282. Angry Xiao Ran Is So Scary!
Conan asked: "Sister, was this ship also used to transport whiskey? And ice?"
Anxi replied: "Yes, when the guest made a reservation, he ordered all the menus to be transported on a large ship. We followed the instructions and delivered the dishes at seven-thirty and the whiskey at eight o'clock.
Wu Fan opened the boat and found that there were small motors and sensors inside, and there was a lot of space inside.
"It seems he is the murderer."
Conan nodded and said: "Yes, but the most important thing now is the alibi.
Afterwards, Wu Fan and Conan said goodbye to Anxi and sneaked into Room 3.
From the outside, there doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.
However, there is still one detail that Wu Fan and Conan caught.
"What's missing is a pair of paper bags for bamboo chopsticks." Wu Fan said.
"That's... I see, no wonder he made that move." Conan noticed the bowl on the table. two
Wu Fan said: "There are small holes and traces of moisture on the edge of the window. Now all the puzzles have been solved. It can be said that everything is ready now."
Afterwards, Wu Fan returned to the crowd.
"I already know who the murderer is and how he committed the crime."
Officer Megure asked, "Really?"
Mouri Kogoro said disapprovingly: "Humph, I would like to hear it. It must be by water, right?"
Wu Fan said: "Uncle is right. He invaded Room 8 through the waterway."
Mouri Kogoro said proudly: "I knew it."
"But all the witnesses said that no one except boats passed through the waterway." Takagi Wataru asked.
Wu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, he used the boat to commit the crime."
Officer Megure was confused: "Use a boat?"
"There is still enough space in a large ship for petite people to fit in. First of all, the murderer asked the restaurant to transport all the food he ordered on a large ship. After the food was cleared, he removed the wooden planks. Bend down and hide in the hull of the ship. The ship will return to the dock under the guidance of the sensor. Just as the ship is moving forward, the murderer presses the button of the sensor with his foot. At this time, the motor stops and he successfully reaches the window of Room 8. .”
"I'm afraid Mr. Kaneda was shocked at first, but he didn't expect that the person he was most familiar with came here to kill him. He took advantage of Mr. Kaneda's lack of defense and killed him. At this time, the murderer wanted to reduce the impact of others on him. Suspicious that he might have taken the water route, Mr. Kaneda turned to face the corridor."
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Humph, that's what he said, but how can the murderer get back to his guest room?"
Wu Fan replied: "It's very simple. The murderer hid in the hull again and pressed the button of the sensor with his foot. The (agej) ship automatically met the dock and was on standby. At this time, the murderer only had to wait for the opportunity. Because he would take the boat back to his room with the things delivered at 8 o'clock, but this murderer didn't seem to be very lucky, because he happened to have a fatal oversight discovered by Conan and I."
Officer Megure asked curiously: "What is it?"
Conan explained innocently: "It's the waterline. The boat obviously only carries whiskey, ice cubes and a few wine glasses, but the waterline has obviously moved up a lot."
Wu Fan took over the conversation: "Yes, this is the best proof that the murderer is hiding inside the hull."
"The person who stayed in Room 3 and was familiar with the deceased was relatively small. Could it be the murderer..." Mouri Kogoro seemed to have thought of something.
Wu Fan said: "Yes, the murderer is Professor Iwama. Only you could have committed the crime. I'm afraid you told Mr. Kaneda that you wanted to discuss something with him in another room, so you made an appointment on the 8th in advance. Room, right? Then after all the ordered dishes were delivered, you deliberately asked Mr. Arai to buy cigarettes, and you deliberately designated the restaurant’s sold-out brand and asked him to go to the convenience store to buy it. In this way, you could gain immunity for your crime. Less time.”
Iwama retorted: "But I was clearly in room three when the crime happened?"
"I think the sound we heard was a tape recorder," Mouri Kogoro said.
"But even if the sound comes from the tape recorder, it's impossible for the paper door to close by itself, right?"
Mouri Kogoro said: "That's right..."
Wu Fan explained: "Huh, why is this so difficult? It's pretty easy as long as you use a rubber band, a wine bottle, a paper bag with bamboo chopsticks, and ice cubes.
"First, use a rubber band to tighten the door frame of the paper door, then use a paper bag with bamboo chopsticks to roll it into a circle on the other side of the paper door, fix one end of the paper bag with a pin, and then pull the paper door tied with the rubber band to the paper bag Then use pins from the paper bag to fix it, and then just take an ice cube from the dinner plate and put it in the middle of the paper bag and you're done.
"After the ice melted, the tension on the paper bag became smaller and it was broken immediately. The paper door was automatically pulled shut by the rubber band. After Mr. Iwama returned to the guest room, he first put away the rubber band and pins before talking about silencing the tape. , As for the paper bag with bamboo chopsticks, as long as it is thrown into the waterway, the evidence will disappear."
Iwama was sweating profusely and was still arguing: "That's nonsense! You have no evidence at all."
"Evidence? Mr. Arai, when you served the food from the boat, did you spill the caviar on the pufferfish?"
Arai replied: "Yes, I overturned it and accidentally spilled some wood on the boat."
"Mr. Iwama, when you heard Miss Anzai's call and walked out of the guest room, you put on a suit, right? When ordinary people rushed out of the door, "Yu Jilu, do you want a jacket? Of course, if you say yes, Just pretend I didn’t say anything about not wearing anything at all.”
"And you only let your white shirt be stained with pufferfish caviar when you hid in the hull, right?"
Officer Megure said: "Mr. Iwama, can you take off your suit so we can take a look?"
Iwama took off his jacket and said: "Yes, my shirt is stained with caviar [but it was accidentally spilled when I was looking for contact lenses."
"Is that true? Mr. Kaneda left room three before the food was delivered, but he also had caviar on his thumb. Tell me, when did he get it? I think Mr. Kaneda Just when you stabbed him with the knife, you happened to grasp the stain on your shirt, so Mr. Kaneda's fingerprints should be on your shirt now."
Seeing the irrefutable evidence, Iwama knelt down on the ground and said: "Because Kaneda found out that I had published students' papers under my name in the past, he threatened me that if I don't want the matter to be exposed, I must recommend him to be promoted to associate professor when he is selected. Associate Professor, he later went even further and extorted 50 million from me, and I couldn't stand it anymore."
"Actually, I didn't order the caviar. If he hadn't ordered that dish, I would have committed a perfect crime."
System: "Congratulations on successfully solving the case. You have obtained 2 million in cash, 2 ability points, and 500 reputation points."
After the case, Mouri Detective Agency.
Ran Mouri said: "After hearing about the murder, Liu Shuihou's reputation became even greater?"
Wu Fan asked curiously: "Is it the haunted house effect?"
"Maybe, daddy will take me to another restaurant?"
"Okay, as long as someone performs the show, it'll be fine."
The next second, Ran Mouri punched down and knocked down a corner of the table.
"Dad, can't you be more serious? In that case, let me help you pour the wine.
Mouri Kogoro was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat: "No need to bother."
Wu Fan's half-moon eyes: "An angry Xiao Ran is really scary!"
