In this situation, as the gangsters launched successive attacks, they have successfully attacked multiple targets including themselves, and this time they even killed Mr. Asahi Hiroki. The difficulty of this incident has made me feel extremely nervous.
He had a headache, not to mention that according to the poker tips, at least eight more people would be the target of this gangster. It was really hard to say how many people would die by then.
But at this time, when Officer Megure was feeling troubled about this matter, Kudo Shinichi's appearance made him immediately show an expression as if he had received strong support, and he suddenly became full of confidence.
He shouted Kudo Shinichi's name excitedly into the phone, his tone full of trust in Kudo Shinichi.
In this regard, when they heard that Kudo Shinichi was actually at the door of the villa belonging to Mr. Asahi Hiroki where he and others were now, everyone on the side also showed their own expressions at the appearance of Kudo Shinichi -
—
Among them, Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru were as surprised as Inspector Megure by the appearance of Kudo Shinichi.
"What? Detective boy!"
After hearing the name "Kudo Shinichi", Mouri Kogoro had a look of surprise on his face. He couldn't help but muttered something like this, but seeing how excited Officer Megure and the others were about his appearance, Mouri
Kogoro couldn't help but straighten his collar, as if he wanted to raise his overall aura, showing that even Kogoro Mouri, the famous detective, would definitely not lose to Kudo Shinichi's aura.
As for Gao Yuan, because he knew that Xiao Ai had promised Conan to give him the antidote, Gao Yuan roughly expected that Conan would not miss this event and planned to return to Kudo Shinichi's appearance to participate.
What caught Gao Yuan in the case was that he didn't expect that he would choose to take the antidote so quickly...
And soon, as the police officer guarding the door received the order from Officer Megure, Kudo Shinichi came in. After a while, in the room where Asahi Hiroki was killed, wearing a gray-blue suit
Kudo Shinichi, who was wearing casual clothes, arrived here. Looking at the people already in the room, Kudo Shinichi showed a confident smile and said hello to everyone.
"Brother Kudo, it's been so long! Where have you been these days? Why is there no news at all?"
In this regard, after seeing Kudo Shinichi in person, Officer Megure's expression of surprise became more obvious, and then he curiously asked Kudo Shinichi about his current situation.
Hearing this, Kudo Shinichi casually replied:
"Because I have been busy with commissions, so I don't have much time... Ah, by the way, Officer Megure, I have basically understood the incident this time. Is this Mr. Asahi Hiroki killed here?
"
As he spoke, Kudo Shinichi looked extremely serious and asked Officer Megure about Asahi Hiroki's situation——
After all, during the day, Gao Yuan relied on his observation and analysis to discover that the gangster was trying to murder Mr. Asahi Hiroki by replacing the eye drops used by Asahi Hiroki. Then in order to protect the safety of Mr. Asahi Hiroki, the police should have
He was protected, but Asahi Hiroki was still killed in this situation.
In response to this, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but curiously asked about the situation.
Therefore, Takagi Wataru told Kudo Shinichi the situation he just told everyone.
Later, after listening to Takagi Wataru's story, Kudo Shinichi, like Takato before, walked around the area where broken glass was scattered on the ground, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom, looked out the window, and asked. At that time, the police
After hearing the noise and breaking into the room, did you notice where the murderer shot the arrow?
When he heard that even Kudo Shinichi asked this question, Takagi Wataru couldn't help but be a little surprised. He glanced at Gao Yuan who had not spoken much because of Kudo Shinichi's arrival, and then said what he had said before, indicating that he was rushing to the side.
When the police officers entered the scene, they saw the murderer riding a motorcycle on the street outside the villa courtyard wall and about to leave.
So, after getting this answer, Kudo Shinichi continued to look out the window, his expression looking a little solemn——
"The murderer shot an arrow into the room of this villa from the street. It should be impossible to hurt Mr. Hiroki!"
Seriously, after roughly visually measuring the distance from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room to the street, as well as the height of the wall in the middle, Kudo Shinichi came to this conclusion.
After hearing this conclusion, Gao Yuan on the side couldn't help but nod silently, because this judgment coincided with his own.
Immediately, seeing that Officer Megure and others present were puzzled by Kudo Shinichi's statement, Takato began to explain:
"Pay attention to the floor-to-ceiling windows in this room. There is only one break in it. It was obviously smashed out from the outside with rocks."
As he spoke, Gao Yuan looked at Takagi Sheba. Suddenly, as if he realized something, Takagi Sheba hurriedly took out an evidence bag with a stone in it and said to Officer Memu and everyone:
"That's right. We did find a stone at the scene. Judging from its location, it should be the same stone used to break the glass!"
Seeing this, Gao Yuan nodded, and when he was about to continue speaking, Kudo Shinichi continued:
"So, since the only hole in the window was smashed with stones from the outside, it is obvious that if the arrow from outside is to be shot into the house and hit Mr. Hiroki, it can only be shot through this only hole. But.
Look carefully at the distance between this window and the street outside. In this night, you have to shoot the arrow from there, and then you have to go through the hole that was smashed in the window, and you have to hit Mr. Hiroki inside the house.
,Don’t you think this kind of thing is too difficult?”
Suddenly, listening to Kudo Shinichi's words, Officer Megure and others couldn't help but look at the window at the scene, and after judging the distance of the street facing the window from here, they all felt that Kudo Shinichi
That makes sense.
"really……"
In response, Officer Megu couldn't help but nodded and affirmed.
"Compared to the fact that the arrow was shot from outside the window and hit Mr. Asahi Hiroki, I think..."
At this time, Gao Yuan seemed thoughtful and walked to the wall to the left of the window. There was a whole wall of wardrobes, and he looked at Asahiroki who was left at the scene and was circled in white.
From where he fell to the ground, Gao Yuan went directly to a wardrobe door and opened it——
I saw that the closet was empty. After a closer look, I found a "9 of Spades" playing card lying in the closet!
"Sure enough, the murderer was not Mr. Asahi Hiroki who was shot outside, but hid in the closet in the bedroom beforehand. When Mr. Asahi Hiroki came back here, the murderer successfully attacked and killed Mr. Asahi Hiroki with an arrow.
He fled the scene through the window and then smashed the glass with a stone, attracting the attention of the police!"
Looking at the playing cards found in the wardrobe, Gao Yuan analyzed this.
At the same time, looking at the "9 of Spades" playing card that appeared next to Mr. Asahi Hiroki again, Kudo Shinichi frowned slightly and couldn't help but say:
"Sure enough...it seems that there may be more than one murderer..."
