Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 650 Worse Than Death

In the study room, Oping stared at the corner of his eyes, with a look of despair on his sweaty face.

The originally messy books were stacked neatly on the trolley, and the old man sat on the books facing the door, but a rope hanging from the chandelier was wrapped around his neck, and he was holding a large vase with his hands behind his back.

There are also some books lined up from the cart wheels to the door, and the last large-format book is against the door.

Sweat dripped from the old man's gray eyebrows, and his hands holding the vase kept trembling, his entire palms were wet with sweat.

Death turned out to be such a terrible thing.

"You won't succeed..."

The old man gritted his teeth and stared at the door of the house, maintaining his balance and not daring to move.

Because once he loses his balance and makes the pile of books fall, he will be hung up directly, and he will definitely die at that time...

But even if he persisted like this, he wouldn't be able to last long. As long as someone came and pushed the door open, the result would be the same. That nasty guy should be waiting outside.

no time...

He couldn't even let go, and if the vase broke, someone would come right away, and the loop joint was glued, and he didn't have time to undo it before the guy pushed the door.

That guy did it on purpose, no matter what, he's dead, and he can't even ask for help...

Feeling that the strength in his hand was gradually fading and he couldn't hold the vase, the old man bit his lip fiercely, breathing rapidly and letting blood drip on a book under his feet.

It was "The Murderer from the Underworld", one of the Zuowen series by Xinming Xiangbaoli. It was only after reading this book that the old man paid attention to the real Zuowen detective, and he is also the famous Gao Cheng recently.

"Da da."

The blood drops gradually stained red the word "Yellow Spring" on the cover, and left two horizontal lines in the blank space below...

"Hehe," the old man's face was filled with fear and pleasure of revenge, "Detective Chenghu will definitely help me avenge..."

"Bang!" Suddenly, a loud cracking sound spread through Opin's house, like thunder in the sound of rain, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Yongzi asked in surprise,

"This voice..."

"It came from the master's study room. Could it be the vase that the master has always treasured?"

"I'll take a look!" The maid with a paralyzed face left voluntarily.

"Study?" The scene of the study during the conversation emerged in Gao Cheng's mind, and there was indeed a decorative vase inside.

Seeing the maid rushing to the study, Gao Cheng hastily followed.

"master!"

"Master, what happened?"

Outside the study, the maid and the housekeeper knocked on the door. After receiving no response, the maid reached for the doorknob, but was suddenly grabbed by a hand behind her.

"What are you doing?" The maid tried her best but couldn't break free. Turning around, she found that it was Gao Cheng who stopped her.

"That's it, don't move anymore."

Regardless of the maid's violent struggle, Gao Cheng stopped the maid and the housekeeper behind.

"Everyone is not allowed to come near here now..."

"Is it Detective Kido? Don't open the door! Don't open the door!!" In the study, Okinako held the rope around his neck with both hands. After hearing Gao Cheng's voice, his whole face was covered with tears, like a child began to cry.

"The only one I can trust is you, Detective Kido! Woohoo..."

...

The sky in Tokyo was overcast and it was raining all afternoon.

Under the curious gaze of passers-by holding umbrellas, several police cars parked in front of Okping's house, and Megure and Takagi walked quickly into the house against the rain.

Okping Kozo had been rescued by the firefighters, and he was still holding on to Gao Cheng when he walked out of the study.

When I get old, even my family members can't believe it, which is really embarrassing.

Gao Cheng watched the old man who had completely lost his prestige before being sent to the ambulance, and turned his gaze to the maid who was controlled by the police.

According to the old man's testimonial, the maid was the one who committed the attempted murder, but even though the incident happened, the maid's round, fat face still showed no expression, and the fat aunt herself didn't look like the murderer.

"Mrs. Tiandua..." Mrs. Yongzi still looked at the silent maid in disbelief.

How cold-blooded and cruel is it to arrange such an institution in the study?

If he hadn't been stopped in the end, the old man would have died unjustly like this...

Just by looking at it, one can feel the mental torture the old man suffered before he was rescued.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Gao Cheng who was checking the scene with Mu Mu.

"Detective Kido, how do you know you can't open the door?"

"I'm just guessing, so I should be more cautious..."

Gao Cheng picked up the blood-stained book.

"The Murderer from Dusk", he also has this book, and it is still a sample book given by the university hall.

"In the case of the tragic death of Master Duanwu a year ago, although there is no evidence, there are still doubts pointing to Mrs. Tianbata."

"Is it because Mrs. Tabata was the first to discover the young master?" The housekeeper was stunned, "But Mrs. Tabata used to clean the swimming pool..."

"That's the problem. If it's not an outsider who committed the crime, it means someone used some method to create an alibi..."

Gao Cheng explained to the police officer Mu Mu who was still puzzled by everyone: "Everyone had an alibi on the day of the incident, and it was an alibi that they were all together, so the only way to do something is to start with Master Duanwu. , use some kind of method to delay the time of Master Dianwu's death, so of course it is necessary to act as the first person to find out, so as not to leave any clues..."

"Delay the time of death?" Everyone looked thoughtful.

"Accurately speaking, it should be to set the time of death, so that Master Zuiwu was deliberately killed during the time when everyone was watching the video. Mrs. Tabata probably knew in advance that the video would take 5 hours to watch, that is, from 7:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m., so long The time is enough anyway."

Mu Mu stared at Gao Cheng in a daze: "I also know about the incident a year ago. At that time, the estimated time of death was 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. But how can we delay the time of death?"

"It's very simple..."

Gao Cheng said with a smile: "Didn't Mrs. Tabata use a similar method to Mr. Opin this time?"

"That vase?" Mu Mu asked in surprise.

"Ms. Tabata prepared coffee in advance, and after Mr. Opin said he wanted to drink coffee, she actually brought it right away, and added sleeping pills to it..."

Gao Cheng looked at the silent maid Tian Bata.

"Then set up the scene, wake up Mr. Opin and let him grab the vase with his backhand, and probably threatened Mr. Opin...

"After the technique was completed, Mrs. Tabata went out to buy some milk for coffee under the pretext that if someone went to the study at this time, Mr. Opin would be killed immediately, but Mrs. Eiko didn't want to go to the study at all, and Mr. Butler was also thinking about it." Maintaining the car in the garage, I don’t know if this is what Mrs. Tabata expected, but..."

Gao Cheng looked at the maid again who looked like a simple and honest aunt.

"Anyway, Mrs. Tabata's alibi is available. If she really opened the door and rushed in just now, she could take advantage of the chaos and destroy the scene, making Mr. Opin look more like suicide..."

Mu Mu followed to look at the maid, even though she saw too many murders, she still felt a little scary: "That year ago..."

"I didn't think of it until I went down to the bottom of the pool and found the waterline," Gao Cheng explained. "The location of the waterline is neither high nor low. If Master Duanwu stands on tiptoe, his nose should be able to stick out of the water. At the last moment, Master Duanwu probably It was like this for more than 2 hours, until I had no strength...

"After the body loses strength, the muscles will become very heavy. It is impossible to float, and there is basically no possibility of survival..."

"It's so cruel..." Hondo Eisuke narrowed his gaze.

If you think about it, you can know the final despair of the victim. No matter what, you can't survive for 5 hours. Wait until the family members watch the video, right?

Both hands and feet were tied, and mouth was sealed with tape. I could only stand on tiptoes to let my nose out of the water, waiting for a slim chance of life. I kept struggling until I died...

It was so cruel that it made people feel chills in the back. This kind of thing was actually done by a maid with a dull appearance.
