Conan: Silence in the Dark

"Let's see if there's any other place to get in!" said the policeman who came with him immediately.

"Go and see if the windows on the first floor are open. The housekeeper also asked the servant to check it out immediately.

"It's all closed. "Because the window is nearby, the servant will confirm that he is back in a moment.

"Kick it off!" said Yingli as he ran over at this time.

"Hmm. After the police looked at Linghua, Linghua also nodded in agreement.

"The door is locked. After kicking the door open, Conan glanced at it.

"Hmm. Xiao Jing glanced at a decorative cabinet at the entrance, and she heard the sound of her heartbeat inside, but Xiao Jing didn't plan to break it.

"Where is Mr. Tokita's room, please take us there immediately!" said to the housekeeper because the police didn't know where Tokita Toshiki was

"Please come with me, miss, and I'll take them up first. "

Linghua nodded.

"Mr. Tokita!Mr. Tokita?!".

"The door is not locked. "The police turned the handle after two calls without an answer, and found that the door was not locked, and randomly pushed the door in.

As the door opened, even at the door, Tokita Toshiki could be seen lying to the ground with a fruit knife stuck behind his back.

"Please don't move, the body is still warm!This is the scene of the killing!" said the police after confirming that Toshiki Tokita was dead.

"Child?" At this time, the three children Conan, Xiao Ai, and Xiao Jing were very conspicuous, especially since Conan was already observing the corpse next to the police.

"Isn't it?" Conan thought of something.

"Something bad is happening here, I'll take you outside. Takashi Satsuki, who didn't know when he came with him, said to the three children.

"Uncle policeman, please take a look at the rooms of the other two, maybe something more serious has happened. Xiao Jing looked at Conan's face and knew what Conan had already thought.

"Where's the room for the other two?" Conan asked the butler.

"It's right next door. The housekeeper said truthfully.

"This ?...." because the murder case has just happened, generally speaking, it is dealt with first, and of course the other two people also need to investigate, but there are only two policemen left behind now, so there is some hesitation before the scene is investigated.

"My father is Maori Kogoro, and I also assisted my father in handling the case, so I can ask everyone to go out first. One of the two police officers can stay in the hallway to prevent unrelated people from entering the scene of the sabotage. Of course, Xiao Jing knew that the police were afraid that the murderer would take the opportunity to destroy the clues.

"Well, let's take a look at Biya and Mr. Tanino first, maybe they know something. The police just listened to the housekeeper's words, the two of them were next door, there was such a big movement here, but the two didn't say anything, and they couldn't help but be worried, so they agreed to Xiaojing's proposal.

"Sure enough. "When I opened the door next door, I could see Shinichi Bitani lying on the ground at the same door.

"It looks like he was hit in the head with a blunt object. The police also confirmed Shinichi Bitani's death.

"The murder weapon looks like here. Xiao Jing saw a rectangular stick in the shadow of the chair next to the bed, one end still dyed red.

"What is this?" It was clear that this was not the original thing in this room.

"This should be an ornament to put around the corner of the hallway. After listening to Xiao Ai's words, Xiao Jing also remembered that there was indeed such a modern artwork around the corner.

"Really, please go out first, let's go to Tanino's room again, I hope my hunch doesn't come true. "The police also seem to be aware of something, and once again ask everyone to go out and protect the scene first.

"Finally, here. The police also opened the door after shouting twice.

"Is it strangulation this time? "Tanino still has a rope around his neck, and it can be said that the murderer is really undisguised.

"There is no doubt that the scene is a secret room, there are three corpses in the secret room, and the methods of murder are completely different. "Before the police called for help, the crowd was sitting on the couch downstairs.

"All the candidates...."Yingli, who came a little later, had a headache.

"Mother, these are some of the clues I have summarized in this case. Xiao Jing wrote down the clues found with Conan and Xiao Ai in the notebook and handed it to Yingli (the actual owner of the book and the person who wrote it are Conan).

"Huh?" Ying Li took with some surprise. And everyone present also looked at it with great interest.

"First of all, Toshiki Tokita was stabbed to death. The murder weapon was a fruit knife placed in each room, and it is initially presumed to be a knife in the new room of Biya, because only the knife in Shinichi Shibuyani's room was missing. "

"Then came Shinichi Bitani, who was hit to death by a blunt object. Based on the direction of the blood stain and the longitudinal direction of the wound, it was preliminarily determined to be left-handed, and according to the understanding, Hisao Tanino was left-handed. "

"Finally, there was Hisao Tanino, the cause of death was strangulation. The deceased held a button in his hand, which matched the missing button of Mr. Tokita's coat. "

"From the obvious clue above, the three of them are like killing each other. Xiao Jing said.

"On the surface, this is true, but the dead cannot be resurrected to kill again. "The clue above is clearly a fatal mistake, and whoever died first is clearly wrong.

In other words, some of these clues may be deliberately misled by the murderer. Yingli concluded.

"Yes. This is also the conclusion that Xiao Jing, Conan, and Xiao Ai have come to together.

"Further clues need to be surveyed at the scene, and some need to be identified to be determined, and at the moment my reasoning is more inclined to a fourth person. Xiao Jing didn't tell everything written in the manual.

"When the police arrive, I will check the scene in detail with the police, and the current clues cannot form a complete chain. However, Xiaojing's initial investigation also saved me a lot of trouble. Yingli touched Xiao Jing and nodded in praise.

And what is still written in Conan's small notebook is: 1. There seems to be something pressed under the ashtray in Shinichi Bigu's room. 2. There are reflective things in Hisao Tanino's room. 3. Tohoku Toshiki has two bumps on his head that were caused by the impact. 4. The time when Takashi Satsuki appeared.
