The famous criminal in the world of Conan

After obtaining the key evidence - the wooden board fragments, Bai Masong and Sato Miwako returned to Sanni Temple together.

When I returned, as soon as I entered the temple gate, I saw the monk Xiunian who had disappeared before.

Bai Masong narrowed his eyes and shouted.

"Master Xiu Nian."

"Ok?"

Monk Xiu Nian turned around and saw Bai Masong and the other man. He bowed and asked.

"Officer Baima called me, what's the matter?"

"Where have you been? Come with us, we are just about to conduct a routine interrogation on you."

Bai Masong made an accusing expression, and his already stern face made him look like a very suspicious person.

This made Monk Xiunian very panicked.

He quickly said, "Okay, okay, Officer Baima, if you have any questions, feel free to ask."

"Where were you last night? What were you doing? Did you hear anything?"

Bai Masong asked three questions in a row.

Xiunian thought for a moment and said.

"I was in my room all night last night studying the scriptures, and if I made any noise, I heard Miss Maori screaming."

what! ?

Hakuba Matsu and Sato Miwako looked at each other, and both of them heard something wrong.

However, the two did not make it public.

Bai Masong said calmly: "Okay, thank you Master Xiu Nian for your help. That's it for now."

Xiu Nian heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "No trouble, no trouble."

Having said that, he said goodbye to the two of them and left.

Watching Monk Xiu Nian walking away, Bai Ma Song said to Sato Miwako, "Sato, have someone keep an eye on Monk Xiu Nian."

"Okay!" Sato Miwako agreed solemnly.

Afterwards, she made a phone call and told Officer Megure about the problem with Monk Shuunian, and asked him to keep a close eye on him.

"Now come with me to the plank road again." Bai Masong said, and then walked towards the plank road of the temple.

Sato Miwako agreed and quickly followed.

........................

This plank road is located at the top opposite Shanni Temple. One side of the plank road is close to the top window of the confinement room. This is also the only place that can reach the beams of the confinement room.

So, when the murder happened two years ago, Inspector Megure and his team considered entering from here, but later rejected the idea because the roof was too narrow.

On the other side of the plank road is a waterfall flowing down from the top of the mountain. The waterfall is mixed with cherry blossoms falling from the top of the mountain, washing the railings of the plank road.

Bai Masong and Sato Miwako came to the plank road, and Sato Miwako asked first.

"Inspector Hakuba, what are we doing here?"

Bai Ma Song did not answer, but walked to a wooden board on the plank road.

He looked at the wooden board in front of him, exerted force with his fingers, and picked up the board.

Then, he placed one end of the wooden board on the railing of the plank road and the other end on the window of the confinement room. In an instant, the water from the waterfall began to flow towards the confinement room.

"This, what is this?" Sato Miwako said in surprise.

Seeing the water flowing down, Bai Ma Song put away the wooden board, turned around and said to Sato Miwako.

"They all said that perhaps only the legendary Mist Tengu could handle this case."

As he spoke, he pointed to the wooden board.

"And this is the so-called power of Mist Tengu!"

"Officer Sato, notify Officer Megure and call everyone over. I have solved the case."

..............................

Soon, everyone arrived at the confinement room, and Bai Masong was already waiting there.

As soon as he came in, Inspector Megure asked excitedly, "Brother Hakuba, have you really solved the case?"

"That's right." Bai Masong nodded.

"Then how did the criminal hang Master Tenyong on the beam seven or eight meters above the ground?" Officer Megure asked.

Conan had the same problem as Inspector Megure. He was previously bewildered by what he thought was the "Hakuba method of solving cases", which led to him not thinking much about the matter. Looking back, Hakuba had already solved the case.

"Use water." Bai Masong said lightly.

"Use water?" Everyone asked in confusion.

Bai Masong pointed upwards and said, "As long as we bring the waterfall water in through the skylight above the room and fill the entire room with water, people will be able to float on it."

"How, how is it possible?" Officer Megure asked in surprise, "In this case, wouldn't the body be stained with water? We didn't find any traces of water on the body!"

"You can use a rubber boat." Bai Masong explained.

"I saw rubber boats when I was patrolling inside the temple. As long as the body is placed on the rubber boat, it can avoid getting wet."

"But the waterfall is some distance away from the skylight. How can we bring the water in?" Inspector Megure asked another question.

Bai Masong heard it and called out "Sato."

"coming!"

In an instant, the water flowed down amid the incredulous gazes of the crowd.

"You can use wooden boards, seal the gaps between the boards with tape, turn them over, and place them between the railings and the skylight, so that the water from the waterfall can be diverted into this confinement room." Bai Masong continued.

As he spoke, Baimasong walked to the wall, picked up a cherry blossom petal, and showed it to everyone.

“The waterfall will carry the cherry blossoms from the top of the mountain, and the cherry blossoms in the house are also proof that the water once flowed in.”

"That is, after strangling Tianyong, the murderer moved to this room, put him on the rubber boat, closed the entrance door and sealed it with tape, and then left through the small window next to it."

"Use the same method as before to inject water into it. Then quickly return to the first floor, enter through the window, and block the small window with tape."

"Then, carefully prevent the body from touching the water, and wait until the water is high enough to touch the beams, and then hang the host's body up."

"Finally, climb through the skylight into the plank road, get to the small window, chop it open, and let the water in the confinement room."

"Because the water fills the entire room, the impact of its instantaneous flow is very large, so it will punch a big hole in the wall. After the water flows out, this secret room will be completed."

Bai Masong concluded.

After Hakumasong finished reasoning about the locked room technique, Inspector Megure couldn't wait to ask more.

"Then, brother Bai Ma, who could be the murderer of this case?"

After hearing this, Bai Masong asked Inspector Megure.

"Officer, remember I asked you to keep an eye on Master Xiu Nian?"

"What?" Officer Megure asked in surprise, "Could the murderer be Master Xiu Nian?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Xiunian.
