Looking at the live broadcast, Heye said with some horror.
No matter how you look at it, the host Takayuki Harada on the screen is indeed dead, but the live broadcast does not stop. The silk scarf of the deceased in the camera has been torn off when he struggled, revealing what looked like strangulation marks on his neck.
"How could such a thing happen!"
Hattori was also a little unbelievable.
"What kind of super power is there? This must be some kind of trick!"
"But didn't we see that the host was strangled to death by the silk scarf controlled by the superpower!"
He Ye said and looked at Gao Yuan, "Mr. Mingzhi also saw it."
However, Gao Yuan did not respond, but continued to watch the TV, thoughtfully - even if the incident happened, the live broadcast was still going on? Are the TV station and the director so caring?
"You're talking nonsense. I don't believe in any superpowers."
On the screen, the camera showed Kudo Shinichi, facing Jiro Washimi, and retorted.
"Do you want to insult me too?"
"This is a murder. It is an impossible crime that happened in front of the camera. There must be some method. I will definitely reveal the truth. There is only one truth!"
Kudo Shinichi made such a declaration.
"Yes, this must be a murder case using some method, and the murderer must be the five people who were present at the time!"
Hattori Heiji heard what Kudo Shinichi said on the screen and also said the same.
"It's not five, it's four."
Takato interrupted at this time and said that he understood the five people Hattori Heiji was talking about - the four staff members who ran on stage, and the superpower Jiro Washi.
After hearing this, Hattori calmed down, thought about it, and then expressed his agreement.
"Yes, there are four. That person can't possibly commit the crime."
"What five or four? What are you talking about?"
Heye looked at them chatting with confusion and raised questions.
"Idiot! How can superpowers kill people! The deceased was killed by other means."
Hattori said.
"However, we also saw the host's silk scarf strangling him and then he fell to the ground and died."
He Ye continued to ask.
"That's acting."
Gao Yuan explained, "From the moment the host made a painful expression and then pretended to be pulled up and fell to the ground, it was all staged."
"Then how do you explain the silk scarf? Aren't the two ends of the silk scarf pulled up by some force?"
"About this, it's magic."
Gao Yuan continued to explain, "You still remember the spoon magic at the beginning of the show?"
"Well, you said that spoon is a special prop."
"That prop spoon is made of memory alloy."
Hattori Heiji then explained.
"Memory metal is generally greatly affected by temperature. It is in a certain state at a certain temperature. When the temperature changes, the state will change, but when the temperature returns to the original state, the state will return to the original state. This kind of prop spoon was originally curved.
Just straighten it before performing. When performing, rub your fingers together to generate heat, and the spoon will return to its bend."
"The same goes for this scarf. I think there should be memory metal in the scarf. The host pretended to be strangled by the scarf, and used the body temperature of his hands and neck to deform the memory metal, making it look like
It’s the illusion that the silk scarf is being pulled up by invisible forces.”
Gao Yuan explained the scarf technique.
"As for the strangulation marks on the neck, just ask the makeup artist to make such marks in advance and then cover them with a silk scarf."
"But if everything is just an act as you say, then the host should still be alive?"
He Ye still has many questions.
"The key was when the four staff rushed to the stage to check on him after he fell to the ground.
"He Ye, you should still remember that after the four people ran up, the host suddenly made a painful sound, and then fell down motionless, right?"
Hattori explained.
"That's right, what's going on?"
Heye asked.
"The host died at that time. He was injected with poison and killed by one of the four staff members who rushed to the stage!"
Hattori Heiji said, "So the murderer can only be among those four people."
"Judging from the rapid death rate, it must be potassium chloride. Excessive intravenous injection can lead to cardiac arrest and sudden death. This is also a commonly used method of capital punishment."
Gao Yuan added, and then looked at the screen. Judging from the existing clues, the murderer should be that person.
On the screen, the live broadcast was actually continuing. Kudo Shinichi also stated the same reasoning as Takato and Hattori during the live broadcast, and pointed the suspicion at the four staff members, and pointed out that they and the deceased all had one or more connections.
Or less hatred:
Mr. Yu Ohta and Mr. Toto Nakamura, who served as assistant directors, were severely punished by the deceased because Kudo Shinichi happened to see them getting the wrong drinks backstage.
Assistant Ms. Mizutani Asako. Because Kudo Shinichi also happened to encounter the deceased harassing Ms. Mizutani backstage.
Miss Lin Shizi, the assistant of the deceased, because when Mao Lilan asked the deceased for his signature, she did not bring him a pen, so the assistant was severely scolded by the deceased.
"In this case, it's really no surprise who is the murderer."
Hattori Heiji said after listening to Kando Shinichi’s story.
But at this time, Gao Yuan combined with Kudo Shinichi's narration of the grudges between the four people and the deceased, and fully understood - the murderer was indeed the same person!
Looking at Gao Yuan with a clear expression, Hattori couldn't help but say.
"Brother Detective, it seems you have figured out who the murderer is."
Gao Yuan took a sip of water from the cup and looked calm and relaxed.
"There are two hints. One is the order in which the four people rushed onto the stage; the other is what the murder weapon is."
After receiving this hint, Hattori thought for a moment and then smiled.
"So that's what happened! Brother, I have you!"
At this time, on the screen, Kudo Shinichi had not yet deduced who the murderer was, but instead continued to argue with the person with super powers. Regarding the killing of host Takayuki Harada, Washijiro admitted that he had used
He was killed by super powers, but Kudo Shinichi repeatedly stated that he was not even a suspect.
In anger, Washijiro made a request to perform again, and the person he wanted to kill this time was Maori Ran, who had been following Kudo Shinichi from just now!
The same scene played out again, the same silk scarf, the same two ends of the silk scarf that seemed to be pulled, the same suffocating expression, and then fell to the ground.
This time, after Mao Lilan fell to the ground, a figure rushed out from the background. He was a middle-aged uncle with a mustache.
Seeing this middle-aged uncle, Gao Yuan undoubtedly recognized him. He was Mao Lilan's father, Mao Li Kogoro.
He came to Kudo Shinichi and shouted why he didn't stop him, while Washimi Jiro on the side had a proud expression again, showing that his super power was indeed true, but this time, Mao Lilan woke up.
So, Kudo Shinichi explained the performance just now and the secret of magic in the scarf. From then on, the live broadcast of the showdown between the famous detective and the superpower became the live broadcast of Kudo Shinichi's reasoning to solve the case!
Kudo Shinichi pointed out that the purpose of this live showdown was actually to play a prank on Mr. Washimi according to the script, and Mr. Washimi had nothing to do with the murder case.
And the final reasoning is the same as what Gao Yuan and Hattori thought, the murderer is the assistant Miss Lin Shizi.
She was the first one to rush onto the stage, and the murder weapon was the pen she carried with her. At that time, Mao Lilan went to find the deceased to sign an autograph, but Miss Lin Shizi was clearly there but did not take the pen. As an assistant, how could she not
What about the pen? Because she was actually carrying an injection pen as the murder weapon at the time, so she couldn't take it out!
"This Kudo Shinichi is nothing special. Only now are we finding out who the murderer is."
Hattori said, "Detective brother, if you go to Tokyo to be a detective, you will probably be more famous than him."
Gao Yuan did not respond, because now, the settlement panel appeared in front of him.
"The reasoning is over, let's start closing the case."
