Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 92: The Murderer in the Darkness

"You already know who the murderer is?"

"Is this true, Detective Kido?"

In the living room of the hotel, everyone sat around the dining table and looked at Gao Cheng eagerly.

"I don't know who it is yet," Gao Cheng shook his head and said with certainty, "but the murderer is indeed among us."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mori Kogoro frowned, "We were all together when the garage caught fire, only you and Conan were outside! Are you going to say that you are the murderer?"

"Ms. Oki can be killed even if the murderer is not in the garage," Gao Cheng put Mr. Fujisawa's card on the table, "Think about it, everyone, the murderer tampered with the car in advance, it was not just to trap us here, Also for the purpose of killing people, Ms. Oki used a lighter to illuminate the dark back seat of the car, and the volatile gasoline was ignited."

Uncle Mao Li read the text on the card with everyone: "Could it be..."

"Yes, Mr. Fujisawa received this card yesterday. The murderer set a trap in the garage. It was supposed to be used to kill Mr. Fujisawa, but Ms. Oki disrupted his plan."

Gao Cheng observed everyone's expressions, and continued: "Miss Omu was murdered and silenced, but it gave me a lot of clues. In fact, she told me one thing before. Although I don't know who the murderer is, but It should be easy to find if you spend some time investigating."

"What did Miss Oki tell you?" Uncle Mao Li gritted his teeth, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Don't the murderer know about it?"

Gao Cheng ignored the uncle, and his eyes fell on Hu Shiyan, who was sweating profusely.

The murderer was the man with glasses, that's right, the two incidents before and after all pointed to this boyfriend of Ayako Oki.

"Boom!" It began to rain heavily in the night outside the hotel, and the rolling thunder roared continuously. Gao Cheng and Conan went to look in the glasses man's room, but they didn't find the glasses man's test paper.

"Miss Oki should have come in at noon yesterday, maybe she found something from the test paper," Conan thought, "If I guessed correctly, there should be no answers on the test paper, so Miss Oki would doubt it. he."

After a pause, Conan asked Gao Cheng next to him, "Kito, don't you think about it again?"

"You should also know that even if you find the test paper, it's just evidence and it doesn't explain anything."

Gao Cheng put his hands in his pockets and returned to the living room. Only Uncle Mori, Mr. Fujisawa and the fat woman were sitting there looking tired.

"How is it, Detective Kido?" Mr. Fujisawa cheered up and asked concerned, "Is there any result?"

"I already know what Ms. Omu found," Gao Cheng responded, wondering, "What about the others?"

"We helped prepare coffee and cold drinks," Xiao Lan walked into the living room with a tray, and put the cups on the table, "because everyone is so sleepy."

The man with glasses followed behind Xiao Lan with a gloomy expression, gritted his teeth secretly when he saw Gao Cheng.

"Okay," Uncle Mao Li didn't have a good face, and urged Gao Chengdao, "Now that you know it, tell me quickly, I want to see who the murderer is..."

"Crack!" Before Maori finished speaking, the lights in the room suddenly went out, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness.

"power cut?"

"Is it because of thunder?"

"Looks like it tripped," the waitress yelled from the kitchen, "Sorry, I'll fix it right away!"

"Where's the switch? Use my lighter to light it."

As everyone in the living room fell into chaos, the man with glasses had a cold light in his eyes in the darkness, and raised the corners of his mouth. He took out a handful of ice picks wrapped in cloth from his arms, and walked towards Gao Cheng by the window in front of him step by step while taking advantage of the chaos.

Conan was about to find the switch with everyone,

Suddenly noticing the flashing light of the ice cone in the darkness, the whole person was startled, and when he turned his head, he saw a figure in the chaos approaching Gao Cheng.

"Kirodo..."

"That's it." Gao Cheng stood still and let the man with glasses lean over. He didn't stagger his body until the ice pick pierced him and grabbed the man's wrist with his backhand. Before the man with glasses was surprised, he made a fist with the other hand and struck out.

"boom!"

The light came on again, and the man in glasses gritted his teeth tightly, sweating profusely in front of everyone, his glasses had been blown away, one eye was black and blue, and half of his face was red from the beating.

"Hu ten?"

Everyone looked at Hu Shiyan who was holding an ice pick in surprise: "What's going on?"

"Could it be that he is the murderer?"

"Mr. Hu Shi," Gao Cheng grabbed the ice pick and pushed the man with glasses away, and said coldly, "Miss Omu was also silenced by you, right? At that time, you cared about her chasing her to the bathroom, but it was actually designed to let her go to the garage to find that For this book, the first edition of the book was used as a hush money, so Miss Omu suddenly changed her mouth about the murderer, but Miss Omu never thought that you wanted to kill her."

Hu Shiyan turned his head away, gritted his teeth and remained silent.

"But," Xiaolan said eagerly, "Miss Ayako is his girlfriend, why..."

"Xiaolan, he is the only one who can make Miss Omu change his mind." Gao Cheng looked at the man with glasses who defaulted, "After all, Miss Omu knows something she shouldn't know, even if she is a boyfriend and girlfriend, it's nothing. Miss didn't see this clearly, and thought he really wouldn't kill anyone."

"how come……"

"Even if Ms. Oki was killed by him," Mao Li said with a look of suspicion that you thought I was stupid, "how can Boss Jingu fall off the cliff? At that time, he stayed here with Xiaolan and the others all the time, and he couldn't start the car at all! He has ample alibi!"

As he was talking, Uncle Mao Li suddenly stared at Gao Cheng suspiciously: "If you ask me, you seem to be the most suspected in this case. You didn't have an alibi when the two cases happened, and your grandfather was also the former boss of the boss. Teacher, there might be some motive for the murder...

"Speaking of which, Hu Shi is not the only one who can make Miss Oki change his mind. I remember that you went to the bathroom alone to find her at that time." Uncle Mao Li became more and more suspicious.

Gao Cheng's face twitched at the corner of his mouth: Please, didn't you see that Hu Shiyan has already acquiesced?

"Uncle," Conan couldn't stand it anymore, and interrupted Mori Kogoro with an embarrassed expression, "I can testify to Brother Kido, I was with him at that time..."

"Shut up!" Mori Kogoro punched Conan hard on the head, and snorted, "Young brat's words don't count!"

Gao Cheng raised his forehead, didn't talk nonsense with his uncle, and quickly continued: "Generally, a murderer can only create a few types of alibi, such as time techniques, space techniques, and writing techniques. Mr. Hu Shi also used special techniques to create alibi for himself. Alibi...

"That's right, Mr. Huju can still make the car fall off the cliff even if he is not on the scene!"

"It's alright if you're not there?" Several mystery novelists watched Gao Cheng's reasoning in a daze. They didn't have much idea of ​​what a famous detective is like in reality. However, when they are in the case at this moment, they seem to see Sherlock Holmes in reality. so-so.

Maybe not as powerful as Sherlock Holmes, but the temperament of a famous detective is particularly convincing and yearning...
