Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

Chapter 160 Don’t laugh, I’m scared!

As Fujiwara Hiroshi laughed louder and louder, Tanaka Kikue felt more and more frightened and scared. She really wanted to slap Fujiwara Hiroshi in the face twice.

"Stop laughing! Laughing XXX!!! Your laughter scares me, and I'm terrified!"

Of course, she couldn't say this out loud, she could only think about it in her mind. Fortunately, Tanaka Kikue didn't dare to really go up and do it.

Otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Fujiwara Hiroshi has no mercy on women. If Vermouth dares to take action, she will be severely whipped and taught a lesson.

There is also the roller coaster, the place where the dream begins. Miss Xiaotong, whose brain has crashed, is so depressed that she wants to attack Fujiwara Hiroshi in a rage.

In the end, the body and mind suffered a double blow and enjoyed double happiness.

However, after laughing for a while, Fujiwara Hiroshi continued speaking directly to Tanaka Kikue.

"There's no evidence, it's all just deduction and analysis! Humph! Do you think you can rest easy just because you have time to dispose of the evidence with this method?

Do you think you were so flawless, leaving no evidence? Do you think you can get away with it by not mentioning that impossible crime you were so proud of?

Wake up! Are you still dreaming of your grandeur? Do you think I don't know that you didn't dare to mention that magic trick because you were afraid I'd discover your secrets and evidence?

To tell you the truth, I know far more than you think! Since you really don't want to confess yourself, let me continue to explain it to you in detail!

Fujiwara Hiroshi scoffed at Tanaka Kikue's desperate struggle. Hearing Fujiwara Hiroshi's words, Tanaka Kikue felt as if someone had stepped on her tail and took another step back.

"It's over! He really knows all my secrets, so doesn't that mean..." The more Kikue Tanaka thought about it, the more panicked she became.

Ever since Fujiwara Hiroshi said she was the murderer, everyone has been staring at her, and she had no time to deal with the arrow she had just pulled out.

At this moment, this crucial evidence became a hot potato, hidden in her leather boots, like a time bomb ready to explode at any time.

Tanaka Kikue's feet also began to ache slightly. This piece of physical evidence was definitely the best solid proof that she was being held down, and since everyone was watching, there was no way to deal with it.

She now suspected more and more that Fujiwara Hiroshi might have been keeping an eye on her for a long time, waiting for her to hide the evidence and then jump out to testify against her.

Thinking of this, Tanaka Kikue began to feel unwell! She kept repeating in her heart and praying secretly that all this was just her overthinking. In fact, Fujiwara Hiroshi didn't know.

While Tanaka Kikue was still feeling uneasy, Fujiwara Hiroshi began his second round of showtime! He continued with his previous argument.

"Then let's review our previous analysis. In fact, we only conducted the first part of the reasoning analysis, and I believe everyone has just listened to it.

Miss Tanaka's unreasonable behavior of rushing out to confront the enemy regardless of danger can be basically restored to the original appearance of the matter by slowly analyzing it from this point to the whole picture!

So let's start with the second point. That is, if, as Ms. Tanaka said, there really was a so-called shadow mage outside in the woods who launched a sneak attack.

Then the shadow mage in the woods, through the light, could shoot the crossbow so far off target, whether intentionally or not, so her archery skills must be very poor.

Of course, if this is the idea, then the corresponding evidence is that Miss Tanaka went out and acted provocatively, and was met with counterattack from the Shadow Mage.

Not only did it not hit Miss Tanaka, but the direction of the shot was so off that it was aimed at the second floor but hit the first floor instead.

Then this kind of logical reasoning would be valid, provided that the Shadow Mage's skills are really that bad, which is why Ms. Tanaka dared not mention it.

That's because the impossible crime scene setup also utilizes a crossbow, and requires good crossbow archery skills.

If this is the case, it will form a natural contradiction with the chaotic and inaccurate crossbow shooting technique in the second set of techniques.

This is obviously irrational, and the crossbow and extra arrows that Sonoko found in the snow further expose her stupidity!"

"Why would this expose her stupidity? Didn't they find the Shadow Mage's tools in the woods out in the wild? Wouldn't that prove that it was indeed the Shadow Mage who attacked our villa in the woods?"

Naoko Kuroda looked at Fujiwara Hiroshi who was reasoning, and he was really radiating light and shining on her, so she also wanted to feel involved.

So he became Fujiwara Hiroshi's supporting actor, and when he heard Fujiwara Hiroshi talking about Tanaka Kikue's stupid behavior again, he became everyone's mouthpiece and expressed his doubts.

"The reason is very simple, because this seemingly reasonable conclusion is just what the murderer is trying to lead everyone to.

However, everyone was indeed brought into the murderer's perspective, because this action was completely inhumane.

Let me put it this way, Ms. Kuroda, if you are being hunted by all of us now, you are alone against so many of us, and you have a crossbow in your hand.

With this crossbow, you can easily exploit the difference in numbers and hunt everyone down. So, would you give up your advantage and abandon the crossbow on the ground?"

Fujiwara Hiroshi changed his thinking and asked Kuroda Naoko to put herself in the murderer's situation, then she would definitely not make such a stupid choice.

"That's definitely not possible! This is a life-saving tool...ah!! I see!" Kuroda Naoko answered subconsciously, and halfway through her words, she realized the irrational logic behind it.

"That's right! That's why I said her actions exposed her stupidity. I wasn't exaggerating at all. If you think about it a little, you'll understand.

Even a child like Conan would not throw away his greatest support in such a situation. But she did it, what could her purpose be?

Of course, he had to continue hiding his identity, because he had already used the crossbow in front of everyone, and if he continued to keep it with him, there would be a great risk that we would discover him.

So the best option is to deal with it, but then a new problem arises: how to deal with it?"

Fujiwara Hiroshi now understands that he can't just talk all the time, he has to leave some time to give feedback to the supporting actors, so that he can gain greater satisfaction.

"Yes! Throw it in the woods to create the illusion that the Shadow Mage is waiting outside the woods to launch a sneak attack." Ara Yoshinori also began to cooperate with Fujiwara Hiroshi and learned to answer quickly!

"That's a great idea! Let's continue this line of reasoning and analysis. If we put ourselves in the murderer's shoes, what should we do to achieve this goal?"

Fujiwara Hiroshi began to guide and inspire everyone to think together. It seemed that Fujiwara Hiroshi himself had opened up a new world. Before, he was like the detectives in these worlds, who only analyzed techniques and liked to solve puzzles.

However, we ignore the fact that it is actually very interesting to gradually restore the case from multiple angles through human nature and various comprehensive aspects.

Moreover, this style of leading everyone to think together, decipher and analyze, and discuss together can be considered unique.

Conan, who was standing aside, fell into deep thought. He could not understand Fujiwara Hiroshi's behavior because he treated solving cases as a competition, as fun, and liked to enjoy flowers, applause, and the spotlight.

His sense of happiness and satisfaction comes from the fact that I have cracked the murderer's amazing method. Only I thought of it, and none of you could have imagined that after I told it, I would get everyone's praise.

So he couldn't understand why Fujiwara Hiroshi didn't directly expose the core trick used by the murderer to commit an impossible crime, but instead led everyone in reasoning and analysis to figure out how to identify the murderer.

This is the biggest difference between Fujiwara Hiroshi and Conan. When Conan was confused, Xiaolan's next reaction really gave Conan a blow!

“If it were me, I would choose to be one step ahead and go into the woods, taking advantage of the perspective deviation caused by the spatial switch from the bright area to the dark area of the woods.

When no one is paying attention, quickly throw the crossbow and arrow, then run forward for a distance, distance yourself, and wait for others to notice the crossbow you threw."

Xiaolan held her chin with her hand and gave the plan that she thought was the most feasible. Hahaha, Xiaolan also joined in the thinking.

"Ran!?" Conan didn't expect that it would be Xiaolan who answered this time. He knew that he had been unsuccessful in instilling detective thinking in Xiaolan for so many years.

Most of the time, Xiaolan just indulged her own interests and listened to the discussion of Sherlock Holmes and cases over there, which was a stiff cooperation.

What's more, Xiaolan's father was a policeman and later became a detective. This is the family atmosphere.

Even with her childhood sweetheart's occasional indoctrination, Xiaolan still had little interest in detective work.

In so many crime scenes in the past, I only occasionally paid attention to the development of the case and wanted to understand the truth and methods.

But today's Xiaolan is different. She actually follows Fujiwara Hiroshi's thinking, and the answer she gave is obviously the result of careful thinking.

It's not just a simple matter of dealing with it, but I'm really interested in exploring the answer, and I'm deeply immersed in the murderer's perspective and giving the answer.

That's why Conan was surprised and began to reflect on why he had only met a few friends like Hattori Heiji who could keep up with his thinking along the way.

Because most people's reaction speed and other aspects can't keep up with his way of thinking. So every time he finishes explaining the case with pride, almost no one can resonate with him.

Although many people praised him and complimented him, everyone was actually just amazed that there were such methods to commit crimes.

No one could resonate with him about the joy of finding out the truth and the pleasure of solving a case, because he himself felt this pleasure, but others could not.

Now everyone is participating in the interactive question-and-answer reasoning analysis between Hiroshi Fujiwara and everyone. Everyone is a detective and part of solving the case. With a sense of participation, there will be a sense of satisfaction after solving the case.

"Oh my! We feel so out of place upstairs! They seem to be having a great time downstairs, Doi Ta, let's go down too!"

Sonoko was upstairs watching everyone downstairs surrounding Fujiwara Hiroshi, talking to each other, and feeling very involved. Especially her good friend Xiaolan also participated in the experience, which made her very envious.

Although Sonoko often gives some ridiculous ideas in her reasoning, she is really interested in reasoning and analyzing. Maybe this is because she is addicted to being a bad person!

(Kyogoku Makoto [angry, fist warning]: I advise you to speak properly!

Fujiwara Hiroshi [Death Stare]: Huh! ?

Kyogoku Makoto [shrinks his head, immediately cowers]: So it's my brother-in-law! Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!)

"Okay!" Doi Takeshu was also helpless. He had followed Sonoko up here because he wanted to take the opportunity to escape if his identity was exposed by Fujiwara Hiroshi.

Unexpectedly, Fujiwara Hiroshi was playing "Let's Solve the Case Together" downstairs again. At this time, he didn't dare to directly refuse Sonoko and not go downstairs.

So, with no other choice, Doi Takeki could only follow Sonoko back downstairs from upstairs and participate in Fujiwara Hiroshi's question-and-answer session with everyone.

When Doi Takeki attacked in anger before, he actually found out that he had been deceived. Later, when Fujiwara Hiroshi revealed that Tanaka Kikue was the murderer, he had figured out everything.

This high IQ means that his reactions in all aspects are faster than others. He understood the whole picture of the case faster than others, so thinking that the incident is about to end, he was already preparing to escape.

He failed to escape, and was forced back to square one by Sonoko halfway through. Doi Takeshu's mouth twitched several times.

----

"That's a very good answer! Now, let's think about who were the people who appeared in the corresponding places at these corresponding times?

Who was the first to rush out of the bathroom after seeing the arrow? And who ran towards the woods?

Of course it's all our Miss Tanaka! You are the most suitable person in terms of both space and time, and the one who is most convenient for implementing the plan."

As Fujiwara Hiroshi's words fell one by one, they were like nails that nailed Tanaka Kikue to the judgment pillar.

If everyone had doubts about Fujiwara Hiroshi's reasoning before, this time they are completely convinced, because this time everyone has come up with their own reasoning.

In other words, all the conclusions drawn through reasoning and all the accusations were directed at Kikue Tanaka.

It feels like there's no need for any hard-core evidence right now. Given everyone's current excitement, Tanaka Kikue is now at the point of remaining silent, not to mention being influenced by Fujiwara Hiroshi and everyone else's reasoning and analysis.

Even if Kikue Tanaka calms down now and speaks eloquently, and comes up with a set of rebuttals to prove that she is not the murderer, no one will believe her.

What's more, the reality is that Kikue Tanaka couldn't refute a single point. It was indeed analyzed by everyone, and it happened to be her line of action every step of the way. Who could stand this!
