicle the victim was riding in thoroughly."

Maori Kogoro heard this and quickly said, "I want to go too."

Aoki Matsu ignored him and looked at Takagi Wataru and ordered: "Takagi, go and unblock the toll booth and stay here with the three people here."

Upon hearing this, Takagi Wataru quickly responded, "Yes!"

Arriving at the victim's vehicle, Sato Miwako took one look and said in shock, "Are you kidding me? Is the car really driven that way?"

Qing Musong nodded. "It's incredible, so I immediately asked Uncle Maori to stop the car."

Then the two of them took photos and then examined it carefully.

The first thing was the car door. Aoki Song took a quick look and found the problem. "Sato, look here, there are these fine marks on the sealing strip beside the window. It looks like something has been pulled from the outside."

Maori Kogoro also came over to take a look and frowned, saying, "Could it be that the murderer first put a rope around the victim's neck, and then strangled him to death from another car running parallel to the victim? How is this possible!"

"That's impossible." Qing Musong rolled his eyes. "To strangle a person, you need to apply pressure continuously for at least three minutes. Judging from these fine marks, the murder weapon is most likely something like fishing line. However, if the force generated by the vehicle is huge, the head would have been strangled before the person died, just like the roller coaster murder case that happened before I became a criminal."

Miwako Sato frowned upon hearing this and said to herself, "This is really a headache! How on earth can one strangle the victim's neck in another car and continue strangling him with almost the same force for three minutes while driving?"

"There's more to it than that. Look at this car window. The wind is so strong on the highway, but the car's window is completely open. This is very abnormal." Qing Musong pointed at the car window and said, "I'm sure that this window was already open when the car was driving."

Miwako Sato looked toward the car window and noticed that the ashtray inside the car was full of cigarette butts. She thought for a moment and said, "Could it be because the victim was a heavy smoker? Look, the ashtray is full of cigarette butts, and he kept the window open from time to time to let the smoke out."

"But the wind is very strong when driving at high speed." Kogoro Mouri interrupted, "The car window should just be opened a little bit at the top." As an old smoker, Kogoro Mouri has a say in this matter.

Miwako Sato asked, "How much is it if I open it a little bit?"

"As long as the smoke can be dispersed, it will be fine." After saying this, Kogoro Mouri took out a handkerchief, opened the car door, and reached out to roll up the window.

At this moment, Aoki Matsu and Sato Miwako both noticed two abnormalities under the car window glass, with two small holes suddenly appearing there.

"Little hole!" Sato Miwako said immediately.

Aoki Matsu nodded and said, "There are two holes at the bottom of the car window glass." This made Aoki Matsu immediately certain that the method of committing the crime must be fishing line.

A "fishing line + car" murder case is a case of this type that Aoki Matsu has handled before.

Thinking of the fishing line, Aoki Matsu quickly asked Maori Kogoro to leave the car door, and he went in to look for it himself, but he couldn't find the murderous fishing line.

In this way...

The absence of physical evidence is actually the biggest evidence!!!

"Sato, call Takagi and ask him to bring the three suspects here. I already know who the murderer is!" Aoki Matsu said to Sato Miwako.

Miwako Sato's eyes lit up when she heard that. "Really? Great, I'll call right away."

Not long after, Takagi Wataru came with three suspects, as well as Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha.

Aoki Matsu looked at Mizobata Riko, Tadashi Tadashi, and Shimojima Taishi and directly concluded, "The victim was strangled to death."

"What!?" Atsuo Zhongtian looked at Aoki Matsu in surprise with an expression of disbelief on his face. "He was strangled to death? And in a moving vehicle."

"Yes!" Mizobata Riko also echoed.

"It is possible to do it. As long as we make the victim do that action while driving, we can achieve the purpose of killing him." Aoki Matsu said to the three people.

Upon hearing this, Shimojima Taizhi asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Do, do an action, what action is it?"

Mizobata Riko echoed the sentiment with a speechless tone: "This is ridiculous. What can you do while driving at high speed?"

Qing Mu Song pointed to the car driven by the victim and said: "Just use the two small holes under the driver's window."

Upon hearing this, Atsuo Tadao subconsciously came over to take a look, and said, "What small hole?" After seeing it clearly, his face was full of surprise!

"The murderer's method was very simple. He first put the two ends of a thin but tough fishing line through the two holes and put it into the car. Then he passed the two ends of the line through the gap in the pillow from the back, and then passed the other end through the back of the victim's tie and tied it to the other end.

Finally, once the victim opens the electric window, the fishing line will be pulled up and the neck will be automatically tightened. The automatic window next to the driver's seat will not stop until the window is fully opened. "Aoki Song said.

But after hearing what Aoki Matsu said, Zhongtian Atsuo had a question: "But officer, how can we make him open the window by himself? I just overtook him from behind!"

Shimojima Taishi also said, "I only honked the horn twice afterwards! The first time was because Junping's car suddenly slowed down, and the second time was because he wanted to overtake and catch up with Mr. Tadada's car."

Mizobata Riko also said at this time: "It has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything."

"Did you really do nothing?" Aoki Matsu looked at Mizobata Riko and asked seriously, "Didn't you also slow down?"

Mizobata Riko's heart tightened when she heard this.

"It's because you were driving in front of the victim's car and took the lead in slowing down, so the victim also slowed down. Then he thought something might have happened to you, so he drove into the overtaking lane and drove right next to your car." Aoki Matsu looked at her and said.

Mizobata Riko felt guilty when she heard this and loudly retorted, "Wait a minute, are you saying that I yelled at Junping to open the window at that time?" Then she looked at the other two people standing by and asked, "Tell me, did I yell like that?"

"This..." Taishi Shimojima couldn't remember such details at all, so he didn't dare to speak carelessly, nor did he dare to guarantee Mizobata Riko.

Aoki Matsu looked at Mizobata Riko and said, "You don't need to shout. Just look at the victim driving next to you with a very anxious expression and pretend to shout. That's enough."

Gao Mushi suddenly realized what was going on. "I see."

"I opened the window just to hear her voice." Sato Miwako said with a look of sudden enlightenment.

Aoki Matsu nodded. "That's right. The only person who could have committed this crime was Miss Mizobata, the victim's girlfriend. The time to prepare in advance should have been when the victim was taking a nap at the rest stop. You asked him to give you the car keys under the pretext of waking him up."

"I see." Maori Kogoro also reacted at this time, "And most likely the victim was given sleeping pills beforehand."

"The hole in the car window was probably made before the drive. The victim kept the window open to let the smoke out of the car, so the hole was covered and cannot be seen," Aoki Matsu continued.

Mizobata Riko was silent for a moment, then looked at Aoki Matsu and asked, "Where's the evidence? If you insist that it was me, do you have any evidence?"

Qing Musong looked at her and said, "We didn't find the fishing line that killed the victim in this car. When we stopped the victim's car, you were the first one to run over. Then Detective Maori and I came over to check. During this time, you were alone next to the driver's seat.

Only you, who arrived at the deceased's side earlier than anyone else, could successfully retrieve the fishing line that was the murder weapon. And since then, you have been with our police and have been under our police's noses. You should not have had the time or opportunity to throw away the fishing line. If we search your body and your car, we should be able to find the fishing line stained with the victim's blood."

Upon hearing this, Riko Mizobata showed a panic expression on her face and subconsciously lowered her head, not wanting anyone to see her expression.

Seeing this, Sato Miwako immediately understood what was going on. She walked up to Mizobata Riko and said, "Ms. Mizobata, please cooperate with me."

As he said that, he reached out and prepared to search Duan Lizi's body.

But unexpectedly, Mizobata Riko dodged it. Just when Sato Miwako frowned and wanted to say something, Mizobata Riko lowered her head and said with a pale face, "The fishing line, chloroform, and ammonia are all in my car."

After hearing this, everyone present understood that the murderer was Mizobata Riko!

After saying this, Mizobata Riko seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden. Her whole body softened all of a sudden, and her originally fierce face became gentler.

"Officer, you are right. It was me who killed Jun Ping while holding the steering wheel of the car... Yes, just like A Zhang who died while holding the steering wheel." Mizobata Riko suddenly became sad at the end.

"A Zhang?" Shimojima Taizhi cried out in surprise. He stared at Mizobata Riko in disbelief, his eyes full of grief and anger. He asked anxiously, "Are you talking about my son A Zhang?"

"Yes." Mizobata Riko looked at Shimojima Taishi and said, "I threw myself from Junping's arms to Zhang not long after Junping lost to Zhang in the battle of the mountain road, because I always like the fastest people."

Atsuo Zhongtian sneered when he heard this: "So that's how it is. His girlfriend was robbed. No wonder Junping couldn't swallow this humiliation and set up that trap in the car race on that rainy day, right?"

Upon hearing this, Mizobata Riko shouted excitedly, "It wasn't just rainy, it was a storm! The weather was so bad that day that it was impossible to race! But Jun Ping still deliberately provoked A Zhang, even though he knew it was extremely dangerous. As expected, A Zhang's car slipped and lost control due to the heavy rain on the road, and he and his car rolled down to the bottom of the valley..."

"But I think the two are equally matched!" Maori Kogoro suddenly interrupted at this time: "The provoked party knows that there are risks in doing so, and the provoking party also becomes serious because he has to take responsibility, right?"

"Will this man take responsibility?" Mizobata Riko seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. She stared at Maori Kogoro with wide eyes, her voice trembling with anger. "Don't talk nonsense. He is just pretending."

At this time, Shimojima Taishi agreed with Mizobata Riko's words, "I think so too."

Not only him, but also fellow drag racer Atsuo Tadada has the same idea: "Once you become a drag racer, you will never give up until you die."

"So I tried to stop him at that time." Mizobata Riko said angrily: "This cold-blooded red mountain road devil, let him never drive again!"

Qing Musong shook his head at this time and said: "But in this matter, I think he must really regret it."

Mizobata Riko was suspicious when she heard this and asked sternly, "Why? What makes you say he regrets it?"

In Riko Mizobata's eyes, there is no way the other party would regret it.
