Ke Xue: I picked up a bottle of sherry at the beginning.

Daye Yuemin had previously followed Chiye Jiaowu to cut in line. He seemed to be just a guy with low quality who wanted to cut in line, but he met another leader who was even less qualified.

But now it seems...

"You didn't want to lose track of your target, so you immediately followed him and cut in line, right?"

Vermouth pointed out Daye Yuemin's intention.

By this time, even the elementary school detectives like Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta who were watching could figure out the whole story behind this incident:

"I see. This Mr. Daye originally intended to kill Uncle Akano with a knife."

"But Uncle Akano just happened to cut in line and stood at the edge of the platform, giving Mr. Daye a better opportunity to kill."

"So he made a quick decision and changed his killing method. He took advantage of the subway to push Uncle Akano off!"

"Yes!" This inference is reasonable and can fully explain everything that is happening now.

Everyone present thought so too.

"I..." Daye Yuemin was so choked that she couldn't speak at all.

He felt his whole body burning from the gazes that were wary of the murderer.

In despair and fear, he finally couldn't help but yelled out through gritted teeth: "I didn't... I really didn't kill that scumbag!!"

"That 'scumbag'?"

Everyone's gaze became increasingly subtle:

"Mr. Daye, didn't you just say you didn't know 'him'?"

Daye Yuemin: "..."

The sweat on his forehead had unknowingly gathered into a stream, soaking his entire cheek.

He was completely unable to defend himself and could only keep repeating: "I didn't... I really didn't."

But no one at the scene believed him anymore.

Except Conan.

"Something's wrong..." The famous detective frowned slightly.

Before finding the gloves and knife from Daye Yuemin's bag, 233 Conan still regarded him as the number one suspect.

But after seeing the tools hidden in his bag, Conan hesitated:

"This guy even prepared gloves and a murder weapon, and stalked the deceased several hours in advance."

"This means that he had made detailed plans before committing the crime and had designed the method of killing in advance."

"Would a criminal who had made a careful plan really change his killing method at the last minute?"

"Pushing the person down the platform..."

"That's not a better choice."

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and all the passengers present felt that Daye Yuemin accidentally found a better opportunity to commit the crime while tracking, so she did not use the tools hidden in her bag and directly pushed Akano Kakutake down.

This way, Akano Kakutake's death can be disguised as suicide by jumping off the tracks.

Tokyo is such a large city with tens of millions of people in the surrounding urban areas, so it is not uncommon for a few cases of suicide by jumping onto the tracks to occur every year.

The Metropolitan Police Department doesn't bother to deal with such cases and usually just label them as "suicides".

It seems that pushing someone off the platform to fake suicide by jumping onto the tracks is indeed much more clever than killing someone with a knife.

It is normal for Daye Yuemin to temporarily change her killing method.

But in Conan's opinion, this is a bit of a case of putting cause and effect first:

"Akanobashi's death was initially considered a suicide simply because, of the three people behind him, two, besides the suspect, Oo Ye Yuemin, were so engrossed in watching the subway that they didn't notice what was happening in front of them."

"There were no witnesses at the scene and no one saw him fall onto the track."

"But it's a complete coincidence."

Conan's frown deepened:

"How could Daye Yuemin be so sure that the two passersby beside her would definitely look towards the train at that moment and not pay attention to what was happening in front of them?"

"What if someone happened to look back and take a look? Wouldn't that make him be discovered pushing someone down?"

This is not the Tokyo subway in some literary works.

Passersby are not background materials, nor are they blind people.

Committing a crime in a place like this is simply too risky.

It would be fine if Daye Yuemin had not thought it through beforehand and only thought of this method of killing.

But he had clearly planned another method of killing in advance, and even prepared gloves and weapons... Then why did he change his plan at the last minute and take such a risky move?

Could it be that he was too excited and couldn't hold back?

"Mr. Daye..."

After some contemplation, Conan raised his head with a sharp gaze:

"Anyway, we found the murder weapon in your bag."

"Since you said you didn't kill Uncle Akano, then you should at least explain to everyone what happened to the knife and gloves in your bag, and why you were following Uncle Akano?"

"And... why are you gnashing your teeth and calling him a scumbag?"

"Does he have a grudge against you?"

This series of questions brought peace back to the noisy scene.

Everyone looked over curiously, waiting for Daye Yuemin's answer.

"I..." Daye Yuemin's voice was difficult and he paused for a moment.

Then he finally revealed a bitter smile:

"I do have a grudge against Akano Kakutake."

"Because my brother...died at the hands of this bastard!"

It seemed like sad music was playing.

It's just that something is wrong with the process this time.

Before the murderer confessed his guilt, he started crying and talked about his motive for murder:

"Actually, I'm not a fan, my brother is."

"A year ago, my brother suddenly returned home covered in bruises, and unfortunately passed away the next day due to worsening of his injuries."

"Before he died, he told me that he was leaving the venue after watching the game when someone pushed him from behind and he accidentally fell down the stairs."

At that time, Daye Yuemin thought it was just an unfortunate accident.

He thought someone had just accidentally bumped into his brother.

Even his brother didn't know who pushed him, so he had no idea where to find the murderer.

So Daye Yuemin did not call the police, but buried the grief in her heart.

But later...

However, he saw a football hooligan named Akano Kakutake boasting on a certain online forum:

Bragging about how he educated some ignorant fan on a certain day in a certain year.

The way of "education" is to push people down the stairs from behind.

This scumbag has always regarded his criminal behavior as an achievement, and he likes to brag about the details of the process online.

As a result, Daye Yuemin discovered:

The modus operandi matched.

The time and place are right.

Even the gender, age, and body shape of the victim that Akano Kakutake mentioned when he was showing off, as well as the Nova Roma No. 9 jersey he was wearing, all matched those of his unfortunately deceased brother.

"The one who killed my brother was Akano Kakutake!"

"My brother didn't die in an accident at all. He died from the deliberate murder of this bastard!"

Daye Yuemin gnashed her teeth and cursed:

"At this point, there's no way the police can help me get justice."

"I also don't have conclusive evidence that he is the murderer."

"So I can only... can only do it myself and avenge my brother!"

“…” The scene was silent.

Everyone was infected by the pain shown by this man.

"I see..." Vermouth sighed softly: "For revenge of your family?"

"No wonder you wanted to kill this bastard... I can understand you now."

"Wait..." Daye Yuemin's face froze.

Seeing that his identity as a murderer was becoming more and more confirmed, he was still immersed in painful memories and could only hurriedly explain:

"I, I do want to kill Akano Kakutake."

"They also prepared the tools to commit the crime and followed him all the way here, ready to find an opportunity to attack him."

"But, but..."

"I wasn't the one who killed Akano Kakutake!"

"Before I even started, he jumped down!"

"This..." Everyone present looked very strange.

This criminal didn't follow the procedures...

The motive for the crime has been revealed, yet he still refuses to admit it?

Does anyone believe what you say?

No one saw how Akano Kakutake fell, so you are just making this up.

"Really, it's true!"

"He really jumped down by himself!"

Daye Yuemin had no way to defend herself and could only repeat herself over and over again in a daze.

"He jumped down by himself?" Everyone naturally didn't believe it: "But you said earlier that you were watching the subway arrive at the station and didn't see how Akano Kakutake jumped down?"

"I..." Daye Yuemin choked again, "The other two people said they didn't see anything at the time."

"I had the tools in my bag, and I felt insecure. I didn't want to stand out in front of the police, so I followed suit and said I didn't see anything."

"But I actually saw—"

"Akanobashi Kakutake really jumped down on his own."

"Really?" He was met with a suspicious look.

Daye Yuemin was completely desperate.

He had no way to clear himself of suspicion.

In this despair, he was finally forced to change his thinking:

"You say I'm a murderer."

"You have to produce evidence, right?"

"Just because I was standing behind him doesn't mean I'm a murderer!"

It is not his responsibility to prove his innocence in this matter, but the police should provide evidence.

Daye Yuemin's voice was not strong, but his logic was still straight.

"This..." All the "civilian Conans" present were suddenly disappointed.

They are only good at "solving cases" by relying on their imagination.
