Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 238: Murderer Lingxiang

At 1:30 in the morning, Ezomatsu found an old man who lived nearby after walking around the village.

"The only ones left in this village are old people like me." The old man sat on the sofa in the living room with blank eyes. "How could he kill someone?"

"There is only one way to enter the village from the outside, and outsiders can't hide in the village."

"Did you see any suspicious people when the incident happened?" Ezomatsu asked.

"No," the old man looked out the window tremblingly, "but I did see a will-o'-the-wisp, just at the time when Xue Yasha appeared."

"Woman's fire?"

"There's nothing wrong with that, it's the will-o'-the-wisp brought by Yuki Yasha."

The old man suddenly hugged his head in pain, and began to speak incoherently: "It's at the comfort monument at the head of the bridge, it must be Xue Yasha who came out to kill again..."

Gao Cheng walked to the door of the main building, watching the old man leave and gradually disappear into the night snow.

There is a legend of Yuki Yasha in this village itself, which is why Kazusei Himuro has the work worth 100 million yuan, and even a TV station as far away as Tokyo specially went to this small village in Hokkaido to shoot exterior scenes.

Legend has it that a young woman returned to this snow-covered Beibing village with her child as if fleeing, but was not accepted by the villagers, and even her family refused to let her go home. Finally, she died in the heavy snow due to hunger and cold. Transformed into a snowy Yaksha, he will kill people every time it snows heavily.

"Although so many years have passed," the old man's choked voice seemed to still echo in the villa, "people's indifference and indifference still make Xue Yasha hold grudges until now..."

"It can't be true, can it?" Sonoko's voice trembled with fright.

"It's true or false, it's just that someone used the legend to kill people."

Gao Cheng walked out of the living room, reviewed the incident again, and suddenly stopped in the corridor.

The painting of Yuki Yasha in the corridor is still in place, but Himuro's self-portrait has gone somewhere...

"Did someone take the painting away before?" Gao Cheng looked at Yuanzi suspiciously.

Yuanzi shook his head in confusion: "Could it be taken to the other building?"

"Impossible, that painting is worth 50 million yuan, and there is surveillance here, so no one will mess around... And there is a masterpiece worth 100 million yuan here..."

"Kirodo-kun! Sonoko!" Truth ran over and shouted, "Why are you still here? Something happened?"

"what?"

Not far from the entrance of the main building, all the people who had stayed in the living room were surrounded by a broken snowman. Ezomatsu and Tokitsu Junya worked together to dig Akashi photographer out of the snowman.

"His body is completely frozen, and it seems that he has been dead for a long time," Ezosong said in a deep voice to everyone after examining the body. , the only Akashi who didn't have an alibi was killed before Rie Kano."

"How did this happen?" The director and the others saw Ezomatsu's suspicious gaze and asked anxiously, "Officer, didn't you also see it? We were all at the annex when Garner was killed!"

"I didn't expect that," Shi Jin Junzai also squatted beside the dead body to check, and said with a chuckle, "It's just that I come here by chance to come across such a wonderful impossible crime!"

"Impossible to commit a crime?"

"Isn't it interesting that all the possible criminals have absolute alibi?"

Shi Jinjunzai glanced at Gao Cheng as if he hadn't woken up: "Don't worry, I will solve the puzzle and find the murderer."

Everyone was preoccupied and returned to the villa one after another. Only the corpse covered with cloth and Gao Cheng and Yuanzi remained in front of the villa.

Gao Cheng squatted in front of the corpse, inspected the wound of the corpse first, and noticed the corpse's clenched right hand, which seemed to be holding something between its fingers.

"Dry grass?" Turned on the flashlight and looked, only to find that it was just dry grass stalks.

There are many haystacks in the village, and nothing can be seen at all.

As for the time of death, Officer Ezomatsu's judgment was correct, he had indeed been dead for a long time, and was hidden in the snowman by the murderer.

"City, city household,

Yuanzi's hands were red from the cold, "Let's go in first." "

"I want to go back to the annex." Gao Cheng stood up and looked at the annex across the river.

"But didn't the police uncle not allow us to leave?"

"Everyone should go back to the annex to sleep."

...

6 o'clock in the morning, the annex.

Gao Cheng asked Jiang Chuan to back up a video tape for himself, starting from the appearance of Xue Yasha.

"Sure enough," Gao Cheng stared at the screen, his eyes were bloodshot after he hadn't slept much all night, "The self-portrait of Himuro Issei was still in the corridor when the incident happened..."

The monitoring screen was frozen at the moment when Xue Yasha turned around and slashed at the camera, and the self-portrait worth 50 million yuan was placed behind, which was very clear.

But after the incident, the self-portrait was missing...

Sonoko shouted at the door: "Kiroto, Tokitsu Junzai said that he already knew who the murderer was, and asked everyone to gather outside."

"Already know?"

Gao Cheng rubbed his eyes, followed Yuanzi to gather outside the annex in a daze.

Except for Kazusei Himuro, everyone was standing in the snow wearing thick clothes. When Gaocheng came out, he saw Ezomatsu and Tokitsu Junya busy by the cable car next to the villa.

"this is……"

"This is a cable car specially used to transport goods," Junzai Shizuya weighed several bags of snow piled up beside the cable car with a scale, "As you can see, the weight of the cable car is only 30 kilograms, and most people can't sit on it, but we are now You can do an experiment to see how much weight this cable car can actually bear..."

Tokitsu Junya smiled, and together with detective Ezomatsu, began to put snow bags in the cable car: "First, 35 kg...then 38 kg..."

The cable car began to run back and forth under the eyes of everyone, and it took about 10 minutes at a time.

"Next is 40kg..."

Junya Shizuya pulled the switch, and the cable car left slowly. Halfway through, the rope snapped suddenly, and all the snow bags fell into the back glacier below. However, Shijin was not annoyed, but laughed instead.

"It seems that 38 kg is acceptable, but 40 kg is not. Only one person is eligible."

"What do you mean?" Gao Cheng frowned.

"I almost forgot you weren't there just now," Junzai Shizuya said with a smile, "I'll say it again, the prisoner actually discussed with Kano Rie and the photographer Akashi in advance to shoot a video that will shock you, you guys When I saw Rie Kanar being killed on the monitor, she was still alive, but someone deliberately changed the broadcast to a good video..."

"Kana Rie was still alive at that time?"

"That's right, in fact, Rie Kanar was killed within 20 minutes of our going from the annex to the main building. The murderer took a shortcut on our way to the main building, crossed the back glacier, and returned to the annex after the murder .”

Shijin's eyes fell on the petite Lingxiang: "Miss Lingxiang who stayed in the annex with Daishi Himuro because she was not feeling well at that time, you just saw that everyone took the cable car when they left, and you can go back and forth within 20 minutes." Killing is more than enough.”

"Me?" Lingxiang stood in the snow in a daze.

"Miss Lingxiang," Ezomatsu walked up to Lingxiang with a serious expression, "Can you measure your weight here? As long as you weigh more than 38 kilograms, it means that you are not the murderer."

"I, I..." Lingxiang looked at everyone's eyes in a daze.

"What's the matter?" Shi Jinjun said with a light smile, "Or you dare not measure it? Also, it's normal for a star like you to be thinner than the average person."

"Lingxiang..." The director and others looked at Lingxiang with strange eyes.

"Lingxiang, even if you and Kana don't deal with each other, you can't kill people, even Akashi..."

"It's not me!" Lingxiang took a few steps back in fear under the eyes of everyone, and turned around as if in shock with tears in her eyes, "I didn't kill anyone!"

"stop!"

"Don't let her get away!"

"Tch, she looks cute on the outside, but she's a devil inside!"

A group of people followed Ezomatsu and chased into the annex, leaving Gaocheng and Sonoko with complicated expressions behind.

"Is Lingxiang really the murderer?" Yuanzi asked worriedly.

"Something's wrong."

Gao Cheng looked at the cable car again: "It's not that simple."
