(PS: The next chapter will end this incident. The technique will be revealed in the next chapter. Thinking about the technique gives me a headache. Everyone, give me a wave of gifts.))
In the living room, everyone was worried. The fear brought by the bandaged man lingered in everyone's hearts.
[Damn it, what's going on? Why can't all the clues be connected?】
Conan sat on the sofa, feeling so uncomfortable that he wanted to go crazy. No, there must be more clues.
"Conan, where are you going?" Lan wanted to stop Conan.
"The cause of Ikeda Tomoko's death has been investigated. She was strangled to death from behind with something like a cloth. Then, she was thrown out of the window of the last utility room on the second floor.”Ping Ci said faintly,"I'm sorry."
"Did you see Zhijiazi fall from above?”ColCollatz Hiroki shouted.
"No, what we saw was the bandage monster.”
"What is it? The bandaged man has appeared again?" Collatz Hiroki's expression changed drastically.
"What should we do? Why don't we all stay in the living room tonight? Otherwise, what if the bandaged man appears again?”Ryoichi Takahashi said in horror.
[They're all in the living room?]
Hiraji sneered,'This Takahashi Ryoichi really has a good plan. This way, when dawn comes, he'll have a perfect alibi and get away with it.' However, this also showed his attitude. This guy should stop.
"I'll go get the bedding.”
"Lingzi, I'll go with you.”
Collatz and Ayako went to get the bedding. They were going to spend the night in the living room.
Hiraji went out from the back door to the kitchen window and looked up. The window of the utility room was not big, and it was probably only big enough to fit Ikeda Tomoko's body.
The window of the kitchen was slightly separated from the storeroom on the second floor, so he could only hear the sound and did not see Ikeda Tomoko's body fall.
However, there was no doubt that Ikeda Chikako was thrown down from the utility room by Takahashi Ryoichi.
As for the method of killing Ikeda Chikako, it was probably to use Atsuko's death to invite her to the utility room, then strangle her with bandages and throw stones downstairs.
This method was very simple. It was definitely not a C-rank mission required by the system.
The method that really needed to be cracked was the method Takahashi Ryoichi used to kill Ota Sei. This was the most crucial.
"Heiji-gege, have you thought of something?”
Conan suddenly stuck his head out of the window of the utility room.
Ping Ji glanced at Conan."What are you curious about? Go back to sleep."”
[Damn it, I can't count on that Hattori guy anymore.】
Conan ran around the villa again. He couldn't figure it out. Why did the strange man in bandages want Ota Masaru and Ikeda Tomoko? Why did he kill them without any motive?
He returned to the back door and was about to open it when he suddenly froze.
There was a nail hole on the door, the size of a nail. From the hole, it seemed that there was something like a nail deeply embedded in it.
"F * ck!"
Taira suddenly cursed under his breath, and a bitter smile appeared on his face."It seems that my intelligence has deteriorated after transmigrating. I didn't expect to discover such a simple mechanism until now.”
Suddenly, he turned around and ran toward the grove in front of the back door.
After running for about five minutes, Taira suddenly stopped. He looked at a small tree that was about 1.5 meters tall in front of him and his eyes flashed. As expected.
There was a very long steel wire tied to the top of the tree. At the end of the steel wire, a nail was tightly tied to it. There was also a rope under the tree trunk. It was not very long, and one end had traces of being burned.
"There should be another rope somewhere else.”
Hiraji walked back in the direction of the villa. After taking a few steps, a smile appeared on his face.
Inside the grass, there was not only a rope fixed to the ground, but also a windproof kerosene lamp, still burning.
"Since the back door opened automatically, the mechanism must be the same.”
Inside the villa!
"What? You already know who the murderer is and how he killed her?”Conan shouted in shock.
He was still confused. Hattori had already found out who the murderer was. How was that possible?
"Brat, why do I feel like you don't want me to find the murderer?”Taira looked at Conan suspiciously.
"Conan, I can't disturb Brother Ci from solving the case.”
Lan glared at Conan from the sofa.
"I'm sorry, Sister Xiaolan.”
"No, I'm apologizing to Brother Hiratsu.”
"I'm sorry, brother Hiraji.”
Conan said reluctantly, feeling very unhappy. Lan, that guy!
"You said you found the murderer? Wasn't the murderer the bandage freak? Did you find out where he is?”Collatz asked in surprise.
"If that's the case, he shouldn't be able to escape if we go over with a group of people.”Takahashi Ryoichi said excitedly.
However!
Hiraji sat on the sofa and did not move.
"I didn't say the murderer was the bandage freak.”
What was that?
Everyone was shocked and looked at Hiraji in confusion.
"The murderer is you, Takahashi Ryoichi.”
Boom!
Everyone's mind buzzed, and their faces were filled with shock.
"This... "How is this possible? When the bandaged man appeared, I was the first one to appear in front of everyone, right behind Collatz.”Takahashi Ryoichi quickly waved his hand and explained with a silly smile.
Hiroki Collatz nodded.
"Indeed, everyone was there when the bandaged man first appeared, but it was just a doll. It was an illusion created by hanging a string from the utility room. The purpose was to make us think that the bandaged man was an outsider.”
Boom!
Conan widened his eyes and looked at Heiji in horror. That's right. If that was the case, then many suspicious points could be cleared up. This Hattori guy…
"After doing all this, put away the doll and pretend to be surprised. After killing Ikeda Tomoko, you did the same thing to create an illusion and an alibi for yourself. Don't you think that Ryoichi Takahashi was the last to appear both times?”
Everyone looked at Takahashi Ryoichi because it was the truth.
[That's right, once might be a coincidence, but twice might not be. But when did Hattori suspect him? No, there was a fatal mistake.】
Conan suddenly frowned.
"Mr. Hiraji, have you forgotten that the window of the utility room is not big? If I want to throw the doll over and then retrieve it, I will definitely have to crawl out. However, look at my body size. I can't get out at all.”Ryoichi Takahashi laughed foolishly.
[That's right, this is the mistake.】Conan thought seriously.
