The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 184 Analysis of the Case

"Have you investigated the relationship between these people and the victim?"

Hakubamatsu asked Officer Megure.

"Um, this..."

Inspector Megure was a little stiff. They still hadn't asked this question.

"I know this."

Sato Miwako suddenly said.

After hearing this, Bai Masong gave her a puzzled look.

Didn't you just come here today? How do you know?

"Because before class started, Detective Maori brought up a topic, and then everyone started arguing about Uemori Michi."

Miwako Sato explained.

Bai Masong nodded and motioned for her to continue.

So, Sato Miwako summarized all the previous information.

"Among these four people, Ms. Komiyayama Yuko had her recipe stolen by Uemori Michi, who had been working on it for many years. She may have some resentment towards her."

"Ms. Kamimori Kaoru is often ordered around by Kamimori Michi, and there is a possibility that she has been subjected to domestic violence."

"Mr. Nishitani Hiroaki has been sponsored by Uemori Yoshitomo, while Ms. Yashiro Kazueda has been dissatisfied with Uemori Yoshitomo for many years."

After listening to Miwako Sato's words, Officer Megure thought for a moment and said,

"So it seems that the people with the greatest motives are Ms. Komiyayama Yuko, whose recipes were stolen, and Ms. Kamimori Kaoru, who may have been subjected to domestic violence?"

Inspector Megure's words made Yuko Komiyama and Kaoru Kamimori suddenly nervous.

Komiyama Yuko said hurriedly,

"No, no, how could we possibly stab the teacher?"

Officer Megure was about to refute and appease her, but he heard Kamimori Kaoru yell,

"Nonsense!"

Kaoru Kamimori rushed to Inspector Megure and Hakuba Matsu and said,

"Do you think Yuko and I are the only ones with motives?"

"I'm telling you, if we investigate, everyone here is guilty!"

As she spoke, she pointed at Yashiro Kazue and Nishitani Hiroaki one by one.

"Yashiro Kazue, this woman claims to be a long-time friend of my mother-in-law, but in fact, she has always been brooding over the fact that my mother-in-law stole her boyfriend 27 years ago!"

"Yes, her boyfriend is my current father-in-law, and she is willing to come here to see my father-in-law."

"And Nishitani Hiroaki. Yes, although he has been receiving financial support from my mother-in-law, she has now found someone better than him. He will never have to worry about being the head chef again!"

Kamimori Kaoru's revelations of all kinds suddenly brought everyone back to square one in terms of relationship analysis.

Bai Masong looked at it and couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart.

This woman is so amazing. She turned a choice between two into a choice between four in an instant.

Thinking about this, Bai Masong said to Officer Megure calmly,

"Don't worry about their motives or anything like that right now, officer."

"Let's get back to the basic question - how was Michi Kamimori stabbed?"

"How did you get stabbed?"

Officer Memu was stunned.

Maori Kogoro next to him reacted immediately.

"That's right, Officer Megure, our top priority right now is to find the murder weapon!"

"Hmm~"

Inspector Megure nodded, indicating that what he said made sense.

Then, Inspector Megure asked Komiyama Yuko, who was Uemori Michi's assistant,

"Ms. Yuko, is there anything like an ice pick in this room?"

"Ah, yes, yes."

Komiyama Yuko quickly replied,

"In the second drawer to the right of the microwave."

After hearing what Komiyayama Yuko said, Hakuba Song walked to the drawer and opened it.

Inside the drawer, there was an iron rod of unknown use, and one end of the rod was also sharp.

"Officer Megure."

Bai Masong took out the iron rod and showed it to everyone.

"I see!"

Maori Kogoro seemed to understand something and said,

"This iron rod can also be used to assassinate Mr. Uemori Michi!"

"Ms. Yuko,"

Inspector Megure asked Komiyama Yuko,

"Excuse me, how many iron rods do you have in total?"

Komiyama Yuko recalled and said affirmatively,

"Ten. There are ten iron rods in total."

"what?!"

Officer Megure opened his eyes wide and counted carefully again.

"But, I only have nine iron rods in my hand now!"

"impossible!"

Komiyama Yuko shouted hurriedly,

"I counted the number of iron bars yesterday. There must be ten!"

Inspector Megure looked at the iron rod with a serious expression, while Kogoro Mori had an expression that showed he understood everything.

"it is good!"

Maori Kogoro said confidently,

"Inspector Megure, this iron rod must be the murder weapon used by the murderer to kill Teacher Michiko Uemori!"

"But how can this iron rod penetrate Ms. Mori Michi's back?"

Inspector Megure raised a question.

"This iron rod has no handle, so it's hard to hold. It's really not very convenient to hold it."

"Um, well..."

Maori Kogoro was a little dazed, and then said,

"How about we search their belongings?"

"Maori brother!"

Inspector Megure was a little dissatisfied. It seems that you haven't thought of anything yet!

At this time, Bai Masong said lightly,

"Detective Mori, Officer Megure, we don't have to rush to find the murder weapon."

"Because we don't know the size of the murder weapon, it's really inconvenient to look for it now."

After hearing what Hakubamatsu said, Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori were a little confused. Didn’t you just ask us to find the murder weapon?

Looking at the two of them, Bai Masong was speechless. When did I ask you to find the murder weapon?

My original words were – How was Michi Kamimori stabbed?

Alas, the qualifications of these two people are really stupid!

Faced with the doubts of the two, Bai Masong had to explain,

"What I mean is, how did the murderer accurately find Ms. Uemori Michi in the pitch black and then assassinate her?"

"You know, people are adaptable to their senses. When a person goes from a bright environment to a dark environment, they also need to adapt."

"If the murderer was one of the people who stayed in the kitchen the whole time, then he had to adapt to the process of going from light to darkness."

"How did he do that?"

After Hakubamatsu finished speaking, his words shocked Inspector Megure and Mouri Kogoro.

Indeed, why didn’t they think of this problem?

How did the murderer adapt to the problem of light?

“That’s the problem we’re trying to solve right now.”

Bai Ma Song continued,

"As for the murder weapon, it would be better to wait until the hospital tells us the exact size before searching."

"Well, that makes sense."

Inspector Megure nodded again and again.

The reason why he was able to become the head of the third department was, if nothing else, because he listened to advice.
