Feeling very puzzled by Gao Yuan's reaction at this moment, Henggou Zhenshu couldn't help but ask.
"As a participant in the event, it is natural for Ehara Tokio to want to find the organizer of the event, the Night Baron. If, for some reason, he also suspects that he is in love with Miss Sayama, in order to confirm Miss Sayama's identity,
So he entered your room by climbing downstairs to look for clues... Then, when he discovered that Miss Sayama had the clothes of the "Night Baron" in her luggage, it was actually enough to prove that Miss Sayama was the organizer.
Already."
Gao Yuan explained:
"And if you think about it this way, then why did he have to take the clothes away? What does this mean to him?"
"Um……"
Listening to Gao Yuan's analysis, Henggou felt that it made sense, so he nodded and asked Gao Yuan:
"So, what do you think about this matter?"
"Unfortunately, not available at the moment."
Gao Yuan answered candidly, which made Henggou Shenwu stunned. After blinking slowly and thinking, Henggou Shenwu couldn't help but said loudly in surprise:
"Ah? Then why did you say 'that's great' just now!"
Seemingly very angry, Henggou Shenwu looked at Gao Yuan's expression and looked a little distrustful——
In the final analysis, her trust in the famous Mouri Kogoro stems from seeing his miraculous "sleeping reasoning" in person, and although Xiaolan said that the detective in front of her was no less good at reasoning than the Moori
Sir, but so far, he has not had much real impact on solving the case.
Faced with Henggou's inquiry, Gao Yuan naturally gave an explanation:
"Because we can already figure out Ehara Tokio's movements before he fell from the building!"
"What, what do you mean?"
Confused, Henggou asked in confusion about Gao Yuan's statement, so Gao Yuan gave an explanation:
"I think it was at the crime scene of the fireworks display. After Ehara Tokio found out that I was a detective, he realized the reason why I deliberately talked to Miss Sayama. Most likely, he thought that I had suspected the organizer of the event.
Regarding the fact that the person was Miss Sayama, after finishing the inquiry about the incident at that time, Tokio Ehara returned to the hotel earlier than all of us, and began to use the fact that the room he was in happened to be Miss Sayama's room.
With this feature upstairs, he used the rope to turn over and reach Miss Sayama's room, ready to find evidence that Miss Sayama was the organizer of the event.
"After that, for some unknown reason, Tokio Ehara found the 'Night Baron' costume that Ms. Sayama carried in her luggage and chose to take this suit out. And not long after, just like us
As we saw in the end, Tokio Ehara fell from the building for unknown reasons."
"Um……"
Listening to Gao Yuan's statement, Henggou Zhenshu felt that it made sense and nodded. However, soon, he felt that this analysis was not of any substantial help to the case investigation, so he asked:
"So...what does this mean?"
"It means that Tokio Ehara fell from the building after taking his clothes away. As long as we find out why Tokio Ehara took away the clothes and where he went after taking away the clothes, we can figure out the truth about the fall.
.”
Gao Yuan said this.
But in this regard, Henggou Sensu still felt that Gao Yuan's words had nothing of substance, but he did feel that Gao Yuan was right, so Henggou Sensu just nodded silently——
"Now that it has been confirmed that Miss Sayama is the organizer of the event, until everything is investigated clearly, Miss Sayama still has to accept the investigation of our police... As for Mr. Maeda, the attack on the police is a fact after all, so..."
Henggou thought deeply and thought that it would be better to conduct the investigation in accordance with the police's usual policy.
After hearing this, Gao Yuan said:
"The investigation into Ms. Sayama is natural, but Mr. Maeda's attack on the police is over. It is not too late to pursue the investigation. And now, what Miss Sayama and Mr. Maeda have done, it is best not to let the others
It is better to know.”
"Why?"
Henggou frowned slightly and said in confusion.
"Because it's not the right time yet. Since the police's previous questioning of people who participated in the event was to make people think that the police were still suspicious of Ehara Tokio's death, which may have something to do with the people who participated in the event, then if
If it is revealed that Ms. Sayama is the organizer of the event, then the previous actions will be in vain. At the same time, although Mr. Maeda’s actions made things a bit complicated, but because of this sudden accident, in fact, the reverse is also true.
It can be used as a good smoke bomb, right?"
Gao Yuan explained.
"Then what do you think?"
Gao Yuan gave suggestions one after another, but none of them seemed to have any practical effect so far. Henggou Shenwu only felt a little tired and helpless.
"Hmm... I assume it does exist, but I need to investigate Ehara Tokio's belongings before making a judgment."
In this regard, after hearing Henggou Zhenshu's question, Gao Yuan thought for a moment and expressed his thoughts -
In fact, after it was confirmed through experiments that the place where Ewara Tokio fell was not in the room of anyone participating in the activity, Gao Yuan could not help but have an idea. However, since this was just a simple feeling, there was no evidence to prove it.
So Gao Yuan was still thinking about further investigating first.
But now, with the whereabouts of Ewara Tokio from the time he returned from the fireworks display until he fell down, it is now known that Ewara Tokio suspected that he had stolen the "Night Baron" costume that Sayama Akiko was carrying.
After this strange action, Gao Yuan's suspicion couldn't help but become stronger, so he simply proposed this suggestion to Henggou Zenwu.
And this idea is——
Are the people who came to participate in this event because of the legendary so-called "Night Baron" virus really only the ten people who were officially selected to participate in the event?
Just as he had taken the place of Dr. Agasa and the other three, and brought Tie Zhuyu and Xiao Ai to attend, in fact, there were three other people, Shion Kashiwagi, Shion Matsunaga, and Chiyo Usami, who also checked into the hotel with him and others.
Similarly, although on the surface there are only three spots on our team, in fact, there are actually six people on our team.
When necessary, he can ask Kashiwagi Shion and others to help him. In this way, is it considered as foreign aid within the rules?
And now, since when Ehara Tokio fell, everyone who participated in the event on the surface had an alibi, is it possible that in addition to the people on the surface, there were other people who were involved in the incident?
Do the people attracted by the "Night Baron" also exist in this hotel?
After all, according to the original work, anyone with a little in-depth understanding of computers knows about the computer virus "Night Baron". It can be seen that for so many computer practitioners on the Internet, once they know about this activity,
Even if you are not selected to be a participant in this event, is it impossible to come here and have a look?
What's more, who can tell whether other people participating in this event have privately contacted others to participate in the event?
Moreover, originally this was just Takato's guess, but since knowing Ehara Tokio's possible actions after returning from the fireworks display, where would he go since he did not return directly to his room after leaving Sayama Akiko's room?
Woolen cloth?
From this, thinking of the above speculation, if there is an assistant of Ehara Tokio who also lives in this hotel, then he goes directly to the assistant after leaving, which seems to be able to explain a little bit about Ehara Tokio's career.
for--
Otherwise, Gao Yuan really couldn't imagine why Tokio Ehara would fall from the hotel while wearing the costume of "Night Baron", but the place of fall was not in the rooms where the participants of this event lived.
After all, Tokio Ehara was wearing the costume of "Night Baron". Based on this alone, it is difficult to say that it had nothing to do with this event. However, the falling experiment proved that his fall had nothing to do with the other participants.
, then Gao Yuan can only assume that there is someone related to this event, but not an official participant in the event.
Of course, in addition to the above ideas, Gao Yuan also had other ideas when he proposed to investigate Ehara Tokio's things——
Because, in addition to his apparent identity as a computer programmer, Ehara Tokio also has the identity of a hacker. If such a person can find the computer or network account he uses, then Gao Yuan may also be able to learn from these things.
Find other clues.
Of course, in this way, my initial suspicion about Masahiko Michowaki might just be due to my sensory distrust of this person.
He may have something to do with the fireworks display incident, but for now, if we want to connect him with Ehara Tokio's falling case, we can only rely on what the hotel waiter said, that Ehara Tokio had an affair with the deceased at the fireworks display.
The quarrel cannot completely connect the two events.
——Hey, I’m really confused...
With such emotion in his heart, Gao Yuan currently feels extremely difficult about this incident. I am afraid that more and more clues are needed to solve this incident.
However, just when Gao Yuan was thinking like this, Henggou Zhenshu, who was considering whether to agree to Gao Yuan's request after listening to Gao Yuan's words, thought for a moment, but received a message from his subordinates——
The police officers who went to investigate the victim of the brown-haired woman at the fireworks display found the room that the woman rented in the Izu Princess Hotel!
Therefore, Yokomori asked that Satoshi Maeda and Akiko Sayama stay in the room for the time being and not come out, and arranged for police officers to be on duty in the corridors of the three floors, 19, 20, and 21, where the event participants lived.
, Henggou thought for a while, and finally took Gao Yuan to the room rented by the female victim on the 18th floor.
As for Xiao Ai and Tie Zhuyu, Gao Yuan asked them to go back to their rooms and rest first.
Arriving at the room rented by the victim, looking at the relatively simple furnishings in the room, the police officers who arrived first had basically completed their investigation of the situation in the room——
"The name the deceased used when he checked into this hotel was Chiharu Orimoto, but we did not find any identification documents related to the deceased in the room. We only found the deceased's suitcase here, which contained some clothes and a laptop.
.Other than that, there is no other discovery.”
After a police officer saw Henggou Sanwu coming here, he reported the results of the investigation to Henggou Sanwu:
"By the way, we also found a key on the ground. I don't know what it was used to open."
In response to this, Henggou Shenwu nodded silently, feeling that even if the identity of the deceased was found, it would not be of much help to the case. After all, the deceased was killed at a fireworks display, not in this hotel.
But after hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but think of something, and asked the police officer:
"Can I see this key?"
"ah?"
Hearing this, the police officer who reported the report was a little surprised. After looking at Gao Yuan who was asking the question, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Henggou Zhensu, as if he was seeking Henggou Zhensu's opinion.
Henggou Shenwu nodded silently, acquiescing to Gao Yuan's behavior, so the police officer nodded and responded:
"Give."
So, the police officer handed a key in a transparent evidence bag to Gao Yuan with his white-gloved hand. Gao Yuan also put on his white gloves, and he looked at the key——
As a result, Gao Yuan was suddenly stunned:
"This seems to be the key to this hotel room?"
As he said that, as if he had thought of something, Gao Yuan took out the key from the transparent evidence bag, went directly to the door of the room, and tried to insert the key into the door lock——
With a "click" sound, the door lock responded and locked with the turn of the key.
Suddenly, everyone present was stunned:
"It's actually the key to this room!"
Therefore, Gao Yuan hurriedly asked:
"Have the police found the room key on the deceased before?"
"No."
Shaking his head, the police officer replied:
"Just because nothing was found on the deceased, it has become a big problem to find the identity of the deceased."
In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but said:
"Visitors here cannot leave their rented hotel without taking their keys with them. Since the key is not on the deceased's body, it can only be taken away by the murderer. But now the key appears in the room..."
Speaking of this, Gao Yuan hurriedly asked:
"Is there anything missing in the room?"
"this……"
But when Gao Yuan asked this, the police officers present looked at each other. After all, no one knew what should be here.
Therefore, knowing that the police officer was indeed unlikely to know what was missing in the room, Gao Yuan could only put the matter aside and asked instead:
"What about the deceased's computer? Has it been checked?"
"Because the computer is locked with a password and our technicians haven't come over yet, so..."
When listening to the police officer explaining this, Gao Yuan immediately said:
"Then, let me try!"
Because the two incidents have always been a deadlock, and now there are clues that may be in front of him, Gao Yuan is naturally eager to investigate.
Therefore, with Henggou Zhenwu's approval, Gao Yuan obtained the deceased's computer. Under the watchful eye of Henggou Zhenwu, Gao Yuan successfully bypassed the computer password lock, directly entered the computer system, and began to analyze the contents.
Investigate, and then——
"No, this computer has been connected to a device before. It seems to be a digital camera, but..."
With that said, Gao Yuan retrieved the data interaction between the computer and the external device and found some photos copied from the external device.
Judging from the content, it seems to be about a fireworks display.
As Gao Yuan quickly browsed these photos, Gao Yuan soon noticed something was wrong in one of the photos——
Is it possible that there was a third deceased person?
