The police asked the man a lot of questions, but the man did not say a word, as if he was really mute. Just as Detective White Bird was frowning, Ye Ling walked over from somewhere.
"I just found something strange over there. It seems to have been left behind by the criminal before he committed the crime.”
As Ye Ling spoke, she showed the police a paper ring made of paper. Ye Ling knew that every time the criminal committed a crime, he would leave something related to playing cards behind. The paper sword in King K of Spades 'hand was at the police station, while the paper flower in Queen Q of Spades' hand was at Fei Yingli's side. As for Dr. Ali, who represented J, this was what they found at the scene.
There had always been different opinions on what this thing was. Some said it was a sword hilt, while others said it was a cane handle. In any case, it was the thing that the soldier held on the poker card. However, in order to avoid exposing her foresight, Ye Ling pretended not to know.
"What is this?" Takagi was a little stunned.
"Paper rings? "Wait, could this be related to the previous case…" White Bird seemed to have suddenly realized something.
After White Bird's reminder, Takagi also reacted. He turned pale with fright and shouted,"" Continuous attacks!"
Panic flashed across the man's face, and Dr. Ali was confused. He asked,"" What consecutive events?"
"Doctor, you don't know." " Police Chief Megure was shot with an arrow during her morning run," Takagi said with a serious expression." Xiaolan's mother ate poisoned chocolate that was sent by someone." A sword made of paper was found at the scene of the attack on the police station, and a paper flower was included in the chocolate that Ms. Fei Yingli ate.”
"That's right, so I'm here today to help out the hospitalized Megure.”Inspector White Bird echoed.
"Oh? "Paper swords, paper flowers, paper rings, they are all related washi…" The doctor couldn't help feeling puzzled.
Ye Ling took the opportunity to say," This is hinting at the poker cards.”
The captured man's expression changed.
Everyone was puzzled. White Bird asked,""What do you mean?"
Ye Ling explained," The sword is the item held by the king above the King of Spades. The flower is the item held by the queen of the Queen of Spades. The paper ring is similar to the sword hilt held by the soldier of the Jack of Spades." In addition, Fei Yingli's word for 'Fei' corresponded to the English word for 'Q', and the word for' Doctor 'could be divided into ten and one, which could also match the word for' Spade J'. May I ask what the full name of Police Department Megami is?”
" His name is Megure Thirteen…" White Bird was shocked." He's the king of poker!”
"This! So the criminals were committing crimes according to the order of the cards?”Takagi was also shocked.
Ye Ling nodded and looked at the crossbow that had fallen to the ground.""It should be. After all, the doctor and the police were both attacked by crossbows. They might have used this crossbow.”
Shiratori thought for a while and decided to report the matter to the police department first, and then inform Maori Kogoro. After all, Fei Yingli was also one of the victims. In the end, he had to bring the criminal back to the police station and interrogate him slowly. There was always a way to pry open his mouth.
When White Bird contacted Uncle Mao Li, Xiao Ai was observing Ye Ling from the side, her eyes filled with confusion.
She felt strange. Ye Ling did not seem to be investigating the case. Instead, he seemed to have predicted the future and then brought everyone closer to the truth step by step. If he didn't know the truth in advance, how could he have guessed that the paper ring was left by the criminal? Most people would think that it was garbage when they saw some paper folding on the ground.
He didn't see the criminal throw the paper ring, so how could he be so sure?
This time, Xiao Ai wasn't on guard. She was just confused and curious.
……
Since Kogoro had informed him of the situation over the phone and said that he would come over immediately, Inspector Shiratori did not immediately take the prisoner to the police station. Instead, he waited on the road for a while. Not long after, Kogoro arrived with Xiaolan and Conan.
"White Bird, the criminal is…Hmm? Zemu? Why is it you?" When Kogoro saw the criminal arrested by the police, he was stunned on the spot. This criminal was actually someone he knew!
Conan was also surprised. A few days ago, he had gone to the restaurant with Mori-san and Aunty Yingli. At that time, this person had served wine. Xiao Lan also recognized him and covered her mouth in surprise." This person, wasn't he in the restaurant a few days ago…"
"Mr. Mao Li, do you know him?”
"His name is Kazuhiro Sawaki, a sommelier. Eili and I have known him for a long time.”As Kogoro answered, he thought of Fei Yingli, who had almost been poisoned to death. He was so angry that he grabbed Sawaki's collar and shouted,"Zemu! Why did you hurt them? When did Yingli ever offend you! You actually poisoned her!"
Initially, Sawaki had remained silent when questioned by the police, but now that he was being interrogated by a familiar face like Maori Kogoro, he finally opened his mouth. "I never thought of killing them."
"But you attacked them!"
"Hehe." Sawaki suddenly smiled strangely." Don't misunderstand. I'm saying that from the King of Spades to the Ace of Spades, I have to attack a total of thirteen people, but the ones I really want to kill are only ten, nine, seven, and two. The rest are just to make up the numbers.”
Just to make up the numbers? Hearing this, everyone could not help but feel their hair stand on end.
This guy was simply insane…
……
Night fell. In a dark room somewhere, the light of the television flickered, and the voice of the host came from inside.
At noon today, the police arrested the 36-year-old sommelier, Sawaki. It was reported that Zemu planned the poker card murder case because he hated four people, and it just so happened that there were numbers in the names of these four people.
In addition, Sawaki also killed the casino dealer, Murakami Joe, who was paroled last week. Because Murakami Joe was arrested and imprisoned by Maori Kogoro, Sawaki attacked the people with numbers in their names around Detective Maori one after another, trying to push the blame to Murakami Joe, who had already been killed...
A black figure sat in front of the television. When he heard the news, he could not help but grin evilly, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.
"Poker murder case? This idea is not bad. I really have to thank you for coming up with such a good idea for me…"
……
The next morning, a yellow-skinned Beetle drove toward the East Capital University Hospital. Since Ye Ling and the doctor had learned that Fei Yingli was hospitalized yesterday, they had agreed to visit her together today. This Beetle was the doctor's car.
After parking the car in the hospital's parking lot, Ye Ling, the doctor, and Haihara Ai got out of the car. After getting the ward number from the front desk, they took the elevator upstairs and knocked on the door.
Soon, the door opened. The person who opened the door was Xiao Lan. She was surprised to see them." Why are you here?”
Ye Ling smiled." Of course I'm here to visit."”
"Yes, I am." "We heard that your mother is in the hospital, so we came to visit."”
A mature female voice came from the ward." Xiaolan, who's here?”
Xiao Lan quickly brought them into the room and introduced them to her mother.
