Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 360: The Mystery of the Blue Jade Throne: Hidden Murder and Identity Schemes
Inside the exhibition hall, the lights are bright, but there is a tense atmosphere.
Conan seized the opportunity, quietly took out the bow voice changer, and told Kaito Kid the whole story of the case.
Kaito Kid tilted his head slightly and asked in a low voice: "Really?"
"Yeah." Conan responded.
This scene was seen by Hakuba Tan, who understood instantly. He looked at the bow-tie voice changer in Conan's hand, then looked at Kudo Yuki, and smiled knowingly.
Kudo Yuki nodded slightly, responding to his guess.
Inspector Megure was still bewildered: "Ah? Shinichi's mystery show? Then this murder case has been solved."
"Yes, the criminal and the method of committing the crime are clear. Let me explain it." Kaito Kidd did not forget to tease, "But I won't sleep like Xiaolan's father."
Mao Lilan puffed up her cheeks angrily, her face full of dissatisfaction.
Suzuki Sonoko covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes full of mockery.
Bai Ma Tan took over the conversation: "What a coincidence, I also found out the truth, let's compare the answers like we did just now?"
"Ah, okay."
Bai Ma lowered his head and asked, "Conan, are you okay?"
Conan looked up and smiled and replied, "No problem, it's quite entertaining."
Kaito Kid pulled open the door curtain and walked in, and began to sort out the events: "10 minutes before Kaito Kid's announcement, President Yoshida, Director Kase and several staff members completed the final inspection of the 'Blue Jade Throne' exhibition hall.
When everyone reached the corridor, the lights suddenly dimmed. Although the security camera didn't capture anything, Conan and I noticed something strange.
When we got here in the dark, we found President Yoshida's body, shot, sitting on the blue jade throne. The anti-theft camera didn't capture Kidd because it had an invisible lens in front. However, this should have been deliberately arranged by the criminal to make Kidd take the blame. "
Inspector Megure was puzzled: "But did anyone expect Kidd to use invisible lenses?"
"That's the murderer." Kaito Kidd explained, "The criminal probably thought that if Kidd wasn't caught on camera when he entered the showroom, no one would suspect anything when President Yoshida didn't appear on camera when he returned to the showroom."
Ogino Ayami and Suzuki Jirokichi reacted instantly.
"The president didn't take the photo because..."
"Could he have been killed before Kidd arrived?"
Kaito Kid nodded: "Yes, just when the staff finished the final inspection."
Officer Nakamori was surprised: "What did you say!"
Kudo Yuki soothed, "Please think about it carefully."
Kaito Kidd went on to state: "Kidd was hiding in a fake fire hydrant, so there was no need to cut off the power in the showroom before the announced time. He should have planned to remove the invisible lens after he succeeded, let the police see that the door of the showroom was open, and then blend in with the mobile team members to escape."
Kaito Kidd glanced at Conan from the corner of his eye, and his eyes seemed to say: "You guessed it right."
Conan held up the bow voice changer in both hands and smiled happily.
Kase Masuo pulled open the door curtain, his face full of confusion. "What are you talking about? Didn't President Yoshida come out after the final inspection of the showroom? He said, 'There are still some places to confirm,' and then he went back to the showroom alone. He came out in about 10 seconds. It was all recorded."
Bai Ba Tan looked at him, his eyes full of doubt: "Is that really President Yoshida?"
Kasei Masuo was stunned by the question: "Ah?"
"Did you notice the key details?" Bai Ma leaned forward and glanced at everyone, "The president and employees who conducted the final inspection were all wearing protective clothing, with only their eyes and mouths showing, and their facial features were almost completely covered.
Don't forget that the president lost his contact lenses and glasses at the karaoke bar last night, and his voice became hoarse from singing. Based on these, it would not be difficult to disguise as the president even without Kidd's disguise skills. "
"But, but, later on, the president came out of the showroom and made an OK gesture. If the president's body was already on the throne at that time, the camera should have been able to capture it."
"I thought of that too." Bai Ma Tan took out his cell phone and showed the surveillance pictures.
"I checked the video footage captured by the camera, and it's like this. The prisoner pretending to be President Yoshida completely blocked the view of the Sapphire Throne, and you could barely see it! Then you reported to the camera, and the man didn't move until the door at the back was closed. It was obvious that he deliberately stood in a position to block the body."
Officer Megure frowned: "So President Yoshida was indeed killed during the final inspection?"
"Yes, the criminal was probably mixed in with the staff. The change from five to six people would not attract much attention in that situation. And everyone was wearing hats at the time, so it was difficult to tell their appearance. I guess the criminal was disguised as the president and wore a hat.
When the inspection was over and the president was about to come out, the prisoner called him from behind, saying, for example, "There seems to be something strange under the wall to the right of the door." When the president walked to the designated location, the prisoner called again to make him turn his head, and took the opportunity to hit him in the temple and kill him.
After that, the criminal took off his hat, revealing the face of the fake president, and said to Minister Kase in a hoarse voice, "I want to confirm something." He returned to the exhibition hall, closed the door, moved the president's body to the blue jade throne, and then came out and made an OK gesture, and the job was done. "
Yoshida Caiyue frowned slightly and asked worriedly, "Won't the gunshot be heard if you shoot so close? Didn't Mr. Kase hear it?"
"No, the jets were very loud."
Kamiji Kuya clasped his hands together and let them fall naturally, seemingly calm: "Just based on this picture, we can't tell who the criminal is, right?"
Kudo Yuki smiled and gave the answer: "There is more than one way to find the criminal. We can also judge by the small movements in his daily life habits."
"For example, when people hug their arms, which arm is on top varies from person to person. It's a personal habit." Kaito Kid took out his cell phone and flipped through the two photos that Kyuya Uechi had shown him before.
"It's the same with putting your hands together in front of you. If your posture is different from usual, it will look awkward. In these two photos, the president and Mrs. Saitsuki both have their right hands on top. When reporting that there is no problem, Director Kase also has his right hand on top. But the criminal pretending to be the president, Secretary Kyuya Uechi, has his left hand on top, just like you are now."
Kasei Masuo and Yoshida Ayatsuki looked up at Kuya in shock.
"Mr. Uechi, are you..."
"You killed my husband?"
Kamiji Kyuya waved his hands in fear and explained: "No, that's not the case. There are so many people with their left hand on top, and the president even sent me a text message."
Conan hid behind Kaito Kid and continued to decrypt with the bow voice changer: "The text messages sent to you and Mrs. Caiyue, after killing the president, just use his mobile phone to send it. After the power outage, you secretly left, threw the phone in the corridor, removed the disguise, took off the protective clothing, and pretended to have just received the text message and ran into the guard room, right?"
Kamiji Kyuya frowned and spread his hands: "You said the critical time is only 10 seconds! The person pretending to be the president only stayed in the exhibition hall for 10 seconds, and there was no way he could move the body to the blue jade throne. How could I do it?"
"You know the fire brigade carry method?"
Hearing this, Kamiji Kyuya turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat.
Hakuba patted Kaito Kid's shoulder and said with a dagger hidden in his smile: "As expected of Kudo Shinichi, you also thought of it. I will demonstrate, and you cooperate!"
Kudo Yukimi Conan was a little flustered by this unexpected action, and hurriedly installed the bow tie voice changer on the bow tie.
Kaito Kidd had no choice but to cooperate and lie on the ground.
Hakuba Tan seriously fiddled with Kaito Kid's legs with his hands, explaining as he demonstrated: "First, raise the lying person's knees up to about 90 degrees, so it's easier to exert force."
He slightly bent his body, raised his right foot accurately, stepped firmly on the toes of Kaito Kidd's shoes, exerted force on the soles of his feet, slowly pressed his body down, and said in a deep voice: "Fix it firmly to prevent it from moving. This is the key."
Hakuba reached out and firmly grasped Kaito Kid's hands, then pulled them up with all his strength, while at the same time he quickly squatted down and moved forward, all in one smooth motion.
"This way, I can carry the person on my shoulders in an instant. If they are of similar size, it will be even easier."
Inspector Megure, Ogino Ayami, Suzuki Jirokichi and Inspector Nakamori were all stunned.
Bai Ma Tan went on to explain: “Using this method to carry a person doesn’t even take 10 seconds. First, lift the upper body of the corpse up against yourself, then hold the legs with your hands, and you can make the corpse sit on the blue jade throne and then come back.
The marks on the body's shoes were left by the legs being tied up, and the blood on the curtains was splashed when the body was carried. The prisoner moved the body to the throne to prevent being discovered. If the body was in the blind spot of the camera near the door, it would be easier for the prisoner to move. "
Kamiji Kuya raised a doubt: "Although the camera did not capture the president, some people may suspect that the president had been killed at that time, and the person who appeared at the end was not himself. You are trying to eliminate this doubt, right?"
Hakuba Tan carried Kaito Kid on his back and replied, "The fire brigade's back-carrying method, as a former firefighter, of course you can do it."
"I've long forgotten this skill." Kamiji Kyuya was still struggling.
"There are a few missing bloodstains in front of the throne. They were formed when the criminal placed the body at his feet. So, President Yoshida's bloodstains should still be on your heels."
Kamiji Kyuya collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning, leaning against the wall with despair in his eyes.
Yoshida Caiyue walked up to him, lowered her head and cried: "Why did you kill my husband?"
Conan stepped forward to explain, "Maybe the president found out that you are his wife's secret lover."
"Ah?" Yoshida Ayatsuki widened her eyes in shock.
"There is a trace of a wedding ring on the ring finger of the president's left hand. He is not wearing it today. The photo of him and his wife on the table is also overturned. Moreover, his wife and you have the same perfume on you."
Kase Masuo suddenly realized: "So that's why the president is so depressed?"
Kamiji Kuya no longer concealed his feelings, his face full of regret: "Yes, last week the president said, 'Once the Kidd incident is over, I will break up with my wife and then fire you.' I failed in my stock investment, which was already miserable, and hearing this made me even more desperate.
I thought of using the invisible lens to commit the crime, so I told my subordinates to invite the inactive president to sing karaoke, so that his voice would be hoarse, which would facilitate my disguise. When I went to pick up the drunk president, I hid his contact lenses.
The president was very drunk at the time and handed me the microphone, asking me to sing, but I didn’t take it because I remembered that I had sung until my voice was hoarse with the president before, and I was worried that this would wear off my murderous intent. ”
In the end, Kyuya Uechi was handcuffed by Ayami Ogino and left with Inspector Megure.
Hakuba held Kaito Kid's legs tightly with both hands, with no intention of letting go.
Kaito Kid turned his head and muttered unhappily: "Then what? How long are you going to carry me?"
"How about I just carry you to the police station, Kaito Kidd?"
When Officer Nakamori heard this, he shouted, “What!”
Kaito Kidd dropped his hands, secretly making small moves, and muttered in frustration: "I can't hide it after all."
"Of course." Hakuba carried Kaito Kidd and prepared to leave.
"Isn't it a bit difficult to walk over there?" Kaito Kidd tried to distract him.
"Don't bother. I have the energy."
At this time, Kaito Kid quietly took out the handcuffs from Hakuba's coat pocket.
Bai Ma Tan had just taken a few steps when, with a "click", the handcuffs tightened on his legs and he fell flat on his face.
Kaito Kidd supported himself on the ground with his hands, jumped up neatly, and stood firm to the side.
Officer Nakamori and Suzuki Jirokichi shouted angrily: "Kid, you bastard!"
Kaito Kidd had a smug smile on his face. He took out a white smoke bomb and threw it on the ground, filling the air with smoke.
Suzuki Jirokichi and Officer Nakamori sneezed due to choking, and the sound was heard by Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko outside the door curtain.
"what?"
"What happened?"
Kudo Yuki was quick-witted and quick-handed. She hugged Conan and hid in a place with less smoke, watching the show with Kaito Kid with great interest.
Kaito Kid lifted the door curtain and went out, intending to leave quietly, but when he raised his eyes, he met the vigilant eyes of Mouri Ran.
Mao Lilan's body froze at first, her face full of disbelief, and she subconsciously exclaimed: "Shin-Shinichi?"
Kaito Kidd reacted very quickly, with a gentle smile on his face. He gently fanned the smoke that had not yet dissipated, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Xiaolan. Kidd ran away, I have to chase him, I will call you when I'm done."
"Okay, I understand." Mao Lilan confirmed that the case was over, became alert, and grabbed Kaito Kid's lower arm, "Do you think I will let you go like this? Kaito Kid."
"Ah, why?"
Mao Lilan secretly thanked Kudo Yuki for reminding her before, but at this moment, she looked calm, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and she quickly reviewed the scene in her mind. After thinking for a moment, she said: "When I kissed Shinichi, I kissed his right cheek. You just pointed to the left cheek."
Suzuki Sonoko, who was standing by, was still confused, but suddenly became alert and shouted exaggeratedly: "No way! Oh, it's really Mr. Kidd."
Mao Lilan's eyebrows were raised, and her grievance and anger suddenly surged up, and she began to bring up the past: "You always pretend to be Shinichi, which is unforgivable."
Kaito Kidd was not annoyed. With a smile on his face, he whispered softly, "Then take this flower as an apology."
He took off the glove that was grabbed on his lower arm, and with a nimble flick of his wrist, a bouquet of red roses appeared in his palm in an instant.
Kaito Kid quickly threw a smoke bomb with his other hand, and white smoke spread. By the time Mouri Ran and others came to their senses, he had disappeared without a trace.
Kudo Yuki couldn't help but complain: "This brat only knows how to show off this one trick in front of girls."
Conan looked at the direction where Kaito Kid disappeared and smiled helplessly.
The smoke gradually dissipated, and Suzuki Sonoko was still looking for Kaito Kidd, muttering in disappointment: "Mr. Kidd disappeared again."
Mao Lilan pretended to be angry and muttered: "Really, what's wrong with that thief? Not only did he pretend to be Shinichi, but he also said such things. It's all nonsense from Kaito Kidd."
Bai Batan lifted the curtain and came out, correcting him firmly: "No, that was what Kudo Shinichi himself said."
