Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan

"I think what I said is correct, right? Lei."

Conan Edogawa's voice was filled with depression and disappointment, but Ray Curtis, who was eager to explain himself, didn't hear these emotions at all.

Ray Curtis forced himself to calm down, and suddenly smiled: "You told this story really well! But, kid, you forgot one thing!"

"There is a mistake in it," he said complacently, "that is, from the time I turned on the light to the time I heard the gunshot, there was less than 3 seconds. How could I, huh, kill someone in such a short time?"

Ray Curtis counted on his fingers the impossible things to do: "I have to play football, knock on Ed's door, and wait for Ed to come out and open the door. Ha, three seconds is real..."

When Edogawa Conan heard Ray Curtis say that his reasoning was wrong, he looked up at him with a hint of inexplicable expectation.

However, he only heard Ray Curtis's futile excuses. Edogawa Conan frowned again and despised his own unnecessary expectations.

Conan Edogawa was getting increasingly annoyed. He didn't want to hear any more of Ray Curtis's excuses, so he interrupted him, just like he had done countless times before when he broke the murderers' lucky hopes: "You didn't knock on the door after playing football, you knocked on the door before playing football."

Conan Edogawa calmed down and looked directly at the murderer Ray Katis: "After you knocked on Ed's door, you walked to the stairs and kicked the ball down as he opened the door. Then, as you approached Ed, you used the wireless communicator to confirm with Xiaolan that the lights were on, and then you fired at the same time.

Even if it's only three seconds, it's not impossible.

In fact, besides you, others can also use this mechanism to create an alibi.

For example: just tie a rope to the mop and pull it gently to turn off the light. In this way, Rika, who is on the fifth floor of K, can also use the mechanism to turn off the light when Xiaolan reminds him that he turned on the wrong light.

But the crime scene is within the scope of the second floor of K, which you are responsible for, so it is absolutely impossible for Rica to commit the crime without meeting you.

Of course, it was impossible for Mike, whose figure was clearly revealed when the curtains were opened on the third floor of K, to do so.

That means among the three of you, only you! Lei!

It is possible to commit a crime."

When Ray Curtis heard the child-like man in front of him describe the entire process of the crime in detail, as if he was there watching him do it, he felt an uncontrollable fear in his heart.

But Ray Curtis still wanted to struggle a little more. He tried to use the smoke reaction that the police hadn't figured out to stump this child who wasn't like a child: "But, kid, if I had fired a gun, wouldn't the gunpowder be..."

Conan Edogawa interrupted Ray Curtis's sophistry again: "Generally, the police only check the cuffs of the coat when investigating the reaction of gunpowder smoke. At most, they will check the trousers, and rarely check the inside of the clothes.

You took off your coat before committing the crime, and when you fired the gun, the gunpowder would only spray onto your coat and trousers. You only had to put on your coat before leaning out of the window, and then change your coat and trousers when you returned to the room to wait, and the police would have had no trouble detecting the gun smoke reaction.

Conan Edogawa pulled out a metal object wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket. It was exactly what he had found in the trash can under the sink in the bathroom: "That was when you used this needle to deflate the football and then hid it in your shirt, right?

I found this in the trash can after you came out of the bathroom, and the deflated football was found by the restaurant staff under the autograph table."

Compared with previous murderers, Ray Curtis was surprisingly tenacious. He still asked, "But how can you say that I put it there?"

Edogawa Conan looked at Ray Curtis and was silent for a while before continuing, "Actually, Ed had already pointed it out.

The murderer is you!

The gesture made by Ed's right hand fingers is the same as that made when eating sushi. As for the belt in his left hand, it refers to a bandage.

In sushi restaurants, the staff are accustomed to communicating with code words, and among the dishes in the restaurant, band represents dish number eight.

And this hint is the death message that Ed gave before his death, accusing you, Ray Curtis, of being the murderer!"

Ray Curtis never expected that the newspaper reporter he killed would actually leave a death message that could point to himself, so much so that he couldn't control his expression for a moment, and his pupils trembled with fear.

Edogawa Conan turned around and walked towards the room where the mechanism was set up. He pushed aside the air window mechanism that was taller than him and spewed out the flaws he had found: "I also found that the towel in the bathroom of this guest room is wet. I think you got it wet when you washed your face, right?

Because the gunpowder smoke on the skin can be easily washed off with water."

Edogawa Conan walked to the football he had just used for demonstration, squatted down, stroked the football, paused for a moment, and laughed at himself: "Oh, it's really ironic.

I originally wanted to prove your innocence, but I didn't expect that the more I investigated, the more evidence I found to prove that you were the murderer."

Ray Katis's eyes were full of sinister intent, but after listening to the whole story, he suddenly seemed to be relieved: "Ha~ kid, this is really a pity, the evidence you just mentioned is not definite and irrefutable.

This shirt and trousers are what I usually give to my agent for safekeeping in case of emergency.

I just changed my clothes because I was sweating, and I sent them for washing immediately.

I think those clothes should be in the hotel’s washing machine now.”

Edogawa Conan picked up the football and said in a low voice: "What about your shoes?"

Ray Katis was stunned. Shoes?

Conan Edogawa is never shy about explaining in detail when revealing the truth: "Generally speaking, if you use an automatic pistol, the smoke will come out when the shell is ejected.

The fire of a revolver will spread out radially with the gun body as the center.

The uppers are not immune either.”

Ray Curtis' eyes widened and he reflexively looked at his shoes.

Edogawa Conan did not turn around, but said calmly: "Lei, you must have worn shoes when you committed the crime? Otherwise, you would not be able to kick the ball accurately. Since you have not changed your shoes, the smoke reaction will definitely be detected.

I think this should be considered as irrefutable evidence.”
